The project is located approximately 1.5 miles northwest of the intersection of Page Road and Chin Page Road. The constructed Stream Restoration project is part of the compensatory mitigation plan to offset stream and wetland impacts associated with the Creekside at Bethpage project. The Conservation Easement (CE) for the Stream Restoration project is 2.89 acres in size, and is located within the west central portion of the overall project. The Stream Restoration project flows west and southwest, and ties back in to another UT to Stirrup Iron Creek (Appendix A, Sheet No. 1-1). The restored stream length is 1,958 linear feet. The Stream Restoration project is approximately 0.25 miles from the proposed stream impacts associated with the Creekside at Bethpage residential development. The Stream Restoration project is located within the Neuse River Basin USGS Hydrologic Unit 03020201, local watershed 14 -digit basin 03020201080010, and the North Carolina Division of Water Resources (DWR) sub -basin 03-04-02. The unnamed tributary flows into Stirrup Iron Creek (DWR stream index number 27-33-4-2) approximately 1.0 mile downstream of the project terminus. 1.2 Project Goals and Objectives The purpose of this Stream and Vegetation Monitoring Year 2 Report is to assess the success of the Stream Restoration project. The monitoring plan evaluates the success of the Site, and is based on the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) "Stream Mitigation Guidelines" (April, 2013) and the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program (NCEEP) Monitoring Requirements and Performance Standards for Stream and/or Wetland Mitigation (November, 2011). Monitoring of the Site will occur annually for five (5) years. Construction of the Stream Restoration project occurred in the fall of 2015. During the month of November 2015, riparian buffer restoration activities began following construction of the restored active stream channel. Riparian buffer restoration activities included planting trees and staking vegetation plots within the CE. Baseline vegetation sampling was conducted on February 18, 2016 within the vegetation monitoring plots. According to the Restoration Plan for the Stream Restoration project (issued July 2009), project specific goals and objectives related to vegetative assemblages within the stream restoration project were the following: 1) Ensure channel and stream bank stabilization by integrating native vegetation into the restoration design while also creating a stable and functional aquatic and terrestrial habitat. 2) Establish a native forested riparian plant community within a minimum of 50 feet from the proposed top of the bankfull channel, along with the removal of exotic vegetation during construction implementation, and the elimination of current embankment maintenance practices. 2.0 Channel Stability Assessment Stream geometry will be considered successful if the geometry, profile, and sinuosity are stable or reach a dynamic equilibrium. It is expected that there will be minimal changes in the 91MCADAMS designed cross sections, profile, and/or substrate composition. Changes that may occur during the monitoring period will be evaluated to determine if they represent a movement toward a less stable condition (e.g. down cutting, or bank erosion) or are minor changes that represent an increase in stability (e.g. settling, vegetative changes, coarsening of bed material, etc.). Deviation from the design ratios will not necessarily denote failure as it is possible to maintain stability and not stay within the design geometry. Channel stability will be reflected in the surveyed permanent cross-sections, longitudinal profile, evaluation of bank stability and cover, evaluation of in -stream structure performance compared to the as -built and any previously collected monitoring data. The general trend should reflect a stable or slightly decreasing riffle cross-sectional area, whereas pools may increase and yet be considered relatively stable. The longitudinal profile will typically adjust depending on the frequency of bankfull or greater storm events. Typically, the constructed channel profile will adjust (especially in a sand dominated bed), but it will need to function without significant degradation (bed scour), aggradation (mid -channel bars), or bank erosion. The Bank Height Ratio (BHR) shall not exceed 1.2, and the Entrenchment Ratio shall be no less than 2.2. The stream shall remain stable over five years, through two bankfull events, as indicated by visual surveys, cross-sections, and bank pins. Morphological data (cross sections, longitudinal profile, and bank pin data) were not collected as part of Year 2 monitoring activities. Channel stability was visually assessed in Monitoring Year 2. 