1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY / PROJECT ABSTRACT
1.1 Project Goals and Objectives
The goals of this nutrient offset mitigation project are to:
Improve the overall water quality and aquatic habitat in and around the unnamed tributary of
the Neuse River by reducing nutrient and sediment loads into the streams caused by
agricultural influences,
Improve the richness and diversity of the plant species within the conservation easement, and
Provide perpetual protection for the unnamed tributary to the Neuse River and associated
riparian and upland buffers.
These goals will be met through the following objectives:
• By establishing a native plant community to match the endemic plant species at the Bank Site,
• By reducing the quantities of exotic invasive species at the Bank Parcel through chemical
methods,
• By establishing a conservation easement to provide long-term protection for the Bank Site,
and
• By donation of the conservation easement and all of its interests, in perpetuity, to an
accredited or approved land trust or stewardship program.
1.2 Project Background
Located off of Arrington Bridge Road, at its intersection with John Street in Goldsboro, North
Carolina (Figure 1, Appendix A) is the Neuse buffer and nutrient offset restoration area previously
referred to as the Wayne County Development Alliance Bank Parcel and currently known as the
Arrington Bridge Bank Parcel (hereafter referred to as the Bank Site). The Bank Site was proposed to
be developed in two (2) phases: Phase I and Phase H. According to the Wayne County
Development Alliance Bank Parcel Development Package (BPDP, EcoEngineering, April 2012), Phase
I consisted of Parcel Numbers 2598449002 and is located at the northwest corner of the intersection
of Arrington Bridge Road and John Street. Phase H consisted of Parcel Numbers 2598632250 (located
at the northeast corner of the intersection of Arrington Bridge road and John Street) and 2598543857
(located north of Parcel Number 2598449002, along the west side of John Street, and is separated from
Parcel Number 2598449002 by a railroad easement and utility line easement). Since approval of the
BPDP, only a portion of Parcel Number 2598632250 was developed and dedicated to Phase II. The
Arrington Bridge Bank Parcel Neuse Riparian Buffer and Nutrient Offset Mitigation Site Phase H As -
Built Report (McAdams Company, April 27, 2015) describes that portion of land developed for Phase
II. Based on the Arrington Bridge Bank Parcel Neuse Riparian Buffer and Nutrient Offset Mitigation
Site Phase II As -Built Report (McAdams Company, April 27, 2015), Parcel Number 2598543857 was
not developed as part of Phase II. Because the approved BPDP allowed development to occur on
Parcel Number 2598543857, it was decided that development on Parcel Number 2598543857 would
be dedicated to Phase I. Figure 2.1 (Appendix A) is the signed and sealed Conservation Easement
(CE) platted for Phase I. Figure 2.3 (Appendix A) is provided to illustrate the Phase I CE as approved
in the BPDP.
Since approval of the BPDP, a portion of Parcel Number 2598427606 has also been added to Phase I;
this portion of Phase I will hereafter be referred to as Phase I Expansion. Parcel Number
2598427606 (Phase I Expansion) is located south of Parcel Number 2598449002, along the south side
of Arrington Bridge Road. On October 15, 2014, staff from the Division of Water Resources (DWR)
authorized approval to this additional area to Phase I, and it is referred to as Phase I Expansion.
Figure 2.2 (Appendix A) is the signed and sealed CE platted for Phase I Expansion.
Arrington Bridge I — Riparian Buffer & Nutrient Offset Mitigation Site Monitoring Report: Year 2
DWQ # 2008-1473v.4 February 2017

