Little Pine Creek II Restoration Project 
FINAL Mitigation Plan Addendum  Page 1 

1.0 Project Background 
Wildlands Engineering (Wildlands) is completing a design update for the Little Pine II Restoration Design‐
Bid‐Build Project for the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality ‐ Division of Mitigation 
Services (DMS).  This project will include restoration of approximately 3,362 existing linear feet (LF) of 
Little Pine Creek and three unnamed tributaries (UTs) to Little Pine Creek, enhancement of 1.20 acres of 
wetlands, and preservation 4.42 acres of wetlands.   
This report functions as an addendum to the approved 2008 Little Pine Creek Restoration Plan (Ward 
Consulting Engineers, Inc., 2008), herein referred to as the 2008 Plan.  Where appropriate, this 
document references relevant sections of that report.  This addendum is intended only to verify existing 
baseline information provided in the 2008 Plan and provide necessary background information to 
support the updated design approach.  Site maps are included with the original restoration plan as 
Figure 1. 
2.0 Restoration Project Goals and Objectives 
The Project is located in the Little River & Brush Creek Local Watershed Plan (LWP) planning area.  
Planning documents for that LWP can be found at:  http://portal.ncdenr.org/web/eep/rbrps/new.  The 
project is located in Hydrologic Unit (HU) 05050001030030 which was identified as a Targeted Local 
Watershed in DMS’s 2009 New River Basin Restoration Priority (RBRP) plan and is identified in the Little 
River & Brush Creek LWP Project Atlas as sites LPC1‐04 (stream) and LPC1‐W10 (wetland). 
DMS developed an LWP for the 111‐square mile drainage area that included land use analysis, water 
quality monitoring and stakeholder input to identify problems with water quality, habitat and hydrology.  
The Little River watershed (HUC 05050001030030) and Brush Creek watershed (HUC 05050001030020) 
are characterized as primarily agricultural and mixed hardwood forest lands and Brush Creek has a 
history of habitat degradation issues due to embedded riffles and a lack of functional riparian areas.  
DMS completed the Little River & Brush Creek LWP in June 2007. 
The Little River & Brush Creek LWP identified the following major stressors in the watershed:  
unforested buffers that are heavily grazed; livestock access to streams; heavily eroded stream banks; 
land‐disturbing activities on steep slopes; and storm water runoff in and around the town of Sparta.  The 
LWP identified the Little Pine Creek II Restoration Project (LPC1‐04) as a stream restoration opportunity 
with the potential to improve water quality, habitat, and hydrology within the Brush Creek watershed.  
The primary goals of the Little Pine Creek II Restoration Project address multiple stressors identified in 
the LWP and described in Table 1.

3.0 Baseline Information –Project Site and Watershed Summary 
3.1 Watershed Historical Land Use and Development Trends 
The Little Pine Creek II watershed (Watershed) is located in a rural area approximately eight miles east 
of the Town of Sparta (refer to Figure 4 in the 2008 Plan).  Land use within the Watershed is historically 
rural and dominated by agriculture and forest.  A review of historical aerials from 1964, 1983, and 1998 
verified that land use on the project site and in the Watershed has remained relatively consistent for the 
past 50 years (historic aerial photos are provided in Appendix 13 of the 2008 Plan). 

Little Pine Creek II Restoration Project 
FINAL Mitigation Plan Addendum  Page 3 

There are no signs of impending land use changes or development pressure evident in the 
watershed.   Mr. Travis Dalton, the Alleghany County Planner, reviewed the Watershed conditions and, 
during a telephone interview, confirmed that the historic agricultural and timber production land uses in 
the Watershed are expected to continue for the foreseeable future with no indications of land use 
shifts.   No transportation projects or major roadway improvements are planned for the area (T. Dalton, 
personal communication, June 4, 2012).   
3.2 Watershed Assessment 
On June 15, 2012, Wildlands conducted a watershed reconnaissance visit to verify current land uses 
observed from the aerial photography and to identify potential stressors.  Consistent with information 
depicted in aerial photography, land use within the Watershed is predominantly timber and agricultural 
production.  Disturbed areas within the Watershed consist of large (several acres) fields with recent 
farm waste applications or recent tillage for new crop installation.  A few single‐family homes have been 
built in the past five years, but there is no evidence of significant new development.  No areas of 
widespread floodplain or overland erosion were noted within the Watershed.  Stream banks throughout 
the Watershed are eroded and appear to be the primary source of fine grain sediment to the 
downstream reaches.   
The Watershed perimeter closely follows Glade Valley Road, Glade Creek School Road, and Barrett Road 
(as shown in Figure 4 of the 2008 Restoration Plan).  Topography can be described as somewhat hilly to 
gently rolling.  There are no impoundments that significantly affect hydrology or sediment transport in 
the Watershed.  Culverts at various road crossings throughout the Watershed influence sediment 
transport at isolated locations.  Channel substrate ranges from cobble to fines.  
4.0 Baseline Information – Review of Previously Collected Stream Existing Conditions  
On‐site existing conditions assessments were conducted by Wildlands in June 2013.  The intent of the 
existing conditions assessment effort was to verify previous, detailed surveys completed for the 2008 
Plan and to identify any geomorphic changes or apparent disturbances that had occurred since that 
date.   
4.1 Stream Alignment Verification 
Wildlands was unable to recover existing control points, therefore review of the existing topographic 
survey was largely qualitative.  Wildlands compared the existing stream alignments and floodplain areas 
to the 2008 survey during field assessments.  In general, the 2008 survey appears to be an accurate 
representation of the current site and stream condition.  Although stream banks have clearly continued 
to erode since 2008, the stream centerline or thalweg did not appear to have shifted significantly and 
depositional features within the channels were still located in the same approximate locations.   
4.2 Cross Section Resurvey Results 
As part of the survey verification effort, Wildlands also conducted additional surveys at four cross 
sections that were surveyed for the 2008 Plan.  The resurveyed cross sections included Little Pine Creek 
XS6 (located upstream of Glade Creek School Road), Little Pine Creek XS14 (located downstream of the 
road), Tributary A XS1, and Tributary C XS6.  Cross sections of Little Pine Creek and Tributary A were field 
located with a handheld GPS unit.  However, no spatial data were provided for Tributary C so Wildlands 
located the cross section using photographs and maps from the 2008 Plan.  Data from the additional 
survey efforts are provided in Appendix 1.  The locations of the project reaches and surveyed cross 
sections are shown in Section 12 on Plan Sheets 1 and 3 of the 2008 Plan, as well as on Figure 1 of this 

Little Pine Creek II Restoration Project 
FINAL Mitigation Plan Addendum  Page 4 

document.  The additional survey performed by Wildlands was not tied to grid, but was adjusted based 
on point elevations provided in the existing survey data.   
Based on a review of the additional survey data, it appears continued deposition has occurred on the 
bar features present on both Little Pine XS6 and Little Pine XS14.  Tributary A XS1 was noted as a riffle 
section during the 2008 survey; however, during Wildlands resurvey this area was noted as a pool.  
Because of this, Wildlands resurveyed the next downstream riffle to provide an additional comparison.  
For this cross section, the cross‐sectional area between the 2008 riffle survey and the 2013 riffle survey 
are similar.  A precise analysis of the Tributary C XS6 resurvey was not possible due to the uncertainty of 
the location of the new surveyed cross section as compared to the original surveyed in 2008.  However, 
the comparison of the two cross sections suggests that Tributary C has enlarged somewhat since 2008.  
Existing conditions data from the new cross sectional surveys are shown in Table 2. 
4.3 Bed Material Size Verification 
To verify the existing sediment distributions, Wildlands also conducted pebble count on Little Pine XS14 
and collected a sample from a nearby, well developed point bar.  Comparisons to the original particle 
size distributions indicate that significant changes in the bed material sizes have not occurred (Table 2).  
Originally, Little Pine Creek was characterized with a D50 of 59 which is near the top end of the coarse 
gravel size range.  The results of Wildland’s pebble counts indicate that the stream has a D50 of 72 
which is near the lower end of the small cobble size class range.

