RE: Gray Farm
Dear Mr. Schiller:
After review of the submitted Restoration plan (10-26-05), EEP has the following comments:
1) Section 2.0 Project Goals & Objectives-The goals and objectives merely list what you are doing in
the project. EEP recommends that you provide goals and objectives that describe what the project
will do in regards to watershed restoration. For example, objective number 7 states that the project
will improve water quality. How will it improve water quality and from what current condition to a
restored condition.
2) Section 5.2 Site Soils-EEP recommends soil testing for proper vegetative replacement and to
determine soil fertility.
3) Section 8.3 Success Criteria-Plan only lists what will be measured. You are supposed to submit
suitable quantitative success criteria that results in a pass/fail. Example: Cross-sections-How much
loss/gain (%) is acceptable?
4) Plan sheet 4-EEP believes that project will affect wetland acreage outside (West) of easement line.
Provide a narrative discussing the effects (from stream project) on both this wetland and wetland in
reach 2.
Please contact me with any questions at 919-715-1157. Thank you.

Amendments to the Stream Restoration Plan for the Gray Farm Project Restoration Plan are as
follows:
1. In Section 2.0 Project Goals and Objectives, insert the following paragraph between the
first and second paragraphs;
The goals of the Gray Farm Stream Restoration proiect are:
1) Improve local water quality within the restored channel reaches as well as the
downstream watercourses through;
a. The reduction of current channel and off site sediment loads by restoring
appropriately sized channels with stable beds and banks.
b. The reduction of nutrient loads (both soil enhancement practices and
cattle) from adjacent agricultural fields with a restored riparian buffer.
c. The reduction of water temperatures provided by shading of the channel
from canopy species along with the resultant increase in oxygen content.
2) Improve local aquatic and terrestrial habitat and diversity within the restored
channels and their vicinity throw
a. The formation of varying bed form within the channels to provide for
fish, amphibian, and benthic species.
b. The restoration of a suitable riparian buffer corridor which will provide
both vertical and horizontal structure and connectivity with adjacent
upland areas.
c. The restoration o understory and canopy species which will provide
orage cover, and nesting or a variety of mammals, reptiles, and avian
s2ecies.
3) Improve local watershed conditions through the restoration of two low order
streams (one first order, one second order) and the placement of permanent
conservation easements.
2. In Section 7.6 Site Restoration insert the following sentence between the first and second
sentences of the second paragraph;
peci ac soil tests may be performed (across the site or at specific locations) prior
to site planting operations if, in the opinion of the designer and planting
contractor surface soil conditions are potentiall iy nadequate to support ri og rous
growth o the proposed planting species Should soil amendments (fertilizer lime,
Pagel of 2
etc.) be necessary, it will be applied Warin ly so as not to present a threat to
restoration efforts.
3. In Section 8.3, Success Criteria, insert the following sentences between the first and
second sentences of the second paragraph;
Bed form ( including the overall channel slope), the location of riffles and pools,
as well as the general stability, condition, and function ofrock and log cross
vanes and i-hooks will be evaluated annually. Cross-sections will be measured
and quantified for departure from the as-built conditions on characteristics to
include but not limited to: mean depth, maximum depth, bankfull width, and
cross-sectional area. A qualitative evaluation ofgeneral channel condition
including the identification ofscour, localized erosion, undesirable deposition,
etc., will also be performed annually.
4. In Section 7.5 Associated Wetland Creation insert the following paragraph before the
first (only) paragraph;
As described in Section 5.8 a total of approximately 3.67 acres ofjurisdictional
waters currently exist between the two conservation easements. Most i not all of
this wetland acreage can be attributed to the existence of the two pond dams. On
Reach 1 the dam is still in place and serves to hold a permanent water surface in
the pond thereby saturatinggdjacent soils and creating these adiacent wetlands.
In its current condition, the dam creates a significant backwater condition well
ypstream of the dam. On Reach 2, while the dam was previously breached and a
biped crossing installed, the existing all and pipe continue to restrict both surface
and channel flow upstream of the crossing. Additionally based on our site
observations, until the recent installation of livestock exclusion fences, cattle
routinelytgrazed and watered within the channel bed along Reach 2. This tray
has, over time, resulted in the destruction of the defined channel banks, over-
widening of the channel, and the localized deposition along roughly two-thirds of
the restoration reach. These conditions have thereby resulted in the creation of a
significant wetland acreage along, the reach. Based on site topography and
conditions observed elsewhere on the two restoration reaches it is unlikely that
the delineated wetlands would exist had the pond dams not been installed and
cattle had been excluded from the stream.
Insert this sentence at the beginning of the next paragraph in the same section:
Thus while there will be a loss of wetland acreage with the proposed stream
restoration activities this plan proposes to offset those impacts, i ossible,
through the creation of riparian wetlands.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
Restoration Systems, LLC has been contracted by the North Carolina Ecosystem
' Enhancement Program (NCEEP) to restore approximately 7,610 linear feet of stream
channel on the Gray Farm Property near the town of Statesville in Iredell County, NC
(Hydrologic Cataloging Unit 03050101). Two separate stream reaches (Reach 1 and
' Reach 2) will be restored using natural channel design methodologies. See Figure 1 for a
project location map.
' This report presents the design rationale and documentation for the proposed Restoration
Plan to restore stream function and the resultant habitat. This will be performed through
the construction of the two appropriately sized stream channels and the planting of
' adjacent wooded riparian buffers. The interested reader is referred to the included
figures, plan sheets, and appendices for additional information.

1
2.0 PROJECT GOALS & OBJECTIVES

The channelized and impaired state of the two existing streams, limited floodplain
functionality due to channel incision, existing and future erosion and sedimentation
potential, and lack of native vegetation along the banks in some areas (adjacent to
cropland) indicate that these streams present viable restoration projects. The remainder
of the property consists of a dairy farm operation, with a large portion serving as pasture
land or forage crops for cattle.
In this process the following objectives are intended to be accomplished:
1) Restore approximately 7,610 linear feet of appropriately sized stream channel that
is stable and self-maintaining, and will not aggrade or degrade over time.
Restoration will be accomplished with Rosgen-based natural channel design
procedures and techniques.
2) Develop restored channels with the appropriate morphological characteristics
(cross-sectional dimension, pattern, and longitudinal profile) utilizing collected
reference reach data as a guide. Allow for no net loss of overall channel length in
the process.
3) Create and/or improve bed form diversity (riffles, runs, pools, and glides) and
improve aquatic and benthic macroinvertebrate habitat.
4) Construct a floodplain (or local bankfull bench) that is accessible at the proposed
bankfull channel elevation.
5) Ensure channel and stream bank stabilization by integrating in-stream structures
and native bank vegetation.

11
6) Establish a native forested and herbaceous riverine buffer plant community within
a minimum width of 50 feet from the edge of the restored channel. This new
community will be established in conjunction with the eradication of any existing
exotic and/or undesirable plant species.
7) Improve water quality within the subject channels and the downstream receiving
waters.
8) Supplement the education and conservation efforts for natural resources in Iredell
County as indicated in program goals for the local Soil & Water Conservation
District and the NC Cooperative Extension Service.

3.0 PROJECT LOCATION
The Gray Farm Stream Restoration project is located in the Catawba Basin, Hydrologic
' Cataloging Unit 03050101. The project consists of two separate reaches along unnamed
tributaries of Buffalo Shoals Creek, a tributary of the Catawba River.
' The site, totaling approximately 20 acres (split between two conservation easements), is
located approximately 10 miles due west of the city of Statesville in western Iredell
County, NC. See the attached Project Location Map (Figure 1) and USGS Vicinity Map
' (Figure 2) (prepared using the DeLorme NC Gazetteer and the Stony Point 7.5 minute
series USGS Topographic Quadrangle) for specifics on directions to the site and the
surrounding vicinity. See the attached Watershed Map for surrounding watershed and
' contributing drainage areas for each restoration reach (Figure 3).
According to the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources
(NCDENR), Division of Water Quality (DWQ) website, the segments of Buffalo Shoals
Creek immediately downstream of the two restoration reaches (Stream Index Number 1I-
78-(0.5)) is classified as a Class WS-IV watercourse. Class WS-IV (Water Supply IV)
waters are defined as: "waters protected in water supplies which are generally in
moderately to highly developed watersheds."

' 4.0 GENERAL WATERSHED INFORMATION
During site analyses, the characteristics of the sites and their surrounding areas were
observed. Surface and channel flow conditions, and existing water conveyance structures
' were located or verified. This section describes the evaluation of the project watershed
(See Figure 2).
4.1 Drainage Area
The watershed areas for Reaches 1 and 2 are estimated at approximately 0.91 square
miles (582 acres) and 0.085 square miles (54 acres) respectively. Based on a review of
USGS topographic mapping, Reach 1 is a second order stream forming at the confluence
of three first order tributaries immediately upstream of the head of the restoration reach.
Reach 2 is a first order stream forming at the immediate upstream end of the restoration
reach.
¦ 4.2 Land Usage & Distribution
The majority of the area surrounding both sites (both located within the larger Gray Farm
property) has most recently been used for agricultural purposes (primarily row crop and
forage crop production along with pasture). This use has been continuous for many
years.
The surrounding area and contributing watershed is similarly used primarily for
agricultural purposes with individual home sites and agricultural buildings. Select small
municipal, commercial, or industrial facilities are also sparsely intermixed into the mostly
rural landscape.
¦ 4.3 Future Land Use
¦ With the execution of the proposed restoration plan, the extents of the conservation
easement (Appendix A) will be removed from agricultural use. The remainder of the
Gray Farm will continue to be used for agricultural purposes.
Based on observation of current land use in the surrounding area and the primarily rural
landscape, it is unlikely that future (5 to 10 years) land usage will differ considerably
¦ from the current use.