The total signed and sealed Conservation Easement for both Phase I and Phase I Expansion of the
Bank Site consists of +_43.512 acres (Figures 2.1 and 2.2, Appendix A). Figures 2.4 and 2.5
(Appendix A) are provided to illustrate the constructed Phase I and Phase I Expansion
Conservation Easements with aerials.
The purpose of this Bank Site is to improve water quality within the Neuse River watershed by
providing off-site mitigation for development (both existing and proposed) requiring stream buffer
mitigation and nutrient offset credits.
As shown on the easement plat (Figure 2.1, Appendix A), the CE for Phase I of the Bank Site is
38.886 acres (1,693,874.16 sf). Within the Phase I CE, 0.99 acres (43,124.4 sf) is dedicated to 0' to
50' of the Neuse Riparian Buffer and 0.981 acres (42,732.36 sf) is dedicated to 50' to 100' of the
Neuse Riparian Buffer. Therefore, a total of 1.971 acres (85,856.76 sf) is dedicated to Neuse
Riparian Buffer. A total of 31.558 acres (1,374,666.48 sf) is dedicated to Nutrient Offset Credits for
nitrogen. Therefore, there are 5.357 acres (233,350.92 sf) of the Phase I Expansion CE that are not
dedicated to either Neuse Riparian Buffer Credits or Nutrient Offset Credits.
The Bank Site Service Area is contained within 8 -digit USGS HUC 03020201. Stormwater runoff
from the Bank Site drains into an unnamed tributary of the Neuse River (Stream Index #27-(56)).
According to the N.C. Division of Water Resources Basinwide Information Management System
(BIMS), the Neuse River is classified as Class C and NSW (Nutrient Sensitive Waters) in this
location. The "C" classification is for "waters protected for uses such as secondary recreation,
fishing, wildlife, fish consumption, aquatic life including propagation, survival and maintenance of
biological integrity, and agriculture" while the NSW designation is for "Nutrient Sensitive Waters".
This Bank Site shall be established under the terms and conditions of the EBX Neuse Riparian
Buffer Umbrella Mitigation Bank (Bank) made and entered into by EBX Neuse I, LLC (EBX), acting
as the Bank Sponsor, and the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources -
Division of Water Quality (DWQ), and was entered into by the parties on November 10, 2008. The
North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources is now hereby referred to as The
North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ). The Division of Water Quality is now
hereby referred to as Division of Water Resources (DWR).
1.3 Vegetation Condition
Current stem counts (i.e. a stem is defined as a single living tree) were calculated using vegetation
plot monitoring data. Success will be defined as the survival of a minimum density of 320 planted trees
per acre after five (5) years. Monitoring Year 2 field activities were conducted on December 8, 2016. As
of Monitoring Year 2, Phase I of the Bank Site had eight (8) plots encompassing 0.1977 acres, containing
59 planted stems and 8 different species, which yielded a density of 299 planted stems per acre. For Phase
I Monitoring Year 2, the planted vegetation survival density threshold was not met for 6 of the 8
Vegetation Monitoring Plots (Vegetation Plots 2, 3, 4, 9, 10, and 11). Vegetation Plots 1 and 5 exceeded
the survival density threshold with of 445 and 567 stems per acre respectively. Phase I Expansion had
three (3) plots encompassing 0.0741 acres, containing 26 planted stems, which yielded a density of 351
planted stems per acre. For Phase I Expansion Monitoring Year 2, the planted vegetation survival
threshold was met for Vegetation Plots 6 and 7. During annual monitoring activities, Vegetation Plot 8
contained 0 stems once again due to easement encroachment mowing, and thus did not meet the success
criteria. Vegetation Plot 8 area was re-established and replanted in May 2016 to a stem density of 1,575
stems per acre (39 stems); however, as stated, easement mowing activities yielded in 0 stems sampled in
Vegetation Plot 8. It should be noted that easement encroachment located in the Phase I Expansion area is
not associated with the project landowner or RES. An adjacent third party landowner is expected to be
the cause of encroachment problems. Figure 4 in Appendix A documents easement encroachment areas
Arrington Bridge I — Riparian Buffer & Nutrient Offset Mitigation Site Monitoring Report: Year 2
DWQ # 2008-1473v.4 February 2017

