Sage Gut Swamp Mitigation Site
Pungo River, 03020104110020
Beaufort County, North Carolina - July 2008
Sage Gut Wetland and Stream Mitigation
1.0 Introduction and Site Location
Albemarle Restorations, LLC (AR), in partnership with PCS Phosphate Company, Inc.
(PCS) has selected the property owned by Thad E. Tankard Jr. Holding, LLC, c/o Thad
E. Tankard Jr. for the restoration of up to 5,401 linear feet of swamp run, 71.1 acres of
riparian wetland, 40.2 acres of non-riparian wetland, 8.0 acres of riparian buffer, and the
preservation of 856 linear feet of stream and 2.02 acres of wetland. The Tankard property
is located on State Road 1717 (Hoff Road) near Winsteadville, Beaufort County, North
Carolina. Exhibit A is a vicinity map showing the site location. An option agreement has
been executed between AR and the current owner of the site for the purchase and
ultimate conservation easement recordation of the project area by Albemarle
Restorations, LLC. This option agreement has been recorded in the Land Records of
Beaufort County, North Carolina in Deed Book 1615, Pages 533-536. The mitigation
project is proposed to be part of the overall compensatory mitigation for the PCS Mine
Continuation Environmental Impact Statement, dated May 2008.
The Tankard Property is located within the Pungo River sub-watershed (USGS Catalog
Unit 03020104110020). Exhibit B shows the proposed 132 acre project's location within
• the watershed. The current USGS topographic map, Exhibit C, and the Beaufort County
Soil Survey, Exhibit D, show the proposed stream restoration sites as headwater streams
to Sage Gut, a tributary to Jack Creek, which flows to Pungo Creek. The site has been
chosen in part because it is located in close proximity to the Pamlico/Pungo River
estuary, it is suitable for swamp run (headwater riparian system), riparian buffer, and
riparian and non-riparian wetland restoration, and the ability exists to preserve existing
natural stream corridors adjacent to proposed restoration areas to create a large
contiguous restored system. The project is located in the Pamlico Hydrologic Unit
03020104 and more specifically within the Pungo Creek watershed. Historical aerial
photographs (Exhibits E-1, E-2 & E-3) reveal the site was previously drained by an
extensive network of wooded swamp runs. Additionally, the site was selected because of
the presence of hydric soils, and the extensive drainage system designed to provide
surface and subsurface drainage of highly degraded headwater streams and wetlands.
Previous site visits also revealed high water marks from frequent overbank flooding and
widespread wet soil conditions.
2.0 Project Goals and Objectives
The baseline goals of the proposed project are to create naturally functioning headwater
systems with braided diffuse flow patterns across a narrow floodplain of riparian wooded
wetlands and buffers, surrounded by forested wetland flats, similar to unaltered coastal
plain headwater stream systems. The relatively low valley slope is indicative of historical
• riparian wetlands adjacent to the swamp runs. The headwater riparian system to be

Sage Gut Swamp Mitigation Site
Pungo River, 03020104110020
Beaufort County, North Carolina - July 2008
• utilized as swamp run restoration will be restored in the bases of the shallow drainage
valleys found on site. Adjacent to the headwater riparian systems, riparian and non-
riparian wetlands will be restored by minimal grading to remove field crowns, manmade
drainage patterns, and restore wetland hydrology. Additional goals are to provide water
quality improvement through sediment, toxicant, and nutrient retention and reduction,
organic matter production and export, groundwater recharge, production and export of
food sources, enhancement of wildlife habitat, some degree of floodflow attenuation, and
recreational opportunities.
The conversion of the land in the restoration project area from active agricultural crop
fields to a diverse forested stream and wetland complex will virtually eliminate any
sediment, nutrient and toxicant loading from the project site because of the removal of
sediment and nutrient sources associated with agricultural uses. In addition, shading
provided by forest cover will reduce algae growth, and associated low dissolved oxygen
levels in surface water moving through the site. By grading the site to create a continuous
headwater swamp run/riparian wetland complex and planting the entire area with woody
vegetation and a native wetland seed mix, the project will slow overland runoff flow rates
and provide storage and desynchronization of overland flow before it reaches Sage Gut, a
tributary to the Pungo River running through the south-central portion of the property.
