Good afternoon Zach and Lyle,
Please find the attached photo documentation of the first yearly monitoring update for the Bexford restoration site. The
site visit was performed on 5/09/2024 after an approximate 0.2" rain event the night before. The planted woody species
are surviving, and the planted and seeded emergent vegetation is growing well throughout the site. After multiple
storms since completion, there were no signs of erosion or channel migration from the original restoration plan, which
shows great channel resilience. We are not requiring or recommending any modifications.
The areas of water pooling noted during previous site visits appeared to have resolved themselves, but we will continue
to monitor those areas.
Please confirm receipt of this notice and let us know if you require any additional information.
We will plan to proceed with the next monitoring event late April/May 2025.

Hi Lauren,
DWR has received this remediation update and I have filed it in our records. I do not have any additional questions
currently.
If possible, would you please let DWR know of the next site visit planned? It would be good for staff to see the
restoration in person for training purposes.

Hi Lauren,
It appears Lyle's email may have had a spelling error on the 12/15/23 email that got carried over to the 2/13/24 email,
so I have added the attachment to this reply.
I will defer to any comments from the USACE regarding wetland soils. Pending any additional recommendation or
comments, this appears to be an acceptable plan for DWR as long as the plants are monitored/replaced if survivor rates
are not met.
If you have any questions, please let me know.

Good morning Zach and Lyle,

Prior to planting the woody species, we checked the soils on -site. A few points did not technically meet hydric soil
indicators, point 1(northern portion of the former SCM), point 4 (just west of the remediated stream), and point 5 (near
the utility ROW).
Point 5 is in an area that did not have soil fill placement and only vegetation disturbance, so appears to be natural soil.
We do not have pre -disturbance data for any of the points, but all seem to have components of what was previously
present. Further, all points appear to have enough loam and water table intrusion to form wetland soils over time.
We therefore recommend proceeding with the proposed planting without further soil modification. These areas will be
closely observed during the required yearly monitoring for if plant survivability does not meet standards.
Can you confirm you are ok with this plan?
Planting is ready to proceed ASAP, and we want to ensure we get them in during the appropriate window.
Thank you,
Lauren Norris -Heflin, PWS (she/her)

Good afternoon, Zach and Lyle.
We wanted to provide you with an update on the status of remediation. Our sitework contractor has completed
removal of the mis-placed sediment basin #13 and installed it in the correct location, grading of the area to pre -
construction conditions, re -alignment of the stream channel per Bateman Civil Survey topography data, and
stabilization. The area remains contained with silt fence as it was during our site visit.
Regarding completing the remainder of the restoration per the details of the approved plan, it was our assumption that
our sitework contractor would also perform the final restoration. However, upon approval of this remediation plan and
their review, they respectfully declined to attempt to complete this work due to the intricate details associated with this

remediation. A restoration of this size is not their forte. We've since requested quotes and schedules from specialty
restoration contractors, and we will be contracting this work early January. We will then complete the remaining
restoration per plan and have all plantings installed by the end of March.
Let us know if you have any and questions, and I hope you all have a great weekend.

Good Afternoon,
Thank you again for taking the time to meet with us for the site visit on 10/19/23 for DWR# 20211827 - Bexford
Subdivision 401 certification.
Per your self -report notification received by the Division (via email) on 9/14/23 and the subsequent site visit referenced
above to discuss the incorrectly installed sediment basin (#13), this site is considered out of compliance with the
parameters listed in the issued 401 and Buffer Authorization.
10

DWR is requiring a response to this notification of non-compliance that addresses the following:
1. The incorrectly installed Sediment Basin #13 must be removed from the wetland, stream, and riparian buffer
areas.
2. The impacted areas must be restored to natural conditions. The wetland and stream features must be restored
to natural grade and profile. Please ensure that design and plans are provided to both DWR and USACE for
approval. The riparian buffer area must be restored using native plant species and meet all criteria under the
Neuse Riparian Buffer Rules (15A NCAC 02B .0714). A restoration plan should be provided to DWR as part of
your response that includes a monitoring plan for the wetland, stream, and buffers plantings for 3 years (if
deemed appropriate, DWR can shorten the length of time required for monitoring).
3. Please provide an impact map that depicts:
a. The unauthorized impact total to the wetland (acres)
b. The unauthorized impact total to the stream channel (linear feet)
c. The unauthorized impact total to the riparian buffer area (square feet)
4. As part of your plans, please include any temporary impacts that will occur during the construction process
(pump arounds, etc.) and clearly indicate the access path for equipment.
5. As part of your plans, please include an anticipated date that construction will begin and end.
Please provide a response (including photo documentation) and remediation plans within 30 days of this notification. If
you have any questions, please let me know.

Dear Mr. Vinson,
Good morning. My name is ML Mueller, and I am the Division President of the Carolinas East Division of Forestar, a
residential development company. We are the owner and developer of "Bexford — Open Space Subdivision," located in
the Fuquay-Varina jurisdiction, under Section 401 Permit DWR #20211837 and Section 404 Permit #SAW-2019-02335.
The purpose of this email and the attached letter is to notify you that we recently discovered and confirmed within the
last 24 hours that temporary Sediment Basin #13 was incorrectly installed past the approved limits of
disturbance. Surveying completed this morning appears to verify the encroachment. The impacts appear within
jurisdictional wetlands and the stream situated NNW of the planned temporary Sediment Basin #13 location.
Matted diversions divert surface water to the basin, and the current E&SC controls appear to address surface waters
from the site sufficiently. In the interim, no further disturbances will occur outside the LOD, and we are moving forward
with re -installing the basin and adjacent silt fence in the approved locations.
We have engaged our engineering, surveying, permitting, and SWPPP consultants to develop a detailed report
describing the amount of area impacted and a remediation plan, and we will send the report as soon as possible for
review and comment.
Please feel free to call me or email if you have any questions or recommendations, would like photos, or wish to meet
on -site.
A copy of the attached letter has also been sent to you by USPS-certified mail with the return receipt requested.
Best —
ML