4.4 Bankfull Verification 
Bankfull stage indicators on Little Pine included flat depositional features and prominent breaks in slope.  
Bankfull stage was determined to be the top of bank on Tributary A.  Bankfull calls on Tributary C were 
difficult because the stream has been heavily manipulated, however, bankfull was approximated for 
classification purposes at a prominent break in slope.  Manning’s equation was applied to the surveyed 
cross‐sections to calculate an estimated bankfull discharge.  The results are presented in Table 3. 
Existing conditions bankfull area and discharge estimates were compared to drainage area and 
discharge estimates from two Little Pine II reference reaches described in the 2008 Plan, the two Little 
Pine III reference reaches described in the approved Mitigation Plan for the project (Wildlands 

Little Pine Creek II Restoration Project 
FINAL Mitigation Plan Addendum  Page 6 

Engineering, Inc., 2014), the North Carolina Mountain Regional Curve (Harman et. al., 2000), the 
regional flood frequency relationships developed for the Little River and Laurel Branch Local Watershed 
Plans (LWP) (WK Dickson & Co., Inc., 2005), and the revised NC Rural Regional Curve (Walker, 
unpublished).  It should be noted that the study area for the LWP includes the project site.  The Little 
River and Laurel Branch LWP regional flood frequency curve was developed from analysis of three USGS 
gages in North Carolina and five USGS gages in southern Virginia. Section 4 of the LWP describes, in 
detail, the methodology and results. The analysis presented in the LWP shows that the regional flood 
frequency curve predicts lower discharge values per unit drainage area than other published regional 
curves applicable to the physiographic area. The results of each of these analyses for each of the project 
reaches are presented in Figure 2.   
Bankfull discharge estimates developed with Manning’s equation for the project reaches were regressed 
against drainage area and plotted with discharge‐drainage area relations for the other hydrologic 
methods described above (Figure 2).  The Manning’s equation discharge estimates plot below the North 
Carolina Mountain regional curve and slightly above the 1.8‐year recurrence interval discharges from 
the Little River and Laurel Branch LWP regional flood frequency curve.  The discharge – drainage area 
relation for Meadow Fork (also estimated with Manning’s equation), a reference reach of similar 
drainage area, also plots near the 1.8‐year LWP discharge.  This suggests that the regional hydrology 
may be better represented by the LWP regional flood frequency curve than the mountain regional 
curve. 
4.5 Design Discharge 
Based on the results of the analysis presented in Section 4.4 and Figure 2, design discharges were 
selected for the Little Pine Creek reaches that were lower than the design discharges documented in the

5.0 Baseline Information – Review of Existing Wetland Conditions 
Wildlands conducted a limited review of existing jurisdictional wetlands (Wetlands 2A, 2B, and 3) which 
were delineated and mapped by the previous consultant using guidance from the United States Army 
Corps of Engineers (USACE) 1987 Wetland Delineation Manual.  Previously delineated Wetland 1 wasn’t 
reviewed because it’s no longer in the project area.  A re‐delineation was performed by Wildlands on 
April 27, 2015.  The re‐delineation was fairly consistent with the previous delineation with minor 
deviations including the addition of a new Wetland 1 and the removal old Wetland 3.  Wetland 3 was 
removed due to a lack of hydric soils during the 2015 review.  Re‐delineated wetlands range in size from 
0.32 to 4.42 acres.  The wetlands exhibited areas of inundation, saturation within the upper 12 inches of 
the soil profile, drainage patterns, water stained leaves, and sediment deposits.  Low‐chroma soils 
within the wetlands ranged from 7.5YR 3/1 to 10YR 2/1 with redox concentrates of 5YR 4/6 to 7.5YR 3/4. 
Vegetation in Wetland 1 is primarily herbaceous and includes soft rush (Juncus effusus), sedges (Carex 
spp.), and purplestem aster (Symphyotrichum puniceum).  Wetlands 2A and 2B are primarily forested. 
Wetland 2A is primarily a white pine canopy with skunk cabbage (Symplocarpus foetidus), sedges, and 
soft rush common in the underlying herbaceous.  Canopy species within Wetland 2B include green ash 
(Fraxinus pennsylvanica), red maple (Acer rubrum), and tulip poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera).  Common 
understory species include elderberry (Sambucus canadensis), silky dogwood (Cornus amomum), 
spicebush (Lindera benzoin), and tag alder (Alnus serrulata).  Observed herbaceous species include skunk 
cabbage, jewelweed (Impatiens capensis), sedges, and soft rush.  Wetland 1 and Wetland 2A are 
proposed for enhancement credit.  Wetland data forms, which were submitted to the US Army Corps of  

Little Pine Creek II Restoration Project 
FINAL Mitigation Plan Addendum  Page 8 

Engineers for verification on June 29, 2015, are included in Appendix 2.  Wetland boundaries were field 
verified with the US Army Corps of Engineers on September 4, 2015.   
6.0 Reference Sites  
6.1 Reference Streams 
Reference reaches are one source of information in the development of design parameters. Most 
reference quality reaches in the North Carolina Mountains are in heavily wooded areas and the mature 
vegetation contributes greatly to their stability. In addition, reference reaches tend to be located in 
higher gradient valleys with smaller drainage areas that are less prone to past and present disturbance.  
For this project, two reference reaches from the 2008 Plan were utilized in combination with two 
reference reaches that were recently surveyed for the Little Pine Creek III Restoration Project.  Table 4 
provides a summary of the reference geomorphic parameters.  More information on the references 
reaches can be found in the 2008 Plan and in the approved 2014 Little Pine III Mitigation Plan.   
6.2 Reference Wetland 
Wetland 2B located along the lower portion of Little Pine Creek was identified as a reference condition 
wetland for the project site.  Wetland 2B is an undisturbed forested wetland proposed for 
preservation.  Using the North Carolina Wetland Assessment Method (NCWAM) and the observer’s best 
professional judgement, Wetland 2B classifies as a bottomland hardwood forest.  Dominant canopy 
species include red maple, green ash, and tulip poplar.  Primary understory species include elderberry, 
silky dogwood, spicebush, and tag alder.  The herbaceous vegetation is dominated by skunk 
cabbage.  Other common herbaceous species include jewelweed, sedges, and soft rush.

