DMS Project #97136 1 MY04 Monitoring Report
PROJECT SUMMARY
The Mill Dam Creek Restoration Site (MDCRS) was completed in March 2020 and restored and enhanced
a total of 13,505 linear feet of stream. The MDCRS is a riparian system in the Upper Yadkin Pee-Dee River
Basin (3040101 8-digit cataloging unit) in Yadkin County, North Carolina. The site’s natural hydrologic
regime had been substantially modified through the relocation and straightening of the existing stream
channels, livestock impacts, and clearing of riparian buffer. This completed project will restore streams
impacted by pasture and agriculture to a stable headwater ecosystem with a functional riparian buffer and
floodplain access.
The MDCRS is protected by a 40.2 acre permanent conservation easement, held by the State of North
Carolina. The site is located approximately 0.5 miles north of East Bend, NC. Specifically, the site is 0.2
mile north on Shady Grove Church Road (SR-1538) from its intersection with Shoals Road (SR-1546).
The North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program (NCEEP) published the Upper Yadkin Pee-Dee
River Basin Restoration Priorities (RBRP) in 2009. The project’s 14 digit CU (03040101110070, Grassy
Creek and Horne Creek) was identified as a Targeted Local Watershed (TLW) in the RBRP. The goals and
priorities for the MDCRS are based on the information presented in the Upper Yadkin Pee-Dee River Basin
Restoration Priorities: maintaining and enhancing water quality, restoring hydrology, and improving fish
and wildlife habitat (NCEEP, 2009). The project will support the following basin priorities:
‐ Managing stormwater runoff
‐ Reducing fecal coliform inputs
‐ Improving/restoring riparian buffers
‐ Reducing sediment loading
‐ Improving stream stability
‐ Reducing nutrient loading
‐ Excluding livestock and implementing other agricultural BMP’s
‐ Protecting high-resource value waters, including water supply watershed designated waters
The project is also located in the Ararat River Local Watershed Plan (LWP) study area. The Ararat River
was designated a LWP Study Area due to poor water quality and aquatic habitat degradation issues, as well
as the presence of good candidate sites for stream restoration in rural catchments (NCEEP, 2009). The
stressors within the Ararat River LWP are erosion and sedimentation, missing or degraded riparian buffers,
stormwater runoff, and nutrient and fecal coliform “hot spots” (NCEEP, 2013).
The goals for the project are to:
‐ Restore channelized and livestock-impacted streams to stable C and B type channels.
‐ Restore a forested riparian buffer to provide bank stability, filtration, and shading.
The project goals will be addressed through the following objectives:
‐ Relocate or stabilize channelized and/or incised streams to connect to a floodplain or floodprone
area.
‐ Install a cross-section sized to the bankfull discharge.
‐ Create bedform diversity with pools, riffles, and habitat structures
‐ Fence out livestock to reduce nutrient, bacterial, and sediment impacts from adjacent grazing and
farming practices to the project tributaries
‐ Plant the site with native trees and shrubs and an herbaceous seed mix.
Project construction was completed in December 2019 and project planting was completed in March 2020.
The 13,505 linear feet of streams at MDCRS were enhanced and restored by re-meandering the stream and
by tying the bankfull elevation to the historic floodplain where feasible. The entire site was planted to
Mill Dam Creek Restoration Site KCI Associates of NC, PA
DMS Project #97136 2 MY04 Monitoring Report
establish a forested riparian buffer. The site was constructed as designed with only minor modifications
from the design plan. These modifications generally consisted of slight adjustments in the alignment and
spacing of riffles/pools due to bedrock encountered during construction. Several areas of additional bank
stabilization were also installed. On February 6, 2020, shortly after construction was completed and before
woody stems had been planted, the site received over 6 inches of rain in a 24 hour period. This storm caused
significant damage to portions of the site and required repairs to the site, which were completed in March
2020. These repairs mainly involved repair of bank erosion through the installation of live lifts, removal of
aggradation from the stream channel, and regrading areas of floodplain scour. Approximately 500 cubic
yards of topsoil were also brought in and placed on the floodplain in areas of severe scour. Additional heavy
precipitation events took place in the fall of 2020. These events caused isolated areas of bank erosion and
the movement of a boulder sill. In July 2021, these areas were repaired by sloping back the eroding banks,
reapplying coir matting, installing new live stakes, and repairing the damaged boulder sill on UTHC 4-1.
