1 INTRODUCTION
On behalf of The Chemours Company, FC LLC, (Chemours), Geosyntec Consultants of NC, P.C.,
(Geosyntec) conducted the 2023 Year-1 annual post -construction wetland and streams monitoring
assessments on a portion of Chemours' Fayetteville Works property following installation of the
barrier wall. Specifically, the assessment was conducted on a 137.6-acre portion of Chemours
property in Bladen and Cumberland Counties, North Carolina (Wetlands Investigation Area). A
field wetlands and waterbodies delineation of the Wetlands Investigation Area was previously
conducted by Geosyntec in September 2020, followed by a baseline monitoring assessment
conducted in October 2022 prior to the completion of a groundwater barrier wall and operation of
extraction wells. A baseline monitoring report was submitted in January 2023, in accordance with
the Wetland Monitoring Plan Addendum approved by the United States Army Corps of Engineers
(USACE) and North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ) in
September 2022. The 2023 Year-1 monitoring assessment is described herein.
The Wetlands Investigation Area is located in southern Cumberland and northern Bladen Counties,
approximately 10 miles south of the town of Fayetteville (Figure 1), wholly within the Chemours
Fayetteville Works Site (Site) property. The Wetlands Investigation Area is bound to the north by
Willis Creek to the east by the Cape Fear River, to the west by Chemours' Fayetteville Works
facility, and on the south by Glengerry Road/Bill Hall Road. Current land use includes woodlands,
industrial facilities, on -going remediation projects, and access roads. Since the 2020 wetland
delineation effort an area of forest has been cleared for the barrier wall, barrier wall road, and
construction area directly west of the Wetlands Investigation Area. The cleared area supports
movement of heavy equipment and vehicular traffic, and includes the construction of groundwater
monitoring wells, in ground utilities, and regrading of soil. The barrier wall installation began in
December 2022 and was completed in June 2023.
The 137.6-acre Wetlands Investigation Area (Figure 2) is composed of mixed hardwood/pine
forest habitat, monitoring wells, a river intake water lift station, and several access roads. Forested
habitat within the investigation area is primarily mid- to late successional which appears to have
naturally regenerated on the Wetlands Investigation Area following historic logging activities.
Delineation of the areas shown in Figures 2 — 3 was completed in September 14 to 17, 2020'. The
ordinary high water mark was not delineated on the eastern shore of the Cape fear river and the
western bank was delineated to the lateral extent of Federal jurisdiction for Waters of U.S.
This annual monitoring assessment was conducted to assess potential changes in wetlands and
streams in the vicinity of the barrier wall project. Data collected will provide for future evaluation
of potential wetland and stream impacts, should the implementation of the barrier wall result in
unanticipated negative hydrologic modifications to the wetlands and streams identified in the

September 2020 wetland delineation. A determination of potential impacts will be made after
completion of the 5 year monitoring assessment, in 2027 with a re -delineation of the Wetlands
Investigation Area. The assessment focused on a detailed characterization of the wetlands and
streams previously identified in the Project Area by Geosyntec.
Monitoring events will continue to be conducted for 4 years, a total of 5 years following
implementation of the barrier wall, consistent with the permit modification request submitted to
the USACE by GEOServices, LLC on February 9, 2022 and the addendum to NCDEQ revised on
September 15, 2022. If the performance standards defined below are met after the fifth year in
2027, Chemours will coordinate with the USACE and request to be released from further
monitoring requirements. Post -construction monitoring will focus on changes (if any) in hydrology
and its effects to the wetland and stream habitats within the Wetlands Investigation Area while
also assessing the areal extent of the wetlands and overall functionality of the wetland habitat.
1.1 Performance Standards
The performance standards for this monitoring plan are as follows as prescribed in coordination
from the USACE received in September 2022:
No non -wetland determinations at assigned wetland monitoring point during the
monitoring period. Specifically, the USACE Routine Wetland Data Forms collected at
each wetland monitoring point will be required to satisfy the three wetland parameters
(hydrophytic vegetation, wetland hydrology, and hydric soils).
2. Maintain an average areal extent of 90 percent (%) of the delineated wetland
boundaries, as tabulated by acres unit measurement, following 5 years of monitoring.
Groundwater gauge data shall indicate groundwater within 12 inches (1 feet [ft]) of soil
surface to meet the USACE primary hydrology indicator for high water table for at
least 5% hydroperiod (12.15 consecutive days) each year during the growing season.
There are multiple criteria that can be used to determine the presence of wetland. While the specific
indicators may change from year to year, as long as wetland hydrology, hydric vegetation, and
hydric soils are present, the area is still considered a wetland. In the upcoming monitoring years,
per the monitoring plan, data related to the above performance standards will be collected. These
data will help inform the evaluation of wetland conditions. In 2027 a re -delineation will be
conducted to determine wetland boundary changes, if any.
As it relates to wetland hydrology and performance Standard 93, there are multiple indicators of
wetland hydrology and not all are required to be present. For a determination of wetland hydrology
to exist either one of the seventeen possible primary indicators (high water table, saturation, water
marks on trees, drift deposits, algal mat or crust, etc.) or two of the eleven possible secondary
indicators (surface soil cracks, drainage patterns, moss trim lines, crawfish burrows, FAC neutral
test, etc.) must be present.

