EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Davis Branch stream restoration project is located near the town of Marshville, Union County, North Carolina. Prior to restoration, active use of the land for cattle grazing and hay resulted in impaired, channelized, eroding, incised and entrenched stream channels. The project reaches include the restoration of 1,799 linear feet of the Davis Branch main stem, enhancement of 1,229 linear feet of the main stem, preservation of 766 linear feet of the main stem, restoration of 459 linear feet of an unnamed tributary (UT I) and enhancement of 396 linear feet of the same tributary. Restoration of the project streams, completed during April 2009, provided the desired habitat and stability features required to improve and enhance the ecologic health of the streams for the long -term. The following report documents the Year 5 annual monitoring for this project. Vegetative monitoring was completed in September 2013, following the Carolina Vegetation Survey methodology. Stem counts completed at ten vegetation plots show an average density of 551 stems /acre in Year 5. This is a slight decrease from the Year 4 total of 591 stems /acre and Year 3 total of 741 stems /acre for the site but is a marked increase over the Year 2 average of 454 stems/ acre for the site. This density meets the success criteria of 260 stems /acre after five years of monitoring. All individual plots had stem densities meeting the minimum requirement. Additionally, a large number of recruit stems were found in each plot. To address the issue of low stem counts for planted stems observed in the fall of 2010, specific areas where targeted for supplemental planting in the spring 2011 within the riparian corridors, concentrated along UTI and the portion of the Davis Branch main stem downstream from the confluence with UT 1. This planting effort is reflected in the 2011 increase in average stem density for planted stems across the site. Some natural mortality occurred over the dry summer months of 2012. This is reflected in the smaller number of stems /acre observed in Year 4 and Year 5. In 2011, there was a minor area of the riparian corridor along the right bank of the main stem that was exhibiting denudation. This area is situated between stations 8 +00 and 10 +00. A that time, it was labeled as a vegetation problem area of low concern because there was no evidence that denudation was affecting stream stability. The lack of vegetation appeared to be attributed to a natural condition. It is situated in the understory of a secondary growth forest where there is competition for light during certain portions of the day. It was expected that shade tolerant recruits would establish along this section of stream in future years. Indeed, this is what happened in Year 4. Therefore, this area was previously has been taken off of the Vegetation Problem Area Map in Appendix A. The visual stream stability assessment revealed that the majority of stream features are functioning as designed and constructed on the Davis Branch main stem and UT 1. Dimensional measurements of the monumented cross- sections remain stable when compared to as -built conditions. The comparison of the Year I thru 5 long -term stream monitoring profile data shows stability with minimal change from as -built conditions. The substrate of the constructed riffles remains stable, with a median particle distribution in the very coarse gravel range. The pool substrate remains stable as well, with median particle sizes ranging from silt to very coarse gravel, based on Year 5 substrate analysis. Based on the crest gage network installed on the project reaches, at least 3 bankfull events have been recorded since construction was completed. One bankfull events was recorded along the main stem in Year 5. The tables below summarize the geomorphological changes along the restoration and enhancement level 1 reaches for each stream.

The project includes restoration activities along Davis Branch main stem and one unnamed tributary stream, designated as UT1 throughout this document. The directions to the project site are as follows: From U.S. Route 74 in Marshville, North Carolina, turn onto North Elm Street (SR 205) and travel 5.3 miles to Olive Branch Road (SR 1006). Turn right onto Olive Branch Road and travel 3.9 miles to 9406 Olive Branch Road (Edward and Deborah Staton Residence). Turn right onto the Staton's driveway, the dedicated egress /ingress access to the recorded EEP Conservation Easement Areas on the Davis Branch and Unnamed Tributary, Stream Restoration Project. B. Project Structure, Mitigation Type, Approach and Objectives Pre- restoration land use surrounding the project streams involved cattle pasture and hay land. Cattle had direct access to the project stream reaches for drinking water, and in areas where established riparian canopy exist, cattle frequently accessed the project corridors for shade. In doing so, the cattle had denuded and destabilized streambanks due to grazing, browsing and associated hoof shear. The unstable streambanks and denuded riparian corridors were contributing large quantities of nutrient laden sediment to the project stream reaches. Eroded sediment from the unstable streambanks was transported downstream and off site into the larger Davis Branch, Gourdvine Creek and Richardson Creek watersheds. Runoff from agricultural land use together with cattle intrusion along the project corridors provided direct nutrient pathways into the project stream reaches. Pre - restoration, the upper reach of UT had sparse riparian vegetation along its stream corridor. The lower third of UT1 and the upper Davis Branch main stem reaches had established hardwood forested riparian corridors. However, cattle intrusion had denuded herbaceous groundcover, and adversely impaired shrub, mid -story and canopy vegetation. Prior to restoration, a number of anthropogenic factors impacted the stream channel and riparian corridor along the impaired upper main stem restoration reach, resulting in an unstable, moderately incised and braided condition. In its pre- existing impaired state, upper Davis Branch was transitioning from E4 /1 channel dimensions to a multiple thread Rosgen D4 /1 stream type, albeit under incised conditions along the reach. Deep channel incision was attributed to uncontrolled cattle intrusion (herbaceous groundcover grazing, shrub vegetation browsing and hoof shear) resulting in a denuded riparian landscape and destabilized, eroding streambanks. Multiple thread channels, created by breaches that rerouted the channel around woody debris jams (avulsions) were present at locations throughout the reach. In addition to cattle intrusion, channelization and an average channel slope of 1.58 percent increased critical shear stresses acting on the streambed and banks during bankfull flows. Bank height ratios (BHR) calculated at impaired conditions cross - sections ranged from 1.38 to 1.41 (moderately incised). Evans, Mechwart, Hambleton & Tilton, Inc.