5.0 EXISTING SITE CONDITIONS
On July 19 through 22, 2005, July 27 through 29, 2005, and again on August 16 through
18, 2005, Soil & Environmental Consultants, PA, performed a limited engineering survey
using Total Station equipment to identify site characteristics to include, but not limited to,
open channels, water conveyances, select utilities, topographic features, and structures.
While on site, surface and open channel flow conditions, and the surrounding (and
contributing) drainage area were observed.
This section describes existing site conditions at the Gray Farm Property based on field
data recorded by Soil & Environmental Consultants, PA, during site visits to date. See
' attached Overall Site Plan (Plan Sheet 2) and Appendix B - Site Photographs for details
of the site.
5.1 Existing Hydrologic Features
Both restoration sites drain generally south towards Buffalo Shoals Creek which then
flows southeast toward its confluence with the Catawba River, approximately five miles
to the southeast. Several smaller tributary ditches have been constructed on the
agricultural lands adjacent to Reach 1 to aid in agricultural drainage. These ditches are
directed toward the stream. A single mapped tributary joins the restoration reach near the
south end of the channel. Reach 2 consists of a single channel with no natural tributaries
or constructed ditches.
0 5.2 Site Soils
' On July 28, 2005, S&EC performed a limited soil evaluation of the site to characterize
each restoration reach and determine the general soil series that exist. Reaches 1 & 2
were evaluated in the field with shallow hand auger soil borings. During this visit S&EC
' observed site landforms (slope, drainage patterns, past use, etc.) as well as soil conditions
(depth, texture, structure, seasonal wetness, restrictive horizons, etc.). The site's location
is shown on the Iredell County Soil Survey segment included as Figure 4. Results of the
' soil evaluation for each reach are described in Appendix J. No laboratory soil tests were
performed.
' 5.3 Existing Plant Community
Soil and environmental Consultants, PA (S&EC) performed a visual survey of both
' restoration reaches for the purpose of quantifying existing vegetative conditions and the
identification of represented species along each restoration reach.
5.3.1 Reach 1- Existing Vegetation
The canopy of Reach 1 is primarily composed of Tulip Poplar (Liriodendron
tulipifera), Loblolly Pine (Pinus taeda), Swamp Chestnut (Quercus michauxii),
Red Maple (Acer rubrum), River Birch (Betula nigra), White Oak (Quercus
5
alba), Sycamore (Platanus occidentalis), and Elderberry (Sambucus canadensis).
The understory consists of saplings of the canopy species as well as several other
species including American holly (Ilex opaca), Chinese privet (Ligustrum
sinense), and tag alder (Alnus serrulata). Herbaceous species include greenbriar
(Smilax rotundifolia), microstegium (Eulalia viminea), poison ivy
(Toxicodendron radicans), jewel weed (Impatiens capensis), blackberry ?(Rubus
sp.), American pokeweed (Phytolacca americana), Goldenrod (Solidago sp.)
Chinese Lespezda (Lespedeza cuneata). Along Reach 1 there is a small
infestation of the highly invasive plant Kudzu (Pueraria montana). The
eradication of this population is addressed further in Section 7.7.
5.3.2 Reach 2 - Existing Vegetation
The canopy of Reach 2 is similarly composed of Tulip Poplar (Liriodendron
tulipifera), Loblolly Pine (Pinus taeda), River Birch (Betula nigra), White Oak
(Quercus alba), and Sycamore (Platanus occidentalis). The understory consists
of saplings of the canopy species as well as Atlantic White Cedar (Chamaecyparis
thyoides), Red maple (Acer rubrum), Hickory (Carya sp.) and American holly
(Ilex opaca). Herbaceous species include microstegium (Eulalia viminea),
blackberry (Rubus sp.), and American pokeweed (Phytolacca americana).

I
5.4 Stream Geometry & Substrate Material
Soil and environmental Consultants, PA (S&EC) performed a physical and visual survey
of both restoration reaches for the purpose of quantifying existing channel conditions and
stream channel classification.
5.4.1 Reach 1- Existing Conditions

The current channel was surveyed to develop two (2) typical stream cross-
sections (one riffle and one pool) and a general longitudinal profile defining the
existing degraded channel conditions. A reach wide pebble count (modified
Wolman) was also performed for the purpose of substrate classification (see
Appendix D).
The channel substrate consists primarily of sands, gravel, and cobble over most of
the reach. The substrate D50 was measured at 3.46 mm. From survey data, a
Level II Classification (Rosgen) was performed for the existing stream resulting
in the stream's classification as a Type F4 for Reach 1. An F4 Type stream is
gravel dominated, meandering, and deeply incised in gentle terrain and alluvial
valleys, resulting in the abandonment of former floodplains (Rosgen, 1996). The
number four (4) in the classification represents the D50 of the channel substrate, in
this case a gravel material. This classification was consistent with observed site
conditions.
The sinuosity of Reach 1 was measured at approximately 1.19. The entrenchment
ratio (the floodprone width, Wf?a divided by the bankfull width, Wbkf) of the
6
existing channel is 1.29, and the width/depth ratio (Wbkf /dbkf) is 13.96. The
measured bankfull slope was 0.00647 ft/ft.

The existing channel bed has little or no facets due to straightening and significant
incision. The interested reader is referred to Table 1 (Stream Morphological
Characteristics Data Table) in Appendix D which contains the morphological
characteristics for the existing conditions on Reach 1. Additionally Appendix E,
F, and G contain additional Existing Conditions Stream Data, Reference Reach
Data, and Proposed Conditions Stream Data respectively for the restoration of
Reach 1.
5.4.2 Reach 2 - Existing Conditions
The current channel was surveyed to develop two (2) typical stream cross-
sections (one riffle and one pool) and a general longitudinal profile defining the
existing stream conditions. A reach wide pebble count (modified Wolman) was
similarly performed for the purpose of substrate classification (see Appendix D).
The channel substrate consists primarily of sands, gravel, and cobble over most of
the reach. The substrate D50 was measured at 4.12 mm. From survey data, a
Level II Classification (Rosgen) was performed for the existing stream. This
resulted in a classification of a Type G4 channel for Reach 2. A G4 Type stream
is deeply incised in depositional material. These channels are very unstable, and
have a moderate gradient, low width/depth ratio, and low sinuosity. Here again,
the number four (4) represents a gravel substrate material. This classification was
consistent with our site observations.
The sinuosity of the Reach 2 is approximately 1.05. The entrenchment ratio of
' the existing channel is 1.32, and the width/depth ratio is 7.32. The measured
bankfull slope was 0.02565 ft/ft.
' Similar to Reach 1, the existing channel bed has little or no facets due to
straightening and incision. Table 2 (Stream Morphological Characteristics Data
Table) located in Appendix D contains the morphological characteristics for the
existing conditions along Reach 2. The interested reader is similarly referred to
the Appendices (E, F, and G) for additional data regarding Reach 2 and its
reference reach.
5.5 Threatened and Endangered Species
' In order to assess potential impacts to any federal and state threatened and/or endangered
species the proposed restoration effort may pose, a review was performed at the North
Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NHP) Raleigh office. In addition, the list of
' threatened and endangered species maintained by the Fish and Wildlife Service was
consulted.
' The NHP review indicated that there were no occurrences on or immediately adjacent to
either site that have been recorded with the NHP office. Review of the list compiled by
7
the Fish and Wildlife Service for Iredell County indcated that the bog turtle (Clemmys
muhlenbergi) is listed for Iredell County. The status assigned to the bog turtle is
threatened due to similarity in appearance with other rare species (T (S/A)). This species
is not biologically threatened or endangered. There are three species listed as "Federal
Species of Concern" including the Alleghany Woodrat (Neotoma magister), Heller's
trefoil (Lotus helleri), and Tall larkspur (Delphinium exaltatum). These species are
merely under consideration for listing and are not currently protected.
C

As there have been no occurrences reported to NHP of any currently listed species, it is
unexpected that restoration activities will have any impact on any protected species. As
part of the restoration process, a Categorical Exclusion (CE) was performed. A copy the
CE document and its attachments is included in Appendix I.
5.6 Nearby Areas of Historical Significance
The State Historical Preservation Office (SHPO) was contacted in order to determine
potential impacts as a result of the proposed restoration effort at Gray Farm to any nearby
areas of historical significance.
According to Ms. Renee Gledhill-Earley at SHPO, and as described in her letter dated
January 28, 2005, there are no nearby areas of historical significance that would be
impacted by the proposed work. A copy of this letter is attached to the CE document in
Appendix I.
5.7 Other Site Features & Utilities
Based on site observations to date, no structures exist within the bounds of either of the
restoration reaches or their conservation easements. Select other utilities to include
electric and telephone were identified along Riggs Road (SR 1533) near Reach 1 and
New Sterling Road (SR 1526) near Reach 2. These utilities may require specific location
and marking by the construction contractor prior to commencement of restoration
activities. Temporary construction easements (TCE) have been identified and recorded
for both restoration reaches. Exact locations are described on the maps provided in
Appendix A.
5.8 Site Wetland Delineation
On October 11, 2005, a wetland delineation was performed on site by S&EC in order to
determine the extents of jurisdictional waters. Approximately 3.67 acres of jurisdictional
waters exist on site. At the north end of Reach 1 exists a 1.40 acre pond (approximate)
with approximately 1.30 acres of associated wetlands. Approximately 0.97 acres of
wetlands are located along Reach 2. A copy of the preliminary stream and wetland
delineation is provided in Appendix H.

6.0 REFERENCE STREAM EVALUATION
' In order to facilitate restoration plan development as well as support project goals, two
off-site stream reference reaches were identified and characterized. This section
' describes the evaluation of these reference sites, as well as the on-site jurisdictional
waters delineation performed on the Gray Farm project area by Soil & Environmental
Consultants, PA (S&EC).
6.1 Reference Stream
' The reference reaches occupy similar landscape positions to that of the Gray Farm stream
reaches. The reference areas were quantitatively and qualitatively assessed, and species
' lists for each vegetative stratum (trees and shrubs) were recorded.
6.1.1 Reach 1 Reference Site
' The reference reach site for Reach 1 is located in Doughton National Park, near
Stone Mountain State Park, approximately 1.4 miles north of the intersection of
' Long Bottom Road (SR 1730) and Grassy Gap Road (an access road to Doughton
National Park) and just west of Grassy Gap Road (see Figure 5). The reach is
located on Basin Creek, a tributary to the Middle Prong of the Roaring River in
' Wilkes County, NC. The tributary flows generally east-southeast discharging
along the western bank of the Middle Prong of the Roaring River. Due to the
limited availability of suitable Type C reference streams in the project area, this
' site was chosen to maintain conditions similar to those intended for replication at
the restoration site.
' The reference reach was surveyed with Total Station equipment. The survey
included approximately 758 linear feet of channel or approximately 24 bankfull
widths. Five (5) cross-sections (three riffles and two pools) and a longitudinal
' profile were surveyed. Key morphological characteristics developed include: a
bankfull cross-sectional area (Abkf•) of 79.79 square feet (ft) , a bankfull width
(Wbkf) of 32.08 feet, and a mean bankf ill depth (dbkf•) of 2.49 feet.
' The reference channel has an average entrenchment ratio of 3.12, and an average
width/depth ratio of 12.88. Channel sinuosity is approximately 1.17, and bankfull
' slope is approximately 0.01074 ft/ft. The reference reach was observed to have
distinct bed facets corresponding with channel pattern. The Level II classification
for the reference reach is C4. A C4 Type stream is a meandering, gravel
' dominated, riffle/pool channel with a well developed floodplain (Rosgen, 1996).
Table 1 in Appendix D contains the morphological characteristics of the surveyed
reference stream reach. Appendix F contains cross-section data for the reference
' reach.
Vegetation adjacent to the reference reach includes: Chestnut Oak (Quercus
' prinus), Red maple (Acer rubrum), Hickory (Carya sp.), White Pine (Pinus
strobus), River Birch (Betula nigra), Dogwood (Corpus sp.), Rhododendron
9
(Rhododendron sp.), and Mountain laurel (Kalmia latifolia). Photos of the
reference reach are provided in Appendix C.

