Approval of 401 Water Quality Certification and Authorization Certificate per the Neuse River
Buffer Protection Rules (15A NCAC 2B.0233) with Additional Conditions
Dear Sir or Madam:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to place fill
within or otherwise impact 7.7 acres of riparian wetland in conjunction with proposed wetland
enhancement at the site as described within your application dated March 16, 2006, which was received
by the N.C. Division of Water Quality (DWQ) on March 17, 2006, with more information received from
you on April 18, 2006. After reviewing your application, we have decided that the impacts are covered
by General Water Quality Certification Number(s) 3495 (GC3495). The Certification(s) allows you to
use Nationwide Permit(s) NW27 when issued by the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). This letter
shall also act as your approved Authorization Certificate for impacts to the protected riparian buffers per
15A NCAC 213 .0233. In addition, you should obtain or otherwise comply with any other required
federal, state or local permits before you go ahead with your project including (but not limited to) Erosion
and Sediment Control, and Non-discharge regulations. Also, this approval to proceed with your
proposed impacts or to conduct impacts to waters as depicted in your application shall expire upon
expiration of the 404 or CAMA Permit.
This approval is for the purpose and design that you described in your application. If you change your
project, you must notify us and you may be required to send us a new application. If the property is sold,
the new owner must be given a copy of this Certification and approval letter and is thereby responsible for
complying with all conditions. If total fills for this project (now or in the future) exceed one acre of
wetland or 150 linear feet of stream, compensatory mitigation may be required as described in 15A
NCAC 2H.0506 (h). This approval requires you to follow the conditions listed in the attached
certification and any additional conditions listed below.
The Additional Conditions of the Certification are:
1. Impacts Approved
The following impacts are hereby approved as long as all of the other specific and general
conditions of this Certification (or Isolated Wetland Permit) are met. No other impacts are
approved including incidental impacts:

Sediment and Erosion Control:
2. Erosion and sediment control practices must be in full compliance with all specifications governing
the proper design, installation and operation and maintenance of such Best Management Practices in
order to protect surface waters standards:
a. The erosion and sediment control measures for the project must be designed, installed,
operated, and maintained in accordance with the most recent version of the North Carolina
Sediment and Erosion Control Planning and Design Manual.
b. The design, installation, operation, and maintenance of the sediment and erosion control
measures must be such that they equal, or exceed, the requirements specified in the most
recent version of the North Carolina Sediment and Erosion Control Manual. The devices
shall be maintained on all construction sites, borrow sites, and waste pile (spoil) projects,
including contractor-owned or leased borrow pits associated with the project.
c. Sufficient materials required for stabilization and/or repair of erosion control measures and
stormwater routing and treatment shall be on site at all times.
3. No Waste, Spoil, Solids, or Fill of Any Kind
No waste, spoil, solids, or fill of any kind shall occur in wetlands, waters, or riparian areas beyond
the footprint of the impacts depicted in the Pre-Construction Notification. All construction
activities, including the design, installation, operation, and maintenance of sediment and erosion
control Best Management Practices, shall be performed so that no violations of state water quality
standards, statutes, or rules occur.
4. Diffuse Flow
All constructed stormwater conveyance outlets shall be directed and maintained as diffuse flow at
non-erosive velocities through the protected stream buffers such that it will not re-concentrate
before discharging into a stream as identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0233 (5). If this is not
possible, it may be necessary to provide stormwater facilities that are considered to remove
nitrogen. This may require additional approval from this Office.
5. Protective Fencing
The outside buffer, wetland or water boundary and along the construction corridor within these
boundaries approved under this authorization shall be clearly marked with orange warning ,
fencing (or similar high visibility material) for the areas that have been approved to infringe
within the buffer, wetland or water prior to any land disturbing activities to ensure compliance
with 15A NCAC 2B 33 and GC 3402.
6. No Sediment & Erosion Control Measures w/n Wetlands or Waters
Sediment and erosion control measures shall not be placed in wetlands or waters to the maximum
extent practicable. If placement of sediment and erosion control devices in wetlands and waters
is unavoidable, they shall be removed and the natural grade restored within six months of the date
that the Division of Land Resources has released the project.
7. The size of the Riparian Buffer restoration areas presented in Table 1 (page iii) do not match the
values given in the text on page 14. These values should be accurate calculations for the restoration
areas and should be consistent throughout the document.
NC EEP
Page 3 of 4
April 19, 2006
8. You have proposed a Riparian Buffer Herbaceous Zone which would be located beyond zone 2.
DWQ cannot give credit for any restoration outside of the 50-foot buffer.
9. No soil amendments should be conducted on the site without prior approval from DWQ since the
stream is NSW.
10. Acer rubrum (red maple) should be removed from the planting plan and be replaced by a more
appropriate species.
11. The anticipated locations for the vegetation plots should be shown on the site plans.
12. The as-built and subsequent monitoring reports should include a list of the number of trees present for
each species.
13. Vegetation monitoring should be conducted during the growing season.
14. General, descriptive observations must be made each year while walking through the site in order to
determine any problems areas that might be developing so early corrective actions can be taken. This
provision must be added to the monitoring plan.
15. Certificate of Completion
Upon completion of all work approved within the 401 Water Quality Certification or applicable
Buffer Rules, and any subsequent modifications, the applicant is required to return the attached
certificate of completion to the 401 Oversight/Express Review Permitting Unit, North Carolina
Division of Water Quality, 1650 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC, 27699-1650.
Violations of any condition herein set forth may result in revocation of this Certification and may result in
criminal and/or civil penalties. The authorization to proceed with your proposed impacts or to conduct
impacts to waters as depicted in your application and as authorized by this Certification shall expire upon
expiration of the 404 or CAMA Permit.
If you do not accept any of the conditions of this Certification (associated with the approved wetland or
stream impacts), you may ask for an adjudicatory hearing. You must act within 60 days of the date that
you receive this letter. To ask for a hearing, send a written petition, which conforms to Chapter 150B of
the North Carolina General Statutes to the Office of Administrative Hearings, 6714 Mail Service Center,
Raleigh, N.C. 27699-6714. This certification and its conditions are final and binding unless you ask for a
hearing.
This letter completes the review of the Division of Water Quality under Section 401 of the Clean Water
Act. If you have any questions, please telephone Cyndi Karoly or Ian McMillan in the Central Office in

