*Note: After construction, SCO dropped monitoring services from all DMS
design contracts. Alternatively, DMS solicited post -construction monitoring
services. As a result, this project experienced one year with no stream or data
collection. In lieu of MYO/Baseline conditions, the MY1 data (collected in
September 2012) serves as the existing conditions when post construction
monitoring began.

Greenbrier Creek Watershed Planning Summary
The Greenbrier Creek stream, wetland and buffer restoration project is located in HUC
03 003 0003 070010, the Rocky River Headwaters watershed, which is listed as a Targeted Local
Watershed (TLW) in the 2009 Cape Fear River Basin Restoration Priorities (RBRP). The project is also
located in Upper and Middle Rocky River Local Watershed Plan (LWP). Currently, DMS has a total of
two projects in this TLW/LWP (Greenbrier Creek and Mud Lick -Thomas Site).
Greenbrier Creek drains to the Rocky River approximately 3.5 miles downstream to a location that is
identified on the NC Division of Water Resources (NCDWR) 2014 303d Impaired Waters list. This reach
has been listed since 2010 for Chlorophyll a. This watershed is also designated as a Water Supply
Watershed Area by NCDWR.
The 2009 Cape Fear RBRP indicates that impacts from cattle accessing streams, erosion and poor riparian
condition are of concern in this watershed particularly since this is a water supply watershed. The Upper
and Middle Rocky River LWP indicates that major stressors in this watershed include stream bank
erosion, lack of buffer, livestock access to streams and nutrient inputs. Goals of this LWP include: (1)
Enhanced protections for perennial and intermittent streams; (2) Erosion and sediment control guidance;
(3) Improved maps for streams and floodplains; and (4) Sites for Preservation, Restoration and BMP
installation.
The goals of the Greenbrier Creek project are consistent with DMS watershed planning goals. The project
eliminates livestock access, restores riparian buffer aiding in filtration/pollutant removal and improved
habitat, reduces erosion by stabilizing and vegetating the streambanks and further protects project
improvements by preserving upstream wetland and stream reaches.
Project Setting and Background Summary
The Greenbrier Stream Restoration Site (hereafter referred to as the "Site") is located in Cape Fear River
Basin 03030003070010. Prior to Site implementation, the Site streams were impaired as the result poor
land management, stream dredging, upstream disturbances, and human impacts.
Enhancement I was achieved by changing the dimension & profile of the channelized stream. Dimension
was changed by increasing the width/depth ratio by laying back the banks. The design did not change the
overall slope, but instead changed the profile by raising the channel invert with riffle structures which also
resulted in the creation of deeper pools upstream above those riffles. This design approach resulted in
stable stream channels, with an improved bed form diversity where it was once lacking. Stable, vegetated
banks provide sediment reduction.
The removal of cattle with exclusion fencing reduces nutrient and fecal loading. Preservation of stream and
wetland complex traps sediment and runoff pollutants, and provides habitat for water fowl. Privet was
controlled throughout the 51 -acre easement, and the riparian buffer has been planted with diverse native,
woody vegetation.
Supplemental planting at the Site occurred on February 13 and 14, 2012, in response to the contractor's
vegetation warranty assessment. During this effort, 1952 bare root and 1 -gallon trees were planted at the
Site. Supplemental planting appears to have resulted in vegetative success across the majority of the Site.
Invasive vegetation, including Chinese privet (Ligustrum sinense) and Japanese privet (Ligustrum
japonicum), were removed and intensively treated during construction throughout the entire conservation
easement. Additionally, privet and multiflora rose (Rosa multiflora) were treated throughout the entire
Page 2 of 29
conservation easement during MY3 and MY4. The invasive species observed onsite are minimal and do
not appear to pose a threat to Site success.
Beaver activity has been observed onsite throughout the monitoring period. Currently, one large, well-
established impoundment is located on the preservation reach consisting of three major beaver dams.
Beaver activity has been controlled on the enhancement reach throughout the monitoring period.
Goals and Obiectives
GOALS
• Improve water quality by reducing nutrient loading from a livestock operation in a water supply
watershed.
Reduce the high level of sediment loading to the stream from steep, eroding banks.
Improve both aquatic and terrestrial riparian buffer habitat.
OBJECTIVES
• Preservation and protection of important wetlands and stream channel reaches upstream of the
Matthews property.
• Improvement of water quality (reduction of nutrient and sediment inputs) by creating a vegetated
riparian buffer filter strip between the stream and livestock operations currently on the property.
• Reduction of high sediment loads in the stream through stabilization of eroding channel banks.
• Improvement of deteriorated aquatic habitat by reduction of nutrient and sediment loads in the
streams, providing more variable stream channel geometry and creating more opportunities for
carbon inputs from trees in the restored buffer zone.
• Improvement of terrestrial habitat through restoration of diverse native woody vegetation in the
riparian buffer zone and control of invasive Chinese privet (Ligustrum sinense).

DMS Recommendation and Conclusion
DMS recommends that the Greenbrier Site be closed out as proposed to generate 2974
Stream Mitigation Units and 1.38 Riparian Riverine Wetland Mitigation Units.
The vegetation survey results indicated an average site density of 482 planted stems per acre
(excluding livestakes) surviving in year five (2016). In addition, each individual plot met success
criteria based on planted stems with the exception of plots 5 and 7, which were 2 stems and 1 stem
shy of success with 202 planted stems per acre and 242 planted stems per acre, respectively.
However, when including naturally recruited stems of black walnut (Juglans nigra) and black
locust (Robinia pseudoacacia) both plots 5 and 7 met success criteria.
No stream problem areas were observed during Year 5 (2016) monitoring. In addition, 10 bankfull
events were documented throughout the course of the monitoring period with at least one event
occurring in each monitoring year.
Contingencies
None.
