BIO-ENGINEERING AND SHORELINE STABILIZATION MITIGATION
TECHNIQUES
FOR LAKES MANAGED BY DUKE ENERGY LAKE SERVICES
1. Bio-engineering
A. Definition
Bio-engineering is an effective scientific method, using a combination of natural and living
materials, to stabilize eroded banks along the shoreline. Bio-engineering techniques vary
according to a number of factors, including but not limited to; slope, soil type and wave action.
Often a combination of techniques may be utilized to effectively control erosion in areas with
varying condition.
B. Benefits
In addition to controlling erosion and the aesthetic value of a more natural shoreline, the use of
native plants create additional habitat for wildlife. A permit and written authorization for any
shoreline stabilization project is required from Duke Energy Lake Services. By utilizing bio-
engineering as the primary stabilization technique, the permit application fee for shoreline
stabilization is waived.

D. Techniques
Bio-engineering techniques normally include minor grading to allow for the installation of a rip
rap toe, rock gabion, Bio-log®, crib wall or similar structure in high energy areas. The structures
are then enhanced by the addition of natural/living material. For example.
1. live stakes - branches cut from living material and planted with stems and buds pointed
upward. Initially they offer little to no soil reinforcement but do so after the first growing
season once a root system becomes established. Often used with other techniques and
conducted during the dormant season.
2. live fascine - branched bundled and secured together and placed in a very shallow trench
along the toe of the eroded bank or in the bank face. They are usually installed in conjunction
with geotextile fabrics above a rip rap or gabion toe.
3. brush mattress - includes both live stakes and live fascines. Provides protection of the
shoreline upon installation and can be used in layers beginning just above a rip rap or gabion
toe.
4. plant plugs - plantings with intact root stock. Placed directly into the bank face with the soil
compacted around the root stock.
E. Follow up activities
Riparian Zone Management Information: Duke Energy will design and publish an informational
piece that will provide property owners with a range of information about bio-engineering
techniques, material sources, information sources and the value of riparian zone. This will be the
final project in the Riparian Zone Management Initiative and will serve as a compilation of the
on-going efforts through the year 2000.
II. Mitigation
A. General Guidance
Mitigation proposals should provide realistic but substantial allowances for reducing and
relieving the impact of the proposed shoreline stabilization technique proposed. In general,
mitigation activities should enhance the wildlife habitat in the immediate area of the stabilization
activity and may consist of but are not limited to; enhancing fish cover under an approved pier or
similar structure, maintaining a natural vegetative buffer along the entire shoreline of the lot,
placing or maintaining secured cover and perching habitat (e.g. root wads, stumps, fallen trees,
etc.) along portions of the shoreline.

B. Review Timeframe
Applicants for proposed shoreline stabilization activities identified in the Shoreline Stabilization
Technique Selection Criteria (Attachment 1) that require wildlife agency review and/or mitigation
must send their applications to the district game and fisheries biologist of the applicable NC/SC
agency for a minimum 30-day review and comment period. In the absence of any finding of
significant adverse impacts on fish and wildlife resources during this 30-day review period, the
applicant will be allowed to proceed without further notice to send their completed application to
Duke Energy Lake Services for approval. If there are findings of significant impact and those
impacts are not adequately mitigated, then the applicant will not be allowed to proceed with the
proposed stabilization activity. Applicants should make every effort to comply directly with
resource agency recommendations.

Shoreline Stabilization Technique Selection Process
General conditions:
-All seawalls must have Class B or larger rip[-rap extending 6 feet lakeward from the base.
-Considering current lake level operating targets and variability and the desire to prevent unnecessary impacts, rip
rap must be confined to the area between 6' below full pond elevation and no more than one foot above full pond
elevation to the maximum practicable extent. Potential exceptions include areas where entire placement is above
the FERC project boundary, where banks are already eroded above the full pond elevation or where severely
eroded banks must be sloped back or terraced to provide minimum bank stability.
-Seawalls are not allowed in areas with an average eroded bank height or less than 3 feet.
-Proposals for stabilization where bank height is less than 2 feet can utilize approved bio-engineering techniques
and enhanced rip-rap techniques only.
-The bank height is the average height of the eroded shoreline (measured from the original lake bed to the top of the
eroded bank) in the area to be stabilized.
-Bio-engineering techniques within an IMZ require applicant to provide photo evidence of successful vegetation
establishment at 1 year point Bio-engineering is a stabilization approach that utilizes natural and living material.
Bio-engineering techniques may include use of rip-rap with live stakes, rock filled gabions, live staked crib walls,
biologs, and numerous other activities.
-Applicant can use bioengineering, rip-rap, seawalls or any combination of stabilization techniques where use of
hardening structures are allowed.
-Stabilization in an IMZ requires review/approval by the applicable state wildlife agency and reasonable mitigation
requirements as determined through consultation with the state wildlife agencies.
-Stabilization is not allowed from March 1 through June 30 in areas identified as IMZs in the SMP.
-New or expanded stabilization activities (excluding Bio-engineering) may not be undertaken within the 50'
Environmental offset associated with an Environmental classification in the SMP.
-Cut/fill
-Stabilization in areas classified as Natural due to the presence of significant cultural resources, should not have
artifacts impacted by utilizing any shoreline stabilization techniques.