construction easement Sedimentation and Erosion Control measures will be complied with
and reviewed closely by the DENR Division of Land Resources The Land Quality Section will
also issue the Sedimentation and Erosion Control permit
VIII. Mitigation
DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0500, mitigation may be required by the NC
Division of Water Quality for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to
freshwater wetlands or greater than or equal to 150 linear feet of total impacts to perennial
streams.
USACE - In accordance with the Final Notice of Issuance and Modification of Nationwide
Permits, published in the Federal Register on March 9, 2000, mitigation will be required when
necessary to ensure that adverse effects to the aquatic environment are minimal. Factors
including size and type of proposed impact and function and relative value of the impacted
aquatic resource will be considered in determining acceptability of appropriate and practicable
mitigation as proposed. Examples of mitigation that may be appropriate and practicable include,
but are not limited to: reducing the size of the project; establishing and maintaining wetland
and/or upland vegetated buffers to protect open waters such as streams; and replacing losses of
aquatic resource functions and values by creating, restoring, enhancing, or preserving similar
functions and values, preferable in the same watershed.
Page 9 of 12
If mitigation is required for this project, a copy of the mitigation plan must be attached in order
for USACE or DWQ to consider the application complete for processing. Any application
lacking a required mitigation plan or NCWRP concurrence shall be placed on hold as
incomplete. An applicant may also choose to review the current guidelines for stream restoration
in DWQ's Draft Technical Guide for Stream Work in North Carolina, available at
http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/stringide.html.
1. Provide a brief description of the proposed mitigation plan. The description should provide
as much information as possible, including, but not limited to: site location (attach directions
and/or map, if offsite), affected stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet)
of mitigation proposed (restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan view,
preservation mechanism (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation easement, etc.), and a
description of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach
a separate sheet if more space is needed.
Please refer to the plan sheets in the Attachment Section of the Restoration Plans
2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Wetlands Restoration
Program (NCWRP) with the NCWRP's written agreement. Check the box indicating that
you would like to pay into the NCWRP. Please note that payment into the NCWRP must be
reviewed and approved before it can be used to satisfy mitigation requirements. Applicants
will be notified early in the review process by the 401/Wetlands Unit if payment into the
NCWRP is available as an option. For additional information regarding the application
process for the NCWRP, check the NCWRP website at http://h2o.enr.state.ne.us/wri)/index.htm. If
use of the NCWRP is proposed, please check the appropriate box on page three and provide
the following information:

RIPARIAN BUFFER RESTORATION PLAN
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Norwood Gainey Riparian Buffer Restoration Site is located South of Goldsboro in
Wayne County, North Carolina within a generally rural watershed. The project site has
been historically utilized for crop production, most recently soybeans, where agricultural
land use practices have removed the riparian buffer from the project site. Buffer
restoration techniques will help improve the water quality of the adjacent ditches and
wetlands by reducing erosion and runoff of pollution into the Neuse River. Improvement
of the water quality is needed since the receiving stream is listed as Nutrient Sensitive
Water (NSW). Nutrient Sensitive Waters require limitations on nutrient outputs. The
Norwood Gainey Riparian Buffer Restoration Site provides an opportunity for buffer
restoration. The following table summarizes and footages and acreages for the site.

The Norwood Gainey site provides an excellent opportunity for restoration of the
riparian buffer. Restoring ecological functions at this site will:
1) Improve water quality;
2) Reduce the amount of sediment and pollutants entering the system;
3) Provide landscape continuity.
Overall, the project will provide a variety of habitats from open water to uplands. The
project will greatly increase the future habitat and food sources for a variety of wildlife
species. Restoration of the riparian buffer will help improve water quality in the Neuse
River.

Norwood Gainey Site / Wayne County, North Carolina
RIPARIAN BUFFER RESTORATION PLAN
1.0 PROJECT DESCRIPTION
It is the intent of the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program (NCEEP) to
restore forested riparian buffers along the existing surface water features located on the
Norwood Gainey tract in order to provide riparian buffer mitigation credit. Riparian
buffer restoration is defined as restoring those riparian buffer areas where woody
vegetation is absent or sparse (<100 stems/acre that are > 5 inches at breast height)
measured within 50 feet of surface waters. The buffer restoration plan should be
consistent with NCWRP's "Guidelines for Riparian Buffer Restoration" where practicable
or otherwise approved in writing by the N.C. Division of Water Quality (DWQ). Where
riparian buffers are restored along ditches, the ditch must not be actively eroding. The
water table within the ditch should be within three feet of the surface.
1.1 Project Site Location

The Norwood Gainey Riparian Buffer Restoration Site is located south of Goldsboro in
Wayne County, North Carolina. Care Road and residential housing border the project
study area to the north. Undeveloped land consisting of timberland and Bouge Swamp
borders the project study area to the west, south and east.
1.2 Directions to Project Site
Directions to the project study area from Goldsboro are as follows: From U.S. Highway
70, take State Highway 111 south for 3.5 to 4.0 miles. Take a right on Care Road (dirt
road). Follow Care Road until you reach a metal gate; take a left before the gate. The
project study area consists of the fallow soybean fields and the existing borrow pit
located along the southern project boundary.
1.3 USGS Hydrologic Unit Code and NCDWQ River Basin Designations
The project study area is located within United States Geologic Survey (USGS)
Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC) 03020202 (USGS 1974) and is located within the Neuse
River Basin (sub-basin 05).

