In Year 5, all 20 vegetation plots met the 260 stems per acre success criteria. Bankfull events were recorded on all three stage recorders and the flow gauge documented 152 consecutive flow days in Year 5. One ground water well was added to provide supplementary hydrology data. Five of the 16 groundwater wells and neither of the two reference groundwater wells met the 12 percent hydroperiod success criteria. GW1, GW6, GWB, and GW13 remain "at -risk" due to consecutive years of hydroperiods less than five percent. While the majority of 2023 has experienced normal precipitation levels, the winter was abnormally dry. RES believes the dry winter prevented groundwater supplies from recharging fully during the year and is partially the reason for some continued low hydroperiods across the site. RES expects more normal hydroperiods to return in MY6. If this does not become the case, RES would like the IRT's input on exploring other options including modifying the instrument to remove the areas from wetland credit and exploring the potential of adding these areas to the Buffer Mitigation Plan with DWR approval. In the meantime, RES is not asking for the release of any wetland credits for MY5. Comments from Year 4 Credit Release: Casey Haywood, USACE: 1. Three encroachments were identified this year, two were addressed with the installation of new fencing and easement markers. Will new fencing and easement markers also be installed in the area where the horse pasture was constructed north of H131 once the landowner removes it from the easement? Yes. New easement markers will be installed where the horse pasture was once the landowner moves the fence line to outside the easement. 2. Thank you for providing more information and a map identifying wetlands at risk. Eleven out of 13 groundwater gauges did not meet success this year. Below average rainfall also contributed to decreased wetland hydrology this year. No wetland credits are being requested at this time. Hydrology has improved after a year of normal precipitation, although not as much as RES had anticipated. No wetland credits are being requested at this time. res.us 0 Please discuss the proposed easement adjustment shown on Figure 2 in the narrative. I know this has been discussed previously with IRT so it may be helpful to include any correspondence in an appendix. A short discussion on the matter has been included in section 1.7. Correspondence regarding the adjustment can be found in Appendix F. 4. Noted that a supplemental planting around veg plot 16 was performed in February 2022, and approximately 4.7 acres of the site was controlled/treated for privet, sweetgum, and loblolly pine. Please capture some of the treated areas with random plots in the MY5 report. Random veg plot 1 was taken in a treated area, and random veg plot 2 was taken within the area of supplemental planting. RES is requesting a 10% stream credit release (446.600 SMUs) for the submission of the Year 5 Monitoring Report. RES is not requesting the release of any wetland credits at this time.

The project streams and wetlands were significantly impacted by channelization and cattle access. The project involves the restoration and protection of streams in the Neuse River watershed and the restoration and enhancement of adjacent riparian wetlands. The purpose of this mitigation site is to restore and enhance a stream/wetland complex located within the Neuse River Basin. The Site was constructed in concurrence with the Hannah Bridge Riparian Buffer and Nutrient Offset Mitigation Bank. The Site lies within USGS Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC) 03020201 (USGS, 2012) and within the North Carolina Division of Water Resources (NCDWR) Neuse River Sub -basin 03-04-02 (NCDENR, 2005). The 2010 Neuse River Basin Plan (NRBP) identified the Hannah Creek watershed (HUC 03020201150020) as a Targeted Local Watershed (TLW), a watershed that exhibits both the need and opportunity for wetland, stream, and riparian buffer restoration. The total easement area is 46.2 acres. The wooded areas along the easement corridor designated for restoration activities were classified as mixed hardwoods. Invasive species were present throughout the wooded areas. Channels restored were degraded to a point where they no longer accessed their floodplain, lacked riparian buffers, allowed livestock access, and aquatic life was not supported. Additionally, the riparian buffer was in poor condition throughout most of the project area where it was devoid of trees or shrubs and pasture was present up to the edge of the pre -construction channel. The Site includes Priority I restoration, Enhancement Level I, Enhancement Level 11, and Preservation. Priority I restoration reaches incorporate the design of a single -thread meandering channel, with parameters based on data taken from the reference site described above, published empirical relationships, NC Coastal Plain Regional Curves, and hydrologic and hydraulic analyses. The Site includes wetland restoration, enhancement, and preservation. Wetland restoration occurs adjacent to Priority I stream restoration reaches. The restoration approach was to reconnect the floodplain wetlands to the stream, fill