6.1.3 Reach 2 Reference Site
The reference reach site for Reach 2 is located approximately 0.3 miles east of
Ebenezer Church Road (SR 1649) and 0.8 mile southeast of the intersection of
Ebenezer Church Road (SR 1649) and Graylyn Drive (SR 1647) (see Figure 6).
The reach is located on an unnamed tributary to Turkey Creek within Umstead
State Park in Wake County, NC. The tributary flows generally west-southwest
discharging along the eastern bank of Turkey Creek. Due to the limited
availability of reference streams in the project area, this site was chosen to
maintain conditions similar to those intended for replication at the restoration site.
The reference reach was surveyed with Total Station equipment. The survey
included approximately 266 linear feet of channel or approximately 55 bankfull
widths. Four (4) cross-sections (three riffles and one pool) and a longitudinal
profile were surveyed. Key morphological characteristics developed include; a
bankfull cross-sectional area (Abkf) of 1.94 square feet (ft) , a bankfull width
(Wbkt') of 4.86 feet, and a mean bankfull depth (dbkf) of 0.4 feet.
10
The reference channel has an average entrenchment ratio of 1.8, and an average
width/depth ratio of 12.15. Channel sinuosity is approximately 1.23, and bankfull
slope is approximately 0.039 ft/ft. The reference reach has distinct facets
corresponding with channel pattern. The Level II classification for the reference
reach is B4. A B4 Type stream is a moderately entrenched gravel dominated
stream with a moderate gradient, and is characterized as a series of rapids with
irregularly spaced scour pools (Rosgen, 1996). Table 2 in Appendix D contains
' the morphological characteristics of the surveyed reference stream reach.
Appendix F contains cross-section data for the reference reach.
Vegetation adjacent to the reference reach was composed primarily of Tulip
' Poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera), Loblolly Pine (Pinus taeda), River Birch (Betula
nigra), Sycamore (Platanus occidentalis) and several Oak (Quercus) species. The
' understory includes saplings of the canopy species as well as Red maple (Acer
rubrum) and American holly (Ilex opaca). Photos of the reference reach are
provided in Appendix C.

7.0 STREAM RESTORATION PLAN
Restoration of the Gray Farm Property will be accomplished by restoring the existing
stream channels and the planting of a riparian buffer along each restoration reach.
Reference stream reaches (and other available stream data) were used as a guideline for
stream restoration design. The interested reader is referred to the attached Plan Sheets for
additional information regarding the proposed restoration plan.
7.1 Site Demolition Plan
Site demolition will consist of the removal of the existing dam and the single existing
culvert along Reach 1. The existing culvert and road crossing near the downstream end
of Reach 2 will remain in place. This road crossing over Reach 2 is not included in the
conservation easement. Current plans do not call for the removal or relocation of any
utilities. The construction contractor will be responsible for demolition, removal, and the
appropriate disposal of all demolition debris in accordance with local, state, and federal
guidelines. It will be the contractor's responsibility to identify appropriate local disposal
sites, obtain necessary disposal permits, and pay permit fees.
7.2 Stream Restoration Concept
The implementation of the restoration plan will result in the development of stable
natural stream channels within a contiguous, fully vegetated, and protected riverine
corridor.
In order to perform the necessary stream restoration along the impacted reach, natural
channel design methods were employed. The restored reach will have the appropriate
dimension (cross-section), pattern (sinuosity), and profile (channel slope) of a naturally
occurring, stable channel based on the use of an appropriate reference reach with the
appropriate valley type and land form. Design included the evaluation of both water and
sediment transport requirements to produce a stable stream in dynamic equilibrium.
Restoration of natural channel geometry and structure will not only improve morphologic
function and habitat within the immediate channel environment, but also in the water
quality downstream of the restored channel. Stream banks will be planted with native
vegetation that represents both woody (trees and shrubs) and herbaceous species. Species
' selection was based on a survey of the vegetation from the existing corridor, the reference
reach, and from reference literature that details native species for the area.
Restoration of a suitable riverine buffer will enhance the recovery and protection of the
restored streams. A protected buffer (with a minimum width of 50 feet) will be restored
on both sides of the channel restoration reaches. The wooded corridors that will be
' established as part of this restoration will also increase the vertical and horizontal
structure perpendicular to the channel along the reach helping to increase species
composition and abundance.
t
12
' Additionally, the presence of a wooded buffer adjacent to the channel increases in-stream
habitat quality for fish, amphibians, and benthic macro-invertebrates by providing shade
t which in turn cools the water and increases oxygen content. The restored buffer also
provides cover, travel corridors, and access to adjacent natural areas for mammalian,
reptilian, and avian species.
' A
7.3 Natural Channel Design
The restoration design for the site streams are based on natural channel design principles
_ and techniques utilizing reference reach data sets and the existing channel conditions
survey data. Reference data utilized in our design includes the previously described
' reference reaches and the North Carolina Piedmont Regional Curve (SRI 2004). A plan
view of the general restoration alignment for each reach is provided in Plan Sheets 3 and
8. Typical proposed channel and floodplain cross-sections for each reach are shown on
' Plan Sheet 12.
' 7.3.1 Restoration Methodology
The proposed restored stream type for Reach 1 is a C4. The proposed restored
stream type for Reach 2 is a B4. Tables 1 and 2 (Stream Morphological
' Characteristics Data Tables) in Appendix D contain existing, reference, and
proposed stream morphological characteristics for the two restoration reaches.
' Rock cross vanes will be located at the beginning and end of each reach, and
at any straight sections of significant length throughout each reach. The
' cross-vanes will provide grade control for the reach and protect both sides of
the stream-banks in straight sections. Rock and log j-hooks will be placed
along meander bends to assist in the formation of pools and protect the banks.
' The j-hooks will protect the outside meanders from lateral erosion, improve
channel facets, and improve sediment transport. The proposed structures will
be constructed of rock or hardwood logs. Log j-hooks will be constructed
' with logs approximately 12 to 15 inches in diameter. Boulders will be utilized
in these structures as depicted in the details. Structures will maintain grade
control and stability throughout the channel.

Reach 1 restoration will be a combination of a Priority I (reconnection of the
channel with its historic floodplain) restoration and a Priority II (construction
t of a new floodplain at a lower elevation) restoration. Reach 2 will be a
Priority I restoration. Restoring sinuosity will lengthen both channels, thereby
lowering their slope. This change in profile will provide a more appropriate
' hydraulic connection of bankfull flow and the historic floodplain (or the
newly constructed floodplain). The restoration design will result in a riffle-
pool system with proper pattern and profile.
'
Erosion control matting (coir matting), temporary seeding, and live stakes will
be utilized to reduce bank erosion immediately following completion of the
' channel and to provide bank stabilization.
' 13
7.3.2 Channel Design Results
t Restoration design was performed using a variety of computer software and
modeling tools to include RIVERMorph, AutoCAD, and ArcGIS. In
' combination, these tools, professional judgment, along with our previous
experience with similar projects allow for the development of an appropriate
restoration design.
' After calculating relevant dimensionless ratios from the stable reference
reaches, these ratios were then applied to the existing stream values chosen'to
' match the regional curve at their respective drainage areas. Slope, sinuosity,
radius of curvature, and belt width must all meet the range of values provided
in the reference reach analysis, and site constraints such as meandering within
the available belt width, and tying into the existing channel at the upstream
and downstream restoration extents, as well as any tributaries or permanent
culverts within the restoration reach. Once these values were determined,
t sediment transport competency was calculated (see section 7.3.3). A valid
design must fall within the range of values calculated from the reference reach
analysis, meet all site constraints, and also transport the channel's natural
' sediment supply.
Key channel design parameters describing the dimension, pattern, and profile
of the two proposed restoration designs (that met all of the necessary design
criteria listed above) are as follows:

7.3.3 Channel Competency Determination
' In order to determine the ability of the existing (or proposed) reaches to
transport its bedload, it is necessary to calculate the critical dimensionless
shear stress needed to mobilize and transport the largest particle in motion
' under bankfull flow conditions. An entrainment analysis of the proposed
channel must be conducted to ensure the restored channel will not aggrade or
' degrade.
In order to predict bedload transport in the restored reach, a sediment core
sample from a point bar in the restoration reach or upstream of the reach is
' collected. The material is wet sieved, weighed, and recorded into size-
dependent categories. The data represents the range of channel materials
subject to movement or transport as bedload at bankfull discharge. The data is
' plotted and the D16, D35, Dso, D84, D95 can then be determined from a
distribution curve (Rosgen, 2002). The data for the bar samples collected for
' Reaches 1 and 2 are located in Appendix D.
The mean depth required to maintain sediment transport without aggradation
or degradation must be calculated to validate the restoration design and ensure
' stability. This depth was calculated with a critical dimensionless shear stress
formula. The two commonly used methods used to calculate the critical shear
' stress are from E.D. Andrews:
Using the Pavement to Subpavement Ratio:
' 'Lei* = 0.0834`? )-0'872 Equation A
mmSO,bed?SO,bar
' Using the Surface Materials Ratio:
iei* = 0.0384(Di/Ds0,bed)-0.887 Equation B

