1.0 PROJECT SUMMARY
1.1. Goals and Objectives
The overall goals address the stressors identified in the TLW and include the following:
Improve water quality within the restored channel reaches and downstream watercourses by
reducing sediment and nutrient inputs and increasing dissolved oxygen levels
Improve local aquatic and terrestrial ecological function through increased stream shading,
habitat complexity, and availability of organic/ woody material
Improve aquatic and benthic habitat and associated streambed form
Improve site hydrology, wetland functions, and attenuation of flood flows
Provide riparian area and wetland restoration with a native plant community
Protect the site from future land impacts
The specific project objectives that are intended to target the above goals include the following:
Implement Priority I and II restoration of 1,882 feet of stream and rehabilitation/re-establishment
of 4.35 acres of wetlands
Implement appropriate changes in dimension, pattern and/or profile to establish geomorphically
stable conditions within the project reaches
Modify degraded stream channels to enable proper sediment transport capacity and improved
streambed form
Integrate in -stream structures and native bank vegetation
Re -grade the floodplain to remove drainage ditches, spoil berms, and overburden soil
Plant native woody and herbaceous riparian vegetation within a minimum width of 30 feet from
the edge of the restored channels and throughout the restored wetland area
Eradicate invasive, exotic or undesirable plant species
Install livestock exclusion fencing
Establish a permanent conservation easement
1.2. Success Criteria
1.2.1. Morphological Parameters and Channel Stability
Restored and enhanced streams are in compliance with the standards set forth in the USACE 2003 Stream
Mitigation Guidelines and the "Ecosystem Enhancement Program Monitoring Requirements and
Performance Standards for Stream and Wetland Mitigation" dated November 7, 2011. Restored and
enhanced streams should demonstrate morphologic stability to be considered successful. Stability does
not equate to an absence of change, but rather to sustainable rates of change or stable patterns of variation.
Restored streams often demonstrate some level of initial adjustment in the several months that follow
construction and some change/variation subsequent to that is also to be expected. However, the observed
change should not be unidirectional such that it represents a robust trend. If some trend is evident, it
should be very modest or indicate migration to a stable form.
Dimension- Cross-section measurements should indicate little change from the as -built cross-
sections. If changes do occur, they will be evaluated to determine whether the adjustments are
associated with increased stability or whether they indicate movement towards an unstable
condition.

NCDMS Project No. 95720 Annual Monitoring Report
Monitoring Year 1 of 7

Pattern and Profile - Visual inspection of the pattern and profile should indicate stability with
little deviation from as -built conditions for the restored stream. Pool depths may vary from year
to year, but the majority should maintain depths sufficient to be observed as distinct features.
The pools should maintain their depth with flatter water surface slopes, while the riffles should
remain shallower and steeper. Pattern and profile measurements will not be collected unless
conditions seem to indicate that a detectable and detrimental change appears to have occurred.
Substrate - Calculated D5o and D84 values should indicate coarser size class distribution of bed
materials in riffles and finer size class distribution in pools. The majority of riffle pebble counts
should indicate maintenance or coarsening of substrate distributions. Generally, it is anticipated
that the bed material will coarsen over time.
Sediment Transport - Depositional features should be consistent with a stable stream that is
effectively managing its sediment load. Point bar and inner berm features, if present, should
develop without excessive encroachment of the channel. Isolated development of robust (i.e.
comprised of coarse material and/or vegetated actively diverting flow) mid -channel or lateral
bars will be acceptable. Likewise, development of a higher number of mid -channel or lateral
bars that are minor in terms of their permanency such that profile measurements do not indicate
systemic aggradation will be acceptable, but trends in the development of robust mid -channel or
alternating bar features will be considered a destabilizing condition and may require intervention
or have success implications.
1.2.2. Surface Water Hydrology
Monitoring of stream surface water stages should indicate recurrence of bankfull flow on average every 1
to 2 years. At a minimum, throughout the monitoring period, the surface water stage should achieve
bankfull or greater elevations at least twice. The bankfull events must occur during separate monitoring
years.
1.2.3. Groundwater Hydrology
The USACE defines minimum hydrology for jurisdictional wetlands to be saturation within 12 inches of
the surface for at least 5% of the growing season if soils and vegetation meet jurisdictional criteria. Given
the hydric soils are present throughout the restoration area but that wetland vegetation will be newly
established, it is reasonable to set the minimum hydrology threshold slightly above the jurisdictional
minimum threshold. As such the minimum performance standard is set to provide saturated soils within
12 inches of the surface for at least eight percent (8%) of the growing season under average climatic
conditions. In the event of non -typical years of climatic conditions, groundwater monitoring data should
demonstrate similar hydro -periods when compared to reference wetland groundwater data. The reference
wetland site will be the NCDMS Cat Creek Stream and Wetland Restoration Site — NCDMS Project # 71
— located east of Franklin in Macon County, NC. The growing season for the site was based on the
Natural Resource Conservation Service (MRCS) WETS dataset for Macon County (http://agacis.rcc-
acis.org/37113/wets). The Macon County dataset is based on a site with elevations roughly the same as
the project site. According to NRCS, the growing season for Macon County is defined to be the period
with a 50% probability that the daily minimum temperature is higher than 28°F. At the project site, this
period extends from April 16' to October 19' for a total of 187 days. Based on this, wetland hydrology
success will be achieved if the water table is within 12 inches of the soil surface for 15 consecutive days
or more during the growing season.