existing ditches, rough the floodplain surface, and plant native tree and shrub species commonly found in small stream swamp ecosystems. The wetland enhancement treatment primarily excludes livestock, improves hydrology via pond removal and ditch plugging and planting native tree and shrub species. The Site is to be monitored on a regular basis and a physical inspection of the Site will be conducted at a minimum of twice per year throughout the seven-year post -construction monitoring period, or until performance standards are met. These site inspections will identify site components and features that require routine maintenance. The measure of stream restoration success will be documented by bankfull flows and no change in stream channel classification. Sand bed channels are dynamic and minor adjustments to dimension and profile are expected. The measure of vegetative success for the Site will be the survival of at least 210 seven -year -old planted trees per acre with an average height of 10 feet at the end of year seven of the monitoring period. Upon approval for closeout by the Interagency Review Team (IRT), the Site will be transferred to the North Carolina Wildlife Habitat Foundation (NCWHF). The NCWHF will be responsible for periodic inspection of the Site to ensure that restrictions required in the Conservation Easement, or the deed restriction Hannah Bridge i Year 5 Monitoring Report Stream and Wetland Mitigation Site October 2023 document(s) are upheld. Endowment funds required to uphold easement and deed restrictions will be negotiated prior to site transfer to the responsible party. 1.2 Project Goals and Objectives The 2010 Neuse River Basin Restoration Priorities (RBRP) identified several restoration needs for the entire Neuse River Basin, as well as for HUC 03020201, specifically. The Hannah Creek watershed (HUC 03020201150020) was identified as a Targeted Local Watershed (TLW), a watershed that exhibits both the need and opportunity for wetland, stream, and riparian buffer restoration. The Hannah Creek watershed includes 34 square miles of watershed area, with forty-two percent of the 102 stream miles lacking wooded buffers. Fifty-four percent of the watershed is used for agricultural purposes and seven percent is currently developed. The Site was identified as a stream and buffer restoration opportunity to improve water quality, habitat, and hydrology within the Neuse River Basin. This project is intended to provide Stream Mitigation Units to be applied as compensatory mitigation for unavoidable authorized impacts to waters of the US under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. 1344) and support the overall goal of "no net loss" of aquatic resources in the United States. The Site is located within the downstream end of HUC 03020201 and includes streams that directly discharge into Hannah Creek. The overarching goal of this project is to address major watershed stressors identified in the 2010 Neuse RBRP for this TLW by promoting nutrient and sediment reduction in agricultural areas by restoring and preserving streams, wetlands, and riparian buffers and improve functional uplift to the ecosystem. The project design goals and objectives, including restoration of riparian buffers to filter runoff from agricultural operations and improve terrestrial habitat, and construction of in -stream structures to improve habitat diversity, will address the degraded water quality and nutrient input from farming. The project goals will be addressed through the following project objectives: • Increase forested riparian buffers to at least fifty feet on both sides of the channel along the project reach with an appropriate riparian plant community (a Coastal Plain Small Stream Swamp diverse mix of species). • Increase plant species diversity and eradicate invasive species within the project boundaries. • Improve flood bank connectivity by reducing bank height ratios and increase entrenchment ratios to reference reach levels. • Reduce sediment supply from eroding stream banks in order to restore channel stability by restoring the stream channel pattern, dimension, and profile in stream channels to reference reach conditions. • Reduce impact of livestock to the stream channels and runoff through the increase in the livestock exclusion. • Restore stable flow dynamics by improving stream velocity and shear stress to levels between the critical shear stress (shear stress required to initiate motion) and the allowable limits 1.3Project Success Criteria The Site follows the USACE 2003 Stream Mitigation Guidelines and the 'Wilmington District Stream and Wetland Compensatory Mitigation Update" dated October 24, 2016. Cross section and vegetation plot data will be collected in Years 0, 1, 2, 3, 5, and 7. Stream and wetland hydrology data and visual monitoring will be reported annually. Hannah Bridge 2 Year 5 Monitoring Report Stream and Wetland Mitigation Site October 2023 Stream Success Criteria Four bankfull flow events must be documented within the seven-year monitoring period. The bankfull events must occur in separate years. Otherwise, the stream monitoring will continue until four bankfull events have been documented in separate