8.0 Project Site Mitigation Plan 
8.1 Stream Design  
The project includes stream restoration and preservation as well as wetland enhancement and 
preservation.  The specific proposed stream types are described below.  Stream types were selected 
based on the surrounding landscape, climate, watershed conditions, and natural vegetation 
communities.  Design parameters for each reach are shown in Tables 6a and 6b.  The conservation 
easement, which was laid out and recorded during the 2008 Plan design, established the project 
boundaries for this design update.  The proposed conceptual design and the existing conservation 
easement boundaries are depicted on Figure 3. 
Little Pine Creek Reaches 1, 2A, and 2B; Tributary A; Tributary B; and Tributary C will be constructed as a 
C type streams according to the Rosgen classification system (Rosgen, 1996).  Type C streams are slightly 
entrenched, meandering streams with well‐developed floodplains and gentle gradients of 2% or less.  
They occur within a wide range of valley types and are appropriate for the project landscape.  For Little 
Pine Reach 1, which begins at the upstream project boundary and ends at the Glade Creek School Road 
bridge, the existing conservation easement boundary lies either on or close to Little Pine Creek’s existing 
right top of bank from the upstream project boundary downstream 300 LF.  Approximately halfway 

Little Pine Creek II Restoration Project 
FINAL Mitigation Plan Addendum  Page 12 

down Reach 1, Wetland 1 is present in the left floodplain.  Little Pine Creek Reach 1 is designed between 
these two constraints with a meander belt width ratio at the lower end of the typical reference reach 
and design ratios. The design alignment falls well within design parameters and is expected to provide 
adequate lateral energy dissipation; however, instream bank structures including brush toe and root 
wad wrapping are proposed for installation on the outside meander banks to strengthen the bank toe 
throughout this reach as added insurance against scour prior to vegetation establishment.    
Downstream of the bridge, through the Murphy property, Little Pine Reach 2’s easement was 
established to closely meander with the 2008 Plan design.  The easement here is narrow and dictates 
the proposed stream alignment.  The design utilizes a compound bend to carry the stream through the 
Murphy property within the conservation easement provided.  Here as with upstream, the outside 
meander banks will be revetted with brush toe structures to strengthen the toe against scour prior to 
vegetation establishment.    
The morphologic design parameters as shown in Tables 6a and 6b for the project reaches fall within the 
ranges specified for C streams (Rosgen, 1996).  However, the specific values for the design parameters 
were selected based on designer experience and judgment and were verified with morphologic data 
from reference reach data sets.   
The designed channel slopes for the Little Pine Creek reaches range from approximately 0.4% to 1.5% (at 
the downstream end to connect back to the existing channel bed grade) with an overall reach slope of 
0.82%.  The design width to depth ratio for Reach 1 is 14 and the design width to depth ratio for Reach 2 
is 14.6.  Reach 1 is designed as Priority 2 restoration and a floodplain bench will be constructed along 
this entire reach.  Reach 2A is designed to fully reconnect with its existing floodplain (Priority 1).  In 
order to connect Reach 2B back to the existing channel bed grade at the downstream end, this reach is 
also designed as Priority 1 but will become slightly incised towards the tie‐in point.  This type of design 
will prevent the need for a Priority 2 with significant floodplain cut and a sudden rise in floodplain 
elevations at the tie‐in.  These reaches are all designed to have entrenchment ratios greater than 2.2.  
The design sinuosity for Reach 1 is 1.09 and the design sinuosity for Reach 2A and 2B is 1.23.   
The design reaches for Tributaries A and B are very short reaches that connect perennial streams to 
Little Pine II.  The design slopes of these reaches are 1.7% and 0.6%, respectively, and the design width 
to depth ratios are 13.2 and 14.2, respectively.  Both tributaries are designed to incise slightly in order to 
connect to the proposed bed elevation of Little Pine Creek.  This approach is the same as that described 
above for the downstream end of Little Pine Creek and is proposed for the same reasons.  Both 
tributaries are designed with a sinuosity of 1.09.   
Tributary C is a longer design reach that will meander through Wetland 2A and discharge to Little Pine 
Creek.  This design slope for this reach is 1.66 ft/ft, the design width to depth ratio is 13.7, and the 
design sinuosity is 1.23.  This stream will be constructed to have an entrenchment ratio greater than 2.2.  
The Priority 1 design connects Tributary C to its existing floodplain wetland.  Like the other reaches 
described above, this channel will become slightly incised at the downstream end to connect to the 
proposed bed of Little Pine Creek.  Three very small tributaries (D, E, and F) are also designed to connect 
to the new alignment of Little Pine Creek.  These tributaries are proposed for preservation credit.

8.2 Wetland Design 
The proposed stream and wetland restoration project includes three distinct riparian wetland zones 
referred to as Wetland 1, Wetland 2A, and Wetland 2B (Figure 3).  Wetland 1 is an area upstream of 
Glade Creek School Road.  This area is in an open pasture adjacent to Little Pine Creek and was 
previously used for cattle (though now it is fenced).  Wetland 1 is proposed for wetland enhancement 
and work done on this zone will primarily involve planting with native species.  Wetland 2A is located 

Little Pine Creek II Restoration Project 
FINAL Mitigation Plan Addendum  Page 15 

south of the road adjacent to Tributary C.  This wetland is currently partially forested with primarily 
white pine canopy and herbaceous plants such as skunk cabbage, sedges, and soft rush.  Portions of this 
wetland do not have tree canopy.  Work proposed on Wetland 2A includes planting of understory 
species under the canopy and planting native wetland tree species in the open areas.  Some of the pine 
trees will be harvested for use in the construction of the stream channels and these will be replaced 
with native wetland trees.  Wetland 2B is a fairly large bottomland hardwood forested wetland 
proposed for preservation.  This wetland will serve as the reference community for Wetlands 1 and 2A.  
Planting for the wetland enhancement zones is described in the following section. 
8.3 Wetland and Buffer Planting 
The target communities for the restored riparian buffer zones will be based on the following: 
 Reference conditions from forested areas within or near to the project site; 
 Native trees, appropriate for the physiographic setting, with proven success in early successional 
restoration sites; and 
 Vegetation listed for the community types in Guide to the Natural Communities of North Carolina 
(Schafale, 2012) likely to occur on the site. 
The natural community type for the conversion of the Little Pine Creek floodplain from pasture to 
forest is Montane Alluival Forest.   
8.4 Design Justification 
Based on assessments of the watershed and existing channels, the project design has been developed to 
correct system wide channel instability observed along Little Pine Creek and its tributaries caused by 
past livestock access, channelization, and lack of woody riparian vegetation.  The streams are actively 
eroding, and in the case of Little Pine Creek, the stream is cutting laterally at a fairly rapid pace.  The 
eroding stream banks are a major source of sediment to the project streams and downstream trout 
waters.  The buffer along much of the site’s stream length and portions of the wetland communities 
have been denuded.  Habitat within the streams is degraded due to lack of lack of floodplain vegetation 
for shading and cover and lack of diverse habitats within the channel.  The active erosion will not cease 
without intervention and, in this case, full restoration is warranted to stabilize the system and improve 
aquatic habitat.  In addition, the natural wetland and floodplain vegetation communities can be greatly 
improved through planting and protecting the site with a conservation easement.   
8.5 Sediment Transport Analysis 
To begin an analysis of sediment supply a watershed assessment must be performed.  Wildlands staff 
performed a watershed reconnaissance, reviewed a series of aerial photographs dating back to 1964, 
and reviewed land cover data in order to assess the current condition of the watersheds and identify 
time periods when the watersheds underwent changes that would affect the sediment load such as 
development or land clearing.  As previously described, land cover within the watersheds has remained 
relatively consistent since 1964 (see Section 3 for more information).  During the period between the 
summer of 2012 and the summer of 2013, Wildlands visited the project site frequently to conduct 
existing conditions surveys and perform design analysis.  Depositional features observed within the 
project streams remained relatively stable with little or no change in dimension or location during that 
period.  Wildlands also conducted a review of the 2008 detailed topographic survey of Little Pine Creek 
upstream of the project site in 2013, approximately five years after the date of the survey.  Bars and 
islands noted on the survey were still evident in the field and appeared to be to the same dimensions 

