Good afternoon Kristi,
This correspondence is in reference to the monitoring report and credit release request submitted for the WEI Catawba 01 Umbrella Mitigation Bank, Double Rock Mitigation Site, Action
ID SAW-2020-01532. The purpose of this letter is to transmit comments provided by the NC Interagency Review Team (NCIRT) during the review of the monitoring report and to confirm the
annual credit release. The review of the annual monitoring report followed procedures outlined in Section 332.8(o)(9) of the Mitigation Rule. The comments listed below were provided
by the NCIRT during this process. While it is not necessary to provide a response to specific comments at this time, please be sure to address the issues raised in future monitoring
report submittals.
Andrew Friedman-Herring, NCDWR
1. Overall, DWR agrees that this site appears to be in good condition and on trajectory.
2. The successfully repaired stream banks on Randall Tributary and Elk Shoals Creek are noted. However, no photos of the repaired sites are included in the report. Please make sure to
include photos of any area of adaptive management when it is repaired.
3. The vegetation data in Appendix B appears to be missing vegetation plot height and vigor data, despite being referenced in Section 2.1. Please make sure to include this data in all
monitoring reports.
4. Photo points 8, 9, and 13 appear to be capturing the areas above and below the internal easement crossings but do not include the actual crossings or structures themselves. Please
make sure that all internal easement crossings with structures such as fords or culverts are captured in photos from both upstream and downstream.
5. If possible, please include dates of Asian Spiderwort treatments. Based on the report, spiderwort was treated in MY1, but in various photographs from 10/25/23 there is still significant
coverage (ex- PP12). It would be helpful to understand the timeline of events and whether herbicide applications occurred before or after the stream photographs.
Steve Kichefski, USACE
1. Overall site seems on track.
2. The referencing of previous comments from the MY0 and site visit review are appreciated. Please continue to include/track previous comments and problem areas in
monitoring reports. Provide an update on the bank repair areas in MY2.
3. Gage recording and physical documentation of bankfull events noted although wracking was difficult to see in some of the photos.
4. Low species counts in vegetation plots 3 & 4 were noted and hopefully does not represent lower species diversity over a broader area. If any future supplemental
planting is needed it is good to note which species are dominating so that variation can be included.
Based on our review of the monitoring report and the results of the NCIRT review, we confirm that you have satisfied requirements included in the approved banking instrument and mitigation
plan for this site. Accordingly, with this correspondence we confirm the release of credits as shown on the table below and on the attached credit release schedule. The District leger
on the Regulatory In-lieu Fee and Bank Information Tracking System has also been updated to reflect this transaction.

2. The referencing of previous comments from the MY0 and site visit review are appreciated. Please continue
to include/track previous comments and problem areas in monitoring reports. Provide an update on the
bank repair areas in MY2.
3. Gage recording and physical documentation of bankfull events noted although wracking was difficult to see
in some of the photos.
4. Low species counts in vegetation plots 3 & 4 were noted and hopefully does not represent lower species
diversity over a broader area. If any future supplemental planting is needed it is good to note which species
are dominating so that variation can be included.
Based on our review of the monitoring report and the results of the NCIRT review, we confirm that you have satisfied