years. There should be little change in as -built cross -sections. If changes do take place, they should be evaluated to determine if they represent a movement toward a less stable condition (for example down -cutting or erosion) or are minor changes that represent an increase in stability (for example settling, vegetative changes, deposition along the banks, or decrease in width/depth ratio). Cross sections shall be classified using the Rosgen stream classification method, and all monitored cross -sections should fall within the quantitative parameters defined for channels of the design stream type. Bank height ratio shall not exceed 1.2, and the entrenchment ratio shall be no less than 2.2 within restored reaches. Channel stability should be demonstrated through a minimum of four bankfull events documented in the seven-year monitoring period. Digital images will be used to subjectively evaluate channel aggradation or degradation, bank erosion, success of riparian vegetation, and effectiveness of erosion control measures. Longitudinal images should not indicate the absence of developing bars within the channel or an excessive increase in channel depth. Lateral images should not indicate excessive erosion or continuing degradation of the banks over time. A series of images over time should indicate successional maturation of riparian vegetation. Wetland Success Criteria The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) has a current WETS table for Johnston County upon which to base a normal rainfall amount and average growing season. The closest comparable data station was determined to be the WETS station for Smithfield, NC. The growing season for Johnston County is 233 days long, extending from March 18 to November 6, and is based on a daily minimum temperature greater than 28 degrees Fahrenheit occurring in five of ten years. Based upon field observation across the site, the NRCS mapping units show a good correlation to actual site conditions in areas of the site. Mitigation guidance for soils in the Coastal Plain suggests a hydroperiod for the Bibb soil of 12-16 percent of the growing season. The hydrology success criterion for the Site is to restore the water table so that it will remain continuously within 12 inches of the soil surface for at least 12 percent of the growing season (approximately 27 days) at each groundwater gauge location. Vegetation Success Criteria Specific and measurable success criteria for plant density within the riparian buffers on the Site will follow IRT Guidance. Vegetation monitoring plots will be a minimum of 0.02 acres in size and cover a minimum of two percent of the planted area. Vegetation monitoring will occur between July 111 and leaf drop. The interim measures of vegetative success for the site will be the survival of at least 320 planted three-year old trees per acre at the end of Year 3, 260 five-year old trees at the end of Year 5 with an average height of seven feet, and the final vegetative success criteria will be 210 trees per acre with an average height of 10 feet at the end of Year 7. Height measurement success criteria do not apply to the understory trees or shrubs. Volunteer trees will be counted, identified to species, and included in the yearly monitoring reports, but will not be counted towards the success criteria of total planted stems. Hannah Bridge 3 Year 5 Monitoring Report Stream and Wetland Mitigation Site October 2023 1.4Project Components The project area is comprised of two separate easement locations along multiple drainage features that flow into Hannah Creek. The northern easement area captures a single tributary to Hannah Creek and a portion of its headwaters. The southern easement area is separated from the northern area by an active agricultural field and is divided into three different areas due to a utility crossing and a culvert crossing. The stream and wetland mitigation components are summarized below and in Table 1.

Priority I restoration reaches incorporate the design of a single -thread meandering channel, with parameters based on data taken from the reference site, published empirical relationships, NC Coastal Plain Regional Curves, and hydrologic and hydraulic analyses. As a result of the restoration of planform and dimension, frequent overbank flows, and a restored riparian buffer provide the appropriate hydrology and sediment transport throughout this Coastal Plain watershed. All non -vegetated areas within the easement were planted with native vegetation and any areas of invasive species were removed and/or treated. Reach HB1 — Reach begins at western limits of project totaling 1,430 linear feet but is adjusted to 1,400 linear feet due to a 30-foot break in the easement due to an overhead power line. Priority I Restoration was used for Reach HB1 which included relocating the channel towards the north, such that it meanders within the middle of the valley. Reach HB2 (STA 14+45 to STA 18+37) — Reach begins at the end of HB1 and flows northeast to the confluence with Reach HB3 totaling 392 linear feet. Enhancement Level II was used for Reach HB2, beginning approximately 200 feet downstream of the confluence with HF1. Minimal grading and live stake