RIPARIAN BUFFER RESTORATION PLAN
i 2.0 WATERSHED CHARACTERIZATION
1 2.1 Drainage Area
The drainage area of the 58.38-acre project study area is approximately 67 acres. Man-
made drainage ditches surrounding most the project study area intercept much of the
1 water flow before it reaches the areas proposed for riparian buffer restoration. The
extent of these drainage ditches is depicted in figure 7.0.1 Existing Conditions.
2.2 Surface Water Classification / Water Quality
The project study area is adjacent to Bouge Swamp, which is a historic oxbow swamp
system of the Neuse River. Bouge Swamp does not have an individual Stream Index
Number (SIN) or a Best Usage Classification according to the North Carolina
Waterbodies Report website provided by North Carolina Department of Environment
and Natural Resources (DENR). The ditches located in the project study area flow
generally in a southerly direction into adjacent Bouge Swamp and then into the Neuse
River. This particular section of the Neuse River [SIN 27-(56)] has been assigned a
Best Usage Classification (BUC) of C; NSW. Class C waters are freshwaters protected
for secondary recreation, fishing, aquatic life (including propagation and survival), and
wildlife. Secondary recreation is any activity involving human body contact with water
on an infrequent or incidental basis. The supplemental classification NSW indicates
I Nutrient Sensitive Waters, which require limitations on nutrient inputs.
2.3 Physiography, Geology and Soils
The project study area is located in the Coastal Plain physiographic province. The
topography in the project study area is generally characterized as nearly level to gently
sloping. Surface elevations in the project study area range from 55 feet to 58 feet mean
sea level. The ditch elevations range between 52 feet and 54.5 feet mean sea level.
Soils development is dependent upon biotic and abiotic factors which include past
geologic activities, nature of parent material, environmental and human influences, plant
and animal activity, age of sediments, climate, and topographic position. General soils
associations incorporate areas with distinctive patterns of soils, relief, and drainage.
1 Overall, soils within the project study area have been significantly disturbed by
agricultural or borrow pit development. Increased runoff and its associated elevated
water velocities contribute to higher erosion potential. The Soil Survey of Wayne
I County, North Carolina (USDA 1974) lists the following soil mapping units as occurring
within the project study area: Dragston loamy sand, Lumbee sandy loam, and Leaf loam
(figure 3.0.2). Lumbee sandy loam and Leaf loam are considered to be hydric soils.
Dragston loamy sand is a non-hydric soil that may contain hydric inclusions. More
detailed soil information is provided in later sections of this report.

2.4 Existing and Historical Land Use
The project study area is rural in nature and with the surrounding landscape dominated
by a mixture of forested communities and agricultural land.
i The project study area has been historically utilized for crop production. The most
recent crops planted were soybeans. A small borrow pit has been excavated along the
' southern boundary of the project study area. A portion of this borrow area has become
naturalized with the remainder consisting of open water. Adjacent land use consists of
timberland, Bouge Swamp, and residential homes. The USDA Farm Service does not
identify the agricultural land within the project study area as prior converted cropland
2.5 Endangered/Threatened Species
Species with the federal classification of Endangered (E), Threatened (T) or officially
Proposed (P) for such listing are protected under the Endangered Species Act (ESA) of
1973 (16 USC 1531 et seq.). Within Wayne County these species include: red-
cockaded woodpecker (Picoides borealis). Records held by the N.C. Natural Heritage
Program (NHP) were reviewed on December 8, 2005. No federally protected species
have been documented within 3.0 miles of the project study area. Habitat for the red-
cockaded woodpecker does not occur within the project study area. Adjacent property
to the west contains a significant amount of planted pine, however the groundcover is
relatively thick and the pines do not appear to be old enough to support either nesting or
I foraging habitat for the RCW.
2.6 Cultural Resources
A letter dated 12 December 2005 was submitted to the State Historic Preservation
Office (SHPO) requesting comments on the proposed project with regard to cultural and
historical resources. A response from SHPO dated 19 December 2005 was received
and is included in Appendix C. Additional SHPO coordination will occur upon NCEEP
Project Manager approval.
2.7 Potential Constraints
No site constraints that would compromise this project have been identified as of the
date of this draft report.
3.0 PROJECT SITE RIPARIAN BUFFER (existing conditions)
The existing riparian buffers adjacent to the onsite agriculture ditches and the borrow pit
consist of soybean fields and a dirt access road. Crop cultivation has occurred up to the
edge of these ditches in most locations. No areas of concentrated flow were observed
along the onsite ditches.
' These agriculture ditches average approximately 8 to 10 feet wide and their elevations
range from 52 feet to 54.5 feet above mean sea level. Overall, the project study area
I contains 13,660 linear feet of agriculture ditches. Of this total, 7,471 linear feet occur
along the perimeter of the project study area and 6,189 linear feet occur in the