The plant species chosen for the project will be native to the area, and an emphasis will
• be placed on planting species that will provide a viable, yearlong food source for a wide
range of animal and plant species. Surrounding areas are home to wild turkey, whitetail
deer, raccoon, squirrel, fox, migrating waterfowl, and a wide variety of amphibian and
reptile species, and the project is intended provide food and habitat to complement and
enhance the existing ecosystem. The project will add acreage to the Pungo River wetland
network, and nutrient attenuation and uptake by dense vegetation interspersed with
shallow diffuse flows will help reduce the amount of nutrient contamination in receiving
waters, thus improving downstream habitat. Improving water quality will enhance
fishing, hunting, bird watching, and other forms of passive recreational use on the site as
well as in adjacent areas. Earthwork is proposed to occur in 2009, with tree planting in
early 2010.
3.0 General Watershed Description
The project is located in the Pungo River sub-basin 03-03-07 and more specifically
within the Pungo Creek watershed, which is listed as impaired in the aquatic life category
according to the "2004 Tar-Pamlico River Basinwide Water Quality Plan." The same
literature also notes excessive chlorophyll-a and low pH in Pungo Creek, and
recommends efforts "to reduce nutrient loading into Pungo Creek that may be causing
algal blooms that result in exceedances of the chlorophyll-a standard." The following
information was extrapolated from the Tar-PamlicoRiver Basinwide Water Quality Plan,
2004. Lower Pungo Creek is also a Special Secondary Nursery Area (SSNA) designated
• by the North Carolina Division of Marine Fisheries (Exhibit F). Forest/wetlands
constitute 55.5% of the land area in Sub-basin 03-03-07, while 25.5% is agricultural, and
PCS Compensatory Mitigation Plan 2 Hell Swamp/Scott Creek Watershed
Sage Gut Swamp Mitigation Site
Pungo River, 03020104110020
Beaufort County, North Carolina - July 2008
• 17.5% is surface water. In 2000, the population in this 1,192 square mile sub-basin was
estimated at 44,232 people.
4.0 Existing Site Conditions
The project site is currently in agricultural row crop production. The use of the site as
agricultural crop fields has the potential to cause excessive nutrient and sediment loading
on the adjacent tributaries and downstream water resources, which is a source of
degradation to the receiving waters. Exhibit G is a series of photos taken during a site
visit, showing the site and ditches created to drain the former wetland areas for
agriculture. Extensive ditching and drainage manipulation has been performed in the past
to drain the site sufficiently to allow agricultural uses. Historical aerial photographs,
provided as Exhibits E-1, E-2 and E-3, showing site conditions in 1964, 1979 and 1998,
as well as topography shown on the design sheets, clearly show a discernible valley and
dendritic system of contributing forested swamp run tributaries draining the site. The
current site photos in Exhibit G show typical existing conditions within the proposed
project area, including the channelized mainstem of Sage Gut on-site and several of the
ditched tributaries proposed for restoration. It should be noted that although the ditched
tributaries shown in Photos 2 and 3 of Exhibit G do not exhibit flow, these photos were
taken in fall 2007 during an extended drought period, and these ditches clearly show
evidence of frequent flow under normal conditions, including alluvial deposition and
• pronounced ordinary high water mark indicators.
Virtually no native vegetation exists within the proposed project areas on the site, which
is seasonally dominated by planted cotton. Any native vegetation present is incidental
and on a scale that is not measurable for the purposes of this report. Prior to 1979, the
site was forested according to the current landowner.
4.1 Soils
Soils in the proposed restoration area examined in winter of 2007 exhibited strong
hydric indicators, including deep gray color, and saturated soil conditions have
been widespread on the site during past site visits. The majority of the site soils
are mapped in the United States Department of Agriculture, Natural Resource
Conservation Service (MRCS) publication Soil Survey of Beaufort County, North
Carolina (September, 1995) with the Tomotley Series and Roanoke Series, with
the Altavista (non-hydric), Cape Fear, Muckalee, and Portsmouth Series also
mapped within smaller portions of the project site (Exhibit E). With the exception
of the Altavista series, these mapped soils are all listed as hydric on the North
Carolina Hydric Soils List. The following soils information is derived from the
Soil Survey of Beaufort County, North Carolina:
Altavista fine sandy loam is a moderately well drained soil and is formed from
• loamy marine and fluvial sediments that occur on stream and marine terraces.
Areas with this soil are usually long and narrow and range from 4 to 20 acres.

