Vernon Springs d Mitigation Bank. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region 4 Wetlands (EPA) has reviewed the prospectus. We note that we believe that the stream restoration and wetland restoration portions of the project appear to have merit. However, we are typically concerned with the potential risk of failure associated with wetlands creation, particularly creation of forested wetlands. Since the creation of wetlands on this site forms a majority of the proposed work, we are interested in receiving much more detail on the specific design and contingency plans. Our comments are listed below. There are editorial and spelling errors, too numerous to mention specifically, which need to be corrected. For example, under Soil Characteristics, the prospectus states that "this is the largest single tract of hydric soils in Surry County," but the site is located in Chatham County. 2. Information which we expect to be provided in a future proposal: a. Much more detail in the discussions of earthwork and plantings to be carried out, including contours, locations, water table depth or hydroperiod, and plant species (including details on the expected hydroperiod of the "vernal pool type system"); b. Location and detailed description of possible reference wetland sites and reference stream reaches, including soil, hydrology, and vegetation; C. Details concerning the proposed stream morphology, and the planting and construction techniques; IP En REC OCj 6 2000 tic WERANDS F,ESTp .T?1JM 2 d. Details concerning the vegetation monitoring of both the wetland creation and restoration areas, and the stream banks. e. Details concerning success criteria to be met, and contingency plans. 3. We note that the prospectus discusses the use of a reference reach to assist in the design of the stream restoration portion of this project. EPA strongly recommends that the sponsor also identify and utilize at least one reference wetland for comparison purposes during the planning, construction, and monitoring phases. As the MBRT is aware, reference sites are useful in determining success or progress in a mitigation area, especially daring atypical years (such as drought or high water years). The reference site(s) should be identified and described in detail in the mitigation plan. Further, the MBRT should be provided the opportunity to conduct a site visit of the reference site(s) and reference reach(es). 4. EPA recommends that the service area should be limited to the Rocky River hydrologic unit (03030003), consistent with the agreement made by the MBRT agencies. The use of the bank for projects outside of this 8-digit HUC unit may be made on a permit-by-permit basis. 5. The total number of credits available in the bank should be consistent with the agreements made by the MBRT agencies at our June 1, 2000 meeting. In addition, the MBI should include the language proposed by David Lekson on page 2 of his letter to the MBRT, dated June 27, 2000, concerning the debiting of credits for permits. 6. The credit release schedule should be revised to be consistent with the agreement made by the MBRT agencies at our April 27, 1999 meeting: Accomplishment MBI signed 151 year success 2nd year success 3rd year success 41h year success 51" year success MBRT final sign-off Percent credit release (cumulative) 15 10(25) 10(35) 10(45) 15(60) 15(75) 25(100) We note that it appears from the prospectus that the stream channel will be dug and planted, but that the water will not be rerouted from the ditch until one year later. The sponsor should be aware that the completion of construction and beginning of the five-year monitoring period (for credit release purposes) does not begin until completion of all work. 7. EPA recommends that a third party, such as a land conservancy organization, be identified as soon as possible to accept the final disposition of the property. 8. The sponsor should clarify why low berms are needed in the wetland restoration portions of the project. I understand why such structures may be necessary in the creation areas, but sites proposed for restoration should not need berms to retain water. The sponsor should demonstrate the necessity and feasibility of berms in different sections of the mitigation area. Any potential maintenance issues should be raised. 9. It is difficult to determine from the. Concept Plan (figure in color) which areas are proposed for wetland creation. The figure should be revised to clearly delineate the wetland creation areas. 10. Under "Phasing," the prospectus states that it is most efficient to do all construction at once, however, it appears from earlier statements that the work will be done in phases (for example, the stream will be restored and planted, but flow will not be returned for one year). Please clarify. 11. Under "Monitoring," the prospectus does not include monitoring of planted vegetation. It is imperative that vegetation monitoring be conducted, annually at a minimum. A vegetation monitoring plan should be submitted for review by the MBRT. Minimally, the plan should include representative sampling from each restoration/creation area. 12. Under "Monitoring," the prospectus should include a statement that the well data will be corroborated by observations of a hand-dug hole at each quarterly visit. 13. The mitigation plan and mitigation banking instrument must include appropriate, measurable success criteria for hydrology and vegetation. At a minimum, the wetland restoration and creation areas must meet the criteria set for jurisdictional wetlands in the Corps's 1987 wetland delineation manual. We appreciate the opportunity to participate in this review process. Please contact Kathy Matthews at (404) 562-9373 with any further information, comments, or questions. Sincere , William L.

Mount Vernon Springs Wetland Mitigation Bank Prospectus A. Administrative Provisions The Mount Vernon Springs Wetland Mitigation Bank is proposed as a Private-Commercial Bank, which will be operated as a Debit Bank and will offer wetland and stream impact credits. The property is currently under option for purchase by Mr. Louis Smith. The boundaries of the proposed mitigation site are on the east side of the overall tract. Mr. Smith will become owner of the property once the option is executed. Ownership will remain with Mr. Smith, his heirs, or other appropriate mitigation bat k s onser during the five-year monitoring and maintenance period at which time title or easem t may be transferred to an acceptable land conservancy organization. B. Technical Provisions v I s Location The Smith Tract is located generally along the east side of an unnamed tributary of Tick Creek (Index # 17043-13) which flows to the Rocky River in Chatham County, North Carolina. The current water quality classification of the stream is Class C waters. Rocky River is a tributary of the Deep River (USGS cataloging unit 03 30002), which flows to the Cape Fear River. The site is approximately 4.5 miles of Siler Ci , North Carolina. Land Use The site consists of approximately 30 acres of open agriculture land that is currently being used as pasture, supporting a cattle operation. The 30 acres is within a larger tract, which is also used as pasture. The site was very likely under row crops at one time after it was converted from woodland. Geomorphic Position The site occupies a broad flood plain and low fluvial terrace position of about 520' elevation. Soil parent material is fine-textured alluvium deposited by the tributary to Tick Creek. Elevation of the flood plain is abo t 3' - ' bove the base of the channel. The stream channel, which flows through the s' e fro northwest to southeast, has been channelized (straightened) over 3,450 of its length. Topography within the site is nearly y,?` , level. The floodplain surface falls approximately 10' over 3,000 feet of distance (0.3% slope). There are indications of old channel patterns and site disturbance from roads, drainage efforts, and erosion. This results in local relief variations of up to 2.0'. Soil Characteristics ?? ??A 'I, Soils on the site, although not mapped by USDA-MRCS as of this date, are most like the soil series described in the following inventory: Flood Plain Congaree Series Y111- Well-drained, fine-loamy, active, thermic Typic Udifluvents Chewacla Series Somewhat poorly drained, fine- loamy, mixed, active, thermic Fluvaquentic Dystrudepts Wehadkee Series Poorly drained, fine-loamy, mixed, active, non-acid, thermic, Fluvaquentic Endoaquepts Terrace State Series Well drained, fine-loamy, mixed, semiactive, thermic Typic Hapludults Altavista Series Moderately well drained fine-loamy, mixed, semi-active, thermic Aquic Hapludults 1 The Wehadkee S s is a hydric soil, comprises about 5.2 acres of the site, and represents the potential wetland restoration area. The dicated that, to their knowledge, this is the largest single tract of hydric soil in Su nry. The Chewacla Series is adjacent to the Wehadkee Series and represe po ential wetland creation area. The well- drained Congaree Series has limited potential for w land creation due to the greater depths to seasonal saturation. There is some eviden of past disturbance to the soils on site from grading, drainage, and erosion. Site Hydrology The watershed area above the point`where the channel enters the culvert at the road crossing on the south is about 2110 acres. Approximately 2/3 of the watershed is wooded. The majority of the open land in the watershed is adjacent to the site. Surface drainage on the site is toward the straightened channel, then southeast to Tick Creek. The straightened channel was very likely moved from a more natural sinuous route through the site to its present position along the west side of the site at the toe of the adjacent upland slope. Runoff from areas east, north and west of the site and precipitation provide input to groundwater on site. Ditches have been constructed across the site to facilitate the movement of ground and surface water to the straightened channel. The result has been to partially drain the Wehadkee soil area so that farming operations were feasible. The project stream consists of approximately 3,170 linear feet of channel located within the confines of a broad flat valley. This channel apparently was dredged and relocated along the western edge of the valley floor, and a small ditch is also located along the opposite side of the valley parallel to the eastern toe slope. Sporadically located along the valley are numerous interconnected drainage ditches that have effectively drained portions of the valley for livestock purposes. As a result of vegetation removal, impacts associated with the current and past grazing practices, and the corresponding increase of flow velocities associated with the channelization, bank erosion along the current stream reach is prominent. The current channel is not stable and is currently eroding and widening. As a result of the ongoing activities and past impacts, Pd form d;vercir-(r? sequences) is limited. The channel has been classified as G4 transitioning to an F4 strea annel type. The 4 denotes the substrate type, grave i is case. rr c anne dimensions average approximately 10 wide and 1 to 2 feet deep. .711L <? Vegetation The main portion of the site is in pasture (fescue grass with some invasive species). The channel banks are vegetated with trees and shrubs typical of bottomlands in the area (sycamore, ash, maple, alder, willow, etc.). The site is primarily bounded by open pasture. The northern portion is bounded by bottomland hardwood forest. Reestablishment of bottomland hardwood vegetation on the site would create a contiguous, vegetated riparian corridor from the upper reaches of the channel to the area south of the site. Habitat Existing site habitat is limited to; a) some minor cover areas along ditches for songbirds and small rodents, b) some open land feeding (e.g. mourning dove, deer), and c) the narrow, wooded riparian corridor along the site channel which varies from about 15' to 30' in width and provides limited corridor habitat for deer, raccoon, opossum, fox, and a variety of birds, amphibians, and reptiles. Except for the narrow riparian corridor, there is little diversity on site. Habitat patches do not exist within the site, thus reducing the "edge effect". There is little connectivity within the site or to adjacent areas. There is tremendous opportunity to create a large riparian corridor and a more diverse stream habitat as a result of the mitigation effort. By creating a stable, natural stream channel with aquatic enhancements and providing a contiguous corridor of bottomland hardwood vegetation both form and function of site habitat and function of off-site habitat is enhanced. The exterior edge of the wooded riparian corridor will be varied in form and vegetation type in order to create a pronounced "edge effect". The existing channel will be sequentially blocked, resulting in a number of vernal pools with old-growth vegetation on their perimeter. Proposed Mitigation Types The intent of the mitigation effort is to develop Piedmont swamp forest and bottomland hardwood forest along a restored stream channel. This would be done by restoring wetland hydrology to the hydric soil areas as well as developing wetland hydrology in the near-hydric areas. There is some opportunity to create oxbow type shrub/marsh bogs within the floodplain area of the restored stream. Wetland hydrology would be restored by blocking the present drainage system and re-grading the surface as needed to return it to near original topography. Wetland hydrology would be created by a combination of; 1) blocking and diverting surface and subsurface flow, 2) lowering stream channel gradient, and 3) grading f the soil surface in order to bring the seasonal saturation to within 1.0 feet of the surface. N C N? A--\ 0?'? There is tremendous potential to restore natural channel form and function to approximately 3700' of stream by creating a new channel through the flood plain portion of the site. The existing channelized portion of the stream will be abandoned by sequentially blocking with earth fill. The new channel will have greater length and sinuosity with a lower gradient and the cross-sectional area will replicate the nearby 7 reach. The proposed stream relocation and restoration project will shift the channel to the east and essentially centralizing the channel within the valley. The final relocation design and procedures will utilize Rosgen techniques and terminology. The proposed relocation will permit the space required to create a naturally meandering stream channel. Relocation will also allow for the creation of a riffle-pool sequence. Creating a meandering channel will conservatively increase total length of channel to approximately 3,700 feet, increasing total length by approximately 600 feet. Based on the 1-foot topographic map produced by Smith and Smith Surveyors, the horizontal fall from the origin of the project stream to the terminus point at Mt. Vernon Springs Road (SR 1134) is approximately 12 feet resulting in a valley slope of 0.004. The elevation drops approximately 1 foot every 350 feet. Based on the valley slope and other physical characteristics, the proposed restored stream reach will be an E4 or possibly a C4 type channel configuration as described in Applied River Morphology (Rosgen 1996). The sinuosity will range from 1.2 to 1.5 and the channel substrate will consist, based on preliminary field observations, of gravel and sand. Channel pattern, profile and channel form/dimensions will be drastically modified from the existing channel and will include a riffle/pool sequence. The relocated channel will result in the reduction of bank erosion and subsequent sediment transport during peak flows, increase overall holding capacity, and increase habitat diversity for aquatic species. In addition, because the channel invert will more than likely be higher than the current channel invert, the width of the flood-prone area and flooding durations should increase. Following the acceptance of the proposed conceptual wetland/stream restoration plan, a detailed analysis of the existing channel conditions in order to validate and determine the cross-sectional area of the existing bankfull channel, bankfull discharge, and longitudinal profile. A reference reach will also be located and surveyed in order to utilize as a reference standard for the final stream design. Based on the stream data collected at the reference reach, existing channel and the available local regional curve data that depicts bankfull dimensions versus drainage areas for the piedmont province, a detailed stream restoration plan will be developed. The final stream restoration plan will illustrate the bankfull cross-sectional area, channel dimensions, pattern, and profile proposed for construction on-site. This final plan will be developed and distributed to the appropriate agency representatives for comment and approval prior to initiation. The following table lists the proposed mitigation components: Restoration 5.2 acres Creation 22.9 acres Enhancement 0.0 acres Preservation 0.0 acres Stream Restoration 3700 linear feet Implementation Methods Grading and Structural L. , I ? ?O " ' _'rov_J) Restoration of wetland hydrology to the hydric soil areas of the site will be accomplished by reversing the effect of the existing drainage system. There are two outlets from the ditch system to the site channel. Soil material from the site will be used to fill these ditches in wetland restoration and creation areas in order to; 1) fill the ditch cross section and 2) restore natural grade to areas adjacent to the ditch. Creation of wetland hydrology will be accomplished by three methods. First will be the development of detention structures (low berms) at appropriate places down slope from the restoration and creation areas. Size and spacing of these structures will be determined during the design development phase. Each will consist of earth fill removed from the wetland creation portions of the site and will act to detain surface waters within the creation areas. Secondly, portions of the site will be graded so that the surface will be within 12 inches vertically of the seasonal saturation within the soil profiles on site. Finally, the restoration of the stream channel will create wetland hydrology within the areas adjacent to the channel (lower gradient and increased sinuosity reduce the drainage effects of the channel). The sequential filling of the existing channel will result in a chain of pools surrounded by the existing bank vegetation. This will create a vernal pool type system along an existing vegetative corridor. Certain areas (those upstream of the detention structures) within the creation and restoration areas will be ponded for portions of the year, adding to the diversity of the site. The seasonally ponded areas will not comprise more than 10% of the site area. Vegetation The majority of the area will be planted with seedlings of bottomland hardwood species. Areas around the seasonally ponded portions will be planted with shrub species (border) and herbaceous material or seeded with wetland seed mix. The species list below describes proposed typical species. The restored stream channel will be planted with appropriate channel bank species and allowed to stabilize for one growing season prior to initiating flow. Once structural development and grading is complete, planting will begin during the next appropriate planting season for each type of vegetation. Spring is preferred for the herbaceous material, with fall as a second preference. For the shrub and tree species, fall is preferred, with spring as an alternate. Woody tree species will be planted on an 8' by 8' spacing. Woody shrub species will be planted on a 6' by 6' spacing along with seeding of those areas to woody species. Herbaceous species will be planted on a 3' by 3' spacing and/or that area will be seeded with a wetland seed mix at 4 pounds per acre. The following is a table of proposed species from which plant material will be selected: Tree Species Liriodendron tuli ifera Yellow-Poplar Ulmus americana American Elm Celtis laevi ata Sugar-Berry Fraxinus erns lvanica Green Ash uercus hellos Willow Oak uercus ni ra Water Oak Betula ni ra River Birch Platanus occidentalis Sycamore Acer ne ndo Box-elder Po ulus hetero h la Swam Cottonwood Shrub Species Rhododendren maximum Rhododendron Ce halanthus occidentalis Buttonbush Alnus serrulata Smooth Alder Salix discolor Puss Willow Cornus amomum Silky Dogwood Asimina triloba PawPaw Salix sericea Silky Willow Herbaceous Species Carex s Sedges uncus s p. Rushes Sphagnum s p. Peat Moss Osmunda cinnamomea Cinnamon Fern Osmunda re alis Ro al Fern Other herbaceous species as available. Phasing It is most efficient to do all construction (structural and grading) in a single phase since all outlets and ditches need to be blocked to effectively restore the entire area. Also, the material needed for the filling of ditches and dam construction will be obtained from the graded areas in the creation portion. The entire site should be planted in one operation so that desired habitat type may be encouraged and invasive species are minimized.