ECOSYSTEM ENHANCEMENT PROGRAM Date: December. 2013 Not To Scale r� Enha °nnt PRWRAM A number of anthropogenic factors also impacted the stream channel and riparian corridor along the impaired lower main stem Enhancement Level I (E -1) reach, resulting in its pre- restoration channelized, deeply incised, eroding impaired condition. Bank height ratios calculated at impaired conditions cross - sections ranged from 1.58 to 1.86 (deeply incised). Deep channel incision resulted from steep channel gradient (2.16 percent), linear channel alignment (channel sinuosity = 1.06), mean bankfull flow velocities approaching 5.5 ft /sec, high shear velocity (u* = 0.93 ft /sec), and extremely high nearbank critical shear stress (i, = 1.48 lbs /ft2 ). In addition to unstable channel hydraulics and morphology, uncontrolled cattle intrusion exacerbated streambank and streambed erosion. The cumulative effect of these factors resulted in nearly 5 feet high, vertical eroding streambanks on the lower Davis Branch (E -1) main stem reach. A number of anthropogenic factors impacted the stream channel and riparian corridor along the impaired UT1 reach, resulting in a channelized, entrenched and deeply incised condition. In its pre- existing impaired state, UT1 maintained E4 /lb channel morphology, albeit under incised conditions. Bank height ratios calculated at impaired riffles were 2.47, 3.67 and 2.32, respectively, with a mean BHR of 2.82. The extreme degree of channel incision leading to entrenchment was attributed to steep profile gradient (2.3 percent), linear channel alignment (sinuosity = 1.09) high bankfull mean velocity (6.58 ft /sec), high shear velocity (u* = 0.68 ft /sec), high nearbank critical shear stress (ic = 0.85 lbs /ft2) and uncontrolled cattle intrusion. The cumulative effects of these impacts resulted in nearly 4 feet high, vertical, eroding streambanks on the impaired UT reach. As discussed in the Restoration Plan for Davis Branch and UT1, the mitigation goals and objectives for the project involved restoring stable physical and biological function of the project streams beyond pre- restoration (impaired) conditions. Impaired conditions consisted of channelized, eroding, incised and entrenched stream channels. Nutrient and sediment loading from agricultural land use and runoff, together with vegetative denuding and destabilized streambanks associated with hoof shear resulting from uncontrolled cattle access and was evident. The specific mitigation goals and objectives proposed and achieved for the project are listed below. • Stable stream channels with features inherent of ecologically diverse environments, with appropriate streambed features including appropriately spaced pool and riffle sequences, and riparian corridors planted with a diversity of indigenous vegetation. • Reference reach boundary conditions were superimposed on the impaired project reaches in the restoration design and construction of improvements. • Constructed stream channels with the appropriate geometry and gradient to convey bankfull flows while entraining suspended sediment (wash load) and bedload materials readily available to the streams. • Restored connection between the bankfull channels and their floodplains, by constructing stable stream channels, protected by vegetation and jute coir fabric to prevent erosion. • Minimized future land use impacts to project stream reaches by conveying perpetual, restrictive conservation easements to the State of North Carolina, including stream corridor protection via livestock exclusion fencing at the surveyed and recorded conservation easement boundaries, with gates at the edge of the riparian corridor on river right and left at reserved conservation easement crossings adjacent to active hay and pasture land. The restoration of Davis Branch main stem and UT 1 met project goals and objectives set forth in the restoration plan, by providing desired habitat and stability features required to enhance and provide Evans, Mechwart, Hambleton & Tilton, Inc. December 2013 Monitoring Report — Davis Branch Monitoring Year 5 of 5 EEP Contract # D06054 -F Page 5 long -term ecologic health for the project reaches. More specifically, the completed restoration project accomplished the enhancements