Where:
' ici* = Critical dimensionless shear stress
Dso,bed = Median diameter of the active riffle bed material (mm)
'
Ds0,bar = Median diameter of the bar sample or sub-pavement sample
(assumes that the median bar sample is approximately equal
to the mean sub-pavement particle) (mm)
Di = Largest particle diameter from bar or subpavement sample
' (mm)
To determine which equation will be used, the ratio of Ds0
bar is
bedIDs0
' ,
,
calculated. If this ratio falls between 3 and 7, then Equation A is used.
Otherwise, the ratio of Di/Dso,bed is calculated. If this ratio falls between 1.3
' 15
I
I

I

11
and 3, then Equation B is used. For Reach 1, Equation B was appropriate,
and in Reach 2, Equation A was appropriate.
Once the critical dimensionless shear stress is calculated, the required depth is
calculated using the Shields relation:
dbkr = (Ti* ?YS D,)/S
Where:
dbxt = Bankfull mean depth required to move largest particle (D,) (ft.)
Di = Largest particle diameter from bar or subpavement sample (ft.)
YS = Submerged specific weight of sediment (1.65) (dimensionless)
S = Water surface slope (ft./ft.)
In Reach 1, a necessary mean bankfull depth of 0.92 ft was calculated, so the
dbkf of 1.17ft will be sufficient. For Reach 2, a necessary mean bankfull depth
of 0.56 ft was calculated, so the dbxr of 0.57 ft will be sufficient.
7.3.4 In-Stream Structures
As mentioned previously, in order to provide grade control for the restored
reach, rock and log cross vanes and j-hooks (with or without steps), will be
integrated within the final design and will be utilized to reinforce and stabilize
the proposed channel. All structures will be constructed out of natural
materials typically consisting of locally quarried boulders or logs. The
upstream side of these structures will be lined with a non-woven fabric where
necessary and backfilled with excavated channel material and in some cases
imported stone aggregate to improve stability and reduce the potential for
piping.
These in-stream structures concentrate stream energy toward the center of the
' channel and away from the near-bank areas. This reduces shear stress along
the banks and prevents bank erosion. In-stream structures also serve as grade
control within the bed of the channel, reduce the potential of head cutting,
' create a stable width/depth ratio (Wbkf /dbkf), and promote sediment transport
capacity.
A single at-grade stream crossing (ford) will be constructed on Reach 1. The
exact location and configuration will be determined at the time of
construction. The crossing will be generally located within a wide riffle
immediately upstream of a rock cross vane.
Structure placement will be finalized on site by the design engineer, however,
' the approximate placement is shown on Plan Sheets 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, and 11.
Typical structure details are shown on Sheets 14 and 15. A representative of
16
S&EC will be on site during construction to observe and direct channel
construction efforts including the installation of in-stream structures.
7.4 Vegetative Buffer Restoration
A buffer planting zone will be established along the restored stream channel from the top
of the restored channel banks outward toward the outer edge of the newly restored
floodplain (a minimum of 50 feet). The restored buffer will be planted with the
appropriate native riverine vegetation species in the form of bare-root seedlings and will
provide channel shading, corridor restoration, and the treatment of surface waters
traveling laterally through the buffer. The tables below display the tree and shrub species
that will be incorporated into this planting zone.

Alnus serrulata Tag alder
Viburnum nudum Possom-haw
Lindera benzoin Spicebush
* Species composition may be adjusted based on local availability.
Tree and shrub species individuals will be randomly intermixed and planted on an
8 ft. by 8 ft. spacing in order to ensure a desired planting density of 680 stems per
acre. This will increase the potential for the desired species diversity and the
5-year survivability density of at least 260 stems per acre. Site planting will
include a minimum of seven (7) of the tree species and three (3) of the shrub
species listed in the tables above.
The restored stream channel banks will be planted with the appropriate channel
bank species including Elderberry (Sambucus Canadensis), Silky dogwood
(Corpus amomum), and Silky willow (Salix sericea) in the form of live stakes
and, where possible, local transplants.
' Native trees and shrubs that are available elsewhere on site (within the graded
area) will be removed with as much of the root ball intact and transplanted
' adjacent to the restored channel or in the floodplain. Along with transplanted
woody vegetation, root mats (if available) will be used to assist in the stabilization
of meander bends.
' Vegetation will be supplied by locally identified plant sources or purchased from
local, reputable nurseries. Other sources, outside of the local area, may be used
depending on the availability of plant material, but will be approved in advance
by the designer.
' Temporary and/or permanent seeding measures (brown top millet, rye grain, or the most
appropriate erosion control grass as dictated by the season (See Plan Sheet 17)) will be
applied to areas disturbed during grading operations to allow for localized stabilization
while riverine species establish themselves. A representative of S&EC will be on site to
observe and direct planting efforts. Plan Sheet 16 shows the proposed planting schedule
and typical planting details.
' 7.5 Associated Wetland Creation
' Within the footprint of the existing pond at the head of Reach 1 and the old pond bed at
the tail of Reach 2, the opportunity may exist for creation of riparian wetlands.
Additional opportunities may exist to create vernal pools, oxbows, or pocket wetlands (in
' depressed areas along the old channel alignment) within the riparian zone along the
restored reaches. The exact location and size of these wetland features will be
determined by the designer based on site conditions at the time of construction.

7.6 Soil Restoration
During site grading, topsoil will be removed and stockpiled for later use. Topsoil will be
redistributed across planting areas during final grading. Topsoil will be stored in an
appropriate manner by the contractor to avoid erosion and off-site sedimentation. Based
on existing site uses and previous site modifications there are no indications that
underlying site soils are overly compacted. Accordingly, current plans do not call for
specific modification or soil restoration efforts (amendments and/or scarification) of the
existing site soils once grading operations are complete.
If however, upon completion of grading operations, areas of compacted soils are
observed, localized restoration efforts may be employed (i.e. scarification, addition of
topsoil, mulch, or other organics). Amendments will not be added to areas where
inundation may occur and transport this material off site.
7.7 Removal of Invasive or Undesirable Species
As mentioned previously, a population of the highly invasive vine Kudzu (Pueraria
Montana) has been identified near the upper end of Reach 1 (just downstream of the
existing pond and dam). In an attempt to eradicate the invasion, on September 5, 2005, a
treatment of Redeen® (an herbicide similar to Transline®) was applied by two registered
applicators using a high powered spray nozzle. A follow-up treatment was applied on
September 19, 2005. Subsequent site visits will be performed following construction to
evaluate the regrowth of Kudzu or any other invasives and perform spot treatments as
deemed necessary.
7.8 Erosion & Sediment Control
Since the total disturbed/denuded area as a result of restoration plan implementation
exceeds one (1.0) acre, an Erosion and Sediment (E&S) Control Permit will be required.
S&EC will prepare and submit an Erosion & Sediment Control Plan to the NCDENR
(Land Quality) Regional Office in Mooresville, NC. Preliminary coordination has
already been performed with the Mooresville office regarding the preparation and
submittal of the E&S Plan. Sediment and erosion control measures will be installed by
the contractor prior to commencing site grading activities.
Due to the proximity of grading operations to the adjacent open waters, extra care will be
' employed by the contractor to check all E&S control measures at the end of each day and
make necessary repairs or additions. The contractor will also inspect all E&S control
measures after periods of extended rainfall or significant rainfall events (> 0.5 inches).
The contractor will repair and stabilize exposed surfaces immediately, and remove and
properly dispose of accumulated sediment in behind silt fence, or elsewhere after these
events.
The site E&S Plan will include the location, details, and Technical Specifications for
control measures including the limits of disturbance, temporary construction entrances,
temporary stream crossings, temporary construction easements, equipment staging areas,
temporary haul roads, staging areas, the location of temporary silt fence, rock check
19
dams pumping operations, special (temporary) stilling basins, temporary stockpile areas
temporary and permanent seeding measures, etc.
The contractor shall employ the following general E&S control sequence prior to
grading:
Erosion and Sedimentation Control Sequence
' 1. Establish staging area as directed by the designer or as shown on the plans.
contractor will be responsible for installing necessary E&S control measures at
staging area (equipment staging areas, temporary stockpile areas, silt fence, etc.,
or other measures as contractor deems necessary). Establish temporary
construction entrances to site.
2. Install sediment and erosion control measures including silt fence and temporary
rock check dams as shown. Relocate and maintain as needed while construction
progresses.
3. Demolish or remove any existing structures within the proposed channel
alignment and remove wood, metal, concrete debris, refuse, and other materials
encountered. Clear and grub in required areas for stream restoration grading and
planting. Surround all stockpiles with silt fences.
4. Temporary seeding will be applied to areas that are not at final grade and will be
exposed for greater than two (2) weeks.
5. Install temporary pump around operations (rock check dams, bypass pump,
dewatering pump, and special stilling basin) as needed during stream
construction. Matting must be placed over every excavated channel section at the
end of each workday and before the pump is turned off.
6. After final grading is complete, permanent seeding will be applied to all exposed
areas. Seeding must be applied to all exposed areas within fifteen (15) days after
construction. Erosion control matting will be applied to all final graded sloped
steeper than 211:1 V. Permanent seeding and matting will be installed
incrementally as soon as an area reaches final grade.
7. Remove temporary sediment and erosion control measures. Silt fence must not be
removed until seed is placed and temporary grass has germinated. The contractor
shall remove accumulated sediment prior to removal of silt fence or other
measures.
Also refer to the Construction Sequence and Sediment and Erosion Control Details sheets
attached on Plan Sheets 13, 17, and 18.