Wetland Types (debit) The bank will supply credits for Piedmont Swamp Forest, Piedmont Bottomland Forest, and Piedmont Riverine impacts. Wetland and stream impacts are common in this service area relative to road building, large retail and industrial site development, and watershed/water supply development. In particular, the 3700 feet of proposed stream restoration will be in high demand for a number of road building efforts. Monitoring Initially, RDS monitoring wells will be installed throughout the contiguous restoration areas to monitor ground water levels. Data will be downloaded at the quarterly site visits. Any areas to be inundated, will be monitored with water depth indicators (graduated poles). Data from the RDS wells will be downloaded periodically and depths of saturation and inundation will be recorded during each quarterly visit.

Action ID # 200120436 & 200120437 and DWQ project # 01-0053. Dear Mr. Tugwell and Mr. Dorney, The purpose of this letter is to inform you of our client's intention to complete the Mt Vernon Springs Mitigation Plan submitted for your review and subsequent approval in two distinct phases. In order for Research Triangle Park to mitigate for proposed and permitted stream impacts associated with Louis Stephens Drive and the South Loop Road project, approximately 1,200 linear feet of priority I stream restoration will be performed within the M. Vernon Springs Mitigation site. As depicted on the attached figure, Phase I will initiate at station 35+60.19 and will continue to the project terminus. Phase I will be completed for the purpose of mitigating for 768 linear feet of stream impact as required by the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Action ID # 200120436 & 200120437, and the remainder of the Mitigation Plan will be completed following the approval of the Individual Permit - Action ID # 200120933 that is currently being reviewed by the EPA Phase H will encompass the remaining 3700 linear feet of stream restoration and 7.5 acres of wetland restoration. Although, current mitigation requirements are 768 linear feet of stream channel, in order to limit modification to the existing restoration design and layout related to future restoration activities, it has been determined that the minimum length to plausibly restore is approximately 1200 linear feet. The additional footage of stream will be utilized for the pending IP or will be used for compensatory mitigation for another project if acceptable to the USACE. The stream restoration design parameters and wetland restoration plan will not be altered from the originally submitted version, except for the temporary connection between the Phase I stream reach and the existing charnel. Following the completion of Phase II and subsequent connection to Phase I, the temporary connection will be abandoned and filled Wetland restoration work will not commence until the entire stream restoration (Phase I and II) has been completed in order to maintain accessibility of the site by heavy construction equipment. If you have any questions or concerns regarding this project, please contact me at your convenience at 919- 846-5900 (office), 919-291-1075, or e-mail me at Jelenevsky@SandEC.com.

Vernon Springs Mitigation Plan. DWQ Project No. 011206. Dear Mr. St. John, The proposed of this letter is to provide the additional information and supporting documentation as requested in the letter received from your office on November 7, 2001, dated November 1, 2001. I have attempted to answer or comment on the issues in order as presented in your letter. 1. In-Stream Structures and/or Blocks The revised stream restoration plan view has been enclosed, which denotes the approximate location of grade control and bank stabilization structures (i.e. rock vanes and root wads). 2. Site Plans/Maps Bed features have been identified on the revised plan view. The longitudinal?rofiles of the reference reach and the proposed design reach have also been enclosed. 3. Riparian Buffers and Planting Plan The riparian buffer will be planted with live transplants and the same bare-root species as indicated in the mitigation plan under Section VIII Planting Plan G`A minimum o f.5 feet o p etated riparian buffer will be established and monitored along the proposed stream restoration corridor. And as with the we an r component the target east is trees/acre.- 4. Morphological Measurements Currently, there are 13 individual reference channel reaches utilized to create the North Carolina Rural Piedmont Regional Curve. Of the 13 channels utilized to generate the Curve, 9 of the 13 channel reaches plot below the regression line. The purpose of the regional curve is as a technical guide not as an absolute. The channel types (i.e. Rosgen Classification) and site conditions (i.e. bed material, landscape position, runoff rates) differ for each of these reference reaches, resulting in slightly varied cross-sectional area when compared to drainage area. The Regional Curve exemplifies this fact because there are several examples of reference channels located within larger watersheds with smaller cross-sectional areas as compared to reference channels located within smaller watersheds (i.e. Dutchman Creek versus Mill Creek). Realizing this discrepancy, I utilized data gathered during the existing conditions survey and relic channel surveys to generate a cross-sectional area, which closely emulates current bankfull cross- Charlotte Office: Greensboro Office: Hickory Office: PMB 291; 3020-I Prosperity Church Road 3817-E Lawndale Drive 910 Boston Road Charlotte, NC 28269-7197 Greensboro, NC 27455 Taylorsville, NC 28681 Phone: (704) 720-9405 Phone: (336) 540-8234 Phone (828) 635-5820 Fax: (704) 720-9406 Fax: (336) 540-8235 Fax: (828) 635-5820 19 December 2001 , , Mo 0 Z. 3M sectional dimension. Subsequently, I utilized the reference reach data (Sal's Branch) primarily to design a stable pattern and longitudinal profile via dimensionless ratios. 5. Permanent Easement Research Triangle Foundation currently owns the property that the restoration work will be completed within. This property was purchase for the sole purpose of providing mitigation credits to off-set proposed impacts within the Research Triangle Park Deed re ctio s-hav6 been or eventually be placed on the property to protect it in perpetuity. 6. Sediment Transport Analysis 1 ',4 C The originally submitted morphological table contained the riffle pebble instead of the b sample, the table has been corrected and is attached and subsequently the value to the numbers used in the Entrainment Calculation. The slope value that is indicated within the morphological table is the average slope based on the cumulative existing channel survey. The slope utilized for the sediment transport analysis was the slope of the channel (water slope) of the bar sample area. The Entrainment Calculation indeed indicates that the channel is currently aggradmg, but it also indicates that the required Bankfull Mean Depth Required to move the d50 is 1.48 feet. The proposed design calls for an average riffle depth of approximately 1.60 feet as indicated on the Typical Riffle Cross-Section profile sheet located in the attachments section of the mitigation plan, therefore based on the entrainment calculation, the designed stream channel should be able to move the d50 and not aggrade over time. 7. Reference Reach To elaborate further on this issue ofutilizing Sal's Branch as a reference reach despite its drainage area, this reference reach was only utilized to aid in the design of the pattern, and longitudinal profile of the new channel via dimensionless ratios. The reference channel was not instrumental in the proposed cross-sectional area design; in fact the proposed cross-sectional area is very similar to existing channel cross-sectional area. Reference Reaches located within larger drainage areas particularly within developing counties and/or heavily manipulated landscapes as is typical with agricultural land, are extremely difficult to identify. I spent extensive time searching within the vicinity of the project stream and could not find any stable, unaltered stream reaches that would be considered reference reach quality. Channel conditions appeared to be inversely proportionate to the drainage area (bad to worse). Therefore, I believe that Sal's Branch, which is considered to be a stable reference reach, is an adequate source of data that can be utilized in the development of dimensionless ratios m which channel pattern and profile can be extrapolated and subsequently designed. 8. Physical Monitoring The bi-annual (1 s`, 3'a, and 56 years) stream restoration monitoring reports will consist of the information as recommended in the DWQ Stream Restoration/Mitigation Success Criteria. Therefore, the monitoring reports will include the stream's current Dimension, Pattern, Profile, and Pebble Count Data, along with photographs of each permanently established cross-sectional profiles and several of the in-stream structures. My only concern is the required 320 stems/acre after 5 years requirement because the U.S. Army Corps only requires 320 stems/acre after 3 years and 266 stems/acre after 5 years. This allows for a 10 percent mortality rate per year after year 3, which should be expected on a site that should start to mature, resulting in natural tree mortality, resulting in fewer stems per acre.