planting were required in the few areas that exhibited bank erosion. Invasive species were treated and removed during construction, and those areas were replanted with native riparian vegetation. Reach HB3 (STA 18+37 to STA 36+44) — Reach immediately downstream of Reach HB2 and flows east to an existing farm crossing totaling 1,807 linear feet. Priority I Restoration was used for Reach HB3 to address historic straightening and irregular banks resulting from cattle impacts. The design approach included meandering the channel within the natural valley and backfilling the existing stream. Reach HB4 (STA 36+84 to STA 42+63; STA 42+63 to 44+91) — Reach beginning at farm crossing just downstream of Reach HB3 and flows north to its confluence with Hannah Creek. A combination of Enhancement I and Preservation was used for Reach HB4 downstream of the easement break. Enhancement I was used for over 500 feet beginning downstream of the easement break, and Preservation was used for the channel from the Enhancement I section to the confluence with Hannah Creek. The design approach included installing log structures at various points along the channel to raise the channel invert within the upper section. Because the channel was previously channelized and relocated to the west side of the valley, the structures allow flows to frequently inundate the valley floor and existing wetlands located to the east. A floodplain bench was also constructed along the left bank within the enhancement section. Reach HF1 (STA 2+18 to STA 13+58; STA 13+58 to 16+04) — Reach beginning in a forested area in the southern portion of the project and flows north until its confluence with Reach HB1 totaling 1,386 linear feet. Preservation was used for Reach HF1 because the majority of the channel is stable throughout the easement and provides a variety of aquatic habitats. Reach HF2 (STA 6+40 to STA 7+89) — Reach beginning in agricultural field in the southern portion of the project and flows north until its confluence with Reach HF1 totaling 149 linear feet of Preservation. Hannah Bridge 5 Year 5 Monitoring Report Stream and Wetland Mitigation Site October 2023 • Reach TH3 (STA 0+63 to STA 7+79) — Reach begins just downstream of disturbed wetlands and an existing farm crossing located at the top of the project. The reach flows to the east into Hannah Creek totaling 716 linear feet. Enhancement Level I was used on Reach TH3. The design approach on this reach focused on improving the riparian buffer and in -stream habitat and floodplain benching. Construction activities included cutting a floodplain bench along the south side of the channel along the upper reach and installing grade control and woody debris structures throughout to improve vertical stability and aquatic habitat. Wetland The Site offers a total ecosystem restoration opportunity. As such, the wetland restoration and enhancement is closely tied to the stream restoration. The Site provides 10.73 WMUs through a combination of wetland restoration, enhancement, and preservation treatments. Because of the soil characteristics and variations observed throughout the site, the primary wetland restoration activities, at a 1:1 credit ratio, were plugging the existing channel and constructing a stream channel at a higher elevation that elevates shallow groundwater depths and more frequently floods adjacent wetlands. Additional backfilling to create shallow depressions within the old channel and removal of spoil from pond excavation along the floodplains aids in the restoration of a natural floodplain surface relative to the surrounding landscape. Surface roughening and creation of shallow depressions throughout the restoration area provides an appropriate landscape for diverse habitat. Due to compaction and long term agricultural use, a shallow ripping of the surface to a depth of 6 to 8 inches was called for to allow adequate porosity for infiltration and storage and provide microtopographic relief. Wetland enhancement is located along the floodplains of the stream restoration and enhancement reaches within the jurisdictional wetland areas. The construction of a farm pond had altered surface drainage and placed spoil across the floodplain. As part of the wetland enhancement, this pond was removed, and hydrology was redirected towards the forested and grazed wetlands. The existing pasture areas on the Site were treated with wetland enhancement at a credit ratio of 2:1. A credit ratio of 3:1 was used for the grazed, forested wetland areas. The wetland mitigation treatment was primarily re -planting the disturbed pastures as forested wetlands and excluding livestock from the pasture and grazed forested wetlands. Enhancement activities included: reconnecting low-lying areas of hydric soil with the floodplain, farm pond removal, planting native tree and shrub species commonly found in small stream swamp ecosystems, and surface roughening to increase infiltration and storage. For the pond removal, the pond will be drained before breaching the dam and removing all existing PVC pipe. Per direction of the engineer, it is expected that excess spoil from the project will be placed within the existing pond footprint. 