1 Project Summary
1.1 Project Location and Description
The Upper Rocky Mitigation Project (Project) is located adjacent to William Hough High School in
Huntersville within Mecklenburg County, NC (35.459622, -80.829787). The Project is located within the 8-
digit HUC 03040105, in the NC Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ) Sub-basin 03-07-11 (Warm
Water Thermal Regime), in the Upper Rocky River Local Watershed Plan (LWP) Study Area, and in the
Target Local Watershed (TLW) 03040105010010 (West Branch Rocky River), all in the Lower Yadkin River
Basin. As recommended in the LWP, the Project was identified as a potential opportunity to implement
water quality improvement features, or combinations of land management practices or conservation
measures, collectively with stream/wetland restoration and riparian buffer restoration to reduce
erosion/sedimentation and nutrients/fecal coliform bacteria as major stressors to water quality and
habitat.
The Project involved the restoration, enhancement, and permanent protection of ten stream reaches (R1,
R2, R3, R4, R5, R5a, R6, R7, R7a, and R8) and their riparian buffers totaling approximately 9,652 linear feet
of stream. The Project also included a combination of riparian wetland preservation, re-establishment,
and enhancement totaling 14.51 acres. The Project will provide significant ecological improvements and
functional uplift through decreasing nutrient and sediment loads within the watershed. See the mitigation
plan for a detailed benefits summary and Appendix A, Table 1 for a summary of project assets. Figures 1a,
1b, and 1c illustrate the project mitigation components.
Monitoring Year 2 (MY2) activities occurred in May and November 2023. This report presents the data for
MY2. The Project meets the MY2 success criteria for stream hydrology, stream horizontal and vertical
stability, stream flow, and vegetation. Four of the fifteen wetland gauges did not meet 12 percent
hydrology criteria. Based on these results, the Project is on a trajectory to meet interim success criteria in
Monitoring Year 3 (MY3). For more information on the chronology of the project history and activity, refer
to Appendix A, Table 2. Relevant project contact informationn is presented in Appendix A, Table 3 and
project background information is presented in Appendix A, Table 4.
1.2 Monitoring Schedule and Reporting
The Project will be monitored on a regular basis with physical inspections to occur a minimum of twice
per year throughout the seven-year post-construction monitoring period, or until performance standards
are met. The measure of stream restoration success will be documented by bankfull flows and no change
in stream channel classification. The measure of wetland success will be documented by hydrology. The
measure of vegetative success for the Project 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. Site
inspections and monitoring reports will also identify components and features that require routine
maintenance or adaptive management. The easement holder and long-term steward is Unique Places to
Save (UP2S). UP2S will be responsible for annual inspection of the Project after close-out to ensure that
restrictions in place required by the recorded Conservation Easement document are being upheld.
1.3 Project Goals and Objectives
The Project will meet the goals and objectives described in the approved Final Mitigation Plan and will
address general restoration goals and opportunities outlined in the North Carolina Division of Mitigation
2
Services (DMS) Lower Yadkin Pee-Dee River Basin Restoration Priority Plan (RBRP) (DEQ 2009) and in the
Rocky River Watershed Management Plan (CMSWS 2015). More specifically, watershed goals and
management strategies described in the Upper Rocky River Local Watershed Plan (LWP) will be met by:
• Reducing sediment, soil erosion, turbidity, and nutrient inputs such as fecal coliform bacteria,
nitrogen, and phosphorus to Rocky River and the Lower Yadkin River Watershed.
• Restoring, enhancing, and protecting streams, wetlands, riparian buffers, and aquatic habitat
functions.
• Improving flood attenuation and stormwater runoff by intercepting concentrated storm flows,
providing more overbank flows, and establishing a connection to the active floodplain.
• Improving riparian corridor management and targeting restoration of impacted streams and
riparian buffer areas.
To accomplish these project-specific goals, the following objectives will be measured to document overall
project success:
• Provide a floodplain connection to the incised Project stream reaches by lowering bank height
ratios (BHRs) to less than 1.2 and incorporating water quality improvement features, thereby
promoting more natural floodplain storage and overbank flood flows.
• Improve bedform diversity by increasing scour pool spacing and depth variability.
• Increase native species riparian buffer and wetland vegetation density/composition along
streambank and floodplain areas that meet requirements of a minimum 50-foot-wide and 210
stems/acre after the monitoring period.