Monitoring Year 1 of 7

1.2.4. Vegetation
Riparian vegetation monitoring shall be conducted for a minimum of seven years to ensure that success
criteria are met per USACE guidelines. Accordingly, success criteria will consist of a minimum survival
of 260 planted stems per acre by the end of the Year 5 monitoring period and a minimum of 210 planted
stems per acre at the end of Year 7. If monitoring indicates either that the specified survival rate is not
being met or the development of detrimental conditions (i.e., invasive species, diseased vegetation),
appropriate corrective actions will be developed and implemented. Additionally, planted vegetation must
average 8 feet in height in each plot at year 7 (as defined in the USACE 2003). If this performance
standard is met by year 5 and stem density is trending toward success (i.e., no less than 260 five year-old
stems/acre) monitoring of vegetation on the site may be terminated provided written approval is given by
the USACE in consultation with the North Carolina Interagency Review Team (NCIRT).
1.3. Project Setting and Background
The Cochran Branch Mitigation Project (The Site) is located approximately 6 miles northwest of
Franklin, North Carolina at latitude 35°12'52" N and longitude 83029120" W. The Site encompasses
approximately 10 acres of agricultural land and consists of two streams, Cochran Branch and Parrish
Branch, along with 4.35 acres of wetlands on the Cochran Branch floodplain. The Site lies within the
Little Tennessee River Watershed NC Division of Water Quality (DWQ) sub -basin 04-04-01 and local
HUC 06010202040020. The project is located within the NCDMS Iotla Creek targeted local watershed
(TLW) and within the Franklin to Fontana local watershed plant (LWP). Cochran Branch drains to
Burningtown Creek approximately 0.5 miles downstream of the project. Burningtown Creek is classified
as B;Tr by NCDEQ.
1.4. Project Performance
Monitoring Year 1 (MY I) data was collected during December 2015. Monitoring activities included
visual assessment of all reaches and the surrounding easement, collection of images at eight permanent
photo stations, inventory of eight permanent vegetation monitoring plots, surveying of nine cross-
sections, and conducting five pebble counts.
Summary information/data related to the occurrence of items such as beaver or encroachment and
statistics related to performance of various project and monitoring elements can be found in the tables and
figures in the report appendices. Narrative background and supporting information formerly found in
these reports can be found in the Baseline Monitoring Report (formerly Mitigation Plan) and in the
Mitigation Plan (formerly Restoration Plan) documents available on the NCDMS website
(http://portal.NCDEQ.org/web/eep). All raw data supporting the tables and figures in the appendices is
available from DMS upon request.
1.4.1. Vegetation
Visual assessment of vegetation outside of the monitoring plots (Appendix B — Table 6) indicates that the
herbaceous vegetation is becoming well established throughout the project. Several remaining
populations of Chinese privet (Ligustrum sinense) were treated during June 2015. Follow-up treatments
for Chinese privet will be performed during the winter of 2015-2016. Planted stems were difficult to
assess across the site during leaf -off condition. Viability of planted stems will be monitored in
subsequent site visits.
Monitoring of the permanent vegetation plots (n = 8; VP) was completed during December 2015.
Summary tables and photographs associated with MY1 monitoring are located in Appendix C. MY1
monitoring data indicates that all but VP -6 are on track to meet the MY3 interim success criteria of 320
Cochran Stream and Wetland Restoration Project 3 Equinox
NCDMS Project No. 95720 Annual Monitoring Report
Monitoring Year 1 of 7