listed below. Davis Branch Main stem: • Reversed the effects of channelization using a Priority Level I/Level II (PI/II) restoration and E -I approaches; restoration increased the average width/depth ratio from 9.1 to 18.8 on the PUII reach and from 6.9 to 23.8 on the E -I reach after three years of monitoring. • Restored natural pattern to the PUPII reach channel alignment, increasing sinuosity from 1.12 to 1.29 on the PUII reach, while maintaining a stable relationship between the valley slope and bankfull slope (the bankfull slope was steeper than the valley slope prior to restoration and is now less than the valley slope post- restoration). Stable pattern, profile and dimension were restored based on extrapolation from reference reach boundary conditions. On the main stem E -I reach, profile and dimension were restored based upon reference reach boundary conditions. Pattern (sinuosity = 1.06) was not modified). • Stabilized eroding streambanks by constructing appropriately sized channels with stable streambank slopes built using a combination of embedded stone, grade control structures, topsoil, herbaceous seeding, mulch, natural fabrics and hearty vegetation including live branch (3 -foot spacings), bareroot (4 -foot spacings) and 1- gallon tree (100 -foot spacings) plantings. • The average Bank Height Ratio was decreased from 1.41 to 1.00 on the PUII reach and 1.86 to 1.00 on the E -I reach, respectively (i.e., deeply incised to stable). • Restored connection between the bankfull channel and the adjacent floodprone area by raising the bankfull channel to the elevation of the adjacent floodplain. The restored main stem PUII and E -I reach entrenchment ratios range from 3.34 to 6.85 after four years of monitoring. • Created instream aquatic habitat features, including appropriately spaced pool and riffle sequences, and a stable transition of the main stem reach E -I thalweg to the invert of the existing channel at the bottom of the main stem project reach. • Revegetated the riparian corridor with indigenous canopy, mid -story, shrub and herbaceous ground cover species, and preserved existing forested riparian corridors where present. • Protected the riparian corridors by placing livestock exclusion fencing at the edge of the perpetual, recorded conservation easement boundary. Davis Branch UT1: • Reversed the effects of channelization through a combination of Enhancement Level II (E -II) and Priority Level I (PI) restoration techniques. The average width/depth ratio of the restored UT1 project reach was 20.62 after four years of monitoring. Stable dimension and profile grade control was restored on the E -II reach (profile station 0 +00 to 3 +96). Stable pattern, profile and dimension were restored on the PI reach (profile station 3 +96 to 8 +54) based on extrapolation from reference reach to restored reach boundary conditions. • Restored stable channel pattern on the PI reach, increasing sinuosity from 1.09 to 1.34. • Stabilized eroding streambanks by providing appropriately sized channels with stable streambank slopes. The average Bank Height Ratio has been reduced from 2.82 to 1.00 (deeply incised to stable). Evans, Mechwart, Hambleton & Tilton, Inc. December 2013 Monitoring Report — Davis Branch Monitoring Year 5 of 5 EEP Contract # D06054 -F Page 6 • Improved the connection between the restored stream channel and the adjacent floodprone area by raising the bankfull channel to the elevation of the adjacent floodplain. The completed restoration increased the average entrenchment ratio from 3.63 to 5.22 after four years of monitoring. • Created stable channel dimensions, substrate and grade control structures (rock sills) on the E -II reach; Created stable pattern, profile and dimension, including appropriately spaced riffle, run, pool and glide sequences, together with a stable transition of the UT1 PI reach thalweg at its confluence with the Davis Branch main stem. • Revegetated the riparian corridor with indigenous canopy, mid- story, shrub and herbaceous ground cover, preserving existing forested riparian corridors where present. • Protected the riparian corridor by placing livestock exclusion fencing at the edge of the perpetual, recorded conservation easement boundary.