• Improve aquatic habitat and fish species diversity and migration through the addition of in-stream
cover and native woody debris.
• Site protection through a 42.74-acre conservation easement in excess of 50 feet from the top of
the restored streambanks that will protect all streams, wetlands, and aquatic resources in
perpetuity.
1.4 Project Success Criteria
The success criteria for the Project will follow approved performance standards and monitoring protocols
from the final approved mitigation plan, which was developed in compliance with the USACE October
2016 Guidance, USACE Stream Mitigation Guidelines (April 2003 and October 2005), and 2008
Compensatory Mitigation Final Rule. 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. Specific
success criteria components and evaluation methods are described below.
1.4.1 Single-Thread Streams
Stream Hydrology: Four separate bankfull or over bank events must be documented within the seven-year
monitoring period, and the stream hydrology monitoring will continue until four bankfull events have been
documented in separate years. Stream hydrology monitoring will be accomplished with pressure
transducers installed in pools and correlating sensor depth to top of bank elevation (see Appendix E for
installation diagrams). Recorded water depth above the top of bank elevation will document a bankfull
event. The devices will record water depth hourly and will be inspected quarterly. In addition to the
3
pressure transducers, traditional cork gauges will be installed at bankfull elevation and will be used to
document bankfull events with photographs.
Stream Profiles, Vertical Stability, and Floodplain Access: Stream profiles, as a measure of vertical stability
and floodplain access, will be evaluated by looking at Bank Height Ratios (BHR). In addition, observed
bedforms should be consistent with those observed for channels of the design stream type(s). The BHR
shall not exceed 1.2 along the restored Project stream reaches. This standard only applies to restored
reaches of the channel where BHRs were corrected through design and construction. Vertical stability will
be evaluated with visual assessment, cross-sections and, if directed by the IRT, longitudinal profile.
Stream Horizontal Stability: Cross-sections will be used to evaluate horizontal stream stability. There
should be little change expected in as-built restoration cross-sections. If measurable changes do occur, they
should be evaluated to determine if the changes represent a movement toward a more unstable condition
(e.g., downcutting, erosion) or a movement towards increased stability (e.g., settling, vegetation
establishment, deposition along the streambanks, 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.
Reference photo transects will be taken at each permanent cross-section. Lateral photos should not
indicate excessive erosion or continuing degradation of the streambanks. Photographs will be taken of both
streambanks at each cross-section. A survey tape stretched between the permanent cross-section
monuments/pins will be centered in each of the streambank photographs. The water elevation will be
shown in the lower edge of the frame, and as much of the streambank as possible will be included in each
photo. Photographers will attempt to consistently maintain the same area in each photo over time.
Streambed Material Condition and Stability: Pebble counts or streambed material samples will not be
collected per the IRT. The IRT reserves the right to request pebble count data/particle distributions if
deemed necessary during the monitoring period.
Jurisdictional Stream Flow: Monitoring of stream flow will be conducted to demonstrate that the restored
stream systems classified as intermittent exhibit surface flow for a minimum of 30 consecutive days
throughout some portion of the year during years with normal or below normal rainfall conditions. Stream
flow monitoring will be accomplished with pressure transducers installed in pools and correlating sensor
depth to the downstream top of riffle elevation. If the pool water depth is at or above the top of riffle
elevation, then the channel will be assumed to have surface flow (see Appendix E for installation diagrams).
The devices will record water elevation twice per day and will be inspected quarterly to document surface
hydrology and provide a basis for evaluating flow response to rainfall events.
1.4.2 Wetlands
Wetland Hydrology: The performance standard for wetland hydrology will be 10 to 12 percent based on
the suggested wetland saturation thresholds for soils’ taxonomic subgroups. The proposed success
criteria for wetland hydrology will be when the soils are saturated within 12 inches of the soil surface for
10 to 12 percent (21 to 26 days) of the 214-day growing season (April through November) based on the
WETS data table for Mecklenburg County, NC. The saturated conditions should occur during a period when
antecedent precipitation has been normal or drier than normal for a minimum frequency of 5 years in 10
(USACE, 2005 and 2010b). Precipitation data will be obtained from an on-site rain gauge and the Mt. Island
4
Lake (MTIN7) NC State Climate Office station, approximately 16.2 miles southeast of the Project site. If
rainfall amounts for any given year during the monitoring period are abnormally low, reference wetland
hydrology data will be compared to determine if there is a correlation with the weather conditions and
site variability. For the first two years after construction (MY1 and MY2), it is reasonable to expect a
hydroperiod of eight to 10 percent (18 to 21 days).
