The Colonial Pipeline Company (CPC) was issued National Pollutant Discharge System (NPDES) Permit
NCO090000 associated with the 2020-L1-SR2448 Release Site located near Huntersville, Mecklenburg
County, North Carolina (the Site). NPDES Permit NCO090000 addresses a planned discharge from a
watertreatment facility to be installed at the Site. CPC is required to perform in -stream biological
integrity assessments consistent with Permit Condition A. (5.) of the NPDES Permit. The Site is situated
on both sides of Huntersville-Concord Road (State Road 2448 [SR 2448]) as shown in Figure 1. CPC
contracted TRC Environmental Corporation (TRC) to develop the Biological Integrity Study Plan in
support of Permit Condition A. (5.) of NPDES Permit NC0090000. The Biological Integrity Study Plan was
submitted by CPC to North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ) - Division of Water
Resources on October 31, 2023. This report documents the methods and results of the pre -discharge
baseline sampling event which occurred on May 20, 2024.
The area within a 1,500-foot radius of the Site is a mixture of low -density residential properties,
agricultural properties, and wooded land. The Site is located within the Yadkin Pee -Dee River Basin.
North Prong Clarke Creek is located approximately 1,800 feet north of the Site and South Prong Clarke
Creek is located approximately 2,700 feet south of the Site, both of which are characterized by the
NCDEQ Division of Water Quality as Class C water bodies, meaning that they are protected for non -
drinking water purposes such as biological integrity, fishing, and infrequent secondary recreational
purposes (i.e., wading).
Mecklenburg County is located within the Piedmont physiographic province, characterized by rolling
hills and moderately steep valleys formed by stream erosion of upland areas. Elevations at the Site
range from approximately 650 to 750 feet above mean sea level. The surficial soils at the Site consist
almost entirely of fine-grained clayey to silty saprolite developed from the weathering of the underlying
bedrock. The soil thickness ranges from a few feet to greater than 100 feet. Data obtained from
completed borings indicate the Site is underlain by quartz diorite.

Permit Condition A. (5.) to the NPDES Permit NCO090000 requires an annual instream assessment of
biological integrity. The NCDEQ Full Scale method was used to determine bioclassifications and water
quality ratings. This method is typically used for most between -site and/or between -date comparisons
(NCDEQ 2016).
2.1 Sampling Approach and Locations
On May 20, 2024, TRC's biologist along with their subcontracted NCDEQ Certified Laboratory for Aquatic
Population Studies of Benthic Macroinvertebrates certified biologist conducted two Full -Scale benthic
macroinvertebrate surveys at two sampling locations —an Upstream Reference Site and a Downstream
Experimental Site. The sampling locations share similar riparian and geomorphological characteristics,
such as substrate composition and incised stream channel. The watersheds for the Upstream Reference
Site and the Downstream Experimental Site are comparable in that both watersheds are approximately
3 square miles in area and composed of forested lands, developed lands, agricultural lands, and
impervious surfaces (USGS StreamStatsl). The macroinvertebrate sampling locations for the pre-
discharge baseline sampling event are shown on Figure 2.
NCDEQ requires that North Carolina certified biologists implement the biological integrity assessment
program. TRC subcontracted a North Carolina certified biologist from Michael Baker International (MBI)
in Asheville, North Carolina to support preparation and implementation of the biological integrity
assessment program.
CPC notified the supervisor for the Biological Assessment Branch, Water Sciences Section 30-days prior
to performing the pre -discharge baseline sampling event.
2.2 Sampling Methods
TRC and MBI assessed in -stream and riparian habitat conditions at each of the sampling locations
consistent with the work plan developed for the Site. Metrics were used to generate a habitat score for
each sampling location and are included in Appendix A. Metrics include instream habitat, substrate
composition, pool variety, riffle habitat, bank stability and vegetation, light penetration, and riparian
vegetation zone width. Water quality parameters were collected at each sampling location with a
calibrated YSI style meter.
The macroinvertebrate samples were collected according to the specifications outlined in the 2016
NCDEQ Standard Operating Procedures for the Collection and Analysis of Benthic Macroinvertebrates,
TRC Environmental Corporation ( Colonial Pipeline Company 3