Sage Gut Swamp Mitigation Site
Pungo River, 03020104110020
Beaufort County, North Carolina - July 2008
• This soil is sandy in nature and slopes range from 0-2 percent. Permeability and
available water capacity are moderate. The seasonal high water table during the
winter and early spring is apparent at a depth of 1.5 to 2.5 feet. Inclusions consist
of the well drained Conetoe and State soils and the somewhat poorly drained
Augusta soils which consist of about 15% of mapped areas. Forested areas for
this soil support mixed hardwoods including loblolly pine, sweet gum, white oak,
dogwood, American holly, and red maple. Additionally, the Altavista Series is
known to normally contain streams according to the information paper provided
by the US Army Corps of Engineers, Wilmington District, Regulatory Division
and the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources,
Division of Water Quality, entitled Information Regarding Stream Restoration in
the Outer Coastal Plain of North Carolina Version 2 (April 4, 2007). The +/-
0.81 acre area of Altavista soil which occurs within the easement boundary is not
included in any of the restoration acreage totals.
The Cape Fear fine sandy loam is a very poorly drained soil found in shallow
depressions on low marine terraces with a slope that ranges from 0 to 2 percent.
The areas where this soil occurs usually range from 120 to more than 200 acres in
size and are irregular in shape. It has a slow permeability and a moderate or high
water capacity with a seasonably high water table during the winter and early
spring within a depth of 1.5 feet. This soil supports forested areas of mixed
• hardwoods and pine species such as water tupelo, willow oak, bald cypress,
loblolly pine, southern bayberry, and inkberry. Wetness and slow permeability
are the limitations for the Cape fear fine sandy loam.
The Muckalee Series is frequently flooded for brief periods and is a poorly
drained soil found on flood plains along small streams with a slope of 0 to 1
percent. Areas with this soil are 5 to 50 acres in size and are usually oblong in
shape. Permeability and available water capacity are moderate with a seasonal
high water table within 0.5 to 1.5 feet during the winter to early spring. Mixed
hardwoods and pines supported by this soil include bald cypress, sweetgum, green
ash, loblolly pine, ironwood, and inkberry. Flooding and wetness are the main
limitations for this soil. The Muckalee Series is also known to normally contain
streams according to the publication Information Regarding Stream Restoration
in the Outer Coastal Plain of North Carolina Version 2.
Portsmouth loam is a very poorly drained soil with a slope of 0 to 1 percent that is
found on broad flats and in shallow depressions on river and stream terraces.
These soils can be found in oblong areas that vary in size from 25 to 300 acres.
Available water capacity is moderate while the permeability is moderate in the
subsoil and rapid in the underlying material. During the winter and early spring
the seasonal high water table is apparent within a depth of 1 foot. This soil
supports forested areas with mixed hardwoods and pine species such as loblolly
pine, water oak, sweetgum, inkberry, redbay, and sweetbay.

• The Roanoke fine sandy loam is a poorly drained soil found on broad flats and
shallow depressions on river and stream terraces with slopes 0 to 1 percent. Areas
with this soil are irregular in shape and range from 10 to larger than 100 acres in
size. The permeability for this soil is slow and the available water capacity is
moderate with low areas susceptible to rare flooding. The seasonal high water
table is apparent within a depth of 1 foot during the winter and early spring. The
forested areas of this soil support mixed hardwoods and pine species such as
yellow-poplar, sweetgum, loblolly pine, American holly, and blueberry. The
main limitation of this soil is its wetness.
Tomotley fine sandy loam is found in shallow depressions on stream and marine
terraces and is a poorly drained soil with slopes of 0 to 1 percent. Areas with this
soil are irregular in shape and range from 5 to greater than 100 acres in size. The
available water capacity for this soil is high and permeability is moderate with a
seasonal high water table within a depth of 1 foot. Forested areas supported by
this soil contain mixed hardwoods and pine species including loblolly pine,
sweetgum, willow oak, southern bayberry, and large gallberry. The main
limitation for this soil type is wetness.
A detailed soil investigation has been conducted for the project site by Mr. Gene
Aston, a State of North Carolina Licensed Soil Scientist. The soils report letter
• and associated map documenting his findings are attached as Exhibit H. This
investigation revealed that soils occurring on-site were consistent with the
Altavista, Tomotley, Roanoke, and Portsmouth Series, and that the entire site is
underlain with hydric soils, with the exception of an approximately 0.81-acre area
underlain with the non-hydric Altavista series (Exhibit I). As part of his
investigation, Mr. Aston conducted a field determination of the approximate
limits of alluvial soils on the project site (Exhibit J). This mapping of alluvial
soils provides substantial corroboration and support of the information derived
from USGS, NRCS, and aerial mapping sources regarding the historic locations
and extents of streams on-site prior to the agricultural conversion. The map
included in Exhibit H was prepared by Mr. Aston and provides a graphic portrayal
of his findings.
