Solutions 1 Project Summary 0 Water and Land Solutions, LLC (WLS) completed the construction and planting of the Edwards -Johnson Mitigation Project (Project) full -delivery project for the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ), Division of Mitigation Services (DMS) in March 2018. The Project is located in Johnston County, North Carolina between the Community of Archer Lodge and the Town of Wendell at 35° 43' 30.36" North and 78° 21' 22.90" West. The Project site is located in the NCDEQ Sub -basin 03-04-06, in the Lower Buffalo Creek Priority Sub -watershed 030202011504 study area for the Neuse 01 Regional Watershed Plan (RWP), and in the Targeted Local Watershed 03020201180050, all of the Neuse River Basin. The Project involved the restoration, preservation and permanent protection of four stream reaches (R1, R2, R3, and R4) and their riparian buffers, totaling approximately 3,729 linear feet of existing streams. The Project construction and planting were completed in May 2018 and MY1 monitoring activities occurred between May and November 2018 (Table 2). This report documents the completion of and presents the data for the first year of monitoring (MY1). The Project meets the MY1 success criteria for stream hydrology, stream horizontal and vertical stability, streambed material condition and stability, and vegetation. Based on these results, the Project is expected to meet the Year 2 Monitoring success criteria in 2019. 2 Project Background 2.1 Project Location, Setting, and Existing Conditions The Edwards -Johnson Mitigation Project (Project) site is located in the Lower Buffalo Creek Priority Sub - watershed 030202011504 study area for the Neuse 01 Regional Watershed Plan (RWP), in the Wake - Johnston Collaborative Local Watershed Plan, and in the Targeted Local Watershed 03020201180050, all of the Neuse River Basin. The Project site is situated in the lower piedmont where potential for future development associated with the 1-540 corridor and rapidly growing Johnston County area is imminent, as described in the Regional Watershed Plan (RWP) for the Upper Neuse River Basin within Hydrologic Unit (HU) 03020201. The RWP identified and prioritized potential mitigation strategies to offset aquatic resource impacts from development and provided mitigation project implementation recommendations to improve ecological uplift within the Neuse 01 Sub -basin, which included traditional stream and wetland mitigation, buffer restoration, nutrient offsets, non-traditional mitigation projects such as stormwater and agricultural BMPs, and rare, threatened, or endangered (RTE) species habitat preservation or enhancement. The project included four stream reaches (R1, R2, R3, and R4) which involved the restoration, preservation and permanent protection of approximately3,729 linear feet of streams permanently protected by a conservation easement. The catchment area is 223 acres and has an impervious cover less than one percent. The dominant land uses are agriculture and mixed forest. Prior to Project construction, some of the riparian buffers were less than 50 feet wide. 2.2 Mitigation Project Goals and Objectives WLS established project mitigation goals and objectives based on the resource condition and functional capacity of the watershed to improve and protect diverse aquatic resources comparable to stable Edwards -Johnson Mitigation Project FINAL Monitoring Report Year 1 Page 1 Water & Land Solutions 0 headwater stream systems within the Piedmont Physiographic Province. The proposed mitigation types and design approaches described in the final approved mitigation plan considered the general restoration and resource protection goals and strategies outlined in the 2010 Neuse River Basin Restoration Priority Plan (RBRP). The functional goals and objectives were further defined in the 2013 Wake -Johnston Collaborative Local Watershed Plan (LWP) and 2015 Neuse 01 Regional Watershed Plan (RWP) and include: • Reducing sediment and nutrient inputs to the upper Buffalo Creek Watershed, • Restoring, preserving and protecting wetlands, streams, riparian buffers and aquatic habitat, • Implementing agricultural BMPs and stream restoration in rural catchments together as "project clusters". The following site specific goals were developed to address the primary concerns outlined in the LWP and RWP and include: • Restore stream and floodplain interaction and geomorphically stable conditions by reconnecting historic flow paths and promoting more natural flood processes, • Improve and protect water quality by reducing streambank erosion, nutrient and sediment inputs, • Restore and protect riparian buffer functions and habitat connectivity in perpetuity by recording a permanent conservation easement, • Implement agricultural BMPs to reduce nonpoint source inputs to receiving waters. To accomplish these site-specific goals, the following function -based objectives will be measured and included with the performance standards to document overall project success as