RIPARIAN BUFFER RESTORATION PLAN
interior of the project site. The proposed riparian buffer restoration plan proposes to
buffer all 13, 660 linear feet of ditches.
3.1 Plant Community Characterization
The existing riparian buffers that are adjacent to the onsite agriculture ditches consist of
previously harvested soybeans. Native herbaceous vegetation occurring within the
actual ditches includes such species as softrush (Juncus effusus), cattail (Typha sp.),
giant cane (Arundinaria gigantea), and tearthumb (Polygonum sp.). Sapling size tree
species also occur sporadically within the ditches and consists of red maple (Acer
rubrum), sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciflua), and black willow (Salix nigra).
3.2 Hydrologic Characterization
Site hydrology is driven primarily by precipitation and surface runoff. The network of
onsite agriculture ditches intercepts the surface runoff and directs the water offsite
toward Bouge Swamp. "Guidelines for Riparian Buffer Restoration" indicate that the
existing water table depth on sites proposed for buffer restoration should be between
three and four feet below the ground surface based on characteristics of soil cores. The
gauge data described below is intended to provide additional water table information in
addition to the soil characteristics described in later sections.
Additional DWQ guidance described in Internal DWQ Guidance for the Calculation of
Riparian Buffer Mitigation Credits and Criteria for Riparian Buffer Mitigation Projects
dated 23 October 2002 indicates that the water table within the ditch should be within
three feet of the surface. Normal high water indicators within the onsite ditches were
evaluated and it was determined that the water table within the onsite ditches do meet
this criteria. These indicators consisted of occasional scour lines and the prevalence of
aquatic vegetation.
3.2.1 Gauge Data
Two Ecotone® groundwater monitoring gauges were installed on 21 December 2005 in
1 order to document groundwater levels within the project study area. The locations of
these two gauges are depicted in the attached plans. Gauge 1 is located along the
eastern boundary near the forested edge of Bouge Swamp. Gauge 1 was installed in
' an area of Dragston sandy loam. Gauge 2 is more centrally located in the project study
area and was installed in an area of Leaf loam. Data collected by these two gauges is
being downloaded periodically and is provided in Appendix D.
The results show that groundwater levels at Gauge 1 range from 18.8 inches to 34.2
' inches below the ground surface. This is within the range of the published seasonal
high water table of 1.5 feet for Dragston loamy sand.

a KO & ASSOCIATES, P. C. Page 8
Consulting Engineers

Project ID No. D06058S
Norwood Gainey Site / Wayne County, North Carolina
RIPARIAN BUFFER RESTORATION PLAN
Groundwater levels at Gauge 2 range from 17.8 inches to 23.8 inches below the ground
surface as of the latest download event on 16 January 2005. This data shows that
during the non-growing season (i.e. wet season) the water table is often less than 2 feet
below the ground surface.
3.3 Soil Characterization
Mr. Josh Witherspoon of ESI, a North Carolina licensed soil scientist, visited the project
study area on 16 January 2006. The purpose was to verify the soil-mapping units that
are identified by the county soil survey mapping. Additional data that was collected is
described below. Eight soil borings were advanced across the project study area to a
minimum of four feet below the ground surface. Two of these borings verified two of the
soil-mapping units and are documented on Soil Profile Description data forms provided
in Appendix B.
3.3.1 Taxonomic Classification
The Soil Survey of Wayne County, North Carolina (USDA 1974) lists the following soil
mapping units as occurring within the project study area: Dragston loamy sand (Aquic
Hapludult), Lumbee sandy loam (Typic Ochraquult), and Leaf loam (Typic Albaquult).
Soil borings reveal that the majority of the project study area consists of Dragston loamy
sand. Small areas consisting of Leaf loam were confirmed, but it is believed to be a
result of inclusions within the Dragston series instead of a discrete mapping unit within
the project study area. No borings provided conclusive evidence of Lumbee sandy
loam within the project study area. The area mapped as containing Lumbee sandy
loam is likely Dragston loamy sand based on boring results. If Lumbee sandy loam
occurs, it is likely to consist of small inclusions within the Dragston series.
3.3.2 Soil Characteristics
Dragston loamy sand - Dragston loamy sand consists of somewhat poorly drained,
nearly level soils in smooth, flat areas on broad interstream divides on uplands and
terraces.
The surface horizons generally extended to depths of 6 to 12 inches below the ground
surface (BGS) with textures ranging from loamy sand to fine sandy loam. Soil structure
within these horizons was generally weak, medium granular structure. The subsoil
horizons extended from 6 to 12 inches to 50 inches BGS with textures ranging from fine
sandy loam to sandy clay loam. Soil structure within these horizons generally included
weak, fine subangular blocky structure.
Leaf loam - Leaf loam consists of poorly drained, nearly level soils on broad, smooth
flats on terraces and in shallow drainages on uplands.