4.2 Hydrology
The project site contains an interconnected network of drainage ditches. Exhibit
K shows the extent and direction of flow of all drainage ditches on the project
site. The hydrology of the project wetlands is to be derived from high water
tables, restored by eliminating the man-made drainage features, and from periodic
overbank flooding of the swamp runs. The ditches within the easement which are
north of Sage Gut will be filled to the proposed elevations shown on the plan
sheets in order to restore the water table to its historic range. These ditches
• currently flow into drainage ditches along the perimeter of the easement area.
The perimeter ditches and Sage Gut proper will not be altered in order to prevent
PCS Compensatory Mitigation Plan 5 Hell Swamp/Scott Creek Watershed

Pungo River, 03020104110020
Beaufort County, North Carolina - July 2008
• the backing of water onto adjacent properties and to maintain the drainage of
surrounding agricultural fields.
The proposed design also calls for the restoration of several swamp runs with
shallow banks within the site to restore natural drainage patterns to the project
site. The swamp run inverts are slightly depressed, broad flat drainage courses
with low gradients. The drainage ditch which flows into Sage Gut from the south
will not be filled but will be graded to produce the desired swamp run
morphology. The proposed grading required to restore swamp run morphology
will also eliminate the man-made field crowns.
4.3 Topography and Adjoining Land Uses
The topography of the project site is extremely flat, with slightly lower elevations
on the western and southern sides. Elevations of the project area vary from 5.0
feet to 6.0 feet at the bottom of the ditches and in Sage Gut, to 8.0 feet at the
highest points of the project area. Surrounding properties of the project site that
are within the project site's drainage area are mapped as agricultural fields or
timberland.
4.4 Threatened/Endangered Species
• A review of Beaufort County's Threatened and Endangered Species list shows
one threatened and five endangered species exist in the county. The Atlantic
species of the Kemp's Ridley sea turtle (Lepidochelys kempii) is one of the
endangered species which occurs in the county. Due to the project sites distance
from saltwater, neither a food source nor any suitable nesting habitat exists on the
property. The West Indian Manatee (Trichechus manatus) is also an endangered
species which occurs in Beaufort County but could not physically inhabit the
shallow waters on site due to their size. Red Wolves (Canis rufus) are another
endangered species occurring within the county but due to their experimental
population status, their presence cannot legally establish critical habitat. The red-
cockaded woodpecker (Picoides borealis) is listed as endangered in the county.
However, the mature stands of Longleaf pine which the woodpecker requires do
not exist anywhere on the property. The final endangered species found in the
county, Rough-leaved loosestrife (Lysimachia asperulaefolia), is only extant in
one location which is south of the Pamlico River. The only threatened species
found in Beaufort County is the sensitive joint-vetch (Aeschynomene virginica)
which is an inter-tidal species and therefore could not occur on site. A letter will
be sent to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Ecological Services Office and the
North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission requesting a project review for
coordination under the Endangered Species Act, the Fish and Wildlife
Coordination Act, and the Migratory Bird Treaty Act and the results will be
• provided.

• 4.5 Jurisdictional Wetlands
Aerial photographs reviewed from the Beaufort County Soil Conservation Office
for the years 1964, 1979 and 1998 (Exhibits E-1, E-2 & E-3) show that the
Tankard property was previously forested. According to the current property
owner, the land was converted to cropland between 1978 and 1980. The
extensive ditching and soil classes on site indicate that the project area was
historically a swamp run and wetland complex. As with other similar projects, an
application will be made to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (COE) and the
North Carolina Division of Water Quality when the Restoration Plan has been
completed and approved. Impacts to the stream/ditches are considered a
conversion of wetland type from waters to vegetated wetlands. Normally this
conversion and relocation of Waters is authorized under Nationwide Permit #27,
Stream and Wetland Restoration Activities. AR is presently coordinating a
jurisdictional determination with the US Army Corps of Engineers and the North
Carolina Division of Water Quality to verify the limits and extent of
jurisdictional resources on the site. Based upon the results of the jurisdictional
determination, the extent of proposed restoration activities will be refined, if
necessary.
• 4.6 Historic Preservation
On July 8, 2008 Ecotone, Inc. sent a letter (see Exhibit L) to the North Carolina
Department of Cultural Resources State Historic Preservation Office concerning
the subject site. The reply letter from the above agency will be made available
when it is received.
