Creek's Landing January 12, 2015
Stream Relocation Plan CWS Project No. 2015-3535
Purpose and Need for the Stream Relocation
There are eight jurisdictional seasonal RPW stream channels (Streams A -H) and four jurisdictional
wetlands (Wetlands AA -DD) located within the project area (Figure 3, attached). On -Site streams are
unnamed tributaries to East Fork Twelve Mile Creek. The purpose of the project is to develop
approximately 35 acres of the 48 acre property into a single-family subdivision consisting of 68 lots
(Figures 4, attached). This will result in impacts to jurisdictional waters of the U.S.
The original plan for the proposed road crossing was a piped conveyance instead of the currently proposed
culvert (Figure 5, attached). This original plan included a 1531f, 30 -inch, "L" -shaped reinforced concrete
pipe (RCP) with a 151f rip rap apron at the outlet. Permanent impacts associated with this design totaled
167 linear feet of Stream B.
In order to reduce impacts to jurisdictional waters of the U.S., a straight culvert with stream relocation was
chosen in lieu of a piped conveyance (Figures 6 and 7, attached). A straight culvert is the favored design as
it will maintain aquatic life passage, is easier to maintain, and has a lower potential to clog versus a piped
conveyance. Permanent impacts associated with this culvert installation total 1091f of Stream B. Due to a
an extreme bend in Stream B, 125 linear feet of temporary impacts is proposed for relocation This
relocation will allow for the culvert to be aligned with downstream waters at the outlet, but creates a
loss of 15 if during the relocation of the existing stream to the relocated stream (Stream 7, attached).
In order to maintain minimal impacts, the proposed impacts to Stream B total 2491f, consisting of 109
If of permanent impacts (culvert installation), 125 linear feet of temporary impacts (relocation), and a
151f net loss (from existing to relocated). Impacts are summarized in Table 1, below.

The proposed culvert is a 100 -linear foot, 30 -inch reinforced concrete pipe (RCP) with headwalls at
both the inlet and outlet of the culvert. The proposed culvert will be buried at least six inches below
the bed of the channel to allow passage of aquatic life and maintain low flows. Impacts associated with
the straight culvert design were reduced through the use of headwalls at the inlet and outlet of the proposed
culvert in order to minimize the length required for the proposed crossing. The proposed culvert is also
designed to maintain bankfull channel dimensions upstream and downstream of the proposed culvert.
In -stream structures will provide stabilization and prevent upstream incision, as necessary. Natural
coconut matting, riparian seed, and native plants will be installed on both sides of the relocated Stream
B for bank stabilization and erosion control. Vegetation species will be chosen to fit in with the
existing plant community, as well as add diversity, particularly in the riparian zone. Currently, much
of the riparian area is dominated by invasive Chinese privet. Chinese privet and other invasive species
such as Japanese honeysuckle will be removed and/or treated.

Stream Relocation Plan CWS Proiect No. 2015-3535
All channel work will be constructed in the dry in accordance with Water Quality Certification No.
3890. Proper sediment and erosion control measures will be used to minimize disturbances to
downstream waters.
Methods
A geomorphic survey was performed by CWS scientists Kelly Thames, Wetland Professional in
Training (WPIT), Kaitlin McCulloch, Staff Scientist I, and Ben McGuire, Staff Scientist I on
December 28, 2015. This assessment included a longitudinal profile and representative cross sections
of the existing stream channel (Figures 8 —11, attached). Due to the extreme bend in Stream B, the
relocation is necessary in order to align the proposed culvert with downstream waters. The stream
relocation plan proposes for Stream B to exit the proposed culvert and flow for a relocated 125 if to a
logical tie-in point downstream. This plan ultimately reduces permanent stream impacts from 249 if to
1241f.
Stream B exhibits stable characteristics and was determined a good reference reach to survey for the
relocated design. A longitudinal profile and cross sectional surveys were performed on a
representative riffle and a representative pool feature (Figures 9 —11, attached). The average drainage
area for Stream B is approximately 0.064 square miles (41.16 acres), channel slope averages 0.018
ft/ft, and sinuosity is 1.17 ft/ft. Bankfull width and mean depth for this reach are 4.92 feet and 0.39
feet, respectively, with a bankfull area of 1.91 sq. ft. and width/depth ratio of 12.66. The flood prone
width for this reach is 10 feet and greater. Application of Rosgen Level II Stream Classification to a
representative riffle section identified Stream B as a C type channel (Table 2, below).
Stream Design
CWS developed.a stream design for the relocation of Stream B downstream of the culvert installation
based on existing channel conditions (Figure 7, attached). This design will improve the goals of the
project and enhance future water quality by adding sinuosity to reduce sheer stress, increasing the
quality of epifaunal substrate, and enhancing the buffer with native riparian plantings. The old
channel will be filled and planted. Typical cross sectional dimensions for the relocation will be based
on the existing cross sectional dimensions (Figure 12, attached). A longitudinal profile was developed
for the relocation to exit the proposed culvert and tie-in to the existing channel at a logical downstream
location (Figure 13, attached).