7.9 Construction Sequence
' All aspects of site construction and planting operations will be supervised by a
representative of Soil & Environmental Consultants, PA (S&EC) during periodic site
visits. It will be the contractor's responsibility to have the appropriate equipment and
personnel on site to perform the tasks based on the project schedule. If potential conflicts
arise, the contractor shall notify the designer immediately so that adjustments can be
made.
The following construction sequence shall be used during construction:
Construction Sequence
' 1. Obtain local authority approval and all necessary State and Federal permits for
construction.
' 2. Contact NC One Call to locate and mark existing utilities on site.
3. Establish staging area as shown on the plans. Contractor will be responsible for
installing necessary E&S control measures at staging area (staging area, silt fence,
etc., or other measures as contractor deems necessary). Mobilize equipment and
materials to the staging area. Establish temporary construction entrances to site.
' 4. Install sediment and erosion control measures including silt fencing and check
dams. Install utility and tree protection (if necessary) fencing as directed by
designer. Contractor may utilize existing site stream crossings (if desired) at own
risk.
' 5. Remove wood, metal, concrete debris, refuse, and other materials encountered
and dispose of properly. Clear and grub in required areas for stream grading and
planting. Stockpile topsoil. Surround all stockpile areas with silt fence. Remove
trees as well as exotic and invasive species as directed by the designer.
6. Install pump around operation including the installation of special stilling
basin(s). Move and re-establish operation as necessary while construction
progresses.
7. Verify channel grading depths and extents. Initiate grading of stream channel and
adjacent floodplain area working from upstream end of restoration reach in a
downstream direction. Install in-stream structures, matting, temporary seeding,
and live stakes. Grade floodplain area. Matting must be placed over every
excavated channel section at the end of each workday and before the pump is
turned off.
8. Remove pump around operation and direct flow into excavated channel.
9. Apply permanent seeding measures. Perform buffer planting.
21
10. Remove temporary sediment and erosion control measures after groundcover is
established and site is stabilized.
11. Conduct final site inspection with the contractor, Restoration Systems, and
designer.
7.10 Future Site Maintenance
A site walk-through will be performed after the completion of construction and
permanent seeding and planting. The contractor and representatives from S&EC and
Restoration Systems, LLC will attend this review to observe the completed construction,
site planting, and discuss any future site maintenance operations that will ensure the
protection of the restored channels, and any trees and shrubs installed as part of this
project.

8.0 STREAM & BUFFER SUCCESS CRITERIA & MONITORING PLAN
This section includes information concerning stream restoration success criteria, physical
evaluation of the site, and the proposed monitoring schedule.
8.1 Stream Restoration Monitoring
The following physical, vegetative, and biological monitoring will be performed on each
restoration reach during the five year monitoring period:

8.1.1 Physical Monitoring
An as-built engineering survey of the site will be conducted upon completion of
the site restoration work to ensure that site grading work was performed in
general accordance with the restoration plan. The As-built Report will include the
constructed stream channel dimension, pattern, and longitudinal profile. This data
(collected by Total Station) will be utilized as a baseline to compare future
monitoring surveys and subsequently to determine annual channel stability and
transition.
Cross-section locations to be monitored will be established immediately following
' construction during the completion of the "as-built" survey. Permanently
established cross-sections located approximately every 500 to700 feet (depending
on final construction) will be comprised of a nested riffle and pool segment. Each
cross-section will be monumented and located for future identification and survey
work. All of these cross-sectional surveys will also be utilized as photographic
points.

Other stream channel measurements that will be completed during the annual
monitoring exercises will include pebble counts, stream pattern data, and stream-
side plant conditions. Annual inspection of in-stream rock and log vane and j-
hook structures will be performed to insure channel stability. The restoration
reach will be walked and observed for indications of deterioration or failure of
any components of the restoration.
Stream channel monitoring surveys will be completed annually for five
consecutive years, starting the year following the completion of the project.
8.1.2 Vegetative Monitoring
Sample vegetation monitoring plots of 10-meter by 10-meter dimensions will be
established in the riparian zones for vegetative monitoring (representative of
community types). Seven (7) tree and shrub vegetation plots (five on Reach 1 and
two on Reach 2) and four (4) bank vegetation plots (two on Reach 1 and two on
Reach 2) will be established. All monitoring will occur within these observation
plots throughout the monitoring period as long as they continue to be
representative of the community.
23
During monitoring site visits, an evaluation of invasive or undesirable species will
be performed and recommendations made regarding necessary removal or
treatments.
8.1.3 Biological Monitoring
A
An initial benthic survey (pre-restoration) will be performed during the late fall to
serve as a baseline for future monitoring events. Five monitoring stations will be
established: one immediately upstream of the proposed restoration Reach 1, one
within the proposed restoration Reach 1, one immediately downstream of the
proposed restoration Reach 1, one within the proposed restoration Reach 2, and
one immediately downstream of the proposed restoration Reach 2.
Each monitoring station will typically consist of a riffle-pool sequence. At each
station (or within a station reach) the Qua14 sampling method will be performed.
The Qual 4 (according to NCDENR-DWQ standards) sampling method is used
for 1St and 2nd order streams and consists of-
I Kick Net Sample (from riffle)
1 Sweep Net Sample (from bank)
1 Leaf Pack Sample
1 Visual Observation Sample
Sampling will be performed by professionals with the necessary DWQ
certification credentials. Samples will be preserved in-field. Following collection,
samples will be identified by a certified laboratory. Upon receipt of the identified
sample results, several metrics will be calculated including, but not limited to
Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera, Trichoptera (EPT) number and EPT abundance.

8.2 Monitoring Schedule
As previously described, to ensure a stable restored channel morphology (dimension,
pattern, and profile), and vegetative and biological success, success monitoring will be
conducted annually on site for a period of five (5) years from the implementation of the
restoration plan or until success criteria has been met.
Physical monitoring will occur in the later portion of the monitoring year. In addition to
field survey data, this visit will include a walk-through for the general evaluation (by
observation) of the site and the collection of record photographs.
A plant survivability survey will be performed during the growing season (June to July
timeframe) on each of the tree and shrub vegetation plots and bank vegetation plots.
Benthic macroinvertebrate sampling will be performed during the late fall based on
recommendations from Mr. Larry Eaton of DWQ. Annual Benthic macroinvertebrate
sampling will be performed for the first three (3) years of the monitoring period.
24
Utilizing the same five monitoring stations that were established in the pre-restoration
sample, the Qual 4 sampling method will be performed at each station.
An Annual Monitoring Report will be prepared at the end of each year of monitoring.
This report will be submitted to EEP for review not later than 60 days from the end of the
monitoring period (December 31 of the monitoring year). The monitoring report will
summarize the general site conditions, a channel evaluation, the results of vegetative and
biological monitoring, and recommendations for necessary maintenance.
8.3 Success Criteria
Success criteria for physical stream stability will be met if, for the five-year period after
construction, the stream bed form features and cross-sections remain stable (i.e. the
stream retains its restored Rosgen stream-type classification). During the monitoring
period, no less than two bankfull flow events must be documented. If less than two
bankfull events occur during the 5 year monitoring period, monitoring will continue until
the second bankfull event is documented. The bankfull events must occur during
separate monitoring years.
The success of the adjacent riparian buffer will be based on the combined survival of tree
and shrub species for the five-year monitoring period. Survival of woody (tree and
shrub) species planted within the restored buffers will be at least 320 stems/acre through
year three, 288 stems/acre through year four, 260 stems/acre through year five. The stem
count will be based on an average of the stem counts of the evaluated tree and shrub
' buffer vegetation plots. The success of the bank vegetation plots along the restored
channels will be based on the survival of live-stake (or other) bank plantings for the five-
year monitoring period. Survival of bank plantings will be based on a linear average of
' approximately 50 percent of the planted species within the restoration reaches.
Biological monitoring will be used as a general indicator of restoration success, however,
no specific biological criteria applies to the success of the restoration reaches.

SUBJ: Gray Farm Stream Restoration Project: Concurrence with FWCA, ESA and MBTA
' In October, 2004, the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program (EEP) issued a Request
for Proposal for the restoration of 80,000 Stream Mitigation Units (SMU) in the Catawba River
Basin, Cataloging Unit 03050101. Based on a subsequent proposal prepared and submitted by
' Restoration Systems, LLC (RS) of Raleigh, NC, the EEP awarded a contract to RS to provide
7,610 SMUs at the Gray Farm Restoration Site in Iredell County. Soil & Environmental
' Consultants, PA (S&EC) has been engaged by Restoration Systems, LLC, to provide
environmental consulting and design services necessary to fulfill these contract requirements.
' Under our contract with the EEP, the first task of this project is to conduct an environmental
screening of the proposed restoration site, including the completion of a Categorical Exclusion
(CE) document developed by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) specifically for
' mitigation projects. This document is required by the FHWA to ensure compliance with various
federal environmental laws and regulations. Because the EEP has assumed responsibility for
implementing all of the North Carolina Department of Transportation's (NCDOT) off-site
' mitigation, the EEP is required to comply with FHWA's requirements in order to preserve the
FHWA's ability to reimburse NCDOT for mitigation costs. The CE document requires that we
give the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC) an opportunity to comment

The purpose of this letter is to provide a description of the proposed project, including its
' location, a general explanation of the means and methods proposed for the stream restoration,
and to provide the NCWRC an opportunity to provide comments on the project.
' Project Location & Description
The subject property is located approximately ten miles due west of the city of Statesville, in
western Iredell County, NC. The site consists of approximately 20 acres currently owned by Mr.
Reid Gray (wife and sons) divided into two tracts on which stream and riparian buffer restoration

is proposed. These two individual reaches (collectively referred to as the project) are located
' approximately 6,500 feet apart and are depicted on the attached USGS 7.5 minute Topographic
Quadrangle (Stony Point).
' The first, and longer, reach (Reach 1) is a second order stream, which will provide approximately
5,450 linear feet of restoration. The second reach (Reach 2) is a first order stream that will
provide approximately 2,160 linear feet of restoration. Both reaches have been channelized and,
' in their impaired state, are characterized by overly steep, undercut, and actively eroding banks.
Numerous trees of large diameter line the banks of both channels, many of which are undercut,
suspended or have collapsed into the stream. Significant portions of both reaches possess little
' or no vegetated buffer. Both channels are incised due to downcutting and in many locations
embankments have eroded, resulting in excess water storage within the channel confines. Based
on preliminary evaluations, both sites present viable ecological potential.
Restoration Means & Methods
' The designs for both reaches will be based on recognized natural channel design principles and
techniques utilizing appropriate reference reach data and the existing channel conditions survey
' data. These methods, developed by Dr. Dave Rosgen, are internationally recognized as the
current standard in stream restoration and regularly applied across the State of North Carolina.
Reference data to be utilized in the design includes the use of local reference reaches, data from
' North Carolina Rural Piedmont Regional Curve (SRI 2000), and other available sources. Each
reference reach selected will be for the appropriate valley type and land-foam. This approach is
used to develop the appropriate dimension, pattern, and profile that naturally occur in a stable
' channel in the appropriate physiographic region of North Carolina. Final design will include the
evaluation of sediment transport requirements to produce a stable stream in dynamic equilibrium.
' Given their current cross-sections, neither channel contributes much overbank flooding to the
adjacent floodplains. The proposed stream design will establish a naturally meandering stream
channel at a more appropriate elevation and location based on the site conditions. Where
' possible, the restoration will allow a reconnection of the stream channel with the adjacent
historic floodplain (Priority I Restoration). However, due to the incised state of a significant
portion of both of the impaired reaches, construction of a new floodplain or bankfull bench at a
' lower elevation (relative to the historic or existing floodplain) may be necessary (Priority II
Restoration). The restoration design will result in a riffle-pool system with proper pattern and
profile. Meanders of varying radii will be integrated along the length of the restored reaches to
' mimic the variability of a natural channel and utilize the available project area to the maximum
extent possible based on existing site conditions.
' In order to provide grade control for the restored reach, rock and log cross-vanes and J-hooks
(with or without steps), will be integrated into the design and will be utilized to reinforce and
' stabilize the proposed channel. These structures will serve as grade control within the bed of the
channel and reduce the potential of headcutting, create a stable width/depth ratio, and improve
natural sediment transport function. All structures will be constricted from natural materials,
' typically consisting of local boulders and/or hardwood logs.
Page 3

