The North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program (NCEEP) has completed restoration of 5178 linear
feet of stream at the McIntyre Creek Restoration Site (hereafter referred to as the "Site ") to assist in fulfilling
stream and wetland mitigation goals in the area. This report (compiled based on EEP's Procedural
Guidance and Content Requirements for EEP Monitoring Reports Version 1.4 dated 11/7/11) summarizes
data for year 5 (2014) monitoring.
The goals and objectives of this project focus on improving local water quality, habitat, and stream stability.
These goals were accomplished by the following.
1. Restoring stable channel morphology capable of moving flows and sediments provided by the
watershed.
2. Improving water quality by reducing soil and riparian vegetation loss resulting from lateral erosion
and bed degradation.
3. Improving aquatic habitat with bed variability and the use of in- stream structures.
4. Stabilizing tributaries draining into McIntyre Creek.
5. Providing educational opportunities through Mecklenburg County.
6. Improving the natural aesthetics of Hornets Nest Park.
7. Enhancing vegetation to provide habitat /food sources, shade the stream, filter overland runoff, and
remove soil particles and other nutrients from stormwater.
8. Protecting a Site identified in a watershed listed as impaired for elevated levels of copper and
turbidity (NCDWQ 2010).
The Site is located in Hornets Nest Park on the northern side of the City of Charlotte in Mecklenburg
County. The Site is located in United States Geological Survey (USGS) Hydrologic Unit 03050101170020
(North Carolina Division of Water Quality [NCDWQ] Subbasin 03- 08 -34) of the Catawba River Basin and
will service USGS 8 -digit Cataloging Unit (CU) 03050101. The Site is located in NCEEP Targeted Local
Watershed within the Long Creek watershed targeted for restoration. Waters in the Site drain
approximately 2.5 miles into Long Creek (NCDWQ No. 11- 120- [2.5]), which is listed as impaired for
elevated levels of copper and turbidity negatively affecting aquatic life (NCDWQ 2010).
Prior to construction, the Site contained a degraded stream channel with a disturbed riparian buffer located
within Hornets Nest Park. Site streams were characterized by eroding banks, channel widening, high
sediment inputs from construction occurring in the upstream watershed and onsite bank erosion, and
channel incision as indicated by bank - height- ratios ranging from 1.4 to 1.9. Surrounding land uses include
commercial and residential areas with narrow riparian corridors adjacent to streams. At least 50 percent of
the contributing watershed had been cleared and developed.
Project construction was completed between March 2007 -May 2008 and remediation construction to repair
structures, stabilize banks, provide grade control, and dissipate stormwater energy was completed between
August 2009 - January 2010. The project restored 5178 linear feet of stream using Priority I restoration by
constructing a new meandering channel within the McIntyre Creek floodplain, incorporating in- stream
structures, installing grade control structures at the confluence with two tributaries, and planting native
forest species. Site activities provide 5129 Stream Mitigation Units (49 linear feet of the restored channel
is located within a utility easement and therefore was not included in the available mitigation credit). The
Site is protected by a permanent conservation easement held by the State of North Carolina.

Success criteria for stream restoration will be assessed using measurements of stream dimension, pattern,
and profile; site photographs; visual assessments; and vegetation sampling. Cross - section measurements
should show little or no change from the as -built cross - sections. If changes occur, evaluations will be
completed to determine whether changes are minor adjustments trending towards a more stable channel or
if changes indicate movement towards an unstable condition. Annual measurements should indicate stable
bed form features with little change from the as -built survey. Pools are expected to maintain depth with
lower water surface slope and riffles are expected to remain shallower with steeper water surface slopes.
Substrate measurements should indicate maintenance of distributions from the design phase and baseline
measurements. In addition, there should be an absence of any significant aggradation or degradation of the
stream channel.
There are areas of bank erosion located throughout the site, with those at the bottom of the project
(Monitoring reach 1) being the most concerning in that they represent active mass wasting. As a result,
EEP is engaging in a repair of these areas in monitoring reach 1 early in 2015. The areas in reach 2 and 3
are less concerning in that they are dominated by surficial scour as opposed to mass wasting. Additionally,
these features developed earlier in the project, but have not advanced in recent years. The bank erosion
percentages within these reaches have either remained the same or improved slightly compared to prior
years, but will continue to be monitored. Erosion was also observed in pool cross sections 1 and 4 earlier
in the projects history, but these cross section have not demonstrated any appreciable change even when
exposed to multiple storm flows. The watershed is extremely flashy due to the extensive amount of
impervious surface in the contributing watershed and floods quickly even during modest rain events.
Therefore, as per EEP, these areas will continue to be monitored, but given the lack of change within the
last 3 years, the repair will focus on the bottom reach (Monitoring reach 1) thereby avoiding unnecessary
disturbance of sections that appear to have equilibrated.
Success criteria for stream restoration will include documentation of two bankfull channel events during
the monitoring period. In the event that less than two bankfull events occur during the first five years,
monitoring will continue until the second event is documented. In addition, bankfull events must occur
during separate monitoring years. A crest gauge is located within the Site to assist with documentation of
bankfull events (Figures 2 -2A, Appendix B). Two bankfull events were documented during the year 5
(2014) monitoring season for a total of five documented bankfull events within the five -year monitoring
period. Additionally, precipitation data indicates that one geomorphologically relevant flow event occurred
onsite during the year five (2014) monitoring season for a total of at least nine such flows occurring over
the five year monitoring period.
Vegetation success criteria dictate that an average density of 320 stems per acre must be surviving in the
first three monitoring years. Subsequently, 290 stems per acre must be surviving in year 4 and 260 stems
per acre in year 5. Stem counts will be based on an average of the evaluated vegetation plots. Based on
the number of stems counted, average densities were measured at 477 planted stems per acre (excluding
livestakes) surviving in year 5 (2014). The dominant species identified at the Site were planted stems of
river birch (Betula nigra), green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica), cherrybark oak (Quercus pagoda), and silky
dogwood (Cornus amomum). The vegetation plots also included between 6 and 12 native woody species
with 25 observed in the plot data site wide. Nine of the ten individual plots met success criteria based on
planted stems alone. Plot 4 was below success criteria based on planted stems alone; however, when
including naturally recruited stems of appropriate species such as green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica) and
box elder (Ater negundo) plot 4 is well -above 260 stems per acre. Planted stems and natural recruits are
growing well throughout the Site; in general vegetation is vigorous.
Vegetation areas of concern within the Site include several small patches of multiflora rose (Rosa
multiflora), Chinese privet (Ligustrum sinense), and Japanese honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica).

