Project Summary
1.1 Project Location and Description
Environmental Banc & Exchange, LLC (EBX), a wholly owned subsidiary of Resource Environmental
Solutions (RES), is pleased to provide this As -Built Baseline Monitoring Report for Carraway Bluff
Phase II Mitigation Project (Project) under the approved RES 2022 Phase II Umbrella Mitigation Banking
Instrument (UMBI) that was made between the Bank Sponsor, EBX, and the NC Division of Water
Resources (DWR). This Project is designed to provide riparian buffer credits and nutrient offsets for
unavoidable impacts due to development within the Neuse River Basin, United States Geological Survey
(USGS) 8-digit Cataloguing Unit 03020201 (Meuse 01), excluding Falls Lake Watershed (Figure 1). This
Buffer and Nutrient Offset Mitigation Plan is in accordance with the Consolidated Buffer Mitigation Rule
15A NCAC 02B .0295 and Nutrient Offset Credit Trading Rule 15A NCAC 02B .0703. The Project is
being codeveloped with the Carraway Bluff Buffer Mitigation Project (DWR #2014-0820 V5) that is
contracted with the NC Division of Mitigation Services (DMS).
The Carraway Bluff Phase II Project is within the Neuse River Basin within the 8-digit HUC 03020201,
14-digit HUC 03020201170060 and DWR Sub -basin Number 03-C4-12. The Project is in Wayne County,
approximately five miles south of downtown Goldsboro, off Highway 117. To access the Project from
Goldsboro, head South on US 70 Business and merge onto US-177 South for approximately 4.5 miles.
Then turn left onto Old Mt Olive Highway and drive approximately 1.2 miles. Then turn left onto Genoa
Road, for about ahalf a mile, then turn left onto Robert Avenue (Figure 1). The coordinates are 35.3280007,
-78.010718.
The Carraway Bluff Phase II project consists of a conservation easement that will total approximately 34.01
acres and is being collocated with the Carraway Bluff Buffer Mitigation Project (DMS Project #: 100186,
DWR #: 2C 14-0820 V5). Carraway Bluff Phase II extends the riparian area of the DMS Project along the
Neuse River, Carraway Creek, BHI, BH2, BH4 and adds an additional unnamed stream (BH3). It also
includes additional nutrient area of D4 and additional ditch features (D3, D5, and D6) that drain to Carraway
Creek. Carraway Creek is a USGS-named stream that drains to the Neuse River onsite. Much of the Project
area has been used extensively for agricultural purposes for at least 70 years. Water quality stressors
currently affecting the Project included heavily manipulated/relocated and maintained stream channels,
nutrient loadings from active crop production, and lack of forested riparian buffers.
1.2 Monitoring Protocol and Project Success Criteria
Annual vegetation monitoring and visual assessments will be conducted. Vegetation will be surveyed at
established vegetation plots across the site that are representative of the riparian restoration areas (Figures
2 & 3). Data will be presented each year in annual monitoring reports, including a Current Conditions
Plan View map (Figure 3).
Photos are taken at all vegetation plot origins during each monitoring year. Visual inspections and photos
are taken to ensure that restoration and preservation areas are being maintained and compliant. These
monitoring activities will continue to be done for each monitoring year.
Carraway Bluff Phase II 1 As -Built Baseline Monitoring Report
Mitigation Project July 2023

