_October 9, 2009 and modified on February 17, 2014. Supporting figures can be found in Appendix A.
1.1 Parcel Location
The Maple View Parcel is located in Orange County in Hillsborough, NC (Figure 1). Within the Parcel,
a section of Morgan Creek and two unnamed tributaries traverse the site and exhibit diminished habitat
value as a result of past and on-going agricultural activities and impervious watershed conditions. The
Parcel is located within the Upper New Hope Arm of the B. Everett Jordan Lake watershed USGS 14 -
digit HUC 03030002060070 and North Carolina Division of Water Resources (NC DWR) Sub -basin
Number 03-06-06.
The site is located near the intersection of Green Rise Road and Dairyland Road (SR 1177). The site is on
the south side of Dairyland Road with the main drainage feature flowing west to east. The coordinates of
the site are 35.973056°N and -79.147778°W.
1.2 Parcel Overview
The conservation easement on the Maple View T�4ie M Parceltotals
approximately 7.63 acres and includes two unnamed tributaries., and-sStormwater runoff from adjacent
land tflows directly to Morgan Creek. The Parcel is located in an area dominated by agriculture,
livestock, and residential land use. There is a dairy operation on the north side of Dairyland Roadbut. A
majority of the Parcel is utilized for row -crop production. Land use in the project area is hay field, row
crops, and existing riparian forest. No livestock are on the Bank Parcel, thereforeT4yn:e is livestock
access is not a concernto the project area.
The Maple View Nutrient Offset Mitigation Bank is proposed to provide water quality benefits through
elimination of nutrient intensive agricultural practices and re -forestation of riparian areas that extend out
to 200 feet from the stream channels. The riparian restoration activities within the Parcel will result in
improved water quality within the downstream watershed. Unnamed Tributary "A" is a perennial channel
which flows in an easterly direction along the southern project boundary. Unnamed Tributary `B" is a
perennial channel which flows in a southerly direction to its confluence with unnamed tributary "A".
Unnamed Tributary "C" is a perennial channel flowing in a southerly direction to its confluence with UT-

2 PROJECT AREA — EXISTING CONDITIONS
2.1 Physiography
The Parcel is in the Piedmont Physiographic Province of North Carolina, specifically within the Carolina
Slate Belt ecoregion. A review of the Ecoregions of North Carolina and South Carolina (Griffith et
al., 2002) shows the geology in the area of the property is comprised of "mineral -rich
metavolcanic and metasedimentary rocks with slately cleavage," which is finer grained and less
metamorphosed than other eco -regions within the Piedmont. It is also common for streams to dry up,
along with low yielding wells. Elevations range from 154 to 172 feet above mean sea level (NAD 27)
based upon USGS mapping (Figure 2). The Site's tributaries form the headwaters of Morgan Creek.
Within the proposed mitigation area, the channels drain surface water and groundwater from the
surrounding agricultural areas.
2.2 Soils
Based on Orange County soil survey mapping (USDA 1977), the Parcel contains three soil series:
Chewacla loam, Goldston slaty silt loam, and Herndon silt loam. (Figure 5). The soil series found on
the site are described below and summarized in Table 1.

Chewacla loam. This is a somewhat poorly drained soil found on floodplains of streams. It has
moderate permeability and negligible to low runoff. This soil typically floods frequently for brief
periods. The seasonal high water table ranges from 6 to 24 inches below the surface. It has sometime has
clayey subsoil. Uses are for pasture, cropland, and forest. This soil is considered prime farmland when
drained. This soil is considered to have hydric inclusions by the NRCS.
Maple View Parcel Development Plan
Nutrient Offset Site 3 April 2016