Additionally, several large patches of Kudzu (Pueraria lobata) were observed within the Site (depicted on
Figures 2A -2B, Appendix B). A treatment of all invasive species occurred in late October 2013 and again
in early 2014; these treatments initially appeared to be successful, however, several areas of kudzu have
spread during the 2014 growing season resulting in some tree mortality. EEP will continue to treat invasive
species within the Site as needed.
Two groundwater gauges (Gauges 2 and 3) were installed within the Site within wetland areas created as
the result of stream restoration activities. An additional gauge (Gauge 1) was placed just outside of
delineated wetland areas created as the result of stream restoration activities. Success criteria for wetland
groundwater hydrology at the Site requires inundation or saturation within 12 inches of the ground surface
for a consecutive period of 10 percent of the growing season or greater than 23 consecutive days (the
growing season in Mecklenburg County begins March 22 and ends November 11 [233 days]). Gauges 2
and 3 exceeded success criteria for year 5 (2014) and Gauge 1 was just short of success being inundated for
16 days or 6.8 percent of the growing season.
Beaver activity observed on the Site during previous monitoring years had lessened due to proactive
measurements taken by EEP. Abundant signs of beaver activity were observed throughout the Site during
monitoring year 5 (2014); at the time of the site visit one beaver dam was located (Figure 2A, Appendix
B). Proactive measures to control beaver are recommended to continue as necessary.
Summary information and data related to the occurrence of items such as beaver or encroachment and
statistics related to performance of various project and monitoring elements can be found in tables and
figures within this report's appendices. Narrative background and supporting information formerly found
in these reports can be found in the mitigation and restoration plan documents available on EEPs website.
All raw data supporting the tables and figures in the appendices is available from EEP upon request.
2.0 METHODOLOGY
2.1 Vegetation Assessment
Ten vegetation plots were established and marked after construction with four foot metal U -bar post
demarking the corners with a ten foot, three - quarter inch PVC at the origin. The plots are 10 meters square
and are located randomly within the Site. These plots were surveyed using the CVS -EEP Protocol for
Recording Vegetation, Version 4.2 (Lee et al. 2008) ( http: / /cvs.bio.unc.edu /methods.hn); results are
included in Appendix C. The taxonomic standard for vegetation used for this document was Flora of the
Carolinas, Virginia, Georgia, and Surrounding Areas (Weakley 2007).
2.2 Stream Assessment
Annual stream monitoring will be conducted following procedures established in the USDA Forest Service
Manual, Stream Channel Reference Sites (Harrelson et. al 1994) and methodologies utilized in the Rosgen
stream assessment and classification system ( Rosgen 1994 and 1996). Four permanent cross - sections, two
riffle and two pool, were established and will be used to evaluate stream dimension; locations are depicted
on Figures 2 and 2A -2B (Appendix B). Cross - sections are permanently monumented with 4 -foot metal
garden posts at each end point. Cross - sections will be surveyed to provide a detailed measurement of the
stream and banks including points on the adjacent floodplain, top of bank, bankfull, breaks in slope, edge
of water, and thalweg. Data will be used to calculate width -depth ratios, entrenchment ratios, and bank
height ratios for each cross - section. In addition, photographs will be taken and pebble counts will be
conducted at each permanent cross - section location annually.
Three approximately 1000 - linear foot monitoring reaches were established and will be used to evaluate
stream pattern and longitudinal profile; locations are depicted on Figures 2 and 2A -2B (Appendix B).

Measurements of channel pattern included belt- width, meander length, and radius of curvature (only in year
one). Subsequently, data was used to calculated meander -width ratios. Longitudinal profile measurements
will include average water surface slopes and facet slopes and pool -to -pool spacing. Ten permanent photo
points were established throughout the restoration reach; locations are depicted on Figures 2 and 2A -213
(Appendix B) and plots are included in Appendix B. In addition, visual stream morphology stability
assessments will be completed in each of the three monitoring reaches annually to assess the channel bed,
banks, and in- stream structures.
2.3 Wetland Assessment
Three groundwater monitoring gauges were installed at the Site in February 2011 and have been maintained
and monitored throughout growing season. Two gauges (Gauges 2 and 3) are located within delineated
wetlands created by stream restoration activities and one gauge (Gauge 1) is located within a marginal area
not in the delineated wetlands to assist with making a determination in marginal areas. Graphs of
groundwater hydrology and precipitation are included in Appendix E.
