The purpose of this project is to generate Jordan Lake riparian buffer restoration and preservation mitigation credits as well as nutrient offset credits. The Neville Farms Bank Parcel is included in the Neville Farms Mitigation Banking Instrument (MBI) for Riparian Buffer Mitigation and Nutrient Offset Credits signed between Watershed Investments NC, LLC and the NC Division of Water Resources (DWR) and effective on January 29th, 2016. The MBI is in accordance with 15A NCAC 02B .0295 (Temporary Consolidated Buffer Mitigation Rule, effective October 24, 2014) and 15A NCAC 02B .0240 (Nutrient Offset Payments Rule). The Site is located approximately 3 miles southwest of Chapel Hill, NC and one mile upstream of University Lake. Surface water drainage features at the Site feed into the Upper New Hope subwatershed of Jordan Lake. The Site is located in the Cape Fear River Basin 14-digit United States Geological Survey (USGS) Cataloging Unit 03030002060070 of the South Atlantic/Gulf Region (North Carolina Division of Water Quality [NCDWQ] Sub-basin Number 03-06-06). Project restoration activities and planting were completed in November-December 2016. Completed project activities, reporting history, completion dates, project contacts, and project attributes are summarized in Tables 1-4 (Appendix A). The site encompasses 6.15 acres of land along Neville Creek, which is a tributary to University Lake south of Chapel Hill in Orange County North Carolina. Site activities consisted of approximately 5.04 acres of riparian restoration and approximately 0.94 acres of riparian preservation. An additional 0.17 acres of Tract 1 is included in the project easement area but is outside the rule-defined riparian buffer zone and, consequently, not included for either riparian buffer mitigation or nutrient offset credit generation. The Site is comprised of two separate tracts owned by two different land owners and is being mitigated in two phases. Phase 1 is comprised of Tract I and Phase 2 is comprised of Tract 2. Each phase/tract has its own credit release schedule for milestones met in accordance with the Neville Farms Mitigation Banking Instrument (MBI). Though the tracts are adjacent, the division of the Site was necessary based on land use, land planning, and project crediting. Moving forward; however, project activities for both Tracts are proceeding on the same schedule. Tract information is as follows. Tract Acreage Location Tract 1 (Gambill/Neville Property) 4.31 ac. Main project area located on the north side of Neville Creek and accessible from Old Greensboro Highway Tract 2 (McGee Property) 1.84 ac. Area south of Neville Creek and accessible from Stansbury Road Orange County is the delegated authority by the NC Environmental Management Commission to conduct determinations on whether drainage features in their jurisdiction are surface waters and subject to the buffer rules of the State found in 15A NCAC 02B .0267 (Protection of Existing Riparian Buffers). Orange County Neville Farms Year 2 (2018) Annual Monitoring Report (Phases 1 &2) Watershed Investments NC ii Planning and Inspections assessed the Site and provided their determination on February 9th, 2015 that the surface water features on the Site are subject to the Rule (Appendix C). The project has restored and preserved forest adjacent to surface water features to reduce nutrients that flow into Neville Creek, University Lake, and ultimately Jordan Lake. The project will have ancillary benefits that include reducing sediment runoff, reducing nutrients to streams through agricultural runoff, and thus, improving aquatic and terrestrial habitat. Any nutrient offset or riparian buffer mitigation generated from this Bank Parcel may offset impacts from development, both existing and proposed, within the Upper New Hope Subwatershed of Jordan Lake, as verified by DWR staff onsite and in a letter dated April 6, 2015 (Appendix E). At the request of NC DWR, one (1) additional permanent vegetation plot was installed in the Zone C Restoration area of Tract 1 during year 1 annual monitoring for a total of five (5) permanent vegetation plots in Tract 1 and two (2) permanent vegetation plots in Tract 2. During Year 1 (2017), mowing occurred to reduce herbaceous competition of planted trees. Year 2 (2018) data was collected on October 09, 2018 by Axiom Environmental and derived an average density of 474 planted stems per acre (excluding livestakes). In addition, all 7 vegetation plots were well above success criteria of 260 planted stems per acre. No problem areas were observed in Year 2 (2018).

