Re: Evans /Ballahack Second Annual Report, Greene Environmental Services, LLC
Ms Merritt-
Included is the Second Annual Report for the Evans /Ballahack Bank Parcel, Year 2014, Tar
River Mitigation Bank. Based on four, 100 m2 monitoring plots, overall seedling density for
planted species exceeded success the success criterion of 320 seedlings per acre. For the 2014
growing season, estimated seedling density was 506.1 +121.5 seedlings per acre. Seedling density
after the previous (2013) growing season was 455.5 +137.8 seedlings per acre. The increase in
seedling density was due to a supplemental planting of 800 seedlings in January 2014 and
resprouting from rooted plant tissue of previously assumed non - surviving seedlings.
Thank you,

Second Annual Report for Evans Ballahack Bank Parcel
Greene Environmental Services, LLC
Tar River Umbrella Mitigation Bank
August 2014
Introduction and Background
Greene Environmental Services, LLC (GES) of Snow Hill, North Carolina, in 2013, established
a riparian buffer /nutrient offset mitigation site in the Tar River Basin. The site is located east of
the Edgecombe County town of Tarboro, NC and may be accessed by driving east on US 264
approximately 5 miles from Tarboro (Figure 1). At Exit 491, take Chinquapin Road (SR 1524) 2
miles north to NC 111. Take a right turn on NC 111 and drive approximately 0.3 miles and take
a right turn onto Roberson School Road (SR 1524). Continue on Roberson School Road for
approximately 0.6 miles and take a right turn onto the unnamed farm road with circular metal
grain storage buildings located in the distance from the road. Continue 0.3 miles on farm road to
a bridge over a drainage canal. The project site is located to the east of the canal and south of the
metal buildings along a streamside tree line (Figures 2 and 3). The purpose of the nutrient
mitigation bank is to improve water quality within the Tar River Basin by reducing nutrient and
sediment inputs to the watershed and provide off -site mitigation for development requiring
nutrient offsets.
The bank parcel is located within the Lower Tar Watershed (HUC: 03020103). The bank parcel
buffers an un -named tributary to Ballahack Canal which in turn is a tributary to Conetoe Creek
which enters the Tar River near the Pitt County town of Falkland, NC. Ballahack Canal is an
impaired stream with the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources —
Division of Water Resources designation: 28- 87 -1.2 C NSW 8.4 mi. AL B -9 SS - -02 I FS. The
local landscape is in row crop agriculture, cut -over forest scrubland and forest. Soils range from
well drained loamy sands to very poorly drained loams (Figure 4). In the 2012 growing season,
prior to the installation of tree seedlings, the site was in soybean production.
The bank parcel is 10 acres, including 5.45 acres (237,402 square feet) of Tar - Pamlico riparian
buffer credit and 4.55 acres (198,198 square feet) of nutrient offset buffer credit (Figures 5a and
5b). Nitrogen and phosphorus credits generated by the nutrient offset buffet total 10,342.241b -N
at 2,273.021b -N /acre and 666.12 lb -P at 146.4 lb -P. /acre. This bank parcel was established under
the terms and conditions of the Greene Environmental Services Tar - Pamlico River Basin
Riparian Buffer and Nutrient Offset Umbrella Bank made and entered into by Mr. Bobby Ham of
Greene Environmental Services, LLC, acting as the Bank Sponsor and the North Carolina
Department of Environment and Natural Resources — Division of Water Resources. In October
2012, a stream determination was recorded by Martin Richmond of DWR and a preliminary site
visited was made by Katie Merritt of DWR; the site was determined to be suitable for nutrient
offset mitigation and riparian buffer.

The parcel is located in the Edgecombe County Drainage District #2 which includes Ballahack
Canal. The Drainage District maintains a 20 -foot easement along the Canal. When designing the
Evans Ballahack Bank Parcel the area under easement was avoided such that the easement nor
any drainage structures were encumbered by the Bank.
Seedling Planting Design
The Evans /Ballahack Bank Parcel was initially planted with character trees in February and
March of 2013. The suite of tree species selected for the bank parcel should be well- adapted or
tolerant to the soil and drainage conditions throughout the site.
Soils at the Evans /Ballahack mitigation site were loams and sandy loams and ranged from very
poorly drained soils to well- drained; historic ditching has most likely increase the rate of soil
drainage (Figure 4). Bareroot seedlings were obtained from the North Carolina Forest Service
Nursery, Claridge Nursery, Goldsboro, NC. All tree seedlings planted generally ranged in height
from 1 foot to 4 feet. The species most frequently planted on soils with poor drainage were bald
cypress, black gum and river birch (Table 1). The species most frequently planted on better
drained soils were red oak and white oak. Persimmon, yellow poplar, sycamore, water oak and
willow oak were planted throughout with the exception of areas which exhibited frequent
ponding. Seedlings were planted in rows roughly paralleling the buffered stream at l Oft by l Oft
spacings.
A total of 5000 bareroot seedlings, thus averaging 500 seedlings per acre, of ten character
species were planted at the Evans /Ballahack parcel during February and March 2013 (Table 2).
Yellow poplar, black gum, white oak and bald cypress were the most frequently planted species,
accounting for 52% of the seedlings planted. River birch, sycamore, water oak and willow oak
accounted for 40% of the total seedlings planted. Persimmon and red oak accounted for 8% of
the total seedlings planted. While planting, soils, microsite and surface drainage conditions were
noted and appropriate species were planted on these sites (Table 1).
In addition to the initial planting, a supplemental planting was undertaken in January of 2014.
Based on a visual assessment and cursory quantitative assessment, there were sizeable gaps in
seedling success within the tracts that were not necessarily reflected in monitoring plot records.
A total of 800 additional seedlings were planted in two parallel rows running the length of the
Parcel. B'areroot seedlings planted were two hundred each of sycamore (Platanus occidentalis),
white oak (Quercus alba), red oak (Q. rubra) and bald cypress (Taxodium distichum) (Table 2).
This increased the percentage of planted seedling of sycamore, white oak, red oak and bald
cypress by 12, 16, 7 and 4 percent, respectively, while reducing the percentage for all other
species.
Monitoring Plots
Surveyed boundary points were demarked with 6 -foot metal T -posts and the boundary between
the mitigation parcel and the adjacent agricultural land was marked with white, 5 -foot PVC posts
atop metal rods at 100 -foot intervals. Four, 10m by 10m (0.0247 -acre) monitoring plots were
established on the parcel using CVS protocols (Figures 5a and 5b). Tracts 2 and 4 each have one
plot; the largest tract, Tract 3, has two plots. The corners of each plot were marked with white,
4

10 -foot PVC posts atop metal rods. Seedlings within the monitoring plots were flagged with
blue, plastic, flagging tape and white pinflags. All seedlings within each plot were located and
mapped (Figures 6a -6d). Plot photographs were made from a location at the northwest corner
with a view toward the southeast corner (Figure 7).
Second Year Monitoring Plot Data Analysis
As per discussions with NC DENR, Division of Water Resources staff, seedlings of water oak
and willow oak were not used as criteria to measure seedling establishment success in
Monitoring Plot BLK -3. Plot BLK -3 is located approximately 100 feet from a mature forest
stand on property adjacent to the Bank Parcel. The mature stand contains specimens of water oak
and willow oak thus they are potential sources of propagules for natural colonization. The other
three monitoring plots are of sufficient distance from the mature stand that natural colonization
was deemed unlikely. The data analyses that follow exclude water oak and willow oak counts in
Plot BLK -3.
In August 2014, during the latter part of the second growing season an average seedling density
among the four monitoring plots was 12.5 +3.0 seedlings per plot (Table 3). Thus the average
density of 506.1 +121.5 seedlings per acre (Table 4). Plot BLK -1 in Tract 2 had the greatest
density with 16 seedlings per 100m2 plot, thus 647.8 seedlings per acre. Plots BLK -2 (Tract 2)
and BLK -4 (Tract 4) had the lowest density with 10 seedlings, thus 404.9 seedlings per acre in
these plots.
The most frequently encountered species within the monitoring plots were blackgum (Nyssa
sylvatica) and bald cypress (Taxodium distichum) accounting for 18 percent and 16 percent,
-- - -- respectively, and 34 percent of the total seedlings, collectively (Table 5). Willow oak (Quercus
phellos), water oak (Quercus nigra) were the least represented species found in the monotporing
plakts at 6 and 2 percent, respectively. American persimmon (Diospyros virginiana) seedlings
were planted in the Ballahack Parcel but were not recorded within the monitoring plots.
A comparison of seedling success in the monitoring plots at the end of the first growing season,
October 2013, to August 2014 of the second growing season the indicated that sycamore
(Platanus occidentalis) experienced the greatest percent increase in relative density (40.5
percent); this species was planted in the supplemental planting of January 2014. Red oak
(Quercus rubra) was also planted supplementally and exhibited a 20.2 percent increase. Willow
oak (Q. phellos) and yellow poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera) increases were recorded and can be
accounted for by resprouting from root material surviving from the previous year. Black gum
(Nyssa sylvatica) and water oak (Q. nigra) both declined in relative density by 10.1 percent; all
other species remained unchanged.
Overall Success, Continued Monitoring and Maintenance Plan
The Evans / Ballahack Parcel will be monitored during the 2015 growing season to ensure that the
parcel boundaries are maintained and that any easement terms are in compliance. Between late
5

August and October of 2015, the monitoring plots will be assessed and photographed and the
third annual report submitted to the NC Division of Water Resources. If control of invasive
species or competing species is deemed necessary, glyphosate herbicide will be applied using
backpack sprayers as well as manual and mechanical (portable line trimmers) methods of
control. Subsequent monitoring will be conducted between late August and October and annual
reports submitted to DWR for a total of five growing seasons, pending final compliance. Signage
has been installed at key access locations identifying the Parcel as a conservation area, contact
information and listing activities that are not allowed as per the conservation easement.
