SUBJECT: Dare County Justice Center Wetland Enhancement Project, Dare County,
North Carolina
Please find attached the Pre-Construction Notification (I'CN) Application Form for
the referenced project. Dare County has proposed a wetland enhancement project within
the Dare County Justice Center property in Manteo, North Carolina. This project is located.
near the intersection of US Highway 64 and US Highway 264 Business. The anticipated let
date for this project is July 2007.
INTRODUCTION
The proposed wetland enhancement area, located immediately south and east of the
existing Dare County Government Complex, will serve to beautify an open space portion of
the Dare County Justice Center property, provide educational opportunities, and improve
water quality and ecology by restoring some wetland functions. The proposed area involves
approximately 1.7 acres between the future administrative building and US 64 Bypass in
Manteo, North Carolina. The project site currently is undeveloped land consisting of two
borrow pits (filled with water) and cleared land. There are no structures on the location of
the proposed wetland enhancement area.
ENHANCEMENT
A major component to this ecological enhancement project will be the site grading to
more accurately reflect the presumed original hydrology on the property. This will involve
the partial filling of both existing borrow pits, as well as, minor grading throughout. The
borrow pits on-site were created to supply dirt at some unknown location and have no
hydrologic surface connection to each other. The borrow pit nearest US 64 is connected to
a large ditch south of the project area on the opposite side of the US 64 by two 36" pipes.
This pipe has been placed nearly level such that the borrow pit nearest US 64 is fed by the
ditch and is therefore tidally influenced. To avoid complications with brackish/tidal waters
this borrow pit will be kept separate from the main portion of the wetland enhancement
area. This will be achieved by the construction of an earthen berm approximately 3 feet tall
and 10 feet wide stretching from the edge of the subject property to the proposed
stormwater pond. This berm will be set back approximately 10 feet from the normal edge of
water from this pond, Pond #1. Pond #1 will be filled with soil to shallow the water levels
and contours will be graded to make this area appear more natural. There will be earthen

shelves within this area and these shallower shelves will be planted with appropriate salt-
tolerate species. The outfall of the stormwater pond will occur immediately between the
proposed stormwater pond and the existing Pond #1, through use of a 36" pipe with a
headwall structure. To allow surface water drainage witlvn the wetland enhancement area a
small retention pond is proposed on the wetland side of the berm. A riser pipe will be
installed witlvn this retention area with an 18" pipe outfall into Pond #1 (brackish water
pond). The pipe will be set below the berm and will have a rubberized or other non-
corrosive flap at the end. This flap will allow waters from the retention area into Pond #1,
but will not allow waters from Pond #1 into the retention area and wetland enhancement
area. The riser pipe will be set at 1.4 feet above MSL, the outfall pipe will be set at 0.5 feet
above MSL within the wetland retention area, with the outfall set at sea level. Furthermore,
to allow for the construction of this retention area the stormwater pond outfall will need to
be located immediately between the stormwater pond and Pond #1. A headwall will be
constructed around the 36" outfall pipe and the flp rap will encroach into Pond #1
approximately 96 square feet.
The borrow pit (Pond #2) that will be manipulated measures approximately 16 feet
deep (at its deepest point), and appears to be fed by groundwater, precipitation, and minor
surface sheet flow during heavy rains. This proposal will shallow this pond to a maximum
depth of four feet, enabling wetland vegetation to establish, providing a more beneficial area
for wildlife. Off-site organic soil material will likely be needed to fill these borrow ponds.
Beyond the borrow pits, minor grading will be conducted throughout the 1.7-acre site to
assist in the establishment of vegetative communities endemic to Dare County. This will be
working towards the restoration of what may have naturally occurred on this site prior to
human disturbance. The pipes that drain this borrow pit flow south under US 64 into a
tidally influenced ditch surrounded by an undisturbed bottomland bay forest community.
This project will not involve the creation of a stream channel on the project site. More
detailed grading information is included in the attached site design plans. It should be noted
that no stoiYnwater from the Justice Center, future Administrative Building, or their parking
facilities is anticipated to enter this wetland area.
