Ross Jr., Secretary North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources ( Alan W. Klimek, P.E. Director Division of Water Quality .?- 4 TO: John Dorney .? FROM: Amanda Mueller SUBJECT: Bishop Property Restoration Plan, Anson County, North Carolina (DWQ# 05-0377 DATE: May 9, 2005\x' Upon review of the wetlands portion of the, "Bishop Property Restoration Plan, Anson County, North Carolina (DWQ# 05-0377) September 2004" document, several questions or concerns arose. 1. When a restoration project is approved by DWQ and is accepted by EEP, does DWQ need to receive and review yearly monitoring reports or are they reviewed solely by EEP? 2. If a restoration project is done for EEP, do credit release schedules need to be established similar to mitigation bank sites? 3. Are Ford construction areas allowed as part of a restoration project and credit? c 4. It is unclear to me whether they are asking for restoration credit for the backwater slough wetland area and the braided channel that runs through it, or just for the slough wetland area. If they are asking for credit for the backwater slough (wetland) and the braided channel is that acceptable to receive credit for both. 5. Vegetation monitoring is discussed but no success criteria are stated (p. 35-36). Success criteria for wetland and streams, herbaceous and trees must be stated in the restoration plan. 6. It is unclear, but there appears to be a new, restored stream segment draining from the wetland on the UT to Camp Branch to Camp Branch. Is it possible that this additional stream segment could have a negative impact on the hydrology of the wetland? 7. A portion of Dula Thoroughfare passes through an outparcel area (Fig.2). Does this in any way affect the positive aspect of the restoration, enhancement, or preservation of the adjacent stream sections? Please do not hesitate to contact me if you need any further assistance or clarification. 401 Oversight/Express Review Permits Unit 1650 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1650 2321 Crabtree Boulevard, Suite 250, Raleigh, North Carolina 27604 Phone: 919-733-1786 / FAX 919-733-6893 / Internet: httn://h2o.enr.state.ne.us/newetlands f N Carolina Natura!!y i Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer- 50% Recycled/10% Post Consumer Paper BISHOP PROPERTY RESTORATION PLAN ANSON COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA 050,9 , North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program Raleigh, North Carolina Ecosystem E _., PROGRAM Prepared by: .i i EcoScience Corporation 1101 Haynes Street, Suite 101 Raleigh, North Carolina 27604 o jj September 2004 FEB 5 705 DENR - VYA b'?

The Bishop Property consists of three parcels, owned by Mr. John Bishop, collectively ' encompassing approximately 900 acres of land. The proposed restoration area, including approximately 195 acres within the three parcels, has been placed under a conservation easement and will hereafter be referred to as the Site (Figure 2). The Site is located at the confluence of the Rocky River and the Pee Dee River, immediately ' upstream from the approximately 8,000-acre Pee Dee National Wildlife Refuge. In the Site vicinity, the Rocky and Pee Dee River floodplains have largely been cleared of forest vegetation and are currently utilized as fertile pasture, hay fields, or agricultural fields (row crop ' production). The Site has potential to serve as an important wildlife corridor along two major waterways extending to the Pee Dee National Wildlife Refuge. ' The Site is primarily utilized for row crop production and recreational activities (hunting and wildlife viewing). Removal of riparian vegetation, dredging/straightening of on-Site streams, annual clearing, plowing, and additions of nutrient fertilizers appear to have resulted in ' degraded water quality (sediment inputs and agricultural runoff into the Rocky and Pee Dee Rivers), unstable channel characteristics (stream entrenchment, erosion, and bank collapse), and decreased wetland function. 1 C 1 The purpose of this study is to establish stream and wetland enhancement/restoration concepts which will result in benefits to water quality and wildlife by providing stable streams and wetlands within a wildlife corridor located adjacent to two major waterways and an important wildlife refuge. This detailed restoration plan is expected to outline activities to be included in construction planning documents. The objectives of this study include the following: • Classify the on-Site streams based on fluvial geomorphic principles. • Identify jurisdictional wetlands and/or hydric soils within the Site boundaries. • Identify a suitable reference forest, stream, and wetland to model Site restoration attributes. • Develop a detailed plan of stream and wetland enhancement/restoration activities within the Site. • Establish success criteria and a method of monitoring the Site upon completion of restoration implementation. After implementation, restoration activities are expected to provide the following: Project 02-113.34 1 Bishop Property I . 5,663 linear feet of stream restoration 2. 1,190 linear feet of stream enhancement - level 1 3. 7,306 linear feet of stream enhancement - level 2 4. 