Brushy Mountain: Year 3 (2021) Monitoring Summary
General Notes
• No encroachment was identified in Year 3
• No evidence of nuisance animal activity (i.e., beaver, heavy deer browsing, etc.) was observed.
Streams
• Stream monitoring measurements indicate minimal changes in the cross sections as compared to
as -built data. The channel geometry compares favorably with the proposed conditions outlined in
the Detailed Restoration Plan and as constructed.
• Across the Site, all in -stream structures are intact and functioning as designed. No stream areas of
concern were identified during year 3 (2021) monitoring. Tables for year 3 (2021) data and annual
quantitative assessments are included in Appendix C.
• Three bankfull events were documented during year 3 (2021) monitoring for a total of 11 bankfull
events to -date during the monitoring period (Table 16, Appendix D).
• Channel formation was evident in UT 3 and UT 4 in year 3 (2021). The two streamflow gauges and
trail cameras on UT 3 recorded 208 and 144 consecutive streamflow days during year 3 (2021). The
two streamflow gauges and trail cameras on UT 4 recorded 184 and 241 consecutive streamflow
days during year 3 (2021).
• A tributary that was deemed non -jurisdictional during Site permitting exhibits near perennial
conditions during construction. This tributary was allowed to naturally form and stabilized as
needed with material from the Site. The feature (now referenced as UT-5) continues to exhibit
near -continuous flow, provides high stream/aquatic function, and remains stable.
Wetlands
• All fourteen groundwater gauges were successful in year 3 (2021). Gauge-14 malfunctioned early
in the growing season due to an error in deploying the logger. All gauges have been replaced and
with Onset U20-001-04 models due to previous failures of Onset MX-2001 loggers during previous
monitoring years. The barometer for post processing of groundwater data is located at the rain
gauge. Groundwater hydrology data is included in Appendix D.
Vegetation
• Year 3 (2021) CVS measurements were performed on July 28, 2021 and indicate an average of 604
planted stems per acre (excluding live -stakes) across the Site; therefore, the Site meets vegetation
success criteria. Additionally, all 16 individual vegetation plots met success criteria based on
planted stems alone. Additionally, three random vegetation transects were measured during year
3 (2021). All three transects met success criteria with an average of 648 planted stems per acre
(Table 10, Appendix C). Year 3 (2021) vegetation plot information can be found in Appendix C and
plot locations are depicted on Figure 2 (Appendix A).
• Additional live -stake planting (as discussed with and approved by the USACE PM Steve Kichefski in
2019) was completed in December of 2019. Documentation submitted to Steve Kichefski in
December of 2019 is included in Appendix G.

Brushy Mountain Mitigation Bank Site Restoration Systems, LLC
Yadkin 01 Umbrella Mitigation Bank

1.0 PROJECT SUMMARY
Restoration Systems, LLC established the Brushy Mountain Mitigation Bank Site (hereafter referred to as
the "Site") on January 23, 2019, as part of the Restoration Systems' Yadkin 01 Umbrella Mitigation Bank.
Implementation of the Site's Detailed Mitigation Plan concluding in May 2019. This Monitoring Report
summarizes the year 3 (2021) monitoring and maintenance efforts.
1.1 Project Background
The Site encompasses a 23.29-acre easement along warm water tributaries to Arnold Branch. The Site is
located approximately three miles south of Elkin, southwest of NC Highway 21 and Interstate 77 in Yadkin
County (Figure 1, Appendix A).
Before construction, Site land use consisted of agricultural land used for livestock grazing. Livestock had
unrestricted access to Site streams, which had been dredged and straightened, rerouted to the edge of
the floodplain, accessed/trampled by livestock, downcutting, and eroding vertically and laterally, and
received extensive sediment and nutrient inputs. Further, stream -side wetlands/hydric soils were
impacted by stream relocation, channel entrenchment, drain tile, ditching, compaction due to hoof shear
and agricultural equipment, and removal of native, woody vegetation. Preconstruction Site conditions
resulted in degraded water quality, a loss of aquatic habitat, reduced nutrient/sediment retention, and
unstable channel characteristics — a loss of horizontal flow vectors that maintain pools and increased
erosive forces to channel bed and banks.
1.2 Project Goals & Objectives
Site -specific mitigation goals were determined using functional assessment methods (NC SAM, NC WAM,
and NC SQT) to predict which metrics will result in functional uplift from the proposed mitigation activities.
Site -specific goals included the following.
• Minimize downstream flooding to the maximum extent feasible
• Remove direct nutrient inputs from agricultural land use
• Attenuate flood flow across the Site
• Remove direct sediment inputs from agricultural land use
• Reduce pollutant contributions to downstream waters
• Connect streams to functioning wetlands
• Improve both instream and stream -side habitat
Project goals may be directly tied to functional assessment methods, as presented in Table 1. Specific
work conducted at the Site to achieve these goals are detailed in Table 2.