1.6Construction and As -Built Conditions Stream construction and planting was completed in May 2019. The Hannah Bridge Mitigation Site was built to design plans and guidelines. Project credits are based on design centerline, but as -built stream lengths are shown on Table 1. The as -built survey is attached in the Baseline Monitoring Report and includes a redlined version. 1.7 Year 5 Monitoring Performance (MY5) The Hannah Bridge Year 5 Monitoring activities were performed in May and September 2023. All Year 5 Monitoring data is present below and in the appendices. The Site is on track to meeting vegetation and stream success criteria, but not wetland interim criteria. Hannah Bridge 6 Year 5 Monitoring Report Stream and Wetland Mitigation Site October 2023 Vegetation Monitoring of the 17 fixed vegetation plots (VP) and three random vegetation plots (RVP) was completed during September 2023. Vegetation data are in Appendix C, associated photos are in Appendix B, and plot locations are in Appendix B. MY5 monitoring data indicates that all 20 plots are exceeding the interim success criteria of 260 planted stems per acre. Planted stem densities ranged from 364 to 1,093 planted stems per acre with a mean of 652 planted stems per acre across all plots. A total of 18 species were documented within the plots. Volunteer species were reported in 10 plots. The average planted stem height was 12.6 feet. Visual assessment of vegetation outside of the monitoring plots indicates that the herbaceous vegetation is becoming well established throughout the project. A few areas of Chinese privet (Ligustrum sinense), sweetgum (Liquidambarstyracif(ua), and loblolly pine (Pinus taeda) were noted during monitoring activities, most notable near Veg plots 8 and 17. These areas will be treated before the 2024 growing season. Additional treatment will continue throughout the life of the Project when necessary to ensure that the invasive and nuisance species are not compromising the growth and overall health of the native, planted trees. The small horse pasture that was partially within the easement north of 1-1131 has been discussed with the landowner and RES is assisting with moving the fence to the easement boundary before the 2024 growing season. New easement markers and signs have been installed to mark where the fence needs to be. Only one other instance of encroachment was noted during monitoring; a small corner near VP17 is missing a corner marker. This will be re -installed before the 2024 growing season. The conservation easement adjustment adjacent to the powerline easement discussed in previous years is still being processed. RES has gained approval from all parties to enact the change in order to allow permanent access to the powerline easement. Correspondence about the matter is included in Appendix F. Stream Geomorphology Geomorphology data for MY5 was collected during May 2023. Summary tables and cross section plots are in Appendix D. Overall, the MY5 cross sections relatively match the MYO cross sections. Cross sections 17 and 18 are offset from previous year's data due to a survey inaccuracy. All measurements indicate that both cross sections are stable. All reaches were designed as sand bed channels and remain classified as sand bed channels. Visual assessment of the stream channel was performed to document signs of instability, such as eroding banks, structural instability, or excessive sedimentation. The stream repair that occurred on 1-1134 in February 2022 remains stable. The channel is transporting sediment as designed and will continue to be monitored for aggradation and degradation. Stream Hydrology During MY5, bankfull events were recorded on all three stage recorders. Stage Recorder 1-1131 recorded six with a maximum event of 1.45 feet, Stage Recorder 1-1133 recorded seventeen with a maximum event of 2.18 feet, and Stage Recorder 1-1134 recorded nine with a maximum event of 1.14 feet. The flow gauge on TH3 recorded 152 consecutive flow days and 255 cumulative flow days. Gauge locations are in Figure 2 and the associated data is in Appendix E. Hannah Bridge 7 Year 5 Monitoring Report Stream and Wetland Mitigation Site October 2023 Wetland Hydrology In May 2023 one new monitoring well was installed, GW14 in Wetland 14, this was done to better represent hydrology in areas where historic data contradicts field observations. Five of the sixteen groundwater wells met the 12 percent hydroperiod success criteria. Four out of the sixteen groundwater wells and the two reference groundwater wells had a hydroperiod between 5-11%. RES feels these four wells are especially relevant as a lot of these areas were enhancement areas and were not for restoration credit. Seven of the sixteen groundwater wells had a hydroperiod of 5% or less. The hydroperiods of the sixteen groundwater wells ranged from 1 to 29 percent and the two reference groundwater wells ranged from 7 to 8 percent. Generally, hydrology has improved onsite since last year's drought, although hydroperiods are not as high as hoped after a year of more normal precipitation. This is potentially due to the dry winter that was experienced in Johnston county from November 2022 to February 2023. RES believes the dry winter after