Vernon Springs Mitigation Site Plan. Dear Mr. Tugwell and Mr. Dorney, The Research Triangle Foundation proposes to restore approximately 4,700 linear feet of stream channel, 7.5 acres of wetlands and create approximately 7.0 acres of wetlands for the purpose of mitigating for proposed wetland and stream impacts within the Research Triangle Park, Durham and Wake Counties, North Carolina. The mitigation site is referred to as the Mt. Vernon Springs Mitigation Site. The restoration design, existing site conditions report and supporting exhibits and documents are enclosed. The proposed mitigation site will be utilized to -se d and stream impacts as described in the Individual Permit (IP), Action ID No 200120933, d issued Nationwide Permit #14, Action ID No. 200120436 & 200120437; DWQ Pro' o. 01-0053.' The IP is currently under agency and public review and has not been issued. -- - ` The Mt. Vernon Springs Mitigation Site currently contains approximately 3,300 linear feet of incised and channelized perennial stream. The mitigation site is presently supporting a cattle operation, which has exasperated the altered condition of the stream channel resulting in degraded water quality, riparian function, and wildlife habitat (aquatic and terrestrial). The proposed stream restoration design was developed utilizing existing channel conditions data, reference stream channel data, and the Piedmont Regional Curve. The restoration design is based on natural channel design principals and is considered to be a Priority I stream restoration. The proposed stream restoration design will result in 4,700 linear feet channel restoration, which will increase the length of the existing channel by approximately 1,400 linear feet. Approximately 7.5 acres of hydric soils were delineation within the mitigation site and approximately 7.0 acres of near-hydric soils were identified based on the soil borings performed during the site analysis. The area that encompasses these two soil units has been historically ditched, drained, deforested and converted to pasture dominated by fescue grass. The restoration of these areas will consist of backfilling the existing ditches to grade and replanting the site with bottomland hardwood plant species. These restoration and creation units will subsequently be monitored with groundwater devices in order to determine saturation durations and depths. All of the restoration components will be monitored for 5 years, and annual reports will be provided to the DWQ and the USACE for review and comment.

Thorpe, Ph.D., Acting Director Division of Water Quality Subject: Research Triangle Foundation DWQ Project No. 011206 Wake County Dear Mr. Jelenevsky: The Wetlands Unit staff reviewed the stream work plans for the subject project and determined that additional information is necessary to complete the technical review process. The required additional information is as follows: 1. In Stream Structures and/or Channel Blocks The approximate location of all proposed in stream structures and channel blocks must be provided on the site plans. 2. Site Plans/Maps Please locate the stream features such as riffles, pools, runs and glides on the site plan. Please provide longitudinal profiles for the reference reach and design reach that show the elevations of the thalweg, water surface, bankfull, and lowest bank height. Please provide of the reference reach and design reach. Please include the extent of the flood prone area on the example cross sections. 3. Riparian Buffers and Planting Plan The planting plan should include tree planting densities of the appropriate native species that will result in a survival rate of 320 trees per acre after five years. Please revise the site plans to include the extent and nature of the plantings and buffers as well as the extent of the easement or other means of permanent protection. 4. Morphological Measurements As indicated in the narrative, the design channel is predicted to have a cross section and discharge below that of the Rural Piedmant Regional Curve, whereas the cross section for the reference reach falls above that predicted by the Regional Curve. Please provide an explanantion as to why this may be the case. 5. Permanent Easement A permanent easement is required for stream mitigation projects. The easement must include permanent protection of the streams and buffers. A sample easement can be found at hftr):Hh2o.ehnr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/restore.htmi.

It is my understanding from this letter that the additional information you require concerns the status of the Lewis Smith mitigation site with respect to the MBRT. I have confirmed with Kevin Martin of S&EC that, because this is a dedicated site, there is no need for it to be reviewed by the MBRT. In addition, Mr. Martin informed me that he hand-delivered the final design plans to your office on September 28, 2001. I hope that this information addresses your concerns and that your office will be able to approve the 401 Certification.

Insufficient evidence is present in our files to conclude that your project must be built as planned in waters and/or wetlands in accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0506. Therefore, unless modifications of the proposal are made as described below, we will have to move toward denial of your 401 Certification as required by 15A NCAC 2H .0507(e) and will place this project on hold as incomplete until we receive this additional information, we are requesting (by copy of this letter) that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers place your project on administrative hold. Any documentation such as maps and narrative that you can supply to address alternative designs for your project may be helpful in our review of your 401 Certification. This project will require compensatory mitigation as described in 15A NCAC 2H .0506(h). Your mitigation proposal is insufficient because we have no details requiring the status of the Lewis Smith mitigation site with respect to the MBRT. Please respond within three weeks of the date of this letter by sending a copy of this information to me and one copy to Raleigh Regional Office. If we do not hear from you in three weeks, we will assume that you no longer want to pursue this project and we will consider the project as withdrawn.

(919) 876-8441 AUG 0 3 2001 RALEIGH REGULATORY FIELD OFFICE RE: Request for Individual Permit (404) and Associated 401 WQC for RTP-RTF South Parcel Lake project. Dear Mr. Tugwell: Initially, on April 1, 1991 Soil and Environmental Consultants, PA submitted a pre- discharge notification and request for Nationwide 26 permit to the Corps of Engineers relative to the construction of several impoundment structures at the above referenced project. That request was approved and subsequently reauthorized in 1995, all work authorized except one lake was completed prior to expiration of the permit. The purpose of this application is to request approval to build the final lake initially approved under Nationwide Permits. A detailed history of the project is described in the attached letter from Elizabeth Rooks of the Research Triangle Foundation of NC dated 11/18/99 and avoidance and justification are also described in that letter. Numerous office and site meetings with the Corps over the last 2 years have preceded this application. Elizabeth Rooks and I also met with John Dorney in his office to discuss the project prior to submittal. The current proposal as discussed was well received during those meetings. A description of lake construction and design is found in the attached memo from The Rose Group dated 7/9/01. The project will impact 6.23 acres of bottomland hardwood jurisdictional wetlands (Filling of 0.88 acres and Flooding of 5.35 acres). 429' of Corps important stream channel will be filled for the dam, and 6187' of important channel flooded (6616' total). While 645' of Corps unimportant stream channel will be filled and 2967' of unimportant channel flooded (3612'). (See attached impact map sheets 1,2,3, and 4). The client proposes to mitigate for unavoidable losses to wetlands by mitigating at a 1:1 ratio at the Lewis Smith mitigation site which has previously been reviewed by the NBRT and determined to be an acceptable site by the Corps. (See attached conceptual Charlotte Office: Greensboro Office: Hickory Office: PMB 291, 3020-I Prosperity Church Road 3817-E Lawndale Drive 910 Boston Road Charlotte, NC 28269-7197 Greensboro, NC 27455 Taylorsville, NC 28681 Phone: (704) 720-9405 Phone: (336) 540-8234 Phone (828) 635-5820 Fax: (704) 720-9406 Fax: (336) 540-8235 Fax: (828) 635-5820 site plan sheets 5,6,7, and 8). 6.23 acres of wetlands will be restored on the Smith site. In addition 13.23 acres of wetlands will be preserved at the RTP site. (See sheets 2 and 3). While DWQ does not require mitigation for impacts to streams for construction of ponds/lakes, the Corps has requested that we mitigate for important stream impacts at a .5:1 ratio at the Lewis Smith site. Therefore, 3308' of stream will be restored at the Smith site for this project. In addition the Corps has reviewed sites within RTP that would benefit by having permanent conservation easement placed on streams that would otherwise be subject to impact. These areas are approximately shown on the attached "proposed conservation easements" map. (Sheet 9). Stream length to be protected equals at least 13,250'. Sincerely, 6 _ Kevin C.

Tugwell Regulatory Project Manager U.S. Corps of Engineers Raleigh Regulatory Field Office 6508 Falls of the Neuse Road, Suite 120 Raleigh, NC 27615 Dear Mr. Tugwell: ion Elizabeth H. Rooks, Vice President, Planning & Development Since you were not involved with the Nationwide permits which were previously approved for construction of lakes in the southern portion of the Research Triangle Park, I am taking the liberty of describing below the detailed history of the Foundation's planning for the environmentally sensitive development of the southern portion of the Research Triangle Park. I have also attached for your information several of the detailed studies which were done in conjunction with that planning effort. In 1986 the Research Triangle Foundation began planning the development of the 2300 acres which comprise the southern portion of the Research Triangle Park. The Foundation contracted with the School of Design at N.C. State University to prepare a land plan for this area. Instrtictions to the School of Design were to prepare "the best plan possible" for this land - a plan which would accommodate research uses but which would be an environmentally responsible plan. The Foundation recognized that our land included floodplains, wetlands, steep slopes, wildlife (although mock environmental impact studies conducted by the School of Forestry at N.C. State University have not found any rare or endangered species) and was in the upper reaches of the watershed for Jordan Reservoir. The plan, prepared by the School of Design and currently under implementation by the Foundation, provides for a significant amount of land (approximately 900 acres) to be placed in permanent open space. For our purposes this open space .? RESEARCH TRIANGLE MW DEVELOPERS OF THE RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK Mr. Todd J. Tugwell Page 2 November 18,1999 is called "Natural Area Preserve". The Natural Area Preserve encompasses the floodplain and wetland areas associated with the streams which cross the property. In many areas the Natural Area Preserve includes additional wooded areas beyond the actual floodplains. Areas of steep slopes on the adjoining lots are designated as "Surface Cover Maintenance Areas" which will be retained in existing vegetation to reduce the potential detrimental effects of erosion and sedimentation during construction on these sites and to help infiltrate stormwater run-off from these sites after development. In addition, lot coverage (i.e., impervious surfaces) are limited to 30%. (Please note that the Foundation was planning for limitations on impervious surfaces long before the State regulations called for a five mile protected area around Jordan Reservoir.) Finally, the plan calls for construction of a series of lakes to provide a regional stormwater retention system for the southern portion of RTP. Studies by the School of Design indicated that such lakes would provide a pollution reduction of 70% or more over storm runoff which is not impounded. We feel that the reduction in potential pollution to Jordan Reservoir that these lakes would accomplish would benefit all communities who will ultimately use Jordan as a drinking reservoir and therefore, constructing these lakes represents an environmentally responsible approach to development of the southern portion of RTP. In 1990, in order to begin construction of its first lake the Foundation applied for 401 Water Quality Certification and for a Nationwide Wetlands Permit from the Corps of Engineers. In order to meet the criteria for the Nationwide Permit, the Foundation was required by the Corps to reduce the number of impounded lakes from five to three and to reduce the size of Lake W5 by almost one half. The Foundation was told that it could replace the two impounded lakes which were deleted with two lakes which could be constructed with weirs in the stream channel and the lakebed excavated behind the weir, leaving the existing pockets of wetlands around the edges of the lake. These revisions allowed the Foundation to disturb only 2.3 acres of wetlands for lakes which would provide stormwater retention for a 2300 acre development. However, as you know, the Foundation is not a fast-paced developer. We have been developing the Research Triangle Park over the last forty years. Because we are not a fast-paced developer, we have been unable to complete the construction of all five lakes within the time horizon of our Nationwide Permit and Mr. Todd J. Tugwell Page 3 November 18,1999 a subsequent renewal of that permit. In fact, over the past ten years, we have completed only two of the lakes (Lakes W1 and W3). In 1996 we hired an engineer to undertake the design of lakes W2 and W5. After studying the configurations approved by the Corps in our original Nationwide permit, our engineer expressed significant concern that Lake W2, which had been approved as a weir and excavated lake, would not function very well and would be constantly in jeopardy of silting up. In addition, he recommended that the dam for lake W5 be moved to the east of the planned north-south arterial road (now known as Louis Stephens Drive). Since the lake would have preceded construction of Louis Stephens Drive, future construction of Louis Stephens Drive would have been very difficult. In August of 1997 we met with the Corps to discuss these potential changes to Lake W5 and the Corps also advised me that the Foundation needed to obtain a wetlands permit for other anticipated wetlands disturbances such as future roads and construction on sites where there might be other wetlands. It was my understanding from these discussions that the Foundation needed to apply for a full 404 permit to cover the entire southern portion and to include the additional wetland impacts necessitated by moving the lake and including any other anticipated wetlands impacts. Therefore, the Foundation undertook a full wetlands delineation of the southern portion of RTP and has tried to anticipate future road and driveway crossings and any other wetland impacts. We have been working on this delineation over the last two years. In doing so, we have also attempted to minimize and avoid impacts to the greatest extent practical. In making this current 404 permit application, we have deleted Lake W4 which was originally approved as a weir and excavated lake and would have impacted approximately 3500 linear feet of important channel. Lake W2, which was originally approved as a weir and excavated lake, has been combined with Lake W5 as a single impounded Lake. The combined lake will disturb approximately the same amount of important stream channel as would have been affected by the two individual lakes. The large area of significant bottomland hardwoods which is adjacent to Lake W5 is being protected by a dike and drainage system to assure that it will continue to function in a manner similar to its present situation. Lake W5 is the westernmost lake in our proposed system. The streams in the southern portion of RTP flow from east to west; therefore this lake offers the last opportunity to filter stormwater run-off before it leaves RTP property. We sincerely believe that construction of this lake is in the long-term Mr. Todd J. Tugwell Page 4 November 18,1999 best interest of the public to ensure reduction of potential pollution to Jordan Reservoir. Alternatives such as construction of many smaller detention basins would require excavation of basins, dams and access roads in several areas, resulting in destruction of natural soil conditions at those sites and alteration of existing hydrology in the upper drainageways throughout the 2300 acre parcel. Furthermore, maintenance of one large dam/impoundment is more efficient than maintenance of many smaller areas. The larger facility would be less subject to damage from high flows than multiple smaller basins which would presumably be designed for storms of lower peak run-off. In consideration for relief from the requirement to undertake stream restoration for the important stream channels which would be impacted under this 404 permit, the Foundation would offer to place conservation easements along the remaining stream channels in RTP where it is still within our ability to do so. A map showing streams on which buffers could be provided is attached. These buffers would be a minimum of fifty feet in width but in some cases would be 100 feet in width on each side of the stream channel. While many of these streams are within areas which we intend to be permanent open space, i.e., Natural Area Preserve, there are still activities permitted within these areas that could have an adverse impact on the streams unless such conservation easements were in place. The types of potentially detrimental activities include logging, recreational facilities, utility lines etc. We are also offering to add buffers to streams in the northern portion of RTP, where possible. The northern portion of the Park was developed under different regulations and does not have the natural area preserve and surface cover maintenance area protections which were included in the southern portion. So the addition of conservation easements in this portion of the Park will provide a significantly higher level of protection than currently exists. The first question that my Board of Directors asked me when I was explaining the situation to them was, "Is placing conservation easements on the streams the right thing to do? If so then do it." I think this attitude represents the way in which the Research Triangle Foundation has approached the development of its property. Thank you for your assistance with our 404 permit application and please feel free to call me or Kevin Martin if you need any additional information. Sincerely, Eli?zth H.

