Monitoring Year 2 Report
1.0 Introduction
1.1 Project Description
The Anderson Farm II Mitigation Bank Parcel (Parcel) is part of Wildlands Holdings III, LLC (Sponsor),
Anderson Farm II Nutrient Offset and Buffer Mitigation Bank (Bank). The Bank Parcel Development
Package (BPDP) was approved in January 2022. The project encompasses three unnamed tributaries
(UT1, UT2, and UT3) and one ditch (Ditch A), located in Wayne County, NC (Figure 1). The purpose of the
Parcel is to provide riparian buffer mitigation credits and nutrient offset credits to compensate for
unavoidable impacts according to the Consolidated Buffer Mitigation Rule 15A NCAC 02B .0295
(effective November 1, 2015) and development requiring nutrient offset payments according to 15A
NCAC 02B .0703 within the 03020201 HUC outside the Falls Lake Watershed. The Bank service area is
depicted in Figure 2.
This Parcel was restored to provide nutrient offset and buffer mitigation credits through the creation of
a Nutrient Offset and Buffer Mitigation Bank. Prior to construction, the Parcel was an agricultural field
used for row crop production. The Parcel was restored to provide ecological and water quality
enhancements to the Neuse River Basin by creating a functional riparian corridor. Approximately 15.94
acres have been protected with a permanent conservation easement along the project features.
1.2 Bank Sponsor
The Anderson Farm II Branch Mitigation Parcel is a part of the Bank. The Mitigation Banking Instrument
(MBI) for the Bank was signed on January 4, 2022.

1.4 Project Location
The Parcel is in Wayne County, approximately six miles northwest of the Town of Mount Olive (Figure 1).
To reach the Parcel from the City of Raleigh, travel east on I‐40 for approximately 42 miles. Take exit 341
for NC‐50/NC‐55 towards US13/Newton Grove. Turn left onto NC‐50 S/NC‐55 E. At the traffic circle, take
the 3rd exit onto NC‐50 S/NC‐55/Mt Olive Dr. In approximately 9 miles, turn left onto Odom Mill Rd, then

turn right onto Crows Foot Rd in one mile. In 2.7 miles, turn right onto Dudley Rd/O’Berry Rd. After 3.5
miles, turn right onto Bowden Rd. The Parcel will be located on the left (35.251662 N, ‐78.103729 W).
1.5 Project Design
The Parcel will generate 0.92 acres of Neuse riparian buffer credits. Additionally, the Parcel will generate
13.43 acres of nutrient offset credits, which creates 30,534.326 pounds of nitrogen offset credits. Parcel
credit generation is shown in Figure 3. The revegetation plan for the Parcel included planting of bare
root trees and controlling invasive species growth. Bare root trees selected for the Parcel were native
bottomland hardwood species typical for coastal communities as defined by Schafale (2012). The
species composition planted was selected based on the desired community type, occurrence of species
in riparian areas adjacent to the Parcel, and best professional judgement. Tree species selected for
planting on the Parcel as well as size specifications, planting density, and planting composition are
detailed in Table 2.
Table 2. Tree Species Selected for Buffer Restoration
Natural recruitment of desirable Character Tree species shall be counted towards the survival and
success rate of the Parcel. Character Trees are defined as planted or volunteer species identified from a
survey of local vegetation on less degraded sections of the specified stream and from reference
literature that details native species. A list of Character Tree species (other than the planted species) is
included in Table 3.

2.1 Success Criteria
Buffer vegetative success criteria are based upon the density and growth of species as defined in Tables
2 & 3. Vegetative success criteria are based upon guidelines set forth in the Consolidated Buffer
Mitigation Rule 15A NCAC 02B .0295 (effective November 1, 2015). This is defined as the survival of at

least four native hardwood tree species, where no one species is greater than 50% of the established
planted stems, and an established density of at least 260 planted trees per acre at the end of the fifth
year of monitoring.
If vegetative success criteria are not achieved based on acreage density calculations from combined
monitoring plots over the entire restoration area, or if an inspection of a buffer restoration area
indicates that portions of the Parcel do not have sufficient stem density or are otherwise deficient,
supplemental planting shall be performed with tree species approved by the North Carolina Division of
Water Resources (NCDWR). Supplemental planting shall be performed as needed until vegetative
success criteria are met. No quantitative measurements of herb assemblages will be required to meet
the vegetative success criteria.
2.2 Description of Species and Monitoring Protocol
The quantity of monitoring plots was determined in accordance with the Carolina Vegetative Sampling
(CVS) Protocols (Level II) such that at least 2 percent of restoration areas is encompassed in monitoring
plots. A total of 12 plots (10 meters by 10 meters) were established within the credit generation area.
PVC pipe was used to mark the four corners of the plots. Monitoring plot locations are shown in Figure
4. GPS points were taken at each of the corners. A reference photo was taken from the southwest
corner of each plot (Appendix D). All planted stems within the plots were marked with flagging tape and
recorded. Total numbers of tree species planted within the monitoring plots as well as planting density
and plant composition are detailed in Table 4. Detailed results of the monitoring year 2 stem count are
summarized in Appendix C.

2.3 Results of Vegetation Monitoring
The twelve vegetation plots were sampled in September 2023 at the end of the second growing season.
A reference photo was taken from the southwest corner of each plot, which can be found in Appendix D
along with the stem count raw data. Total numbers of tree species identified within the monitoring plots
as well as density, and composition are summarized in Table 5. Vegetation result tables with planted
stem density and stem count by plot and species are summarized in Appendix C.
The 2023 vegetation monitoring resulted in an average planted stem density of 519 stems per acre with
individual plot densities ranging from 324 to 607 stems per acre. Diversity remained high through the
second growing season, with a range of 5 to 10 planted species across plots. Additionally, the vast
majority of stems scored high on vigor, implying a higher chance of survival in future years.

2.4 Parcel Adaptive Management
Adaptive measures will be developed, or appropriate remedial actions will be implemented in the event
the Parcel, or a specific component of the Parcel fails to achieve the success criteria outlined in the
BPDP. Parcel maintenance will be performed to correct any identified problems on the Parcel that have
a high likelihood of affecting project success. Such items include but are not limited to; excess tree
mortality caused by fire, flooding, drought, or insects. Any actions implemented will be designed to
achieve the success criteria and will include a work schedule and updated monitoring criteria.
2.5 Conclusions
Overall, vegetation is doing well across the Parcel, with each vegetation plot surpassing the final density
criterium of 260 stems per acre. The Parcel has an average planted stem density of 519 planted stems
per acre, with plots ranging from 324 to 607 stems per acre. Plots have remained diverse in species
composition, with a range of 5 to 10 planted species across plots. Sampled stems scored high in vigor
and changes in average stem height across plots have shown a positive trend, which is anticipated to
continue. Additionally, herbaceous vegetation is established across the Parcel along with several
pollinator species.
