Subject: DIMS Comments on Perry Hill Mitigation Site Monitoring Year 2 Report
DMS Project Number 100093, DMS Contract 7744
Dear Mr. Dow,
We have reviewed the comments on the MY2 Report for the above referenced project dated December
22, 2022. Below are responses to each of the comments. For your convenience, the comments are
reprinted with responses in italics.
1. In the stream report Table 1: Project Quantities and Credits, please break down the lost stream
credits in the footnote or incorporate into the Table. 20 SMUs on Perry Branch Reach 4 and 5.17
SMUs on Perry Branch Reach 2.
A footnote has been added to Stream report Table 1 to break down the credit reduction
by stream reach.
2. In the buffer report, please do the same on Table 1 as requested above for the stream report.
Show in the footnote the actual square footage and amount of buffer credit lost by reach due to
the water line.
The original square footage and buffer credits have been added back into Table 1 to
show credit reductions. A footnote has been added to break down the credit reduction by
mitigation activity to match the way credits are broken out in Table 1.
3. If UT1 does not meet minimum flow requirements in MY3, we recommend that Wildlands
determine the linear extent of the channel that should be considered at -risk and include in the
MY3 report.
Wildlands has taken note of this comment for MY3.
4. There is a typo in the flow plot summary table in appendix D digital submission, please fix this in
next year's submission; one gauge was omitted due to another being reported twice. This typo
was not present in the report version of the summary table.
The original flow gauge on UT1 is labeled "UT1 Reach 1 — In -Stream Flow Gauge". The
flow gauge that was installed upstream on UT1 months later to provide supplemental
information is labeled "UT1 Reach 1 — In -Stream Flow Gauge 8". The names are very

Monitoring Year 2 Annual Report - FINAL
Section 1: PROJECT OVERVIEW
The Perry Hill Mitigation Site (Site) is located in Orange County, approximately three miles northwest of
Hillsborough, NC. The Site drains to Corporation Lake on the Eno River, which then flows to Falls Lake.
Corporation Lake is a water supply reservoir on the Eno River, which is classified as Water Supply Waters
(WS-II) and Nutrient Sensitive Waters (NSW). Falls Lake is classified as Water Supply Waters (WS-IV), as
well as Nutrient Sensitive Waters (NSW). Table 3 presents information related to the project attributes.
1.1 Project Quantities and Credits
The Site is located on one parcel and a conservation easement was recorded on 26.88 acres. Mitigation
work within the Site included restoration and enhancement I and II of perennial and intermittent stream
channels (Figures 1-1b).
In October 2021, waterlines were installed by the tenant farmer within the conservation easement,
parallel to the internal crossings. This work was done without consulting Wildlands. In an effort to find
the most reasonable and least disruptive solution, it was decided that the area containing the waterlines
would be marked as a maintenance area and credits reduced accordingly. This will allow for maintenance
in the future and avoid any further easement encroachments.
Approximately 20 feet (or a total of 0.19 acres) was added alongside both internal crossings as a
maintenance area. No credit is claimed in the maintenance area and project credits were reduced
accordingly. Table 1 below shows updated stream credits by reach and the total amount of stream
credits expected at closeout. Wildlands is working with a surveyor to mark the area.

1.3 Project Attributes
The project includes one parcel that has been managed as pasture and/or crop production, as indicated
by aerial photographs from 1938 to 2017. Portions of the upper watershed historically have been
forested. The stream crossings which existed prior to construction on Perry Branch were installed before
1938. Forested areas within the headwaters of UT2 and UT3 were cleared between 1938 and 1950. The
high -voltage utility transmission line that crosses the downstream extent of Perry Branch was
constructed between 1938 and 1950. Between 1950 and 1955, two ponds were constructed on the
project parcel, including one within the headwaters of Perry Branch Reach 1 and the other an offline
pond adjacent to Perry Branch Reach 4 within the lower portion of the watershed. Table 3 below and
Table 8 in Appendix C present additional information on pre -restoration conditions. Project Activity and
Reporting History, as well as the Project Contact Table are included in Appendix E.