At the completion of the grading, preparing the site for planting will be required to
ensure a greater level of survivability of the plants. Mulkey biologists sampled the existing
soils on the project site and sent these samples to the NCDA sol testing laboratory to
detel7nine whether there would be a need for soil amendments. These soil samples were
taken at two locations (one in the eastern portion and one in the western portion of the
project site) along a single transect across the site. Tlie contracted landscaper, Sadler
Landscaping, has recommended that one ton of gypsum/acre be disked into the soil, only in
' the eastern half of the project site. This recommendation follows information received from
the North Carolina Department of Agriculture (NCDA) laboratory from soil samples taken
within the project site, which shows elevated concentrations of salts in these soils. The
gypsum will work to bind these salt ions in an ineffective state. The NCDA soil analysis
showed fairly normal conditions of salts in the western half of the project site; therefore, Mr.
Sadler did not recommend the amendment of soil with gypsum in this area. After the
amendments to the soil are disked in, a cover seeding will be spread across the project site to
help avoid erosion and maintain the desired ground elevations achieved during the grading
process. All state and local soil and erosion control best management practices will be
followed during the construction of this project.
REFERENCE WETLANDS
Two natural reference wetland sites were studied to assist in the selection of the
vegetative communities. The primacy reference site is located on the opposite of US 64,
south of the project site. THis bottomland bay forest community serves as a good wetland
reference location illustrating Historic natural communities disconnected by the construction
of US 64 and development of Dare County. A transect consisting of three sampling sites
was traversed approximately 500 feet from and running parallel to US 64. This forested
wetland system is dominated by loblolly pine (Pinus taeda), witl~ pond pine (Pinus serotina),
bald cypress (Taxodium distichum) scattered throughout. The mid- and under-stories are
generally thick in areas that are not permanently flooded. The vegetation within this mid-
and understory includes, red bay (Persea palustris), red maple (Acer rubrum), water oak (Quercus
nigra), and sweet bay (Magnolia virginiana), with smaller shrubs such as inkberiy (Ilexglabra),
sweet gallberry (Ilex coriacea), wax myrtle (Myrica cerifera), swamp rose (Rosa palustris), and
fetterbush (Lyonia lucida). Vines and herbaceous vegetation present throughout this wetland
system include greenbriar (Smilax rotundifolia), and laurel-leaved greenbriar (S. laurifolia),
cinnamon fern (Osmunda cinnamomea), silverling (Baccl~aris halimifolia), and poison ivy
(Toxicodendron radicans). Elevations within this transect were determined using traditional
stu-vey techniques (i. e. Total Station), and were found to be approximately 1.5 feet above
MSL. The soils were investigated and found to have a two inch thick A-horizon with a
Mansell color of 10YR 3/4, and a B-horizon deeper than twelve inches below the soil
surface with a Mansell color of 2.5YR 2/1. The entire soil solt,m investigated was
determined to be a sandy loam and roots were observed throughout. These elevation and
soil conditions are similar the existing conditions within the proposed wetland enhancement
axea.
The other reference wetland is located directly behind the existing Dare County
Courthouse. A transect consisting of two sampling sites was traversed approximately 1,000
feet from and n,nning parallel to US 64. This forested wetland was not as mature as die
other reference site; however, it contained much more surface water and as a result
contained small areas of marsh. These marsh areas were dominated by bulrush (Juncos
~usus), with sedges (Carex .rpp. and Cyperus .rpp.) and cat-tail (Typl~a latifolia) scattered
throughout. The forested wetland areas were primarily dominated by red maple and loblolly
pine, wide the understoiy containing primarily wax myrtle. Other vegetation present
includes silverling, red bay, blackberry (13ubus argutus), swamp rose, and poison ivy. The
hydric soils widen dais transect are similar to those observed in the first reference wetland;
however, there is little to no A-horizon. This transect is most useful for assisting witlz the
design of the freshwater marsh area witlvn the proposed wetland enhancement project.
VEGETATION
Three different wetland vegetative communities are proposed for this area to serve
as a demonstration for some of the different types of wetland systems located in Dare
County and specifically on Roanoke Island; freshwater marsh, bottomland bay forest and
brackish marsh.