Project ID No. D06058S

RIPARIAN BUFFER RESTORATION PLAN
' The surface horizons generally extended to depths of 8 to 10 inches BGS with textures
ranging from sandy loam to loam. Soil structure within these horizons was generally
weak, medium granular structure. The subsoil horizons extended 8 to 10 inches to
greater than 45 inches BGS with textures ranging from clay loam to clay. Soil structure
within these horizons was generally weak medium subangular blocky structure.
' 3.3.3 Apparent Seasonal High Water Table
Dragston loamy sand - Identification of the seasonal high water (SHWT) table for this
evaluation is based on the presence of low chroma (Munsell color of chroma 2 or less)
redoximorphic features present in the soil profile. Based on field observations of low
chroma colors present within the soil profile, the SHWT for the Dragston soils was at
approximately 18 inches BGS.
Leaf loam - Identification of the SHWT for this evaluation is based on the presence of
low chroma (Munsell color of chroma 2 or less) redoximorphic features present in the
' soil profile. Based on field observations of low chroma colors present within the soil
profile, the SHWT for the Leaf soils was at approximately 12 inches BGS.
3.3.4 Chemical Analysis
Subsurface soil samples were obtained from the two representative borings in the
Dragston and Leaf series. These samples have been sent to a certified lab for analysis.
' The following parameters will be analyzed: pH, total nitrogen, and total phosphorus.
This data will help determine if certain soil amendments are necessary prior to planting.
The results of the lab analysis have not been received as of the date of this report
' submittal. The two soil samples were analyzed by A&L Eastern Laboratories, Inc. in
Richmond, Virginia on 1/24/2006. The analysis tested each sample for the following:
organic matter, estimated nitrogen release, available phosphorus, potassium,
magnesium, calcium, pH, and cation exchange capacity.
Plant growth is limited by nitrogen more than any other substance except water.
' Generally, the slower and more consistent a Nitrogen form releases, the better it is and
the more value it has for the planted specimens. The sample of Dragston loamy sand
consists of 0.4% Organic Matter and has an Estimated Nitrogen Release (ENR) rate of
54 Ibs/acre. Leaf loam consists of 0.7% Organic Matter and has an ENR rate of 56
Ibs/acre. The slightly higher organic matter percentage corresponds to the slightly
higher ENR rate for Leaf loam. Most newly planted trees and shrubs loose some root
mass during the transplanting process. High ENR rates may promote accelerated
canopy growth and too little root growth. The current ENR rates within the project study
' area are considered very low and fertilizer may be necessary after the transplanted
trees and shrubs have been in the ground for one year after planting. Consultation with
EEP on February 28, 2006 indicates that lower nitrogen levels are better for young trees
and shrubs and most old agriculture fields can be successfully planted if the soil
remains in good condition. Typically, problems are not encountered with the sol

i
' condition unless the analysis reveals parameters that are excessively low or high (i.e off
the scale).
Leaf loam was found to be more acidic with a pH of 5.0 while Dragston loamy sand had
a pH of 6.9. The pH of Dragston loamy sand is slightly higher than estimated by the
Soil Survey of Wayne County, which ranges from 4.5 - 5.5. The pH of Leaf loam is
within the expected range of 4.5 - 6.5 per the soil survey.
The results of the soil analysis do not reveal any significant problems that, in our
' professional opinion, will negatively affect planting. The Soil Analysis Report is
provided in Appendix B.
4.0 REFERENCE BUFFER
The reference buffer is located along the western boundary along additional drainage
ditches that exit the project study area. This area was identified for use as a reference
area because it is a non jurisdictional area more consistent with what is proposed in the
project study area. Additionally, the soils appear to be more consistent to what has
been verified within the project study area.
4.1 Plant Community Characterization
Several areas along the reference buffer were investigated in order to gain a better
' understanding of the natural plant community composition. Vegetation occurring along
the reference buffer includes such species as red maple, sweetgum, water oak
(Quercus nigra), river birch, post oak (Quercus phellos), loblolly pine (Pinus taeda), wax
' myrtle (Myrica cerifera), and horsesugar (Symplocos tinctoria).
4.2 Hydrologic Characterization
No groundwater monitoring gauges were installed within the reference buffer.
Hydrology appears to be influenced primarily by precipitation and surface runoff.
' The ditches adjacent to the reference buffer are approximately 5 feet deep and
overbank flooding is not evident in the reference buffer.
' 4.3 Soil Characterization
4.3.1 Taxonomic Classification
The Soil Survey of Wayne County indicates that Dragston loamy sand and Leaf loam
occurs within the reference buffer. This is consistent with the soil-mapping units verified
throughout the majority of the project study area.
4.3.2 Soil Characterization
The Soil Survey of Wayne County maps the soil type within the reference buffer areas
' as Dragstom loamy sand and Leaf loam. This was not confirmed due to the disturbed

nature of this area, although the soil profile does resemble the normal Dragston loamy
sand and Leaf loam profiles found in the adjacent fields.
4.3.3 Apparent Seasonal High Water Table
The seasonal high water table for Dragston loamy sand appears to be 18 inches below
the ground surface and approximately 12 inches below the ground surface for Leaf loam
(USDA 1974). This is assuming normal circumstances. The drainage ditch adjacent to
the reference buffer is affecting the seasonal high water table due to its depth. This
ditch is deeper than the agriculture ditches occurring in the project study area.
5.0 PROJECT SITE WETLAND
5.1 Jurisdictional Wetlands
One jurisdictional wetland area was identified and delineated within the project study
area. The jurisdictional delineation was reviewed and approved by Scott Jones of the
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE) on 29 December 2005. Mr. Jones did not exert
federal jurisdiction over the existing agriculture ditches. ACOE will be sending the
project team a Notice of Jurisdictional Determination tear sheet. The Notice of
Jurisdictional Determination was received from the Corps of Engineers on of March 13,
2006 and is included within Appendix H.
This wetland consists of a remnant borrow/gravel pit that was excavated an unknown
number of years ago. The limits of the jurisdictional wetland area are depicted on Figure
7.0.1. A portion of the borrow area consists of open water with depths exceeding 6.0
feet. This open water area can be characterized as a palustrine, unconsolidated bottom
(PUB) wetland pursuant to Cowardin et.a/. (1979) and encompasses approximately 2.3
acres. The open water portion of the wetland grades up into the second wetland type
contained in this borrow area. This second wetland type, which consists of an area that
was only slightly excavated, can be characterized as a palustrine emergent (PEM)
wetland and encompasses approximately 5.4 acres. A refined wetland delineation will
be conducted prior to the final report to more accurately distinguish between the open
water and the emergent wetland.
5.2 Hydrological Characterization
No hydrology monitoring is being conducted within the existing wetland area. Hydrology
within the jurisdictional wetland area is influenced by precipitation, surface runoff, and
groundwater. The remnant borrow area is separated from adjacent Bouge Swamp by a
small berm and ditch. No outfall was observed leaving the open water area, therefore
the hydrologic connection to adjacent Bouge Swamp is through a groundwater
connection.