Goldston slay silt loam. This well drained soil occurs on side slopes adjacent to major drainage ways,
with mapped areas typically being narrow bands. The underlying material, extending to a depth of 24
inches, is mottled pale brown saprolite that crushes to silt loam. The permeability of is moderately
rapid, and the potential for crop production is low. The soil has medium potential for broad leaved and
needle leaved trees.
Herndon silt loam. The Herndon series consists of very deep well drained moderately permeable soils
that formed in material mostly weatehered from fine grained metavolcanic rock of the Carolina Slate
Belt. It occurs on broad ridges and (2 to 6 percent slopes) narrow side slopes (6 to 10 percent slopes) on
uplands. Most of this soil is used as cropland, but it has high potential for broad leaved and needle
leaved trees.
2.3 Vegetation
Vegetative communities within the Bank Parcel can be grouped into two distinct vegetative
communities. These two vegetative communities can be generally characterized as a Piedmont Alluvial
Forest, according to the North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NIP) classification system (Schafale
and Weakley, 1990) classification system and pasturelandagriculture. Dawe lan Agricultural areas are
subject to periodic mowing and crop production (i.e. hay and orn productionb. The dominant grasses - - Commented [MK3]: It was in corn when t was therein zots
tend to be bermuda grass (Cynodon dactylon) and various fescue species (Festuca sp.). Adjacent to the

communities. Dominant species noted within these communities include various oak species (Quercus
sp.), river birch (Betula nigra), American elm (Ulmus Americana), tulip poplar (Liriodendron
tulipifera), various hickory species (Carya spp.), red mapl (Acer ruhrum), and sweet gum (Liquidamhar
styraciflua).
2.4 Threatened and Endangered Species
Plants and animals with a federal classification of endangered (E) or threatened (T) are protected under
provisions of Sections 7 and 9 of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended. The US Fish and
Wildlife Service database (updated 22 September 2010) lists three endangered species for Orange
County, North Carolina: dwarf wedgemussel (Alasmidonta heterodon), Michaux's sumac (Rhus
mixhauxii), and smooth coneflower (Echinacea laevigata) (Table 2). The Bald eagle (Haliaeetus
leucocephalus) is protected under the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act (BGPA) and prohibits take
of bald and golden eagles. No protected species or potential habitat for protected species was observed
during preliminary site evaluations.
In addition to the USFWS database, the NC Natural Heritage Program (NHP) GIS database was
consulted to determine whether previously cataloged occurrences of protected species were mapped
within one mile of the project site. Results from NHP indicate that there are no known occurrences of
state threatened or endangered species within a one -mile radius of the project area. Based on initial site
investigations, no impacts to state protected species are anticipated as a result of the proposed project.

2.5 Environmental and Cultural Constraints
Environmental and cultural resources include historic and archeological resources located in or near the
project parcel. EBX has evaluated the Parcel's existing and future conditions of cultural resources to
determine potential project impacts. The evaluation focused primarily on the presence of hazardous
materials, utilities and restrictive easements, rare/threatened/endangered species or critical habitats,
cultural resources, and the potential for hydrologic trespass. A review of the North Carolina State
Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) GIS Web Service database did not reveal any listed or potentially
eligible historic or archeological resources in the proposed project area. No architectural structures or
archeological artifacts have been observed or noted during surveys of the site for restoration purposes.
2.6 FEMA Floodplain/Floodway Mapping
Hydrologic trespass is a not a concern for this project. The Maple View Site is not located within a
FEMA 100 year floodway (Figure 6). While designing the Maple View project, appropriate measures
were taken to eliminate hydrologic trespass of the adjacent agricultural fields and animal operations. The
adjacent land use will not be affected by the proposed design, and the property owners have been
notified of any potential impacts from hydrologic trespass within existing ditches. No detrimental _ - - Commented [MKS]: what does this mean? Plugging, filling? It

3 RESTORATION PLAN
3.1 Nutrient Offset Restoration Activities
The primary goals associated with the nutrient offset restoration plan include improving water quality,
enhancing flood attenuation, and restoring wildlife habitat through the creation/restoration-acrd
enhancement of a -forested riparian buffer areas adjacent to stream channels within the Parcel. The
restoration of natural plant communities within the Parcel will not only provide stabilization and
improve water quality within the easement limits, but also provide ecological benefits to the entire
watershed.
The majority of the site has been previously maintained as a cleared agricultural field for hay and corn
production. As such, these areas are relatively clear and require little site preparation other than select
herbicide treatment and soil preparation (i.e. ripped and scarified). The bu€fv�riparian areas will be
planted with native bare root tree seedlings on an 8 by 8 foot spacing to achieve an initial density of 680
trees per acre. The buffered channels will provide water quality and habitat functions within the sensitive
Maple View Parcel Development Plan
Nutrient Offset Site 5 April 2016