The freshwater marsh is proposed to be located immediately south of the future
administrative building. The marsh area will be constructed such that the standing water will
be a maximum of approximately 4 feet deep near the center, grading upwards toward the
adjacent vegetative communities. Overtime this should result in the central portion of the
marsh developing a deep layer of muck, further supporting the small microorganisms that
will be the basis of the food chain within this wetland. To encourage larger birds present
within Roanoke Island area to this wetland enhancement area, a large nesting platform is
proposed to be constructed along the edge of the freshwater marsh. It should be
mentioned, that this area will be considered a freshwater marsh due to the lack of a direct
saltwater connection; however, over time the potential exists for this area to witness
increased salinity levels from various sources. However, the most likely source of brackish
waters entering the freshwater marsh system would come from a connection with the tidal
waters within the borrow pit nearest US 64, which could occur during a significant flooding
event. The chances of this potential situation have been reduced by construction of the
wetland flood waters retention area. The water that will support this wetland will be
supplied primaitily by precipitation and groundwater.
This freshwater marsh will contain herbaceous species such as rush, sedges, arrow-
arum (Peltandra virginiana), and rose mallow (Hibi.rcu.r mo.rcheutu.r). The installation of these
herbaceous species is proposed to be achieved by using an existing seed mixture available
from several vendors along the east coast. Small shrubs such as buttonbush (Cephalanthu.r
occidentali.r) and swamp rose will be planted along the shallower edge of the proposed marsh.
The freshwater marsh area will drain into a bottomland bay forest system that will
attempt to mimic the wetland forest on the opposite side of US 64 from the project site.
Tlv wetland system will be vegetated with appropriate bottomland bay forest vegetation and
will contain ephemeral depressional areas. Though titled bottomland bay forest wetland this
area will be a mixture of a bottomland Hardwood, bay forest, and a Coastal Plain small
stream swamp, as described in Schafale and Weakley's "Classification of the Natural
Communities of North Carolina" (DENR, 1990). Tlie soils witlvn this wetland will remain
saturated nearly year round with little standing water except in depressional areas specifically
installed to capture and hold excess water during and immediately following rain events.
These ephemeral depressions are expected to maintain a water depth of approximately 6 to
12 inches during the winter months and will therefore, support a somewhat different flora
than the surrounding bottomland hardwood system. Due to their small size (<0.1 acre) and
location these ephemeral depressions will be included into the description of the bottomland
bay forest wetland. It should be noted, that due to the risk from the spread of the invasive
common reed (Phragmite.r au.rtrali.r), chemical treatment of the freshwater marsh area may
need to be conducted in the future.
Species proposed to be planted widen this bottomland bay forest system include
large woody species such as loblolly pine, pond pine, water oak (Quercu.r nigra), red bay, red
maple, and sweet bay, with smaller shrubs such as inkbexry, sweet gallbeny, and fetterbush.
Species widen the depressional areas and the drainage Swale are typically smaller herbaceous
ox shrubby species more adapt to deal with the permanent saturated and/or flooded
conditions. These species include jack-in-the-pulpit (Ari.raema triphyllum), lizards tail (Saururu.r
cernuu.r), and ferns such as the netted chain fern (i~oodavardia aerolata), cinnamon fern,
sensitive fern (Onoclea .rensibili.r), and die royal fern (O.r~~aunda regali.r).
Widen the area currently occupied by Pond #1, species more adapted to brackish
water conditions will be planted due to the connection with the tidally influenced ditch on
the south of US 64. Species within dlis proposed area will consist of non-woody plants that
can endure long inundated hydroperoids. These species will include rose mallow, salt
meadow cordgrass (Spaatinapatera.r), saltgrass (Di.rtichli.r .r~icata), and sawgrass (Cladiu~n mari.rcus
jamaicen.re).
In addition, to the three proposed wetland vegetative communities, an area of upland
located on the western side of the project site will contain apine-flatwood community.
Somewhat more facultative species such as longleaf pine, loblolly pine, witegrass (Ari.rtida
.rtricta), and braken fern (Pteridiu~n aguilinum) are proposed to be planted in this area. Pine-
flatwood systems are generally very open almost savanna-like ecosystems crucial for many
animal species that requite an adjacent upland community food nesting and foraging. No
grading and little site preparation will be required for this vegetative community.