DIVISION OF WATER RESOURCE PROJECT VIABILITY LETTER APPENDIX E. NUTRIENT OFFSET CREDIT CALCULATION DOCUMENTATION FOR TRACT 2 Neville Farms Year 2 (2018) Annual Monitoring Report (Phases 1 &2) Watershed Investments NC 1 1.0 PROJECT MONITORING AND PERFORMANCE STANDARDS 1.1 Project Monitoring Plan Riparian vegetation monitoring for Phase 1 and Phase 2 will be based on the CVS Level 1-2 Protocol for Recording Vegetation, Version 4.2 (Lee et al. 2008). Annual vegetation monitoring will occur each year during the fall season with the first year for each Phase occurring at least 5 months after initial planting of the Tract/s. Vegetation monitoring plots measure 0.0247 acre in size and cover 2% of the planted area. Accordingly, four (4) permanent vegetative plots will be used to monitor Tract 1 and two (2) permanent vegetative plots will be used to monitor Tract 2. At the request of NC DWR, one (1) additional permanent vegetation plot was installed in the Zone C Restoration area of Tract 1 during year 1 annual monitoring for a total of five (5) permanent vegetation plots in Tract 1 and two (2) permanent vegetation plots in Tract 2 (Figure 2, Appendix A). A reference photo will be taken from the southwestern corner of each plot. All planted stems in the plots will be marked with flagging tape and recorded. Data collected will include species, height, planting type (planted stem or volunteer), and grid location. Year 2 (2018) data was collected on October 09, 2018 by Axiom Environmental and derived an average density of 474 planted stems per acre (excluding livestakes) (Table 7, Appendix B). The Sponsor shall submit to DWR an annual monitoring report for each phase, no later than December 31 of each year for five consecutive years. Reports will document the success of the vegetation and any maintenance, supplemental planting, or encroachment within the easement areas. As planting and the monitoring for both Phase 1 and 2 occurred on the same schedule, WINC intends to submit one Monitoring Report each year for at least 5 years to document the above requirements for both phases. All Monitoring Reports shall reflect the Phase for which it is being submitted. Monitoring bonds shall be renewed with confirmation of renewal provided to DWR with each annual monitoring report for each phase. DWR reserves the right to alter the credit release schedule if monitoring reports are submitted without proof of bond renewals. Invasive and noxious species will be monitored annually and controlled as needed so that none become dominant or alter the desired community structure of the site. Year 2 maintenance and mitigation activities occurring at the Site included herbicide treatment on local areas of Japanese Stiltgrass (Microstegium vimineum) and Autumn Olive (Eleagnus umbellata) at Tract 2. These treatments were conducted on May 25, 2018 with a follow up on August 31, 2018. An aquatic-safe glyphosate (AquaNeat) herbicide was applied by a licensed Pesticide Applicator to control the invasive vegetation. Additionally, the conservation easement associated with the project was transferred to Unique Places to Save on July 26, 2018. This transfer fulfilled the property disposition and long-term management requirements of the Neville Farms MBI. In addition, easement boundaries will be checked annually with the status reported in annual monitoring reports. 1.2 Success Criteria Pursuant to criteria found in the Temporary Consolidated Buffer Mitigation Rule 15A NCAC 02B .0295 and Neville Farms MBI, vegetative success for the Site will require the survival of at least 260 planted trees per Neville Farms Year 2 (2018) Annual Monitoring Report (Phases 1 &2) Watershed Investments NC 2 acre at the end of Year 5 based on monitoring data compiled for the site and site visits by the DWR. Natural recruits will not count towards annual achievement of performance standards; however, they may be taken into account during review by the NC DWR. Recruitment of volunteer species in the floodplain is anticipated due to adjacent forests that exist upstream and on the stream bank. 2.0 MITIGATION POTENTIAL As noted in the Neville Farms MBI, buffer credit determination is subject to the Temporary