This correspondence is in reference to the Neu-Con Umbrella Mitigation Bank, Selma
Mill Stream Mitigation Site located in eastern North Carolina. The site includes unnamed
tributaries that flow to the Neuse River in the Upper Neuse Cataloging Unit (03020201)
and is located north of the intersection of W. Chestnut Street and NC Highway 96, north
of Selma, in Johnston County, North Carolina. The purpose of this letter is to transmit
comments provided by the NC Interagency Review Team (NCIRT) during the review of
the monitoring report (see attached) and to confirm the Year 6 credit release for this
mitigation site.
Pursuant to the site’s Umbrella Mitigation Banking Instrument and the site-specific
Mitigation Plan, the following mitigation credits shall be available for sale provided the
annual monitoring report demonstrates interim performance standards are being met:
• 5% of the total enhancement and/or restoration Stream Mitigation Units
(SMUs) associated with year 6 annual monitoring (365.25 Warm Water SMUs)
Based on a review of the data provided for the stream restoration on the site, we
confirm that you have satisfied the above requirements, and 365.25 SMUs are now