The measures of vegetative success for the Project will be the survival of at least four native hardwood tree
species, where no one species is greater than 50 percent of the stems, established at a density of at least 260
planted trees per acre at the end of Year 5. Native volunteer species may be included to meet the
performance standards as determined by NC Division of Water Resources. Invasive and noxious species
will be monitored and treated so that none become dominant or alter the desired community structure of
the site.
A visual assessment of the conservation easement will also be performed each year to confine:
• Easement markers are in good condition throughout the site;
• No encroachment has occurred;
• No invasive species in areas where invasive species were treated,
• Diffuse flow is being maintained in the conservation easement areas; and
■ There has not been any cutting, clearing, filling, grading, or similar activities that would
negatively affect the functioning of the buffer.
Component/ Monitoring Maintenance through project close-out
feature
Vegetation Annual Vegetation shall be maintained to ensure the health and vigor of the targeted plant
vegetation community. Routine vegetation maintenance and repair activities may include
monitoring supplemental planting, pruning, mulching, and fertilizing. Exotic invasive plant species
shall be treated by mechanical and/or chemical methods. Any vegeration requiring
herbicide application will be performed in accordance with NC Department of
Agriculture (NCDA) rules and regulations. Vegetation maintenance activities will be
documented and reported in annual monitoring reports. Vegetation maintenance will
continue through the monitoring period.
Invasive and Nuisance Visual Invasive and noxious species will be monitored and treated so that none become
Vegetation Assessment dominant or alter the desired community structure of the Project. Locations of invasive
and nuisance vegetation Aill be maplxd and reported.
Project Boundary Visual Proicct boundaries shall be identificd in the field to ensure a cicar distinction belwcen
Assessment the mitigation project and adjacent properties. Boundaries are marked with signs
identifying the property as a mitigation project and will include the name of the long-
term steward and a contact number. Aoundaries may be identified by fence, marker,
bollard, post, tree -blazing, or other means as allowed by Project conditions and/or
conservation easement. Boundary markers disturbed, damaged, or destroyed will be
repaired and/or replaced on an as -needed basis. Easement monitoring and staking)
signage maintenance will continue in perpetuity as a stewardship activity.
1.3 Pr(n eet Components
This Project generates up to 264,950.939 riparian buffer mitigation credits and 943,416 ft2(49,288.708 lbs.
of Nitrogen) nutrient offset credits within a 34.01-acre conservation easement as depicted in Figure 3.
These are derived from riparian restoration, and preservation. The credits generated will service the Neuse
01 watershed, excluding the Falls Lake Watershed. Also, some of these proposed buffer mitigation credits,
where viable, can be converted to nutrient offset credit in accordance with the Nutrient Offset Credit
Trading Rule, 15A NCAC 02B .0703_ In accordance with the UMBI, any credit conversions must be
calculated using the guidance provided in the Clarified Procedures for Calculating Buffer Mitigation Credits
and Nutrient Offset Credits letter issued by the DWR. The total potential buffer mitigation and nutrient
Carraway Bluff Phase II 2 As -Built Baseline Monitoring Report
Mitigation Project July 2023

offset credits that the Carraway Bluff Phase II Mitigation Project will generate were calculated using the
DWR "Project Credit Table Template (Updated May 2023)" and are presented in Appendix A.
1.4 Riparian Mitigation Approach
The Project- will provide riparian buffer mitigation and nutrient offset through riparian restoration and
preservation activities as defined and described in the Consolidated Buffer Mitigation Rules 15A NCAC.
02B .0295 (n), 15A NCAC 02B .0295 (o)(3) (o)(4) and (o)(5). Nutrient offset credits generated from
riparian restoration activities will comply with the Nutrient Offset Credit Trading Rule 15A NCAC 02B
.0703 and the UMBI. Restoration and nutrient offset activities included the planting of bare root trees. These
restoration activities were carried out from tops of the stream banks or began outside the DMS project
Conservation Easement (-100 feet from Top of Bank of the stream channels) and extend outward to a
maximum of 200 feet perpendicular to the stream channel. Restoration occurred where cropland was
currently present and in the non -forested area. All reaches within the Project include riparian buffer
restoration and/or nutrient offset (Figure 3).
Restoration and Preservation activities also include the permanent protection of the riparian buffer and
adjacent riparian areas from cutting, clearing, filling, grading, and similar activities that would affect the
functioning of the buffer through a conservation easement that have clearly visible easement markers and
signs. Preservation areas are also being treated to control invasive species. No more than 25 percent of the
total area of buffer mitigation was used for preservation credit pursuant to 15A NCAC 0295 (o)(5).
Furthermore, Buffer preservation only generated buffer mitigation credit and is not transferable into
nutrient offset credits.
1.5 Construction and As -Built Conditions
The initial planting of bare root trees occurred on March 15"', 2023. All riparian restoration areas are planted
with bare root tree seedlings on a nine by six-foot spacing to achieve an initial density of approximately
800 trees per acre. Planted areas were ripped and seeded with an herbaceous seed mix to provide rapid
herbaceous cover and promote immediate buffer effectiveness as well as habitat for pollinators and other
wildlife. The seed blend contains both temporary and permanent seed and includes taproot species. The
seed was sown utilizing a broadcast distribution. Planting occurred in all areas proposed for riparian buffer
restoration and meets the performance standards outlined in the Rule 15A NCAC 02B .0295. This includes
treating invasive species and planting of at least four species of native hardwood bare root trees. Mixed-
Mesic Hardwood Forest (Coastal Plain subtype) (Schafale 2012) is the target community type and was used
for all areas within the Project. This tree community composition is highly diverse and is suitable given the
Project's soil and landscape characteristics and will provide water quality and ecological benefits. There
were no changes to the planting plan of bare root species and the planting area. However, densities of
species changed slightly due to availability of some oak species. A list of the planted species can be found
in Appendix B.
The site was constructed in accordance with the Approved Bank Parcel Development Package. Invasives
were treated on March Ist, 2023, construction was completed on March 3rd, 2023, seeding was completed
on March 3rd, 2023, planting/livestaking was completed on March 15th, 2023, and sign installation along
the entire easement was finished on April 14th, 2023. Other activities involved with the Project include
Carraway Bluff Phase II 3 As -Built Baseline Monitoring Report
Mitigation Project July 2023