RIPARIAN BUFFER RESTORATION PLAN
5.3 Soil Characterization
The Soil Survey of Wayne County maps the soil type within the existing wetland area as
Dragstom loamy sand. This was not confirmed due to the disturbed nature of this area
resulting from previous borrow activities.
5.4 Plant Community Characterization
The plant community occurring in this wetland results from past disturbance associated
with borrow activities. It does not represent a natural (i.e. undisturbed) plant community
that can be easily classified according to Schafale and Weakley (1990) or NatureServe.
The wetland community can be characterized primarily as PEM pursuant to Cowardin.
Dominant herbaceous species include woolgrass (Scirpus cyperinus), softrush, meadow
beauty (Rhexia sp.), seedbox, beakrush (Rhynchospora sp.), and pennywort
(Hydrocotyle umbellata). Some woody species have recruited into this wetland area and
include false willow (Bacharris angustifolia) along with red maple and sweetgum
seedlings. An area of open water approximately 6 inches deep is present between two
adjacent areas of herbaceous vegetation. Small hummocks occur throughout this
wetland area and offer topographic gradients that are beneficial to the ecological value
of the wetland.
6.0 REFERENCE WETLAND
Bouge Swamp will serve as the reference wetland for the proposed onsite wetland
enhancement area.
6.1 Locations and General Description
The reference wetland (Bouge Swamp) is located along the eastern boundary of the
project study area. Bouge Swamp consists of a historic oxbow of the Neuse River that
has been partially ditched. National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) mapping describes the
portion of Bouge Swamp adjacent to the project study area as palustrine, forested,
broad-leaved deciduous (PF01).
6.2 Hydrological Characterization
No groundwater monitoring gauges were installed within the reference wetland.
' Hydrology in Bouge Swamp is influenced by precipitation, surface runoff and
groundwater. Saturation at the surface and inundation has been directly observed
within Bouge Swamp on several occasions during field visits. NWI mapping depicts this
' portion of Bouge Swamp as having a hydrologic regime defined as seasonally flooded
and partially ditched.
6.3 Soil Characterization
The Soil Survey of Wayne County indicates that Bibb sandy loam (Typic Fluvaquent) is
the primary soil mapping unit within this portion of Bouge Swamp. Bibb sandy loam is a
' poorly drained soil found on floodplains. Slopes are typically 0 to 2 percent. Infiltration

RIPARIAN BUFFER RESTORATION PLAN
is moderate and surface runoff is slow. Unless artificially drained, this soil has severe
limitations for most uses. Most acreage is in mixed hardwoods and pines (USDA 1974).
6.4 Plant Community Characterization
Dominant woody vegetation occurring within Bouge Swamp includes such species as
red maple, sweetgum, sweet bay (Magnolia virginiana), ironwood, (Carpinus
caroliniana), water oak, river birch, and titi (Cyrilla racemiflora). Scattered bald cypress
(Taxodium distichum) was also present. The herbaceous layer is sparse and consist of
black stem chain fern (Woodwardia virginica), giant cane, and sphagnum moss
' (Sphagum sp.). This natural plant community can be classified as a Coastal Plain
Bottomland Hardwood Forest based on Schafale and Weakley (1990). This portion of
Bouge Swamp is an abandoned oxbow that appears to have possibly reverted from an
' oxbow lake off the Neuse River to a mature hardwood wetland community over possibly
hundreds of years.
7.0 PROJECT SITE RESTORATION PLAN
7.1 Restoration Project Goals and Objectives
' The objective is to effectively restore forested riparian buffers along the onsite
agriculture ditches that are conveying surface runoff toward Bouge Swamp and
ultimately into the Neuse River. It is anticipated that approximately 13,660 linear feet of
riparian buffer encompassing approximately 31.36 acres (based on 50-foot buffer on
each side of ditch) can be restored along the onsite agriculture ditches. These restored
buffers will consist of forested communities extending a minimum of 50 feet from the
edge of each agriculture ditch. Zones of herbaceous buffer (grassland) may be
incorporated beyond the initial 50-foot buffer. These grassland buffers will encompass
approximately 26.2 acres. The buffers will provide habitat protection as a result of the
restoration (e.g., food for foraging wildlife). There will also be removal of nutrient source
as a result of elimination of agricultural practices.
' Wetland enhancement will be accomplished by establishing native wetland trees and
shrubs within the suitable portion of the existing borrow area. This borrow area has
been determined to be jurisdictional by the ACOE. However, a portion of this borrow
area currently consists of open water and cannot effectively be used for wetland
enhancement under the current project goals and objectives. The open water area will
remain in its current condition. It is anticipated that approximately 5.4 acres of riparian
' wetland enhancement will result from this project.
7.1.1 Target Wetland Communities
The target wetland community resulting from the wetland enhancement activities will
comprise tree and shrub species found in the adjacent Bouge Swamp system. Bouge
Swamp is classified as a PF01 C wetland and is consistent with a Coastal Plain
' Bottomland Hardwood Forest. Hydrology within the wetland enhancement area will be
' KO & ASSOCIATES, R C. Page 14
Consulting Engineers