1.4.3 Vegetation
Vegetation monitoring will occur in the fall each required monitoring year, prior to leaf drop. Plots will be
monitored in years 0, 1, 2, 3, 5, and 7. Vegetative success for the Project during the intermediate
monitoring years will be based the survival of at least 320, three-year-old planted trees per acre at the
end of Year 3 of the monitoring period, and at least 260, five-year-old planted trees per acre that must
average seven feet in height at the end of Year 5 of the monitoring period. The final vegetative restoration
success criteria will be achieving a density of no less than 210, seven-year-old planted stems per acre that
must average 10 feet in height in Year 7 of monitoring.
1.4.4 Visual Assessment
WLS will conduct visual assessments in support of mitigation performance monitoring. Visual assessments
of all stream reaches will be conducted twice per monitoring year with at least five months in between
each site visit for each of the seven years of monitoring. Photographs will be used to visually document
system performance and any areas of concern related to streambank and bed stability, condition of in-
stream structures, channel migration, active headcuts, live stake mortality, invasive plant species or animal
browsing, easement boundary encroachments, cattle exclusion fence damage, and general streambed
conditions. Permanent photo points will be at the cross-sections, crossings, and Enhancement reaches.

3.1 Morphological Assessment
Refer to Appendices B and D for summary data tables, morphological plots, and stream photographs.
3.1.1 Stream & Longitudinal Profile and Horizontal Pattern
Visual assessment was utilized for assessment of MY2 horizontal and vertical stability. The visual
assessment for each stream reach documented MY2 stream channel pattern, longitudinal profiles, and in-
stream structure location/function still closely match the profile design parameters and MY0 baseline
conditions (Appendix D). The MY2 planform geometry, or pattern, fell within acceptable ranges of the
design parameters for all restored reaches. Minor channel adjustments in riffle slopes, pool depths and
pattern were observed based on natural sediment migration and stream bank vegetation establishment,
but do not present a stability concern.
Two stream problem areas (SPAs) were identified during MY1. Two additional stream problem areas were
identified during MY2.
• SPA 1 – During MY1, WLS staff noted slumping and erosion occurring at station 15+50. Slumping
at SPA 1 is due to bank seepage from adjacent Wetland 7.
o Actions taken – Repair to SPA (R3, STA 15+50) 1 was completed on October 2nd, 2023. A
geolift in-stream structure with toe wood was installed on the outside meander bend
from the log vane structure to the head of the next downstream riffle (49 ft). Once
completed, all minimal disturbances were seeded & matted and live-stakes were
harvested on site and installed in the stream bank. A small number of bare-root trees will
be planted on the floodplain adjacent to the stream repair during to MY3 during the
dormant season. Planting species and quantities will be included in the MY3 report.
• SPA 2 – Minor slumping is occurring on the left bank (R-1) near station 18+50. This area is
consistently wet from seepage from an adjacent floodplain depression flowing into the stream.
The vegetation in this area is establishing well, and this area is trending stable. No further
slumping was noted in MY2.
o Actions taken – Approximately 25 live stakes (Salix nigra, black willow) were installed in
the seepage area to further stabilize the bank in May 2023 during MY2. This area will
continue to be closely monitored.
• SPA 3 – Minor slumping and erosion are occurring on the right bank outside meander, at
approximate station 19+75 on R3. W7 is directly adjacent to this area, and seepage from
groundwater is keeping the bank consistently wet causing the slumping. WLS will continue to
monitor this area further in MY3.
o Actions taken – WLS staff installed approximately 30 fresh-cut live stakes (Salix nigra,
black willow) in the area of concern, upstream, and downstream of the meander in May
2023 (MY2).
• SPA 4 – During MY2, piping under the log structure at station 14+30 was observed on R2 just
below the culvert for the greenway crossing. The structure is not functioning as designed, but the
bank and stream are stable. The footer log installed in the structure is maintaining grade control.
The surface water elevation is above the culvert invert to continue to allow aquatic passage. No
remedial action is proposed at this time. WLS will continue to closely monitor this stream problem
area during MY3, and any remedial action will be documented in the MY3 report.
o Actions taken – No remedial action was taken during MY2.