Section 2: Monitoring Year 2 Data Assessment
Annual monitoring and site visits were conducted during MY2 to assess the condition of the project. The
vegetation and stream success criteria for the Site follow the approved performance standards
presented in the Mitigation Plan (Wildlands Engineering, 2020). Performance criteria for vegetation,
stream, and hydrologic assessment are located above in Section 1.2 Table 3: Goals, Performance
Criteria, and Functional Improvements. Methodology for annual monitoring is described in the MYO As -
Built Baseline Report (Wildlands, 2021).
2.1 Vegetative Assessment
The MY2 vegetative survey was completed in September 2022. Vegetation monitoring resulted in an
average stem density of 479 planted stems per acre across all vegetation plots, which is well above the
interim success criteria of 320 stems per acre required at MY3. All fourteen vegetation plots individually
met the interim success criteria and stem densities for each plot range from 324 to 729 planted stems
per acre. Herbaceous vegetation is growing well and desirable volunteer tree species such as common
hackberry (Celtis occidentalis) and green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica) are establishing themselves. Refer
to Appendix A for Vegetation Plot Photographs and the Vegetation Condition Assessment Table and
Appendix B for Vegetation Plot Data and Vegetation Performance Standards Summary Table.
2.2 Vegetation Areas of Concern
As was discussed above, an additional 20 feet (a total of 0.19 acres) was added alongside both internal
crossings as a maintenance area due to the installation of waterlines in October 2021. The affected area
was seeded, and herbaceous vegetation has grown over the disturbance. The soil is stabilized, and
Wildlands does not anticipate any future problems in these areas. Recent photographs showing
vegetation cover are included in Vegetation Areas of Concern Updated Photographs in Appendix A.
While planted trees are growing well, pasture grasses are still thick. To ensure planted trees remain
competitive, herbicide ring sprays were applied around the base of trees where necessary in April 2022.
Additionally, follow up treatments were done on the intermittent Tree -of Heaven (Ailanthus altissima)
stems via cut stump application of triclopyr in August 2022. Occasional resprouts of Chinese privet
(Ligustrum sinense) and Japanese honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica) were also treated in March 2022 in
the wooded areas along UT2, UT3, and Perry Branch.
While waiting for the live stakes to grow and shade the stream channels, in -stream vegetation was
treated with a foliar spray of glyphosate in August 2022 on UT1, UT2 and sections of Perry Branch.
2.3 Stream Assessment
Morphological surveys for MY2 were conducted in April 2022. All streams within the Site are stable and
functioning as designed. Cross -sections show minimal change in max depth and bankfull cross -sectional
area. Bank height ratios are less than 1.2 and entrenchment ratios are over 2.2. Cross -sections show
slight deviations from as -built due to sediment deposition and establishment of vegetation. Some
sediment deposition in pools is natural and expected. Pebble count data is no longer required per the
September 29, 2021 Technical Work Group Meeting and is not included in this report. The IRT reserves
the right to request pebble count data/particle distributions if deemed necessary during the monitoring
period. Refer to Appendix A for the Visual Stream Morphology Stability Assessment Table, Current
Condition Plan View maps, Stream Photographs, and Culvert Crossing Photographs. Refer to Appendix C
for the morphological data and cross-section plots.
Perry Hill Mitigation Site
Monitoring Year 2 Annual Report - FINAL 2-1
2.4 Stream Areas of Concern
Wildlands continued to observe the lack of flow in the short stretch of UT1 Reach 1 through the winter
and spring of 2022. When gauge data and observations did not show an increase in flow throughout the
wettest part of the year (see Section 2.5 Hydrology Assessment Section below), it was decided that
repairs were necessary. In September 2022, a rock sill was repaired by reinstalling filter fabric and
backfill material on the upstream face. The original fabric and backfill material are believed to have
failed to seal this structure, resulting in stream flow going subsurface. The repair was completed to
return the structure to the original design condition. This does not leave much to see on the surface,
however pictures with a red arrow pointing to the area of disturbance in the channel are included in
Appendix A — Stream Area of Concern Repair Photographs. Approximately five linear feet of channel
were impacted (see Figure 1b for location). Wildlands will continue to monitor flow in MY3.
