This letter serves as the documentation for DMS’ comments, and Wildlands’ corresponding responses. DMS’ comments are depicted below in bold type, while Wildlands’ responses are depicted below in italics. Review Comments: DMS’ comment: Report Cover: Thank you for including the data collection dates. Wildlands’ response: You’re welcome. DMS’ comment: Section 2.1 Vegetative Assessment: Include discussion of any supplemental livestaking installed during MY1 or MY2 as requested during the 2023 Credit Release meeting. Wildlands’ response: Wildlands assessed the livestake plantings and determined that no supplemental planting was necessary. We will continue to assess livestake plantings throughout the monitoring period. DMS’ comment: Section 2.2 Vegetation Areas of Concern and Management Activities: In the upcoming MY3 report, please include observations and discussion of the vegetation progress in the 0.7-acre low stem density area along UT3 and Clarks Creek. Wildlands’ response: The low stem density areas along UT3 and Clarks Creek will be closely monitored in the upcoming monitoring years and discussed in the MY3 report. DMS’ comment: Section 2.2 Vegetation Areas of Concern and Management Activities - Invasive Treatments: Thank you for conducting the ongoing privet treatment. The overall privet reduction has been noted during DMS site inspections. Wildlands’ response: Noted. The areas previously treated for privet will be re-evaluated and re-treated as necessary in the upcoming monitoring years. DMS’ comment: 2.6 Wetland Hydrology Assessment: GWGs 2 and 7 did not meet their hydroperiods again during MY2. The wells are geographically positioned near the center of their respective wetland polygons but may be located on small areas of higher elevation based on field observations and adjacent well measurements. Please verify the well locations are hydrologically representative of their surrounding wetland areas. Wildlands Engineering, Inc.  phone 704-332-7754  fax 704-332-3306  1430 S. Mint Street, # 104  Charlotte, NC 28203 Wildlands’ response: To ensure that the hydrologic data collected for the proposed wetlands surrounding GWG2 and GWG7 is representative of each area’s elevation, Wildlands will install an additional well near each existing gage. The wells will be installed in MY3 prior to the onset of the growing season. Hydrologic data for the additional wells and their locations will be included in the MY3 report. Wildlands will continue to collect hydrologic data from GWG2 and GWG7, as well as the newly installed wells throughout the remainder of the 7-year monitoring period. DMS’ comment: Appendix D. Hydrology Data - UT1B Crest Gage: The pressure transducer appears to be set above the base flow water level and is continually dry. The gage should be set at a lower elevation to show changes in stream stage throughout the year. Wildlands’ response: The crest gage on UT1B will be re-installed at a lower elevation in the same location in MY3 to show the changes in the stream stage throughout the year. Digital Deliverable Comments: DMS’ comment: The digital deliverables were within specification. Please update the final submittal following receipt and response to these comments. Wildlands’ response: Noted. As requested, Wildlands has included two (2) hard copies of the final report and a full final electronic submittal of the support files on a USB.