7
3.1.2 Stream Channel Dimension
The MY2 stream channel dimensions generally match the design parameters and are within a stable range
of tolerance. Twenty-one cross-sections were installed on restoration reaches with eleven installed in
riffles and ten installed in pools. One cross-section was installed in a riffle on an enhancement I reach (R2)
for a total of 22 cross-sections. Twenty-two permanently installed cross-sections show little to no change
in BHR or bankfull area when compared to as-built measurements, and all BHRs are less than 1.2. It is
expected that over time some pools may accumulate fine sediment and organic matter, however, this is
not an indicator of channel instability. Maximum riffle depths are expected to fluctuate slightly
throughout the monitoring period as the channels adjust to the restored flow regime. Cross-section
overlays and measurements can be found in Appendix D.
3.2 Stream Hydrology
3.2.1 Stream Flow
Two pressure transducers (flow gauges) were installed in January 2022 in the restoration sections on
reaches R5a and R8 to document baseflow conditions. Both flow gauges documented that the stream
exhibited surface flow for a minimum of 30 consecutive days during the monitoring year. See the chart
below and Appendix E for flow gauge information. Additionally, to determine if rainfall amounts are
normal for the given year, precipitation data was collected from an onsite rain gauge and from the Mt.
Island Lake (MTIN7) NC State Climate Office station, approximately 16.2 miles southeast of the Project site.
Rainfall was normal for January – October 2023.

3.2.2 Bankfull Events
Four crest gauges were installed in January and February 2022 to document bankfull events on R1, R3, R5,
and R7. CG-4 (R-1) had additional bracing added and the bankfull height was re-surveyed during MY2. The
new bankfull depth for CG-4 is 2.75 feet (Appendix E). During MY2, bankfull events were recorded on all
four crest gauges. Additional bankfull events were recorded on cork crest gauges (one event at CG-2 and
one event at CG-4) and by visual observation of bankfull indicators (three events observed on 5/4/2023,
8/8/2023, and 11/7/2023). See the chart below and Appendix E for crest gauge and bankfull event
information. Recorder locations can be found on Figure 1.

3.3 Wetlands
Fifteen groundwater wells were installed in January – March 2022 to monitor wetland hydrology. Eleven
of the fifteen groundwater wells met the 12 percent hydrology criteria for MY2. Four gauges (GW-8, GW-
12, GW-13, and GW-15) did not meet the 12 percent criteria, nor the 8-10%. As stated in the Mitigation
Plan, it is reasonable to expect a hydroperiod of eight to ten percent in MY1 and MY2. These gauges will
continue to be monitored in MY3, and WLS will install an additional gauge near GW-8 and GW-13.
Groundwater well locations are shown on the CCPVs, and associated data is in Appendix E.
Groundwater gauges GW-3 and GW-4 are installed in non-wetland areas, but per the approved mitigation
plan, WLS anticipates that additional wetland areas not contained in the hydric soils report will develop
over time along R5. WLS proposed to re-delineate these wetland areas along R5 to be included as wetland
mitigation credits. WLS will delineate these areas prior to Year 4 of monitoring and include any of these
additional areas in the Year 4 Monitoring report.
3.4 Vegetation
Monitoring of the 12 permanent vegetation plots and three random transects was completed during
November 2023. Vegetation data can be found in Appendix C with the associated photos located in
Appendix B. The MY2 average planted density is 615 stems per acre, which exceeds the interim measure
of vegetative success of at least 320 planted stems per acre at the end of the third monitoring year. Each
vegetation plot is meeting success criteria with 324 to 850 stems per acre. Volunteer persimmon
(Diospyros virginiana), green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica), sycamore (Platanus occidentalis), and tulip
poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera) were noted, and more are expected to establish in upcoming years. Visual
assessment of vegetation outside of the monitoring plots indicates that the herbaceous vegetation is
becoming well established throughout the project.
Privet (Ligustrum sinense) and autumn olive (Elaeagnus umbellata) understory was found in pockets
across the Project area prior to construction. There are seven areas of remaining isolated populations of
privet and autumn olive understory. Small populations (~0.67 acres in total) of kudzu (Pueraria montana)
were found in a few locations on site. Construction activities involved treatment and removal of these
populations. At this time no invasive species treatment was conducted during My2. Ripple Ecosolutions,
LLC is contracted to treat privet and autumn olive utilizing mechanical and chemical methods during the
dormant season prior to MY3. Mechanical and chemical spot treatments will continue in MY3 and will be
documented in future reports.