11,250 linear feet of stream preservation 5. 5.6 acres of wetland restoration 6. 0.9 acres of wetland enhancement 7. 10.2 acres of wetland preservation This document represents a detailed restoration plan summarizing activities proposed within the Site. The plan includes 1) descriptions of existing conditions; 2) reference stream, wetland, and forest studies; 3) restoration/enhancement plans; and 4) Site monitoring and success criteria. Upon approval of this plan by regulatory agencies, engineering construction plans will be prepared and activities implemented as outlined. Proposed restoration activities may be modified during the civil design stage due to constraints such as access issues, sediment- erosion control measures, drainage needs (floodway constraints), or other design considerations. Project 02-113.34 2 Bishop Property 2.0 METHODS 1 Natural resource information was obtained from available sources. United States Geological Survey (USGS) 7.5-minute topographic quadrangle (Millstone Lake, NC), United States Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) mapping, Natural Resource Conservation Service (NRCS) soils mapping for Anson County (NRCS 2000), and recent Anson County aerial photography were utilized to evaluate existing landscape, stream, and soil information prior to on-Site inspection. Reference stream geometry methods have been used to orient channel reconstruction design. Reference stream and floodplain systems were identified and measured in the field to quantify stream geometry, substrate, and hydrodynamics. Stream characteristics and detailed restoration plans were developed according to constructs outlined in Rosgen (1996), Dunne and Leopold (1978), Harrelson et al. (1994), Chang (1988), and State of North Carolina Interagency Stream Mitigation Guidelines (USACE et al. 2003). Stream pattern, dimension, and profile under stable environmental conditions were measured along reference (i.e. relatively undisturbed) stream reaches and applied to the degraded channel within the Site. Reconstructed stream channels and hydraulic geometry relationships have been designed to mimic stable channels identified and evaluated in the region. Files at the North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NHP) were evaluated for the presence of protected species. Characteristic and target natural plant community patterns were classified according to Schafale and Weakley's, Classification of the Natural Communities of North Carolina (1990). Plant communities were delineated and described by structure and composition. Detailed field investigations were performed between September 2003 and May 2004 including generation of Site channel cross-sections, profiles, and plan-views; valley cross-sections; detailed soil mapping, and mapping of on-Site resources. Hydrology, vegetation, and soil attributes were analyzed to determine the status of jurisdictional areas. Jurisdictional wetlands and adjustments to hydric soil boundaries were delineated using Global Positioning System (GPS) technology. Recent (2003) aerial photography was evaluated to determine primary hydrologic features and to map relevant environmental attributes. Information collected on-Site and in reference ecosystems was compiled in a database and incorporated with field observations to evaluate the on-Site stream under existing conditions. Subsequently, this restoration plan was developed to facilitate restoration success and to provide stream and wetland restoration to the EEP. ' Project 02-113.34 3 Bishop Property 3.0 EXISTING CONDITIONS 3.1 Physiography, Topography, and Land Use The Site is located in northern Anson County near the border of Stanly, Montgomery, and Richmond Counties, approximately 3 miles north of Ansonville, North Carolina. The Site falls in two USGS 14-digit Hydrologic Units (HUs). The Site is underlain by the Carolina Slate Belt geologic formation, immediately adjacent to the Chatham Group of the Triassic Basin geologic formation, within the Piedmont physiographic province of North Carolina. The hydrophysiographic region is characterized by dissected irregular plains, some hills, linear ridges, and isolated monadnocks (Griffith 2002) (Figure 4). This region is characterized by moderate rainfall with precipitation averaging approximately 47 inches per year (NRCS 2000). The Site is located within and adjacent to the Rocky River floodplain immediately upstream of the confluence of the Rocky River with the Pee Dee River. Slopes adjacent to the Rocky River floodplain are relatively steep and range in elevation from approximately 320 feet National Geodetic Vertical Datum (NGDV) at the upper reaches of smaller on-Site tributaries to a low of approximately 190 feet NGDV in the lower portions of the Rocky River floodplain (Figure 4). The Site includes approximately 5,500 linear feet of frontage adjacent to the Rocky River and approximately 23,000 linear feet of channel associated with four additional streams: Camp Branch, Unnamed Tributary (UT) to Camp Branch, Dula Thoroughfare, and UT to Dula Thoroughfare (Figure 2). Camp Branch is characterized as a second-order stream extending through relatively wide, moderately sloped valley (approximately 0.0022 rise/run). Dula