Little Pine Creek II Restoration Project 
FINAL Mitigation Plan Addendum  Page 16 

and elevations as they were when originally surveyed.  Based on Wildlands review of onsite sediment 
deposition patterns and the upstream survey, it appears that the Project streams have relatively low 
sediment supplies.  Low sediment supply channels are less prone to morphologic adjustment and, 
therefore, are less risky restoration projects.  However, to further verify the stability of the proposed 
design, Wildlands performed a sediment transport analysis on Little Pine Creek described in the 
following sections.   
8.5.1 Competence Analysis 
A competence analysis was performed for each of the design reaches to compare shear stresses along 
the channel at the design bankfull discharge with the size distribution of the bed material.  Standard 
equations were used to calculate the critical dimensionless shear stress needed to move the bed 
material and the depth and slope combination needed to produce that stress for Little Pine Creek.  The 
shear stress calculated with this method for Little Pine Creek was also verified with a HEC‐RAS model.  
The results of the competence analysis for Little Pine Creek indicate that the proposed channel will have 
the shear stress to move the majority of the larger particles supplied to the channel during bankfull 
events.  It also indicates that the design depth and slope are adequate to move the bed material.  
However, grade control will be used to ensure that downcutting does not occur after construction.  This 
analysis is not appropriate for very small streams and was not performed in the tributaries.    
During the onsite existing conditions survey, only one well developed sediment bar was determined to 
be adequately built to represent transport at a bankfull event.  This bar was present on the interior of an 
unstable meander bend.  Large branches from a tree rooted to the outside of the bend were 
overhanging the bar and could have potentially acted as an obstruction during high flow events, 
influencing the material which deposited on the bar.  The two largest particles on the lower third of this 
bar were 183 mm and 104 mm, respectively.  See Appendix 1 for the bar distribution and photos of the 
bar and the tree overhang (located on Page 2 of the Photo Log in Appendix 1).  Wildlands conducted 
pavement/subpavement samples on the same stream just downstream on the DMS owned Little Pine III 
project.  In order to determine whether the tree branches influence the deposition on the bar, 
Wildlands reviewed the subpavement samples taken from the downstream project.  The largest 
subpavement material on the downstream project was 113 mm, which is within the range of larger 
material found on the bar on the project site.  Therefore, the bar sample taken on the project site was 
determined to be a reliable indicator of transport at bankfull flow.

8.5.2 Capacity Analysis 
A capacity analysis is necessary to determine if a stream has the ability to pass the sediment load 
supplied by the watershed.  This analysis was done using the sediment transport capacity hydraulic 
design module in HEC‐RAS. HEC‐RAS models were built for existing and proposed bankfull conditions of 
Little Pine Creek. The sediment transport capacity module uses the hydraulic model along with bed 
material data to estimate the sediment load that the modeled stream can move at a bankfull discharge. 
For this analysis, the Meyer‐Peter Muller transport equation was selected based on consideration of the 
channel size and slope, bed material size ranges, and channel velocities.  For information on this and 
other equations please consult the HEC‐RAS user’s manual (HEC, 2010). The results for the existing 
channel and proposed channel analyses are shown in Table 8.

Little Pine Creek II Restoration Project 
FINAL Mitigation Plan Addendum  Page 18 

The results in Table 8 indicate that sediment transport capacity for Little Pine Creek will increase 
somewhat when the proposed design is implemented. These results indicate that aggradation is not 
likely a problem.  As discussed above, the upstream watershed has remained stable for decades and is 
not supplying significant amount of sediment.  If the watershed supply remains static and the model 
results are accurate, the system will be at a slight risk for degradation.  Stream power, in‐stream 
velocities, energy slope, shear stress, bed and bank resistance and turbulence were considered during 
the design process and grade control structures and constructed riffles were incorporated and 
manipulated to manage stream power and reduce or eliminate the potential for degradation and 
incision following construction activities. Excess stream power over substantial distances nor 
degradation are anticipated following construction. Grade control structures are described in Section 8.6 
8.6 Project Implementation Summary 
The stream and wetland restoration will be constructed as described in this section.  A full set of 
preliminary design plans is included with this mitigation plan for review. 
8.6.1 Stream Restoration Grading and Structure Installation 
Stream restoration is proposed for all project reaches.  Most of this stream restoration work will be 
Priority 1 restoration.  Priority 1 restoration will include raising the bed of the channel so that bankfull 
stage is at the existing floodplain elevation.  New channel will be excavated for much of the restored 
reaches, but in some locations the new stream will cross or run within the existing channel.  Little Pine 
Creek Reach 1 will be constructed as Priority 2 restoration meaning that a floodplain bench will be cut at 
a lower elevation than the original floodplain.  The downstream end of each project reach will become 
slightly incised in order to tie the proposed bed into the bed grade of the receiving stream.  This will 
eliminate the need to cut priority 2 benches along these reaches.   

For all project reaches, the cross sections will be constructed to accommodate the design bankfull 
discharge, the pattern will be reconstructed so that the channel meanders through the floodplain, and 
riffle‐pool bed morphology will be reestablished.  The cross‐sectional dimensions of the design channels 
will be constructed to flood the adjacent floodplain and existing wetlands frequently. The reconstructed 
channel banks will be built with stable side slopes, planted with native materials, and matted for long‐
term stability.  The slightly meandering planform of the channels will be built to mimic natural mountain 
streams.  Pools will generally be built in the outside of the meander bends and riffles will be built in the 
straight sections of channel between meanders.  Various types of constructed riffles have been designed 
for the restoration reaches to provide grade control throughout the entire length of the project reaches.  
Constructed riffles will incorporate native stone and alluvium and, in many cases, woody materials.  
Other grade control structures such as j‐hooks and cross vanes will also be installed at certain points in 
Little Pine Creek.  On‐site alluvial and excavated rock will be used to construct riffles and in‐stream 
structures.  Details of each type of constructed riffle are included with the draft plans.  Wood structures 
will also be incorporated into the restoration reaches including root wads and brush toe for bank 
protection and angled log drops.  Details for each of these structures are also included with the draft 
plans.  Locations of all proposed structures can be seen of the plan and profile sheets. 
8.6.2 Natural Plant Community Restoration 
As a final stage of construction, riparian stream buffers and wetland enhancement zones will be planted 
with native trees and herbaceous plants. Wetland 2B located along the lower portion of Little Pine Creek 
was identified as a reference condition wetland for the project site and best classifies as a montane 
alluvial forest system.  The woody and herbaceous species selected for the planting plan are based on 

Little Pine Creek II Restoration Project 
FINAL Mitigation Plan Addendum  Page 19 

this community type, observations of the occurrence of species in the reference site buffers, and best 
professional judgment on species establishment and anticipated site conditions in the early years 
following project implementation. Enhancement zones will be planted with canopy species in areas 
where no canopy currently exists.  In areas where the canopy is present, understory species will be 
planted to supplement the existing community.  Some of the white pines will be removed from Wetland 
2A to use for woody material in the construction of the stream.   