Additional activities that occurred at the Site included the following.
• Installation of five marsh treatment areas to treat drainage before entering Site tributaries, and
• Planting 18.6 acres of the Site with 19,150 stems — planted species and densities are
summarized in Appendix B.
The Site design was completed in November 2018. Construction started on February 19, 2019, and ended
within a final walkthrough on April 30, 2019. The Site was planted on May 3, 2019.
2.0 MONITORING PLAN & PERFORMANCE STANDARDS
Monitoring requirements and success criteria outlined in the latest guidance by IRT 2016 (Wilmington
District Stream and Wetland Compensatory Mitigation Update) will be followed and are briefly outlined
below. Monitoring data collected at the Site will include reference photos, plant survival analysis, channel
stability analysis, and biological data.
Monitoring will be conducted for seven years unless the USACE, in consultation with the IRT, agrees that
monitoring may be terminated early. Early closure will only be provided through written approval from
the USACE in consultation with the IRT. Annual monitoring reports will be submitted by the Sponsor no
later than November 30 of each monitoring year. The following table provides a monitoring schedule for
the Site.

2.1 Streams
The performance criteria for restored stream channels, per USACE Guidance (October 24, 2016), are
summarized below:
• All streams must maintain an Ordinary High -Water Mark (OHWM), per RGL 05-05.
• Continuous surface flow must be documented each year for at least 30 consecutive days. *(see
note below)
• Bank height ratio (BHR) cannot exceed 1.2 for a majority of measured cross sections on a given
reach.
• Entrenchment ratio (ER) must be 2.2 or above for a majority of measured riffle cross sections
on a given reach classified by E-type, or C-type channels. Channels classified by B-type channels
may be characterized by ER values below 1.4.
• BHR and ER should not change by more than 10% in any given year for a majority of a given
reach.
• Must document the occurrence of at least four bankfull events in separate years during the
monitoring period.
*UT 3 and UT 4 are expected to exhibit near -continuous flow throughout the year; however,
the minimum success criteria of 30 days consecutive flow will be used by the IRT to assess
credit alterations within each reach. Streams are expected to exhibit jurisdictional stream
indicators, including continuous bed and bank, scour of leaf matter, and OHWM.
Longitudinal profiles of thalweg, water surface, and top -of -bank of each Restoration and Enhancement
Level I reach are provided in the as -built survey. During the stream monitoring period, profile surveys shall
not be required unless evidence of bed and/or bank instability is observed. In such cases, the USACE, in
consultation with the IRT, shall determine if remedial measures are necessary. If corrective actions are
required, monitoring and reporting of remedial measures may include additional longitudinal profiles.
Determinations regarding the occurrence of bankfull events shall be based on the observation of overbank
events utilizing a combination of stream gauges, automated trail cameras, as well as physical evidence of
overbank flooding. Physical indicators, which are easily observable, include floodplain scour, vegetation
flattening, sediment deposition on floodplains, and wrack lines consisting of deposited debris associated
with stream discharges. The presence of physical indicators supporting bankfull event determinations
shall be photo -documented when possible. Each bankfull event will be reported in the annual monitoring
reports.

four gauges/trail cameras have documented flow for greater than 30 consecutive days.
2.2 Stream Results
Year 3 (2021) stream measurements were performed between March 30 and July 28, 2021. Monitoring
measurements indicate minimal changes in the cross sections as compared to as -built data. The channel
geometry compares favorably with the proposed conditions outlined in the Detailed Restoration Plan and
as constructed.
Across the Site, all in -stream structures are intact and functioning as designed. No stream areas of concern
were identified during year 3 (2021) monitoring. Tables for year 3 (2021) data and annual quantitative
assessments are included in Appendix C.
Three bankfull events were documented during year 3 (2021) monitoring for a total of 11 bankfull events
to -date during the monitoring period (Table 16, Appendix D).
Channel formation was evident in UT 3 and UT 4 in year 3 (2021). The two streamflow gauges and trail
cameras on UT 3 recorded 208 and 144 consecutive streamflow days during year 3 (2021). The two
streamflow gauges and trail cameras on UT 4 recorded 184 and 241 consecutive streamflow days during
year 3 (2021). The approximate location of streamflow gauges and accompanying cameras are depicted
in Figure 2 (Appendix A); tables containing channel formation indicators and streamflow gauge data are
included in Appendix D.
2.3 Wetlands
The performance criteria for restored wetlands, per USACE Guidance (October 24, 2016) are summarized
below:
• Saturation or inundation within the upper 12 inches of the soil surface for, at a minimum, 12
percent of the growing season, during average climatic conditions.
o Wetland success criteria of 12 percent of the growing season was derived from the
Wilmington District Stream and Wetland Compensatory Mitigation Update (IRT 2016).
2021 (MY3) Annual Monitoring Report Page 6
Brushy Mountain Mitigation Bank Site Restoration Systems, LLC
Yadkin 01 Umbrella Mitigation Bank