Planting density for hardwood and needle leaved species will be 680 (8-foot centers)
stems per acre. Proportions of specific species to be planted will be based on availability at
time of installation. The size of the plants during installation is important; a minimum of
one-gallon containers should be used when acquiring all plants from a nursery. An
exception to this will be ifbare-root or containerized trees are purchased from the Nortli
Carolina Division of Forest Resources (NCDFR). The plant material layout should resemble
a random and natural placement of plants rather than a standard landscaped approach with
trees and shrubs in rows. Consideration for microtopography, soil series unit, and spatial
diversity for wildlife habitat will be used in clustering trees and the mixture of species across
tl7e project study area. The exact spacing between trees will vary due to tl~e spatially random
arrangement of the plants installed. In addition, natural seeding from existing native woody
vine, slv-ub, and tree species from adjacent areas is expected to occur to fiutlier speed the
rate of enhancement.
WATER RESOURCES
The project is located in Pasquotank River subbasin 03-01-51 and USGS 8-digit
hydrologic unit 03020105. No streams are located witlvn the project area; however, there
are two 36" pipes beneath US Highway 64 which hydrologically connects the borrow pit
nearest US 64 to a large ditch and associated wetlands on the opposite side of the highway to
the south. This ditch eventually drains into tributaries and ditches which likely empty
toward the Croatan Sound; however, due to the hydrologic nature of Roanoke Island it is
difficult to be totally confident that some of these waters will not drain towaa-ds the Roanoke
Sound. Surface water resources in the vicinity of the subject property include Shallowbag
Bay (Class SC waters) to the north, the Roanoke River (Class SC waters) to the east, and
Croatan Sound (Class SA waters) to the south and west. There are three areas of 303 (d)
waters in die vicinity of the project study area, dze Roanoke Sound from Shallowbag Bay to
Johns Creek approximately 1.5 miles east of the project area, Sandbeach Creek
approximately 1.5 miles southeast of tl~e project area, and dze Roanoke Sound at Mill
Landing approximately 1.5 miles south of the project area. '
The existing jm-isdicdonal wetlands on this property were significantly disturbed in
the past by extensive clearing and placement of mulch throughout. These areas are best
classified as bottomland bay forest wetlands as tlley were once part of the bottomland bay
forest wetland system located to the south bisected by US 64, according to historic aerial
photography. The National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) classification is palustrine saturated
forest (I'FO). This proposed wetland enhancement project will increase the wetland acreage
on the site from 1.12 acres to 1.48 acres. The specific impact numbers are shown in the
attached Pre-Construction Notification and depicted on the permit design drawings.
PROTECTED SPECIES
Federal law requires that any federal action likely to adversely affect a species listed
as federally protected be subject to review by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) or
National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) (under the provisions of Section 7 of the
Endangered Species Act [ESA] of 1973, as amended). Prohibited actions which may affect
any species protected under the ESA are outlined in Section 9 of the Act. Other species may
receive additional protection under separate laws such as the Lacey Act Amendments of
1981, the Migratory Bird Treaty of 1999, the Marine Mammal Protection Act of 1972, or the
Eagle Protection Act of 1940. North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) maps
were reviewed in May 2005.
The Maxch 9, 2006 USFWS list of federally protected species for Dare County,
North Carolina lists eight Endangered species, five Threatened species, and one Threatened
due to a similarity of appearance (T S/A). Theproject site consists of cleared land, primarily
wetland, with two small borrow ponds and a few young loblolly pine trees throughout. The
subject property contains suitable habitat for only tie American alligator (Alligator
~ni.rri.rrippien.ri.r). This suitable habitat is generally located witvn the wetand areas. No
American alligator individuals or evidence of nesting was observed during the field
investigations. A review of NCNHP records in December 2006 revealed no federally or
state listed species within one-mile of the project study area. Therefore, this project will
have no impact on protected species. Table 1 in the Appendix depicts tie federal and state
protected species listed for Dare County and their status.
CONCLUSION
Improving the visual appearance of tie area between the future Administrative
Building and US 64 is an important part of tie total Dare County Justice Center project.
This proposal provides a landscape design that integrates the natural environment into the
design instead of ignoring the natural environment and planting a standard vegetative buffer.
This project will provide educational benefits to the people of Dare County by displaying a
portion of the diverse ecosystems present within the county. But perhaps more importanty,
construction of this proposed wetand enhancement project will provide improved water
quality and wildlife habitat expected from a functional wetland system. Completion of this
phase of tie government complex project will be the final element needed to make the entire
Dare County government complex property whole.