4 Methods
Stream cross-section monitoring was conducted using a Topcon Total Station. Three-dimensional
coordinates associated with cross-section data were collected in the field (NAD83 State Plane feet PIPS
3200). Morphological data was collected at 22 cross-sections. Survey data was imported into Microsoft
Excel® for processing and analysis. The stage recorders include an automatic pressure transducer set in
PVC piping in the channel. The elevation of the bed and top of bank at each stage recorder location was
recorded to be able to document presence of water in the channel and out of bank events. Visual
observations (i.e. wrack or debris lines) and traditional cork crest gauges will also be used to document
out of bank events.
Vegetation success is being monitored at a total of 12 permanent vegetation plots and three random
transects. Vegetation plot monitoring follows the CVS-EEP Level 2 Protocol for Recording Vegetation,
version 4.2 (Lee et al. 2008) and includes analysis of species composition and density of planted species.
Data is processed using the NCDMS ShinyApp tool. In the field, the four corners of each plot were
permanently marked with PVC at the origin and rebar at the other corners. Photos of each plot are to be
taken from the origin each monitoring year. Tree species and height will be recorded for each planted
stem.
Wetland hydrology is monitored to document success in wetland restoration, enhancement, and
preservation areas where hydrology was affected. This is accomplished with 15 automatic pressure
transducer gauges (located in groundwater wells) that record daily (twice per day) groundwater levels.
Pressure transducers are HOBO Water Level (13ft) Data Loggers made by Onset. Thirteen gauges have
been installed within wetland crediting areas. Two gauges were installed in areas along R5 where WLS
anticipates additional wetland areas to develop over time. 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. Gauge installation followed current regulatory
guidance. Visual observations of primary and secondary wetland hydrology indicators are also recorded
during quarterly site visits.

Note: The smaller the channel the closer the survey measurements are to their limit of reliable detection, therefore inter-annual variation in morphological measurement (as a percentage) is by default magnified as channel size decereases. Some of the variability above is the result of this factor and some is due to the large amount of depositional sediments observed.

Cross-Section 21 (Riffle - R1)Cross-Section 22 (Riffle - R2)The above morphology parameters reflect the 2018 guidance that arose from the mitigation technical workgroup consisting of DMS,the IRT and industry mitigation
providers/practitioners. The outcome resulted in the focus on three primary morphological parameters of interest for the purposes of tracking channel change moving
forward. They are the bank height ratio using a constant As-built bankfull area and the cross sectional area and max depth based on each years low top of bank. These
are calculated as follows:
1 - Bank Height Ratio (BHR) takes the As-built bankful area as the basis for adjusting each subsequent years bankfull elevation. For example if the As-built bankfull area
was 10 ft2, then the MY1 bankfull elevation would be adjusted until the calculated bankfull area within the MY1 cross section survey = 10 ft2. The BHR would then be
calculated with the difference between the LOW top of bank (LTOB) elevation for MY1 and the thalweg elevation for MY1 in the numerator with the difference between
the MY1 bankfull elevation and the MY1 thalweg elevation in the denominator. This same process is then carried out in each successive year.
2 -LTOB Area and Max depth -These are based on the LTOB elevation for each years survey (The same elevation used for the LTOB in the BHR calculation). Areabelow
the LTOB elevation will be used and tracked for each year as above. The difference between the LTOB elevation and the thalweg elevation (same as in the BHR
calculation) will be recroded and tracked above as LTOB max depth.

According to WLS MY1 activities occurred in October 2022 and the report presents the data for MY1. The
Project meets the MY1 success criteria for stream hydrology, stream horizontal and vertical stability,
streambed condition and stability, stream flow, and vegetation. Seven wetland gauges did not meet 12
percent hydrology criteria (noted below), likely due to recently completed construction. Based on these
results, the Project is on a trajectory to meet interim success criteria in Monitoring Year 2 (MY2).
1. I appreciated the greenway photos to ensure encroachment is not becoming an issue. Response:
WLS will continue to provide these photos in future reports.
2. The cross-section photos were great but I would like to see a similar treatment of the culvert on
R-2 giving a view perpendicular to the ones included. Response: Additional photos of the culvert
on R2 with a perpendicular view facing the left bank have been added to the photo stations. These
photos will continue to be taken in future monitoring.