Thoroughfare and the UTs are characterized as first-order streams extending through relatively narrow, steeply sloped valleys (approximately 0.022 and 0.0047 rise/run). The drainage area at the Camp Branch outfall is approximately 2.9 square miles. The drainage area at the Dula Thoroughfare and UT outfall are approximately 0.36 and 0.23 square miles, respectively (Figure 4). The watersheds for Camp Branch, Dula Thoroughfare, and the UTs are characterized predominately by agricultural land (row crops and livestock production) and forest with sparse residential development. Drainage basins for Dula Thoroughfare and the UTs are contained almost completely within property owned by Mr. Bishop or his immediate neighbor. The Camp Branch drainage basin extends upstream and encompasses several state maintained roadways, residential and agricultural structures adjacent -to the roadways, and a rail line. Impervious surfaces in drainage basins upstream from the Site are expected to cover less than 5 percent of the land area. Agricultural row crop production dominates the lower elevation floodplain terraces adjacent to the Rocky River, accounting for approximately 85 percent of the floodplain land area. Streams which cross through the floodplains are generally fringed by a disturbed stream-side assemblage; however, Dula Thoroughfare is devoid of a riparian fringe for much of its reach through the floodplain. As the streams grade upslope toward their headwaters, timber Project 02-113.34 4 Bishop Property ' production is the dominant land use. Forested areas are characterized by a mixture of pine and hardwood species approximately 10 to 15 years old. Recreational activities, specifically ' hunting, occur throughout the Site and various tree stands and food plots occur throughout the Site and adjacent properties. ' Two man-made impoundments located in the UT to Camp Branch stream complex encompass approximately 2.4 acres of land. The smaller impoundment (approximately 0.1 acre) is located at the UT headwaters and the larger impoundment (approximately 2.3 acres) has been created ' at the outer Camp Branch floodplain edge. These impoundments appear to have been created for irrigation of crops and recreational uses. ' 3.2 Soils Site soils have been mapped by the NRCS and include the Badin - Goldston complex, as well ' as the McQueen, Shellbluff, Tetotum, and Chewacla series (NRCS 2000) (Figure 5). A general description of each soil and its hydric/non-hydric status is included in Table 1. Table 1 - On-Site soils mapped by NRCS ' Series Hydric Status Family Description Badin Channery Silt Loam (BaB, Non-Hydric Typic Hapludults moderately deep, well drained, moderately ' BaC) permeable Badin-Goldston Non-Hydric Typic Hapludults- shallow to moderately deep, well drained, ' Complex (BgD) Typic Dystrudepts moderate to moderately rapid permeability McQueen (MrB) Non-Hydric Typic Hapludults deep, well drained, slow permeability Shellbluff (ShA) Non-Hydric Fluventic very deep, well drained, moderate ' Dystrudepts permeability Tetotum (ToA) Non-Hydric Aquic Hapludults very deep, moderately well drained, moderate permeability ' Non-Hydric; Chewacla (ChA) may contain Fluventic very deep, somewhat poorly drained, hydric Dystrudepts moderate permeability ' inclusions Badin Channerv Silt Loam BaB. BaC: ' This series is typically found on Piedmont uplands wi th moderate to steep slopes (2 to 8 percent or 8 to 15 percent). The soil solum is moderately deep and well drained with moderate permeability. Depth to seasonal high water table is greater than 6.0 feet, and depth to bedrock ' is 20 to 40 inches to soft bedrock and over 40 inches to hard bedrock. Badin Channery Silt Loam typically occurs on upland side slopes adjacent to area streams and tributaries ' Badin-Goldston Complex BqD: This series shares many characteristics with the Badin Channery Silt Loam described above; however, the addition of Goldston in the complex produces additional ranges for some values. ' These soils are also found in the Piedmont on slopes of 15 to 25 percent. Depths can range from shallow to moderately deep, and permeability can be moderate to moderately rapid, though typically well drained. Depth to the seasonal high water table is greater than 6.0 feet, t Project 02-113.34 5 Bishop Property and depth to bedrock varies from 10 to 20 inches and 20 to 40 inches to soft bedrock. Depth to ' hard bedrock is between 10 to 20 inches and greater than 40 inches. Badin-Goldston Complex occurs at the base of steep slopes adjacent to Dula Thoroughfare. ' Chewacla ChA: These frequently flooded soils can be found in floodplains of the Piedmont, Upper Coastal ' Plains, and Sandhills. Soils are very deep and somewhat poorly drained with moderate permeability. During the months of November through April the seasonal high water table can ' be at a depth of 0.5 to 1.5 feet. Depth to bedrock is more than 60 inches. Chewacla soils occur in low elevation depressions within the Rocky River floodplain. McQueen MrB: This series, found in -the Piedmont, Upper Coastal Plain, and Sandhills along major streams and rivers, is very deep and well drained. Permeability is slow, and the seasonal high water table through the months of January