5.0 Restoration Plan
The proposed mitigation, as stated above, calls for the restoration of 5,401 linear feet of
swamp run, 71.1 acres of riparian wetlands, 40.2 acres of non-riparian wetlands, 8.0 acres
of riparian buffers, and the preservation of 856 linear feet of stream and 2.0 acres of
existing forested wetlands. The Restoration Plan Sheets, provided with this report shows
the conversion of existing cropland to non-tidal wetlands. Also shown is the restoration
of four natural headwater/swamp run communities with diffuse flow patterns and multi-
thread channels with a minimum drainage area of 25 acres (Exhibit M). The riparian
wetlands will be constructed within the existing valley slope and directly adjacent to the
headwater/swamp run communities and will interact hydrologically with the communities
in its entirety. On the northern portion of the project site, non-riparian wetlands will be
restored to function as non-riverine wet hardwood forests on broad flats consistent with
the historical natural state of the property.
• The headwater swamp run/riparian wetland grading will eliminate the farm drainage
ditches and result in a roughened surface to create diffuse flow patterns through what will

• ultimately be a wooded riparian corridor. The design criteria will be consistent with
recent information provided by the US Army Corps of Engineers, Wilmington District,
Regulatory Division and the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural
Resources, Division of Water Quality, entitled Information Regarding Stream
Restoration in the Outer Coastal Plain of North Carolina Version 2 (April 4, 2007).
Vegetation has been chosen to create diverse wetland communities including Cypress-
Gum Swamps and Bottomland Hardwood Forests, and Non-Riverine Wet Hardwood
Forests as described in the Classification of the Natural Communities of NC, 3rd
Approximation. Sage Gut would be identified in this publication as a Coastal Plain Small
Stream Swamp, blackwater subtype. In selecting vegetation, we have evaluated wetland
areas adjacent to the site and Dominant Plants for Major Wetland Types published by the
North Carolina Division of Water Quality. Consideration has been given to food source
and wildlife habitat potential in the final plant species selection.
5.1 Hydrologic Modifications
The goal of the proposed restoration plan is to create a continuous headwater
swamp run/riparian wetland system typically found in the middle to upper reaches
of first or zero order tributary systems by restoring to a more natural state the
channelized and straightened ditches bisecting the project site. The proposed
swamp runs will have a width ranging from 25 to 100 feet and an overall slope of
• 0.1 percent. The flow will be through a broad series of intertwined sinuous
micro-channels. The majority of the water flowing through the site under normal
conditions will be concentrated in the swamp runs by leaving the elevation on
average of 0.5 to 1.25 feet below the adjacent riparian wetlands. The target plant
community is a varied wetland forest surrounding a cypress-dominated swamp
that will provide a continuous forested and diverse greenway along the tributary.
Any invasive or exotic species found on the site while earth work is being
completed will be removed through physical and/or chemical means.
The site will consist of four swamp run/wetland systems surround by riparian
wetlands along with contiguous non-riparian wetlands located on the northern
portion of the site. The main source of inflow to the site is the ditch (Sage Gut)
entering from the eastern edge of the project area. The ditches on the southwest,
northwest, and northeast corners of the site also contribute flow. Throughout the
project area, the proposed restoration will include grading to create wide swamp
run morphology with a gradient of less than 0.5 percent slope and multiple
sinuous interconnected channels. Adjacent to the swamp run on both banks will
be riparian wetlands at an elevation between 0.5 and 1.25 feet above the mean
elevation of the swamp run. The design proposes swamp run elevations of 3.5 to
6.5 feet and riparian wetland elevations from 5.5 to 7.0 feet. Elevations for the
non-riparian wetlands on the northern part of the site will range from 7.25 to 7.5
feet. Periodic flooding from the swamp run, the seasonally high water table, and
• the extremely slow permeability of the soils will provide the ample hydrology for
the adjacent wetlands.

Beaufort County, North Carolina - July 2008

5.2 Soil Restoration
Soils found in the project area currently exhibit hydric characteristics and will
remain. Any topsoil required for removal during restoration will be stockpiled
and redistributed over disturbed areas. Because minimal grading is proposed,
some areas will not require the stockpiling of topsoil. Because sufficient organic
material appears to be present to a significant depth, no amendments are specified.
Any large woody debris encountered within the project area will be placed
throughout the created wetlands to add variety to soil conditions and encourage
diversity of volunteer species.
5.3 Plant Community Restoration
C7
The plant species chosen for the project are native to the area, with an emphasis
on species that will provide habitat and a viable, yearlong food source for a wide
range of animal and plant species. Surrounding areas are home to bear, whitetail
deer, raccoon, squirrel, fox, migrating waterfowl, and a wide variety of amphibian
and reptile species, and the project is intended to provide food and habitat to
complement and enhance the existing ecosystem. Hydrophytic species shown on
the planting plan were selected to create a diverse matrix of wetland communities
including shrub/scrub wetlands, areas of open water, emergent, and forested
wetlands. Invasive and exotic species will not be planted on the site. Any
invasive or exotic species found on the site will be removed through physical or
chemical means during the planting phase. In selecting vegetation, we have
considered reference riparian wetland areas adjacent to the site and "Dominant
Plants for Major Wetland Types" published by the North Carolina Department of
Environment and Natural Resources, Division of Water Quality. Sheet P-2
contains detailed planting and seeding schedules for the site. An average of 435
stems per acre are proposed for planting in both the swamp run and wetland
restoration areas.