a drought prevented some of the groundwater recharge needed for groundwater level to be maintained for at least 12% of the growing season. This is evidenced by the reference wells having a lower hydroperiod than in years past. So, while 2023 was a year of normal precipitation for most months, the wetland systems have not been able to fully recover from 2022 and conditions are not normal. The drought conditions for Johnston County from the National Integrated Drought Information System website can be found in Appendix E. A breakdown of well success by wetland is as follows: Wetland 1 (Enhancement High, 5.76 acres) — High Risk • GW1 recorded a 3% hydroperiod in MY5 which increased from MY4 1% hydroperiod. • GW11 recorded an 8% hydroperiod in MY5 and has had mixed success over the years with it having a 3% hydroperiod in MY4, and a 13% hydroperiod in MY3. • GW14 recorded a 4% hydroperiod and was just installed in July 2023 therefore the data is not showing the full growing season. • Vegetation noted in this wetland includes Juncus effusus, Polygonum pensylvanicum, Carex sp., Beohmeria cylindrica, and Scirpus cyperinus. Wetland 4 (Enhancement Low, 1.72 acres) — Moderate Risk • GW2 recorded a 4% hydroperiod in MY5 but historically has had higher hydroperiods. o This well is not expected to reach the 12% hydroperiod criteria based on the performance of the reference well just upstream. GW2 and RGW1 have historically had very similar hydroperiods. RES expects that this area is a jurisdictional wetland and will display a hydroperiod between 7 and 9%. • GW3 recorded a 14% hydroperiod in MY5 and has had successful hydroperiods in MY1-MY3 as well. • RES believes this wetland needs additional time to recharge after the drought of 2022, and should have higher hydroperiods in Monitoring Years 6 and 7. Wetland 5 (Enhancement High, .97 acres) — No Risk • GW5 recorded a 29% hydroperiod and has been considered successful every year. This wetland gauge and surrounding area is not of concern, based on the past year's hydroperiods and wetland characteristics in the area. Wetland 6 (Enhancement High, 3.78 acres) — Low Risk • GW4 recorded a 7% hydroperiod but historically has been successful MY1-MY3. • Hydrophytic vegetation has been recorded in the area including Boehmeria cylindrica, Arundinaria sp., Carex sp., and Nyssa sylvatica. • RES believes this wetland needs more time to recharge after the drought of 2022. Winter groundwater levels were higher at the beginning of 2022 than they were in 2023, leading to a dryer Hannah Bridge 8 Year 5 Monitoring Report Stream and Wetland Mitigation Site October 2023 start to the 2023 growing season and a smaller hydroperiod. Additionally, according to Web Soil Survey, this well is located within the Lynchburg soil series. Lynchburg is a slightly more well drained series than Bibb, with a typical hydroperiod ranging from 7-9%. With the dryer start of the 2023 growing season, and the somewhat poorly draining soil series, GW4 experienced a shorter hydroperiod than normal. A normal winter after a more normal precipitation year will hopefully return this wetland's hydroperiod to above 12% next year. Wetland 10 (Enhancement High, 1.35 acres) — Moderate Risk • GW10 recorded a 4% hydroperiod which is an improvement from last years hydroperiod. • GW10-B recorded a 17% hydroperiod and was also successful last year. This wetland gauge is not of concern, based on the past year's hydroperiods and wetland characteristics in the area. Wetland 14 (Re-establishment, 3.27 acres) — Moderate Risk Right Bank - low risk • GW7 recorded a 16% hydroperiod and was also successful in MY3. • GW12 recorded a 20% hydroperiod and was also successful in MY3. • GW13 recorded a 6% hydroperiod, this could be due to at -risk areas surrounding the well. Left Bank - high risk • GW6 recorded a 2% hydroperiod which is an improvement from MY4. The nearby ditch has been plugged in to try and improve hydrology. Nearby vegetation includes species of Juncus and Carex. • GW8 recorded a 1% hydroperiod which could be due to it being on the border with an at -risk area of the wetland. Surrounding vegetation includes Juncus effusus and Polygonum pensylvanicum. • GW8-B recorded a 2% hydroperiod. Surrounding vegetation includes species of Juncus and Carex, Populus deltoides, Salix nigra, and Taxodium distichum. • GW9 recorded an 8% hydroperiod which is an improvement from MY4. Well success can be seen on Figure 3 in Appendix E. Groundwater well locations can be found in Figure 2 and the associated data is in Appendix E. 2.0 Methods Stream monitoring was conducted using a Topcon GTS-312 Total Station. Three-dimensional coordinates associated with cross-section data were collected in the field (NAD83 State Plane feet FIPS 3200). Morphological data were collected at 20 cross -sections. Survey data were imported into CAD, ArcGIS®, and Microsoft Excel® for data processing and analysis. The stage recorders include an automatic pressure transducer flow gauge and a manual crest gauge. The flow gauges were installed within the channel and will record flow conditions at an hourly interval. The manual crest gauges were installed on the bank at the bankfull elevation. During quarterly