According to the Soil Survey of Yadkin County, the growing season is from March 26-November 9 (USDA
1962). However, for this Site, gauge hydrologic success will be determined using data from March 1-
November 9 to represent the period of biological activity more accurately. Soil temperatures will be
collected from February to April of each monitoring year and reported in the annual monitoring report.
Confirmation of the growing season must be accompanied by evidence of biological activity (budburst and
soil temperature). The growing season will not be considered to have started on March 1 if bud burst and
soil temperature data (41' F) do not meet these criteria.
Target hydrological characteristics include saturation or inundation for 12 percent of the monitored
period (March 1-November 9), during average climatic conditions. During years with atypical climatic
conditions, a groundwater gauge in a reference wetland may be used to ascertain if hydrology data may
be modified by the IRT for that particular year. Reference gauge data is not proposed to alter growing
season lengths or hydrology success criteria without the IRT's consent.

** During years 1-2, the growing season was determined based the Soil Survey of Yadkin County (March 26 —
November 9). However, based on a 2021 discussion with the IRT, concern arose that the Soil Survey growing season
does not accurately represent the current growing season end date. As a result, the growing season methodology
was changed to use the most current WETS (USDA 2021) data to determine the growing season end date (Appendix
D.
All fourteen groundwater gauges were successful in year 3 (2021). Gauge 14 malfunctioned at the
beginning of the growing season, it was replaced and has been logging consistently since. Groundwater
hydrology data is included in Appendix D.

2.5 Vegetation
The performance criteria for planted riparian vegetation, per USACE Guidance (October 24, 2016) are
summarized below:
• Within planted portions of the Site, a minimum of 320 stems per acre must be present at year 3;
a minimum of 260 stems per acre must be present at year 5; a minimum of 210 stems per acre
must be present at year 7.
• Trees must average 7 feet in height at year 5, and 10 feet in height at year 7.
• Planted and volunteer stems are counted, provided they are included in the approved planting
list for the Site or as approved by the IRT on a case -by -case basis.
• Any single species can only account for 50% of the required stems per monitoring plot.
During quantitative vegetation sampling, 16 sample plots (10-meter by 10-meter) were installed within
the Site as per guidelines established in CVS-EEP Protocol for Recording Vegetation, Version 4.2 (Lee et al.
2008). In each sample plot, vegetation parameters to be monitored include species composition and
species density. Visual observations of the percent cover of shrub and herbaceous species will also be
documented by photographs. Year 2 (2020) data is included in Appendix B.

2.6 Vegetation Results
Year 3 (2021) CVS measurements were performed on July 28, 2021 and indicate an average of 604 planted
stems per acre (excluding live -stakes) across the Site; therefore, the Site meets vegetation success criteria.
Additionally, all 16 individual vegetation plots met success criteria based on planted stems alone.
Additionally, three random vegetation transects were measured during year 3 (2021). All three transects
met success criteria with an average of 648 planted stems per acre (Table 10, Appendix C). Year 3 (2021)
vegetation plot information can be found in Appendix C and plot locations are depicted on Figure 2
(Appendix A).
2.7 Macroinvertebrates
Benthic macroinvertebrate sampling will be conducted once before construction (baseline conditions) and
once during monitoring years 3, 5, and 7. Macroinvertebrate sampling will be conducted following the
"Qual 4" method described in Standard Operating Procedures for Collection and Analysis of Benthic
Macroin vertebrates (NCDWQ 2012). Site sampling will occur during the "index period" referenced in Small
Streams Biocriteria Development (NCDWQ 2009). Results will be presented on a site -by -site basis and will
include a list of taxa collected, an enumeration of Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera, and Tricopetera taxa as
Biotic Index values. Post -construction macroinvertebrate sampling occurred on May 18, 2021, in
accordance with the monitoring schedule (Table 4). Results and habitat forms are included in appendix H.
2021 (MY3) Annual Monitoring Report Page 8
Brushy Mountain Mitigation Bank Site Restoration Systems, LLC
Yadkin 01 Umbrella Mitigation Bank