Individual tree and shrub species will be planted within the project easement including stream banks, 
floodplains zones, and wetland enhancement areas. These species will be planted as bare root 
(floodplain zones and wetland enhancement zones) and live stakes (stream banks) and will provide 
additional stabilization to the outsides of constructed meander bends and side slopes. Juncus and carex 
plugs will be installed at the toe of banks of the restoration reaches. Species planted as bare roots will 
be spaced at an initial density of 520 plants per acre (12 feet by 6 feet spacing). Live stakes will be 
planted on channel banks at 3‐foot spacing and point bars will not be planted with live stakes. Targeted 
densities after monitoring year 3 are 320 woody stems per acre. Juncus and carex species plug spacing 
will be three to five feet.  Permanent herbaceous seed will be placed on stream banks and bench areas 
and all disturbed areas within the project easement. The stream banks will be planted with live stakes. 
The riparian buffers and wetland areas will be planted with bare root seedlings. Proposed permanent 
herbaceous species are shown in the plan set. 
9.0 Maintenance Plan 
The site shall be monitored on a regular basis and a physical inspection of the site shall be conducted a 
minimum of once per year throughout the post‐construction monitoring period until performance 
standards are met.  These site inspections may identify site components and features that require 
routine maintenance.  Routine maintenance should be expected most often in the first two years 
following site construction and may include the following:

Table 9.  Maintenance Plan 
Little Pine Creek II Stream & Wetland Restoration Project 
Component/Feature Maintenance through project close‐out 
Stream 
Routine channel maintenance and repair activities may include chinking of in‐
stream structures to prevent piping, securing of loose coir matting, and 
supplemental installations of live stakes and other target vegetation along the 
channel.  Areas where storm water and floodplain flows intercept the channel 
may also require maintenance to prevent bank failures and head‐cutting.  
Beaver activity will be monitored and beaver dams on project streams will 
typically be removed during the monitoring period by a contracted entity to 
allow for bank stabilization and stream development outside of this type of 
influence. 
Wetland 
Routine wetland maintenance and repair activities may include supplemental 
installations of live stakes and other target vegetation within the wetland.  
Areas where floodplain flows intersect the wetland may also require 
maintenance to prevent scour.   
Vegetation 
Vegetation shall be maintained to ensure the health and vigor of the targeted 
community.  Routine vegetation maintenance and repair activities may 
include supplemental planting, pruning, mulching, and fertilizing.  Exotic 
invasive plant species or excessive native volunteer tree growth that 
threatens the viability of planted species shall be controlled by mechanical 
and/or chemical methods.  Any vegetation control requiring herbicide 
application will be performed in accordance with NC Department of 
Agriculture (NCDA) rules and regulations.  
Site boundary 
Site boundaries shall be identified in the field to ensure clear distinction 
between the mitigation site and adjacent properties.  Boundaries may be 
identified by fence, marker, bollard, post, tree‐blazing, or other means as 
allowed by site conditions and/or conservation easement.  Boundary markers 
disturbed, damaged, or destroyed will be repaired and/or replaced on an as‐
needed basis.   
Ford and Culvert Crossings 
Permanent crossings within the site may be maintained only as allowed by 
Conservation Easement or existing easement, deed restrictions, rights of way, 
or corridor agreements.   

Any identified high priority problem areas will be visually monitored and remedial actions will be 
discussed with DMS staff to determine a plan of action.  A remedial action plan will be submitted if 
maintenance is required. 
10.0 Performance Standards 
The stream restoration performance criteria for the project site will follow approved performance 
criteria presented in the NCDMS Mitigation Plan Template (version 2.1, 09/01/2011), NCDMS Annual 
Monitoring Report Format, Data Requirements, and Content Guidance (April 2015), and the Stream 
Mitigation Guidelines issued in April 2003 by the USACE and NCDWQ.  Annual monitoring and semi‐
annual site visits will be conducted to assess the condition of the finished project.  The stream 
restoration sections of the project will be assigned specific performance criteria components for 
hydrology, vegetation, and morphology.  The wetland enhancement sections will be assigned specific 
performance criteria for vegetation. Performance criteria will be evaluated throughout the five year 
post‐construction monitoring.  If all performance criteria have been successfully met and two bankfull

events have occurred in separate years during the five year period, DMS or monitoring consultant may 
propose to terminate stream and/or vegetation monitoring pending little to no prevalent invasive 
species issues are occurring. An outline of the performance criteria components follows. An outline of 
the performance criteria components follows. 
10.1 Streams 
Dimension   
Riffle cross sections on the restoration reaches should be stable and should show little change in 
bankfull area, maximum depth ratio, and width‐to‐depth ratio. Per NCDMS guidance, bank height ratios 
shall not exceed 1.2 for restored channels to be considered stable. For restored, meandering streams, 
such as Rosgen C and E‐type streams, entrenchment ratios shall be at least 2.2.  All riffle cross sections 
should fall within the parameters defined for channels of the appropriate Rosgen stream type. If any 
changes do occur, these changes will be evaluated to assess whether the stream channel is showing 
signs of instability. Indicators of instability include a vertically incising stream bed or eroding channel 
banks. Changes in the channel that indicate a movement toward stability or enhanced habitat include a 
decrease in the width‐to‐depth ratio in meandering channels or an increase in pool depth. Remedial 
action would not be taken if channel changes indicate a movement toward stability.  
In order to assess channel dimension success, seven permanent cross sections will be installed on Little 
Pine Creek, and one per 20 bankfull widths along tributaries on restoration reaches, with riffle and pool 
sections in proportion to NCDMS guidance.  Each cross section will be permanently marked with pins to 
establish its location. Cross section surveys will include points measured at all breaks in slope, including 
top of bank, bankfull, edge of water, and thalweg.  If moderate bank erosion is observed within 
permanent pool cross sections during the monitoring period, an array of bank pins will be installed in 
the permanent cross section where erosion is occurring for reaches with a bankfull width of greater than 
three feet.  Bank pins will be installed on the outside bend of the cross section in at least three locations 
(one in upper third of the pool, one at the permanent cross section, and one in the lower third of the 
pool).  Bank pins will be monitored by measuring exposed rebar and maintaining pins flush to bank to 
capture bank erosion progression.  Annual cross section and bank pin survey (if applicable) will be 
conducted during the five year monitoring period. 
Profile and Pattern   
Longitudinal profile data for the stream restoration reaches should show that the bedform features are 
remaining stable. The riffles should be steeper and shallower than the pools, while the pools should be 
deep with nearly flat water surface slopes. The relative percentage of riffles and pools should not 
change significantly from the design parameters. Adjustments in length and slope of run and glide 
features are expected and will not be considered a sign of instability. The longitudinal profile should 
show that the bank height ratio remains very near to 1.0 for the majority of the restoration reaches.   
Substrate  
Substrate materials in the restoration reaches should indicate a progression towards or the maintenance 
of coarser materials in the riffle features and smaller particles in the pool features.   
A reach‐wide pebble count will be performed in each restoration reach each year for classification 
purposes.  A pebble count will be performed at each surveyed riffle to characterize the pavement.   
10.2  Hydrology 
Stream  