PROJECT CONDITION AND MONITORING RESULTS A. Vegetation Assessment 1. Soil Data Soil information was obtained from the NRCS Soil Survey of Union County, North Carolina (USDA NRCS, January, 1996). The predominant soil type mapped on the Davis Branch main stem is the Cid channery silt loam, 1 to 5 percent slopes. This map unit consists mainly of moderately deep, moderately well drained and somewhat poorly drained, nearly level and gently sloping Cid and similar soils on flats, on ridges in the uplands, in depressions and in headwater drainageways. Typically, the surface layer is light brownish gray channery silt loam 4 inches thick, while the subsurface layer is a pale yellow channery silt loam 5 inches thick. The subsoil is 18 inches thick. Weathered, fractured slate bedrock is encountered at a depth of about 27 inches. Hard, fractured slate bedrock is encountered at a depth of about 32 inches. The depth to hard bedrock ranges from 20 to 40 inches. Included with the Cid soils on site are areas of Badin channery silt loam (BaB), 2 to 8 percent slopes, mapped on river left along the main stem Priority Level PH restoration reach and along the main stem preservation reach. The Badin map unit consists mainly of moderately deep, well drained undulating soils on convex upland ridges that are highly dissected by intermittent drainageways. Typically, the surface layer is brown Channery silt loam 7 inches thick. The subsoil is 21 inches thick. Weathered, fractured slate bedrock is encountered at a depth of about 28 inches. Hard, fractured slate bedrock is at a depth of about 41 inches. An area of Badin Channery silty clay loam, 2 to 8 percent, eroded (BdC2) is present along the lower (E -I) main stem reach on Davis Branch. The soil taxonomy is essentially identical to the BaB map unit. Goldston - Badin complex soils (map symbols - GsB and GsQ, 2 to 8 and 8 to 15 percent slopes, respectively, are the mapped units on UT 1. GsB soils are mapped along the upper third of the project reach. GsC soils are mapped to the confluence of UT 1 with Davis Branch main stem. The GsB mapped soil unit consists mainly of shallow and moderately deep, well drained to excessively drained, undulating Goldston and Badin soils on ridges in upland areas, as opposed to the GsC (2 to 8 percent slopes) soils mapped on side slopes. The topography is highly dissected by intermittent drainageways. The GsB unit is about 45 percent Goldston soil and about 40 percent Badin soil, while the GsC unit is about 55 percent Goldston soil and about 30 percent Badin soil. Data on the soils series found within and near the project site is summarized in Table VI. 2. Vegetative Problem Areas Vegetative Problem Areas are defined as areas either lacking vegetation or containing populations of exotic vegetation. There was an area of the riparian corridor along the right bank of the main stem that was exhibiting significant denudation in 2011. This area was situated between stations 8 +00 and 10 +00. In Year 3, it was labeled as a vegetation problem area of low concern because there was no evidence that the denudation was currently affecting stream stability. At the time, the lack of vegetation in this area appeared to be an exacerbation of a natural condition. It is situated in the understory of a secondary growth forest where there is competition for light during certain portions Evans, Mechwart, Hambleton & Tilton, Inc.