2.5 Hydrology Assessment
By the end of MY7, four bankfull events must have occurred in separate years within the restoration and
enhancement I reaches. Bankfull events were recorded on Perry Branch and UT2 on May 241h, and UT1
on May 23rd, 2022. Bankfull was recorded on Perry Branch on a gauge installed in January 2022 (Perry
Branch Reach 4 crest gauge B in Figure 1b) to gather more information on the stream. All streams on the
Site recorded a bankfull event during MY2.
In addition, the presence of baseflow must be documented on restored or enhanced intermittent
reaches (UT1 Reach 1 and UT2 Reach 2) for a minimum of 30 consecutive days during a normal
precipitation year. UT2 Reach 2 exceeded baseflow criterion with 164 days of consecutive baseflow and
183 total days of flow. UT1 Reach 1 did not meet baseflow criteria this year. As in MY1, the original UT1
Reach 1 flow gauge recorded one day of flow. As mentioned in the previous section, repairs were
completed on this small section of UT1 in response to continued low flow through the winter months.
This area will continue to be monitored for the presence of baseflow in MY3.
UT1 Reach 1 flow gauge B (Figure 1b) was installed upstream of the original flow gauge (in cross-section
8 in Figure 1b) in December 2021 to learn the extent of the low flow stretch on UT1 Reach 1. Twenty
consecutive days and 92 total days of flow were recorded in MY2. While this is below the 30 consecutive
day minimum, all gauges are taking a measurement every 30 minutes. If one reading during a 24-hour
period falls below thalweg, the entire day does not count toward the consecutive days of flow. The UT1
Reach 1 flow gauge B flow events plot shows that most of the readings in January and half of February
are above the thalweg (see the Recorded In -stream Flow Events Plots in Appendix D). Refer to Appendix
D for Hydrology Summary Data.
According to the National Integrated Drought Information System, Orange County was abnormally dry
November 2021 through January 2022, a significant portion of the county was abnormally dry through
March 2022, and again mid -June through mid -August, and all of September 2022 (NOAA, 2022). This
likely had some effect on low baseflow of intermittent streams.
2.6 Adaptive Management Plan
Wildlands plans to re -apply herbicide in rings around planted trees in areas of thick herbaceous
competition and treat aggressive blackberry growth as needed in spring of 2023. Additionally, native
permanent seed will be spread as a cover crop in areas where agricultural weeds are still dominant.
Wildlands will continue to monitor for resprouts of invasive species, and additional treatments will be
applied as necessary.
Wildlands will continue to monitor flow on UT1 Reach 1 through flow gauges and visual observation.
Data through MY3 will inform additional management actions if deemed necessary.

Monitoring Year 2 Annual Report - FINAL 2-2
2.7 Monitoring Year 2 Summary
Vegetation across the Site is exceeding performance standards and is on track to achieve the MY3
interim requirement of 320 planted stems per acre. Monitoring Year 2 data shows an average density of
479 planted stems per acre across vegetation plots. Resprouts of sporadic invasive vegetation were
treated in MY2 and follow up treatments will be scheduled as necessary. Additional ring sprays will be
applied around the base of trees in areas of high competition with herbaceous vegetation in spring
2023. Wildlands is working with a surveyor to mark the maintenance area. Project streams are stable
and functioning. Cross -sections show limited deviations from as -built due to sediment deposition and
vegetation establishment. Bankfull events were documented on UT1, UT2, and Perry Branch. UT2
achieved more than 30 consecutive days of baseflow, while UT1 did not. A short section of the UT1
Reach 1 channel was resealed in September 2022 to address the low flow. Wildlands will continue to
observe this stretch of channel.
Summary information and data related to the performance of various project and monitoring elements
can be found in the tables and figures in the report appendices. All raw data supporting the tables and
figures in the appendices are available from DIMS upon request.