Date: 09-July-01 To: Kevin Ma From: Rick Moore O'A RE: Responses to S&EC/COE Comments in Memorandum dated June 22, 2001 The following is a list of responses to the comments received through S&EC from the Corps of Engineers (copy attached) for the Lake W-5 permitting: 1- Cross section and plan view of dam is attached. 2- Cross section and plan view of the berm that will protect the wetlands is attached 3- During construction, various heavy construction equipment such as earth moving pans, excavators, sheepsfoot rollers, bull dozers and dump trucks will be used. Estimated hours of operation will be from 7:00 am until 7:00 pm 4- No minimum stream flow release will be provided unless requested by one of the reviewing agencies. However, the minimum flows are usually based on the 7Q10 flow for a given stream. Kit Creek is in the Triassic basin and is estimated to have a 7Q10 of zero. 5- The road crossing in the upper portion of the lake is currently under construction and should be completed prior to beginning construction of the remainder of the lake. Upon receiving approval from the Corps of Engineers, FEMA, State Dam Safety and erosion control officials, clearing of the lake bed will be initiated. Once the clearing is complete, the berm protecting the wetlands will be constructed followed by the dam construction. An erosion control plan will be obtained prior to initiating any land clearing activity. 6- The borrow source has not been determined. However, they will not come from any area which will impact wetlands. 7- The creek flows very near the proposed toe of slope in several places. Because it is desirable to achieve a 3:1 slope on the lake edges, and to keep proposed slopes from encroaching on adjacent properties, the creek will need to be realigned in some areas. This will be done simply by excavating a channel in a new location and filling the channel in its existing location. All of the areas of creek realignment are within the limits of the proposed lake and therefore will be inundated upon completion of construction. MEMORANDUM Mr. Kevin Martin Page 2 July 9, 2001 8- Some of the lake bed will be dredged to satisfy the depth requirements for a stormwater detention pond. Approximately 20 acres will be excavated from 1' to 4' to achieve a minimum depth of 4'. No wetlands outside of the limits of the proposed in'tpoundment will be dredged during this excavation. Approximately 5 acres of wetlands within the proposed limits of the impoundment will be dredged during this excavation. 9- Stream rerouting will be accomplished by excavation of new stream alignment and filling in the existing stream bed as necessary within the limits of the proposed impoundment. 10- A FEMA CLOMR has been requested and is under the review process. Detailed design of the dam will not proceed until such time as the necessary wetland permitting is approved. Once detailed design is completed, we will apply for the dam safety permit. 11- We are unaware of any stream sampling requirements that may be imposed. 12- The lake has a maximum depth of 8 feet just upstream from the dam (this does not include the depth of the channel). After completion of excavation, the average depth of the lake will be is approximately 5 feet. 13- No temporary stream crossings outside of the limits of the proposed impoundment are necessary. 2 13 Au M 3 r Jau Y P 8 13A /u» ?r OAIVY COOMT 4 ar-? «v» WAP '-? 10A a / I °" A 29 28 .maw. rrw w.nr a. ?,.. r SHEET 4 or_ ww sum"" TAT 33 i 31 M/» ZD za ZC 7r r,?7? w E gl? 24 w.» 23 wr»?

PA SHEET 9 OF 13 i Proposed Stream Buffer Easement Notes: 1250' between the two lakes - Easement will stop short of the spillway of the existing lake such that there is sufficient room in case the dam needs to be widened in the future for a road connection for Cisco between their sites on Kit Creek Road and site 26/27. There is a Wake County sewer line in this vicinity but until the stream is surveyed, we won't know how far it is from the stream. 2. 4000' to the west of Louis Stephens Drive Extension. We need to reserve the option of one crossing which will be either at the north end or the south end - not determined which yet. 3. 1750' west of Davis Drive, north of South Loop Road. There is a sewer line in this area but until it is surveyed we don't know exactly how far from the stream bank. We may want to put a greenway trail in this area in the future but it is flat enough that we could stay out of the 50' buffer. We would need to reserve the ability to do one temporary construction drive crossing. 4. 1750' west of Davis Drive, south of South Loop Road. There is a sewer line in this area but until it is surveyed we don't know exactly how far it is from the stream bank. Ditto on the greenway trail. We would nee to reserve the ability to do one temporary construction drive crossing. 5. 1250' between Louis Stephens Drive Extension and NC 55 (exclusive of the RR right of way). There is a Wake County sewer line that runs in this area, but I think it is more than 50' from the stream, except where the stream goes under the RR. 6. 3000' east of site 33. No restrictions known. 7. 2400' to the west and north of site 5. No restriction known. By my calculation this is 15,400 If. However, field survey will likely yield a higher number since the 15,400 if does not account for stream meanders. Note: Based on a field review with the corps it was determined that on-site restoration was not a preferred option. It was decided preservation of existing unprotected riparian buffers was preferable to any on-site restoration or enhancement because of existing site conditions.

Soil & Environmental Consultants, PA 11010 Raven Ridge Road • Raleigh, North Carolina 27614 • Phone: (919) 846-5900 - Fax: (919) 846-9467 www.SandEC.com U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Department of the Army 6508 Falls of the Neuse Road Raleigh, NC 27615 Attn: Mr. Todd Tugwell Tel. (919) 876-8441 RE: Request for Individual Permit (404) and Associated 401 WQC for RTP-RTF South Parcel Lake project. Dear Mr. Tugwell: Initially, on April 1, 1991 Soil and Environmental Consultants, PA submitted a pre- discharge notification and request for Nationwide 26 permit to the Corps of Engineers relative to the construction of several impoundment structures at the above referenced project. That request was approved and subsequently reauthorized in 1995, all work authorized except one lake was completed prior to expiration of the permit. The purpose of this application is to request approval to build the final lake initially approved under Nationwide Permits. A detailed history of the project is described in the attached letter from Elizabeth Rooks of the Research Triangle Foundation of NC dated 11/18/99 and avoidance and justification are also described in that letter. Numerous office and site meetings with the Corps over the last 2 years have preceded this application. Elizabeth Rooks and I also met with John Dorney in his office to discuss the project prior to submittal. The current proposal as discussed was well received during those meetings. A description of lake construction and design is found in the attached memo from The Rose Group dated 7/9/01. The project will impact 6.23 acres of bottomland hardwood jurisdictional wetlands (Filling of 0.88 acres and Flooding of 5.35 acres). 429' of Corps important stream channel will be filled for the dam, and 6187' of important channel flooded (6616' total). While 645' of Corps unimportant stream channel will be filled and 2967' of unimportant channel flooded (3612'). (See attached impact map sheets 1,2,3, and 4). The client proposes to mitigate for unavoidable losses to wetlands by mitigating at a 1:1 ratio at the Lewis Smith mitigation site which has previously been reviewed by the NBRT and determined to be an acceptable site by the Corps. (See attached conceptual Charlotte Office: Greensboro Office: Hickory Office: PMB 291, 3020-I Prosperity Church Road 3817-E Lawndale Drive 910 Boston Road Charlotte, NC 28269-7197 Greensboro, NC 27455 Taylorsville, NC 28681 Phone: (704) 720-9405 Phone: (336) 540-8234 Phone (828) 635-5820 Fax: (704) 720-9406 Fax: (336) 540-8235 Fax: (828) 635-5820 site plan sheets 5,6,7, and 8). 6.23 acres of wetlands will be restored on the Smith site. In addition 13.23 acres of wetlands will be preserved at the RTP site. (See sheets 2 and 3). While DWQ does not require mitigation for impacts to streams for construction of ponds/lakes, the Corps has requested that we mitigate for important stream impacts at a .5:1 ratio at the Lewis Smith site. Therefore, 3308' of stream will be restored at the Smith site for this project. In addition the Corps has reviewed sites within RTP that would benefit by having permanent conservation easement placed on streams that would otherwise be subject to impact. These areas are approximately shown on the attached "proposed conservation easements" map. (Sheet 9). Stream length to be protected equals at least 13,250'. Sincerely, Kevin C.