•
PCS Compensatory Mitigation Plan 11 Hell Swamp/Scott Creek Watershed
Sage Gut Swamp Mitigation Site
Pungo River, 03020104110020
Beaufort County, North Carolina - July 2008
•
1. If needed, seedbed preparation shall consist of loosening soil to a depth
of 3-5" by means of suitable agricultural or construction equipment such
as disc harrows or chisel plows or rippers mounted in construction
equipment. After the soil is loosened it should not be rolled or dragged
smooth but left in the roughened condition. Sloped areas (Exceeding 3:1)
should be tracked leaving an irregular surface with ridges running parallel
to the contour of the slope.
2. Apply fertilizer and lime if required.
3. If required, incorporate lime and fertilizer into the top 3-5" of soil by
disking or other suitable means.
5.5.4 Seed Specification
All seed shall be free of noxious weeds. All seed shall be subject to re-
testing by a recognized seed laboratory. All seed shall have been tested
within the 6 months immediately preceding the date of sowing such
materials on this job. Seed tags shall be made available to the inspector to
verify type and rate of seed used.
5.5.5 Methods of Seeding
•
•
1. Dry seeding: This includes use of conventional drop or broadcast
spreaders.
a) Seed spread dry shall be incorporated into the subsoil at the rates
prescribed on the temporary or permanent seeding recommendations.
b) Where practical, seed should be applied in two directions perpendicular
to each other. Apply half the seeding rate in each direction.
2. Drill or cultipacker seeding: Mechanized seeders that apply and cover
seed with soil.
a) Cultipacking seeders are required to bury the seed in such a fashion as
to provide at least 1/4 inch of soil covering. Seedbed must be firm after
planting.
b) Where practical, seed should be applied in two directions perpendicular
to each other. Apply half the seeding rate in each direction.
6.0 Monitoring and Success Criteria
Following construction, As Built Drawings will be prepared for the site and submitted.
The site management plan will identify potential invasive species as defined in the
"North Carolina Noxious Weed List", identify site constraints, and provide for a two-part
control plan. The first part of the two-part plan will suppress the establishment of
noxious plants through eradication of existing species seen on site and installation of
sufficient densities of native woody and herbaceous species. The second part will be to
PCS Compensatory Mitigation Plan 12 Hell Swamp/Scott Creek Watershed
Sage Gut Swamp Mitigation Site
Pungo River, 03020104110020
Beaufort County, North Carolina - July 2008
• implement an early detection and rapid response program, to identify and remove
invasive species before they become established.
6.1 Swamp Run Monitoring
Monitoring of flow within the headwater swamp run system created on site will
be conducted for the entire 5 year period and will not be tied to the growing
season. Monitoring will consist of continuous water elevation documentation,
vegetation plot monitoring, and methods to assess flow patterns and duration of
inundation. Photographs and/or video footage of major flow events, to the extent
possible, will be included in each year's monitoring report.
Surface and sub-surface hydrology within the swamp run will be monitored using
continuous recording pressure transducer type water level loggers suspended in
monitoring wells within the limits of the swamp run. These wells shall be
arranged longitudinally up the lowest point in the valley to capture slope and will
consist of 3 wells per 1,000 feet of swamp run. Wells will be set perpendicular to
the valleys in the upper, middle, and lower portions of the valleys at specific
contours and will extend to the valley edge. Water table depth hydrographs in
conjunction with longitudinal profile/slope will be used as supporting evidence of
flow.
• Flow success will be based upon 2 documented flow events at any point in a
valley 3 years out of the 5 year monitoring period using normal rainfall periods.
These events will be used to calibrate, correlate, and infer flow of unobserved
events in well hydrographs. Linear feet of success will be determined by the most
upstream successful flow point. Additional supporting evidence of success shall
include photo documentation of sediment deposits, debris flows, (may GPS actual
event edges) and channel feature formation.
Vegetation plot sampling for the swamp runs will coincide with that of the
wetland vegetation plots and continue for the duration of the 5-year monitoring
period with success based upon a total of 320 trees per acre (TPA) at the end of
monitoring, in order to meet DWQ buffer success criteria.