CWS will utilize a pump around to work in the dry and apply other erosion and sediment control
techniques to minimize sediment escape from the site during construction. These techniques include
employing coir fiber logs within the channel bed immediately downstream of the construction area.
These logs are meant to temporarily prevent downstream sediment migration and will be removed
once the channel has been stabilized with matting.
The relocated channel reach is designed to have profile and dimension similar to the upstream reach,
however it has been designed with added sinuosity. The restored stream will have similar channel
stability and dimensions to the original channel, as well as provide an uplift of aquatic function by
providing a higher quality riparian buffer through planting native plants and controlling invasive plant
species. The improvements to the relocated stream are designed to minimize erosion, downstream
sediment accumulation, and downstream scouring by redirecting flow and reducing sheer stress.
Planting Plan
Natural coconut matting (coir matting), native seed mix, live stakes, and native plants will be installed
on both sides of Stream B in various zones for bank stabilization and erosion control. Vegetation
species will be chosen based on the existing plant community and to add species diversity, particularly
in the riparian zone.
Stream banks consist of three zones: 1) lower stream banks, 2) upper stream banks, and 3) riparian
buffer (Figure 14, attached). Revegetation of the area directly adjacent to the relocated channel is
especially important to prevent erosion, downstream sedimentation, and provides important water
quality and habitat services. Wetland plant species such as silky dogwood (Cornus amomum), river
birch (Betula nigra), black willow (Salix nigra), and soft rush (Juncus effusus) will be planted on the
lower stream banks (Zone 1, approximately 506 square feet [sfJ). Black willow and clusters of soft
rush will be planted on outside stream bends for dense rooting and erosion control. Upper stream
banks (Zone 2, approximately 782 sf) will be planted with other moisture -tolerant species such as
green ash and red maple. The riparian buffer (Zone 3, approximately 9,474 sf) will be planted with

species such as ironwood, slippery elm, and spicebush (Lindera benzoin). All disturbed areas will be
seeded with temporary and permanent native riparian and wetland seed mixes, and stream banks will
be matted with natural coconut matting. Planting plan details are summarized in Table 3 (below) and
Figure 13 (attached).

Dear Mr. McCall:
You have our approval, in accordance with the General Certification and those
conditions listed below, for the purpose proposed in your application dated November 3, 2015,
and received by the Division of Water Resources (the Division) on November 6, 2015. After
reviewing your application, we have determined that this project is covered by Water Quality
General Certification Number 3890 which can be viewed on our web site at
http://Portal.ncdenr.org/web/wq/swp/ws/401. The General Certification allows you to use
Nationwide Permit Number 29 once it is issued to you by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
(COE), Please note that you should get any other federal, state or local permits before
proceeding with your project, including those required by (but not limited to) Sediment and
Erosion Control, Non -Discharge, and Water Supply Watershed regulations.
The above noted Certification will expire when the associated 404 permit expires unless
otherwise specified in the General Certification. It is advised that all conditions of the
Certification are reviewed prior to initiation of the project. In addition to the requirements of the
Certification, you must also comply with the following conditions:
This approval is only valid for the purpose and design that you described in your
application. If you change your project, you must notify us in writing, and you may be
required to send us a new application for a new Certification. If total wetland fills for this
project (now or in the future) exceed one acre, or of total impacts to streams (now or in
the future) exceed 150 linear feet, compensatory mitigation may be required. If the
property is sold, the new owner must be given a copy of the Certification and approval
letter; and is thereby responsible for complying with all conditions. 15A NCAC 02H
.0506 and 15A NCAC 02H.0507
2. The Mooresville Regional Office shall be notified in writing once construction at the
approved impact areas has commenced. 15A NCAC 02H .0502 (e)]

6. A final, written storm water management is required per condition #12 of the General
Certification. Stormwater discharge structures at this site shall be constructed in a
manner such that the potential receiving streams (of the discharge) will not be impacted
due to sediment accumulations, scouring or erosion of the stream banks. 15A NCAC 02H
.0506(b)(5)
7. Use of native vegetation and other soft stream bank stabilization techniques is
recommended where practicable instead of riprap or other bank hardening methods. If
riprap is necessary, it shall not be placed in the streambed, unless approved by DWR
8. During the construction of the project, no staging of equipment of any kind is permitted in
waters of the U.S., or protected riparian buffers. 15A NCAC 02H .0506(b)(3)
9. A final stream design (for the relocated stream section) shall be submitted and
approved by staff prior to any stream impacts at the site.
10. The Permittee shall ensure that the final design drawings adhere to the permit and to the
permit drawings submitted for approval. 15A NCAC 02H .0507 (c) and 15A NCAC 02H
.0506 (b)(2) and (c)(2)
11. All mechanized equipment operated near surface waters must be regularly inspected and
maintained to prevent contamination of stream waters from fuels, lubricants, hydraulic
fluids, or other toxic materials. 15A NCAC 02H.0506(b)(3)