It was expected that shade tolerant recruits would establish along this section of stream in future years. Indeed, this is what appeared to be happening in Year 4 as well as Year 5. Table VI.

The sparse vegetation issue has improved from Year 2 monitoring to Year 5 monitoring, as native vegetation continues to spread across the project site. Because of the previously mentioned reasons, all of these locations of sparse vegetation are not considered problem areas at this time. A trajectory toward an increase in stabilizing vegetation cover between monitoring Years 2 and 5 is depicted in the Year 5 fixed station photos (Appendix B). All of the vegetation plots had planted woody stem densities that were high enough to meet the required stem counts. Densities of planted woody species are discussed in the Stem Counts section of this report. As a result of this data, there are no problem areas identified along the main stem and UT 1 to report in Table VII. Table VII.

Vegetation Problem Area Plan View No vegetation problem areas of concern were noted for the project reaches in monitoring year 5 and the Vegetation Problem Area Map has been excluded from Appendix A. 4. Stem Counts A summary of the stem count data for each species arranged by plot is shown in Table VIII. Table VIIIa provides the survival information for planted species, while Table VIIlb provides the total stem count for the plots, including all planted and recruit stems. This data was compiled from the Evans, Mechwart, Hambleton & Tilton, Inc. December 2013 Monitoring Report — Davis Branch Monitoring Year 5 of 5 EEP Contract # D06054 -F Page 17 information collected on each plot using the CVS -EEP Protocol for Recording Vegetation, Version 4.0. Additional data tables generated using the CVS -EEP format are included in Appendix A. All vegetation plots are labeled as VP on Figure 2. The average stem density of planted species for the site far exceeds the minimum criteria of 260 stems per acre after five years. Each individual plot also has a stem density above the minimum. A substantial number of recruit stems have been found across the site, increasing the total stem density by approximately 110 %. To address the issue of low Year 2 stem counts for planted individuals, specific areas were targeted during the Spring of 2011 and 2012 for supplemental planting within the Davis Branch and Unnamed Tributary riparian corridors, which included the deficient sample plots and surrounding areas within the buffer. The majority of these plantings were concentrated along UT1 and the portion of the Davis Branch EI main stem reach downstream from the confluence with UTL Deficient portions of the riparian corridors were supplemented with additional native tree and shrub plantings. These supplemental plantings followed the specifications of the project Restoration Plan and Mitigation Plan documents. These plantings were successful as all of the individual plots have a stem density above the minimum in Year 5. Large (3 gallon potted material) and small (bare -root) woody stock was utilized in performing the remedial plantings. The larger saplings have a more developed root system and will thus be better able to compete with the existing vegetation. Bare root individuals were placed along UT and the downstream end of Davis Branch main stem where shade and vegetation competition is relatively nonexistent. A table describing the species and approximated quantities of vegetation installed in the spring of 2011 is included in Appendix A. 5. Vegetation Problem Area Photos Since no vegetation problem areas were noted in monitoring year 5, vegetation problem area photographs are not included in Appendix A.

Stream Assessment 1. Hydrologic Criteria Two crest -stage stream gages were installed along on the project reaches, one each on the Davis Branch main stem and UT1. The locations of the crest -stage stream gages are shown on the monitoring plan view (Figure 2). A bankfull event was recorded during Year 5 for the crest gauge along the main stem; however, no bankfull event was recorded during this past year of monitoring for UT1 due to an inability to open the gauge for observation. This brings the total number of bankfull events to four along the main stem and three along UT 1, as presented in Table IX. Photographs of the crest gages observed after bankfull events are provided in Appendix B. Table IX.

For monitoring year 3, the crest gage on the main stem and UT1 were observed on September 14, 2011 and indicated a bankfull event at a level of 6 and 3/8 inches and 6 and 5/8 inches, respectfully, above the bottom of the crest gages. These crest gages are set at or above the bankfull elevation of each stream channel. The most likely date for the recorded bankfull event was after the precipitation event that resulted in the peak stage and discharge recorded at USGS Gage 02124692 Goose Creek at Fairview, NC, on August 1, 2011. On that day, the recorded peak stage elevation was 6.01 feet and the maximum peak discharge for this day at the same station was 759 ft3 /s. Since this is the largest precipitation event of significance since the crest gages were read in 2010, it is likely to be related to the bankfull event recorded by both crest gages within the project reach. This particular gage lies approximately 15 miles west of the project site. The discharge and gage height recorded at the Fairview station for Year 3 monitoring are shown on the graphs below.

Stream Problem Areas There were no areas of concern identified during the visual assessment of the stream for Year 5, as indicated in Table X. Table X. Stream Problem Areas Davis Branch Stream Restoration / EEP Project No. D06054 -F Feature Issue Station Numbers Suspected Cause Photo Number NA tNA NA NA Stream problem areas in Year 3 were isolated to a few meander bends along the Davis Branch main stem and UT1. In these places, the right and left banks of the meander bends had little established vegetation to stabilize the slopes. In Years 4 and 5, these areas have become increasingly covered with stabilizing vegetation. These areas were considered of low concern in Year 3, as the bends were not in a state of progressive erosion. Additionally, vegetation continued to infiltrate many of the bare areas, resulting in an increased root density and providing stabilization for the stream banks. In monitoring year 5 the vegetation has become fully established along these slopes. Streamside vegetation has continued to increase in density over the past year, allowing these stream problem areas to be de- listed from Table X and taken off the Stream Problem Area Map in Year 5. Evidence of the increase in streamside vegetation can be seen in the Fixed Station Photos in Appendix B. Evans, Mechwart, Hambleton & Tilton, Inc.