The geomorphic, vegetative, and hydrologic success criteria for the Site follow the approved success criteria presented in the Mitigation Plan (Wildlands, 2021). Performance criteria are located in Section 1.2 Table 2: Goals, Performance Criteria, and Functional Improvements. Methodology for annual monitoring is presented in the MY0 Annual Report (Wildlands, 2022). 2.1 Vegetative Assessment The MY2 vegetative survey was completed in August 2023. Vegetation monitoring resulted in a stem density range from 324 to 769 planted stems per acre. All 29 vegetation plots exceed the interim requirement of 320 stems per acre required at MY3. All volunteer species were and will continue to be inventoried according to the same metrics applied to planted stems. Herbaceous vegetation is also abundant across the Site and includes native pollinator species, indicating a healthy riparian habitat. Refer to Appendix A for vegetation plot photographs and the Vegetation Condition Assessment Table and Appendix B for vegetation plot data. 2.2 Vegetation Areas of Concern and Management Activities Bare root mortality has been observed along Clarks Creek likely due to competition with fescue. These areas were evaluated and treated in February 2023 with ring-sprays to limit fescue competition. Additionally, approximately four acres of soil amendments were added to the trees that were ring sprayed along Clarks Creek as well as low performing areas around the wetlands on Big Branch. Vegetative performance in these areas will be reassessed and discussed in MY3. Low planted stem density areas have been observed on the upstream portion of UT3 and along Clarks Creek, equating to 0.7 acres in total. These areas will continue to be observed for new growth in MY3. Refer to Appendix A for the Vegetation Condition Assessment Table and Figures 1b-c for a mapped representation of low stem density areas on the Site. During construction, dense areas of Chinese privet (Ligustrum sinense) along Clarks Creek were mechanically removed; thereby, greatly decreasing the privet population along Clarks Creek. In February 2023, a foliar chemical treatment was applied to privet populations along UT1. This treatment was deemed successful when observed in the fall of 2023. These areas will be re-evaluated and re-treated, if necessary. In addition, previously untreated areas of dense Chinse privet along UT3 are scheduled for treatment in early 2024. Due to the nature of treating dense tracts of Chinese privet or any invasive species, Wildlands recognizes that multiple treatments are typically needed throughout the monitoring period for effective invasive plant control. Refer to the Vegetation Condition Assessment Table in Appendix A for information on additional vegetative areas of concern and to Figures 1a-c for the treated and untreated areas of Chinese privet. A full easement boundary inspection will be conducted every monitoring year to ensure that the easement remains intact and free from violations. In MY2, no easement encroachments were observed. 2.3 Stream Assessment Morphological surveys for MY2 were conducted in June 2023. All streams within the Site are stable and functioning as designed. All 14 cross-sections at the Site show little to no change in the bankfull areas, the width-to-depth ratios, and the entrenchment ratios (ERs), and the bank height ratios (BHRs) are less than 1.2. Pebble count data is no longer required per the September 29, 2021 Technical Work Group Meeting and is not included in this report. The IRT reserves the right to request pebble count data/particle distributions if deemed necessary during the monitoring period. Refer to Appendix A for Cross Creek Ranch Site Monitoring Year 2 Annual Report - Final 2-2 the Visual Stream Morphology Stability Assessment Table and stream photographs and Appendix C for stream geomorphology data. 2.4 Stream Areas of Concern A site assessment last conducted in November 2023 found that there were no stream areas of concern across the project. The banks all appear stable and are well covered by newly established vegetation. 2.5 Stream Hydrology Assessment Big Branch exhibited four bankfull events in MY2 as of November 20, 2023, and is on track to meet performance standards of four bankfull events in separate years during the 7-year monitoring period for restored streams. Though UT3 R1, UT1 R1, and UT1B did not have a bankfull event in MY2, all three reaches exhibited consistent baseflow at the crest gage locations throughout the year. Due to the low flow conditions at the upstream extent of UT3 R1, a stream gage was installed to ensure that the reach maintained at least 30 days of consecutive baseflow. Results in MY2 show that the reach met and exceeded the minimum baseflow requirement with 54 days of consecutive flow. Refer to Appendix D for additional stream hydrology data. 2.6 Wetland Hydrology Assessment The performance criterion for wetland restoration is the presence of free groundwater within 12 inches of the soil surface for 11% (29 days) of the growing season in the rehabilitation zones and 12% (32 days) of the growing season in the re-establishment zones. Growing season dates