described in the table below: Improve Base Flow Reconnect Floodplain / Increase Floodprone Area Widths Improve Bedform Diversity Increase Lateral Stability Enhance Riparian Buffer Vegetation Improve Water Quality Improve Macroinvertebrate Community and Aquatic Species Health Remove man-made pond dam and restore a more natural flow regime and aquatic passage. Lower BHRs from >2.0 to 1.0-1.2 and maintain ERs at 2.2 or greater. Increase riffle/pool percentage to 70/30 and pool -to -pool spacing ratio 4-7X bankfull width. Reduce BEHI/NBS streambank erosion rates comparable to downstream reference condition and stable cross-section values. Plant or protect native species vegetation a minimum 50' wide from the top of the streambanks with a composition/density comparable to reference condition. Install water quality treatment basins along the riparian corridor and reduce sediment and nutrient levels. Incorporate native woody debris and bedform diversity into channel and change DWR bioclassification rating from 'Poor' to a minimum 'Fair' by Monitoring Year 7. Edwards -Johnson Mitigation Project FINAL Monitoring Report Year 1 Page 2 Water & Land Solutions 4 2.3 Project History, Contacts, and Timeframe The chronology of the project history and activity is presented in Table 2. Relevant project contact information is presented in Table 3. Relevant project background information is presented in Table 4. The final mitigation plan and PCN were submitted to DMS September 29, 2017 for submission to the NCIRT. The Section 404 General (Regional and Nationwide) Permit Verification was issued January 12, 2018. Project construction started on March 23, 2018 and mitigation site earthwork and mitigation site planting were completed on May 5, 2018, both by RiverWorks Construction. Trueline Surveying, PC completed the as -built survey in June 2018. WLS completed the installation of baseline monitoring devices on May 14, 2018 and the installation of survey monumentation and conservation easement boundary marking on August 13, 2018. Refer to Figure 1 and Table 1 for the project components/asset information. A recorded conservation easement consisting of 10.96 acres protects and preserves all stream reaches, existing wetland areas, and riparian buffers in perpetuity. 3 Project Mitigation Components 3.1 Stream Mitigation Types and Approaches Stream restoration practices involved raising the existing streambed and reconnecting the stream to the relic floodplain. Some portions of the existing degraded channels that were abandoned within the restoration areas were filled to decrease surface and subsurface drainage and raise the local water table. The project also included restoring, enhancing and protecting riparian buffers and riparian wetlands within the conservation easement. The vegetative components of this project included stream bank, floodplain, and transitional upland zones planting. The Site was planted with native species riparian buffer vegetation (Appendix C) and now protected through a permanent conservation easement. Table 1 and Figure 1 (Appendix A) provide a summary of the project components. 3.1.1 R1 Preservation Preservation was implemented along this reach since the existing stream and wetland system is mostly stable with a mature riparian buffer due to minimal historic impacts. The preservation area is being protected in perpetuity through a permanent conservation easement. This approach will extend the wildlife corridor from the Buffalo Creek floodplain boundary throughout a majority of the riparian valley, while providing a hydrologic connection and critical habitat linkage within the catchment area. 3.1.2 R2 Restoration Work along R2 involved a Priority Level I Restoration approach by raising the bed elevation and reconnecting the stream with its abandoned floodplain. This approach will promote more frequent over bank flooding in areas with hydric soils, thereby creating favorable conditions for wetland re- establishment. The reach was restored using appropriate riffle -pool morphology with a conservative meander planform geometry that accommodates the valley slope and width. This approach allowed restoration of a stable channel form with appropriate bedform diversity, as well as, improved biological functions through increased aquatic and terrestrial habitats. Proposed in -stream structures included constructed wood riffles for grade control and habitat, log j -hook vanes, and log weirs/jams for encouraging step -pool formation energy dissipation, bank stability, and bedform diversity. Riparian Edwards -Johnson Mitigation Project FINAL Monitoring Report Year 1 Page 3 Water & Land Solutions 4 buffers greater than 50 feet were enhanced and will be protected along the entire length of R2. Mature trees and significant native vegetation were protected and incorporated into the design. Bioengineering techniques such as vegetated geolifts and live stakes were also used to protect streambanks and promote woody vegetation growth along the streambanks. The existing unstable channel was filled to an elevation sufficient to connect the new bankfull channel to its active floodplain using suitable fill material excavated from the newly restored channels and remnant spoil piles. Additionally, water quality treatment basins were installed to reduce direct sediment and nutrient inputs. 