Tugwell Regulatory Project Manager U.S. Corps of Engineers Raleigh Regulatory Field Office 6508 Falls of the Neuse Road, Suite 120 Raleigh, NC 27615 Dear Mr. Tugwell: /off Elizabeth H. Rooks, Vice President, Planning & Development Since you were not involved with the Nationwide permits which were previously approved for construction of lakes in the southern portion of the Research Triangle Park, I am taking the liberty of describing below the detailed history of the Foundations planning for the environmentally sensitive development of the southern portion of the Research Triangle Park. I have also attached for your information several of the detailed studies which were done in conjunction with that planning effort. In 1986 the Research Triangle Foundation began planning the development of the 2300 acres which comprise the southern portion of the Research Triangle Park. The Foundation contracted with the School of Design at N.C. State University to prepare a land plan for this area. Instructions to the School of Design were to prepare "the best plan possible" for this land - a plan which would accommodate research uses but which would be an environmentally responsible plan. The Foundation recognized that our land included floodplains, wetlands, steep slopes, wildlife (although mock environmental impact studies conducted by the School of Forestry at N.C. State University have not found any rare or endangered species) and was in the upper reaches of the watershed for Jordan Reservoir. The plan, prepared by the School of Design and currently under implementation by the Foundation, provides for a significant amount of land (approximately 900 acres) to be placed in permanent open space. For our purposes this open space .? RESL4kACH TRIANGLE rAM DEVELOPERS OF THE RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK Mr. Todd J. Tugwell Page 2 November 18,1999 is called "Natural Area Preserve". The Natural Area Preserve encompasses the floodplain and wetland areas associated with the streams which cross the property. In many areas the Natural Area Preserve includes additional wooded areas beyond the actual floodplains. Areas of steep slopes on the adjoining lots are designated as "Surface Cover Maintenance Areas" which will be retained in existing vegetation to reduce the potential detrimental effects of erosion and sedimentation during construction on these sites and to help infiltrate stormwater run-off from these sites after development. In addition, lot coverage (i.e., impervious surfaces) are limited to 30%. (Please note that the Foundation was planning for limitations on impervious surfaces long before the State regulations called for a five mile protected area around Jordan Reservoir.) Finally, the plan calls for construction of a series of lakes to provide a regional stormwater retention system for the southern portion of RTP. Studies by the School of Design indicated that such lakes would provide a pollution reduction of 70% or more over storm runoff which is not impounded. We feel that the reduction in potential pollution to Jordan Reservoir that these lakes would accomplish would benefit all communities who will ultimately use Jordan as a drinking reservoir and therefore, constructing these lakes represents an environmentally responsible approach to development of the southern portion of RTP. In 1990, in order to begin construction of its first lake the Foundation applied for 401 Water Quality Certification and for a Nationwide Wetlands Permit from the Corps of Engineers. In order to meet the criteria for the Nationwide Permit, the Foundation was required by the Corps to reduce the number of impounded lakes from five to three and to reduce the size of Lake W5 by almost one half. The Foundation was told that it could replace the two impounded lakes which were deleted with two lakes which could be constructed with weirs in the stream channel and the lakebed excavated behind the weir, leaving the existing pockets of wetlands around the edges of the lake. These revisions allowed the Foundation to disturb only 2.3 acres of wetlands for lakes which would provide stormwater retention for a 2300 acre development. However, as you know, the Foundation is not a fast-paced developer. We have been developing the Research Triangle Park over the last forty years. Because we are not a fast-paced developer, we have been unable to complete the construction of all five lakes within the time horizon of our Nationwide Permit and Mr. Todd J. Tugwell Page 3 November 18,1999 a subsequent renewal of that permit. In fact, over the past ten years, we have completed only two of the lakes (Lakes W1 and W3). In 1996 we hired an engineer to undertake the design of lakes W2 and W5. After studying the configurations approved by the Corps in our original Nationwide permit, our engineer expressed significant concern that Lake W2, which had been approved as a weir and excavated lake, would not function very well and would be constantly in jeopardy of silting up. In addition, he recommended that the dam for lake W5 be moved to the east of the planned north-south arterial road (now known as Louis Stephens Drive). Since the lake would have preceded construction of Louis Stephens Drive, future construction of Louis Stephens Drive would have been very difficult. In August of 1997 we met with the Corps to discuss these potential changes to Lake W5 and the Corps also advised me that the Foundation needed to obtain a wetlands permit for other anticipated wetlands disturbances such as future roads and construction on sites where there might be other wetlands. It was my understanding from these discussions that the Foundation needed to apply for a full 404 permit to cover the entire southern portion and to include the additional wetland impacts necessitated by moving the lake and including any other anticipated wetlands impacts. Therefore, the Foundation undertook a full wetlands delineation of the southern portion of RTP and has tried to anticipate future road and driveway crossings and any other wetland impacts. We have been working on this delineation over the last two years. In doing so, we have also attempted to minimize and avoid impacts to the greatest extent practical. In making this current 404 permit application, we have deleted Lake W4 which was originally approved as a weir and excavated lake and would have impacted approximately 3500 linear feet of important channel. Lake W2, which was originally approved as a weir and excavated lake, has been combined with Lake W5 as a single impounded Lake. The combined lake will disturb approximately the same amount of important stream channel as would have been affected by the two individual lakes. The large area of significant bottomland hardwoods which is adjacent to Lake W5 is being protected by a dike and drainage system to assure that it will continue to function in a manner similar to its present situation. Lake W5 is the westernmost lake in our proposed system. The streams in the southern portion of RTP flow from east to west; therefore this lake offers the last opportunity to filter stormwater run-off before it leaves RTP property. We sincerely believe that construction of this lake is in the long-term Mr. Todd J. Tugwell Page 4 November 18,1999 best interest of the public to ensure reduction of potential pollution to Jordan Reservoir. Alternatives such as construction of many smaller detention basins would require excavation of basins, dams and access roads in several areas, resulting in destruction of natural soil conditions at those sites and alteration of existing hydrology in the upper drainageways throughout the 2300 acre parcel. Furthermore, maintenance of one large dam/impoundment is more efficient than maintenance of many smaller areas. The larger facility would be less subject to damage from high flows than multiple smaller basins which would presumably be designed for storms of lower peak run-off. In consideration for relief from the requirement to undertake stream restoration for the important stream channels which would be impacted under this 404 permit, the Foundation would offer to place conservation easements along the remaining stream channels in RTP where it is still within our ability to do so. A map showing streams on which buffers could be provided is attached. These buffers would be a minimum of fifty feet in width but in some cases would be 100 feet in width on each side of the stream channel. While many of these streams are within areas which we intend to be permanent open space, i.e., Natural Area Preserve, there are still activities permitted within these areas that could have an adverse impact on the streams unless such conservation easements were in place. The types of potentially detrimental activities include logging, recreational facilities, utility lines etc. We are also offering to add buffers to streams in the northern portion of RTP, where possible. The northern portion of the Park was developed under different regulations and does not have the natural area preserve and surface cover maintenance area protections which were included in the southern portion. So the addition of conservation easements in this portion of the Park will provide a significantly higher level of protection than currently exists. The first question that my Board of Directors asked me when I was explaining the situation to them was, "Is placing conservation easements on the streams the right thing to do? If so then do it." I think this attitude represents the way in which the Research Triangle Foundation has approached the development of its property. Thank you for your assistance with our 404 permit application and please feel free to call me or Kevin Martin if you need any additional information. Sincerely, Eli?Zth H.

Please note that you are required to submit your request for a 401 Water Quality Certification under separate cover to the Division of Water Quality. Also please note that beginning January 1, 1999, the N.C. General Assembly passed legislation requiring payment of a fee for all applications. This fee amounts to $200 for projects with less than an acre of wetland impact and less than 150 linear feet of impacted stream. For projects with an acre or more wetland impact or 150 feet or more of impacted stream, a fee of $475 is required. In order for DWQ to review and process your request, you must send a check for the appropriate amount made payable to the N.C. Division of Water Quality attached to the applications. Also, seven copies of all application materials sent to the Corps are required for our review. Please call Rob Ridings at 919-733-1786 or visit our web site at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands if you have any questions.

If diffuse flow is not a reasonable goal for a given site (esp. steep slope sites), what "other BMPs" will be acceptable? We should have some idea more firmly stated (perhaps not stated in the design specs, but something regulators can point people toward if need be) of what is a reasonable alternative if conditions do not permit level spreader use. 2. We are seeing level spreaders placed at the toe of steep slopes. How should we handle this? 3. I think we would all prefer grass lined swales as bypass channels, but in forested applications, the lack of sunlight will not allow this. We are going to have to have a LOT of rip rap channels. Even in areas where the grass could eventually die due to the canopy, this will be an issue. 64 4, How do we construct a cha nel in the buffer and minimize the impact? 5,. How do we "protect" the point of entry to the stream from the bypass channel? 6. In a stream system, where is the best place to discharge? Into a pool? riffle? Bend? This is something that should be looked at when reviewing plans, making sure we don't just discharge anywhere. 7. What do we do if the level spreader discharge begins to erode in the buffer or erodes the stream bank? What type of permitting will be required for people to go back into the buffer and fix problems? what amount of work will require such a permit? 8. Bypass structures can be built to minimize sediment accumulation. It is important to analyze this when reviewing plans. 9. In the Coastal Plan, we generally have roadside ditches discharging to level spreaders. However, DOT guidelines prohibit backing water up in these ditches. 44 DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY WILMINGTON DISTRICT, CORPS OF ENGINEERS P.O.

The proposed bank is located north of SR 1134, adjacent to an unnamed tributary of Tick Creek, 4.5 miles south of Siler City, in Chatham County, North Carolina. The Mitigation Bank Review Team was assembled and met to review the proposal on November 28, 2000. Based upon our telephone conversation of August 28, 2001, it is my understanding that the owner of the property now intends to make the entire site available to a third party for use as compensatory mitigation for a future permit request. Based upon this, your client no longer wishes to pursue bank approval and is withdrawing his request. Accordingly, your mitigation bank is hereby retired from further consideration. Should you have any questions regarding your project, or the federal mitigation banking procedures, please contact me at the Raleigh Field Office, Regulatory Division, telephone (919) 876-8441, extension 22.

Vernon Springs Stream and Wetland Mitigation Plan. Dear Mr. Jelenevsky: Thank you for providing a copy of the Mt. Vernon Springs Stream and Wetland Mitigation Plan. This plan outlines the activities that will be implemented to compensate for impacts associated with a Research Triangle Park Foundation project (DWQ No. 01-1206). Comments on this mitigation plan have been received from the NC Wetlands Restoration Program and are included in this letter. Overall the plan is very well written and addresses both stream restoration and wetland restoration. Considerable details are provided to support the plans for stream restoration, but additional details are needed for the wetland restoration/creation component of the plan. The plan does not discuss the amount of wetland impacts at the Research Triangle Park and whether the planned wetland creation component (approximately 7 acres) of the mitigation plan will compensate for some of these impacts. Clearly a strong case can be made for successful wetland restoration on the approximately 7.5 acres of hydric soils. However, there is .insufficient evidence that "systematically back filling the inter-field ditches to match the adjacent flood plain elevation ...the 7.0 near-hydric soil area will be restored as a bottomland hardwood/swamp forest wetland." If planned wetland impacts exceed 7.5 acres, then we need further assurances that the 7 acres of wetland creation will be successful. Finding and obtaining data from a_reference_site will assist-in determining success. -Data: from the monitoring wellsshould have been included in the plan, and would help support the concept that stream restoration and ditch-filling will truly restore wetland hydrology. The-tree and herbaceous species to be established are all good. One ancillary comment is that we normally discourage the establishment of nitrogen fixing species (e.g. alder) along - Nutrient Sensitive Waters. ;However this does not apply to this plan since Tick Creek is classified as Class C.

"As-Built" Mt. Vernon Springs Stream and Wetland Mitigation Plan-Phase I. Dear Mr. Tugwell, The purpose of this letter is to provide you with the "as built" report of the Phase I restoration work completed at the Mt. Vernon Springs Mitigation Site located in Chatham County, North Carolina. This restoration work provides compensatory mitigation credit for the stream channel impacts resulting from the completion of the Louis Stephens Drive project located in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina. Due to permit delays related to the Individual Permit, Action ID No. 200120933, the originally designed mitigation project was divided into two phases so that the current impacts related to the Louis Stephen Drive could be off-set. Based on the originally submitted design and construction sequencing over 4,500 linear feet of stream restoration, 7.5 acres of wetland restoration and approximately 7 acres of wetland creation would have been constructed simultaneously. Since only the Nationwide 14 had been issued, the project was modified to meet the current mitigation requirements of 768 linear feet of stream restoration. As a result of the mitigation requirements and site and design constraints, 918 linear feet of stream channel was restored and 160 feet of stream channel was enhanced and approximately 0.3 acres of wetland-vernal pool habitat was created. The temporary connection between the restored channel and the original channel (station 0+00 to 1+69) was not included in the restoration total, since following the completion of Phase 11 this section will be backfilled. Approximately 150 linear feet of stream restoration and 160 linear feet of stream enhancement and 0.3 acres of wetland creation credit remain following the implementation of Phase I. The project construction initiated on 11 February 2002 and was completed including all plantings and seeding by March 1, 2002. Bottomland hardwood bare-root seedlings were planted adjacent to the restored stream on approximate 10-foot centers. The planted riparian zone was, at a minimum, 50 feet wide along the eastern edge of the channel. The majority of the planted riparian zone along the western edge of the channel exceeds a 50-foot width and extends to the property line demarcated by a barbed wire fence. Species planted include river birch (Betula nigra), American sycamore (Platanus occidentalis), swamp chestnut oak (Quercus michauxii), and green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica). Following the completion of the stream restoration work the channel was lined with C177 coir mattine and stapled in Dlace. A seed mix was aDDlied and live stakes were installed.

The latter two species were seeded to provide temporary cover and stabilize the graded flood plain and stream channel. Live stakes consisted primarily of black willow (Salix nigra), which was predominately harvested on the site, and silky dogwood (Corpus amomum). Transplants that were located along the original channel consisted of green ash, tag alder, and American sycamore. Transplants varied in size from 2-6-inches in diameter and 4 to 25 feet tall. A near bankfull event, approximately 6 inches below bankfull, was experienced the week of March 17`h, 2002. A digital photograph has been enclosed, which was taken approximately 12 hours after the storm event. Following the storm event, in-stream grade control structures and the stream channel were inspected. Based on the field observations the restored stream reach remained intact and stable. Deposition was evident on the inside of meander bends and on the upper sections of the boulder cross-vanes. This indicates that the channel is performing as it should in a natural un-constructed state (reference reach condition). As time elapses and additional bankfull events occur the constructed channel should become narrower as sediment is deposited along the banks and vegetation begins to emerge and propagate. Vegetation within the bankfull channel will increase the roughness coefficient, thereby slowing down storm water flows allowing sediment to drop out of suspension and deposit or build up the banks. Although the width should become narrower, channel depth and slope should remain relatively constant over time. Modifications to the plan were also completed during the construction phase because of physical properties of the site or unforeseen constraints. Two of the boulder cross-vanes were not installed at station 9+63 or 11+73. These areas contained bedrock, which is an excellent and permanent form of grade control; therefore cross-vanes were not installed. Station 9+63 has also been selected as a monitoring cross-section; so long term stability can be evaluated. The "As Built" report consists of this narrative, the longitudinal profile, representative cross- section profiles, constructed stream channel alignment, vernal pool creation location map and photographs. The longitudinal profile data will be used as a baseline to determine the long term channel stability when compared to future monitoring reports. Monitoring cross-sections have been selected and are permanently identified in the field with iron pins. These cross-sections consist of two nested pairs made up of a riffle and pool segment. Each cross-section has been located utilizing a Trimble GPS unit. The coordinates of the cross-sections are provided on the plan view of the "As Built" figure enclosed. The constructed channel alignment (plan view) was also located with a Trimble GPS and that information was laid on top of the proposed alignment as depicted on Sheet 1 for comparison purposes. The vernal pool areas created utilizing the original channel have also been located and the areas calculated in AutoCAD. Total area created is approximately 0.30-acre. Photographs will also be taken annually at each monitored cross- section. Please note that this acreage was not required to off-set any compensatory mitigation requirements. Stream channel and vegetative monitoring reports will be provided to the USACE every other year starting a year after implementation. Monitoring reports will be completed for years 1, 3, and 5. Information will include the longitudinal profile, cross-sectional data, vegetation sampling data, photographs, and remediation plans if required. Surveys will be completed from July- September. Following the submittal of the monitoring reports to the appropriate agency representatives, the recipients of the report will be contacted for the purpose of discussing the monitoring data, required success criteria and whether or not the site is functioning as expected. If the site is not functioning as expected a site visit will be scheduled with the review agencies so that a remediation plan can be created and implemented. The remediation plans, if required, will directly reflect the requested alterations suggested by the regulatory agencies.