Following your review and concurrence with tze proposed acton, please issue a
NWP 27 tzat will authorize ecological restoration actvities at the Dare County Justice
Center wetand enhancement site. If you have any questions or comments concerning tze
project, please contact Harold Brady at (919) 858-1804. Thank you for your assistance.

Wetland enhancement and creation is proposed within the study area. This will involve
minor ~radin tg ~ou~hout the wetland area and filling of two existing borrow pits to a depth
of open water to approximately 4 to 5 feet. This will result in a significantly shallower and
somewhat smaller area of permanent open water For purposes to further assure success of
the proposed project a wetland flood water retention area will be constructed on an upland
portion of the subject property. This structure will be divided from the more salt water areas
b_y an earthen berm aild will serve to drain excess water from the wetland enhancement site
while protecting the proposed site from brackish water intrusion. The entire wetland area
(except for the deepest areas of open water) will then be planted with native vegetation.
Standard construction equipment including an excavator and a dump truck will be used to
grade the site.

VI. Proposed Impacts to Waters of the United States/Waters of the State
It is the applicant's (or agent's) responsibility to detern~ine, delineate and map all impacts to
wetlands, open water, and stream channels associated with the project. Each impact must be
listed separately in the tables below (e.g., culvert installation should be listed separately from
riprap dissipater pads). Be sure to indicate if an' impact is temporary. All proposed impacts,
permanent and temporary, must be listed, and must be labeled and clearly identifiable on an
accompanying site plan. All wetlands and waters, and all streams (intermittent and pereruzial)
should be shown on a delineation map, whether or not impacts are proposed to these systems.
Wetland and stream evaluation and delineation forms should be included as appropriate.
Photographs may be included at the applicant's discretion. If this proposed impact is strictly for
wetland or stream mitigation, list and describe the impact in Section VIII below. If additional
space is needed for listing or description, please attach a separate sheet.
1. Provide a written description of the proposed impacts:
These proposed wetland enhancement activities will involve the disturbance of 1.36 acres of
jurisdictional wetlands. All disturbed wetland areas will remain jurisdictional, except for 1220
square feet of fill along Pond #1 that will constitute an earthen berm. Once constructed this area
will no longer demonstrate the three parameters required for jurisdictional wetlands.
2. Individually list wetland impacts. Types of impacts include, but are not limited to
mechanized clearing, grading, fill, excavation, flooding, ditching/drainage, etc. For dams,
separately list impacts due to both structure and flooding.

VII. Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization)
Specifically describe measures taken to avoid the proposed impacts. It inay be useful to provide
information related to site constraints such as topography, building ordinances, accessibility, and
~- financial viability of the project. The applicant may attach drawings of alternative, lower-impact
site layouts, and explain why these design options were not feasible. Also discuss how impacts
- were minimized once the desired site plan was developed. If applicable, discuss construction
techniques to be followed during construction to reduce impacts.
This proposed wetland enhancement project will in~rove an area of wetlands in which the
~pearance and functions have been severely impacted due to human manipulation over many
years. The lame borrow pit in the center of the site is filled with water and serves little
ecological purpose The wetlands surrounding the borrow pit were heavily mulched several
., ergo and have been cleared recently. Two wetland ve~;etative communities are proposed to
be established in the areas of existing wetlands, freshwater marsh and bay forest. Not only will
these will be used for educational opportunities, but will serve to beautify an area that is vacant
and considered aneye-sore by many. The wetland enhancement area is proposed to increase the
wetland acreage on the site from 1.36 acres to 1.74 acres.
VIII. Mitigation
DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0500, mitigation inay be required by the NC
Division of Water Quality for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to
freshwater wetlands or greater than or equal to 1.50 linear feet of total impacts to perennial
streams.
USACE - In accordance with the Final Notice of Issuance and Modification of Nationwide
Permits, published in the Federal Register on January 15, 2002, mitigation will be required when
necessary to ensure that adverse effects to the aquatic environment are minimal. Factors

I. Introduction
A. Is a permit required for this project? ES / NO
B. Type of Mitigation (circle): Restoration / Creatio / nhancemen /Preservation
This proposed project is not acting as a mitigation measure to compensate for any impacts
to Waters of the United States.
