1.0 Project Summary
1.1Project Location and Description
The Puncheon Fork Mitigation Project (Project)(SAW-2018-00094), a project within the RES French
Broad 05 Umbrella Mitigation Bank, is located within a rural watershed in Madison County, North Carolina
approximately five miles northwest of Swiss, NC.The Project lies within the French Broad River Basin,
and United States Geological Survey (USGS) 12-digit hydrologic unit code (HUC) 060101051001. The
Project is being designed to help meet compensatory mitigation requirements for stream and wetland
impacts in the HUC 06010105. The Project is in the Southern Crystalline Ridges and Mountains of the Blue
Ridge ecoregion.
The Project area is comprised of a 13.15-acre easement involving Puncheon Fork and three of its unnamed
tributaries as well as a segment of Hampton Creek, whichalldrain into Upper Big Laurel Creek and,
eventually, the French Broad River.The Project is accessible from Puncheon Fork Road.The GPS
coordinates of the site are 35.960276°N, -82.533400°W.
The streamsand wetlands proposedfor restoration and enhancement have been significantly impacted by
long-term agricultural practices, specifically livestock husbandry, which has contributedtodegraded stream
channelsand the lack of riparianwetland andbuffervegetationthroughout the Project. Proposed
improvements to the Project will help meet the river basin needs expressed in the 2009 DMS French Broad
River Basin Restoration Priorities (RBRP)Report as well as ecological improvements to the riparian
corridor within the easement.
1.2Project Goals and Objectives
Through the comprehensive analysis of the Project’s maximum functional uplift using a Function Based
Framework, specific, attainable goals and objectives will be realized by the Puncheon Fork Mitigation
Project. These goals clearly address the degraded water quality and nutrient input from farming that were
identified as major watershed stressors in the 2009 French Broad RBRP.
The project goals are:
Reduce sediment inputs into streams;
Reduce nutrient and fecal coliform inputs into streams;
Improve aquatic and terrestrial habitat, including trout habitat;
Improve floodplain connectivity;
Restore and enhance appropriate riparian plant communities;
Enhance ecological structure and function of existing wetlands.
The project goals will be addressed through the following project objectives:
Design and reconstruct stream channels that will convey bankfull flows while maintaining stable
dimension, profile, and planform based on modeling, watershed conditions, and reference reach
conditions;
Permanently exclude livestock from stream channels,their associated buffers, and wetlands by
installing approximately 11,960linear feet of livestock exclusion fencing;
Add in-stream structures and bank stabilization measures to protect restored and enhanced streams;
Install habitat features such as brush toes, woody materials, boulder clusters, and pools of varying
depths to restored and enhanced streams;
Create step-pool sequences and scour pools that will promote trout habitation in designated Trout
Waters;
Puncheon Fork1Year 2Monitoring Report
Mitigation SiteNovember2022