"As-Built" Mt. Vernon Springs Stream and Wetland Mitigation Plan-Phase I. Dear Mr. Tugwell, The purpose of this letter is to provide you with the "as built" report of the Phase I restoration work completed at the Mt. Vernon Springs Mitigation Site located in Chatham County, North Carolina. This restoration work provides compensatory mitigation credit for the stream channel impacts resulting from the completion of the Louis Stephens Drive project located in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina. Due to permit delays related to the Individual Permit, Action ID No. 200120933, the originally designed mitigation project was divided into two phases so that the current impacts related to the Louis Stephen Drive could be off-set. Based on the originally submitted design and construction sequencing over 4,500 linear feet of stream restoration, 7.5 acres of wetland restoration and approximately 7 acres of wetland creation would have been constructed simultaneously. Since only the Nationwide 14 had been issued, the project was modified to meet the current mitigation requirements of 768 linear feet of stream restoration. As a result of the mitigation requirements and site and design constraints, 918 linear feet of stream channel was restored and 160 feet of stream channel was enhanced and approximately 0.3 acres of wetland-vernal pool habitat was created. The temporary connection between the restored channel and the original channel (station 0+00 to 1+69) was not included in the restoration total, since following the completion of Phase II this section will be backfilled. Approximately 150 linear feet of stream restoration and 160 linear feet of stream enhancement and 0.3 acres of wetland creation credit remain following the implementation of Phase 1. The project construction initiated on 11 February 2002 and was completed including all plantings and seeding by March 1, 2002. Bottomland hardwood bare-root seedlings were planted adjacent to the restored stream on approximate 10-foot centers. The planted riparian zone was, at a minimum, 50 feet wide along the eastern edge of the channel. The majority of the planted riparian zone along the western edge of the channel exceeds a 50-foot width and extends to the property line demarcated by a barbed wire fence. Species planted include river birch (Betula nigra), American sycamore (Platanus occidentalis), swamp chestnut oak (Quercus michauxii), and green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica). Following the completion of the stream restoration work the channel was lined with CF7 coir matting and stapled in Dlace. A seed mix was aDDlied and live stakes were installed. Seed mix Charlotte Office: Greensboro Office: Hickory Office: PMB 291, 3020-I Prosperity Church Road 3817-E Lawndale Drive 910 Boston Road Charlotte, NC 28269-7197 Greensboro, NC 27455 Taylorsville, NC 28681 Phone: (704) 720-9405 Phone: (336) 540-8234 Phone (828) 635-5820 Fax: (704) 720-9406 Fax: (336) 540-8235 Fax: (828) 635-5820 consisted of switch grass (Panicum virgatum), deer tongue (Panicum clandestinum), rye grain, and fescue. The latter two species were seeded to provide temporary cover and stabilize the graded flood plain and stream channel. Live stakes consisted primarily of black willow (Salix nigra), which was predominately harvested on the site, and silky dogwood (Cornus amomum). Transplants that were located along the original channel consisted of green ash, tag alder, and American sycamore. Transplants varied in size from 2-6-inches in diameter and 4 to 25 feet tall. A near bankfull event, approximately 6 inches below bankfull, was experienced the week of March 17`h, 2002. A digital photograph has been enclosed, which was taken approximately 12 hours after the storm event. Following the storm event, in-stream grade control structures and the stream channel were inspected. Based on the field observations the restored stream reach remained intact and stable. Deposition was evident on the inside of meander bends and on the upper sections of the boulder cross-vanes. This indicates that the channel is performing as it should in a natural un-constructed state (reference reach condition). As time elapses and additional bankfull events occur the constructed channel should become narrower as sediment is deposited along the banks and vegetation begins to emerge and propagate. Vegetation within the bankfull channel will increase the roughness coefficient, thereby slowing down storm water flows allowing sediment to drop out of suspension and deposit or build up the banks. Although the width should become narrower, channel depth and slope should remain relatively constant over time. Modifications to the plan were also completed during the construction phase because of physical properties of the site or unforeseen constraints. Two of the boulder cross-vanes were not installed at station 9+63 or 11+73. These areas contained bedrock, which is an excellent and permanent form of grade control; therefore cross-vanes were not installed. Station 9+63 has also been selected as a monitoring cross-section; so long term stability can be evaluated. The "As Built" report consists of this narrative, the longitudinal profile, representative cross- section profiles, constructed stream channel alignment, vernal pool creation location map and photographs. The longitudinal profile data will be used as a baseline to determine the long term channel stability when compared to future monitoring reports. Monitoring cross-sections have been selected and are permanently identified in the field with iron pins. These cross-sections consist of two nested pairs made up of a riffle and pool segment. Each cross-section has been located utilizing a Trimble GPS unit. The coordinates of the cross-sections are provided on the plan view of the "As Built" figure enclosed. The constructed channel alignment (plan view) was also located with a Trimble GPS and that information was laid on top of the proposed alignment as depicted on Sheet 1 for comparison purposes. The vernal pool areas created utilizing the original channel have also been located and the areas calculated in AutoCAD. Total area created is approximately 0.30-acre. Photographs will also be taken annually at each monitored cross- section. Please note that this acreage was not required to off-set any compensatory mitigation requirements. Stream channel and vegetative monitoring reports will be provided to the USACE every other year starting a year after implementation. Monitoring reports will be completed for years 1, 3, and S. Information will include the longitudinal profile, cross-sectional data, vegetation sampling data, photographs, and remediation plans if required. Surveys will be completed from July- September. Following the submittal of the monitoring reports to the appropriate agency representatives, the recipients of the report will be contacted for the purpose of discussing the monitoring data, required success criteria and whether or not the site is functioning as expected. If the site is not functioning as expected a site visit will be scheduled with the review agencies so that a remediation plan can be created and implemented. The remediation plans, if required, will directly reflect the requested alterations suggested by the regulatory agencies.

Year 1 Monitoring Findings Report: Mt. Vernon Springs Mitigation Site-Phase I. Dear Mr. Tugwell, Attached to this letter is the Year 1 Monitoring report for the Mt. Vernon Springs-Phase I Mitigation Site located in Chatham County, North Carolina. This restoration work provides.compensatory mitigation credit for the stream channel impacts resulting from the completion of the Louis Stephens Drive project located in Research Tri angle Park, North Carolina. Due to permit delays related to the Individual Permit process, Action ID No. 200120933, the originally designed mitigation project was divided into two phases so that the current impacts relative to the construction of Louis Stephen Drive (Action ID Numbers 200120436 & 200120437) could be off-set. Therefore, only a portion of the'originally proposed mitigation project was constructed although it exceeded the permit mitigation requirements and consisted solely of stream restoration. Mitigation requirements included the restoration of 768 linear feet of stream channel. Total stream length restored consisted of 1,132 linear feet, resulting in a surplus of 364 linear feet of stream channel, which will be applied to future RTF approved and permitted impacts. LThe monitoring report includes the findings report, revised copy of the as-built plan view izing total station technology), permanently monitored cross-section plots, itudinalprofile, pebble count, and photographic documentation. As discussed in the findings report, no departures in bed form and pattern were observed relative to the as-built survey despite the numerous bankfull events that have occurred this past winter/spr .season,.._A1soespite he drought of summer 2002, nanarand b-a°ntc vegetation is doing remarkable well with an abundance of volunteer species dominating the Phase I area.

Vernon Springs-Phase I Year 1 Monitoring Report Introduction ' Soil & Environmental Consultants, PA (S&EC) has completed the year 1 monitoring of the Mt. Vernon Springs Mitigation Site, located approximately 4 miles south of Siler City and 2 miles west of Highway 421, Chatham County, North Carolina. Monitoring data was collected on June ' 26 and 27, 2003. The Action ID Numbers for this project are 200120436 & 200120437. To review, the project construction initiated on 11 February 2002 and was completed by March 1, 2002, so the stream has been on line, for 17 months. The stream has experienced approximately ' 6 or more bankfull events, the majority occurring winter/spring 2003, since construction implementation was complete. ' Data collected during the field reconnaissance included the survey of the entire length of longitudinal channel profile, four permanently established channel cross-sections, pebble count data, and photographs. Overall channel conditions (bed and bank) and in-channel structures, ' which included boulder cross-vanes and root wads, were inspected during the channel survey to insure proper function and stability. Extreme detail was employed to replicate previously collected data compiled during the as-built survey. Permanently established vegetation plots will ' be setup following the completion of Phase II since the monitoring schedule for Phase I will be altered to match that of Phase II. ' Year 1 geomorphic data collected was plotted in color along with the as-built for comparison purposes. Some adjustment was required of the as-built longitudinal data because the stream has modestly increased in length as the thalweg has adjusted and become equalized. 1 Methodology ' The as-built was completed utilizing a laser level, rod, laser sensor, 300-foot tape, and a Trimble® GPS unit. Although this aforementioned equipment is acceptable considering the ' application, to increase accuracy and efficiency, S&EC is now utilizing total station technology, which identifies and records the northing, easting, and elevation (x, y, z coordinates) of each survey point taken in the field. As a result there are some minor changes to the original as-built. ' The longitudinal profile was survey by starting immediately above the origination point of the stream restoration and continued to the project terminus depicted by the culverts that feed the t stream under Mt. Vernon Springs Road. The thalweg was surveyed inclusive of all observed transitional areas including riffles, runs, pools and glides and installed rock cross-vanes. Cross- vanes were utilized as permanent bench marks when the two surveys were compared and ' horizontal (length) adjustments to the as-built profile were made based on the relative locations if each cross-vane. The channel length between the as-built and year 1 survey only differed by approximately 50 feet. t Cross-section pins established during the as-built were located using the as-built plan sheet and a metal detector. Once the pins were located a 100-foot tape was stretch between them for orientation purposes and to insure an accurate reproduction of the original cross-section profile. Pebble count data was taken from each cross-section in a random pattern to avoid recording individual substrate more than once. Data was collected in the immediate vicinity of the cross- section and completed within the specific bed feature (i.e. riffle or pool) that the cross-section profile was taken. Channel Morphology & Channel Stability Based on visual observations of the stream channel and in-channel structures completed during the collection of the stream data followed by the comparative analysis of the year 1 and as-built data sets, the restored channel reach is apparently relatively stable and exhibited very little departure (vertical or horizontal) from the as-built conditions. All of the cross-vanes and root wads were functioning properly and there was no evidence of erosion, headcutting, or structure piping. In fact, as predicted in the as built report, the channel is becoming predominately narrower because sediment is being deposited along the bank and in some cases obscuring the arms of several of the boulder cross-vanes. This is the direct result of increased roughness associated with the propagation of vegetation within the bankfull channel. Vegetation ' Planted zones relative to the stream restoration consisted of the riparian zone, which initiates at the top of the bank and continues perpendicular to the stream with a minimum width of 50-feet and the bankfull channel area initiating at the base flow elevation continuing to the top of bank. 0 The planted riparian zone relative to Phase I, although not required, was extended to the property lines east and west of the channel alignment excluding Phase II construction access and earthwork areas. Areas where soil disturbance occurred and the original vegetation was removed (i.e. fescue) as a result of the construction procedures, planted bare root seedlings did fairly well despite the drought of 2002. Bare root seedling did poorly in fescue dominated zones. As a result of this obvious discrepancy, fescue dominated areas located adjacent to the stream alignment were treated with Oust® and replanted this past spring. Oust was utilized to eradicate the fescue and is active for 2 years. This extended period of time should promote the establishment of the replanted specimens by reducing competition. The bankfull channel area was live staked with black willow (Salix nigra) and silky dogwood (Cornus amomum) and seeded with switch grass (Panicum virgatum), deer tongue (Panicum clandestinum), and rye grain. Despite the drought experienced during the summer of 2002, stream bank vegetation is doing very well. As a result of the numerous bankfull events that occurred this past winter and spring a large influx of volunteers have colonized within the bankfull channel consisting primarily of rushes (Juncus spp.), Sedges (Carex spp.), spike rushes (Eleocharis spp.), black willow, and sycamore (Platanus occidentalis). Percent cover was estimated to be from 80-100 percent along the majority of the stream banks. Some bare spots located along the channel bank at station 7+50 and 9+94 were observed and isolated to one side of the channel. These two areas cumulatively consist of less then 40 linear feet. These bare spots are apparently attributed to the rocky soil conditions observed and low fertility. These areas will be lined with matting (CF7), limed, fertilized, and re-staked during the implementation of Phase II scheduled for summer/fall 2003. Only one out of the approximate 20 transplants perished following the completion of the project. Future Monitoring I As a direct result of the timely process associated with the Individual Permit approval, the proposed mitigation project was divided into phases as approved by the USACE and the NC DWQ. This was done in order to meet issued permit requirements associated with the I construction of Louis Stephens Drive at RTP. An approved modification of the originally submitted mitigation design consisted of constructing a shorter segment of the proposed stream restoration denoted as Phase I. The stream channel monitoring schedule, as outlined in the approved mitigation plan, is to be completed every other year for 5 consecutive starting one year after the completion of construction. Therefore, stream monitoring will be completed the 1St, 3ra, and 5`" year. As a result of the project phasing the monitoring schedule would have been skewed and data would have been collected on opposing years relative to Phase I and II. However, base on verbal agreements with the USACE personnel, the two will be merged following the completion of Phase II. Therefore, the continuance of the Phase I stream channel monitoring will not resume until year 3 monitoring is schedule for Phase II. As a result Phase I will be surveyed three times within a six year period consisting of year 1, year 4, and year 6 data. Vegetation monitoring associated with the riparian and wetland restoration/creation for both phases will initiate following the completion of Phase II and will be completed annually for 5 consecutive years. Compiled data, photographs and a findings report will be issued biannually along with the stream channel data. r Benthic Monitoring will initiate one year after Phase II is complete and will continue annually r' until year 3 as verbally agreed upon with NC DWQ staff. Ground water hydrology within the wetland restoration/creation areas will be monitored daily for 5 consecutive years utilizing automated data loggers. Data loggers will be downloaded and maintained at leas ou times during the growing season and once during the winter months.