Little Pine Creek II Restoration Project 
FINAL Mitigation Plan Addendum  Page 22 

Two bankfull flow events must be documented on the restoration reaches within the five‐year monitoring 
period.  The two bankfull events must occur in separate years.  Stream monitoring will continue until 
success criteria in the form of two bankfull events in separate years have been documented.   
Bankfull events will be documented using photographs and either a crest gage or a pressure transducer, 
as appropriate for site conditions.  The selected measurement device will be installed in the stream 
within a surveyed riffle cross section.  The device will be checked at each site visit to determine if a 
bankfull event has occurred.  Photographs will also be used to document the occurrence of debris lines 
and sediment deposition. 
10.3 Vegetation 
The final vegetative success criteria will be the survival of 260 planted stems per acre in the riparian 
corridor at the end of the required monitoring period (year five).  The interim measure of vegetative 
success for the site will be the survival of at least 320 planted stems per acre at the end of the third 
monitoring year.  The extent of invasive species coverage will also be monitored and controlled as 
necessary during year 1 post construction, then as needed throughout the required monitoring period 
(five years).    
Vegetation monitoring plots will be installed across the restoration site to measure the survival of the 
planted trees.  The number of monitoring quadrants required will based on the NCDMS monitoring 
guidance documents.  Vegetation monitoring will occur in the fall. 
10.4  Other Parameters 
Photo Reference Stations 
Photographs will be taken once a year to visually document stability for five years following 
construction. Permanent markers will be established and located with GPS equipment so that the same 
locations and view directions on the site are photographed each year. Photos will be used to monitor 
restoration reaches as well as vegetation plots.   
Longitudinal reference photos will be established at the tail of riffles approximately every 300 LF along 
the channel by taking a photo looking upstream and downstream.  Cross sectional photos will be taken 
of each permanent cross section looking upstream and downstream.  Reference photos will also be 
taken for each of the vegetation plots.  Representative digital photos of each permanent photo point, 
cross section and vegetation plot will be taken on the same day that the stream and vegetation 
assessments are conducted.  The photographer will make every effort to consistently maintain the same 
area in each photo over time.  
Photographs should illustrate the site’s vegetation and morphological stability on an annual basis.  Cross 
section photos should demonstrate no excessive erosion or degradation of the banks.  Longitudinal 
photos should indicate the absence of persistent bars within the channel or vertical incision.  Grade 
control structures should remain stable.  Deposition of sediment on the bank side of vane arms is 
preferable.  Maintenance of scour pools on the channel side of vane arms is expected.   
Visual Assessments 
Visual assessments will be performed along stream reaches on a semi‐annual basis during the five year 
monitoring period.  Problem areas will be noted such as channel instability (i.e. lateral and/or vertical 
instability, instream structure failure/instability and/or piping, head cuts), vegetation health (e.g. low 
stem density, vegetation mortality, invasive species or encroachment), beaver activity, or livestock 
access.  Areas of concern will be mapped and photographed accompanied by a written description in the 

Little Pine Creek II Restoration Project 
FINAL Mitigation Plan Addendum  Page 23 

annual report.  Problem areas with be re‐evaluated during each subsequent visual assessment.  Should 
remedial actions be required, recommendations will be provided in the annual monitoring report. 
11.0 Monitoring Plan 
Using the NCDMS Baseline Monitoring Report Template (02/2014), a baseline monitoring document and 
as‐built record drawings of the project will be developed within 60 days of the completion of planting 
and monitoring device installation on the site.  Complete monitoring reports will be prepared annually in 
the fall and submitted to NCDMS using the NCDMS Annual Monitoring Report Format, Data 
Requirements, and Content Guidance (April 2015). The monitoring report shall provide a project data 
chronology that will facilitate an understanding of project status and trends, population of NCDMS 
databases for analysis, research purposes, and assist in decision making regarding close‐out. The 
monitoring period will extend five years beyond completion of construction or until performance criteria 
have been met. All survey will be tied to grid.   
11.1 Site Specific Monitoring 
Project monitoring requirements are listed in more detail in Table 10.  Approximate locations of the 
proposed vegetation plots and cross section monitoring components are illustrated in Figure 4.

1. Pattern will be collected during as‐built baseline monitoring survey only, unless observations indicate lack of lateral stability. 
2. Entire profile will be surveyed on an annual basis for restoration and enhancement level 1 streams since the proposed stream 
lengths are less than 3000 LF  
3. Crest gages and/or transducers will be inspected during semi‐annual site visits, evidence of bankfull events will be documented 
with a photo when possible.  Transducers will be set to record stage once every two hours.  Device will be inspected and 
downloaded semi‐annually.  
4. One wetland gage will be placed in Wetland 1 and one wetland gage will be placed in Wetland 2A.   
5. The size of individual quadrants will be 100 square meters for woody tree species and shrubs. Vegetation assessments will be 
conducted following the Carolina Vegetation Survey (CVS) Level 2 Protocol for Recording Vegetation (2006). 
6. Locations of exotic and nuisance vegetation will be mapped. 
7. Locations of fence damage, vegetation damage, boundary encroachments, etc. will be mapped. 
12.0 Long‐Term Management Plan 
Upon approval for close‐out by the Interagency Review Team (IRT) the site will be transferred to the 
NCDEQ Division of Natural Resource Planning and Conservation’s Stewardship Program.  This party shall 
be responsible for periodic inspection of the site to ensure that restrictions required in the conservation 
easement or the deed restriction document(s) are upheld.  Endowment funds required to uphold 
easement and deed restrictions shall be negotiated prior to site transfer to the responsible party. 

Little Pine Creek II Restoration Project 
FINAL Mitigation Plan Addendum  Page 25 

The NCDEQ Division of Natural Resource Planning and Conservation’s Stewardship Program currently 
houses DMS stewardship endowments within the non‐reverting, interest‐bearing Conservation Lands 
Stewardship Endowment Account.  The use of funds from the Endowment Account is governed by North 
Carolina General Statue GS 113A‐232(d)(3).  Interest gained by the endowment fund may be used only 
for the purpose of stewardship, monitoring, stewardship administration, and land transaction costs, if 
applicable.  The NCDEQ Stewardship Program intends to manage the account as a non‐wasting 
endowment.  Only interest generated from the endowment funds will be used to steward the 
compensatory mitigation sites.  Interest funds not used for those purposes will be re‐invested in the 
Endowment Account to offset losses due to inflation. 
13.0 Adaptive Management Plan 
Upon completion of site construction DMS will implement the post‐construction monitoring protocols 
previously defined in this document.  Project maintenance will be performed as described previously in 
this document.  If, during the course of annual monitoring it is determined the site’s ability to achieve 
site performance standards are jeopardized, DMS will notify the USACE of the need to develop a Plan of 
Corrective Action.  The Plan of Corrective Action may be prepared using in‐house technical staff or may 
require engineering and consulting services.  Once the Corrective Action Plan is prepared and finalized 
DMS will: 
 Notify the USACE as required by the Nationwide 27 permit general conditions. 
 Revise performance standards, maintenance requirements, and monitoring requirements as 
necessary and/or required by the USACE. 
 Obtain other permits as necessary. 
 Implement the Corrective Action Plan. 
 Provide the USACE a Record Drawing of Corrective Actions.  This document shall depict the 
extent and nature of the work performed. 
14.0 Financial Assurances 
Pursuant to Section IV H and Appendix III of the Division of Mitigation Service’s In‐Lieu Fee Instrument 
dated July 28, 2010, the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality has provided the US Army 
Corps of Engineers Wilmington District with a formal commitment to fund projects to satisfy mitigation 
requirements assumed by DMS.  This commitment provides financial assurance for all mitigation 
projects implemented by the program.

