RE: DWR #2019-1692v4 / Raleigh Farm Phase A Nutrient Offset Site and Buffer Mitigation Bank
ASBUILT SUBMITTAL
Ms. Merritt,
This letter is to notify DEQ of submittal of the Raleigh Farm Phase A AsBuilt Report submittal. As you are
aware the site was planted in early 2022 prior to recording of the conservation easement.
The conservation easement was recorded August 26, 2023 and the land application permit no.
WQ0001730 was modified on December 14, 2023 to exclude the conservation easement areas as
required in section 3.4 of the related BPDP and we are therefore now able to submit
the AsBuilt Report that follows as the third attachment to this cover letter.
After planting, installation of monitoring plots, and marking of the anticipated conservation easement
corners, RS submitted an AsBuilt Memo to DWR in June 2022, after which DWR performed an AsBuilt
walkthrough and provided notes via email to Restoration Systems. In response to those notes RS
implemented adaptive management activities between June of 2022 and June of 2023 to address areas
of concern. Those actions are summarized in the AMP memo attached to this cover letter.
In addition to the details provided in the AMP many of the tpost conservation easement corners
have been further identified with tall PVC pipe to make corner identification easier in the field. RS has
open communication with City of Raleigh to actively manage encroachments as the easement
area is established and will document those in the submittal of the MY1 and MY2 reports.
The Asbuilt report contains tree counts performed after planting in February/March of 2022. RS plans
to submit monitoring reports for MY1 2022 and MY3 2023 immediately after approval of this AsBuilt
report.
Prior to recording the conservation easement, City of Raleigh determined to exclude areas included in
the BPDP proposed easement area as they were likely to conflict with future land use at the Neuse
River Resource Recovery Facility. Those changes are highlighted on the two maps immediately
following this cover letter.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at 512.230.0424.
Sincerely,
Barrett Jenkins

RE: DWR #2019-1692v4 / Raleigh Farm Phase A Nutrient Offset Site and Buffer Mitigation Bank
Parcel/ Completion of Adaptive Management Plan
Ms. Merritt,
This letter is to notify DEQ of completing the Adaptive Management Plan (AMP) for the Raleigh Farm
Phase A Nutrient Offset Site and Buffer Mitigation Bank Parcel (DWR #2020-1225v2) submitted in
December 2022. During the as-built site visit on July 19, 2022, multiple items requiring corrective action
were identified, including dense/tall herbaceous vegetation, stem densities within some of the vegetation
plots were low, no conservation easement placards on easement boundaries, and areas of encroachment
in the easement from the tenant farmer.
On November 9, 2022, new T-posts were added to Katie Merritt’s highlighted areas. A map is attached
highlighting action items, and photos of the work described are provided below. City of Raleigh Farm
management was notified of the encroachments and t post were added to identify the areas, which are
shown on the attached figure.
Restoration Systems (RS) observed dieback of planted hardwood species across certain areas of the Site
during the monitoring season of Yr. 1, 2022. The as-built data indicated six hundred and forty-two (642)
stems/acre. However, the Yr. 1 vegetation survey indicated an average of three hundred and ninety-nine
(399)stems per acre across the Site, which exceeds requirements by 10%. There was a two hundred and
forty-three (243) stems/acre reduction between Yr. 0 and Yr.1. Tree mortality occurred throughout the
Site. Multiple variables, including drought and dense herbaceous vegetation, are the likely lead causes for
the high mortality in planted stems.
On January 5, 2023, RS implemented a targeted replant of six thousand eight hundred (6,800) bare roots
across roughly twenty-two (+/-22) acres of the easement (Figure 1). Planting zones and densities were
based on Yr. 1 monitoring data. The species were picked from the original planting list with minor
modifications based on the species’ success.
Planted species were hand mixed into bundles by a professional to ensure proper diversity of planted
material throughout the replanted areas. Two RS Project Managers were onsite to guarantee that the
overall quality of the planting would exceed success criteria requirements. Bare roots were planted and
flagged within the fixed vegetation monitoring plots, which will be recorded in the Yr. 2, 2023, Monitoring
Report.

