The data collected are to ensure that the wetland hydrology of the two NRWHF areas avoided by the permitted mine boundary is maintained after mine impacts are completed and/or the mined -through area has been reclaimed. 1.1 Area Description The Bonnerton Road NRWHF is located on a peninsula between Durham Creek to the west and Porter Creek to the east; both creeks flow north to the nearby Pamlico River (Figure 1). Surface water flow of the peninsula into the two creeks is separated by the divide known as the Suffolk Scarp, a geomorphic feature whose highest elevation in this vicinity is just to the west of the 135A NRWHF (Figure 1). Slope of the terrain on the most eastern side of the scarp towards Porter Creek is —0.2 percent, while the slope approaches 1 percent nearer to the eastern toe of the Suffolk Scarp. Similar to other outer coastal plain interfluves in North Carolina, where the underlying Castle Hayne limestone is close to the surface, the forested landscape of the peninsula is gently rolling with occasional small closed depressions and small non-hydric areas of higher elevation. 2.0 Methodology 2.1 Water Level To monitor the pre -mine hydrology of the monitored area, a total of 14 semi -continuous electronic Level TROLL 500 data -logger water level monitoring wells, manufactured by In -Situ, were installed in June and July 2015 at the locations shown in Figure 3 (BHW1-BHW14). In addition to the 14 wells installed in 2015, there are six additional wells used to monitor the wetland hydrology adjacent to upper Porter Creek for a separate project (locations shown on Figure 3). Two other types of monitoring wells have been used at four of these locations (PCW1, PCW3, PCW4, and PCW6) since 2006 [Remote Data Systems (RDS) WL20s and WL80s and RDS Ecotone 20s and Ecotone 80s] but Level TROLL 500s have been in place at all six locations since 2011 (wells at PCW2 and PCWS were added). Each of the 14 Level TROLLS is housed inside a 2-inch diameter PVC well screen (0.010-inch slots) installed to a depth of approximately 32 inches and backfilled with filter sand. The recorder is suspended on a 43.75-inch cable in the well screen to record water levels within at least -18.25 inches below the ground surface and up to +20 inches above the surface. Among the 14 wells the range of water levels which can be recorded below the surface ranges from -18.25 to -31.75 inches and the range of surface water which can be recorded ranges from +18 to +26 inches. The units record the water level every 1.5 hours (16 times per day). The six upper Porter Creek wells are housed inside a 3-inch diameter PVC well screen with 0.010- inch slots, but the Level TROLL cable is 60.25 inches long and among these wells, the range for below ground water level is -29.75 to -33.25 inches, and the range of surface water is +32.75 to +36.5 inches. Bonnerton NRWHF Wetland Hydrology 1 PCS Phosphate Company, Inc. 2019 Update July 2020 (The longer cable is used for the upper Porter Creek wells as part of a different monitoring project methodology and protocol.) To prevent damage by bears, the above -ground portions of all well screens were surrounded by a fence enclosure made of metal T-posts and strands of barbed wire. All 20 monitoring wells were checked and downloaded once a month. Most of the 14 wells are located in portions of the hardwood flat at slightly higher elevations than the six Porter Creek wells; however, no elevations have been surveyed so perceived differences in elevation are not quantified. Wetland hydroperiods were calculated for each monitoring well during the growing season. A hydroperiod is defined as consecutive days during the growing season that the water table is within 12 inches of the surface or the surface is inundated, and is expressed as a percentage of the growing season. For this project, the growing season is defined by the Regional Supplement to the Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual: Atlantic and Gulf Coastal Plain Region (Version 2.0) (USACE ERDC 2010) to match the Natural Resources Conservation Services' (NRCS) WETS tables and is 282 days long in non -leap years (28 February-6 December). For the purposes of this report, a hydroperiod for 6 percent or more of the growing season is considered a wetland hydroperiod. 2.2 Rainfall and Drought Rainfall was collected and measured using a RDS tipping bucket style rain gauge until 2019 when it became obsolete; it was replaced with a Texas Electronic TR-525USW style bucket with similar function and accuracy (+/- 1% at 0-2 inches/hour). Rainfall lands in the funnel of the rain gauge and is directed down to the bottom of the funnel where it drips into two carefully calibrated "buckets" balanced on a pivot. Once the bucket has reached its calibrated amount, 0.010 inch of rain, it tips down registering the event as the opposite bucket rises to begin collecting the next calibrated amount of rain. Water is allowed to drain out of a hole on either side of the rain gauge underneath each bucket. The Porter Creek rain gauge was used for local rainfall data (Figure 3) except during a data gap or