3.1.3 R3 (Upper Reach) Restoration A Priority Level I Restoration approach was implemented for the upstream portion to improve stream functions and water quality. Prior to restoration activities, the reach exhibited both lateral and vertical instability, as shown by active headcuts and moderate bank erosion. A new single -thread meandering channel was constructed offline in this area before reconnecting with multiple relic channel features and the existing channel alignment farther downstream. In -stream structures, including log riffles, log weirs and log vanes were used to dissipate flow energy, protect streambanks, and eliminate potential for future incision. Shallow floodplain depressions and vernal pools were created or preserved in the floodplain to provide habitat diversity, nutrient cycling, and improved treatment of overland flows. Restored streambanks were graded to stable side slopes and the floodplain was reconnected to further promote stability and hydrological function. 3.1.4 R3 (Lower Reach) Preservation Preservation was implemented along this reach since the existing stream and wetland system is mostly stable with a mature riparian buffer due to minimal historic impacts. The preservation is being protected in perpetuity through a permanent conservation easement. This approach will extend the wildlife corridor from the Buffalo Creek floodplain boundary throughout a majority of the riparian valley, while providing a hydrologic connection and critical habitat linkage within the catchment area. 3.1.5 R4 Restoration The restoration of R4 involved raising the existing bed elevation gradually to reconnect the stream with its active floodplain. Prior to restoration activities, the existing channel began experiencing backwater conditions and sediment aggradation from a man-made pond. The failing dam and remnant spoil piles were removed and the pond was drained to reconnect the new stream channel with its geomorphic floodplain. Channel and floodplain excavation in this reach segment included the removal of shallow legacy sediments (approx. 12" depth) to accommodate a new bankfull channel and in -stream structures, as well as a more natural step -pool morphology using grade control structures in the steeper transitional areas. Shallow floodplain depressions were created to provide habitat diversity, nutrient cycling, and improved treatment of overland flows. Riparian buffers greater than 50 feet were restored and protected along all R4. 3.2 Wetlands Mitigation Types and Approaches Wetland mitigation credits are not contracted or proposed for this project. 4 Performance Standards The applied success criteria for the Project will follow necessary performance standards and monitoring protocols presented in final approved mitigation plan. Annual monitoring and semi-annual site visits will Edwards -Johnson Mitigation Project FINAL Monitoring Report Year 1 Page 4 Water & Land Solutions 4 be conducted to assess the condition of the project throughout the monitoring period. Monitoring activities will be conducted for a period of seven (7) years with the final duration dependent upon performance trends toward achieving project goals and objectives. The following Proposed Monitoring Plan Summary from the approved final mitigation plan summarizes the measurement methods and performance standards. Specific success criteria components and evaluation methods follow. Improve Base Flow Duration and Overbank Flows (Le channel forming discharge) Reconnect Floodplain / Increase Floodprone Area Widths Remove man-made pond, well device (pressure transducer), regional curve, regression equations, catchment assessment Bank Height Ratio, Entrenchment Ratio, crest gauge Maintain seasonal flow for a minimum of 30 consecutive days during normal annual rainfall.

Edwards -Johnson Mitigation Project FINAL Monitoring Report Year 1 Page 5 Water & Land Solutions 4 4.1 Streams 4.1.1 Stream Hydrology Two separate bankfull events must be documented within the seven-year monitoring period. These two bankfull events must occur in separate years. Otherwise, the stream monitoring will continue until two bankfull events have been documented in separate years. In addition to the two bankfull flow events, two "geomorphically significant" flow events (0,gs=0.66Q2) must also be documented during the monitoring period. There are no temporal requirements regarding the distribution of the geomorphically significant flows. 