' Project ID No. D06058S
Norwood Gainey Site / Wayne County, North Carolina
RIPARIAN BUFFER RESTORATION PLAN
influenced by precipitation, surface runoff, groundwater, and overbank flooding from the
adjacent open water area. The hydrologic influences are consistent with what would be
expected from a natural bottomland hardwood system.
' 7.1.2 Target Riparian Buffer Communities
The target community for the riparian buffer restoration is a Mesic Mixed Hardwood
' Forest (Coastal Plain Subtype) based on Schafale and Weakley (1990). This
community type often borders Coastal Plain Bottomland Hardwoods such as Bouge
Swamp. Soils typically consist of moist upland soils such as those in the taxonomic
subgroup of Aquic Hapludults, which includes Dragston loamy sand.
7.2 Soil Preparation and Amendment
' Onsite soil preparation may include plowing or ripping the soil surface to improve
compacted soil and promote micro-topography per the Guidelines for Riparian Buffer
Restoration. Earthwork activities will be very minor and will not cause any alterations to
I the existing floodplain elevations. Possible soil amendments are not known at this time.
Results of the lab analysis have not been received as of the date of this draft report.
' 7.3 Natural Plant Community Restoration
The restoration of the riparian buffers and the enhancement of the wetland area will be
accomplished through planting desirable native vegetation at appropriate densities per
' the Guidelines for Riparian Buffer Restoration.

Project ID No. D06058S
Norwood Gainey Site / Wayne County, North Carolina
RIPARIAN BUFFER RESTORATION PLAN
7.3.1 Riparian Buffer Restoration
The 50-foot riparian buffers adjacent to the onsite agriculture ditches will be planted with
native bare root tree species on 10-foot centers providing a density of approximately
440 trees per acre. A density of 320 surviving trees per acre is necessary for success
at the end of the anticipated 5-year monitoring period. Zones 1 and 2 of the restored
riparian buffers will be planted with the following tree species: persimmon (Diospyros
virginiana), river birch, water oak, swamp chestnut oak (Quercus michauxii), winged elm
(Ulmus alata), sassafras (Sassafras albidum), black cherry (Prunus serotina),
horsesugar, and flowering dogwood (Corpus florida).
Native shrub species will be incorporated into the Zone 2 planting plan in order to
provide more diversity and to enhance wildlife habitat. Shrubs will be planted on 13-foot
centers providing a density of approximately 260 shrubs per acre. Although these
shrubs will be monitored, they will not contribute to the required 320 stems/acre
necessary for success of the planted trees. The following shrub species are proposed
for planting within Zone 2: highbush blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum), red
chokeberry (Aronia arbutifolia), American beautyberry (Calicarpa americana), sweet
pepperbush (Clethra alnifolia), and winged sumac (Rhus copallina).
A seed mixture of perennial native grasses is proposed for use in the herbaceous areas
outside the immediate 50-riparian buffer. This native grass seed mixture will also be
spread throughout the Zone 1 and Zone 2 in order to provide additional cover and
increase the overall effectiveness of the riparian buffer. The native grass mixture will
consist of a mixture of several of the following native grass species: broomsedge
(Andropogon virginicus), deertongue (Panicum clandestinum), switchgrass (Panicum
virgatum), indiangrass (Sorghastrum nutans), purple-top (Tridens flavus).
It is anticipated that the riparian buffer planting will occur either outside the normal
growing season or very early in the growing season to reduce the chance of stressing
the plants. The normal growing season for Wayne County is identified as March 17 -
November 14 by the county soil survey.
7.3.2 Wetland Enhancement
The 5.4 acre wetland enhancement area will be planted with native bare root wetland
trees on 10-foot centers providing a density of approximately 440 per acre. A density of
320 surviving trees per acre is necessary for success at the end of the anticipated 5-
year monitoring period. Tree species proposed for planting include the following: red
maple, sweet bay, river birch, and green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica). Shrub species
proposed for planting include Virginia willow (Itea virginica) and red chokeberry. (Aronia
arbutifolia).