The restored channel banks will be planted with bare-root seedlings of native vegetation that
represents both woody (trees and shrubs) and herbaceous species. Where possible, transplanting
of woody vegetation from on-site including root wads will be perfonned to assist in the
stabilization of meander bends. Erosion control matting (coir fiber matting), temporary seeding,
and live tree stakes will be utilized to reduce bank erosion immediately following?completion of
the channel and provide bank stabilization. Species selection will be based on a survey of the
vegetation from the reference reach and from less impaired sections of the stream being restored
or from reference literature that details native species.
Restoration of a suitable riparian buffer will enhance the recovery and protection of the restored
stream reaches. A protected buffer (minimum of 50 feet) will be restored on both sides of the
channel restoration reaches. The wooded corridors that will be established as part of this
restoration will also increase the vertical and horizontal structure perpendicular to the channel
along the reaches helping to increase species composition and abundance. Additionally, the
presence of a wooded buffer parallel to the channel not only increases in-stream habitat quality
by cooling water and increasing oxygen content, it also provides cover, travel corridors, and
access to adjacent natural areas for upland and avian species. Where necessary, the stream buffer
will be protected from livestock by fences.
Summary
It is our opinion that the proposed restoration will not result in detrimental impacts to area fish
and wildlife. While unavoidable short-term impacts to both stream channels will occur during
the implementation of the restoration, the long term implications of the :mitigation to fish and
wildlife are very positive. In fact, the exclusion of degrading influences from the riparian
corridor through the stabilization of eroding channel banks, the restoration of a wooded buffer,
the fencing of grazing animals, and easement restrictions will further benefit and ensure long-
term success of the restored ecosystem.
The ecological benefits that result from this projects' implementation will help achieve the
specific goals including; improvement of water quality within the subject channels and the
downstream receiving waters, improve aquatic and benthic macroinvertebrate habitat, and
riparian habitat improvement (increased cover, forage, and travel routes for a variety of
mammalian, reptilian, amphibian and avian species).

RE: Proposed Gray Farm Stream Restoration Project, Unnamed Tributaries Buffalo Shoals Creek, Iredell
County
Dear Mr. Turner:
This correspondence is in response to Mr. John Preyer's letter of August 19, 2005 concerning the referenced project.
Biologists with the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC) are familiar with habitat values in
the area. The NCWRC is authorized to comment and make recommendations which relate to the impacts of this
project on fish and wildlife pursuant to Clean Water Act (CWA) of 1977, North Carolina Environmental Policy Act,
US National Environmental Policy Act, Endangered Species Act (16 U. S. C. 1531-1543; 87 Stat 884), the Fish and
Wildlife Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661-667d) and/or Federal License of Water
Resource Project Act (Federal Power Act-16 U.S.C. 791a et seq.) as applicable.
The project proposed by Restoration Systems, LLC is to restore two (2) reaches of unnamed tributaries of Buffalo
Shoals Creek using state-of-the-art natural channel design techniques.
Based on our in office review for animal species, we have determined that the Seep mudalia, Leptoxis dilatata
(NCT) has been known for nearby Elk Shoal Creek. Accordingly, prior to any restoration planning, permitting and
construction activities, we recommend that a professional mussel survey be accomplished to determine if the species
is present. Should the species be found, appropriate precautions should be provided during the CWA permitting and
construction phases of the project.
Please be advised that this letter is not a project concurrence nor does it indicate that restoration activities are
warranted for these stream reaches. Documentation about existing conditions, including photographs, should be
provided during Clean Water Act permitting process and any mitigation credit approvals.
Thank you for the opportunity to comment during the early planning stages of this project. If you have any
questions regarding these comments, please contact me at 336/769-9453.

REF: Gray Farm Stream Restoration Project: Your August 25, 2005 Letter
Thank you for your timely and thoughtful response to my August 19 coordination letter.
Restoration Systems will always be very interested in input from resource agencies concerning
important and often rare species. We work very hard to develop projects that will produce the
most benefit to the environment and we think we have been very successful in that regard.
The process of building project budgets always takes into account the potential need to fund in
situ investigations on behalf of federally listed and certain state-listed species such as rare
freshwater mussels. It is important to point out that when we estimated our budget for this
project we searched the N.C. Natural Heritage Program element occurrence database and did not
find any records for the seep mudalia (Leptoxis dilatata) in either Iredell or Catawba Counties.
Our biologists and those of our consultants rely heavily on data sets provided by agencies such as
the Natural Heritage Program. We invest considerable sums of money on surveys for aquatic
invertebrates and have often engaged the services of Tim Savidge and The Catena Group when
such special needs develop.
The opportunity to make a significant contribution to an ecosystem, or a population, often
depends on responsible allocation of our available resources to ensure that we deliver the
`biggest bang for the buck'. While we may wish to do so, we simply cannot afford to survey for
all rare species, so we make hard choices about which species are most deserving of such efforts.
I hope you understand that our financial constraints are balanced against the tasks we must
perform and the tasks we would like to perform. Accordingly, we will not be performing a
survey for the seep mudalia for this project.
Thanks again for quickly responding to our inquiry and thank you also for your commitments on
behalf of the state's special resources.

Endangered Species Act (ESA) Findings
¦ A review of element occurrence records for Iredell County at the North Carolina Natural
Heritage Program (NCNHP) was undertaken for both Federal and State protected species for the
project site. In addition, the Service is custodian of a county by county listing of known or
potential distribution of listed species throughout the state. The Iredell County list was reviewed
to determine which federally protected species are most likely-to occur in the vicinity of the Gray
' Farm project area. The only species listed by the Service for Iredell County is the bog turtle
(Clemmys muhlenbergii), which is assigned the status of T (S/A). This category denotes a
species that is threatened due to similarity of appearance with other rare species and is listed for
the latter species' protection. Species designated T (S/A) are not biologically endangered or
threatened and are not subject to Section 7 consultation.
' In addition to those species that are afforded protection under the ESA, three other species are
identified by the Service as Federal Species of Concern for Iredell County.
' These species include:
• Alleghany woodrat (Neotoma magister)
• Heller's trefoil (Lotus helleri)
' e Tall larkspur (Delphinium exaltatum)
' Page 4
August 19, 2005
' Brian Cole, FWS
Note: A Federal species of concern is a species that may or may not be listed in the future
' (formerly C2 candidate species or species under consideration for listing for which there is
insufficient information to support listing).
Based on the absence of element occurrences in Iredell County for currently listed species, it is
reasonable to conclude that the proposed mitigation project will have No Effect on species
afforded protection by the ESA.
' Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (FWCA)
' Because this project will modify two existing water bodies (both first or second order streams),
compliance with the FWCA is required. The implementation methods proposed in this
restoration effort will result in numerous ecological benefits along project stream reaches, the
' surrounding environment, and riparian habitats upstream and downstream of the project. The
implementation of the project will result in the development of a stable natural stream channel
within a contiguous, fully vegetated and protected riparian corridor. Restoration of natural
channel geometry and structure will not only improve water quality and habitat within the
immediate channel environment but also in the downstream channels as well. The establishment
of wooded buffers along the restored reaches will serve to filter runoff from adjacent pollutant
sources (fertilizer, pesticides, animal wastes) and provide increased habitat structural diversity.
These corridors will provide increased stream shading, cover, and forage environments as well as
travel routes for various wildlife species. These efforts may one day provide suitable habitat for
rare species' dispersal from adjacent counties, particularly those which currently inhabit other
' portions of the Catawba River watershed. For these reasons, the proposed restoration will not
result in a detrimental impact on area fish and wildlife. In fact the stabilization of eroding
channel banks, the restoration of a wooded buffer, the exclusion of grazing domestic animals,
' and easement restrictions will further benefit and ensure long-term success of the restored
ecosystem.
' The ecological benefits that result from this projects' implementation will help achieve our
specific goals including improvement of water quality within the subject channels and the
downstream receiving waters, improvement of aquatic and benthic macroinvertebrate habitat,
' and overall restoration of riparian habitats, as well as increased cover, forage, and travel routes
for a variety of mammalian, reptilian, amphibian and avian species.
' Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA)
In their current condition, both project reaches and their degraded buffers offer only limited
' attraction to resident and migratory species of birds. The current schedule calls for this project to
be constructed between January 2006 and May 2006. Once completed, this project will likely
provide a substantial habitat improvement for birds, including migratory and non-migratory
species. While the major focus of the MBTA is directed at preventing abuses to birds and their
habitat in signatory countries that lie along the migratory routes of targeted species, efforts to
' provide suitable wintering, or summering habitats for migrating birds should be viewed as
0
Page 5
August 19, 2005
Brian Cole, FWS
complimentary to the spirit of the MBTA. Clearly, an effort to restore functionality and habitat
diversity to important watershed areas must be viewed as a plus to most wildlife species,
including migratory birds.
Summary
It is our opinion that the proposed restoration will not result in detrimental impacts to area fish
and wildlife. While unavoidable short-term impacts to both stream channels will occur during
the implementation of the restoration, the long term implications of the mitigation to fish and