4.1.2 Stream Profiles, Vertical Stability, and Floodplain Access Stream profiles, as a measure of vertical stability will be evaluated by looking at Bank Height Ratios (BHR). The BHR shall not exceed 1.2 along the restored project reaches. This standard only applies to the restored project reaches where BHRs were corrected through design and construction. In addition, observed bedforms should be consistent with those observed for channels of the design stream type(s). Vertical stability and floodplain access will both be evaluated by looking at Entrenchment Ratios (ER). The ER shall be no less than 2.2 (>1.5 for "B" stream types) along the restored project stream reaches. This standard only applies to restored reaches of the channel where ERs were corrected through design and construction. 4.1.3 Stream Horizontal Stability Cross-sections will be used to evaluate horizontal stream stability. There should be little change expected in as -built restoration cross-sections. If measurable changes do occur, they should be evaluated to determine if the changes represent a movement toward a more unstable condition (e.g., downcutting, erosion) or a movement towards increased stability (e.g., settling, vegetation establishment, deposition along the streambanks, decrease in width/depth ratio). Cross-sections shall be classified using the Rosgen Stream Classification method and all monitored cross-sections should fall within the quantitative parameters defined for channels of the design stream type. 4.1.4 Streambed Material Condition and Stability After construction, there should be minimal change in the particle size distribution of the streambed materials, over time, given the current watershed conditions and future sediment supply regime. Since the streams are predominantly sand -bed systems with minimal fine/coarse gravel, some coarsening is anticipated after restoration activities, however significant changes in particle size distribution are not expected. 4.1.5 Jurisdictional Stream Flow The restored stream systems must be classified as at least intermittent, and therefore must exhibit base flow for some portion of the year during a year with normal rainfall conditions as described in the approved mitigation plan. 4.2 Vegetation Vegetative restoration success for the project during the intermediate monitoring years will be based on the survival of at least 320, three-year-old planted trees per acre at the end of Year 3 of the monitoring period and at least 260, five-year-old, planted trees per acre at the end of Year 5 of the monitoring period. The final vegetative restoration success criteria will be achieving a density of not less than 210, seven- year-old planted stems per acre in Year 7 of monitoring. Planted vegetation (for projects in coastal plain and piedmont counties) must average seven (7) feet in height at Year 5 of monitoring and ten (10) feet in Edwards -Johnson Mitigation Project FINAL Monitoring Report Year 1 Page 6 Water & Land Solutions 4 height at Year 7 of monitoring. For all of the monitoring years (Year 1 through Year 7), the number of Red maple (Acer rubrum) stems cannot exceed 20% of the total stems in any of the vegetation monitoring plots. 4.3 Wetlands Wetland mitigation credits are not contracted or proposed for this project. Wetland mitigation performance standards are therefore not included in this section. 5 Monitoring Year 1 Assessment and Results Annual monitoring was conducted during MY1 in accordance with the monitoring plan as described in the approved mitigation plan and was intended to document the site improvements based on restoration potential, catchment health, ecological stressors and overall constraints. All of the monitoring device locations are depicted on the CCPV (Figure 1). MY1 monitoring results are provided in the appendices. The Project meets the MY1 success criteria for stream hydrology, stream horizontal and vertical stability, and streambed material. All vegetation plots meet interim success criteria except veg plot 3 which appears to be experiencing prolonged wet conditions 5.1 Stream Hydrology Monitoring to document the occurrence of the two required bankfull events (overbank flows) and the two required "geomorphically significant" flow events (Qgs=0.66Q2) within the monitoring period, along with floodplain access by flood flows, is being conducted using a crest gauge, installed on December 12, 2018, on the floodplain of and across the dimension of the restored channel at the left top of bank of Reach R2, immediately upstream of the confluence of Reach R2 and R4 (Figure 1), to record the watermark associated with the highest flood stage between monitoring site visits. Photographs are also being used to document the occurrence of debris lines and sediment deposition on the floodplain during monitoring site visits. Because the crest gage was installed after the submission of the Draft As -built Baseline Monitoring Reports and Draft Monitoring Reports Year 1, only the described photographic measures will be used for Year 1 stream hydrologic monitoring. At least one bankfull events occurred during MY1. This event was documented using the described photography (Table 8). The documented occurrence of this flow event satisfies the requirement of the occurrence of one of the two bankfull events (overbank flows) and the one of the two "geomorphically significant" flow events (Qgs=0.66Q2) within the monitoring period, along with floodplain access by flood flows. 