minor bank stabilization efforts, where culverts were removed. D6 was livestaked and seeded with wetland
species to encourage the development of a linear wetland. As part of the Restoration activities, five culverts
were removed from the Project Area and four culverts were installed outside the easement to allow for
access throughout. It was determined that the most stable approach for the crossing outside the casement at
BH2 was a culvert instead of the timber mat bridge. Seeding and livest"g occurred in the locations where
the existing culverts are removed. Any debris or deer stands on site were removed, with the exception of
one stand that currently has a nesting pair of barn owls.
Additionally, all planting and construction activities were completed within the adjacent DMS project and
have been explained in detail within the DMS Can -away Bluff (2014-0820 V5) As -Built Report submitted
in July 2021 DWR will confirm that these activities were completed during a future site and provide
documentation of its completion in the Task 2 Credit Release. DMS Carraway Bluff (2014-0820 V5)
easement was closed and secured on March 15th, 2023. There were no easement changes of the Carraway
Bluff Phase II Bank Easement between the submittal of the BPDP Approval and the construction of the
site. The conservation easement is marked every 50-100 feet with t-posts and signage (Appendix Q. No
livestock are present onsite; therefore, fencing was not installed.
I.6 Baseline Monitoring Perfnrnzanee
The Carraway Bluff Phase II As -built monitoring activities were completed in March 2023. All as -built
monitoring data is presented below and in the appendices. The Project is on track to meeting interim success
criteria. RES installed 27 permanent vegetation plots on site. Monitoring of the 27 permanent vegetation
plots was completed in March 2023. Vegetation data tables are in Appendix B and associated photos are
in Appendix C. Monitoring Year 0 (MY0) monitoring data indicate that all plots are exceeding the interim
success criteria of 320 planted stems per acre. Planted stem densities ranged from 607 to 931 planted stems
per acre with a mean of 787 planted stems per acre across all plots. A total of 10 species were documented
within the plots. Volunteer species were not noted at baseline monitoring but are expected to establish in
upcoming years. The average tree height observed was 1.2 feet.
Herbaceous vegetation will be monitored as it becomes established throughout the Project. There was no
encroachment observed or similar activities that would negatively affect the functioning of the buffer.
Additionally, initial invasive species treatment was administered in March 2023.
Supplemental planting along the top of bank of BH1, BH2, and on the previous road entrance area near
BH3 was completed on May 30"' and June 22nd. Additional livestaking inside and along D5 and D6 was
completed on June 22"d. To maintain diffuse flow throughout the conservation easement three engineered
sediment packs (ESP) were installed on the erosional features on BH2, BH3, and Carraway Creek. Coir
mat logs and additional planting will also be implemented around the erosional features to promote diffuse
flow. The engineered sediment packs were completed on June 151h and 23`d. Annual photos of the ESP
installations and surrounding areas will be included in annual monitoring reports. If the ESP's become
unstable or down cutting is observed, maintenance to the ESP's will occur. The ESP's and surrounding
areas will be monitored to see if seeding is becoming established and will reseed if necessary. Additional
easement signage was added around the old road on May 30th. Associated photos are included in Appendix
C.

Mitigation Project July 2023

2 Methods
Annual vegetation monitoring and visual assessments will be conducted. Riparian buffer vegetation
monitoring is based on the "Carolina Vegetation Survey -Ecosystem Enhancement Program Protocol for
Recording Vegetation: Level 1-2 Plot Sampling Only Version 4.2" (Lee et al., 2006). Monitoring plots were
installed a minimum of 100 meters squared in size and cover at least two percent of the planted mitigation
area. These plots were randomly placed throughout the planted riparian buffer mitigation area (32.59 acres)
and are representative of the riparian restoration conditions. The following data is recorded for all trees in
the plots: species, height, planting date (or volunteer), and grid location. All stems in plots are flagged with
flagging tape. In the field, the four corners of each plot were permanently marked with PVC at the origin
and metal conduit at the other corners. There are 27 fixed vegetation monitoring plots (Figure 3). These
plots are being monitored in conjunction with plots 1-14 of the Carraway Bluff DMS project site.