As-built & Baseline Monitoring Report – August 2023
1.0 Introduction
Restoration Systems (Sponsor) is pleased to provide the North Carolina Division of Water Resources (NC
DWR) this As-built & Baseline Monitoring Report for the Raleigh Farm (Phase A) Bank Parcel (Parcel). As
agreed upon in the Raleigh Farm Riparian Buffer and Nutrient Offset Umbrella Mitigation Banking
Instrument (MBI) and Raleigh Farm Bank Parcel Development Packaged (BPDP), made and entered into
on September 24, 2021 by Restoration Systems, LLC, acting as Bank Sponsor (Sponsor), and the North
Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ), Division of Water Resources (DWR). This
document details the riparian area restoration activities, monitoring efforts, and the final mitigation
potential of the Parcel.

Measuring 77.07 acres, the Parcel is designed to provide mitigation credits for unavoidable impacts due
to development within the Neuse River Basin. NCDWR representatives conducted an onsite determination
for parcel applicability and suitability of Site Features on June 2-3, 2020. A Site Viability letter for Buffer &
Nutrient Offset was provided by the Division on August 17, 2020 and September 24, 2020 (Appendix C).

Restoration construction activities involved the removal of existing farm infrastructure, including
dilapidated buildings/equipment and existing compacted earthen roads (farm paths).

RS began preparation for restoration of the riparian buffer and planted the Parcel in February of 2022.
Riparian buffer restoration activities included ripping/bedding of the parcel with a narrow set plow, bare-
root planting, and broadcast application of a permanent seed mix. Between February 21 and February 24,
2022, Axiom Environmental installed thirty-seven (37) Carolina Vegetation Survey (CVS) monitoring plots
and collected as-built data (Appendix B).

The long-term steward, North Carolina Wildlife Habitat Foundation (NCWHF) was granted a
Conservation Easement by the City of Raleigh, North Carolina on July 12, 2023. The conservation
easement was recorded at the Wake County Register of Deeds on July 26th, 2023; Book No. 019393,
Page 00672 - 00696 (Appendix D).

2.0 Parcel Location
The Parcel is located approximately three miles northwest of Clayton, five miles east of Garner, and seven
miles southeast of Raleigh in Wake County, NC. The Parcel is within the Neuse River Basin 14-digit USGS
Cataloging Unit 03020201110030 of the Middle Atlantic Coastal Plain (North Carolina Division of Water
Quality [NCDWQ] Sub-basin Number 03-03-05) (Figure 1, Appendix A).

Raleigh Farm Phase A Nutrient Offset and Buffer Mitigation Bank Parcel Page 2
As-built & Baseline Monitoring Report – August 2023
2.1 Parcel Background
The Parcel encompasses 77.07 acres of land over two tracts of historical agricultural fields. Prior to Parcel
development, land use is described as a mixture of managed fields for biosolid applications from the City's
NRRRF, row crop agriculture, and unmanaged hardwood forests. Site Features are devoid of woody
vegetation outside of forested areas due to historic and agricultural practices. Managed features are
maintained (mowed/brush hogged) to keep woody vegetation from establishing.

The Parcel is comprised of two separate tracts situated just south of the Neuse River. Currently, a 200-
foot Duke Power 500 KV Overhead Transmission Line is located outside of the Site’s easements. Parcel
tracts are subject to a future Duke Energy natural gas line, PNG Line 142. Construction and maintenance
of the PNG Line 142 will not affect the project or its protected resources. Additionally, Dominion Energy’s
T-030 Gas Pipeline Extension Project will maintain a 50-foot utility easement over Project Parcels
associated with Phase A. The new easement abuts and runs parallel to Duke Power’s 200-foot overhead
transmission line easement. Site design avoided all temporary and permanent easements associated with
the T-030 Gas Pipeline, and the easements are located outside the T-030 Gas Pipeline easement
(permanent and temporary).

2.2 Parcel Objectives
The primary goals associated with the restoration of riparian areas within the Bank Parcel focused on
improving water quality, enhancing flood attenuation, and restoring wildlife habitat. These goals were
achieved through the restoration and preservation of forested riparian areas adjacent to stream channels,
in-line ponds, and ephemeral channels. Goals were accomplished by the following.