malfunction when the Aurora Station 6N data was used (located approximately 4.7 miles to the east). Since 2013, another rain gauge (located 3.3 miles to the northwest at DCUT19) may also serve during data gaps. Long-term rainfall collected at the NOAA station PCS Aurora 6N was used by the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) to provide what is known as the WETS Aurora Station 6N rainfall data. These data were downloaded by CZR Incorporated (CZR) and used to build annual rainfall figures to determine periods of normal rainfall. "Range of Normal" refers to the 30th and 70th percentile thresholds of the probability of onsite rainfall amounts outside of the normal range (based on historical averages from 1971-2000). In December of 2016, the long-term historical averages were updated by NRCS to include 1981-2010. Drought conditions are monitored nationally by several indexes. Periods of drought can affect the hydrology of a site and should be taken into consideration when wetland hydrology is interpreted. As suggested in the USACE 2010 Regional Supplement, the Palmer Drought Severity Index (PDSI) was used to determine drought periods for the area. The PDSI is useful because it "takes into account not only precipitation but also temperature, which affects evapotranspiration, and soil moisture conditions" (US Army Corps of Engineers 2010). The PDSI is calculated monthly and is based on major climatic divisions Bonnerton NRWHF Wetland Hydrology 2 PCS Phosphate Company, Inc. 2019 Update July 2020 within each state (US Army Corps of Engineers 2010). Although the index is not site -specific, for the purposes of this report it provided sufficient information to make general statements about drought conditions in the area. Drought conditions described by this index by month and year are for the NOAA Central Coastal Plain region of North Carolina. The US Drought Monitor website (http://droughtmonitor.unl.edu) provides a synthesis of multiple indices and impacts and reflects the consensus of federal and academic scientists on regional conditions on a weekly basis (updated each Thursday). The area used for regional drought conditions includes numerous watersheds of various sizes and may cover portions of more than one county. 2.3 PCS Deep Well Pump Operations and Water Levels in CZR Level TROLLS Water depth within creeks and wetlands should respond to changes in environmental conditions. For example, precipitation events should increase the amount of belowground and aboveground water. The operation of pumps within PCS deep wells located in the perimeter canal around the mine pit near impact creeks could potentially disrupt how the hydrology of surrounding wetlands responds to any change in environmental conditions. If the relationships between environmental variables and hydrology changes during or after the operation of pumps within deep wells, then some effect of Mod Alt L activities may be inferred. Water level data collected by CZR from Level TROLLS in the Bonnerton non-riverine wet hardwood forest help investigate these potential changes in relationships. Level TROLLS measure water levels across a range of approximately 5 feet with most data collected from —24 to +24 inches at each location (configuration/installation varies slightly by site conditions). Information on the operation of pumps within each 20-inch diameter deep well was provided by PCS. Each deep well is drilled approximately 250-feet deep through several confining layers in order to depressurize the Castle Hayne Aquifer under the active mine. Each pump can produce 3,000 gallons/minute. Daily hydrology data from each Level TROLL was split into three time periods: pre-, during-, and post - pump operation. For each of these time periods, a dynamic multiple linear regression model was constructed with hydrology (i.e., water depth) as the response variable and Tar River discharge, precipitation, wind speed, and wind direction as predictor variables. Tar River discharge was lagged by 1, 5, 10, 15, and 20 days and precipitation was lagged by 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 days. Wind direction was converted into a categorical variable to represent eight directions (north, northeast, east, etc.). Water depth was also lagged one day and included in all models as another predictor variable; however, this variable was only included to control for temporal autocorrelation and not for any explanatory purposes. A full model with all of the predictor variables was first constructed. Predictor variables were removed in a step -wise manner based on their significance value (i.e., P-value). However, a predictor was not removed if it was the only representative remaining of the four main predictor types (wind speed, wind direction, discharge, or precipitation). Thus, each final model included at least one predictor of wind speed, wind direction, discharge, and precipitation. Final predictor variables were compared to one another using the absolute values of the calculated t-value. Those variables with the highest t-values for Bonnerton NRWHF Wetland Hydrology 3 PCS Phosphate Company, Inc. 2019 Update July 2020 each final model are referred to as 'important' to distinguish from significant or non -significant variables that did not produce high t-values. Models were fit using the dynlm package in R (Zeileis 2016). 