planted stems per acre. Vegetation Plot 6 had a density of 121 planted stems per acre, well below the
Year 5 and Year 3 target densities of 260 and 320 planted stems per acre, respectively. Planted stem
densities among plots ranged from 121 to 769 planted stems per acre with an annual mean of 582 planted
stems per acre across all plots. A total of 10 species were documented within the plots. When volunteer
stems are included, the mean annual total stems per acre rose to 597 and ranged between 121 and 769
stems per acre. The lack of success in VP -6 can likely be attributed to the location of this plot on top of a
small knoll, where it is generally dryer, followed by a dry summer. Additionally, vegetation within, and
surrounding, the plot is dominated by fescue. This area will be replanted during spring 2016.
1.4.2. Stream Geomorphology
Visual assessment of the stream channel was performed to document signs of instability, such as eroding
banks, structural instability, or excessive sedimentation. No indication of instability was observed during
visual assessment and all structures are functioning as designed (Table 5 and Figure 2).
Geomorphic data for MY1 was collected during December 2015. Summary tables and cross-section plots
related to stream morphology are located in Appendix D. Noticeable change in the cross-section data
between MYO and MY1 were limited to pool cross-sections 1 and 4, where deposition and scour,
respectively, led to slight changes in the maximum pool depth (Appendix B, Table 11 a). These changes
are relatively minor and do not exceed expectations of adjustments within the channel, particularly for the
first year of monitoring. As expected pebble counts indicate that riffles contain coarser substrate than
pools. The riffle D50 fell into the very coarse sand to medium gravel size class for Cochran lb and very
fine gravel to fine gravel for Parrish Branch. Substrate will be monitored in future years for shifts in
particle size composition.
The bank pin arrays indicate that no erosion is taking place in the pools. All bankpins were buried under
soft accretions of sediment. Documented shifts in stream morphology do not exceed expectations
between MYO and MY1 as the constructed stream adjusts to conditions at the site. The project is meeting
success criteria regarding stable cross-section dimensions as well as substrate size composition, and
sediment transport.
1.4.3. Groundwater and Stream Hydrology
During MY 1, all eight of the groundwater monitoring wells met the 8% hydroperiod success criteria
(Table 13). Due to the fact that the baseline monitoring setup and MY1 data collection occurred during
the same year, hydrologic data was collected for only 132 days of the 187 day growing season.
Calculations of the maximum hydroperiod were based on the full growing season; however, as a result of
the shortened data collection period, the maximum number of consecutive days within 12 inches of the
ground surface is limited to 132 days. All monitoring wells still met the 8% hydroperiod success criteria.
Hydroperiods among the monitoring wells ranged from 13.6% to 100%.
During a December 2015 site visit, one bankfull event was recorded on Cochran Branch (mainstem), at
0.86 feet above bankfull (Table 12). This is the first bankfull event since project completion.
2.0 METHODS
For MY1, visual assessment was performed during the geomorphic and vegetation data collection event.
For future monitoring years, visual assessment of the project will be performed at the beginning and end
of each monitoring year. Permanent photo station photos were collected during the geomorphic data
collection event; however for future monitoring years, permanent photo station photos will be taken
Cochran Stream and Wetland Restoration Project 4 Equinox
NCDMS Project No. 95720 Annual Monitoring Report
Monitoring Year 1 of 7

during the initial visual assessment; during leaf -off conditions. Additional photos of vegetation or stream
problem areas were taken as needed.
Geomorphic measurements were taken during low flow conditions using a Nikon® NPR 332 Total
Station. Three-dimensional coordinates associated with cross-section data were collected in the field and
geo-referenced (NAD83 State Plane feet FIPS 3200). Morphological data were collected at 9 cross-
sections. Survey data was imported into CAD, ArcGIS®, and Microsoft Excel® for data processing and
analysis. Channel substrate was characterized using a Wolman Pebble Count as outlined in Harrelson et
al. (1994) and processed using Microsoft Excel.
Vegetation success is being monitored at 8 permanent monitoring plots. Vegetation monitoring follows
the CVS-EEP Level 2 Protocol for Recording Vegetation, version 4.2 (Lee et al. 2008) and includes
analysis of species composition and density of planted species. Data is processed using the CVS data
entry tool. In the field, the four corners of each plot were permanently marked with rebar and photos of
each plot are taken from the origin each monitoring year.
Precipitation data was collected using an Onset HOBO Data Logging Rain Gauge. Groundwater for
hydrologic success of restored wetlands was monitored using eight HOBO U20 Water Level Loggers. An
additional logger was installed on site, above ground, for use as a barometric reference. Data loggers
collected depth to groundwater daily and all data were processed using HOBOware and analyzed using
Microsoft Excel. Bankfull events were documented with two crest gauges, one each being located on
Cochran Branch and Parrish Branch. During quarterly visits to the site, the height of the corkline was
recorded and cross-referenced with known bankfull elevations at each crest gauge.
