Part 1: Executive Summary /Project Abstract
1.1 Project Goals & Objectives
The 2009 Yadkin Pee -Dee River Basin Restoration Priorities document (NCEEP 2009) identified
stormwater runoff and other development impacts as likely contributors to turbidity and chlorophyll
violations within the Summit Seep Wetland Mitigation Site's Targeted Local Watershed (TLW) and 14-
Digit Cataloging Unit 03040103020010. The Summit Seep Wetland Mitigation Site (hereby referred to
as "Site ") was identified as a non - riparian wetland restoration opportunity to improve water quality,
enhance flood attenuation, and to restore wildlife habitat within the TLW.
The project goals address stressors identified in the TLW and include the following.
• Remove nonpoint sources of pollution associated with vegetation maintenance including:
a. the cessation of broadcasting fertilizer, pesticides, and other agricultural chemicals into and
adjacent to Site drainage ditches; and
b. providing a vegetated wetland to aid in the treatment of runoff.
• Restore wetland hydro - periods that satisfy wetland jurisdictional requirements and approximate
the Site's natural range and variation.
• Promote floodwater attenuation by filling ditches and enhancing groundwater storage capacity.
• Restore and reestablish natural community structure, habitat diversity, and functional continuity.
• Enhance and protect the Site's full potential of wetland functions and values in perpetuity.
The project goals will be addressed through the following project objectives:
• Providing 4.0 Non - riparian Wetland Mitigation Units (WW's), as calculated in accordance with
the requirements stipulated in RFP #16- 002835, by restoring 3.91 acres and enhancing 0.18 acres
of non - riparian wetland. This will be accomplished by filling ditches, removing spoil castings,
excluding livestock, redirecting hydrology from a spring across the Site, and planting with native
forest vegetation.
• Protecting the Site in perpetuity with a conservation easement.
1.2 Background Summary
Located in western Davidson County and within the 14 -Digit Cataloging Unit 03040103020010, the Site
is approximately five miles southwest of Lexington, North Carolina (Figure 1, Appendix A). Within the
Southern Outer Piedmont physiographic province of North Carolina, the regional physiography is
characterized by dissected irregular plains, some low rounded hills and ridges, and low to moderate
gradient streams with mostly cobble, gravel, and sandy substrates (Griffith et al. 2002). The wetland
restoration and enhancement area is located upslope along the western edge of an unnamed tributary's
floodplain. The project drains 35.6 acres and ultimately connects to North Potts Creek. The 6.4 acre Site
sits on both sides of the unnamed tributary, of which 4.1 acres have been restored. The North Carolina
Ecosystem Enhancement Program currently holds the conservation easement for the Site, the property is
owned by Hillcrest Acres, LLC.
1.3 Vegetation Assessment
After planting was completed, six sample vegetation plots (10 -meter by 10- meter) were installed and
measured within the Site as per guidelines established in CVS -EEP Protocol for Recording Vegetation,
Version 4.2 (Lee et al. 2008). Vegetation plots are permanently monumented with 5 -foot metal t -posts at
each corner and half inch PVC at the origin. In each sample plot, vegetation parameters to be monitored
include species composition and species density. Visual observations of the percent cover of shrub and
herbaceous species will also be documented by photograph. Vegetation plot information can be found in
Summit Seep Non - Riparian Wetland Mitigation Site Page 1
Year 4 (2014) Annual Monitoring Document

Appendix C. Year 4 (2014) stem count measurements indicate an average of 519 planted stems per acre
across the Site. In addition, each individual plot met success criteria.
1.3.1 Vegetation Success Criteria
Characteristic Tree Species include woody tree and shrub species planted at the Site, observed within a
reference forest, or outlined for the appropriate plant community in Schafale and Weakley (1990). An
average density of 320 stems per acre of Characteristic Tree Species must be surviving in the first three
monitoring years. Subsequently, 290 Characteristic Tree Species per acre must be surviving by the end of
year 4 and 260 Characteristic Tree Species per acre by the end of year 5. The Interagency Review Team
(IRT) may allow counting of acceptable volunteer species toward the 210 -tree per acre density upon
review and evaluation of the annual monitoring data.
No single volunteer species (most notably red maple, loblolly pine, and sweet gum) will comprise more
than 20 percent of the total composition at years 3, 4, or 5. If this occurs, remedial procedures /protocols
outlined in the contingency plan will be implemented. During years 3, 4, and 5, no single volunteer
species, comprising over 20 percent of the total composition, may be more than twice the height of the
planted trees. If this occurs, remedial procedures outlined in the contingency plan will be implemented.
If, within the first 3 years, any species exhibits greater than 50 percent mortality, the species will either be
replanted or an acceptable replacement species will be planted in its place as specified in the contingency
plan.
1.3.2 Vegetative Problem Areas
The year 1 (2011) Annual Monitoring Report indicated problems with Chinese privet (Ligustrum sinense)
and small carpgrass (Arthraxon hispidus) (not considered invasive). Invasive species treatments for
Chinese privet were completed in the spring of 2012 and will continue throughout the 5 year monitoring
period, as necessary. Treatment of Chinese privet was effective and no occurrences of Chinese privet
were noted during year 3 (2013) or year 4 (2014) monitoring.
Supplemental planting by Carolina Silvics occurred in the winter of 2012/2013 with bare -root trees
including 800 American elm (Ulmus americana), 500 American hornbeam (Carpinus caroliniana), and
800 river birch (Betula nigra). These trees remained vigorous during Year 4 (2014) monitoring.
During the spring of 2014, a mature sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciflua) fell in the southwest portion of
the easement, partially covering vegetation plot 5. Though several stems were killed, the tree does not
appear to be a threat to site success. Additionally, one area was observed to have poor growth during year
4 (2014) monitoring; much of the wetland enhancement area on the south edge of the Site is characterized
by reduced stem density and less vigorous trees than the remainder of the site. The lack of growth is
likely due to poor soils in the ditch -fill area. This area will continue to be watched closely during year 5
(2015) monitoring.
1.3.3 Vegetative Contingency Plan
If vegetation success criteria are not achieved based on average density calculations from combined plots
over the entire restoration area, supplemental planting may be performed with tree species approved by
regulatory agencies. Supplemental planting will be performed as needed until achievement of vegetation
success criteria.