approved in the Mitigation Plan (Wildlands, 2021) were March 17 through November 20, with an allowance for modification based on soil temperature data and bud burst. Modification of the growing season to March 1, through November 20 was established in MY1 and reverified in MY2 based on a soil temperature of above 41 degrees Fahrenheit for the entire observation period, bud burst photos of American elderberry (Sambucus canadensis), winged elm (Ulmus alata), and Eastern redcedar (Juniperus virginiana) on February 22, 2023, and post-leaf senescence photos on November 6, 2023. Therefore, March 1 – November 20 will be the established growing season throughout the remainder of the monitoring period. See Appendix A for bud burst and post-leaf senescence aerial photos in 2023 and Appendix D for the soil temperature data. In MY2, seven of the nine GWGs met and/or exceeded the wetland hydrologic performance criteria at the Site. GWGs 5 & 6 within the wetland rehabilitation zones and GWGs 1, 3, 4, 8, and 9 in re- establishment zones are meeting criteria. While the majority of the rainfall at the Site was at or above the normal rainfall each month, most of July and the beginning of September of 2023 experienced moderate (D1) drought conditions (National Drought Mitigation Center, 2023). Though a few small rainfall events occurred in mid-September, moderate (D1) drought conditions continued from the end of September to the end of the growing season. Therefore, as drought conditions improve with winter rainfall and groundwater continues to recharge across the Site, it is anticipated that wetland hydrology will also improve; however, groundwater recharge will have to first overcome the water storage deficit. To ensure that the hydrologic data collected for the proposed wetlands surrounding the two currently failing groundwater wells (GWG2 and GWG7) is representative of each area’s elevation, Wildlands will install an additional well near each existing gage. The wells will be installed in MY3 prior to the onset of the growing season. Hydrologic data for the additional wells and their locations will be included in the MY3 report. Wildlands will continue to collect hydrologic data from GWG2 and GWG7, as well as the newly installed wells throughout the remainder of the 7-year monitoring period. In MY2, the annual precipitation station used in MY1, Jackson Springs 5 WNW, in Montgomery County, NC did not have any rainfall data available after October 31, 2023, nor did any other near-by stations Cross Creek Ranch Site Monitoring Year 2 Annual Report - Final 2-3 from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) Regional Climate Center (RCC) website for the Applied Climate Information System (ACIS). Therefore, a different station (UNFN7 Uwharrie (Troy)) was referenced, and the rainfall data was downloaded from the Cardinal Data Retrieval System on the NC State Climate Office’s (SCO) website. If available, Wildlands will continue to use the UNFN7 Uwharrie (Troy) station throughout the remainder of the monitoring period. The WETS Table’s 30th and 70th percentiles (1992-2022) were still obtained from the Jackson Springs 5 WNW station (NOAA, 2023). If available, Wildlands will continue to reference the Jackson Springs 5 WNW climate station throughout the remainder of the monitoring period. Refer to Appendix D for the hydrologic wetland and precipitation data. Annual inspections of the bentonite seals around the groundwater gages are a regular part of Wildlands’ protocol, and bentonite was added as needed this year. Refer to Appendix A for groundwater well photos, and Appendix D for the Rainfall Summary Table and the Groundwater Gage Summary Table and plots. 2.7 Monitoring Year 2 Summary All 29 vegetation plots exceeded the MY3 interim requirement of 320 stems per acre. All streams across the Site are stable and the cross sections show little dimensional change since the as-built survey. Chinese privet was chemically treated along Clarks Creek and UT1 in 2023. There are approximately 2.7 acres remaining, primarily along UT3. These areas along with resprouts along Clarks Creek and UT will be treated in early MY3. Four bankfull events were documented on Big Branch. UT3 R1, UT1 R1, and UT1B have yet to obtain a bankfull event during MY2, but the gages recorded consistent baseflow on all three streams. Due to low flow conditions in the upstream extent of UT3 R1, the reach was monitored for at least 30 consecutive days of baseflow. UT3 R1 exhibited 54 consecutive days of stream flow, fulfilling MY2 success requirements. Seven of the nine groundwater gages met or exceeded the hydrologic success criteria for MY2. The easement boundary has been checked throughout the Site, and no issues were identified. Overall, the Site is meeting the goals outlined in Table 2, which were established within the Mitigation Plan, and is on track to meet final success criteria. Summary information and data related to the performance of the various project and monitoring elements can be found in the tables and figures in the report’s appendices. All raw data supporting the tables and figures in the appendices are available from DMS upon request.