3.0 Results and Discussion 3.1 Soil Series and Soil Profiles The soil survey for Beaufort County NC (Kirby 1995) and web soil survey data show the area of the Bonnerton NRHWF as underlain mostly by Tomotley fine sandy loam and several other soil series which are all considered hydric; two of the soil series are considered non-hydric (Altavista fine sandy loam and Augusta fine sandy loam) (Figure 4). Since earlier well installation soil profiles were described by several biologists at different times, in 2016/2017, soil profiles at all 20 well locations were re -described using the NRCS hydric soil indicators (USDA2010) as directed bythe 2010 regional supplement (soil profiles included in Appendix A). 3.2 Rainfall and Drought in 2015 - 2019 Monthly rainfall recorded in 2015-2019 at the Porter Creek rain gauge and at the PCS Aurora 6N station is shown in Table 1. In 2019, monthly rainfall totals for January, February, April, June, July, and November through December were below the WETS 70th percentile (Figure 5); annual rainfall total at the Porter Creek rain gauge was 56.67 inches. Porter rain gauge monthly totals were highest for the year in August associated with heavy downpours and was considerably different from nearby rain gauges. PCS Aurora 6N rain gauge recorded its highest monthly total in September mostly due to Tropical Storm Dorian on the September 6th. The differences in rain gauge rainfall totals within close proximity is typical, especially during summer months, when localized strong storms are more common. Days of above normal rainfall (13 April through 9 May, 12 July through 20 July, 24 July through 11 August, and 28 August through 27 September) were excluded. In 2018, monthly rainfall totals for January, February, and March were below the WETS 70th percentile (Figure 6); the majority of the year was above the WETS normal range and annual rainfall total at the Porter Creek gauge was 67.61 inches. The wettest tropical cyclone on record in the Carolinas, Hurricane Florence (slow moving Category 1 storm), made landfall in Wrightsville Beach, NC on 14 September. Rainfall was generally 4 to 8 inches over Beaufort County with a storm total of 6.95 inches in Belhaven. The heaviest rainfall totals fell across the extreme southern part of the county which caused flash flooding in some locations. In 2017, monthly rainfall totals for January, February, October, and November were below the WETS 30th percentile (Figure 7); annual rainfall total at the Porter Creek gauge was 48.09 inches. April was the only month with total rainfall above the WETS normal range. A strong coastal low pressure system produced heavy rainfall and flash flooding from 23 April to 25 April. Based on the 30-day rolling total, rainfall from 24 April through 24 May was considered above normal. Bonnerton NRWHF Wetland Hydrology 4 PCS Phosphate Company, Inc. 2019 Update July 2020 In 2016, monthly rainfall was greater in February, June, July, September and October when compared to the WETS percentiles (Figure 8); annual total rainfall at the Porter Creek gauge was 55.93 inches. Rainfall for March and mid to late August were below normal with the remainder of the year within WETS normal range. Hurricane Matthew, a Category 1 storm, made landfall in Cape Romain National Wildlife Refuge, SC on 8 October 2016. Above average rainfall spikes began in the PCS area on 7 October, coincident with arrival of the outer rain bands of the hurricane in North Carolina. There were several periods of above normal rainfall that were excluded when hydroperiods were calculated for normal and below normal rainfall: 3 February through 5 March, 3 June through 5 July, 7-30 July, 11-30 September, and 7 October through 7 November. In 2015, monthly rainfall was greater in June, October, and late November through late December when compared to the WETS percentiles (Figure 9); annual total rainfall at the Porter Creek gauge was 58.96 inches. At the end of January and March, the 30-day rolling total was slightly above normal. Rainfall for the month of August was below normal and the rainfall for the remainder of the year fell within the WETS normal range. Periods of above normal rainfall included 3 June through 3 July, 2 October through 1 November, and 20 November through 20 December. For 2019, the US Drought Monitor (http://droughtmonitor.unl.edu) indicated nine weeks were considered abnormally dry (DO) the highest record since 2015; the remaining weeks had no drought status in the vicinity of the Bonnerton Road NRHWF "135A" and "58A" project areas (Table 2; four years prior to 2015 are also shown). In 2018, one week was considered abnormally dry (DO). In 2017, five weeks were considered abnormally dry (DO). During 2016, three weeks in April were assigned drought condition (DO —Abnormally Dry) or 6 percent of the entire year and 7 percent of the 41-week growing season (Table 3). In 2015, all 41 weeks of the growing season were considered normal with no drought status. 