2.1 Channel Stability Assessment Summary Most of the stream system appears stable and is not migrating toward lateral or vertical instability. Several areas of erosion and channel and bank instability were noted in Monitoring Year 1. Vegetation growth on the banks seems to have stabilized most of the problem areas noted during Monitoring Year 1. No major areas of instability were observed in Monitoring Year 2 and no remedial actions are recommended. While the stability issues observed in Monitoring Year 1 appear to be moving toward a more stable condition due to vegetation growth, sediment laden runoff from the adjacent Creekside at Bethpage construction site continues to present a threat to water quality within and downstream of the stream restoration project. During Year 1 monitoring activities, excessive sediment loads were observed from the contributing watershed, likely from the construction activities associated with the Bethpage development. During Monitoring Year 2 activities, it was noted that the observed sediment load from the contributing watershed and construction site continues to be an issue. Between Year 1 and Year 2 monitoring activities, a stormwater pond was installed in the Creekside at Bethpage site adjacent to the CE north of Vegetation Plot 3. During Year 2 monitoring activities, water with high levels of suspended sediment was observed discharging from this pond adjacent to the CE, and pooling on the floodplain within the CE. There continues to be a high level of suspended sediment throughout the restoration reach, which will compromise the ability of the system to provide habitat for benthic macroinvertebrates and other aquatic organisms that would constitute a healthy and thriving restored ecosystem. It is recommended that the outlet of the stormwater pond near Vegetation Plot 3 be evaluated for compliance with applicable stormwater regulations and that the area be monitored periodically to ensure that no stability issues develop. Additionally, it is recommended that the Duke Power easement crossing, which was repaired in November 2016, continue be monitored for stability, 2 91MCADAMS and that the sediment and erosion control measures on the Creekside at Bethpage construction site be monitored regularly to ensure that they remain in compliance with City of Durham regulations. 3.0 Veeetation Condition and Comparison The primary focus of the vegetative monitoring will be solely on the tree stratum, although shrub and herbaceous species encountered may also be recorded. Vegetation planting success criteria will be based on the survival of a minimum density of 320 trees per acre (to include both planted and existing trees) after three (3) years of monitoring. After five (5) years of monitoring, the density shall be no less than 260 trees per acre (to include both planted and existing trees). Vegetation plots will be sampled and reported in years 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. Four (4) vegetative monitoring plots (Appendix A, Figure 2) were installed during As -Built monitoring. The vegetation monitoring plots were installed randomly throughout the Stream Restoration project. Because many canopy trees within the easement were preserved during construction, the planted area is largely limited to narrow areas along the stream banks. This limited planting area made it difficult to establish 100 -square -meter vegetation plots; thus, the plots vary in size from 31.0 to 96.5 square meters. All four (4) corners of the vegetation monitoring plots were permanently installed and surveyed. Baseline vegetation monitoring was conducted in general accordance with CVS-EEP Protocol for Recording Ve eta (CVS- EEP, v4.2) as a basis for subsequent vegetation monitoring activities and reports. 3.1 Vegetation Monitoring Plots Monitoring Year 2 field activities were conducted December 12, 2017. Monitoring methodologies followed the most current templates and guidelines provided by EEP (EEP 2004; EEP 2011). All four (4) vegetation monitoring plots installed by McAdams were located in Monitoring Year 2. Figure 2 (Appendix A) depicts the location of the vegetation monitoring plots. Plant species, density, survival rates, and the cause of mortality, if identifiable, were recorded within each vegetation monitoring plot. Table 1 (Appendix B) provides a success summary for each vegetation monitoring plot. In Monitoring Year 2, the Stream Restoration project had four (4) vegetation monitoring plots encompassing 0.07 acres, containing 44 planted stems, which yielded a density of 629 planted stems per acre. All four (4) vegetation monitoring plots met the interim vegetation monitoring criteria with a range of 585 to 914 stems per acre. Table 2 (Appendix B) provides a stem count total and planted stem total by each individual vegetation plot. Table 3 (Appendix B) provides a summary of only planted stem counts as compared to planted stem counts of the As Built. 3.2 Vegetation Monitoring Plot Photos and Data Sheets Photographs of the vegetation monitoring plots are provided in Appendix C. Vegetation Monitoring Plot Data Sheets are provided in Appendix D. Each Vegetation Monitoring Plot Data Sheet provides measurements, location, and vigor of each planted species within a respective vegetation monitoring plot. 91MCADAMS 4.0 References Lee Michael T., Peet Robert K., Roberts Steven D., and Wentworth Thomas R., 2008.

One possible explanation for "missing" species is due to thick herbaceous growth obscurring the species from identification during Monitoring Year 2. Therefore, it is possilbe "missing" species could grow larger than the herbaceous layer and allow for their identification and measurment in subsequent monitoring years. In addition, species which were deemed "dead" could survive in subsequent years because the species may have gone dormant at the time of monitoring while the roots of the species are surviving below ground. Therefore, in subsequent years the species could grow under more favorable conditions.
