AMP Summary:

The Wits End site is a NCDMS Full Delivery site located in Yadkin 05 in Union County. Upon the completion of grading in July 2022, Davey (Restoration Systems) began observing the anticipated
drying of unconsolidated sediments associated with the pond removal. On July 18, 2023, Davey, DMS and the IRT conducted a MY0 site visit to view the project and site conditions. This
AMP is intended to address the issues associated with the pond bed cracking and bare areas.