Benthic macroinvertebrate sampled data during MY 3 shows increases in richness and diversity when
compared to preconstruction surveys. When compared to reference site data the onsite data is only
slightly below reference values for MY 3.
3.0 MAINTENANCE AND CONTINGENCY PLAN
The Sponsor shall regularly monitor the Site and conduct a physical inspection a minimum of once per
year throughout the post -construction monitoring period until performance standards are met. These
inspections may identify components and features that require routine maintenance. Routine
maintenance should be expected most often in the first two years following construction and are
summarized as follows.
3.1 Vegetation
Vegetation will be maintained to ensure the health and vigor of the targeted plant community. Routine
vegetation maintenance and repair activities may include supplemental planting, pruning, mulching, and
fertilizing. Exotic invasive plant species shall be controlled by mechanical (i.e., chainsaw) and/or chemical
(i.e., basal bark herbicide application) methods. Any vegetation control requiring herbicide application
and soil fertilization will be performed following NC Department of Agriculture (NCDA) rules and
regulations & 15A NCAC 02B .0233.
If vegetation Performance Standards are not achieved based on average density calculations from
combined plots over the entire restoration area, supplemental planting may be performed with tree
species approved by regulatory agencies. Additional planting will be completed and monitored as needed
until the achievement of vegetation success criteria is reached.
3.2 Streams
If stream Performance Standards are not fulfilled, a mechanism for contingency will be implemented.
Stream contingency may include, but may not be limited to, 1) structure repair and/or installation; 2)
repair of dimension, pattern, and/or profile variables; and 3) bank stabilization. The contingency method
is expected to be dependent upon stream variables that are not in compliance with Performance
Standards. Primary concerns that may jeopardize stream success include, 1) structure failure, 2) headcut
migration through the Site, and/or 3) bank erosion.
Structure Failure
If structures are compromised, the affected structure will be repaired, maintained, or replaced. Once the
structure is repaired or replaced, it must function properly, and stabilize adjacent stream banks and/or
maintain grade control within the channel. Structures that remain intact but exhibit flow around, beneath,
or through the header/footer will be repaired by excavating a trench on the upstream side of the structure
and reinstalling filter fabric in front of the header/footer. Structures that have been compromised,
resulting in shifting or collapse of header/footer, will be removed and replaced with a structure suitable
anticipated stormwater flows.
Headcut Migration
If a headcut occurs (identified visually or through measurements [i.e., bank -height ratios exceeding 1.2]),
provisions for impeding headcut migration and repairing damage caused by the headcut will be
implemented. Headcut migration may be hindered by installing in -stream grade control structures (rip -
rap sill and/or log cross -vane weir) and/or restoring stream geometry variables until channel stability is
2021 (MY3) Annual Monitoring Report Page 9
Brushy Mountain Mitigation Bank Site Restoration Systems, LLC
Yadkin 01 Umbrella Mitigation Bank

achieved. Channel repairs to stream geometry may include channel backfill with coarse material and
stabilizing the material with erosion control matting, vegetative transplants, and/or willow stakes.
Bank Erosion
If severe bank erosion occurs, resulting in elevated width -to -depth ratios, contingency measures to reduce
bank erosion and the width -to -depth ratio will be implemented. Bank erosion contingency measures may
include the installation of log -vane weirs and/or other bank stabilization measures. If the resultant bank
erosion induces shoot cutoffs or channel abandonment, a channel may be excavated, which will reduce
shear stress to stable values.
Stream Flow
If insufficient flow occurs in UT 3 and UT 4, various contingency provisions may occur. If the success criteria
of 30-days continuous flow are not met, the IRT may choose to reduce credit for portions of the reach
subject to a lack of flow. If the success criteria of 30-days continuous flow are exceeded, but the near -
continuous flow is not exhibited, the IRT may choose to request additional data be collected within the
subject reach, including NC SQT measurements to verify functional uplift. In addition, the IRT may request
the channel be reclassified as intermittent streams for future reporting purposes.
3.3 Wetland Hydrology
Hydrological contingency will require consultation with hydrologists and regulatory agencies if wetland
hydrology enhancement/restoration is not achieved. Hydrologic contingency actions may include
floodplain surface modifications such as the construction of ephemeral pools, deep ripping of the soil
profile, supplemental planting, and/or maintenance to areas of the wetland where stormwater or
floodplain flows are intercepted to prevent scour. Recommendations for a contingency to establish
wetland hydrology may be implemented and monitored until hydrology success criteria are achieved. If
beaver become a nuisance within the Site, beaver management will be initiated and continued on an as -
needed basis in accordance with North Carolina Wildlife Resource Commission (NCWRC) rules and
regulations.
3.4 Site Boundaries
Site boundaries are identified in the field with t-posts and/or treated 6-inch fence timbers and marked
with signage to ensure a clear distinction between the Site and adjacent properties. Disturbed, damaged,
or destroyed boundary markers will be repaired and/or replaced on an as -needed basis.
3.5 Terracell Drop Structure
The Terracell drop structure is monitored annually. In the event of erosion or scour within the structure,
maintenance may include structure repair, chinking the structure to prevent piping, securing loose coir-
fiber matting, and/or supplemental planting of live stakes and erosion control grasses. If debris clogs or
inhibits flow over the structure, manual or mechanical debris removal will occur; maintenance is only
expected until the structure naturalizes.