Grade banks to promote development of gravels bars, serving as potentialspawning habitatfor
trout
Reduce bank height ratios and increase entrenchment ratiosin restored streams;
Increase forested riparian buffers to at least 30feet on both sides of the channel along the Project
reaches, including existing wetlands,with a forestedplant community;
Treat exotic invasiveplantspecies;
Establish a permanent conservation easement on the sitethat will prevent future land usechanges.
1.3Project Success Criteria
The success criteria for the Project will follow the 2016 USACE Wilmington District Stream and Wetland
Compensatory Mitigation Update, the Puncheon Fork Final Mitigation Planand subsequent agency
guidance. Specific success criteria components are presented below.
StreamRestoration Success Criteria
Four bankfull flow events must be documented within the seven-year monitoring period. The bankfull
events must occur in separate years. Otherwise, the stream monitoring will continue until four bankfull
events have been documented in separate years.
Stream reaches will be monitored to document intermittent or seasonal surface flow. This will be
accomplished through direct observation and the use of stream gauge transducers with data loggers(stage
recorder). Reaches must demonstrate a minimum of 30 consecutive days of flow. Three stage recorders will
be installed on Reaches JB2-A, JB4-B and JB6-A.
There should be little change in as-built cross sections. If changes do take place, they should be evaluated
to determine if they represent a movement toward a less stable condition (for example down-cutting or
erosion) or are minor changes that represent an increase in stability (for example settling, vegetative
changes, deposition along the banks, or decrease in width/depth ratio). Cross sections shall be classified
using the Rosgen stream classification method, and all monitored cross sections should fall within the
quantitative parameters defined for channels of the design stream type. Bank height ratio shall not exceed
1.2, and the entrenchment ratio shall be above 2.2within restored riffle cross sections. Channel stability
should be demonstrated through a minimum of four bankfull events documented in the seven-year
monitoring period.
Digital images will be used to subjectively evaluate channel aggradation or degradation, bank erosion,
success of riparian vegetation, and effectiveness of erosion control measures. Longitudinal images should
not indicate the absence of developing bars within the channel or an excessive increase in channel depth.
Lateral images should not indicate excessive erosion or continuing degradation of the banks over time. A
series of images over time should indicate successional maturation of riparian vegetation. Cross section,
vegetation plot, and stage recorderlocations will be used as permanent digital image stations.
Vegetation Success Criteria
Specific and measurable success criteria for plant density within the riparian buffers on the Project follow
IRT Guidance. The interim measures of vegetative success for the Project arethe survival of at least 320
planted three-year old trees per acre at the end of Year 3, 260 trees per acre with an average height of six
feet at the end of Year 5, and the final vegetative success criteria is 210 trees per acre with an average height
of eightfeet at the end of Year 7. Volunteer trees arecounted, identified to species, and included in the
yearly monitoring reports, but are notincluded inthe success criteria of total planted stemsuntil they are

present in the plot for greater than two seasons. Moreover, any single species can only account for up to 50
percent of the required number of stems within any vegetation plot. Any stems in excess of 50 percent will
be shown in the monitoring table but will not be used to demonstrate success.

Wetland Enhancement Approach
All jurisdictional wetlands within the Project boundary (WA-WV) wereenhanced, primarily through tree
planting and cattle exclusion. Approximately 11,960 feet of fencing ensuresthat cattle will no longer have
access to these wetlands, and a diverse mix of native trees appropriate for the community type wasplanted.
However, some small wetland areas (WH, WI, WJ, WL, WM, WN, WO) werecredited at a lower ratio (2.5
to 1) due to the fact that they only receivedsupplemental plantings and may not be monitored directly for
detailed vegetation data. In addition, some wetlands also benefit from improved hydrology as a byproduct
of stream restoration and enhancement activities; however, hydrology isnot monitored, nor istheir success
dependenton it. Finally, all wetlands within the Project areprotected from future land useconversion by
an establishedpermanent conservation easement.