6.2 Wetland Monitoring
Monitoring of the constructed wetlands shall take place during Beaufort County's
282 day growing season (February 28th-December 6`h). Monitoring of hydrology
on the restoration site will be completed using semi-continuous recording water
level loggers suspended in two-inch PVC monitoring wells. Due to the size and
extremely flat nature of the site, well density shall be one per twenty acres. The
wells will be arranged perpendicular to the valley axis and will be located to
• assess subsurface water levels at various elevations on the site planned as
PCS Compensatory Mitigation Plan 13 Hell Swamp/Scott Creek Watershed
Sage Gut Swamp Mitigation Site
Pungo River, 03020104110020
Beaufort County, North Carolina - July 2008
• seasonally saturated or temporarily flooded. Data will be downloaded from each
monitoring well monthly, and during each site visit hand measurements will be
taken to ensure the accuracy of the water level loggers. Groundwater elevation
data collected from each monitoring well will be presented relative to the ground
surface elevation at the well location in graph form. In addition to measurements
of sub-surface water elevations, a visual estimate of the extent of inundation will
also be made and documented. Hydrological success shall be based upon the
wells measuring at least a 6 percent hydroperiod within the non-riparian wetlands,
and X percent within riparian wetlands, during periods of normal rainfall.
Rainfall data will be collected on site through an event rainfall logger. This gauge
will be placed at the edge of the project site and will record rainfall intensity,
duration, time, and quantity. Collected rainfall data will be compared to normal
rainfall amounts to determine the deviation from climatologically normal rainfall
in the area. The normal rainfall amount for the site will be determined by using
the long term (PCS Phosphate maintains a 30 year record) monthly average to
develop a 3 month rolling average (weighted more heavily toward the current
month). The rainfall data will be assessed to determine degree to which
climatologic extremes (i.e. drought or excessive rainfall) affect project hydrology.
Vegetation monitoring plots will be 10 meter by 10 meter square, and installed to
• provide a representative sample of forested wetland communities. Plot density
will be such that at least 2 percent of the total planted area on site is sampled. The
initial plot sampling will occur following the completion of construction, with
successive vegetative monitoring occurring once per year for 5 years, or until the
site is deemed successful. Success density will be 260 planted trees per acre at
the end of monitoring. The annual monitoring report will be submitted by
February 1St each year.
6.3 Reference Stream Reach/Riparian Headwater System
The reference reach analysis performed on coastal headwater systems in NC by
Baker Engineering was used to develop an appropriate design approach for the
riparian headwater valleys on the Sage Gut site. These streams vary in slope,
watershed size, landscape location, riparian maturity, and soils, and therefore may
not be directly comparable to the conditions on the newly constructed Sage Gut
site. A well array will be installed on the poorly and moderately defined valley
segments on the UT to Bailey Creek and UT to South Creek reference sites, due
to their close proximity and similar landscape position. This well data will be
used to document surface water and flow events during the monitoring period.

Pungo River, 03020104110020
Beaufort County, North Carolina - July 2008
• Data collected from stream reference sites will be used as a guide to infer
and compare flow events of the mitigation site. Because of differences in
maturity and disturbance characteristics of the mitigation site, these data will not
be used for strict success or performance parameters.
6.4 Reference Forest Wetland
An approximately 34-acre mature forested portion of the Hell Swamp mitigation
site, located approximately 4.5 miles northwest of the Sage Gut site, provides a
reference forest for the upper portions of Sage Gut vegetation and hydrology.
Two years worth of hydrology data will have been collected for this site by the
time restoration monitoring is anticipated to begin, although 2007 was a severe
drought year. Michael P. Schafale, biologist with the NC Natural Heritage
Program, has identified this site as potentially one of the best remaining examples
of the nonriverine wet hardwood forests depending on fate of other comparable
sites. Although "fairly small", this forest is in "excellent condition".
7.0 Adaptive Management Strategies
Principles of adaptive management have become increasingly used as a tool to elevate the
• likelihood of success of wetland mitigation projects throughout the United States. Since
ecosystem behavior and natural disturbances cannot always be accurately predicted nor
can human mistakes always be identified in advance, adaptive management provides a
somewhat formalized process for the iterative and interactive approach to assessment and
management of wetland mitigation projects. However, adaptive management does not
equate to perpetual maintenance.
7.1 Adaptive Management
Certain expected natural hazards which might affect successful restoration are
fire, flood, erosion, invasive species, and herbivory. Construction mistakes could
also affect performance and function of the restored area. Strategies to minimize
effects from natural hazards and human mistakes include:
¦ Any flooding from beaver activity will be noted during the monitoring
period and beavers will be removed by trapper(s).