Since the groundwater gages were installed along the edges of the wetland boundary during the
barrier wall and groundwater extraction remedy installation there is no prior data to evaluate if
performance Standard 93 was ever met at these locations prior to the barrier wall installation.
These data are useful in informing the understanding of hydrology at the site, but may not be
suitable for making a final determination of impact.

2 DESKTOP REVIEW
A desktop review was conducted to compile reference materials on climatic and hydraulic
conditions at the Wetlands Investigation Area in coordination with the monitoring event, as
climatic events (droughts, floods, etc.) can often impact qualitative wetland characteristics. Data
from the National Weather Service's Fayetteville Area, NC climate station located approximately
10 miles north of the project area, U.S. Geologic Survey (USGS) drought monitor, the nearest
USGS river gauge for the Cape Fear River at the W.O. Huske Dam (Station ID 02105500)
(Appendix C), the USACE's Antecedent Precipitation Tool (APT) (Appendix D), and available
groundwater wells were assessed prior to the 2023 field efforts.
Stream surveys for the semi-annual monitoring period were conducted during the beginning of the
growing season on May 8 and 9, 2023. The 2023 Year-1 annual monitoring field surveys were
conducted September 11-13, 2023 during a period in which the region had received below normal
rainfall amounts for the month and year, summarized in Table 1 below using data from the
National Weather Service Fayetteville Area, North Carolina Climate Station (Cooperative
Observer Program [COOP] Site 313017). The rainfall events prior to the field surveys recorded
0.19 and 0.33 on September 9 and 10, respectively. Considering the slight amount of recent rainfall
but lower than normal total rainfall recorded for the year and month to date periods, Geosyntec
delineators observed surface hydrology to be normal with no abnormal stormwater influences
affecting typical surface hydrology. No high-water or flooding conditions were observed within
the Cape Fear River or its tributaries. A review of regional drought conditions from the website
www.droughtmonitor.gov indicated no drought conditions existed for the regional area for the
week of September 12, 2023.
Table I Rainfall at Fayetteville Area Weather Station
Furthermore, based on the results of the climate analysis using the APT (Deter, USACE v.1.0.13)
the calculated output for the project area was experiencing "normal conditions - 13" value for
September 12, 2023 with the graphic indicating the 30-day Rolling Total was located within the
30-year normal range (see attached graphic in Appendix D). Site -specific hydrology conditions
for each wetland are discussed in further detail on each wetland data form (Appendix A).
Five of the groundwater wells previously installed by Chemours exist within or directly adjacent
to delineated wetlands and were used for the desktop review. Depths to groundwater were not
measured during annual monitoring, but are measured by Geosyntec quarterly for other projects.
The groundwater level readings at the dates closest to spring and fall surveys were used to inform
understanding of groundwater within the monitoring area. The closest well readings to the spring
monitoring period were on either May 8 or 23, and July 5 or September 21 for the Fall monitoring
period. Groundwater elevation at these wells is shown below in Table 2. Groundwater levels were

recorded quarterly in 2023 and were the closest records in proximity to the wetlands (Table 2).
Relative to baseline conditions established in 2022, groundwater elevations were below the
previously recorded baseline values at three wells (LTW-05, PIW-41), and LIW-8D) and at similar
groundwater elevations at two wells (LTW-01 and PIW-3D) during the 2023 monitoring periods.
The locations of these wells are shown in Figure 3.