1.6Construction and As-Built Conditions
Streamconstruction and planting was completed in April2021.The Puncheon ForkSitewas built to design
plans and guidelineswith no major changes.The record drawingsareincluded inAppendix E.
Minor monitoring device location changes were made during as-built installation; however, the quantities
remained as proposed in the Final Mitigation Plan.Planting plan changesare outlined in Appendix C.Of
the 15species proposed, fivewere planted on April 15, 2021, and two were planted on May 3, 2021.
Additionally, a small percentage of green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica) was planted. The eight species that
were unavailable at the time of initial planting were planted in March 2022.
1.7MY2Monitoring Performance(MY2)
The Puncheon Forkbaseline monitoring activities were performed onJuly 19, 2022, andOctober 19, 2022.
All MY2monitoring datais present below and in the appendices. TheProjectis on track to meeting
vegetation,stream, and wetlandinterim success criteria.
Vegetation
Monitoring of fourfixedvegetation plots and tworandom vegetation plotswas completedonOctober 19,
2022.Vegetationdataare in Appendix C,associated photos are inAppendix B,and plot locations are in
Appendix B.MY2monitoring data indicates that three out of fourfixed plots andboth random plotsare
exceeding theinterim success criteria of 320 planted stems per acre.Fixed vegetation plot fourdid not meet
interim success criteria with 283 planted stems per acre.Planted stem densities ranged from 283to 567
planted stems per acre with amean of 391planted stems per acre across allplots. A total of 8species were
documented within the plots.Volunteer species were noted in one of the fourplots andare expected to
become more establishedin upcoming years.The averagestemheight in the plots was 2.1feet.Visual
assessment of vegetation outside of the monitoring plots indicates that the herbaceous vegetation is
becoming well established throughout the project.
In August 2022, additional easement signage was installed, minor invasive treatments to multiflora rose
were completed, and trash debris were removed from the easement.A few small, isolated pockets of
multiflora rose were noted during vegetation monitoring in the Fall. These areas will continue to be treated.
RES planted3,000 additional bareroot trees across the sitein March 2022. The goal of the planting wasto
include the species that were unavailable during initial planting as well as to plant the forested areas that
were not planted during initial planting. Species planted included hazelalder(Alnus serrulate), sugarberry
(Celtis laevigata), yellowpoplar(Liriodendron tulipifera), black cherry(Prunus serotina), sugar maple
(Acer saccharum), American basswood(Tilia americana), silky dogwood(Cornus amomum), witch hazel
(Hamamelis virginiana), American beech(Fagus grandifolia), and black willow(Salix nigra).
Stream Geomorphology
A total of 12cross sections were collected for MY2onJuly 19, 2022.Summary tables and cross section
plots are in Appendix D.The cross section profiles show some changes between As-Built and MY2
conditions, but this is to be expected within the first few years of stream monitoring as the stream adjusts.
Conditions between MY1 and MY2 are more similar showing the channel is stabilizing.The reaches were
designed asagravel bed channelsand remain classified asagravel bed channelspost-construction.
Puncheon Fork7Year 2Monitoring Report
Mitigation SiteNovember2022

Visual assessment of the stream channel was performed to document signs of instability, such as eroding
banks, structural instability, or excessive sedimentation. The channel is transporting sediment as designed
and will continue to be monitored for aggradation and degradation.
Twolog sills and abank on JB5-Cwererepaired in May 2022.The location of the repairs isonFigure 2
and photos are in Appendix B.Additionally, the IRT expressed concerns with the laminar flow in the
culverton JB4. RES isplanningto fix the culvert with Flexi Bafflesduring the growing season,low flow
conditions of 2023.
Stream Hydrology
Threestage recordersweredownloaded onJuly 19,2022,todocument bankfull events. The stage recorders
are located on JB2-A, JB4-B, and JB6-A. The stage recorder on JB6-A recorded the only two bankfull
events in MY2, with the highest event being 0.1ft above bankfull.Reaches JB2 and JB4 have valley slopes
between 6-10%. Overbank events at these slopes are far more likely to cause significant erosion due to
increased flow velocities. With this is mind, these reaches are not expected to reach bankfull stage as often
as the flatter reaches downstream. This is particularly true in the early stages of the project where channel
roughness is lower and floodplain vegetation/stability has not fully developed. Thegauge locationscan be
found on Figure 2and data isin Appendix E.
2.0 Methods
Stream cross section monitoring was conducted using a Topcon GTS-312 Total Station. Three-dimensional
coordinates associated with cross-section data were collected in the field (NAD83 State Plane feet FIPS
3200). Morphological data were collected at 12cross-sections. Survey data were imported into CAD,
ArcGIS®, and Microsoft Excel® for data processing and analysis. The stage recorders include an automatic
pressure transducer placed in PVC casing in a pool. The elevation of the bed and top of bank at each stage
recorder are used to detect bankfull events.
Vegetation success is being monitored at fourfixedmonitoring plots and tworandom monitoring plots.
Vegetation plot monitoring follows the CVS-EEP Level 2 Protocol for Recording Vegetation, version 4.2
(Lee et al. 2008) and includes analysis of species composition and density of planted species. Data are
processed using the CVS data entry tool. In the field, the four corners of each plot were permanently
marked with PVC at the origin and metal conduit at the other corners. Photos of each plot are to be taken
from the origin each monitoring year. The random plot isto be collected in locations where there are no
permanent vegetation plots. Random plot will most likely be collected in the form of 100 square meter
belt transects with variable dimensions. Tree species and height will be recorded for each planted stem
and the transects will be mapped and new locations will be monitored in subsequent years.