¦ Sections affected by wildfire during the monitoring period will be assessed
for degree of damage and replanted at a spacing calculated to restore
specified tree density.
¦ Herbivory on seedlings by rabbits, rice and cotton rats, and field mice will
be reduced by the foxes, feral dogs and cats, hawks and owls resident in
nearby natural areas. Reductions in rodent herbivory will be achieved by
• the erection of simple perches at interior locations on the site to encourage

•
raptor use. If monitoring indicates deer numbers are jeopardizing tree
survival, decisions will be made, in coordination with appropriate agencies
on what, if anything, can be done.
¦ Construction errors will be identified early in the mitigation process with an
as-built report which contains spot elevations and topographic data. Any
correction effort will be coordinated with permitting agencies such that the
intended water regime is met.
¦ Planting errors in spacing density or diversity will be avoided by diligent
monitoring of and coordination with planting crews to ensure fidelity to the
planting plan. An accounting of tree plot and monitoring well numbers and
locations will be included in the as-built.
¦ Design flaws may not be caught as early in the process, but if monitoring or
observation (i.e., excessive standing water) indicates a potential design
problem, remediation options will be explored with permitting agencies.
¦ Parker Farm monitoring wells were subject to frequent disturbance and
occasional destruction by black bears, despite efforts to armor the wells
against them. It is expected that bear problems will be most pronounced in
the first year or two of monitoring when the animals are becoming
accustomed to the lack of crops on the site. Barbed wire fences may be
constructed around the more expensive continuous monitoring wells.
¦ Common reed management may be necessary for lower Sage Gut and this
species could appear elsewhere on the site. During the regular monitoring
tasks, biologists will be tasked to be observant of any invasive species that
may take root. Similar to practice in Florida against the invasive Melaluuca,
during well checks or vegetation plot set up and monitoring, biologists will
be instructed to uproot any seedling loblolly pines.
7.2 Long Term Management
Long term management will be aided by controlled-access gates on the entrance
road of the property. It is anticipated that once the area begins to naturalize, that
no long term management will be needed.
•
8.0 Final Dispensation of Site
With agency concurrence of success of the site, arrangements with a suitable non-
governmental organization or government agency will be made such that a conservation
easement in perpetuity is transferred to such organization or agency. Permitting agencies
will be consulted during the decision and negotiation of final dispensation.

Re: Alluvial soil determination at Sage Gut Swamp Site in Beaufort County, NC
Dear Mr. Temple,
As requested the referenced property was evaluated for the presence of alluvial soils
along natural drains that feed Sage Gut Swamp. The site consisted of approximately
130 acres predominately in farm land. Soils contained on this site were most like the
Alta Vista, Tomotley, Roanoke, and Portsmouth series, The Altavista series consist
of moderately well drained soils that forrned in loamy marine and fluvial sediments.
The Tomotley series consist of poorly drained soils that formed in loamy marine and
fluvial sediments. The Roanoke series consists of poorly drained soils that fonried in
loamy and clayey marine and fluvial sediments. The Portsmouth series consists of
very poorly drained soils that formed in loamy marine and fluvial sediments.
The evaluation involved methodically conducting hand auger borings across the
property to locate the approximate alluvial soil boundary. The alluvial soil r'ine was
derived based on an interpolation method between soil findings at each Global
Positioning System (gps) located boring. A boring log provides general soil
descriptions at each boring location. The basis of alluvial soil classification was a
loamy sand to sandy loam surface texture to a minimum depth of 18 inches. Soil
texture was field estimated based on the United States Department of Agriculture
(USDA) system of nomenclature. Borings were located by using a Trimble gps unit
capable of sub-meter accuracy. All gps data was post processed using a
continuously operating reference station in Washington, NC.
The findings of this investigation suggest there is a correlation between natural drains
and alluvial deposits. As the distance from drain convergence increased, the
evidence of alluvial soils declined, which is normal for natural systems. However, the
lack of alluvial sails in the headwaters of these drainages could be attributed to
agricultural ditching that cut across the natural drainage paths, which have diverted
runoff in opposite directions The enclosed alluvial soil map identifies the approximate
boundary of alluvial soils. Also contained on this map are boring locations and the
approximate distribution of Alta Vista soils.
• page 2
December 12. 2007
The spatial distribution of soils with respect to series generally corresponds to that of
the Beaufort County Soil Survey. Due to the scale of the Beaufort County soil
survey, some error should be expected with this soil survey or any surrey at this
scale.
If you have any further questions, please contact me at [phone].
Sincerely,
Gene Aston