1. Removing nonpoint sources of pollution associated with agricultural production, including:
a. Ceasing the broadcast application of class B biosolids, fertilizer, pesticides, and other
agricultural materials into and adjacent to Parcel Features.
b. Providing a restored buffer to filter runoff from adjacent lands.
2. Reducing sedimentation within onsite and downstream receiving waters by reducing bank
erosion, vegetation maintenance, and agricultural land disturbances by ceasing agricultural and
current land use activities.
3. Promoting floodwater attenuation by increasing frictional resistance of floodwaters crossing
Parcel floodplains.
4. Improving aquatic habitat by enhancing stream bed shading and natural detritus input.
5. Providing a terrestrial wildlife corridor and refuge in an area extensively developed for agricultural
production.
6. Restoring and re-establishing natural community structure, habitat diversity, and functional
continuity.
7. Protecting the Parcel’s riparian buffer functions and values in perpetuity.

As-built & Baseline Monitoring Report – August 2023
3.0 Restoration Activities
To achieve the objectives above, a restoration plan including the following components was completed in
February of 2022.

Primary components of the Restoration Plan included the following.
1. Removal of dilapidated/ abandoned agricultural infrastructure within forested areas where
feasible,
2. Removal of existing compacted earth roads associated with agricultural use,
3. Parcel-wide soil preparation & herbaceous vegetation treatment,
4. Riparian area restoration (replanting) extending from the top of bank (TOB) out 200’ where
applicable and,
5. Parcel protection in perpetuity through a conservation easement.

Tables A & B detail the restoration and protection activities. An outline of restoration activities and
their completion dates is provided in the Table 2 (Appendix A).

Table A – Restoration Plan Activities
Restoration
Plan Activity Phase Specific Actions
Herbaceous
Treatment
The City, which actively self -manages the farm operations, treated Bermuda and
fescue grasses within the Parcel ahead of planting efforts. Treatment consisted of a
broadcast application using Roundup Custom (Glyphosate) at a rate of 3% and a
surfactant of AgriDex at a rate of 1%, per acre, mixed with water.
Removal of
Existing
Infrastructure
- Removal of existing farm paths within the proposed easements by deep ripping to
break soil compaction associated with equipment and vehicle use. NRRRF will
establish new roads dependent on future use and need outside of the Site’s
proposed easements.
- Removal of rock debris associated with a historic farm path across Feature 2B, and
stabilization of the channel with matting, temporary/permanent seeding*, and live
-stake planting.
- Removal of large debris from the easement as is feasible and without damaging
the existing riparian buffer (Main Tributary 2).
Riparian
Restoration
Within the Site' s proposed conservation easements:
- Treatment of Bermuda and fescue grass species within active pasture areas (see
Herbaceous Treatment note above).
- Site-wide discing of agricultural and pasture areas ahead of planting — discing
occurred parallel to the Site Features, promoting floodwater attenuation by
increasing frictional resistance of floodwaters crossing Parcel floodplains.
- Establishment of a native herbaceous community via site -specific seed mix (see
Planting List – Table D)
- Establishment of a native hardwood forest via the planting of bare -root saplings
from the top of bank out a maximum of 200' along Parcel Features —Planting List
– Table C