3. Bankfull flow achieved for R-3 and R-5; no bankfull events for R-1 and R-7. Noted. Response: WLS
will continue to monitor for and provide bankfull events in future reports.
4. Wetland hydroperiod (>12% of the growing season; > 8-10% for MY1 and MY2) performance
criteria are not being met in areas of GW-8, 13 and 15 (Wetland 7). Noted. Response: WLS will
continue to monitor all groundwater gauges, and hydroperiods are anticipated to be met as the
project moves further into the monitoring period.
5. Potential wetland development in areas around GW-3 and 4 appears promising. Response: WLS
anticipates continued potential wetland development within these areas.

6. Glad to see that invasive species, while present in limited amounts and not located in any veg
plots, are being identified and dealt with aggressively. Response: WLS will continue to monitor
and treat invasive species as needed onsite.
7. I recommend to include the previous 12 months of monthly rainfall data in the associated graph
and chart. Response: WLS has included the previous 12 months of rainfall data in Appendix D of
the MY2 report.
8. I concur with the IRT request (From June 8, 2022 site notes) that a veg plot should be established
in areas proposed for potential wetland credit. Response from WLS to monitor as early as MY3 is
sufficient at this time. Response: WLS will include a random transect in this area in MY3 and MY5
to document vegetation establishment in this area.
Casey Haywood, USACE Comments
1. Appreciate that comments from the June 10, 2022 IRT site visit were addressed in the report to
include pre-construction gauge data and the addition of a photo points along the greenway and
behind the neighborhood sign. Noted that the two stream problem areas will be stabilized via live
staking and re-matted in MY2. Please continue to monitor these areas and provide photo
documentation in future reports if the problem persists. Response: WLS appreciates that these
changes/additions were noticed, and any future IRT comments will continue to be addressed in
future reports. SPA-1 worsened during MY2 and was repaired by installing a geolift with toe wood
on the slumping bank in October 2023 (applicable permits received). Livestakes were added on SPA-
2 and SPA-3 in May 2023. All stream problem areas will be closely monitored in MY3.
2. There is a significant amount of vegetation in the channel on R1 (XS-18 & XS-21) and R8 (XS-17). Is
the vegetation in the channel Murdannia? If so, it is strongly encouraged to treat early in
monitoring as we have had several other sites that have had difficulty managing and eliminating
this species. Response: The dominant in-channel vegetation is getting better and is not currently
affecting channel function. Vegetation in channel is not Murdannia. WLS will closely monitor the
vegetation within these noted areas and treat in MY3 if necessary.
3. It would be helpful to indicate failing groundwater gauges and/or veg plots on the CCPV for ease
of review in future reports (ie. 7 of 15 groundwater gauges failed but were marked as green on
the map). Response: All failing groundwater gauges and/or vegetation plots will be correctly color-
coded on the CCPV maps. These have been corrected in the MY2 report.
Erin Davis, NCDWR Comments
1. DWR appreciated all the photos. The signage along the greenway looks good. Response: WLS will
continue to include these photos in future reports.
2. Thank you for addressing your invasive species control in detail. Please stay diligent on kudzu
(recommend even coordinating to treat areas adjacent to the project easement if possible). Also,
cattail was not mentioned but was observed during the last IRT site visit. Please treat cattail within

any wetland credit areas. Response: WLS will closely monitor and treat all invasives as needed,
including cattail within wetland credit areas.
3. Please watch the aggradation recorded at XS 9 & XS 10 along R3 upstream of the SPAs. Response:
These cross sections will be closely monitored. In MY2, both have stabilized.
4. DWR reiterates Corps observation/concern with the in-channel aquatic vegetation shown in
photos across multiple reaches, particularly R1 and R8. Please try to identify the dominant aquatic
species and note in the MY2 report. We recommend being proactive early in monitoring to
treat aquatic invasives. Response: The dominant in-channel vegetation in these areas are Carex spp.
The vegetation is not currently affecting channel function, but WLS will closely monitor the
vegetation within these noted areas and treat in MY3 if necessary.
5. Please differentiate between wetland gauges that met or didn’t meet on the CCPV. Wetland
gauges 8, 13 and 15 should be a different color. Response: All failing groundwater gauges and/or
veg plots will be correctly color-coded on the CCPV maps. These have been corrected in the MY2
report.