5.2 Stream Horizontal & Vertical Stability Visual assessment was utilized for assessment of MY1 horizontal and vertical stream stability. The visual assessments for each stream reach concluded that the MY1 stream channel pattern and longitudinal profiles, instream structure locations, still closely match the profile design parameters and MYO/baseline conditions. The MY1 plan form geometry or pattern still appears to fall within acceptable ranges of the design parameters for all restored reaches. Only minor channel adjustments in riffle slopes, pool depths and pattern were observed and therefore did not present a stability concern or indicate a need for remedial action. 5.3 Streambed Material Condition and Stability A representative sediment sample was collected to assess streambed material condition and stability. The dominant substrate for the project was verified as coarse sand. The post -construction riffle substrate Edwards -Johnson Mitigation Project FINAL Monitoring Report Year 1 Page 7 Water & Land Solutions 4 sampling indicated no significant change (e.g., aggradation, degradation, embeddedness) in streambed material condition or stability were observed during MY1. 5.4 Jurisdictional Stream Flow Documentation Jurisdictional stream flow documentation and monitoring of restored intermittent reaches includes a combination of photographic documentation and the installation of a monitoring gage (flow gage) (continuous -read pressure transducers) within the thalweg (bottom) of the channel towards the middle portion of the Reach R4 (Figure 1). Additionally, to determine if rainfall amounts are normal for the given year, precipitation data was obtained from the Johnston County weather station (COOP 317994), approximately twenty miles south of the site. The monitoring gage data for MY1 is incomplete and will be reconciled for MY2. The monitoring gage intended to document that the stream exhibited surface flow for a minimum of 30 consecutive days throughout some portion of the year during a year with normal rainfall conditions. WLS did observe stream flow along Reach R4, as well as along all of other project reaches, during each pre- and post -construction site visit in 2018, with WLS staff visiting the site on a monthly basis. These observations correspond do the monitoring flow gage documentation results at the nearby Lake Wendell and Pen Dell Mitigation Project Sites. 5.5 Vegetation Vegetation monitoring for MY1 was conducted utilizing the four (4) vegetation monitoring plots, with monitoring conducted in accordance with the CVS-EEP Level I & II Monitoring Protocol (CVS, 2008) and DMS Stream and Wetland Monitoring Guidelines (DMS, 2017). See Figure 1 in Appendix B for the vegetation monitoring plot locations. The MY1 average surviving planted stem density is 496 stems per acre, which exceeds the interim measure of vegetative success of at least 320 planted stems per acre at the end of the third monitoring year. Summary data and photographs of each plot can be found in Appendix 3. The MY1 vegetation monitoring was also conducted utilizing visual assessment along all of the Project stream reaches. The results of the visual assessment did not indicate any significant negative changes to the existing vegetation community. An area of concern was observed along R3 buffer near veg plot 3 as shown on the CCPV. This area was utilized as a partial haul road during construction and experienced prolonged wetness during planting activities. Veg plot 3 stem density was approximately 283 stems per acre which is below the interim success criteria. In addition, low stem density was observed along R4 near veg plot 4. These areas will be watched closely during MY2 monitoring and any remedial actions, if necessary, will be documented in the subsequent MY2 report. In addition, a slight buffer encroachment was observed along the R2 as shown on the CCPV. The conservation easement is marked in this area and the landowner has been notified. This area will be replanted in Winter 2019 and documented in the MY2 report. 5.6 Wetlands Wetland mitigation credits are not contracted or proposed for this project. One groundwater monitoring well was installed during the baseline monitoring within an existing wetland area along Reach R3. The well data was unrecoverable and therefore an additional groundwater monitoring well was installed along Reach R3 (preservation) after the first year of monitoring, in early January 2019. The wells were installed to document groundwater levels within the stream and wetland restoration for reference and comparison to the preservation areas, at the request of the NCIRT (DWR). No performance standards for wetland hydrology success was proposed in the Mitigation Plan and therefore wetland mitigation monitoring is not included for this project.