The Cape Fear River at W.O. Huske Lock measured between 29-30 ft (NAVD882) during the time
of Fall 2023 surveys, 8-9 ft below flood stage. The most recent high-water crests were 41.24 ft,
47.32 ft, 39.17 ft, 38.71 ft, and 47.27 ft all between January and March 2021. The National
Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) data at the W.O. Huske Lock states minor
flood stage begins at 37.97 ft and that the adjacent lowlands begin to flood at 40.97 ft. During the
field event the river was 9 ft below flood stage and 12 ft below where "Flood waters will affect
lowlands" as defined by the NOAA3, and therefore at least 11 ft lower in elevation than the survey
area. Based on these values, the Cape Fear River water levels did not appear to be influencing
groundwater levels at the time of measurement and therefore the levels reflected by the on -site
wells are interpreted to be reflective of normal conditions. USGS gauge height for the Cape Fear
River at W.O. Huske Lock are documented in the exhibit below. W. O. Huske Lock and Dam
levels are not reported for the Spring field event as only streams were monitored.

3 WETLAND MONITORING METHODOLOGY
The Year-1 annual monitoring event for wetlands was conducted by two experienced wetland
biologists, that included a certified Professional Wetland Scientist and a Certified Wildlife
Biologist, from Geosyntec on September 11-13, 2023. The event involved a quantitative
assessment using the USACE Routine Wetland Data Form in accordance with the "2010 Regional
Supplement to the Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual: Atlantic and Gulf Coastal
Plain Region — Version 2.0" at each monitoring point and a visual evaluation of the physiognomy
state of the wetland and its surface hydrology. In addition, the Wetlands Investigation Area was
surveyed for indications of potential negative wetland plant stressors (e.g., lack of growth/vigor,
mortality, upland/pioneer plant competition) potentially unrelated to natural climatic or
storm -related damage. Additionally, North Carolina Wetland Assessment Method (NCWAM)
forms, Division of Water Resources (DWR) Stream Identification Forms, and ground water (GW)
gage data were utilized to supplement the monitoring analysis. A global positioning system (GPS)
receiver capable of submeter accuracy was used for navigating to the wetland/upland data points
and along the perimeter of the wetland boundaries. The location of each monitoring point is
identified in Figure 2.
Twenty-two locations, corresponding with the existing USACE Wetland Routine Data Form plots
utilized for the 2022 baseline monitoring (16 wetland, 6 upland), were revisited.
Photographs were taken at each monitoring plot in each cardinal direction, along with a photo of
the soil profile. Baseline USACE datasheets were evaluated against conditions observed during
the Year-1 annual monitoring data collection effort, any changes were recorded. The results are
further discussed in Section 4.2.1.
NCWAM forms were completed at a central location within each of the 7 wetlands in accordance
with the NCWAM User Manual for the baseline monitoring report. These forms characterize each
wetland and can potentially allow for earlier detection of more minute changes, specifically to
species composition and the condition/health of vegetation. The purpose of the NCWAM form is
to provide an accurate, consistent, rapid, observational, and scientifically based field method to
determine the level of function of a wetland relative to reference conditions for each wetland type
in North Carolina. NCWAM forms are not used to determine wetland/upland status or USACE
jurisdictional status. The 2022 baseline NCWAM forms were compared against 2023 conditions,
further discussed in Section 4.2.2.
Stream determinations in North Carolina are made using the standardized "Methodology for
Identification of Intermittent and Perennial Streams and Their Origins" utilizing the DWR Stream
Identification Forms. Forms were completed for 14 stream monitoring points within the Wetland
Investigation Area in May 2023 and September 2023 by a Geosyntec biologist who has completed
a Surface Water Identification and Certification (SWITC) course. The results were compared to
2022 baseline data, further discussed in Section 4.2.3. Although the barrier wall was not completed
by the time of the early growing season stream survey, it had been installed across all stream
features by the Fall monitoring event.

To monitor for immediate changes in surface hydrology that might not be detected by changes in
soil and vegetation, five pairs of wetland groundwater gauges (Infinity pressure water level data
loggers by Infinities USA) were installed in September 2022 to a minimum depth of 15 inches
below surface using USACE technical specifications outlined in the June 2005 "Technical
Standard for Water -Table Monitoring of Potential Wetland Sites, ERDC TN-WRAP-05-2". Each
pair consists of one gauge within the wetland, and one within the upland nearby for comparison of
water tables. These gauges are operated in accordance with the approved Monitoring Plan and
Addendum for evaluation of Performance Standard 93 to record groundwater within 12 inches for
at least 5% of the growing season. Groundwater gauge data was examined in a tabular format and
the longest period of groundwater within 12" of the soil surface during the growing season
(March 16 - November 14), based on the Natural Resource Conservation Service (NRCS) Bladen
County Soil, is reported . Each of the wetland gauges must meet a minimum hydroperiod as
described in the Performance Standard in Section 1.1. Results are discussed in Section 4.2.4.