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Soil & Environmental Consultants, PA (S&EC) has completed a Phase I
Environmental Assessment (EA) for two undeveloped tracts of land in western
Iredell County, N. C. within the Sharon Community. These two tracts are
associated with stream segments of two unnamed tributaries to Buffalo Shoals
Creek. Each segment includes the actual stream channel itself and a strip of land
on each side. The two stream segments are hereafter referenced as Reach #1
which contains approximately 17.3 acres, Reach #2 which contains approximately
4.7 acres, and collectively as the subject property. They are associated with a
stream restoration project being undertaken by Restorations Systems, LLC, under
the provisions of Section 5 of the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement
Program request for proposal document. On the date of inspection, there were no
standing buildings on the subject property nor did S&EC did not note any
evidence of past buildings. All of the land included in the subject property is
cropland, pastureland, or woodland.
S&EC was requested to perform this study by Mr. John Preyer of Restoration
Systems, LLC, in connection with obtaining of an easement from the existing
property owners and the proposed restoration of the two stream channel
segments. This report summarizes the results of the EA and has been prepared for
their use. Other entities directly involved with approvals (i.e. permits, funding,
regulatory approval) may also rely on it. Reliance by all others is expressly denied
without the written consent of S&EC.
S&EC completed the EA using standard techniques and practices for this type of
study including a review of State and Federal environmental agency files and
databases, a review of the property's past land use history, an on-site
reconnaissance of the property, and interviews with State and Federal
environmental agency officials and others as needed. Some limited information
on the ownership history of the property was available for review, however S&EC
did not complete a 50-year past ownership review on the entire tract of land as is
typically done during a Phase I EA. An attempt was made to obtain Sanborn
maps of the subject property, but they were not available for this area.
S&EC identified no previously unknown or previously recorded environmental
contamination problems on the subject property during this study. No existing or
potential future problems were noted during the field reconnaissance. S&EC has
no recommendations for further studies or investigations relative to the
environmental condition of the subject property or potential environmental
contamination/ liability problems related to the subject property at this time.
This statement is based on and subject to the scope of work for this study as
described in this report. There are limitations on this study relative to the normal
standards for a Phase I Environmental Assessment. The reader of this report
should consider those limitations prior to accepting findings or recommendations
of S&EC on the environmental condition of this tract of land.
S&EC would like to note one feature relative to this property that will be of
interest to parties relying on this report. It does not represent an environmental
contamination problem, however it should be taken into account during the
planning and design for this project. Care will be required during the
construction phase as well. That item of interest is discussed briefly as follows:
TURISDICTIONAL WETLANDS/ WATERS OF THE U.S. - Based on other work
on this site and the field reconnaissance portion of this study, S&EC has
determined there are areas of jurisdictional "wetlands / waters of the U.S."
located on this property. They occur in the former pond bed on Reach 2 and in the
existing pond on Reach 1. This project is designed to restore the stream channel
segments in question therefore there should be little or no impact to jurisdictional
' areas. Jurisdictional areas will however need to be carefully considered during
' construction so as to avoid any negative impacts. S&EC will be glad to provide
assistance as needed in this effort.
A
The EA was designed and performed as a screening tool to identify "red flags" that
indicate the potential for present or future environmental problems/ liabilities.
Limitations relative to this study include a limited review and analysis of the past
ownership history of the property, and a lack of discussions with present or past
owners of the property. The reader/user of this report is cautioned to recognize
the purpose, scope, and limitations of the Phase I study and to make appropriate
use of this report.

I Re: Gray Farm Project - Site Soils Evaluation
Iredell County, NC
On July 28, 2005, Soil & Environmental Consultants, PA (S&EC) performed a limited
soil evaluation at the site referenced above. The basis of this report is to characterize
each restoration site and determine the general soil series that exist. Reach 1 & 2 were
evaluated in the field with hand auger soil borings and S&EC observed landforms (slope,
drainage patterns, past use, etc.) as well as soil conditions (depth, texture, structure,
seasonal wetness, restrictive horizons, etc.).
Reach 1 Soils
' Most of Reach 1 is located in a low, gently rolling to level floodplain area with a gradual
transition to adjacent uplands. The floodplain soils in Reach 1 are similar to the
Chewacla soil series (TAXONOMIC CLASS: Fine-loamy, mixed, active, thermic
' Fluvaquentic Dystrudepts). The Chewacla soil series has a loam surface material over a
clay loam subsoil. They formed from alluvium sediments in level to low landscape areas.
This soil is somewhat poorly drained with medium internal drainage. They have a
moderate permeability rate and there is a seasonal high water table within four feet of the
' land surface. S&EC noted a seasonal high water table at 12 to 18 inches below land
surface.
' The upland soils at Reach 1 are similar to the Pacolet and Cecil soil series
(TAXONOMIC CLASS: Fine, kaolinitic, thermic Typic Kanhapludults). The Pacolet
and Cecil soil series have a sandy loam to loam surface material over a clay subsoil.
They are deep to saprolite and very deep to bedrock. They formed in residuum weathered
from felsic, igneous and high-grade metamorphic rocks of the Piedmont uplands. These
soils are well drained with medium to rapid runoff and medium internal drainage. They
have a moderate permeability rate and there is not a seasonal high water table within four
feet of the land surface.

Reach 2 Soils

Based on several hand auger soil borings, most of Reach 2 is located in Piedmont uplands
with moderately rolling landscapes with a gradual transition to a floodplain area adjacent
to a small creek. The lower floodplain portion of Reach 2 is a former pond bed. The
upland soils at this site are similar to the Cecil soil series. The Cecil soil series has a
sandy loam surface material over a clay to sandy clay loam subsoil. They are deep to
saprolite and very deep to bedrock. They formed in residuum weathered from felsic,
igneous and high-grade metamorphic rocks of the Piedmont uplands. This soil is well
drained with medium to rapid runoff and medium internal drainage. They have a
moderate permeability rate and there is not a seasonal high water table within four feet of
the land surface.
The lower portion of Reach 2 is similar to the Wehadkee soil series (TAXONOMIC
CLASS: Fine-loamy, mixed, active, nonacid, thermic Fluvaquentic Endoaquepts). The
Wehadkee soil series has a loam surface material over a sandy clay loam subsoil. This
soil is poorly drained and the runoff is very slow and the permeability is moderate. They
formed from alluvium sediments in level to low landscape areas and there is a seasonal
high water table within four feet of the land surface. S&EC noted a seasonal high water
table at 6 inches below land surface.

7.6 IN-STREAM STRUCTURES
The work covered by this section consists of the construction of in-
stream structures including rock cross vanes (with or without rock
steps) and rock or log j-hooks (with or without rock steps).
The quantity of in-stream structures to be constructed will be affected
by actual conditions that occur during the construction of the project.
The type and quantity of structures may be increased or decreased at
the direction of the Engineer. Such variations in quantity will not be
considered as alterations in the details of construction or a change of
character of the work.
A tracked hydraulic excavator with a thumb of sufficient size to move
specified boulders is required for this item. Precise placement of
structures will be determined during construction by the Engineer and
may not reflect the construction drawings. In-stream structures
installed must be inspected and approved by the Engineer. Excavation
for the purpose of installing structures is incidental and is covered by
this line item.
The excavation of the subgrade and installation of the structure will be
consecutive and continuous. Once the installation procedure has
initiated it will be completed before the end of the workday. Any
incidental/accidental discharge of sediment accumulation as a result of
the installation procedure will be removed or integrated into the
designed bedform. Excavation shall terminate at bedrock if contacted
prior to the design grade. Bedrock will be excavated only if it is
determined to be rippable and necessary by the Engineer.
Grade area where structures are to be constructed. Surface shall be free
of obstructions, debris, and pockets of soft or low density material.
Unless otherwise directed by the Engineer, the stone shall be placed on
the slope and/or angle as indicated on the plans. The stone shall be
graded so that the smaller stones are uniformly distributed throughout
the mass. The Contractor may place the stone by mechanical methods,
augmented by hand placing where necessary, provided that when the
rip rap is completed, it forms a properly graded, dense, neat layer of
stone. Drop height shall be not more than one foot.
Place rock cross vanes and j-hooks (and rock sections of log j-hook) as
shown in Drawings. Footer rocks shall be installed to define shape of
in-stream rock structures, and the arms of in-stream log j-hooks.
Footer rocks shall be installed such that their long dimension is
oriented in the direction of flow. No gaps shall be left between footer
rocks. Minimum footer rock depth below the proposed ground surface
of the stream bed shall be 4 feet. Rock sills shall extend a minimum of
3 feet beyond bankfull (perpendicular to stream flow) as indicated on
plans. Geotextile shall be placed over structures and backfilled with
aggregate as shown on plans.
Log vanes shall be placed on top of footer rocks along an anchor log as
shown on plans. The upstream end of the log shall be buried and
pinned between a boulder and a footer rock. Geotextile shall be nailed
to the upstream side of the log and backfilled with aggregate as shown
on plans.
7.7 CHANNEL PROTECTIVE LININGS

stream. The matting shall be laid smooth and free from tension, stress,
folds, wrinkles or creases. Horizontal overlaps shall be a minimum of
12 inches with the upper matting overlapping the lower matting.
Vertical overlaps in matting shall be a minimum of 12 inches with the
upstream matting overlapping the downstream matting.
The top (crest) edge of the matting shall be anchored in trench at least
12 inches deep as shown on plans to prevent undercutting of the
matting. Trench should be located a minimum of 24 inches from the
top of bank, and shall not alter channel or floodplain grade. Matting
trench and Eco-Stakes® shall be installed as shown on plans. Matting
shall be anchored utilizing Eco-stake® brand stakes installed not more
than 3 feet apart (3' on centers) and staggered, with a minimum of 3
stakes per square yard of matting over the entire lined area. 24-inch
Eco-stakes® shall be used along the toe of the channel and 12-inch
stakes shall be used within the field and top edge of the matting as
detailed on the construction plans. Along all laps (both vertical and
horizontal) in the matting, install a common row of staples at the seam,

If topsoil is used, it should be spread to a uniform depth of four to six
inches and bonded to the subsoil by loosening with a disc, harrow, or
chisel plow. Areas where seeding will occur on exposed finished grade
shall be disked or harrowed to ensure soil aeration and to increase the
surface roughness prior to planting.
Apply lime and fertilizer evenly across seedbed and work into the top
4-6 inches of soil by discing or other suitable means. Operate
machinery on the contour.
Rework the surface if soil becomes compacted or crusted prior to
seeding. Complete seedbed preparation by breaking up large clods and
raking into a smooth, uniform surface. Fill in or level depressions that
can collect water.
9.6 SEEDING
Apply permanent seeding to seedbed after preparation is complete. Use
certified seed for permanent seeding whenever possible. Certified seed
is inspected by the North Carolina Crop Improvement Association. It
meets published North Carolina Standards and should bear an official

Gray Farm Project Stream Restoration
Page 17
Technical Specifications
December 2005

appropriately sized pumps to convey the diversion of water flow away
from the work area without creating a flood hazard or scour. The
Contractor is responsible for determining (based on the direction of the
Engineer) the location of coffer dams, pumps, discharge hose route,
stilling basins, splash pads, and period of operation prior to the
initiation of any pumping. An attempt will be made to complete all
grading, channel shaping, in-stream structure construction, and
stabilization for each section within one day. If work for any particular
section cannot be completed in one day, a 24-hour pumping operation
will be set up and maintained to facilitate the construction schedule.