In December of 2019, as planned with the USCAE Project Manager Steve Kichefski, RS planted additional
live stakes. Live stakes were planted along the upper third of UT-1 and around some UT-2 structures. Live
stakes planted after construction consisted primarily of silky dogwood (Cornus amomum) and silky willow
(Salix sericea). Visual inspection throughout the year indicated an overall successful establishment of the
initial planting though, the quantity planted was low. The goal of this planting was to supplement the first
and adequately establish woody, riparian vegetation, adjacent to stream channels.
To accomplish the supplement, RS planted 1,000, primarily black willow (Salix nigra), live stakes over
approximately 1,300 I. ft. of UT-1 and UT-2. Documentation of this effort is provided in Appendix G.

1 Gauges 12, 13, and 14 were installed in non -credit -generating areas that appeared wetter than expected after
construction.
z Gauges 1-11 were installed between April 30 and May 29, 2019, as construction activities ceased throughout the
Site. Gauges 12 was installed on June 26, and gauges 13 and 14 were installed on September 4. It is expected that
all gauges would have met or exceeded success criteria early in the Year 1 (2019) growing season.
3 Gauge 7 malfunctioned twice during the Year 2 (2020) growing season. The gauge began reading erratically for 53
days from early May to late June before it was replaced on June 30. The new gauge read for just 10 days before
failing. The manufacturer was unable to retrieve any usable data from the gauge. Based on precipitation data during
the malfunction periods, this gauge would likely have met success criteria had it not malfunctioned.

RE: SAW-2017-01463 Brushy Mountain Bank Site, Live Stake Planting
(NCDWR Project No. 17-0995)
Mr. Kichefski,
As planned, IRS planted additional live stakes at Brushy Mountain on December 91". Live stakes were
planted along the upper third of UT-1 and around some UT-2 structures. Live stakes planted after
construction consisted primarily of silky dogwood (Cornus amomum) and silky willow (Salixsericea). Visual
inspection throughout the year indicated an overall successful establishment of the initial plantingthough,
the quantity planted was admittedly low. The goal of this planting was to supplement the first and
adequately establish woody, riparian vegetation, adjacent to stream channels.
To accomplish the supplement, IRS planted 1,000, primarily black willow (Salix nigra), live stakes over
approximately 1,300 I. ft. of UT-1 and UT-2 (see attached figure). Josh Merritt and Matthew Harrell of IRS
conducted the planting (see attached photo deck).
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
Raymond Holz

Directions for use: The observer is to survey a minimum of 100 meters with 200 meters preferred of stream, preferably in an
upstream direction starting above the bridge pool and the road right-of-way. The segment which is assessed should represent average
stream conditions. To perform a proper habitat evaluation the observer needs to get into the stream. To complete the form, select the
description which best fits the observed habitats and then circle the score. If the observed habitat falls in between two descriptions,
select an intermediate score. A final habitat score is determined by adding the results from the different metrics.

Biological Assessment Unit, DWQ OTAL SCORE
Directions for use: The observer is to survey a minimum of 100 meters with 200 meters preferred of stream, preferably in an
upstream direction starting above the bridge pool and the road right-of-way. The segment which is assessed should represent average
stream conditions. To perform a proper habitat evaluation the observer needs to get into the stream. To complete the form, select the
description which best fits the observed habitats and then circle the score. If the observed habitat falls in between two descriptions,
select an intermediate score. A final habitat score is determined by adding the results from the different metrics.