4 FINDINGS
4.1 Existing Conditions
Seven wetlands were previously delineated within the Wetlands Investigation Area downgradient
and east of the barrier wall construction area, above the Cape Fear River or Willis Creek. The
datapoints and their respective wetlands they represent are presented below in Table 3.
Ten streams were previously delineated with the Wetlands Investigation Area. Each of the streams
was given a baseline NCDEQ 4.11 stream form score in 2022. Most were scored as Perennial.
Stream 5-Up and Stream 6 were scored as intermittent, while Stream 10 scored
Intermittent -ephemeral.
4.2 Year-1 Annual Monitoring — May and September 2023
This section describes the results of data collection conducted in the 2023 Year-1 annual
monitoring effort. Geosyntec documented conditions observed during the assessments at:
• The 22 established USACE wetland and upland datapoints
• Seven NCWAM form monitoring locations
• Bi-annual survey for each stream utilizing DWR stream forms (May and September)
Additionally, Geosyntec collected groundwater data from the installed groundwater gauges
(Appendix E). The findings of these observations are described in the following sub -sections and
discussed in Section 5.
4.2.1 USACE Wetland and Upland Datapoints
The datapoints identified during the 2022 baseline report were revisited during this effort.

Site conditions were observed to be relatively unchanged at most datapoints since the 2022
baseline survey. Small changes in canopy cover due to windfall, likely from recent storms, were
observed at datapoints 4, 5, 5U, and 8. Drier conditions were observed at datapoints lU, 5U3, 7,
11D, and 11; a result of reduced baseflow from upgradient seeps following the installation of the
barrier wall.
Observations of soil characteristics at each datapoint remained consistent with previous conditions.
All wetland datapoints continue to meet the three criteria for classification as a wetland, as defined
by USACE in Section 3 of this report.
4.2.2 NCWAM Form Monitoring Locations
NCWAM forms from the 2022 baseline report were compared to September 2023 conditions for
annual monitoring. Changes that were observed are summarized in Table 4. The NCWAM score
of each wetland is outlined in Table 4. The NCWAM score is generated from the values for each
wetland component (hydrology, water quality, and habitat) relative to wetlands of the same type.
Results for each component and sub -component are further detailed in Appendix A.

Notes:
*NCWAM scores indicate the overall function of a wetland relative to wetlands of the same type in North
Carolina. A high score indicates the wetland is functioning near reference conditions, low indicates not near
reference function.
No significant deviations from the 2022 baseline conditions were observed. However, a change to
a single question at NCWAM3 and NCWAM4 lead to a grade lower final NCWAM score.
Overbank flow alteration was observed in wetland 3 and isolated sedimentation from adjacent
uplands was observed in a small area of wetland 4. It should be noted that this reflects a change
only at the NCWAM monitoring point, and not the wetland overall. The majority of the wetland

was not impacted by the sediment/gravel discharge present. Reduced or absence of baseflow was
observed at the headwater seeps that feed the wetlands below the barrier wall.
4.2.3 Stream Monitoring Locations
Each of the 14 stream monitoring locations were visited twice in 2023, once during the beginning
of the growing season (May) and once near the end of the growing season (September). The scores
of each of the streams is documented in Table 5. Streams that score below 19 are classified as
ephemeral, between 19 and 30 are classified as intermittent, and above 30 are classified as
perennial.
It should be noted, as described in the "Methodology for Identification of Intermittent and
Perennial Streams and Their Origins" a stream's origin, as defined by its flow regimes
(e.g., ephemeral, intermittent, and perennial), usually occurs along transition zones in which the
location and length of the zone is subject to fluctuations in groundwater levels and precipitation.
As such, it can be expected that stream scores will fluctuate between monitoring events.

