3. Project Description
3a- Describe the existing conditions on the site and the general land use in the vicinity of the protect at the time of this
application
The Prolect'Site consists,of approximately 290 linear feet of'Beetree Creek between Warren Wilson Road and the
Swannanoa River The Site is adiacent,to the access road to Owen Park (west) and'a mostly wooded area owned by
Gods Way Baptist Church (east) Beetree Creek is a Class C stream with an approximate drainage area of 14 sq mi at
the Protect Site The - entire project area is within the 100 year floodplain and the associated regulatory floodway. The right
bank of Beetree Creek is severely eroded, near vertical. and 8,to 10 feet,high forroughly 150rfeet through the,Site. There
is strong evidence of channel migration toward to the Owen Park access road, at one location a storm drainage pipe
protrudes from-the eroded right bank by about 8 feet The left'bank of Beetree Creek through this reach is mostly stable
The left overbank region is thickly vegetated and.debris,strewn: much of this debris now acts.as a bamer to flood flows,
preventing ready access to the bulk of the mapped floodglain
The downstream portion of the voiect site is less severely degraded but there�is an area of'approximately 50 linear feet
with severe erosion and +undercutting along the left bank A large gravel bar'has formed from the right bank %,of theway
across the normal flow channel forcing all normal flows up against the eroding left bank
Land use in the vicinity of the Project Site is mixed with industrial, commercial, both high and low density residential, and,
forested open space
3b Ust'the total °estimated acreage of all existing wetlands on the property
01 acres (465 sq -ft). a small'linear area located'in floodplain on left bank
3c. List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams (intermittent and perennial) on the property
Approximately 290 linear feet
3d Explain the purpose of the proposed project-
The purpose of the project is to stabilize a severely eroding stream bank and protect the existing access road to Owen
Park
3e Describe,the overall protect in detail, including the type °of equipment to be used
The,oroiect.will involve the reconstruction of the right bank of Beetree Creek for approximately 160 linear feet, two rock
(J -Hook) vane structures will also be,added in this reach.to further protect the stream bank and help reestablish bed form.
The proposed right, bank section will be about 10 % feet -tall in the severely eroded areas and will consist of a_boulder toe
,base (3'/ feet above stream bed or % bankfull), reinforced sod lift section (apwox 3 feet, above boulders or twice
bankfull), and a standard compacted sod section 'to the top (see plans and details attached) The - proposed bank section
will ,extend approximately 13 feet channelward of the existing stream bank in the'most�severely eroded areas
(downstream), towards the upstream end the proposed bank will taper back towards the existing bank The proposed
bank will be vegetated with herbaceous, species and live-stakes
Downstream of the proposed reconstructed right bank, the left bank will be stabilized; and a large gravel bar will be
partially removed This work will involve approximately 90 linear feet of channel and will consist of adding a few small
boulders and'cobbleto stabilize the undercut bank area and shaping,the remaihing eroded banks. The gravel /cobble bar
that has,formed in the right half of the channelwill be partially removed and shaped to align with the shifted channel
section upstream The thalweg will be shifted from the left bank to the center or right of center All disturbed areas on the
left bank will be stabilizedwith icoir matting and seeded6with a riparian seed mix (see attached plans and.details)
Construction seguenang will be specified to minimize the amount of instream work necessary (see attached)
Gravel /cobble berms will be installed,to isolate the work areas for the boulder toe wall and the left bank stabilization
activities, the construction of the,J -Hook vanes will need to occur in flowing'water

Impact Justification and Mitigation
1.
Avoidance and Minimization
1 a
Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project.
The,'mitial proiect concept was to construct a concrete retaining wall adjacent to the Owens'Park access road and this
project moved all the way to bid phase before it was re- evaluated to see if a more natural approach could provide the
same level of protection The current plan reflects this more natural design approach The,current plan shows a hard
armored toebut with vegetated bio-engineered slopes above The existing stream alignment is causing accelerated, left
bank erosion downstream of the severely eroded-right bank,because the channel,has migrated to the right, there is a
sharp bend to the left that is causing the left bank problems The proposed work will shift the upstream portion of the
channel back to the left, eliminatinq the sharp bend and eliminating the stress on the left bank
b
Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed`impacts through construction techniques
Beetree Creek'is too big to pump the flow around the work area but construction, sequencing will minimize the amount of
mstream,work needed to complete the,iob

MAP INFORMATION
The soil surveys that compnse your AOI were mapped at 1 12,000
Warning Sod Map may not be valid at this scale
Enlargement of maps beyond the scale of mapping can cause
misunderstanding of the detail of mapping and accuracy of soil line
placement The maps do not show the small areas of contrasting
sods that could have,been shown at,a more detailed<scale
Please rely on the bar scale on each map sheet for map
measurements

Coordinate System Web Mercator (EPSG 3857)
Maps from the Web Sod Survey are based on the Web Mercator
projection, which preserves direction and shape but distorts
distance and area A projection that preserves area, such as the
Albers equal -area conic projection, should be used if more accurate
calculations of distance or area are required
This product is generated from the USDA -NRCS certified data as of
the version date(s) listed below
Sod Survey Area Buncombe County, North Carolina
Survey Area Data Version 9, Dec 14, 2013
Soil map units are labeled (as space allows)for map scales 1 50,000
or larger
Date(a) aerial images were photographed Oct 15, 2011 —Dec 9,
2011
The orthophoto or other base map on which the,soil lines were
compiled and digitized probably differs from the background
imagery displayed on these maps As a result, some minor shifting
of map unit boundanes may be evident