Buffer Rule 15A NCAC 02B .0295(h) and (i). Figure 3 (Appendix A) identifies the riparian areas and credit types for Phase 1 and Phase 2. In accordance with Rule 15A NCAC 02B .0295, the width of the buffer/nutrient credit generation area begins at the most landward limit of the top of bank or the rooted herbaceous vegetation and extends landward to a maximum distance of 200 feet. Nutrient offsets are not being generated within the areas described as Preservation. Preservation areas meet the requirements described in .0295 (m)(2)(D) – Preservation of Buffers on Subject Streams. Restoration areas meet the requirements of .0295(i) – Riparian Restoration or Enhancement. Nutrient Offset credits are consistent with rules 15A NCAC 02B .024. The following is a summary of the Jordan Lake riparian buffer credits and nutrient offset credit calculations for Phase 1 and Phase 2 of the Site. Detailed credit calculations are included in Tables 1A-1D (Appendix A). Phase 1 (Tract 1) • 0.40 acres Riparian Buffer Preservation = 1742.4 square feet of credit • 3.74 acres Nutrient Offset = 7220.59 lbs-N delivered and 424.90 lbs-P delivered) Phase 2 (Tract 2) • 1.30 acres Riparian Buffer Restoration = 55,321.2 square feet (ft2) of credit • 0.54 acres Riparian Buffer Preservation = 2330.50 square feet (ft2) of credit As indicated in the Site’s MBI, credits generated from riparian buffer restoration activities can be converted and transferred from buffer credits to nutrient offset credits with Division approval and from nutrient offset credits to buffer credits. However, when converting from nutrient offsets to buffer, all applicable ratios and percentages of full credit will apply according to 15A NCAC 02B .0295. Neville Farms’ Nutrient Offset and Riparian Buffer credits will not be debited within the same area (not stacked). The Neville Farms Bank will service impacts within the Upper New Hope Subwatershed of Jordan Lake. 3.0 ADAPTIVE MANAGEMENT PLAN In the event that the Site, or a specific component of the Site, fails to achieve the defined performance standards, WINC will develop necessary adaptive management plans and/or implement appropriate remedial actions for the Site in coordination with DWR. Remedial actions will be designed to achieve the performance standards specified previously, and will include identification of the causes of failure, remedial design approach, work schedule, and monitoring criteria that will take into account physical and climatic conditions.

Fleming Subject: RE: Orange County - Jordan Lake Stream Call for potential Nutrient Offset/Buffer Credit - Neville Farm Attachments: Site Assessment Map (PIN 9767295479 ) 2 SMS 02-09-15.pdf Mike / Katie, I had our Current Planning Division here at Orange County put together the attached “Site Assessment” showing current environmental conditions on the southernmost property bordering the stream in question. This is a standard document given to citizen’s inquiring about parcels of land. Our system is organized by PINs instead of physical addresses or latitudes / longitudes, but you should be able to easily cross reference the supplied data. The stream in question is shown on both the USGS and Soil Survey, hence portrayal on our GIS System. It also has associated floodway / floodplain with approximate required Orange County stream buffers as shown. With regards to the question of it being a jurisdictional stream subject to buffer rules…Orange County is delegated by DWR to conduct Surface Water Determinations and our protocol is as follows: a stream is considered as jurisdictional if it shows up on the Orange County GIS System (a collection of both USGS and Soil Survey Streams) and can only be removed by staff certified in Surface Water Identification after a jurisdictional call of removal is made at the required cost for assessment ($200 for 1-2 Determinations/Site ). Our aerial imagery clearly shows the section of Neville Creek in question as a “water flowing” feature, so I saw no reason for a site visit at the expense of the client. This imagery can be viewed at the following link: http://server2.co.orange.nc.us/OrangeNCGIS/default.aspx Please advise if further verification is needed.