Most streams within the monitoring area retained their 2022 baseline type. Stream 3, 5, 7, 7-Up,
and 8-Up moved from perennial to intermittent type. It was apparent that stream monitoring points
below the barrier wall had lost all or almost all of the baseflow following the installation of the
barrier wall; however, some flow still does reach the streambed surface from reduced groundwater
flow originating from the headwater seeps and in the form of sheetflow from the immediate

uplands. These seeps are observed to be less active (e.g., reduced flow) than in 2022, but still
provide minimum baseflow or indicate evidence of active geomorphic fluvial indicators. Changes
at upgradient stream points are potentially a result of the variability in climatic conditions or
changes in upstream contributions and may not be considered an impact of barrier wall installation.
However, changes at upgradient monitoring points can inform our interpretations of downgradient
monitoring point changes. This is especially true in the case of the upstream reference monitoring
point S7-Up, in which its downstream monitoring point Stream 7 also experienced a change from
perennial to intermittent. Streams are dynamic systems, the changes in upgradient monitoring
points may provide evidence indicating why changes may be identified in downstream monitoring
points.
Stream 4-Up scored down to intermittent in the spring surveys but scored perennial again in the
fall. The stream experienced some disturbance following 2022 baseline data collection, in the form
of impoundment from boundary road construction expansion. This impoundment resulted in a
change in habitat. This disturbance lowered the score in spring 2023, but it appeared to recover to
some degree by the fall.
Stream 5-Up moved from intermittent to perennial in 2023. This stream likely experiences a flashy
hydrograph due to high levels of upgradient impervious surface and deep bank incision from
erosion over time. In the fall 2022 survey, the entire surveyed reach was dry. In spring 2023, the
entire reach had baseflow. In fall 2023 the lower reach was dry, while the upper reach had slight
baseflow and deeper pools of water. A salamander identified at Stream 5-Up indicates the presence
of regular baseflow.
Stream 10 moved up from ephemeral to intermittent in the spring, and then back down to
ephemeral in the fall. This stream is likely naturally on the borderline between the two types,
further complicated by on -site stormwater management as the constructed barrier wall does not
cross this stream.
4.2.4 Groundwater Gage Data
Groundwater gages were not installed until October 11, 2022, therefore we do not have a complete
year of baseline data prior to barrier wall installation. To meet Performance Standard 93 of shallow
groundwater for 5% hydroperiod, baseline data is not necessary, only demonstration of shallow
water table for 12.15 consecutive days during the growing season (March 16 — November 14).
Daily groundwater elevations were analyzed for the growing season. Results detailing the longest
periods that the USACE primary hydrology indicator for high water table, water within 12" of the
surface, was met as shown in Table 6.

Minimum hydroperiod was met at 2 of the 5 wetland gages. However, the area was at a 9.22"
rainfall deficit for the year-to-date according to the National Weather Service Fayetteville Area,
NC Climate Station 4. Bladen and Cumberland counties were listed as being in Severe Drought by
the U.S. Drought Monitors for the week of November 16, 2023. This indicates that there has been
persistent rainfall deficit over time to achieve Severe Drought status for the end of the growing
season. The APT tool showed a score of "Drier than normal -7" conditions, indicating mild
drought. The 30 day rolling total for rainfall appeared to have been below normal since late
September based on the APT graph output. It is possible that failure to meet hydroperiod at W-2A
Wet, W-2b Wet, and W-3 Wet could be a result of climatic conditions. Additionally, groundwater
data prior to the barrier wall installation is not available to demonstrate that these locations would
have met hydroperiod prior to barrier wall installation, as wetland hydrology can be determined
by a number of indicators and not just shallow groundwater. Failure to meet hydroperiod does not
mean that wetland designation is not maintained as there are other hydrology indicators that may
be met.

5 SUMMARY AND DISCUSSION
The 2023 annual monitoring was performed after the installation of the barrier wall, to document
trends or changes that may have occurred for the wetland and stream conditions of the Wetlands
Investigation Area. This monitoring program will run for 5 years after the wall is installed to
evaluated potential changes that may occur in wetlands and streams downgradient of the
construction. This monitoring scope included USACE wetland datapoint monitoring, NCWAM
form data collection, DWR Stream form collection, and analysis of groundwater gauge data. No
significant deviations in wetland composition or size were documented during this monitoring
effort. Evaluation against the Performance Standards was discussed below.

The site experienced below average rainfall, abnormally dry, and drought conditions during the
2023 monitoring period. It is reasonable to consider these conditions could have contributed to the
failure of 3 GW gauge locations to meet performance standard.
Observations and changes are further detailed in Table 3 and Appendix A; and documented in the
representative photographs (Appendix B). Monitoring will occur in 2024 consistent with the scope
described in Section 4.3.