visits to the Site, the height of the corkline will be recorded. Automatic pressure transducer data from the flow gauges will be corrected using bankfull recordings from the crest gauges to produce the stage of the channel at hourly intervals. The stage recorder on H134 does not have a manual crest gauge and the bankfull events are reported using the elevation of the top of bank. The flow gauge on the intermittent stream is corrected using the elevation of the downstream riffle to detect stream flow. Vegetation success is being monitored at 17 fixed vegetation plots and three random vegetation plots. Vegetation plot monitoring follows the CVS-EEP Level 2 Protocol for Recording Vegetation (Lee et al. 2008) and includes analysis of species composition and density of planted species. Data are processed using the CVS data entry tool. In the field, the four corners of each plot were permanently marked with PVC at the origin and metal conduit at the other corners. Photos of each plot are to be taken from the origin each monitoring year. The random plots are to be collected in locations where there are no fixed vegetation Hannah Bridge 9 Year 5 Monitoring Report Stream and Wetland Mitigation Site October 2023 plots. Random plots will most likely be collected in the form of 100 square meter belt transects with variable dimensions. Tree species and height will be recorded for each planted stem and the transects will be mapped and new locations will be monitored in subsequent years. Wetland hydrology is monitored to document success in wetland restoration and enhancement areas (as requested by NCIRT). This is accomplished with 15 automatic pressure transducer gauges (located in groundwater wells) that record daily groundwater levels. Thirteen have been installed within the wetland crediting area and two within reference wetland areas. One automatic pressure transducer is installed above ground for use as a barometric reference. Gauges are downloaded quarterly and wetland hydroperiods are calculated during the growing season. Well installation followed current regulatory guidance. Visual observations of primary and secondary wetland hydrology indicators are also recorded during quarterly site visits.

This area is the only existing access to the powerline right-of- way from the adjacent property for maintanence activities. The access has continued to be utilized since the project's establishment, although it is difficult to determine if this access has been solely by the landowner, the utility company, or a mix of both. Because this adjustment will take place outside of buffer credit generating areas, and no impacts to crediting areas are expected, RES believes the best course of action is to adjust the easement to allow this access. RES will coordinate with the landowner to swap an equivalent portion of land at the downstream end of HB4 where it confluences with Hannah Creek. This would maintain the size of the conservation easement, and avoid the continued encroachment issue. The IRT had the following comments regarding this request. RES' reponses are in blue: DWR is reluctant to support the proposed easement changes without reviewing additional information. DWR requests that RES submit a formal conservation easement modification request, including public benefit justification and discussion of avoidance and minimization measures. If the landowner access is currently being inhibited by property boundaries, updated figures showing parcel lines should be included in the request package. This easement adjustment is being proposed to allow continued access to a powerline easement. The powerline right-of-way was not included in the original conservation easement, but access to said line was overlooked. Negotiating a land swap and updating the conservation easement to allow access to the public utility for maintenance will not affect the size or credit generating areas of the project. Please see attached maps for the proposed area to be cut from the current easement areas and the current parcel lines with the proposed area to be added to the project area. 2. DWR is concerned about the precedence that these easement modifications may create, even if they are minor requests. The landowners agreed to the current easement boundaries five years ago. And if they are new landowners, they should have been aware res.us 0 of the easement boundaries prior to purchasing the property. These conservation easements are meant to hold in perpetuity. While the requested changes result in no direct impacts or losses of mitigation assets, we need to consider the indirect affects that reducing the easement area may have on protected resources. At minimum, DWR needs to show due diligence in reviewing easement modification requests for our records. While the landowner may be also be using this access to enter the power line right-of- way, RES wishes to adjust the easement for the use of the utility company. This access should have been included in the original easement along with the power line itself and it allows for a safe space for the long-term stewards to access and park their vehicles when monitoring the site. Please let me know if you need any additional information.