Bypass Pump
The pump used to convey the stream flow around the work area during
construction should be capable of pumping and discharging an
estimated 410 gallons per minute for Reach 1 and 40 gallons per
minute for Reach 2. The Contractor is responsible for selecting a
properly sized pump. This unit should be a silent and self-priming
model with a self-contained fuel tank large enough to facilitate a 24-
hour pumping operation. The pump should also be matched with the
necessary footage of flexible or ductile hose and appropriately sized
fittings.
Dewaterin Pump
A second pump shall be used to dewater the work area between the
dams (with Temporary Sediment Basin). The pump must be of
sufficient size to dewater the work area and pump that water from the
bottom of the work area to the special stilling basin. The pump should
be matched with the necessary footage of hose and the required fittings.
Special Stilling Basin
' The special stilling basins are covered in detail under the "Special
Stilling Basins" section below.
Temporary Splash Pad
A temporary splash pad shall be used to dissipate energy from the
discharge from the bypass pump. Alternatively, check dams may be
modified and used for this purpose as determined by the Engineer.
The temporary splash pads are covered in detail under the "Temporary
Splash Pads" section below.
10.13 SPECIAL STILLING BASINS

The work covered by this section consists of furnishing, placing, and
removing special stilling basins as directed by the plans and the
Engineer. The special stilling basins shall be used to filter pumped
water during construction. The quantity of special stilling basins may
be increased, decreased, or eliminated entirely at the direction of the
Engineer. Such variations in quantity will not be considered as
alterations in the details of construction or a change in the character of
work.
The special stilling basins shall be a water permeable fabric bag that
traps sand, silt, and fines from the sediment laden water entering. The
filter fabric shall meet the requirements of Section 1056 for Type 2
Fabric.
The special stilling basin shall be a bag constructed to a minimum size
of 10' X 15' made from nonwoven fabric. There shall be a sewn-in 8
inch spout for receiving pump discharge. The bag seam shall be sewn
with a double needle machine using a high strength thread. The seams
shall have a minimum width strength of 60 lb/in (ASTM D-4884).
The fabric used to construct the bag shall be stabilized to provide
resistance to ultra-violet degradation and meet the following
specifications for flow rates, strength, and permeability:
Weight 8 oz/yd (ASTM D-3776)
Grab Tensile 200 lb (ASTM D-4632)
Puncture 130 lb (ASTM D-4833)
Flow Rate 80 gpm/sf (ASTM D-4491)
Permittivity 1.51/sec (ASTM D-4991)
UV Resistance 70 % (ASTM D-4355)
The special stilling basins shall be placed so the incoming water flows
through the bag without causing erosion. The bag will rest on
Nonwoven Type 2 filter fabric. The contractor will grade the bed to
ensure that the filtered water exits at the desired location. The exit
location shall be chosen to prevent erosion. The neck or spout of the
bag shall be tied tightly to prevent water from exiting the bag without
passing through the walls. The special stilling basin shall be disposed
of and replaced when it is % full of sediment, becomes torn or
punctured, or is unable to filter sediment at a reasonable flow rate.
Approval from Engineer must be received prior to removal and
replacement of special stilling basins. Contractor is responsible for
providing the necessary quantity of special stilling basins for the
duration of the project.
10.14 TEMPORARY SPLASH PADS
Non-woven geotextile shall be placed under entire pump around outlet
splash pad. The placement surface shall be free of obstructions, debris,
and pockets of soft or low density material. The fabric shall be laid
smooth and free from tension, stress, folds, wrinkles or creases.
Horizontal overlaps shall be a minimum of 12 inches with the upper
fabric overlapping the lower fabric. Vertical overlaps in fabric shall be
a minimum of 18 inches with the upstream fabric overlapping the
downstream fabric. Outer edges of fabric shall be anchored in trench at
least one foot deep. No more than 72 hours shall elapse from the time
the fabric is unwrapped to the time it is covered with #57 stone. In the
event that the fabric is displaced or damaged during the placement of
rip rap, the rip rap shall be removed and the fabric repositioned or
replaced prior to the placement of the rip rap. This will occur at no
additional cost to the Owner.
Erosion Control Stone shall be placed over cushion layer to depth
indicated on the plans. The completed rip rap shall be at least the
thickness indicated on the plans. Drop height shall be not more than
two feet.
Unless otherwise directed by the Engineer, the stone shall be placed as
indicated on the plans. The stone shall be graded so that the smaller
stones are uniformly distributed throughout the mass. The Contractor
may place the stone by mechanical methods, augmented by hand
placing where necessary, provided that when the rip rap is completed it
forms a properly graded, dense, neat layer of stone.
Each outlet splash pad shall be installed such that the downstream end
of the apron provides a smooth transition to the existing grade or
channel bed.
10.15 TEMPORARY SEEDING
The Contractor shall provide all labor, materials, tools, and other items
necessary to provide temporary seeding in accordance with State and
local Standards.
S&EC Project No. 9385.D1 Page 18 Technical Specifications

ATTENTION: Amanda Jones, Regulatory Project Manager
SUBJ: Application for Nationwide 27 for the Restoration of Approximately 7,600 Linear
Feet of Degraded Stream Channel in Catawba River Cataloguing Unit 03050101;
Iredell County
Restoration Systems, LLC (RS) is pleased to submit a pre-construction
notification (PCN) for proposed stream restoration activities at two unnamed tributaries
to Buffalo Shoals Creek located in northwest Iredell County. These stream reaches have
been severely degraded over the years due to agricultural practices. This full delivery
project was proposed by RS to address stream restoration needs identified in the Catawba
River Basin (CU 03050101) by the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program
(NCEEP). RS has been awarded a contract by the NCEEP to implement the subject
stream restoration. Planning and design work are complete and we are in pursuit of
regulatory approvals.
Five copies of this application and its attachments/enclosures are being provided to the
Division of Water Quality (DWQ). A separate application package including Erosion &
Sedimentation Control plans is being sent to the North Carolina Division of Land
Quality.
In addition to half-size (11" X 17") construction plan sheets and technical specifications,
this application package contains a copy of the Federal Highway Administration
(FHWA)-approved Categorical Exclusion (CE) Action Classification Form, the Amended
Stream Restoration Plan, the conservation easement and survey (see insert in Restoration
Plan). Please note that Section 7 (ESA) and Section 106 (NHPA) issues were fully
addressed in the Feasibility Study as indicated by the approval of the CE by the FHWA.
In summary, no suitable habitat for listed species is located within the project area and no
historic properties are listed for the project area by the State Historic Preservation Office.

VII. Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization)
Specifically describe measures taken to avoid the proposed impacts. It may be useful to provide
information related to site constraints such as topography, building ordinances, accessibility, and
financial viability of the project. The applicant may attach drawings of alternative, lower-impact site
layouts, and explain why these design options were not feasible. Also discuss how impacts were
Page 5 of 9
4
minimized once the desired site plan was developed. If applicable, discuss construction techniques to be
followed during construction to reduce impacts. In order to reestablish a stable stream channel
configuration, including appropriate pattern, profile and dimension it was not possible to avoid
impacts to the existing stream channels. The steep and narrow natural valley profiles precluded
parallel construction. Efforts to minimize impacts to the adjacent buffer areas include identifying
and saving large diameter trees lying adjacent to the channel. In an attempt to offsite some of the
unavoidable impacts, wetland pockets will be created as indicated on the plans.
VIII. Mitigation
DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0500, mitigation may be required by the NC
Division of Water Quality for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to
freshwater wetlands or greater than or equal to 150 linear feet of total impacts to perennial
streams.
USACE - In accordance with the Final Notice of Issuance and Modification of Nationwide
Pennits, published in the Federal Register on January 15, 2002, mitigation will be required when
necessary to ensure that adverse effects to the aquatic environment are minimal. Factors
including size and type of proposed impact and function and relative value of the impacted
aquatic resource will be considered in determining acceptability of appropriate and practicable
mitigation as proposed. Examples of mitigation that may be appropriate and practicable include,
but are not limited to: reducing the size of the project; establishing and maintaining wetland
and/or upland vegetated buffers to protect open waters such as streams; and replacing losses of
aquatic resource functions and values by creating, restoring, enhancing, or preserving similar
functions and values, preferable in the same watershed.
If mitigation is required for this project, a copy of the mitigation plan must be attached in order
for USACE or DWQ to consider the application complete for processing. Any application
lacking a required mitigation plan or NCEEP concurrence shall be placed on hold as incomplete.
An applicant may also choose to review the current guidelines for stream restoration in DWQ's
Draft Technical Guide for Stream Work in North Carolina, available at
http://h2o.enr.state.ne.us/ncwetlaiids/sti-i-ngide.htmi.
1. Provide a brief description of the proposed mitigation plan. The description should provide
as much information as possible, including, but not limited to: site location (attach directions
and/or map, if offsite), affected stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet)
of mitigation proposed (restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan view,
preservation mechanism (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation easement, etc.), and a
description of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach
a separate sheet if more space is needed.
The proposed stream restoration in the Catawba River Basin CU 03050101 includes
the use of natural channel design methods to restore impaired stream systems by
constructing new channels including the use of J-hooks and cross vanes. Planting of live
stakes will occur along the banks and bare root seedlings of native vegetative species
will be planted within the 50-foot buffer which will run the entire length of the
restoration. Please see the included plan sheets for additional details, including
location.