1. The Corps of Engineers believes that there may be jurisdictional waters of the
United States on the subject site, and the permit applicant or other affected party
who requested this preliminary JD is hereby advised of his or her option to
request and obtain an approved jurisdictional determination (JD) for that site.
Nevertheless, the permit applicant or other person who requested this
preliminary JD has declined to exercise the option to obtain an approved JD in
this instance and at this time.
2. In any circumstance where a permit applicant obtains an individual permit, or
a Nationwide General Permit (NWP) or other general permit verification requiring
"pre -construction notification" (PCN), or requests verification for a non -reporting
NWP or other general permit, and the permit applicant has not requested an
approved JD for the activity, the permit applicant is hereby made aware of the
following: (1) the permit applicant has elected to seek a permit authorization
based on a preliminary JD, which does not make an official determination of
jurisdictional waters; (2) that the applicant has the option to request an approved
JD before accepting the terms and conditions of the permit authorization, and
that basing a permit authorization on an approved JD could possibly result in less
compensatory mitigation being required or different special conditions; (3) that
the applicant has the right to request an individual permit rather than accepting
the terms and conditions of the NWP or other general permit authorization; (4)
that the applicant can accept a permit authorization and thereby agree to comply
with all the terms and conditions of that permit, including whatever mitigation
requirements the Corps has determined to be necessary; (5) that undertaking
any activity in reliance upon the subject permit authorization without requesting
an approved JD constitutes the applicant's acceptance of the use of the
preliminary JD, but that either form of JD will be processed as soon as is
practicable; (6) accepting a permit authorization (e.g., signing a proffered
individual permit) or undertaking any activity in reliance on any form of Corps
permit authorization based on a preliminary JD constitutes agreement that all
wetlands and other water bodies on the site affected in any way by that activity
are jurisdictional waters of the United States, and precludes any challenge to
such jurisdiction in any administrative or judicial compliance or enforcement
action, or in any administrative appeal or in any Federal court; and (7) whether
the applicant elects to use either an approved JD or a preliminary JD, that JD
will be processed as soon as is practicable. Further, an approved JD, a proffered
individual permit (and all terms and conditions contained therein), or individual
permit denial can be administratively appealed pursuant to 33 C.F.R. Part 331,
and that in any administrative appeal, jurisdictional issues can be raised (see 33
C.F.R. 331.5(a)(2)). If, during that administrative appeal, it becomes necessary
to make an official determination whether CWA jurisdiction exists over a site, or .
2

to provide an official delineation of jurisdictional waters on the site, the Corps will
provide an approved JD to accomplish that result, as soon as is practicable.
This preliminary JD finds that there "maybe" waters of the United States on the
subject project site, and identifies all aquatic features on the site that could be
affected by the proposed activity, based on the following information:

successors and assigns, receive the perpetual right of unlimited and repeated ingress and egress
to the Easement Area over the Property at reasonable times to undertake any activities to restore,
manage, maintain, enhance, and monitor the wetland and riparian resources of the Easement

fill, and prepare the soil, modification of the hydrology of the site, and installation of natural and
manmade materials as needed to direct in -stream, above ground, and subterraneous water flow.
IV. ENFORCEMENT AND REMEDIES
A. Enforcement. To accomplish the purposes of this Conservation Easement,
Grantee is allowed to prevent any activity within the Easement Area that is inconsistent with the
purposes of this Easement and to require the restoration of such areas or features of the Easement
Area that may have been damaged by such activity or use. Upon any breach of the terms of this
Conservation Easement by Grantor, their successors or assigns, that comes to the attention of the
Grantee, the Grantee shall, except as provided below, notify the Grantor, their successors or
assigns in writing of such breach. The Grantor shall have ninety (90) days after receipt of such
notice to correct the conditions constituting such breach. If the breach remains uncured after
ninety (90) days, the Grantee may enforce this Conservation Easement by appropriate legal
proceedings including damages, injunctive and other relief. The Grantee shall also have the
power and authority, consistent with its statutory authority: (a) to prevent any impairment of the
Easement Area by acts which may be unlawful or in violation of this Conservation Easement; (b)
to otherwise preserve or protect its interest in the Property; or (c) to seek damages from any
appropriate person or entity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Grantee reserves the immediate
right, without notice, to obtain a temporary restraining order, injunctive or other appropriate
relief if the breach of the term of this Conservation Easement is or would irreversibly or
otherwise materially impair the benefits to be derived from this Conservation Easement. The
Grantor and Grantee acknowledge that under such circumstances damage to the Grantee would
be irreparable and remedies at law will be inadequate. The rights and remedies of the Grantee
provided hereunder shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, all other rights and remedies
available to Grantee in connection with this Conservation Easement.
B. Inspection. The Grantee, its employees and agents, successors and assigns, have
the right, with reasonable notice, to enter the Easement Area over the Property at reasonable
times for the purpose of inspection to determine whether the Grantor, their successors or assigns
are complying with the terms, conditions and restrictions of this Conservation Easement.
C. Acts Beyond Grantor's Control. Nothing contained in this Conservation
Easement shall be construed to entitle Grantee to bring any action against Grantor, their
successors or assigns, for any injury or change in the Easement Area caused by third parties,
5