which provides detailed standard operating procedures for the collection and analysis of freshwater
benthic macroinvertebrate data that can help determine bioclassification ratings (NCDEQ 2016).
The techniques used to assess the macroinvertebrate community included two riffle kicks, three sweeps,
one leaf -pack, two rock -and log -washes, one sand grab, and visual observations. To minimize the
amount of stirred -up sediment washing downstream and potential disturbance to macroinvertebrates,
sampling was initiated at the most downstream point of each reach with scientists traveling upstream to
the reference macroinvertebrate sampling location.
The riffle -kick method uses kicknets or D-frame nets, and substrate is surveyed for approximately two
meters. The kick -nets are placed perpendicular to the streambed and sediment is disturbed on the
upstream side of the kick -net so the disturbed contents wash into the net. The sweep collection method
requires a sweep net to be used to sample locations such as undercut banks, root mats and aquatic
vegetation. The leaf -pack collection method requires the collection of a leaf -pack, which should target
deciduous material when possible. The leaf -pack is collected and then the collected material is washed
and ultimately poured over a sieve bucket. The rock- and log -wash collection method requires larger
substrate material to be collected and then washed into a plastic container where the remaining
material is then poured through a fine -mesh sampler. The sand collection method specifically targets
macroinvertebrates that live in the sand. For the sand collection method, a kicknet was placed
downstream of the sand substrate to be sampled and sediment will be disturbed, and the disturbed
material will be collected in the kicknet. The visual method requires the sampling team make visual
inspections of the sampling locations mainly targeting larger macroinvertebrates (NCDEQ 2016). Any
larger macroinvertebrates were placed into a vial containing 70 percent ethanol. The remaining
contents from each Full -Scale sampling method was placed into a labeled container and preserved in 70
percent ethanol. The preserved samples were transferred to MBI's Asheville, NC based lab for
processing.
2.3 Laboratory Methods
After arrival at the lab, the contents of each sample were sorted to separate macroinvertebrates from
the organic material. Sorting was conducted under a dissecting microscope. Sorted macroinvertebrates
were preserved in 70 percent ethanol and identified to the lowest practical taxonomic level.

Water quality data including Dissolved Oxygen (DO), pH, specific conductivity, and temperature were
collected at both locations using a calibrated YSI 556 MPS meter. Water quality parameters are
summarized in Table 1. Each water quality parameter was comparable at the upstream and
downstream locations.
Habitat within the Upstream Reference Site and Downstream Experimental Site was evaluated using the
Habitat Assessment Field Data Sheet for Mountain/Piedmont Streams. Appendix A contains the
assessment data sheets. The Upstream Reference Site is located within an area of heavy residential
development within the watershed. The reach sampled consists of a coarse sand substrate and deeply
incised banks. Large woody debris was present within the reach. Leaf packs, rocks, and bank habitat
were limited within the reach. The uniform habitat present in the upstream reach along with the sandy
substrate resulted in a Habitat Assessment Field Data Sheet for Mountain/Piedmont Streams total score
of 38. The Downstream Experimental Site contains coarse sandy substrate and provides undercut
habitat along the left bank along with a deeply incised right bank. One cobble riffle was observed in the
Downstream Experimental Site which resulted in a total habitat score of 49.
The macroinvertebrate data collected was used to calculate tolerance values and compared with the
North Carolina biotic index. Tolerance values are a macro invertebrate index that refers to the pollution
tolerance levels of each macroinvertebrate taxon. The North Carolina Biotic Index (NCBI) is modeled
after the Hilsenhoff Biotic Index (Hilsenhoff 1987, 1988) and is a given sample's weighted average of
tolerance values for the macroinvertebrate species identified with respect to their abundance
(NCDEQ 2016). Table 2 summarizes benthic macroinvertebrate metrics calculated for each location.
The Downstream Experimental Site resulted in higher diversity and abundance when compared to the
upstream location. The Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera and Trichoptera (EPT) taxa richness score was higher
at the Downstream Experimental Site. These taxa are widely utilized as one measure of water quality
indicators because the richness and abundance of these organisms can be affected by a wide range of
environmental and water quality stressors. The Downstream Experimental Site scored a slightly lower
NCBI value, scaled from 0.0 to 10.0, where lower values indicate more pristine conditions and higher
values indicating stress. These differences may be attributable to the greater habitat diversity present
at the Downstream Experimental Site. Seasonal adjustment corrections are typically applied for select
species when sampling occurs outside of the summer sampling dates. The adjustment factors were not
applied to the Site data, as none of the taxa collected require application of the adjustment factor.