Vernon Springs Stream and Wetland Mitigation Project-Phase II, Chatham County, Siler City, North Carolina. As-Built Report and Record Drawings. INETLA NDS / 401 GROUP S&EC Project No. 6382. Dear Mr. Tugwell and Mr. Dorney, SEP 0 8 2004 WATER ,ly SECTION I am providing you with a copy of the as-built report and drawings that represe mitigation work completed at the Mt. Vernon Springs Mitigation Site, Siler City, North Carolina on behalf of the Research Triangle Foundation (RTF). The purpose and need of the project is to provide mitigation credits for stream and wetland impacts that will result from the future expansion of Research Triangle Park. Phase II of the restoration work satisfies the mitigation requirements as stipulated in the Individual Permit identified by the USACE as Action ID: 200120933 and DWQ Project Number 01-1206. Phase I of the project was utilized to satisfy compensatory mitigation requirements as stipulated by general nationwide permits identified as Action ID: 200120436 & 200120437 and 200420081. Excess credits resulting from the completed restoration work (Phase I & II), as preliminarily approved by the USACE and the DWQ, are to be banked and will potentially be utilized to fulfill future compensatory mitigation associated with future permitted impacts completed within Research Triangle Park. As a result of the completion of Phase II of the mitigation plan, the result of implementing the entire project has resulted in the restoration of 4,985 linear feet of stream channel, 7.52 acres of wetland (7.52 credits), and the creation of 7.01 acres of wetland (2.34 credits at a 3:1 ratio), and 0.35 acres of vernal pool habitat (0.11 credits at a 3:1 ratio). It is my professional opinion that once the ground water table has had the opportunity to equilibrate within the Phase II footprint, additional wetland creation acreage will be discernable. Subsequently these areas will be delineated and surveyed during the year 1 monitoring process resulting in an adjustment in the acreage of wetland creation. Please review the provided documentation and respond to me by letter regarding your acceptance. .3 If you have any questions regarding the information provided, I can be contact at 919- 846-5900 (office), 919-280-0603 or Jelenevsky_@SandEC.com (e-mail).

Vernon Springs-Phase II As-Built Report ' Introduction Soil & Environmental Consultants, PA (S&EC) is providing herein the as-built survey of the ' completion of Phase II of the Mt. Vernon Springs Stream and Wetland Mitigation Plan, located approximately 4 miles south of Siler City and 2 miles west of Highway 421, Chatham County, North Carolina. As-built data was collected on 24, 25, 26, 27, and 28 May 2004. The Action ID ' Numbers for this project are 200120436 & 200120437 (NW 14), 200120933 (1P), and 200420081(NW 14). To review, the project construction initiated on 30 March 2004 and was completed by 3 May 2004. Phase II added an additional 3,853 linear feet of stream channel to the previously completed Phase I segment consisting of approximately 1,132 linear feet. Total restored stream length on site is 4,985 linear feet. Phase II experienced a near bankfull event about one week after completion. Water level within the channel was within 6 to 10 inches of ' the top of bank. Survey data collected included the entire longitudinal channel profile, ten (10) permanently ' established channel cross-sections, pebble count data, and photographs. Overall channel conditions (bed and bank) and in-channel structures, which included boulder cross-vanes and root wads, were inspected during the channel survey to insure proper function and stability. ' Permanently established vegetation plots will be setup simultaneously with the installation of the ground water monitoring devises scheduled for fall of 2004. ' Methodology The as-built was completed utilizing total station technology, a segmented and calibrated rod, and prism. This method of collection identifies and records the northing, easting, and elevation ' (x, y, z coordinates) of each survey point taken in the field. The longitudinal profile was surveyed by starting immediately above the origination point of the stream restoration and continued to the confluence of Phase I and II. The thalweg was surveyed inclusive of all observed transitional areas including riffles, runs, pools and glides and installed rock cross-vanes. Cross-vanes will be utilized in future monitoring surveys as permanent in- stream bench marks, thereby allowing horizontal (length adjustment to be made based on the relative location of each cross-vane. ' Permanent cross-section pins were established utilizing a section of %2-inch rebar approximately 2 to 3 foot in length driven vertically into the ground and cast within an anchor consisting of a section of 4-inch PVC pipe anchored with concrete. The purpose of the concrete is to prevent potential damage, removal, or vandalism ensuring horizontal and vertical control required for future survey replication. A total of five (5) nested pairs of cross-sections were established or ten (10) individual cross-sections. Each nested pair is made up of a riffle and pool cross-section. ' Once the concrete was allowed to setup, a 100-foot tape was stretch between the pins for orientation purposes and the cross-section was surveyed. 1 ' Pebble count data was taken from nested pair#6 in a random pattern to avoid recordation of the same particle more than once. Data was collected in the immediate vicinity of the cross-section ' and completed within the bed feature (i.e. riffle or pool) that characterized that specific cross- section profile. ' Vegetation Planted zones relative to the stream restoration consisted of the riparian zone, which initiates at the top of the bank and continues perpendicular to the stream with a minimum width of 50-feet ' and the bankfull channel area initiating at the base flow elevation continuing to the top of bank. The planted riparian zone relative to Phase II, although not required, will be extended to the ' property lines east and west of the channel alignment and includes the wetland restoration and creation areas. Bare root seedlings were not planted immediately after Phase II construction t because it was an inappropriate time of year and day time temperatures exceeded normal averages. Bare root stock will be planted in the fall of 2004. Wetland restoration areas located to the east of the restored creek and located within the Phase II footprint were planted following ' the completion of Phase I in 2002. Wetland restoration areas located west of the new channel alignment will be planted this fall. ' The bankfull channel area was live staked with black willow (Salix nigra) and silky dogwood (Corpus amomum) and elderberry (Sambucus canadensis). Only 25% of the channel was live staked due to above normal temperatures experience in May. Areas that were disturbed as a ' result of the construction activities were seeded with switch grass (Panicum virgatum), deer tongue (Panicum clandestinum), and brown-top millet. ' Mitigation Credits After the completion of the as-built survey of the restoration project, total accrued mitigation credits were tabulated. Field data was gathered utilizing standardized survey practices and the ' data was subsequently quantified using AutoCADD. Quantified below is the cumulative (Phase I and II) length of stream channel restored onsite. Mitigation Type Total Stream Restoration - Phase I 1,132 linear feet Stream Restoration - Phase II 3,853 linear feet Total Stream Length 4 985 linear feet Wetland Restoration 1:1 replacement value 7.52 acres 7.52 credits Wetland Creation * (3:1 replacement value 7.01 acres * 2.34 credits Vernal Pool Creation 3:1 replacement value 0.35 acres 0.11 credits Total Wetland Acreage 14.88 acres 9.97 credits ' * Following the completion of the year 1 monitoring, S&EC will delineate the actual acreage of created wetland onsite and subsequently adjust the quantity. We believe that total wetland creation acreage will exceed the original design estimate. r_ Mitigation Allocation ' To date, three permits have been issued to the Research Triangle Foundation, which have debited against available mitigation credits. The permits are identified by the following action ID numbers: Action ID Number Compensatory Stream Compensatory Wetland Mitigation Mitigation 200120436 & 200120437 768 linear feet N/A 200420081 259 linear feet N/A 2001120933 3,308 linear feet 6.23 Total Compensatory 4,335 linear feet 6.23 (6.23 credits) Mitigation Required Cumulative Compensatory 4,985 linear feet 7.52 (7.52 credits) acres Mitigation Provided by the Mt. of wetland restoration and Vernon Springs Mitigation Site 7.36 acres of creation 2.45 credits Remaining Available 650 linear feet 3.74 wetland credits Mitigation Credits ' Future Monitoring As a direct result of the timely process associated with the Individual Permit approval, the proposed mitigation project was divided into phases as approved by the USACE and the NC DWQ. This was done in order to meet issued permit requirements associated with the construction of Louis Stephens Drive at RTP. An approved modification of the originally submitted mitigation design consisted of constructing a shorter segment of the proposed stream ' restoration denoted as Phase I. The stream channel monitoring schedule, as outlined in the approved mitigation plan, is to be ' completed every other year for 5 consecutive starting one year after the completion of construction. Therefore, stream monitoring will be completed the 1St, 3`d, and 5d' year. As a result of the project phasing the monitoring schedule would have been skewed and data would ' have been collected on opposing years relative to Phase I and Il. However, base on verbal agreements with the USACE personnel, the two will be merged in the spring of 2005. Therefore, the continuance of the Phase I stream channel monitoring will resume next year. ' Vegetation monitoring associated with the riparian and wetland restoration/creation for both phases will initiate in spring of 2005 and will be completed annually but reported every other ' year. Compiled data, photographs and a findings report will be issued biannually along with the stream channel data. I Benthic Monitoring will initiate spring of 2005 and will continue annually until year 3 as verbally agreed upon with NC DWQ staff. 1 1 1 Ground water hydrology within the wetland restoration/creation areas will be monitored daily for 5 consecutive years utilizing automated data loggers. Data loggers will be downloaded and ' maintained at least four times during the growing season and once during the winter months. I I d d? U?

Raleigh, NC 27614 i Michael F. Easley, Governor William G. Ross Jr., Secretary North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources Alan W. Klimek, P.E. Director Division of Water Quality Re: Mount Vernon Springs Stream and Wetland Restoration, Chatham County, NC (DWQ # 01- 1206) Dear Mr. Smith: DWQ has received and reviewed the, "Year One Monitoring Report for Mount Vernon Springs Stream and Wetland Restoration, Chatham County, North Carolina, February 2006." The following comments arose upon review of the document: 1. The hydrologic data for all 8 monitoring wells appear to meet the success criteria for year one. 2. The vegetation monitoring should be conducted during the growing season (approximately March 16 to October 16 according to the report). This will allow easier vegetation identification and more accurate assessment of the health of the vegetation. 3. Tree densities for the vegetation in plots 4 and 8 are below the five year success criteria of 260 trees per acre. Plot 2 is marginally successful relative to the 320 tree per acre success criteria established for year 3. Although the average tree density for the entire site is 698, plots 2, 4, and 8 may represent problem areas on the site and corrective actions may need to be taken in these areas (e.g. additional plantings, limiting competition, etc). 4. Please provide separate density estimates of volunteer species within each plot for all future reports. The photograph for plot 4 appears to have several woody stems in the plot, yet the survey only shows two trees in the plot. 5. Future reports should include a map showing the location of the macroinvertebrate sampling sites and the location of the reference site. It is difficult to determine the extent of invertebrate recovery without knowledge of the reference site. 6. Future reports should include an estimate of the size of the catchment and an estimate of stream width at baseflow. In the report it is unclear how much stream catchment is upstream of each of the macroinvertebrate sites. Biocriteria were applied to the macroinvertebrate community, however streams with catchments <3 sq miles should not be rated (at least not without correction factors) because the streams will be rated artificially low. It is possible that the streams are closer to recovery than currently portrayed.