Stream Problem Areas Plan View Since no stream problem areas of concern were noted during the monitoring year 5 stream assessment, the stream problem area plan view map is not included in Appendix B. 4. Stream Problem Areas Photos Since no stream problem areas of concern were noted during the Year 5 stream assessment, stream problem area photos are not included in Appendix B. 5. Fixed Station Photos Photographs were taken at each established photograph station in September 2013. These photographs are provided in Appendix B. 6. Stability Assessment Table The visual stream assessment was performed to determine the percentage of stream features that remain in a state of stability after the fourth year of monitoring. The visual assessment for each reach is summarized in Table XIa through Table XIc. This summary was compiled from the more comprehensive Table B1, included in Appendix B. Only those structures included in the as -built survey were assessed during monitoring and reported in the tables. Table XIa.

Rock -toe channel protection, constructed riffles and pools are functioning as designed and built. Due to increased density of streamside vegetation, previous meander bank erosion along the enhancement reach of the Davis Branch main stem and UT 1 has decreased markedly from Year 2 to Year 5 and been eliminated from consideration as on -going problem areas. In addition to the meander category, there were a few pools and riffles that did not match the as -built condition as presented in the graphs of the longitudinal profile (see Appendix B). It is assumed that the rock substrate is shifting over time, evolving into that which better matches a stable channel morphology. The pool and riffle features are all still present and functional. Additionally, a few Evans, Mechwart, Hambleton & Tilton, Inc. December 2013 Monitoring Report — Davis Branch Monitoring Year 5 of 5 EEP Contract # D06054 -F Page 25 pools on the main stem restoration reach and UT1 exhibited minor aggradation in Year 4.

Quantitative Measures Graphic interpretations of cross - sections, profiles and substrate particle distributions are presented in Appendix B. A summary of the baseline morphology for the site is included in Tables XII and XIH for comparison with the monitoring data shown in the appendix. The stream pattern data provided for Year 5 is the same as the data provided from the As -Built survey, as pattern has not changed based on the Year 5 stream surveys and visual field assessment. Bedform features continue to evolve along the restored reaches as shown on the long -term longitudinal profiles; however, due to the `no flow' condition observed during monitoring year 5, the profile information documented in Table XII for all three stream segments remains the same from Evans, Mechwart, Hambleton & Tilton, Inc. December 2013 Monitoring Report — Davis Branch Monitoring Year 5 of 5 EEP Contract # D06054 -F Page 26 Year 4, as does the water- surface (channel bed) slope. Dimensional measurements of the monumented cross - sections remain stable when compared to as -built conditions. Riffle lengths, slopes and pool to pool spacings are representative of reference conditions. A few parameter measurements have changed when comparing the monitoring years 1 thru 5 data with As -built conditions. As in previous years, the longitudinal profile survey in Year 5 continues to detect micro - features that were not identified during the as -built survey. Pool and riffle features are developing in the restored and enhanced reaches as the stream distributes its bedload and redistributes the constructed substrate during high flow events. The Year 5 stream profile graphs show stability with minimal change from as -built conditions, with the exception of the aforementioned microfeatures. The constructed riffles of Davis Branch main stem remain stable, with a median particle distribution in the very coarse gravel range. The pool substrate remains stable as well, with median particle sizes ranging from silt to very course gravel based on Year 5 substrate analysis. Median particle distributions for the pools of the main stem have fallen since 2011 (Year 3). This is a sign that, since construction, enough time has passed to allow smaller particles to settle naturally into the channel and enough flow events have occurred to sort the developing substrate. This is a sign of increasing substrate stability for the Davis Branch main stem. The substrate is therefore stable in Year 5 and remedial maintenance work is not warranted. A shift in particle distribution along the enhancement reach of Davis Branch resulted in a classification change from 0/1 (as- built) to C4 /1 (Years 1 -4); however, the Year 5 classification for this reach has returned back to 0/1. This shift in particle distribution is fairly subtle and does not suggest inherent stream channel instability. The reach composite for UT 1 is the same as the riffle composite for this stream, as both monumented cross sections are riffles. In Year 5, the median D50 is 26.1 mm and falls within the coarse gravel range. As with the main stem, the change in riffle particle distribution and median size are subtle and does not suggest inherent stream channel instability. IV. METHODOLOGY Year 5 vegetation monitoring was conducted in September 2013 using the CVS -EEP Protocol for Recording Vegetation, Version 4.0 (Lee, M.T., Peet, RK., Roberts, S.R., Wentworth, T.R. 2006). Year 5 stream monitoring was conducted in September 2013 in order to provide adequate time between the Year 4 and Year 5 monitoring surveys. Evans, Mechwart, Hambleton & Tilton, Inc.