2024 Benthic Macroinvertebrate Monitoring Report
Annual Instream Assessment of Biological Integrity Study
The Colonial Pipeline Company (CPC) Huntersville-Concord Road (State Road 2448 [SR 2448]) pipeline site is located
near Huntersville, Mecklenburg County, North Carolina (the Site). The CPC pipelines cross SR 2448 (Figure 1).
The area within a 1,500-foot radius of the Site is a mixture of low -density residential properties, agricultural
properties, and wooded land. The Site is located within the Yadkin Pee -Dee River Basin. North Prong Clarke Creek is
located approximately 1,800 feet north of the Site and South Prong Clarke Creek is located approximately 2,700 feet
south of the Site, both of which are characterized by the NCDEQ Division of Water Quality as Class C water bodies,
meaning that they are protected for non -drinking water purposes such as biological integrity, fishing, and infrequent
secondary recreational purposes (i.e., wading).
Mecklenburg County is located within the Piedmont physiographic province, characterized by rolling hills and
moderately steep valleys formed by stream erosion of upland areas. Elevations at the Site range from approximately
650 to 750 feet above mean sea level. The surficial soils at the Site consist almost entirely of fine-grained clayey to
silty saprolite developed from the weathering of the underlying bedrock. The soil thickness ranges from a few feet to
greater than 100 feet. Data obtained from completed borings indicate the Site is underlain by quartz diorite.
Requirements:
TRC Companies (TRC) enlisted Michael Baker International (MBI) to design an Annual Instream Assessment of
Biological Integrity Study Plan in the North Prong of Clark Creek in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina. MBI operates
a NC Division of Environmental Quality (DEQ) Certified Laboratory for Aquatic Population Studies of Benthic
Macroinvertebrates (Certificate #044). The study plan and annual survey are required for compliance with the terms
of Colonial Pipeline Company's NPDES Permit NCO090000 Section A. (5.) Instream Assessment of Biological Integrity
(Annual). This NPDES Permit is associated with a proposed discharge (Outfall 001) into the North Prong of Clark Creek
where the creek crosses under Huntersville — Concord Rd. at approximately 35.420216,-80.797979.
On May 20, 2024, MBI staff Jason York and Brent Stoltz, along with TRC employee James Treacy
conducted two Full -Scale benthic macroinvertebrate samples on the North Fork of Clark Creek in
accordance with the approved Annual Instream Assessment of Biological Integrity Study Plan. The Full -
Scale sampling method includes':

Water quality data including Dissolved Oxygen (DO), pH, Specific conductivity, and temperature were
collected at both locations using a calibrated YSI 556 MPS meterfrom Field Environmental Instruments,
Inc. and is shown in Table 1 of the Discussion section of this report. A taxa list for each site is included
in Appendix A.
Site Descriptions:
The Upstream Reference Site is located at approximately 35.419315,-80.806036 and was accessed
through private property at the end of Ewart Rd. Heavy residential development exists in the
watershed upstream. The sampled reach is deeply incised with the substrate consisting almost entirely
of course sand. Large woody debris was frequent; however, leaf packs, rocks, and bank habitat were
limited. Due to a severe lack of colonizable habitat and an almost completely uniform sand substrate,
the Habitat Assessment Field Data Sheet for Mountain/Piedmont Streams Total Score was 38.

INTERNATIONAL.
The Downstream Experimental Site is located at approximately 35.419590,-80.797398 and was
accessed through private property immediately past the Huntersvilie-Concord Rd bridged crossing of
the North Prong of Clark Creek. The sampled reach was deeply incised on the right bank. The left bank
did provide some undercut habitat; however, woody debris and leaf packs were limited. One cobble
riffle was present although the substrate was dominated by coarse sand. Due to the presence of this
riffle the Total Score for the Habitat Assessment Field Data Sheet for Mountain Piedmont Streams at
this site was 49.
Experimental site facing downstream.
Discussion:
Experimental site facing upstream.
Physicochemical water quality parameters between the Upstream Reference site and the Downstream Experimental
site showed minimal difference (See Table 1); however, benthic macroinvertebrate metrics at the Downstream
Experimental site showed higher diversity and abundance which is summarized in Table 2 and shown visually in Figure
2. The Downstream Experimental site also scored a lower NC Biotic Index value, scaled from 0.0 to 10.0, where lower
values indicate more pristine conditions and higher values indicating stress. These differences can be most likely
explained by greater available habitat at the Downstream Experimental location which included a rocky riffle and
undercut banks that were not available at the Upstream Reference location. Bioclassifications were assigned to each
site based on "Table 5. Thresholds for determining BI and EPT scores using Full Scale criteria" from the 2016 NC DEQ
Standard Operating Procedures for the Collection and Analysis of Benthic Macroinvertebrates (2016 SOP). Seasonal