Easement Acreage 63.9 Vegetation Category Definitions Mapping Threshold (ac) Combined Acreage % of Easement Acreage Easement Encroachment Areas Encroachment may be point, line, or polygon. Encroachment to be mapped consists of any violation of restrictions specified in the conservation easement. Common encroachments are mowing, cattle access, vehicular access. Encroachment has no threshold value as will need to be addressed regardless of impact area. none Visual assessment was completed November 21, 2023. Table 5. Vegetation Condition Assessment Table Total Cumulative Total 0 Encroachments Noted / 0 ac Invasive Areas of Concern Invasives may occur outside of planted areas and within the easement and will therefore be calculated against the total easement acreage. Include species with the potential to directly outcompete native, young, woody stems in the short‐term or community structure for existing communities. Invasive species included in summation above should be identified in report summary. 0.1 2.7 4% STREAM PHOTOGRAPHS Cross Creek Ranch Site Appendix A: Visual Assessment Data – Stream Photographs PHOTO POINT 1 UT1 R1 – upstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 1 UT1 R1 – downstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 2 UT1 R1 – upstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 2 UT1 R1 – downstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 3 UT1 R1 – upstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 3 UT1 R1 – downstream (5/9/2023) Cross Creek Ranch Site Appendix A: Visual Assessment Data – Stream Photographs PHOTO POINT 4 UT1 R1 – upstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 4 UT1 R1 – downstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 5 UT1 R1 – upstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 5 UT1 R1 – downstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 6 UT1 R1 – upstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 6 UT1 R1 – downstream (5/9/2023) Cross Creek Ranch Site Appendix A: Visual Assessment Data – Stream Photographs PHOTO POINT 7 UT1 R1 – upstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 7 UT1 R1 – downstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 8 UT1 R1 – upstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 8 UT1 R1 – downstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 9 UT1 R2 – upstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 9 UT1 R2 – downstream (5/9/2023) Cross Creek Ranch Site Appendix A: Visual Assessment Data – Stream Photographs PHOTO POINT 10 UT1 R2 – upstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 10 UT1 R2 – downstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 11 UT1B – upstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 11 UT1B – downstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 12 UT1B – upstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 12 UT1B – downstream (5/9/2023) Cross Creek Ranch Site Appendix A: Visual Assessment Data – Stream Photographs PHOTO POINT 13 UT1B – upstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 13 UT1B – downstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 14 UT1B – upstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 14 UT1B – downstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 15 Clarks Creek – upstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 15 Clarks Creek – downstream (5/9/2023) Cross Creek Ranch Site Appendix A: Visual Assessment Data – Stream Photographs PHOTO POINT 16 Clarks Creek – upstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 16 Clarks Creek – downstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 17 Clarks Creek – upstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 17 Clarks Creek – downstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 18 Clarks Creek – upstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 18 Clarks Creek – downstream (5/9/2023) Cross Creek Ranch Site Appendix A: Visual Assessment Data – Stream Photographs PHOTO POINT 19 Clarks Creek – upstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 19 Clarks Creek – downstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 20 Clarks Creek – upstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 20 Clarks Creek – downstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 21 Clarks Creek – upstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 21 Clarks Creek – downstream (5/9/2023) Cross Creek Ranch Site Appendix A: Visual Assessment Data – Stream Photographs PHOTO POINT 22 Big Branch – upstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 22 Big Branch – downstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 23 Big Branch – upstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 23 Big Branch – downstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 24 Big Branch – upstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 24 Big Branch – downstream (5/9/2023) Cross Creek Ranch Site Appendix A: Visual Assessment Data – Stream Photographs PHOTO POINT 25 Big Branch – upstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 25 Big Branch – downstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 26 Big Branch – upstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 26 Big Branch – downstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 27 Big Branch – upstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 27 Big Branch – downstream (5/9/2023) Cross Creek Ranch Site Appendix A: Visual Assessment Data – Stream Photographs PHOTO POINT 28 UT3 R1 – upstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 28 UT3 R1 – downstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 29 UT3 R1 – upstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 29 UT3 R1 – downstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 30 UT3 R2 – upstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 30 UT3 R2 – downstream (5/9/2023) Cross Creek Ranch Site Appendix A: Visual Assessment Data – Stream Photographs PHOTO POINT 31 UT3 R2 – upstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 31 UT3 R2 – downstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 32 UT3 R2 – upstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 32 UT3 R2 – downstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 33 UT3 R2 – upstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 33 UT3 R2 – downstream (5/9/2023) Cross Creek Ranch Site Appendix A: Visual Assessment Data – Stream Photographs PHOTO POINT 34 UT3 R2 – upstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 34 UT3 R2 – downstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 35 UT3 R3 – upstream (5/9/2023) PHOTO POINT 35 UT3 R3 – downstream (5/9/2023) CULVERT CROSSING PHOTOGRAPHS Cross Creek Ranch Site Appendix A: Visual Assessment Data -