The monitoring components were installed in March/April 2020. Five automatically recording pressure
transducer stream gauges that take a reading every 10 minutes were installed: one each in the upper third
of T1A, T5A, and T8A to document flow within those reaches, and two on UTHC to record the occurrence
of bankfull events. Cameras were installed in the vicinity of each of the flow gauges and set to record a
short video once a day to provide additional verification of flow. Two automatically recording pressure
transducer groundwater monitoring gauges were installed within pre-existing wetlands on the site to
monitor wetland hydrology and ensure the existing wetlands on the site are not adversely affected by the
restoration project. One of these gauges is located in the vicinity of the pre-existing wetland on the left bank
of T7 and the other is located within the pre-existing wetland on the right bank of T8. To determine the
success of the planted mitigation areas, eighteen 10 m x 10 m permanent vegetation monitoring plots were
established. An additional twelve 10 m x 10 m random temporary vegetation monitoring plots are sampled
during each monitoring year as well. The locations of the planted stems relative to the origin were recorded
within the permanent plots and the species and height of each planted stem were recorded for all plots. Any
volunteers found within the plots were grouped into size categories by species, but separate from the planted
stems. Twelve permanent photo reference points were established and are taken annually. Thirty-two
permanent cross-sections (24 riffle cross-sections and 8 pool cross-sections) were also established and a
detailed longitudinal profile of the stream was taken. Wolman pebble counts were performed at all of the
riffle cross-sections. The cross-section measurements are repeated in monitoring years 1, 2, 3, 5, and 7, but
the longitudinal profile and Wolman pebble counts will only be repeated if there are concerns about bed
elevation adjustments. Reports will be submitted to DMS each year.
SUCCESS CRITERIA
Vegetative success criteria for the stream mitigation is 260 woody stems/acre after five years, and 210
woody stems/acre after seven years. Trees in each plot must average seven feet in height at Year 5 and ten
feet in height at Year 7. Volunteer species must be present for a minimum of two growing seasons and must
be a species from the approved planting list to count toward vegetative success. A single species may not
account for more than 50% of the required number of stems within any plot.
A minimum of four bankfull events must also be recorded during the monitoring period. All project streams
must show a minimum of 30 continuous days of flow within a calendar year (assuming normal
precipitation) A “normal” year is based on NRCS climatological data for Yadkin County with the 30th and
70th percentile thresholds as the range of normal, as documented in the USACE Technical Report
“Accessing and Using Meteorological Data to Evaluate Wetland Hydrology, April 2000.”
Bank height ratios (BHR) should not exceed 1.2 and the entrenchment ratios (ER) should be 2.2 or greater.
BHR and ER at any measured riffle cross-section should not change more than 10% from the previous
Mill Dam Creek Restoration Site KCI Associates of NC, PA
DMS Project #97136 3 MY04 Monitoring Report
condition during any given monitoring interval (e.g. no more than 10% between years 1 and 2, 2 and 3, 3
and 5, or 5 and 7). Visual assessments will also be used to identify problem areas.
MONITORING RESULTS
Neither vegetation nor cross-section monitoring were conducted during MY04, as stipulated in the
Mitigation Plan. Vegetation and cross-section monitoring will resume in MY05.
During MY03, it was noted that the bed and banks of both XS24 and XS25 had aggraded. These cross-
sections are located along the lower portion of T6. This reach is a small stream with an un-stabilized section
above the project reaches. During MY04, KCI investigated the upper portions of this stream to determine
the source of the sediment that has been moving through the project reaches. It was found that there are
some areas of erosion within the cattle pasture just off site. Due to the topography of this area, loose
sediment produced by this erosion is washed into the crossing on T6, where it enters the project reach. This
has lead to aggradation on T6 just downstream from the crossing, until the confluence with T6A. At this
point the grade of the stream increases from about 2.8% to 4.2% and the stream is able to move the sediment
through the reach effectively. Once T6 reaches the floodplain of UTHC, the grade decreases to
approximately 1.5% and the sediment drops out. This lower portion of T6 is where XS24 and XS25 are
located. Despite the aggradation that has built up in these two areas, the stream has maintained a defined
bed and banks throughout the entire reach and the development of additional flow paths has not been noted.