observed during Monitoring Year 2 activities. On December 8, 2016, CVS Level 2 was performed in
Year 2 to document any volunteer generation. A total of 0 volunteers were observed across all 11
vegetation plots. Year 2 monitoring recorded an average of 313 planted stems per acre for the entire
Arrington Bridge I Site. Arrington Bridge Phase I yielded an average of 299 planted stems per acre during
Year 2 monitoring activities. The Phase I Expansion Area documented an average of 351 planted stems
per acre.
Former easement encroachments documented during MY - 2015 activities within Phase I and Phase I
Expansion were remediated during late 2015 and early 2016. Phase I encroachments consisted of
mowing and tilling along the western CE boundary. The encroachments damaged Phase I CE markers, the
Photo Station Number 5 marker, and the markers for Vegetation Plot 10. In mid-October 2015, RES
planted 3 -gallon container trees along the easement edge and posted additional easement marking signs.
Larger trees were planted and flagged along the boundary to provide a visual boundary between the
agriculture fields and the conservation easement. A supplemental replant was performed within the
easement encroachment areas and across any low density areas. For Phase I Expansion, easement
encroachment mowing activities were present during MY1 along the eastern CE boundary. The
encroachment damaged Phase I Expansion CE markers and the markers for Vegetation Plot 8. Additional
conservation easement markers were installed and Vegetation Plot 8 was re-established. As previously
mentioned above, this area was replanted to a density of 1,575 stems per acre in early 2016; however,
mowing continued within the area. An adaptive management plan is provided in Appendix D to
document RES' plan to remedy Phase I Expansion encroachments. During the time of adaptive
management activities, RES plans to perform a supplemental replant in low survival density areas across
the site with 3 -year old trees. It is assumed the supplemental replanted performed in May 2016 had low
survival rates due to abundant herbaceous cover and sandy soil conditions. RES anticipates that planting
larger trees will result in better survival since they will be above the herbaceous layer. Figure 4 in
Appendix A depicts the approximate areas of encroachment into the Phase I Expansion CE.
Approximately 0.44 acres (19,200 W) of easement was mowed within Phase I Expansion during MY2 —
2016. No additional areas of encroachment were documented during MY2 activities in Phase I.
2.0 METHODOLOGY
2.1 Vegetation Monitoring Plots
All monitoring methodologies follow the most current templates and guidelines provided by NC DMS
(EEP, 2010; EEP, 2011). Baseline vegetation monitoring was conducted in accordance with CVS-EEP
Protocol for Recording Vegetation (CVS-EEP, v4.2). Table 1 (Appendix C) provides a success summary
for each vegetation monitoring plot. Based on the Year 2 vegetation monitoring, four (4) of the eleven
(11) monitoring plots were above the five (5) year monitoring period requirement. Table 2 (Appendix C)
provides a stem count total and planted stem total by each individual vegetation plot.
Vegetation monitoring plots were photographed and are located in Appendix B. Vegetation Monitoring
Plot Data Sheets are provided in Appendix C. Each Vegetation Monitoring Plot Data Sheet provides
measurements, location, and vigor of each planted species within a respective vegetation monitoring plot.
2.2 Photo Stations
Photographic documentation is a key essential to monitoring the success of the Bank Parcel. Digital
photographs provide a visual assessment of the vegetation conditions. Seven photo stations are located
across the Arrington Bridge I easement and are visited each year during annual monitoring activities.

For Phase I Ex ansion easement encroachment mowin activities were resent

during MY along the eastern CE boundary. The encroachment damaged Phase I
Expansion CE markers and the markers for Vegetation Plot 8. Additional
conservation easement markers were installed and Vegetation Plot 8 was re-
established. The encroachment area was replanted to a density of 1,575 stems per acre
in early 2016; however, mowing continued within the area. It should be noted that
easement encroachment located in the Phase I Expansion area is not associated with
the project landowner or RES. An adjacent third party landowner is the cause of
encroachment problems. RES has taken action to remedy the encroachment problem
by sending the adjacent landowner a certified letter informing them they have violated
the conservation easement multiple times by mowing and removing easement
signage. RES is planning to install approximately 650 linear feet of woven wire fence
along the outer conservation easement boundary to prevent future easement
encroachment in the Phase I Expansion area. The attached Figure 1 shows the proposed areas of

fence installation and supplemental replanting areas. The proposed fence installation is planned for
early March 2017. Once the easement boundary is re-established and fencing is installed, RES will
plant this area during the 2017 supplemental replanting activities. Vegetation Plot 8 will be re-
established and documented accordingly.
RES plans to perform the above mentioned adaptive management activities by early May 2017. Once work
is completed, RES will provide written notification to NCDWR along with photo documentation to inform
work has been completed.