The field surveys were conducted September 11-13, 2023 during a period in which the region had received below normal rainfall amounts for the September month

recorded on 9/9 and 9/10, respectively. The observed Year -to -Date amount was 31.14" which is a 3.67" deficit according to the National Weather Service
Fayetteville Area, SC climate station. Considering recent rainfall but overall deficit for the month/year, the delineators felt that surface hydrology was normal with
minimal stormwater influence affecting typical surface hydrology despite the below average annual precipitation to date. No high-water, flooding conditions were
observed. A review of regional drought conditions from the website droughtmonitor.gov indicated no drought conditions existed for the regional area for the week of
September 13, 2023. In addition, based on the results of the climate analysis using the Antecedent Precipitation Tool (Deter, USACE v.1.0.13) the calculated outpu

The field surveys were conducted September 11-13, 2023 during a period in which the region had received below normal rainfall amounts for the September month
to -date (a -1.4" deficit from a 1.92" normal value) as of September 13. This includes recent precipitation events just prior to the surveys in which 0.19 and 0.33" wer,
recorded on 9/9 and 9/10, respectively. The observed Year -to -Date amount was 31.14" which is a 3.67" deficit according to the National Weather Service
Fayetteville Area, SC climate station. Considering recent rainfall but overall deficit for the month/year, the delineators felt that surface hydrology was normal with
minimal stormwater influence affecting typical surface hydrology despite the below average annual precipitation to date. No high-water, flooding conditions were
observed. A review of regional drought conditions from the website droughtmonitor.gov indicated no drought conditions existed for the regional area for the week of
September 13, 2023. In addition, based on the results of the climate analysis using the Antecedent Precipitation Tool (Deter, USACE v.1.0.13) the calculated outpu
was a -13 value "Normal Conditions" with the graphic indicating the 30-day Rolling Total was located within the 30-Year Normal Range (see attached graphic).

Remarks
The field surveys were conducted September 11-13, 2023 during a period in which the region had received below normal rainfall amounts for the September month
to -date (a -1.4" deficit from a 1.92" normal value) as of September 13. This includes recent precipitation events just prior to the surveys in which 0.19 and 0.33" wer,
recorded on 9/9 and 9/10, respectively. The observed Year -to -Date amount was 31.14" which is a 3.67" deficit according to the National Weather Service
Fayetteville Area, SC climate station. Considering recent rainfall but overall deficit for the month/year, the delineators felt that surface hydrology was normal with
minimal stormwater influence affecting typical surface hydrology despite the below average annual precipitation to date. No high-water, flooding conditions were
observed. A review of regional drought conditions from the website droughtmonitor.gov indicated no drought conditions existed for the regional area for the week of
September 13, 2023. In addition, based on the results of the climate analysis using the Antecedent Precipitation Tool (Deter, USACE v.1.0.13) the calculated outpu
was a -13 value "Normal Conditions" with the graphic indicating the 30-day Rolling Total was located within the 30-Year Normal Range (see attached graphic)..
Primary hydrology is seepheads and high water table.

Remarks
The field surveys were conducted September 11-13, 2023 during a period in which the region had received below normal rainfall amounts for the September month
to -date (a -1.4" deficit from a 1.92" normal value) as of September 13. This includes recent precipitation events just prior to the surveys in which 0.19 and 0.33" wer,
recorded on 9/9 and 9/10, respectively. The observed Year -to -Date amount was 31.14" which is a 3.67" deficit according to the National Weather Service
Fayetteville Area, SC climate station. Considering recent rainfall but overall deficit for the month/year, the delineators felt that surface hydrology was normal with
minimal stormwater influence affecting typical surface hydrology despite the below average annual precipitation to date. No high-water, flooding conditions were
observed. A review of regional drought conditions from the website droughtmonitor.gov indicated no drought conditions existed for the regional area for the week of
September 13, 2023. In addition, based on the results of the climate analysis using the Antecedent Precipitation Tool (Deter, USACE v.1.0.13) the calculated outpu
was a -13 value "Normal Conditions" with the graphic indicating the 30-day Rolling Total was located within the 30-Year Normal Range (see attached graphic).