This report includes the following: Project History Mitigation Components Hydrologic Monitoring Vegetation Monitoring Stream Monitoring Benthic Monitoring Appendix A - Groundwater Data Appendix B - Site Photos Appendix C - Stream Survey Data Appendix D - Benthic Survey Data 1.2 Project History The Mount Vernon Springs Mitigation Site, was restored in order to offset impacts created by the Research Triangle Park Foundation for stream and wetland impacts associated with the expansion of Research Triangle Park. The 32-acre site is located approximately 4 miles south of Siler City and approximately 2 miles west of Highway 421 in Chatham County, NC (USGS HUC 03030003, Subbasin 306012). The wetland mitigation effort involves approximately 7.5 acres of restoration of prior converted wetlands, the creation of approximately 7.0 acres of wetlands, and 0.35 acres of vernal pools. Stream mitigation includes the restoration of approximately 4,985 linear feet. Phase I, consisting of approximately 1,132 linear feet of stream and adjacent buffers and wetlands was constructed during the period February 11, 2002, to March 1, 2002. Phase II, consisting of approximately 3,853 linear feet of stream restoration and 14.88 acres of wetland restoration, wetland creation, and vernal pool creation, was constructed March 30, 2004 to May 3, 2004. All construction and planting was performed by North State Environmental, Inc., of Winston-Salem, NC. 1.3 Mitigation Components ' After the completion of the as-built survey of the restoration project, total accrued mitigation credits were tabulated. Field data was gathered utilizing standardized survey practices and the data was subsequently quantified using AutoCAD. Quantified below is the cumulative (Phase I and II) length of stream channel restored onsite. Mitigation Type Total Stream Restoration - Phase I 1,132 linear feet Stream Restoration - Phase II 3,853 linear feet Total Stream Length 4,985 linear feet Wetland Restoration (1:1 replacement value 7.52 acres (7.52 credits) Wetland Creation * (3:1 replacement value) 7.01 acres * 2.34 credits) Vernal Pool Creation (3:1 replacement value 0.35 acres (0.11 credits) Total Wetland Acreage 14.88 acres 9.97 credits * As part of the Year Two monitoring effort, S&EC will delineate the actual acreage of created wetland on ' the site and subsequently adjust the quantity. Preliminary indications are that total wetland creation acreage will exceed the original design estimate. ' To date, three U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) permits have been issued to the Research Triangle Foundation, which have debited against available mitigation credits. The permits are identified by the following action ID numbers: Action ID Number Compensatory Stream Compensatory Wetland Mitigation Mitiga on 200120436 & 200120437 768 linear feet N/A 200420081 259 linear feet N/A 2001120933 3,308 linear feet 6.23 Total Compensatory 4,335 linear feet 6.23 (6.23 credits) Mitigation Required Cumulative Compensatory 4,985 linear feet 7.52 (7.52 credits) acres Mitigation Provided by the Mt. of wetland restoration and Vernon Springs Mitigation Site 7.35 acres of creation 2.45 credits Remaining Available 650 linear feet 3.74 wetland credits Mitigation Credits 2.0 MONITORING A Year One Monitoring report was previously submitted for Phase I (July 2003), however, upon the completion of construction of Phase II, it was agreed to combine the ' two phases and begin full site monitoring in 2005 (Year One). This report serves as the 2 Year One Monitoring report for both Phases. Wetland monitoring will occur annually, with stream surveys occurring in Years One, Three, and Five. Benthic Monitoring ' initiated in the spring of 2005 and will continue annually until Year Three as verbally agreed upon with NC DWQ staff. Reports will be submitted biannually, with the Year Three report due in early 2008. ' This section includes information concerning; 1) hydrologic monitoring, 2) vegetative monitoring, 3) stream monitoring, 4) benthic monitoring, and 5) evaluation of site ' success. These data are provided in order to establish a baseline against which future monitoring data may be compared. ' 2.1 Hydrologic Monitoring Hydrologic monitoring data for the 2005 monitoring year indicates that the site is ' successfully experiencing conditions consistent with local jurisdictional wetlands. Data collected for the monitoring period are presented in tabular and graphical format in Appendix A. A total of eight (8) Inifinities U.S.A., groundwater monitoring gauges numbered MV-1 through MV-8 were installed on the site. An Infinities U.S.A., rain gauge was also installed onsite. The location of these gauges are shown on Sheet 1. ' Data collected on this and other sites over the past several years indicates that the most likely times of the year in which soil saturation occurs in wetlands is during the winter ' and early spring months. Rainfall patterns during the preceding winter and early spring months are the most critical of the year relative to successful wetland hydrology for that year. Typically, once the growing season enters late spring through summer, shallow ' groundwater levels begin to fall and also fluctuate rapidly due to high evapotranspiration rates and summer rainfall patterns. Fall is normally the driest portion of the year. Rainfall patterns for the 2005 monitoring year indicate a drier-than-normal year for the ' site. Upon review of the recorded on site rainfall data it was found that a total of 26.67 inches of rainfall fell on the site in 2005. Of this depth, 19.8 inches fell within the growing season (approximately March 16 through October 16). ' Success criteria for wetland hydrology include the saturation of the upper 12 inches of soil for at least 16 consecutive days of the growing season. All eight (8) gauges have ' made hydrology with consecutive days of saturation ranging from 30 to 73 consecutive days. ' The site has continued to perform successfully during the 2005 (Year One) monitoring season with respect to the hydrologic status of the mitigation areas. ' 2.2 Vegetation Monitoring Success criteria for vegetation is based on the average number of live stems per acre across the site as described in the Mitigation Plan. As described in the Mitigation Plan, a mean density of 260 stems per acre is required at the end of the five-year monitoring period. Eight (8) sample plots are located across the site adjacent to the groundwater monitoring ' gauges. For simplification of records the sample plots are numbered the same as the monitoring gauges (MVS-1 through MVS-8). Each plot is a square, 10 meters (32.8 feet) on each side (100 square meters, or approximately 1075 square feet). The locations of ' sample vegetation plots are identified on Sheet 1. Photos of each vegetation plot are included as Appendix B. ' Vegetation counts were performed on November 2, 2005, and December 11, 2005. A table indicating the total number of live stems in each sample plot is included below: Plot MVS MVS MVS MVS MVS MVS MVS MVS Total Numbers 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Total woody 30 8 19 2 17 47 9 6 138 Stems ' The average number of stems per sample plot is 17.25 stems. The sample plot median is 13.0 stems. A review of the sample plots (averaging 17.25 stems per plot) reveals a current (2005 - Year One) site survival density of approximately 698 stems per acre. ' Species diversity is described in the following table: Plots Species 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Year 1 Totals Swamp Chestnut Oak (Quercus michauxii) 3 1 4 Green Ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica) 25 4 7 2 17 45 2 102 Unknown Oak (Quercus spp.) 2 1 1 4 8 River Birch (Betula nigra) 3 5 8 Elderberry (Sambucus canadensis) 1 2 3 American Sycamore (Platanus occidentalis) 3 3 1 1 8 Black Willow (Salix nigra) 5 5 Year 1 Totals 30 8 19 2 17 47 9 6 138 Live Stem Density 1214 324 769 81 688 1902 364 243 Average Live Stem Density 69 8 4 There are seven (7) different woody species represented within the eight (8) sample plots. ' Stem count will most likely vary in future years. In summary, the vegetative component of the mitigation effort is on track to meet the established success criteria of 320 live stems per acre by Year Three. 2.3 Stream Monitoring Soil & Environmental Consultants, PA (S&EC) completed the Year One monitoring of ' the Mount Vernon Springs Mitigation Site on November 16 and 17, 2005. Fourteen (14) cross-sections were established onsite and are shown on Sheet 1. Data from the Year One survey is included as Appendix C. The as-built section of the Phase I longitudinal ' profile was not included for comparison against the Year One survey of this section (Station 39+00 to Station 47+80). Due to a difference in survey methods, the overlay of the profiles in this section of stream displays a departure. This departure was not ' observed during our field visits. Because of the visual assessment in this stream and the lack of departure in the sections that were surveyed using the same methods, S&EC is confident that this discrepancy does not illustrate actual stream instability. ' Based on visual observation of the entire restored stream channel and in-channel ' structures, followed by the comparative analysis of the As-built survey data set, the restored channels are stable and exhibit very little departure (vertical or horizontal) from the as-built conditions. There are a series of beaver dams which are impounding the ' channel, however, at this time, they do not appear to have detrimentally impacted the channel. Per the Mitigation Plan, success criteria has been met in that the stream bedform features and cross-sections have remained stable (i.e. the stream has retained its enhanced Rosgen stream-type classification) through the date of this report. Therefore, ' Year One monitoring of the stream channel confirms a successful, stable channel. 2.4 Benthic Monitoring ' The Year One benthic survey was completed on April 13, 2005, by S&EC. This sampling event replicated a baseline benthos survey that was performed by S&EC on July 12, 2001, before construction commenced. This sampling event was conducted ' according to protocol specified by the NCDENR-DWQ Standard Operating Procedures for Benthic Macroinvertebrates. Samples were taxonomically identified by Pennington & Associates, Inc. of Cookeville, TN. Results of the Year One sampling event are shown ' in the following table and attached as Appendix D. As shown below, the Year One monitoring has shown an increase in all four metrics reported, including EPT Taxa Richness. While a general increase in organisms is not always a positive indicator, we have seen a shift towards more intolerant species, as is shown in the NC Biotic Index. Tolerance Values range from 0 for organisms very intolerant of organic wastes to 10 for organisms very tolerant of organic wastes. As this index as decreased, we are seeing more organisms that require higher quality waters in ' the system. The Average EPT Taxa Richness has increased from 2 species to 11. This raises the classification of the stream from Poor to Fair. We believe that as the system progresses, we will continue to see increased numbers of EPT taxa. The following results summary is provided in the following table. Pre Year l 2001 2005 TOTAL NO. OF ORGANISMS 47 60 TOTAL NO. OF TAXA 30 26 EPT TAXA RICHNESS 2 11 EPT ABUNDANCE 5 23 NC BIOTIC INDEX 6.960 5.960 ' Overall, in Year One there has been an increase in the total number of organisms. This is coupled with an increase in the number of different species in all stations. The richness ' and abundance of EPT taxa showed increases in all sampling stations, showing a shift toward more intolerant species. This shift towards higher quality, more intolerant species is also shown in the decrease in the NC Biotic Index.

North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources p .? Alan W. Klimek, P .E. Director Division of Water Quality June 19, 2006 Mr. Patrick Smith S&EC 11010 Raven Ridge Rd. Raleigh, NC 27614 Re: Mount Vernon Springs Stream and Wetland Restoration, Chatham County, NC (DWQ # 01- 1206) Dear Mr. Smith: DWQ has received and reviewed the, "Year One Monitoring Report for Mount Vernon Springs Stream and Wetland Restoration, Chatham County, North Carolina, February 2006." The following comments arose upon review of the document: 1. The hydrologic data for all 8 monitoring wells appear to meet the success criteria for year one. 2. The vegetation monitoring should be conducted during the growing season (approximately March 16 to October 16 according to the report). This will allow easier vegetation identification and more accurate assessment of the health of the vegetation. 3. Tree densities for the vegetation in plots 4 and 8 are below the five year success criteria of 260 trees per acre. Plot 2 is marginally successful relative to the 320 tree per acre success criteria established for year 3. Although the average tree density for the entire site is 698, plots 2, 4, and 8 may represent problem areas on the site and corrective actions may need to be taken in these areas (e.g. additional plantings, limiting competition, etc). 4. Please provide separate density estimates of volunteer species within each plot for all future reports. The photograph for plot 4 appears to have several woody stems in the plot, yet the survey only shows two trees in the plot. 5. Future reports should include a map showing the location of the macroinvertebrate sampling sites and the location of the reference site. It is difficult to determine the extent of invertebrate recovery without knowledge of the reference site. 6. Future reports should include an estimate of the size of the catchment and an estimate of stream width at baseflow. In the report it is unclear how much stream catchment is upstream of each of the macroinvertebrate sites. Biocriteria were applied to the macroinvertebrate community, however streams with catchments <3 sq miles should not be rated (at least not without correction factors) because the streams will be rated artificially low. It is possible that the streams are closer to recovery than currently portrayed.

The stream channel appears to be very stable at this point. It is DWQ's hope that they will remain so after a couple of bankfull events. DWQ appreciates the timely submittal of this monitoring report. We look forward to watching the progress of this site over the next four years.