Year 4 (2014) Annual Monitoring Document

1.4 Wetland Assessment
Initially four groundwater monitoring gauges were installed at the Site. After the completion of the
Baseline Monitoring Report, an additional monitoring gauge was installed on June 8, 2011 (Figure 2,
Appendix B).
Hydrological sampling was conducted throughout the growing season at intervals no greater than thirty
days, and was done so to satisfy the determination of jurisdictional hydrology success within the Site
(USEPA 1990). In addition, rainfall data will be used for comparison of groundwater conditions with
extended drought conditions. Graphs of groundwater hydrology and precipitation from an onsite rain
gauge, supplemented with data from a nearby weather station, are included in Appendix D.
1.4.1 Wetland Success Criteria
Target hydrological characteristics include saturation or inundation for 7.5 percent of the growing season,
which during average climatic conditions is from March 28— November 3 (220 days) (2002 NRCS WETS
Data). Restored/enhanced wetland areas are expected to support hydrophytic vegetation; if wetland
parameters are marginal as indicated by vegetation and /or hydrology monitoring, a jurisdictional
determination will be performed.
Based on the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Regional Supplement (USACE 2010),
the growing season begins when biological indicators of plant growth (bud burst, emergence of herbs
from the ground, or elongation of leaves, etc.) has occurred, and/or the soil temperature indicates
microbial activity (soil temperature of 50 -55 degrees at a depth of 12 inches from the soil surface). For
the purpose of this year 4 (2014) Annual Monitoring Report, the Natural Resource Conservation Service
(MRCS) growing season is being used. Future monitoring data collection (documentation of bud burst
and soil temperature) will be used to verify the initiation of the growing season when conditions allow.
Summary of Monitoring Period/Hydrology Success Criteria by Year
1.4.2 Wetland Contingency Plan
Hydrologic contingency may include floodplain surface modifications such as construction of ephemeral
pools, deep ripping of the soil profile, and installation of berms to retard surface water flows.
Recommendations for contingency to establish wetland hydrology may be implemented and monitored
until hydrology success criteria are achieved.