RIPARIAN BUFFER RESTORATION PLAN
7.3.3 On-site Invasive Species Management
The monitoring plan will address noxious or invasive species by conducting bi-annual
inspections of the restoration site. One inspection will occur early in the growing season
and the second will occur concurrently with the annual monitoring report that is typically
conducted in the fall. Occurrences of invasive species will immediately be reported to
NCEEP. There are currently no problems with invasive weed within the limits of
proposed planting; however there is a possibility that invasive species could recruit into
the area during the growing season if the field lies fallow until future planting occurs. A
temporary cover of rye grass may help suppress invasive weeds during the 2006
growing season.
8.0 PERFORMANCE CIRTERIA AND MONITORING PLAN
8.1 Riparian Buffers
Success criteria for riparian buffer restoration are outlined in the Guidelines for Riparian
Buffer Restoration. The restored riparian buffers will be considered successful if a
density of 320 trees per acre can be demonstrated at maturity. It is assumed that the
normal monitoring period for a mitigation site such as this will be five years. The shrub
planting is proposed as supplemental to the tree planting and will not be included in the
documented success criteria. However, the survival rates of the planted shrubs will be
documented throughout the monitoring period concurrently with the tree monitoring. As
with the shrubs, the herbaceous planting zone outside of Zone 2 will not be tied directly
to success criteria although total herbaceous coverage of 80 percent is desirable at the
end of the monitoring period. The herbaceous zone will also be monitored concurrently
with the forested buffer.
' Mitigation monitoring guidelines require that 5 percent of the total mitigation type must
be sampled. Therefore, 5 percent of the total area restored as a forested riparian buffer
will be sampled by establishing the appropriate number of 10 meter (m) x 10m plots.
The sample plot locations will be marked with sections of metal conduit and flagging
tape. Surviving trees and shrubs within these plots will be counted during each
monitoring event to document surviving density within the mitigation site.
' Representative photographs of each sample plot will be taken and included with the
monitoring report. No hydrology monitoring is proposed within the riparian buffer
restoration areas.
' Five percent of the herbaceous zone will also be sampled via 10m x 10m sample plots.
Percent coverage of planted and naturally recruited vegetation will be estimated.
Representative photographs of each sample plot will be taken and included with the
monitoring report.

RIPARIAN BUFFER RESTORATION PLAN
' 8.2 Wetland Enhancement
Success of the wetland enhancement area also requires 320 trees to be surviving at the
end of the five-year monitoring period. Shrubs will be documented during monitoring,
but will not be included as part of the success criteria. The two monitoring wells
currently located in the existing fields will be relocated to the wetland enhancement area
in order to document seasonal hydrologic conditions. No success criteria are proposed
' for the open water area that is to remain adjacent to the wetland enhancement area.
Mitigation monitoring guidelines require that 5 percent of the total mitigation type must
be sampled. An appropriate number of 10m x 10m sample plots will be established in
the wetland enhancement area. The sample plot locations will be marked with sections
of metal conduit and flagging tape. Surviving trees and shrubs within these plots will be
counted during each monitoring event to document surviving density within the
mitigation site. Representative photographs of each sample plot will be taken and
included with the monitoring report. Hydrology data will be downloaded from the
1 monitoring wells located in the wetland enhancement area monthly during the growing
season and every two months during the non-growing season. No monitoring is
proposed for the open water area adjacent to the wetland enhancement area.
' 8.3 Schedule / Reporting
The appropriate number of sample plots will be immediately established onsite following
' planting of the riparian buffers and the wetland enhancement area. The location of
each of these plots will be located with GPS and depicted in subsequent monitoring
reports. A baseline (as-built) report will be prepared that documents the number of
planted trees and shrubs within each of the established sample plots. Results from
subsequent monitoring events will be compared back to these baseline numbers to
document percent survival and density. The first annual monitoring event will occur
after one complete growing season. The results of the first annual monitoring event will
be compiled into a report suitable for submittal to NCEEP. Subsequent annual
monitoring reports will be completed at approximately the same time each year to
' provide consistency in data collection and reporting.

Approximate size of jurisdictional area: approximately 10 acres.
There are "isolated, non-navigable, intra-state waters or wetlands" within the reviewed area.
Decision supported by SWANCC/Migratory Bird Rule Information Sheet for Determination of No Jurisdiction.
' BASIS OF JURISDICTIONAL DETERMINATION:
A. Waters defined under 33 CFR part 329 as "navigable waters of the United States":
i The presence of waters that are subject to the ebb and flow of the tide and/or are presently used, or have been used in
' the past, or maybe susceptible for use to transport interstate or foreign commerce.
B. Waters defined under 33 CFR part 328.3(a) as "waters of the United States":
(1) The presence of waters, which are currently used, or were used in the past, or may be susceptible to use in
' interstate or foreign commerce, including all waters which are subject to the ebb and flow of the tide.
(2) The presence of interstate waters including interstate wetlands,.
(3) The presence of other waters such as intrastate lakes, rivers, streams (including intermittent streams), mudflats, sandflats,
wetlands, sloughs, prairie potholes, wet meadows, playa lakes, or natural ponds, the use, degradation or destruction of which could
' affect interstate commerce including any such waters (check all that apply):
? (i) which are or could be used by interstate or foreign travelers for recreational or other purposes.
? (ii) from which fish or shellfish are or could be taken and sold in interstate or foreign commerce.
? (iii) which are or could be used for industrial purposes by industries in interstate commerce.
(4) Impoundments of waters otherwise defined as waters of the US.
(5) The presence of a tributary to a water identified in (1) - (4) above.
HE (6) The presence of territorial seas.
(7) The presence of wetlands adjacent2 to other waters of the US, except for those wetlands adjacent to other wetlands.
' Rationale for the Basis of Jurisdictional Determination (applies to any boxes checked above). If the jurisdictional water or
wetland is not itself a navigable water of the United States, describe connection(s) to the downstream navigable waters. If 8(1) or B(3)
is used as the Basis of Jurisdiction, document navigability and/or interstate commerce connection (i.e., discuss site conditions, including
why the waterbody is navigable and/or how the destruction of the waterbody could affect interstate or foreign commerce). YB(2, 4, S or
I 6) is used as the Basis of Jurisdiction, document the rationale used to make the determination. IfB(7) is used as the Basis of
Jurisdiction, document the rationale used to make adjacency determination: This site exhibits wetland criteria as described in the 1987
Corps Wetland Delineation Manual and is part of a broad continuum of wetlands connected to the Neuse River.