C. Identify Wetland Community Type (Shafale and Weakley): Bottomland Bay Forest and
Freshwater Marsh
D. Will Threatened or Endangered Species or designated
Critical Habitats be impacted? YES / ~O
E. Do any Cultural Resource issues exist on the site? YES / ~O
F. Do any Haz/Tox issues exist on the site? YES / ~O
There is a known LUST site adjacent to the wetland enhancement area that is currently being
monitored.
G. Has a wetland determination been undertaken. and verified? ES / NO Signed JD Attached
This project is meant to improve the appearance and restore some wetland functions to a historically
impacted wetland.
II. Foundation of the Mitigation Plan
A. Describe GOALS: This Rroposed wetland enhancement project will improve an area
of wetlands in which the appearance and functions have been severely impacted due to
human manipulation over many years The two lame borrow pits within the project site
are filled with water and serve little ecolo ig cal purpose. The wetlands surrounding the
borrow pits were heavily mulched several years ado and have been recently cleared.
Three wetland vegetative communities are proposed to be established in the areas of
existing ron-vegetated wetlands freshwater marsh bottomland bay forest, and brackish
marsh Not only will these will be used for educational opportunities, but will serve to
beautify an area that is vacant and considered an eve-sore by many. The wetland
enhancement/creation area is proposed to increase the wetland acreage on the site from
1.12 acres to 1.48 acres.
B. List Target FUNCTIONS:
a) Restore the areas currently occupied by the borrow pits to a functioning wetland
system that fills with water and dries with the natural fluctuations of the water table.
b) Replant the entire wetland enhancement area with appropriate wetland plant species.
c) Restore the presence of hvdric soils within the first twelve inches of the soil profile in
a few small spots that currently do not demonstrate hvdric soil characteristics. This
will be achieved by minor rg adin~ as described in the permit application and cover
letter Due to the water table's presence within 2 feet of the soil surface near round,
wetland hydrolog. i~ expected to be achieved naturally.
Are these Specific/Measurable/Attainable/Reasonable/Trackable? 0 / NO
C. Vegetation
1. Was a Reference Ecosystem (RE) report prepared? 0 / NO
Describe comparison between the RE and the Mitigation Site: The reference wetland ecosystem is
located directly across US 64 from the proposed wetland enhancement area. This area was
historically connected to the land involved in the wetland enhancement prior the construction of the
US 64 Manteo bypass and likely appeared similar to the reference wetland before man-made impacts.
Elevation data was taken within the reference site along the study transect through use of traditional
survey techniques and found this area to be between 1.4 and 1.7 feet above MSL. This closely
~.proximates the elevations existing and proposed within the wetland enhancement area, with the
elevations within the proposed wetland enhancement area averaging 0.5 feet higher. Examination of
soil profiles within both sites both approximately match each other as expected. Additional
information concerning the reference wetland site is included within the attached PCN cover letter.
2. Are plantings listed to species? ES / NO
3. Are local (200 miles north/south) propa les to be planted
and verified by nursery certificate? ES / NO
Sadler Enterprise Inc based in Manteo has been contracted to provide the plantings for the
proposed project.
4. Have diversity and density of species within the Reference
Ecosystem been considered in the plan? ES / NO Attached
5. Has consideration been given to planting the wetland u land
interface with suitable transition zone species? ES / NO Attached
Describe the Planting Quality Control Plan: Vegetation survivability will be monitored during the
five year monitoring_,period The minimum number of stems per acre within the wetland
enhancement area will be 320 If the survivability of the wetland plants on the proposed site drops
below this threshold additional plantings will be required.
D. Soils
1. Have site soils been mapped? ES / NO
Soils on the site have been mapped by the NRCS and published in the Dare County Soil Survey
The soil survey was written by Phillip L. Tant and issued in March 1992.
2. List Soil Series and Textures:
a) Leon fine sand, 0 to 2 percent
3. Are soils types appropriate for the target wetland? ES / NO
Describe: The hydric soils that exist on the~roposed wetland enhancement site are snapped as the
same type as those within the reference wetland. Examination of soil profiles from both sites
confirmed their similarity Additionally these soils are suitable to support the vegetation proposed to
be planted.
4. Fertility sampling undertaken in the RE? (Attach Report) ES / NO
5. Fertility sampling undertaken in the mitigation site? (Attach Report) ES / NO
6. Are the fertility results within the standards for the plantings? ES / NO
Describe results/amendments required: Gypsum has been recommended to be applied within the
eastern half of the project site at a rate of 1 ton/acre. Additionally lime has been recommended to be
applied at the rate of 2 tons/acre across the site.