Photo One: View looking to the north and upstream from the right eroded
bank of Beetree Creek. Access road to Owens Park is seen on the left side
of photo. Severe bank erosion is visible in the foreground. Mapped wetland
area is visible on the right side of photo in the dense vegetation; floodplain
wetland unit. Exposed stormwater pipe visible in center of photo.
Photo Three: View looking south and downstream on Beetree Creek.
Lower end of severe right bank erosion ending near the leaning tree. Riprap
material seen on the right has been put in as temporary streambank
armoring. Stream channel makes hard left turn near leaning tree which has
caused undercutting along the left bank downstream; not seen in photo.
Photo Two: View of severely eroded right bank on Beetree Creek. Exposed
stormwater pipe is visible. Pipe is damaged and will be repaired during
reconstructed bank stabilization.
Photo Four: View looking upstream fifty feet below where Photo Three
was taken; leaning tree can be seen in center of photo as a reference. Hard
turn in stream channel can be seen in background causing undercutting and
erosion of left bank on the right of photo. Additionally, large gravel bar can
be seen on the left side of photo; to be graded back removing obstruction.

Construction Notes
1. Grade. back streambank to allow access to toe of slope, create a
berm using non - erodible materials to isolate the work area to
prevent sedimentation of river.
2. Outer edge of boulder wall and top elevation of boulder wall
will be field located by engineer or designer.
3. Footer rocks for boulder wall shall be installed 2' below
streambed unless bedrock is encountered.
4. Geotextile non -woven filter fabric (Mirafi 1100N or similar)
shall be installed between boulder wall and soil bank, washed
ballast stone (3 -6 ") shall be placed behind boulderwall to fill
voids.
5. Construct boulder wall to deigned elevation; wall slope should
be roughly 0.5:1.
6. Place coir mat geotextile (900 Coir Mator equivalent) over
header boulder with back edge anchored behind boulders using
dead stout stakes. Set batter board with desired soil lift face
height (12 " -16 ") along front edge and drape coir mat
overhanging board. Place topsoil fill to designed vertical depth
(12 " -16 ") and,tamp firmly to 85 -90 percent standard Proctor
density (ASTM.D698) Pull coir mat back to existing slope face
covering soil lift(and staple at 2 -foot intervals. Repeat process
until designed soil lift section is complete. Maintain 2:1 slope
through soil lift section based on soil lift height and setback
distance between lifts.
7. Add topsoil fill above soil lift section in compacted layers to
tie into top bank elevation; maintain 2:1 slope. Stabilize with
erosion control mat (Double sided Straw Erosion Blanket) and
staked according to manufacturers recommendations Seed
topsoil fill slope and soil lift section with erosion control mix and
overseed with Native NC Mountains Riparian seed mix (ERNST
seed mix #304 or similar).
8. Live stakes shall be soaked in water 24 -48 hours prior to
installation. Live stakes shall be planted in the dormant season
(October 1 through May 1). Live stakes to be tamped into upper
edge of lift face at right angles to the slope, minimum depth of
18" with 6" of stake end protruding from the ground Live stakes
should be spaced at 2' intervals along soil lift horizontal rows.

CONSTRUCTION NOTES
1 Excavate trench ,along bottom of stream bed
to bankfull elevation on the stream bank for
rock vane. Trench depth should be excavated
to proposed footer elevation
1/3 2. Place one course of footer rocks to proposed
BANKFUU. footer depth (2' below streambed) No gaps
between boulders.
3. Install filter fabric, (Mirafi 1000N or equivilant).
4. Place coarse backfill upstream of footer
boulders (washed gravel or stream gravel).
5. Install header rocks on top of footer rocks so
that half of each header rock overlaps the
footer rock; header boulders should rest on
coarse baccfill. Header boulders should span
seams of footers. Offset the header rocks in
an upsteam direction. No gaps between
boulders.
6. Rode vane to intersect the stream bank, at or
near benkfull elevation (shown as 'A' on
details) Sill rocks to ,be embedded 4 -6 feet In
stream bank.
7. Hook boulders should be placed atop footer
boulders with a gap of approximate I to, I
— HEADER RO S boulder dimaeter (6 " —B') between each header
rock. Hook boulder terminal elevation per
design (shown as 'C' on details).
8. Filter fabric (Mirofi 1000N) shall be used Ito
seal the gaps between boulders and under
coarse bockfnll upstream of the vane arm. No
filter fabric should be visible in the finished
work; fold, tram. or tuck edges as needed.
MATERIAL SPECIFICATIONS_
1. Boulders: Footer and header rocks must be
large enough to achieve design height and
resist movement during peak flow events.
Boulders should be rectangular and uniform in
shape and size.
2. Coarse aggregate: Salvaged alluvial material
during trenching can be used or washed
railroad ballast
3 Filter fabric: 10 -12 oz. non —woven geo— textile
specific to aggregate separation (Miraft 1000N).