The stream is still functioning as a stream, and KCI does not believe that this aggradation represents a threat
to project success but is just the natural evolution of the project within its watershed.
During a site walk on December 18, 2023, several piping structures were noted. Two of these are at the
beginning of the aggradation along the lower reach of T6 described above. One more is located near the
bottom of T5 and three are located along T4. Piping along T4 has been caused by the steep slope of the
project stream. Despite this piping, all of the structures on this reach are maintaining their grade. KCI will
continue to monitor these structures carefully and is evaluating the need for repairs in this area.
During 2023, the stream gauge on UTHC-1 recorded 9 bankfull events, while the gauge on UTHC-3
recorded 7 bankfull events. All three of the reaches being monitored for flow demonstrated more than 30
consecutive days of flow during 2023. The gauge on T1A recorded a maximum of 79 consecutive days.
The gauge on T5A recorded flow for 335 consecutive days (the entire period of record for 2022) and the
gauge on T8A recorded a maximum of 220 consecutive days. The gauge data was further verified by the
cameras on site. Based on the video recordings obtained from the cameras, T1A had a maximum of 83
consecutive days of flow, T5A had a maximum of 140 consecutive days of flow, and T8A had a maximum
of 80 consecutive days of flow. The differences between the number of days of flow documented by the
cameras versus the gauges is largely due to extended periods of time during which the cameras were
obscured by vegetation during the growing season and periods of time when the stream flow was at levels
too low for the gauges to record.
On August 15, 2022, the IRT met on-site to evaluate the site conditions and see the results of the July 2021
repairs. At this meeting the IRT requested that KCI add live stakes to the outer bend areas that were repaired.
Approximately 150 black willow (Salix nigra) live stakes were planted in these outer bends on April 18,
2023. While no areas of thick invasives were noted, there were scattered individuals of Chinese privet,
mainly in areas of the site that had existing forest that were not cleared during construction. Invasives on
site were treated on June 15, 2023 by mechanical cutting and spraying the stumps with herbicide. KCI will
continue to monitor the site for invasives and any other threats to project success.

The site boundaries were inspected on December 18, 2023 and no areas of encroachment were noted. Small
trees have fallen on the fence in several of the areas along the boundary north of T6, but these have since
been removed and have not damaged the fence significantly. No other areas of damage to the fence were
noted.

In IRT field review meeting was conducted for the above referenced project on August 15, 2022,
starting around 1:30pm. The site was damp from a previous rain and the weather was mild and
slightly overcast. The group walked most of the restoration portions of T6 and UTHC3. We also
drove to the top of the site where we walked T1A and T1. The comments from the site walk are
listed below.
- Pay attention to invasives. There were no areas of thick invasives, but there were some
scattered in the easement around the areas of the site that had not been cleared for
construction.
- In some portions of the buffer, the sycamores are the most notable tree. Watch the
diversity data from the veg plots and supplement if necessary.
- Take photos of the crossings, from the stream and include those in future monitoring
reports.
- Overall, the site is well vegetated with thick herbaceous vegetation. Some areas of
Priority 2 restoration have less vegetation on the floodplain/benches. Watch those areas
for future vegetation vigor.
- A couple of structures were found to be piping. Pay attention to those to make sure the
structures are still maintaining function and not degrading.
- Some of the previously repaired areas from flood damage were lacking in live stakes.
KCI will add live stakes to those areas during this upcoming dormant season.
- There was a previous encroachment area near the bottom of T1, where the landowner had
driven inside the easement as short cut between two gates instead of going outside of the
easement. We checked this area during the site walk and it did not appear that this was
still an issue, but we will continue to pay attention to this area and document any future
encroachments.
These comments were all discussed at the site walk and this meeting memo will be included in
the MY03 monitoring report. Generally, the site was viewed positively, with the stream and
buffers all looking healthy and functioning.
The meeting ended around 3pm.