7. If PC Cropland, has site been evaluated for plow pans, field crowns,
the drainage system? YES / NO Not PC farmland
Describe findings: N/A
8. Is disking proposed after grading and/or prior to planting? ES / NO
Disking will be limited as much as possible and the smallest equipment practicable wil be
implemented to hem avoid potential compaction issues.
9. Is there a grading plan? (Attach) ES / NO
Describe: The rg ading will involve the partial filling of both existing borrow pits, as well as,
minor ~radin~ throughout. The borrow pits measure as deep as approximately 16 feet deep.
Pond #2 appears to be fed b~~roundwater precipitation and minor surface sheet flow during
heavy rains while Pond #1 appears to be primarily fed by tidally influenced waters coming up
a ditch from the Roanoke Sound. This proposal will shallow these ponds to a maximum depth
of three to four feet below MSL (approximately 4 to 5 feet deep from normal ground), enabling
wetland v~etation to establish providing a more beneficial area for wildlife. Off-site organic
soil material will potentially be needed to fill this pond. To avoid complications with
brackish/tidal waters these areas will be kept separate from the main portion ofthe-wetland
enhancement area This will be achieved by the construction of an earthen berm approximately
3 feet tall and 10 feet wide stretching from the edge of the subject property to the proposed
stormwater pond This berm will be set back approximately 10 feet from the normal edge of
water from this pond Pond #1 The outfall of the stormwater pond will occur immediately
between the proposed stornwater pond and the existing Pond #1 through use of a 36" pipe
with a headwall structure. To allow surface water drainage within the wetland enhancement
area a small retention pond is~roposed on the wetland side of the berm. Beyond the borrow
pits minor ~radin~ will be conducted throughout the site to assist in the establishment of
vegetative communities endemic to Dare Coun .This project will not involve the creation of
a stream channel on the project site More detailed grading information is included in the
attached site design plans.
E. Hydrology
Because this enhancement project is not being_performed for the purposes of acquiring
compensatory mitigation credits, no hydrologic modeling has been conducted nor are any
h d~~ic monitoring_gauges proposed to be installed.
1. Was a Water Budget prepared for low, average and high conditions
per WETS data? (Attach Report) YES / ~O
Describe and justify type of water budget model used: N/A
2. List the hydrologic inputs:
Pond #2 is influenced by nrecioitation. groundwater, and stormwater only from the fill slope
associated with west bound US 64 and the small upland area to the west adjacent to the proposed
site. The area occupied by Pond #1 is fed primarily by tidally infouenced waters, but is also
influenced by the same factors as Pond #2 listed above.
3. For groundwater driven systems, will monitoring wells be installed pursuant to the most
recent ERDC Technical Note? YES / ~O
4. For surface water driven systems, will flood gauges be installed? YES / ~O
Describe type/methodology: N/A
5. Were the principles of HGM or other classification system considered? YES / DO
Describe:
6. Will the hydrologic regime predicted by the water budget be appropriate
for the target wetland? YES / NO N/A
Are these Specific/Measurable/Attainable/Reasonable/Trackable? ES / NO
The success of the wetland hydrology on the site will be based upon the success of the
survivability of the vegetation and the devel_pment of hydric soils. The project site currently
meets the requirements for wetland h~oloQV as confirmed by the jurisdictional determination.
The proposed rg adingplan will not result in an~ppreciable changes with the existing hydrolo~y
of the site.
III. Success Criteria
A. Vegetation: A minimum of 320 stems per acre survivability of wetland vegetation within the
proposed wetland enhancement area; counted annually. Areas of permanent inundation (freshwater
and brackish marshes) will not be included in this acreage calculation, since this area will not be
appropriate to support woody ve etg a
B. Hydrology: Wetland hydrolo~y currently exists on-site and none of the proposed activities will
cause a significant change in the hydrolo~y of the site. Therefore, the success of the wetland
hydrology will be based upon the survivability of the vegetation and development of hydric soils.
C. Soils: The presence of hydric soils will be determined visually within pits dui annually within
each of the sample plots. Soil profile information will be discussed in the annual monitoring reports.