0332
1026 BK: 00332 PG: 1026
resulting from causes beyond the Grantor's control, including, without limitation, fire, flood,
storm, and earth movement, or from any prudent action taken in good faith by the Grantor under
emergency conditions to prevent, abate, or mitigate significant injury to life, damage to property
or harm to the Property resulting from such causes.
D. Costs of Enforcement. Beyond regular and typical monitoring, any costs
incurred by Grantee in enforcing the terms of this Conservation Easement against Grantor, their
successors or assigns, including, without limitation, any costs of restoration necessitated by
Grantor's acts or omissions in violation of the terms of this Conservation Easement, shall be
borne by Grantor.
E. No Waiver. Enforcement of this Easement shall be at the discretion of the
Grantee and any forbearance, delay or omission by Grantee to exercise its rights hereunder in the
event of any breach of any term set forth herein shall not be construed to be a waiver by Grantee.
V. MISCELLANEOUS
A. This instrument sets forth the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the
Conservation Easement and supersedes all prior discussions, negotiations, understandings or
agreements relating to the Conservation Easement. If any provision is found to be invalid, the
remainder of the provisions of the Conservation Easement, and the application of such provision
to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is found to be invalid, shall not be
affected thereby.
B. Any notices shall be sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested
to the parties at their addresses shown above or to other address(es) as either party establishes in
writing upon notification to the other.
C. Grantor shall notify Grantee in writing of the name and address and any party to
whom the Property or any part thereof is to be transferred at or prior to the time said transfer is
made. Grantor further agrees to make any subsequent lease, deed, or other legal instrument by
which any interest in the Property is conveyed subject to the Conservation Easement herein
created.
D. The Grantor and Grantee agree that the terms of this Conservation Easement shall
survive any merger of the fee and easement interests in the Property or any portion thereof.
E. This Conservation Easement may be amended, but only in writing signed by all
parties hereto, and provided such amendment does not affect the qualification of this
Conservation Easement or the status of the Grantee under any applicable laws, and is consistent
with the purposes of the Conservation Easement.
F. The parties recognize and agree that the benefits of this Conservation Easement
are in gross and assignable provided, however, that the Grantee hereby covenants and agrees,
that in the event it transfers or assigns this Conservation Easement, the organization receiving the
interest will be a qualified holder under N.C. Gen. Stat. § 121-34 et seq. and § 170(h) of the
Internal Revenue Code, and the Grantee further covenants and agrees that the terms of the
6

0332
1027
BK: 00332 PGA 027
transfer or assignment will be such that the transferee or assignee will be required to continue in
perpetuity the conservation purposes described in this document.

Grantee is allowed to prevent any activity within the Easement Area that is inconsistent with the
purposes of this Easement and to require the restoration of such areas or features of the Easement
Area that may have been damaged by such activity or use. Upon any breach of the terms of this

Grantee, the Grantee shall, except as provided below, notify the Grantor, their successors or
assigns in writing of such breach. The Grantor shall have ninety (90) days after receipt of such
notice to correct the conditions constituting such breach. If the breach remains uncured after

proceedings including damages, injunctive and other relief. The Grantee shall also have the
power and authority, consistent with its statutory authority: (a) to prevent any impairment of the

appropriate person or entity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Grantee reserves the immediate
right, without notice, to obtain a temporary restraining order, injunctive or other appropriate
relief if the breach of the term of this Conservation Easement is or would irreversibly or

Grantor and Grantee acknowledge that under such circumstances damage to the Grantee would
be irreparable and remedies at law will be inadequate. The rights and remedies of the Grantee
provided hereunder shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, all other rights and remedies
available to Grantee in connection with this Conservation Easement.
B. Inspection. The Grantee, its employees and agents, successors and assigns, have
the right, with reasonable notice, to enter the Easement Area over the Property at reasonable
times for the purpose of inspection to determine whether the Grantor, their successors or assigns
are complying with the terms, conditions and restrictions of this Conservation Easement.
C. Acts Beyond Grantor's Control. Nothing contained in this Conservation
Easement shall be construed to entitle Grantee to bring any action against Grantor, their
successors or assigns, for any injury or change in the Easement Area caused by third parties,
resulting from causes beyond the Grantor's control, including, without limitation, fire, flood,
storm, and earth movement, or from any prudent action taken in good faith by the Grantor under
emergency conditions to prevent, abate, or mitigate significant injury to life, damage to property

borne by Grantor.
E. No Waiver. Enforcement of this Easement shall be at the discretion of the
Grantee and any forbearance, delay or omission by Grantee to exercise its rights hereunder in the
event of any breach of any term set forth herein shall not be construed to be a waiver by Grantee.
V. MISCELLANEOUS
A. This instrument sets forth the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the
Conservation Easement and supersedes all prior discussions, negotiations, understandings or
agreements relating to the Conservation Easement. If any provision is found to be invalid, the

to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is found to be invalid, shall not be
affected thereby.
B. Any notices shall be sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested
to the parties at their addresses shown above or to other address(es) as either party establishes in
writing upon notification to the other.
C. Grantor shall notify Grantee in writing of the name and address and any party to
whom the Property or any part thereof is to be transferred at or prior to the time said transfer is
made. Grantor further agrees to make any subsequent lease, deed, or other legal instrument by
which any interest in the Property is conveyed subject to the Conservation Easement herein
created.
D. The Grantor and Grantee agree that the terms of this Conservation Easement shall
survive any merger of the fee and easement interests in the Property or any portion thereof.
E. This Conservation Easement may be amended, but only in writing signed by all
parties hereto, and provided such amendment does not affect the qualification of this
Conservation Easement or the status of the Grantee under any applicable laws, and is consistent
with the purposes of the Conservation Easement.
F. The parties recognize and agree that the benefits of this Conservation Easement
are in gross and assignable provided, however, that the Grantee hereby covenants and agrees,
that in the event it transfers or assigns this Conservation Easement, the organization receiving the
interest will be a qualified holder under N.C. Gen. Stat. § 121-34 et seq. and § 170(h) of the

storm, and earth movement, or from any prudent action taken in good faith by the Grantor under
emergency conditions to prevent, abate, or mitigate significant injury to life, damage to property
or harm to the Property resulting from such causes.

incurred by Grantee in enforcing the terms of this Conservation Easement against Grantor, their
successors or assigns, including, without limitation, any costs of restoration necessitated by
Grantor's acts or omissions in violation of the terms of this Conservation Easement, shall be
borne by Grantor.
No Waiver. Enforcement of this Easement shall be at the discretion of the Grantee and any
forbearance, delay or omission by Grantee to exercise its rights hereunder in the event of any
breach of any term set forth herein shall not be construed to be a waiver by Grantee.
V. MISCELLANEOUS

Conservation Easement and supersedes all prior discussions, negotiations, understandings or
agreements relating to the Conservation Easement. If any provision is found to be invalid, the

created.

survive any merger of the fee and easement interests in the Property or any portion thereof.
E. This Conservation Easement may be amended, but only in writing signed by all
parties hereto, and provided such amendment does not affect the qualification of this
Conservation Easement or the status of the Grantee under any applicable laws, and is consistent
with the purposes of the Conservation Easement.
F. The parties recognize and agree that the benefits of this Conservation Easement
are in gross and assignable provided, however, that the Grantee hereby covenants and agrees,

resulting from causes beyond the Grantor's control, including, without limitation, fire, flood,
storm, and earth movement, or from any prudent action taken in good faith by the Grantor under

agreements relating to the Conservation Easement. If any provision is found to be invalid, the

made. Grantor further agrees to make any subsequent lease, deed, or other legal instrument by
which any interest in the Property is conveyed subject to the Conservation Easement herein
created.
D. The Grantor and Grantee agree that the terms of this Conservation Easement shall
survive any merger of the fee and easement interests in the Property or any portion thereof.
E. This Conservation Easement may be amended, but only in writing signed by all
parties hereto, and provided such amendment does not affect the qualification of this
Conservation Easement or the status of the Grantee under any applicable laws, and is consistent
with the purposes of the Conservation Easement.
F. The parties recognize and agree that the benefits of this Conservation Easement
are in gross and assignable provided, however, that the Grantee hereby covenants and agrees,
that in the event it transfers or assigns this Conservation Easement, the organization receiving the
interest will be a qualified holder under N.C. Gen. Stat. § 121-34 et seq. and § 170(h) of the