Sincerely, Mike Herrmann 1630 Weatherford Circle, Raleigh NC 27604 | Tel : 919-533-9195 | www.watershedinvestmentsnc.net ATTACHMENT A. Summary of project, changes in the as-built to Phase 2, and revised nutrient offset calculation Project Overview Neville Farms Buffer Mitigation and Nutrient Offset Bank (“Neville Farms”) is located south of Chapel Hill in Orange County and consists of two Phases. Neville Farms’ Mitigation Banking Instrument (MBI) was signed between Watershed Investments NC, LLC (WINC) and the NC Division of Water Resources (DWR) and effective on January 29th, 2016. The purpose of this project is to generate Jordan Lake riparian buffer restoration and preservation mitigation credits as well as nutrient offset credit for use in the Upper New Hope Subwatershed of Jordan Lake. Phase 2 restoration activities completed include the control of invasive plants and the planting of native hardwood species on land formerly managed fescue lawn. Phase 2 of Neville Farms is located on an approximately 9 acre residential property. During the construction of Phase 2, adjustments were made to the area included in the conservation easement that differs from that planned easement reviewed by the DWR for the Bank Parcel Development Plan (BPDP). Differences between the BPDP and as-built easement boundary are for the following reasons: •The planned easement area was drawn remotely using GIS and tax parcel data. Parcel data, however, did not reflect the surveyed location of the property boundary. Use of the surveyed boundary resulted in conservation easement boundary changes (effect: increased area). •Field identification and survey of the top-of-bank used to mark the easement boundary edge as opposed to GIS identification (effect: refinement of top-of-bank with little overall area change). •The property owner sought to exclude a corner of the planned easement to maintain its historic recreational usage and playhouse structure (effect: decreased area). As part of the BPDP, the Division directed WINC to use Version 3.0 of the Jordan-Falls Stormwater Tool to estimate nutrient reductions from Phase 2 of the project. For consistency with this approach, the same tool and version are used to estimate nutrient reductions based on as-built conditions. Attachment B contains a copy of the Jordan-Falls tool worksheets reflecting as-built conditions while Attachment D contains the original documentation that was reviewed and approved by the Non-point source branch for the BPDP. It describes the project, restoration activities, and nutrient offset calculations. A map of the site and contributing drainage area is included in Attachment C. The watershed draining to Phase 2 continues to experience development. In particular, The Orchard, a community of mostly two acre lots continues to build and sell lots in what was formerly wooded land. Two acre lots are the drainage area development type in the used in the parameterization of the stormwater tool Table A-1 summarize the calculation of nutrient reductions as a result of the project based on as-built conditions. A summary of the differences between the BPDP and as-built easement, watershed area, and the nutrient reduction calculations is provided in Table A-2. A-1 Table A-1.

The edits you suggested have been made to Attachment A. The remaining materials remain the same. If you are satisfied that these materials adequately document the site and offset credit calculation, I'll need a communication from your Branch stating that. Thank you, D-2 D-3 Removed in the Attachment BPDP ATTACHMENT A. Tract 2 of Neville Farms Nutrient Offset Calculation Summary Project Overview Tract 2 is part of a larger restoration project identified as Neville Farms in the Bank Parcel Development Plan that is currently being developed. Located adjacent to Neville Creek, a perennial stream in Orange County, Tract 2 is on an 8.8 acre property owned by John McGee. The watershed draining through the project site encompasses 31.6 acres. The proposed Tract 2 conservation easement is approximately 1.7 acres with 1.20 acres anticipated for reforestation. The remaining 0.5 acres, a narrow, mature buffer ranging between 10 and 20 feet exists in portions of the easement area, will be considered as buffer preservation with no proposed nutrient reduction benefit. Attachment C provides a map of the Site including the land draining to it. For areas of the conservation easement lacking a forested buffer or with forests less than 50 feet, residential lawn will be replaced with native trees to create a buffer with widths varying between 50 and 150 feet. In accordance with current DWR policy, success criteria on the project will be based on a minimum planted stem density survival of 260 stems/acre after 5 years. Currently, the majority of Tract 2 consists of residential lawn. While it is eligible for buffer credit, staff from the 401 and Buffer Unit directed me to work with the Planning Section to develop the nutrient offset crediting because the site falls outside of the typical practice for generating nutrient offset credit (i.e., riparian reforestation of agricultural land). Attachment D contains a copy of the letter summarizing their determination. Nutrient Reduction Calculation Summary The calculated nutrient credit available for the site is 1091.10 N lbs and 243.00 P lbs. This is based on an annual nutrient offset crediting for the site of 36.37 N pound (lbs)/year and 8.10 lbs/year multiplied by 30 years. The method used to quantify nutrient offset credits has been developed through coordination and communication with the NC DWR Planning Unit staff. The agreed on approach involves the use of site-specific factors and the Jordan-Falls Stormwater Accounting Tool (JFSAT) Version 3.0. Supporting printouts from the tool are included in Attachment B. A summary of the nutrient offset calculation is included below. Table A-1 provides a summary of the estimated reduction from the JFSAT. The JFSAT accounts for both land conversion for nutrient removal from upland sources. The upland area is 29.93 acres. This area includes The Orchard, a development under construction that contains a mix of residential and forest land use with 2 ac residential lots being the predominant parcel type. Parameters used to run the tool along with its output are contained in Attachment B. Table A-1. Land Conversion and Upland Source Reduction.