Are these Specific/Measurable/Attainable/Reasonable/Traekable? 0 / NO
IV. Monitoring
A. Name and telephone number of person responsible for the success of this project:
Currently Mulkey Engineers & Consultants (contact: Harold Brady~919)858-1804) is under
contract for the design and implementation oversight for the proposed project. Beyond this,
responsibility lies with Dare Count~(contact: Dave Clawson - (252) 475-57312
B. Is there a monitoring plan? ES / NO Discussed below and within the PCN cover letter
1. Describe Vegetation monitoring plan: Two 0.10 acreplots will be established within the
proposed wetland enhancement area. All survivin vegetation will be counted by species and the
total number of stems will be calculated.
2. Describe Hydrology monitoring plan: Survivabili . of vegetation and development of h, dric
soils.
Are these Specific/Measurable/Attainable/Reasonable/Trackable? ES / NO
C. As-Built Report to be submitted within 30 days after project construction? ES / NO
D. Date Annual Monitoring Report to be submitted: The annual monitoring report will be submitted to the
Washington Field Office of the USACE on or before Sept. 31 of each year for five years. The first monitoring
report will occur in 2008.
V. Consideration of Factors of Failure
A. Describe how the following have been considered for this project:
1. Elevations biological benchmarks: Ground elevations will be kept to parameters as depicted in
the rg ading_plan sheet.
2. Provisions for Drainage: The project site will be graded such that surface water will drain
towards the freshwater marsh ephemeral depressions and towards the proposed wetland flood water
retention area which drain through a ape with a flap into Pond # 1. Due to the extremely sandmature
of the soils, the majority of the surface water is anticipated to infiltrate through the soil column and to
the water table.
3. Erosion: Due to the relatively flat nature of the site soil erosion is not anticipated to be an issue.
Vegetation including herbaceous species will be planted to further reduce erosion.
4. Human Impacts: Dare County will provide security for possible vandalism that may occur on
the site, as well as, provide maintainence if dumping occurs. This area will be protected from
development in perpetuity.
5. Noxious species invasion: Phra,gmites australis is the most likely of the noxious species can
may enter the site. If Phra mites appears within the this wetland enhancement area especially in and
around the freshwater marsh chemical treatment will be required to exterminate this species AnX
other noxious species that becomes prevalent within the proposed site will be dealt with by Dare
County accordingly
6. Herbivory: _ _ There are no plans at this time to fence the project area or individual plants after
construction is complete However if issues regarding herbivorv become ap~iarent steps will be taken
to resolve the problem.
B. Are there Contingency Plans built into the proposal to address the above
factors? YES /
No formal plans have been drafted beyond the steps outlined in the above answers.
C. Describe how and when the contingency plan(s) will be implemented:
Contingencesplans will be drafted, reviewed, and implemented if demanded b
conditions determined by success criteria within the annual monitoring reports.
Are these Specific/Measurable/Attainable/Reasonable/Trackable? ES / NO
VI. Site Management
A. Describe Final Disposition of the property: The subject property will remain in the ownership of
Dare County. There will be a conservation easement attached to the deed in perpetuity
B. Who will manage the site after the mitigation effort is deemed successful? Dare County will
continue to mana eg the project site after the project completes the monitoring_peroid.
C. Describe proposed Financial Assurances: Dare County will be responsible for any financial
obligations associated with this proposed wetland enhancement area.
D. Will wetland functions be impacted by current or future land use patterns? YES / ~O
Describe: Andadjacent development will have stormwater controls to preclude any water from
entering this site.
E. Describe how this site rates ecologically: Due to the significant historic man-induced impacts
within the project area including the construction of borrow pits, mulching, and the removal of
vegetation this wetland area rates poorly ecolo ig cally. The proposed project will serve to improve
the wetland functions on the site.

Choose at least 6 wetland grass species for the wetland seed mix.
To ensure success of the wetland grass mix approximately 100 pounds
will need to be spread across the freshwater and brackish marsh areas.
Approximately one-half of the number of plants needed for dZe
freshwater marsh have been included as grass species.
Minimum one-gallon containerized plants used; 3-gallon recoirunended,
except for tree seedlings purchased from the North Carolina Division of
Forest Resources.
Woody vegetation in the freshwater marsh should be planted along the
edges of the freshwater marsh- area.
All plant species should be installed randomly within their respective
vegetative communities, this will avoid the same plants being planted
all together and a lack of diversity.