Table B – Summary Protection Activities
Parcel
protection
(77.07 acres)
1.) The long-term steward, North Carolina Wildlife Habitat Foundation (NCWHF)
was granted a Conservation Easement by the City of Raleigh, North Carolina on
July 12, 2023. The conservation easement was recorded at the Wake County
Register of Deeds on July 26th, 2023; Book No. 019393, Page 00672 - 00696
(Appendix D).
2.) RS marked the easement at every corner with an iron, CE cap, and corner t-
post. Additionally, easement posts were placed every 200-feet along the Parcel
boundaries and taller PVC pipes were placed on top of many of the tpost to
improve visibility.
3.1 Construction Activities
Three primary construction activities occurred onsite including 1) removal of existing, earthen farm paths
within the proposed easements by deep ripping with agricultural equipment to break up soil compaction
associated with historic farm equipment and vehicle use; 2) removal of rock debris associated with a
historic farm path that crosses Feature 2B, and stabilization of the channel with matting, temporary/
permanent seeding, and live-stake planting; and 3) Removal of reinforced concrete pipes & other debris
located within the proposed easement (as feasible) without damaging existing forest/vegetation
(Appendix A – As-built Photos).
3.2 Riparian Area Restoration Activities
Restoration of the riparian area allows for recolonization and expansion of characteristic species across
the landscape. The riparian areas were restored according to the Consolidated Buffer Mitigation Rule
15A NCAC 02B .0295. The planting plan for the riparian restoration area included planting 31,600 native
bare-root hardwood saplings across 46.51 acres at a Parcel density of +/- 600 stems per acre and live
stakes for stream bank stabilization where necessary. Community associations utilized in the proposed
planting plan include Schafale and Weakley’s (2012) Mesic Mixed Hardwood Forest (Piedmont Subtype)
and Piedmont Bottomland Hardwoods. The planted species composition is intentionally diverse and while
based on these communities, also accounted for local observations and nursery availability.
All species were selected based on their ability for sediment stabilization, rapid growth rate, suitability to
specific soil types, and Parcel conditions. Tree species were mixed thoroughly before planting to provide
a diverse and random plant across the Site. Planting density is set to ensure sufficient diversity and density
of planted stems outlined in Rule 15A NCAC 02B.0295 of 260 trees per acre at the end of five years. No

3.3 Parcel Protection
The long-term steward, North Carolina Wildlife Habitat Foundation (NCWHF) was granted a
Conservation Easement by the City of Raleigh, North Carolina on July 12, 2023. The conservation
easement was recorded at the Wake County Register of Deeds on July 26th, 2023; Book No. 019393,
Page 00672 - 00696 (Appendix D). Easement corners were marked with tposts, signs, and in some cased
tall PVC pipes.

As-built & Baseline Monitoring Report – August 2023
4.0 Mitigation Potential
DWR has determined the nitrogen abatement of restored riparian areas to be 2,273.02 lbs. per acre as
agreed to in the Raleigh Farm MBI. Riparian buffer credits were measured to the nearest whole square
foot. Mitigation potential for each Project Phase, is detailed below.
The Parcel restored 45.027 acres and preserved 22.856 acres of riparian area within a 77.07-acre Parcel.
The Parcel permanently protects an additional 9.187 acres consisting of areas beyond 200-ft from Site
Features, the footprint of Site Features, and non-credited access/maintenance areas within the
conservation easement that do not generate credit.
Table 1 (Appendix A) outlines the components and mitigation credits to be generated within the Parcel.
The generated Neuse River Riparian Buffer Credits (RBC) and Nutrient Offset Credit (NOC, nitrogen) on
restored riparian areas were measured from the top of bank out perpendicularly 200-feet on Parcel
Features (streams, ephemeral channels, and an in-line pond). Riparian buffer restoration credits can be
converted and transferred to NOC upon approval from DWR. However, conversions of NOC from widths
101'- 200' (measured from top of bank) to RBC will not occur. The Sponsor must request and receive
written approval of the conversion and transfer of any mitigation credits from DWR prior to adding or
removing credits from the ledgers.
The Sponsor will maintain three individual ledgers, one to account for riparian buffer restoration credits,
one to account for riparian buffer preservation credits, and one to account for NOC. All credit assets shall
be accurately depicted on these credit ledgers (Table 1, Appendix A)
5.0 Monitoring Protocol & Success Criteria
5.1 Monitoring Protocol
Restoration monitoring procedures for vegetation at each Phase will monitor plant survival and species
diversity. Quantitative sampling will include thirty-seven (37) permanent 10 x 10-meter vegetation plots
as outlined in the CVS Level 1-2 Protocol for Recording Vegetation, Version 4.2 (Lee et al. 2008) and will
occur no earlier than Fall of each year (Figures 2A-B, Appendix A). Vegetation plot placement will
adequately represent riparian buffer credit and nutrient offset credit areas. A reference photo will be
taken from the origin point of each plot. All planted stems in the plots will be marked with flagging tape
and recorded. Data collected will include species, height, planting type (planted stem and/or volunteer).
Total and planted stem density by plot and species will be reported during monitoring years 0-5 (Table 5,
Appendix B). Individual and average stem height data will be reported during monitoring years 3-5.
Monitoring of the restoration efforts will be performed for five years or until success criteria are fulfilled.
Restoration Systems shall submit to NCDWR annual monitoring reports no later than December 31st of
each year. Each report will document the success of the vegetation and any maintenance, supplemental
planting, or encroachment within the easement areas. Success criteria within the buffer will be based on
the survival of planted species at a density of 260 stems per acre after five years of monitoring.
The first annual monitoring activities were completed at the end of the first growing season in 2022, at
least six months after planting was completed.
Raleigh Farm Phase A Nutrient Offset and Buffer Mitigation Bank Parcel Page 7
As-built & Baseline Monitoring Report – August 2023
5.2 Parcel Maintenance
A remedial action plan will be developed and implemented with the approval of DWR in the event the
Parcel or a specific component of the Parcel fails to achieve success criteria as outlined above. Other
vegetation maintenance and repair activities may include pruning, mulching, and fertilizing. If exotic
invasive plant species require treatment, such species will be controlled by mechanical (physical removal
with the use of a chainsaw) and/ or chemical methods (aquatic approved herbicide) in accordance with
North Carolina Department of Agriculture (NCDA) rules and regulations.
If mowing is deemed necessary by the Sponsor during the monitoring period, the Sponsor must receive
approval from DWR prior to conducting any mowing activities within Neuse Buffer Zones 1 and 2 to ensure
that no buffer violations have occurred.
5.3 Long Term Management Plan
The conservation easement will preserve all areas and prohibit all use of the property inconsistent with
its use as a nutrient offset and riparian buffer mitigation property, including any activity that would
materially alter the biological integrity of the Site/ Parcel. The conservation easement and its interests
have been assigned to NCWHF in perpetuity, they are a qualified holder under NC General Statute ("GS")
121-34 et seq. and 170(h) of the Internal Revenue Code. The holder shall be a land trust or stewardship
program that is accredited by the Land Trust Accreditation Commission and/ or has been approved by
DWR. A land trust must be certified under 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
6.0 Financial Assurance
In accordance with the UMBI RS waived the obligation to secure a construction bond and will be able to
secure monitoring bonds upon approval of this As Built Report.
Monitoring bonds shall be renewed with confirmation of renewal provided to DWR with each annual
monitoring report. DWR reserves the right to alter the credit release schedule if monitoring reports are
submitted without proof of bond renewals.