3.3 Wetland Hydrology by Year 2019 For 2019, all locations recorded wetland hydroperiods for 12.5 to 25.0 percent of the growing season when periods of above normal rainfall were excluded (Table 3a). During all rainfall conditions two wells had hydroperiods for >25.0-75.0 percent of the growing season while all the other wells remained in the >12.5-25.0 percent range (Table 3b). Under all rainfall conditions, four wells changed from the >25.0-75.0 percent hydrologic zone to the >12.5-25.0 percent from 2018 to 2019. 2018 All BHW and PCW wells well locations recorded wetland hydroperiods in 2018, even when periods of above normal were excluded (Tables 3a and 3b). Of the 14 BHW wells, eight wells had hydroperiods for >12.5-25.0 percent and six wells had hydroperiods for >25-75 percent of the growing season during all rainfall conditions. Similarly, all six PCW wells had hydroperiods for >12.5-25.0 percent. When hydroperiods that occurred during above normal rainfall were removed (Figure 5), six wells decreased from >25.0-75.0 percent to >12.5-25.0 percent of the growing season; all other wells maintained hydroperiods for >12.5-25.0 percent of the growing season. Bonnerton NRWHF Wetland Hydrology 5 PCS Phosphate Company, Inc. 2019 Update July 2020 2017 All well locations recorded wetland hydroperiods, even when periods of above normal were excluded (Tables B-1a and 1b, Appendix B). Of the 14 BHW wells, eight wells had hydroperiods for >12.5-25.0 percent and six wells had hydroperiods for >25-75 percent of the growing season during all rainfall conditions. Similarly, all six PCW wells had hydroperiods for >12.5-25.0 percent. When hydroperiods that occurred during above normal rainfall were removed, six wells decreased from >25.0-75.0 percent to >12.5-25.0 percent of the growing season; all other wells maintained hydroperiods for >12.5-25.0 percent of the growing season. 2016 The first full monitoring year for the 14 BHW wells was 2016. All well locations recorded wetland hydroperiods during the 2016 growing season (Tables B-1a and 1b, Appendix B). Of the 14 BHW wells, hydroperiods for eight wells were >12.5-25.0 percent and six wells were >25.0-75.0 percent of the growing season. Similarly, all six PCW wells had hydroperiods for >12.5-25.0 percent. When above normal rainfall was removed (Figure 6), only one well (PCW1) decreased from >12.5-25.0 percent to >_6.0-12.5 percent of the growing season during normal and below normal rainfall conditions. 2015 The 14 Bonnerton wells (BHW) were installed at the end of June 2015 and beginning of July 2015; the six upper Porter Creek (PC) wells collected data all year. All 14 BHW wells exhibited wetland hydroperiods using all rainfall data between June and December and the six Porter Creek wells exhibited wetland hydroperiods between February and December (Tables B-1a and 1b, Appendix B). Among the 14 wells in the higher elevations of the hardwood flat, BHW6 had the longest hydroperiod of 23.8 percent of the growing season while longest hydroperiods at the remaining wells were in the range of >_6.0 - 12.5 percent of the growing season (Table 4b). The six wells in upper Porter Creek are located in somewhat lower elevations than some of the other 14 wells and using all 2015 rainfall data, longest hydroperiods were >12.5-25.0 percent of the growing season with PCW6 exhibiting the longest hydroperiod of 24.5 percent (Appendix B). When dates with above normal rainfall during 2015 (Figure 7) were removed and only normal and below normal rainfall periods are used for evaluation, three BHW wells did not exhibit any wetland hydroperiods between June and December (one of these four exhibited water within 12 inches of the surface but for less than 6 percent of the growing season), nine had longest hydroperiods in the range of >_6.0- 12.5 percent, and longest hydroperiod at one well was >12.5-25.0 percent (Table 4a). All six PCW wells had wetland hydroperiods in the range of >12.5-25.0 percent of the growing season during normal and below normal rainfall. Bonnerton NRWHF Wetland Hydrology 6 PCS Phosphate Company, Inc. 2019 Update July 2020 3.4 Mine Perimeter Deep Well Pump Operation and Near Surface Hydrology At agency request, PCS provided CZR information about the locations and dates of operation (turn -ON and turn -OFF dates) of pumps in deep wells around the Bonnerton Mod Alt L mine perimeter for analysis of potential effects on adjacent wetland hydrology attributed to the pump activity. As of 31 December 2018, three deep well pumps in the vicinity of the Level TROLLS had been in operation since 2017, turned off in 2018, and suitable for the analysis. Graphs of the water levels of the 14 adjacent wetland wells in the Bonnerton NRWHF were examined in late 2017 through December 2019. The graphs do not reveal any apparent change in water level in the last weeks of 2017 through December 2019 other than response to rainfall events. These graphs are shown in Figure 11 of this report. Operation dates for the