The field surveys were conducted September 11-13, 2023 during a period in which the region had received below normal rainfall amounts for the September month
to -date (a -1.4" deficit from a 1.92" normal value) as of September 13. This includes recent precipitation events just prior to the surveys in which 0.19 and 0.33" wer,
recorded on 9/9 and 9/10, respectively. The observed Year -to -Date amount was 31.14" which is a 3.67" deficit according to the National Weather Service
Fayetteville Area, SC climate station. Considering recent rainfall but overall deficit for the month/year, the delineators felt that surface hydrology was normal with
minimal stormwater influence affecting typical surface hydrology despite the below average annual precipitation to date. No high-water, flooding conditions were
observed. A review of regional drought conditions from the website droughtmonitor.gov indicated no drought conditions existed for the regional area for the week of
September 13, 2023. In addition, based on the results of the climate analysis using the Antecedent Precipitation Tool (Deter, USACE v.1.0.13) the calculated outpu
was a -13 value "Normal Conditions" with the graphic indicating the 30-day Rolling Total was located within the 30-Year Normal Range (see attached graphic).
Primary hydrology is seepheads and a high water table.

Remarks
The field surveys were conducted September 11-13, 2023 during a period in which the region had received below normal rainfall amounts for the September month
to -date (a -1.4" deficit from a 1.92" normal value) as of September 13. This includes recent precipitation events just prior to the surveys in which 0.19 and 0.33" wer,
recorded on 9/9 and 9/10, respectively. The observed Year -to -Date amount was 31.14" which is a 3.67" deficit according to the National Weather Service
Fayetteville Area, SC climate station. Considering recent rainfall but overall deficit for the month/year, the delineators felt that surface hydrology was normal with
minimal stormwater influence affecting typical surface hydrology despite the below average annual precipitation to date. No high-water, flooding conditions were
observed. A review of regional drought conditions from the website droughtmonitor.gov indicated no drought conditions existed for the regional area for the week of
September 13, 2023. In addition, based on the results of the climate analysis using the Antecedent Precipitation Tool (Deter, USACE v.1.0.13) the calculated outpu
was a -13 value "Normal Conditions" with the graphic indicating the 30-day Rolling Total was located within the 30-Year Normal Range (see attached graphic).

The field surveys were conducted September 11-13, 2023 during a period in which the region had received below normal rainfall amounts for the September month
to -date (a -1.4" deficit from a 1.92" normal value) as of September 13. This includes recent precipitation events just prior to the surveys in which 0.19 and 0.33" wer,
recorded on 9/9 and 9/10, respectively. The observed Year -to -Date amount was 31.14" which is a 3.67" deficit according to the National Weather Service
Fayetteville Area, SC climate station. Considering recent rainfall but overall deficit for the month/year, the delineators felt that surface hydrology was normal with
minimal stormwater influence affecting typical surface hydrology despite the below average annual precipitation to date. No high-water, flooding conditions were
observed. A review of regional drought conditions from the website droughtmonitor.gov indicated no drought conditions existed for the regional area for the week of
September 13, 2023. In addition, based on the results of the climate analysis using the Antecedent Precipitation Tool (Deter, USACE v.1.0.13) the calculated outpu
was a -13 value "Normal Conditions" with the graphic indicating the 30-day Rolling Total was located within the 30-Year Normal Range (see attached graphic).
Primary hydrology is seepheads and high water table.

Remarks
The field surveys were conducted September 11-13, 2023 during a period in which the region had received below normal rainfall amounts for the September month
to -date (a -1.4" deficit from a 1.92" normal value) as of September 13. This includes recent precipitation events just prior to the surveys in which 0.19 and 0.33" wer,
recorded on 9/9 and 9/10, respectively. The observed Year -to -Date amount was 31.14" which is a 3.67" deficit according to the National Weather Service
Fayetteville Area, SC climate station. Considering recent rainfall but overall deficit for the month/year, the delineators felt that surface hydrology was normal with
minimal stormwater influence affecting typical surface hydrology despite the below average annual precipitation to date. No high-water, flooding conditions were
observed. A review of regional drought conditions from the website droughtmonitor.gov indicated no drought conditions existed for the regional area for the week of
September 13, 2023. In addition, based on the results of the climate analysis using the Antecedent Precipitation Tool (Deter, USACE v.1.0.13) the calculated outpu
was a -13 value "Normal Conditions" with the graphic indicating the 30-day Rolling Total was located within the 30-Year Normal Range (see attached graphic).
Primary hydrology is high water table and floodplain of willis creek.