Subject: On -Site Determination for Applicability to the Neuse Buffer Rules 15A NCAC 02B .0714
Project Name: Raleigh Farm Site Phase A
Address: 8599 Old Baucom Rd. (SR 2542), Raleigh, NC 27610
Location: 35.702396, -78.496346 (south of the road)
Site Inspection Date: 6/2/20 and 6/3/20
Dear Mr. Jenkins:
On June 2 and 3, 2020, Shelton Sullivan of the Division of Water Resources (DWR) conducted an on -site
review of features located on the subject property at the request of Barrett Jenkins with Restoration
Systems, LLC to determine the applicability to the Neuse Riparian Area Protection Rules, Title 15A North
Carolina Administrative Code 02B .0714.
The enclosed map(s) depict the feature(s) evaluated and this information is also summarized in the table
below. Streams were evaluated for being ephemeral, at least intermittent, and subjectivity to the Neuse
Riparian Area Protection Rules. Streams that are considered "Subject" have been located on the most
recently published NRCS Soil Survey of Wake County and/or the most recent copy of the USGS
Topographic (at 1:24,000 scale) map(s), have been located on the ground at the site, and possess
characteristics that qualify them to be at least intermittent streams. Features that are considered "Not
Subject" have been determined to not be at least intermittent, not present on the property, or not
depicted on the required maps.
This determination only addresses the applicability to the buffer rules and does not approve any activity
within buffers or within waters of the state. There may be other streams or features located on the
property that appear or do not appear on the maps referenced above. Any of the features on the site
may be considered jurisdictional according to the US Army Corps of Engineers and subject to the Clean
Water Act.
The following table addresses the features observed and rated during the DWR site visit:

Re: Site Viability for Buffer Mitigation & Nutrient Offset — Raleigh Farm Phase A Site
Near 8599 Old Baucom Rd (SR 2542), Raleigh, NC 27610
Lat., Long. 35.702396, -78.496346 (south of road)
Neuse 03020201
Dear Mr. Jenkins,
On February 11, 2020, Katie Merritt, with the Division of Water Resources (DWR), received a
request from you on behalf of Restoration Systems, LLC (RS) for a site visit near the above -
referenced site in the Neuse River Basin within the 8-digit Hydrologic Unit Code 03020201. The site
visit was to determine the potential for riparian buffer mitigation and nutrient offset within a
proposed Easement Boundary, which is more accurately show n in the attached map labeled
CORPUD-Site Features Phase A" prepared by RS and edited by DWR. On June 2, 2020 and June
3, 2020, Ms. Merritt performed site assessments of the subject site and identified the following site
constraints:
UTILITIES: Gas lines are being proposed on parts of the site where streams are located.
Existing powerline easements are also present. Specific locations and associated
easements of gas lines were unknown at the time of the DWR site visit, but the attached
CORP U figure details where the proposed and temporary easements 1,1. ill be located.
PERMITS: State. Federal and/or Local permits may be associated with this property.
Wetland delineation flagging and other stream call determinations were observed on the
site.
EXISTING INFRASTRUCTURE: The City of Raleigh owns the property on the site
and has used the land for applying biosolids associated with the Neuse River Resource
Recovery Facility (NRRRF). Existing underground and above ground infrastructure is
present for purposes of irrigating the property. The City of Raleigh Public Utilities
Department (CORPUD) manages the property. Existing dirt paths, culverted crossings,
deeded access roads and greenways are present throughout and are adjacent to ditches
and stream onsite where mitigation would be proposed. Some Groundwater Monitoring
Wells were located onsite, but their locations are not depicted on any maps attached to
this correspondence. All existing infrastructure within the proposed conservation
easement shall be delineated and included as parr of the site's restoration plan along with
specific details on management and maintenance and what will be included or excluded.
o Application of bio-solids will not be permitted within a conservation easement.

o Disruption in connectivity between top of bank and adjacent riparian areas will
not be permitted within a conservation easement.
Monitoring wells must remain fully functional and shall be allowed to be
maintained and accessed as needed.
BMP: A constructed wetland is present onsite adjacent to Pond 2 and shall not be
included in planting efforts or as creditable areas for mitigation or nutrient offset.
Ms. Merritt's evaluation of the features onsite and their associated mitigation determination for the
riparian areas are provided in the table below. This evaluation was made from Top of Bank (TOB)

area of the mitigation site on ephemeral channels shall comprise no more than 25 percent (25%) of the total area of butter mitigation per
15A NCAC 0213.0295 (o)(7). Determinations
provided in the table above were made using a proposed easement boundary shoeing proposed
mitigation areas shown in Figure 1, Figure 2 and the CDRPUD map. Maps representing the proposal
for the Site are attached to this letter and are initialed by Ms. Merritt on September 24, 2020. Substantial
changes to the proposed easement boundary as well as site constraints identified on page 1 of
this letter could affect the Sites potential to generate buffer and nutrient offset credits. This
letter does not constitute an approval of this Site to generate buffer and nutrient offset credits. Pursuant
to 15A NCAC 02B .0295, a mitigation proposal and a mitigation plan shall be submitted to DWR
for written approval prior to conducting any mitigation activities in riparian areas and/or surface waters
for buffer mitigation credit. Pursuant to 15A NCAC 02B .0703, a proposal regarding a proposed nutrient
load -reducing measure for nutrient offset credit shall be submitted to DWR for approval prior to
any mitigation activities in riparian areas and/or surface waters. All
vegetative plantings, performance criteria and other mitigation requirements for riparian restoration, enhancement
and preservation must follow the requirements in 15A NCAC 02B .0295 to be eligible for buffer
and/or nutrient offset mitigation credits. For any areas depicted as not being viable for nutrient offset
credit above, one could propose a different measure, along with supporting calculations and sufficient
detail to support estimates of load reduction, for review by the DWR to determine viability for
nutrient offset in accordance with 15A NCAC 02B .0703.