pumps in the PCS deep wells in the Bonnerton Tract as of the end of 2019 are shown in Table 5. This 2019 Bonnerton NRWHF update is the second report to incorporate an analysis on deep well pump operations and the wetland hydrology in the non-riverine wet hardwood forest. Three deep wells in close proximity to the eastern side of the Bonnerton non-riverine wet hardwood forest were used for the analysis (Figure 10). The pump in deep well 1108 was in operation from October 2017 to August 2018, pump in deep well 1109 was in operation from February 2017 to May 2018, and the pump in deep well 1110 was in operation from February 2017 to October 2018; the 2019 analysis focused on the on/off dates for pumps in these deep wells. The hydrology at four Level TROLLS was examined from July 2015 forward and those graphs are shown in Figure 11. The Pre time period was set from July 2015 when Level TROLLS were installed through January 2017, the During time period was set from February 2017 through October 2018, and the Post time period was set from November 2018 through December 2019. Detailed results of all final models are given in Table 6. For all four Level TROLLS rainfall was the important predictor variable for all three periods and had positive coefficients; the greatest influence was from rainfall the day of (0 days) for Pre/During/Post except for BHW1 which had a greater influence for a 1 day lag for During. However, the difference between the influences of rainfall was almost indiscernible between 0 and 1 day. Wind direction and wind speed were positively significant in BHW1, BHW3, and BHW4 for Post operation, as well as direction for each Level TROLL in at least one period. Northern winds increased depth at BHW2 and BHW4 during Pre, while southern winds increased depth at each Level TROLL for During and west winds decreased depth at all Level TROLLS During except BHW1. Southeastern winds increased depths at BHW1 and BHW4, while eastern winds increased depth at BHW2 during Post. Northwestern winds decreased depth at BHW1, BHW2, and BHW4 during Post. Discharge was only a significant predictor for BHW1 Pre and BHW2 Post, but was never an important variable for any Level TROLL. 4.0 Summary During 2015-2019 monitoring years, all 20 ground water monitoring wells exhibited wetland hydroperiods when all rainfall data are used to tabulate consecutive number of days of water levels above -12.0 inches Bonnerton NRWHF Wetland Hydrology 7 PCS Phosphate Company, Inc. 2019 Update July 2020 (relative to ground surface) as shown in Table 4a. The 14 Bonnerton wells were not installed until June of 2015; therefore, the earliest hydroperiods and perhaps the longest hydroperiods were not recorded for that year. In 2016-2019 all BHW and PCW wells exhibited wetland hydroperiods, even when above average rainfall was excluded (Table 4a). Over these four complete years, longest hydroperiods during WETS normal thresholds or below for 19 of the 20 wells were all >14.8 percent; the longest hydroperiod for the other well was 12.4 percent in 2016 and >_15.6 percent for the other three years (Table 4a). At first glance, 2018 and 2019 longest hydroperiods appear to have less variability and be shorter than previous years; however, 64 percent of the 2018 growing season had rainfall periods above the 70' percentile and were not included in the tally (Table 4a). The lower percentage hydroperiods for 2019 could be attributed to the drier year with 17 percent of the year in an abnormally dry drought category (Table 2). While the amount of annual rainfall, the months in which more or less rainfall occurs, and the percent of weeks with drought status varies from year to year, the wetland hydrology in the Bonnerton non-riverine wet hardwood forest over the five years appeared to be relatively consistent when all hydroperiods were shown (Table 4b); the wettest well (BHW6) remained the wettest and the driest well (PC1) remained the driest. Rainfall was the most important predictor for every Level TROLL and deep well pump operation time period in Bonnerton. It is clear that rainfall positively impacted the hydrology, after controlling for discharge and wind. Furthermore, this positive effect was present before, during, and even after deep well pump operation for all Bonnerton Level TROLLS. Thus, the operation of pumps in deep wells does not appear to have affected the positive influence of rainfall on hydrology in Bonnerton. All four wells analyzed showed a 0-1 day lag for rainfall as an important predictor variable during the Pre, During, and Post time periods. This result suggests that the amount of time for a rainfall event to strongly affect the water levels measured by the Level TROLLS has remained relatively the same since pumps first began operation. The pump operation in deep wells does not seem to have had any major impacts on the hydrologic response of Bonnerton shallow surface water to changes to the external environment (as measured by the Level TROLLS). Regression models constructed before, during, and after pump operation in the deep wells were similar (but not identical).