Jordan Lake watershed. Some areas adjacent to the forested areas may require maintenance due to the
rapid regeneration of some species. Rapidly regenerating species and invasive species may develop
greater individual species density and create a less diverse mix. Minimal maintenance is anticipated due
to the past cultivation history.
^�r-ice Riparian restoration will begin at the outer limits of the existing tree lines and extend out to 200
feet from the top of bank from reaches A, B and C (Figure 8). Approximately 3 acres of mature forest
will be protected within the conservation easement, but no buffer or nutrient offset credits will be
generated.
3.2 Planting Plan
Revegetation of the site will include planting bare root trees and controlling invasive species growth.
Piedmont Alluvial Forest will be the target community type and will be used for all areas within the
project. The community is defined by Schafale and Weakely (1990). The initial planting of bare root
trees will occur in late Fall 2016 Tree species specified for planting on the Maple View Site are shown
in Table 3.

3.3 Easement Boundaries and Fencing
Easement boundaries will be identified in the field to ensure clear distinction between the Parcel and
adjacent properties. Boundaries may be identified by 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. No livestock is currently accessing the
site and no fencing is proposed. The easement boundary will be checked annually as part of monitoring
activities and reported to NC DWR.
4 _MONITORING AND MAINTENANCE PLAN
4.1 Monitoring Protocol and Success Criteria
The Sponsor shall submit to NCDWR an annual monitoring fepoft for each phase, no later than December
31 of each year for five consecutive years. Reports will document the success of the vegetation and any
maintenance, supplemental planting of encfoachment within the easement areas. Riparian buffer vegetation

monitoring will be based on the CVS-EEP Protocol for Recording Vegetation Level 1-2 Plot Sampling
Only Version 4.0. Annual vegetation monitoring will occur each year during the fall season with the first
year occurring at least 5 months from initial planting. Permanent Vv_egetation monitoring plots will be a
minimum of 100 mz in size, and cover at least two percent of the planted area throughout the 5 years of
monitoring. A fefefence photo will be taken from one comer of each plot. All planted stems in the plots will
be mofked with flagging tape and fecofded. rThe following data will be recorded for alllap nted trees in the , , Commented [MK7]: Approximately how many Plots?
plots: species, height, planting date (or volunteer), and grid location. The measures of vegetative success
for the Parcel will be the survival of at least 320 planted trees per acre at the end of Year 5. Natural recruits
will not count towards annual success criteria; however, they may be taken into account during review by
the NC DWR._ Invasive and noxious species will be monitored and controlled so that none become
dominant or alter the desired community structure of the site. Initial plant maintenance may include a one-
time mowing in any of the planted riparian areas that are within the Jordan Lake Riparian Buffer as defined
in 15A NCAC 02B .0267Zone A and mowing as needed within planted areas outside of the riparian buffer
in Zones B and /�a C to remove undesirable species in the restoration areas. If necessary, EBX will develop
a species-specific control plan.
Monitoring bonds shall be fenewed with confirmation of fenewal pfovided to DWR with each annual
monitoring fepoft. DWR fesefves the fight to altef the cfedit feleose schedule if monitoring fepofts afe
submitted without pfoof of bond fenewals.
4.2 Adaptive Management Plan
In the event that the site, or a specific component of the site, fails to achieve the defined success criteria,
EBX will develop necessary adaptive management plans and/or implement appropriate remedial actions
for the site in coordination with the NC DWR. Remedial actions will be designed to achieve the success
criteria specified previously, and will include identification of the causes of failure, remedial design
approach, work schedule, and monitoring criteria that will take into account physical and climatic
conditions.