1.4.3 Wetland Problem Areas
There were no wetland problem areas observed during the 2014 monitoring season.
1.5 Supporting Data
Summary information/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 the tables and
figures in the report appendices. Narrative background and supporting information formerly found in
these reports can be found in the Baseline Monitoring Report (formerly Mitigation Plan) and in the
Mitigation Plan (formerly the Restoration Plan) documents available on NC Ecosystem Enhancement
Program ( NCEEP) website. All raw data supporting the tables and figures in the appendices is available
from NCEEP upon request.
Part 2: METHODS
2.1 Hydrology
Measurement of wetland hydrology was performed in accordance with traditional methods as per the
April 2003 USACE Wilmington District Stream Mitigation Guidelines. Five continuously recording,
surficial monitoring gauges were installed in accordance with specifications in Installing Monitoring
Wells /Piezometers in Wetlands (NCWRP 1993). The fifth monitoring gauge was installed on June 8,
2011 per NCEEP recommendations received on May 31, 2011. Monitoring gauges were set to a depth of
approximately 24 inches below the soil surface. Screened portions of each gauge were surrounded by
filter fabric, buried in screened well sand, and sealed with a bentonite cap to prevent siltation and surface
flow infiltration during floods. Data will be downloaded at least every 30 days during the growing
season. Additionally, an electronic rain water recording gauge was installed at the Site.
2.2 Vegetation
Monitoring of planted vegetation follows the CVSINCEEP Protocol for Recording Vegetation, Version
4.2 (Lee et al. 2008). Six 10 -meter by 10 -meter vegetation plots were installed within the 4.1 acres of
restored / enhanced wetlands (Figure 2, Appendix B). Vegetation received a visual evaluation at least
once every thirty days and CVS data collection took place on July, 2014.
Part 3: CONCLUSIONS
3.1 Hydrology
All groundwater gauges met success criteria based on the NRCS established growing season. However,
the true growing season should be based on biological activity in the soil, measured by soil temperature
(50 -55 degrees at a depth of 12 inches from the soil surface) and bud burst, which is consistently early to
late February in the Piedmont of North Carolina. If the growing season is presumed to extend from
February 14 to November 3 (263 days) then all five monitoring gauges far exceed success criteria, as
depicted in the following table. Table 9 (Appendix D) gives gauge result data based on the biological
growing season in applicable years in addition to the NRCS growing season.
Observations made during the 2012 growing season indicated that the original ditch plug and ditch
running along the southern portion of the Site had settled below anticipated levels. This settling allowed
water from the spring to follow historic ditch paths instead of being dispersed throughout the Site as
planned. This resulted in unsatisfactory inundation of the Site in the area of Gauge 5. Restoration
Systems implemented a remedial action plan on February 21St, 2013 to correct the elevation of the ditch
plug, ultimately restoring groundwater levels throughout the Site. The Remedial Action Plan and
correspondence with NCEEP can be found in Appendix E.

Summary of Groundwater Gauge Results
* This gauge was installed in early June 2011; therefore, data from the beginning of the growing season is not available. Based on the data form
other gauges, it is likely that this gauge would have met criteria.
3.2 Vegetation
Vegetation sampling across the Site was above the required average density with 519 planted stems per
acre surviving. In addition, each individual plot was above success criteria.
It should be noted that there were variations in species documented between Year 1 (2011) and Year 2
(2012). Multiple plants appear to have been misidentified during Year 1 (2011) monitoring. The species
were corrected during Year 2 (2012) monitoring, resulting in differences in species identified within each
vegetation monitoring plot.

Subject: Remedial Action Plan for hydrology at Summit Seep Non - Riparian Wetland Mitigation
Site [EEP Project ID #94646]
Dear Mr. Wiesner,
Section 3.1 of the Year 2 Monitoring Report for Summit Seep recognized observations made
during the 2012 growing season which indicated that ditch plugs placed during construction had
settled. Further observations made during the dormant season indicate that in addition to settling
ditch plugs, historic ditches filled during construction have settled as well. As a result,
Restoration Systems preformed multiple transect topographic surveys to determine the degree of
conveyance the historical ditches were having on the Site (Figure 1). Our findings showed that
overall settling of historical ditches is having a drastically larger influence on surface hydrology
being conveyed off Site than anticipated. The settling in combination with historic micro
topography due to agricultural activities is clearly conveying surface hydrology from the hillside
seeps and rain events through the Site and into the unnamed tributary. As a result the time frame
for surface water infiltration has been drastically decreased.
Year 2 rain and groundwater gauge data clearly show a direct correlation between rain events
and groundwater saturation with 12 inches of the surface. The Site has seen remarkable results
where gauges are successful and it is our conclusion that minimizing the conveyance of surface
hydrology and thus increasing the infiltration duration will undoubtedly result in hydrological
success. Thus, it is the goal of our remedial action plan to minimize surface water conveyance,
with minimal impact to the Site as possible. Figure 2 outlines the location were RS plains to
mimic historic floodplain topography by connecting crown elevations in three locations on Site.
Elevations will tie directly into existing crown elevations (Figure 3). This approach is the least
invasive option available, and will undoubtedly minimize the conveyance of surface hydrology.

No work will be done in monitoring areas, and RS has set aside 2,100 bare root saplings to
vegetate disturbed and bare areas throughout the Site, a seed mix will also be used to reestablish
herbaceous material as quickly as possible. All bare root saplings are of species originally
planted, and include a combination of Ulnuts Americana, Carpinus caroliniana, and Betula
nigra. Sediment and erosion control plans are needed on projects where land- disturbing activity
is greater than one (1) acre (Article 4. Sedimentation Pollution Control Act of 1973), anticipated
land impacts for the remedial action plan will be no greater than 1/z an acre (Figure 2), thus a
S &E control permit is not needed. The project's original construction contractor (Land
Mechanics) will be performing the repair which is anticipated to take one day.

Paul,
We finished the remedial work at Summit Seep (EEP Project ID 94646) yesterday with the planting of 2,000 bare root
saplings (a mixture of American elm, river birch and American hornbeam were used). I have attached a .pdf of photos
taken of the work. Please follow up if you have any specific questions, 919.604.9314)
All the best,
GZ:
