Monitoring Year 2 of 5 (2013) EEP Project Number 92596 January 2014 Yancey County, North Carolina page 1 Vegetation success criteria (from approved Unnamed Tributaries to Bald Creek Stream Restoration Project, Final Restoration Plan [NC EEP 2009]) is as follows "The success criteria for the preferred species in the restoration areas will be based on annual and cumulative survival and growth over five years Survival of preferred species must be at a minimum 320 stems - per -acre at the end of three years of monitoring and 260 stems - per -acre after five years " Six vegetation monitoring plots were monitored on August 12, 2013 for monitoring year 2 (2013) Overall, Site vegetation averaged 425 planted stems - per -acre (excluding livestakes) in year 2 (2013), which exceeds the minimum stem count for success criteria of 320 stems - per -acre Five of the six plots met or exceeded the success criteria Vegetation plot 4 was below success criteria with 202 planted stems - per -acre Low planted stem survival in vegetation plot 4 may be attributed to competition from herbaceous vegetation (primarily fescue [Festuca spp ] and tearthumb [Polygonum spp ]) Five vegetation areas of concern were identified on the site Planted stem density was moderate to poor throughout the site Planted stems in the drier portions of the site were generally hard to locate due to the thick fescue Wetter areas in the site had poor stem growth due to saturation and competition with sedges and soft rush (Carex spp and Juncus effusus) Additionally, three small patches of multiflora rose (Rosa multiflora) were identified in the site These areas of concern are summarized below and depicted on the attached Figure 2 (Appendix B) Vegetatinn Areas of Concern Map Identifier Feature/Issue VAC -1 Low stem density around tributary 3 VAC -2 Low stem density in and around Veg Plot 4 VAC -3 to 5 Multiflora Rose Stream success criteria (from approved Unnamed Tributaries to Bald Creek Stream Restoration Project, Final Restoration Plan [NCEEP 2009])]) consists is as follows "Monitoring shall consist of the collection and analysis of stream stability and riparian vegetation survivability data to support the evaluation of the project in meeting established restoration objectives " A visual assessment and geomorphic survey were completed for the Site Site reaches are conforming to design criteria established in the Unnamed Tributaries to Bald Creek Stream Restoration Project, Final Restoration Plan (NCEEP 2009) No significant bank erosion was recorded and geomorphic measurements are within the range of proposed design parameters Stream areas of concern include a headcut on Tributary 2 that currently poses no immediate threat to stream stability In addition, five areas of aggradation (SAC -2 to 6)' were observed along the mainstem, Tributary 2, and Tributary 4 These areas were documented previously and conditions have improved since last reported in the year 1 (2012) monitoring report Stream UT to Bald Stream (final) Axiom Environmental, Inc Monitoring Year 2 of 5 (2013) EEP Project Number 92596 January 2014 Yancey County, North Carolina page ,2 channels appear to be exhibiting aggradation of fine materials„ possibly from surface flows across the adjacent floodplain and extensive herbaceous vegetation growth within the channel bed Currently, aggradatlon does not appear to present a problem, however, continued observation throughout the monitoring period should determine if the system is able to flush aggraded material Stream areas of concern are summarized in the following table and are depicted on Figure 2 (Appendix B) Ctream Art-.ac of ('nncern Map Identifier Feature/Issue SAC -1 Headcut on Tributary 2 SAC -2 to 6 Aggradation on Mainstem, Tributary 2, and Tributary 4 Summary information/data related to the occurrence of items such as beaver or encroachment and statistics related to performance of various project and monitoring elements can be found in tables and figures within this report's appendices Narrative background and supporting information formerly found in these reports can be found in the Baseline Monitoring Report (formerly Mitigation Plan) and in the Mitigation Plan (formerly the Restoration Plan) documents available on NCEEPs website All raw data supporting the tables and figures in the appendices is available from NCEEP upon request 2.0 METHODOLOGY 2.1 Vegetation Assessment Six vegetation plots were established and marked during the Year 1 (2012) monitoring period Plots were established by installing 4 -foot, metal U -bar post at the corners and a 10 -foot, 0 75 inch PVC at the origin The plots are 10 meters square and are located randomly within the Site These plots were surveyed in August for the Year 2 (2013) monitoring season using methods outlined in CVS -EEP Protocol for Recording Vegetation, Levels 1 -2 Plot Sampling Only, Version 4 2 (Lee et al 2008) (http Hcvs bio unc edu %methods htm), results are included in Appendix C The taxonomic standard for vegetation used for this document was Flora of the Southern and Mid - Atlantic States (Weakley 2012) 2.2 Stream Assessment Annual stream monitoring was conducted in April 2013 Measurements were taken using a Topcon GTS 303 total station and Recon data collector The raw total station filevas processed using Carlson Survey Software into a Computer Aided Design (CAD) file Coordinates were exported as a text/ASCII file to Microsoft Excel for processing and presentation of data Pebble counts were completed using the modified Wolman method (Rosgen 1993) One crest gauge (PVC with wooden staff gauge and cork filings) was installed in the lower, downstream third of the S ite Six permanent cross - sections, three riffle and three pool, were established and will be used to evaluate stream dimension annually, locations are depicted on Figure 2 (Appendix B) Cross - sections are permanently monumented with 5 -foot metal t -posts at each end point Cross - sections will be surveyed to provide a detailed measurement of the stream and banks including UT to Bald Stream (final) Axiom Environmental, Inc Monitoring Year 2 of 5 (2013) EEP Project,Number 92596 January 2014 Yancey County, North Carolina page 3 points on the adjacent floodplam, top of bank, bankfull, breaks in slope, edge of water, and thalweg Data wdl be used to calculate width -depth ratios, entrenchment ratios, and bank height ratios for each cross - section In addition, a pebble count was completed at cross - section 2 and photographs will be taken at each permanent cross - section location annually Six stream monitoring reaches were established and will be used to evaluate stream pattern and longitudinal profile, locations are depicted on Figure 2 (Appendix B) Measurement of channel pattern will include belt - width, meander length, and radius of curvature (only in year one) Subsequently, data will be used to calculate meander -width ratios Longitudinal profile measurements will include average water surface slopes and facet slopes and pool -to -pool spacing Twenty -two permanent photo points were established throughout the restoration reach (12 fixed photo points, 4 cross - section photo points, and 6 vegetation plot photo points), locations are depicted on Figure 2 (Appendix B) and are included in Appendix B In addition, visual stream morphology stability assessments will be completed in four monitoring reaches annually to assess the channel bed, banks, and in- stream structures 3.0 REFERENCES Ecosystem Enhancement Program (EEP) Unpublished Procedural Guidance and Content Requirements for EEP Monitoring Projects, Version 14, dated 11/07/11 NC Department of Environment and Natural Resources Available online at http4 /portal ncdenr org /c /document library/get file ?p I id= 1169848 &foldetld = 2288101 &name =DLFE -39268 pdt Lee, M T, R K Peet, 'S D Roberts, and T R Wentworth 2008 CVS -EEP Protocol for Recording Vegetation, Levels 1 -2 Plot Sampling Only, Version 4 2 Available online at http Hcvs bio unc edu /methods htm N C Ecosystem Enhancement Program 2009 Unnamed Tributaries to Bald Creek Stream Restoration Project, Final Restoration Plan -