through March is at a depth of 4 to 6 feet. Depth to bedrock is greater than 60 inches. McQueen soils occur in floodplains adjacent to the Rocky River and Camp Branch. Shellbluff (ShA): This soil series is also found in floodplains of the Piedmont, Upper Coastal Plain, and Sandhills landscapes. Shellbluff soils are typically very deep and well drained with moderate permeability. Slopes are quite flat, ranging between 0 and 2 percent. From December to March the seasonal high water table can vary between 3 and 5 feet, and depth to bedrock is more than 60 inches. Shellbluff soils occur in crowned agricultural fields within the Rocky River floodplain. Tetotum (ToA): These soils are located on low stream terraces in the Piedmont, Upper Coastal Plain, and Sandhills landscapes. Tetotum soils are classified as very deep and moderately well drained with moderate permeability. These soils are found in low slope areas with slopes ranging from 0 to 3 percent. Seasonal high water tables in the months of December to April are between 1.5 and 2.5 feet. Bedrock can be found at depths greater than 60 inches. Tetotum soils occur in low elevation depressions downstream from a man-made pond in the UT to Camp Branch and in the floodplain to Dula Thoroughfare. 3.3 Jurisdictional Wetlands Jurisdictional areas are defined using the criteria set forth in the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Wetlands Delineation Manual (DOA 1987). Wetlands are defined by the presence of three criteria: hydrophytic vegetation, hydric soils, and evidence of wetland hydrology during the growing season (DOA 1987). Open water systems and wetlands receive similar treatment and consideration with respect to Section 404 review. Site jurisdictional areas include surface water in bank-to-bank streams, vegetated wetlands, and open water ponds. Site jurisdictional areas were delineated and located using GPS technology between August 27 and Oct 2, 2003 (Figure 6). The delineation was reviewed and approved by the USACE (Steve Lund regional field office representative) on January 13, 2004. Based on the jurisdictional boundary mapping, approximately 15.4 acres of jurisdictional wetlands and 28,518 linear feet of Project 02-113.34 6 Bishop Property ' jurisdictional streams, including 5,500 linear feet of Rocky River frontage, were delineated within the Site. Two distinct jurisdictional wetlands types occur within the Site boundaries: 1) groundwater seep depressions and 2) shallow surface water conveyances. ' Groundwater Seep Depressions Groundwater seep depressions occur at the upper headwaters of small tributaries and at the ' outer floodplain edge. These wetlands are formed by surface expression of groundwater over dense, low permeability clays or other impervious sub-surface horizons. On-Site groundwater seep depressions are underlain by loamy to clayey soils which are gleyed in color with frequent ' mottling, potentially indicating a fluctuating water table. Vegetation in these areas is frequently disturbed by land clearing in support of agriculture or timber harvest and consists of dense thickets of shrub and herbaceous species such as blackberry (Rubus sp.), black willow (Salix ' nigra), climbing hempweed (Mikania scandens), and tearthumb (Polygonum sagittatum). Shallow Surface Water Conveyances ' Shallow surface water conveyances occur in portions of the Rocky River floodplain where streams have been dredged, straightened, and altered from their original flow path. The reach of Dula Thoroughfare across the Rocky River floodplain is characterized by exceedingly low ' slopes resulting in ponding and sloughing of ditch banks, thereby creating a shallow, wide depression that remains inundated throughout most of the year. Although the area is inundated for extended periods, soils remain brightly colored (approximately 10YR 4/4 to 10 YR 4/6) which is characteristic of Triassic Basin area wetlands. Vegetation in these areas is characterized by row crop production and herbaceous species such as knotweed (Polygonum spp.), cat tail ' (Typha latifolia), rushes (Juncus spp.), and sedges (Carex spp.). 3.4 Hydrology ' 3.4.1 Surface Water The primary hydrologic feature at the Site is the Rocky River. The Rocky River is approximately ' 240 feet in width and 25 feet in depth at the Site boundary. Hydro-electric facilities on the Pee Dee River, located immediately upstream from the confluence of the Rocky River and Pee Dee River, have periodic releases resulting in back-flow conditions in the Rocky River, often leading ' to fluctuations in the normal hydrologic flow regime. Back-flow conditions affect on-Site surface water flow patterns at the confluence of Site streams with the Rocky River. ' Smaller area tributaries initiate as groundwater driven, depressional seepages on slopes adjacent to the Rocky River floodplain. Tributaries descend as first-order streams down moderate to steeply sloped, narrow valleys. As the tributaries coalesce, they form larger ' second and third order streams. Once the streams enter the Rocky River floodplain, they are generally impacted by agricultural practices, vegetation clearing, and channel ' dredging/straightening. Upon convergence with the Rocky River, the channels tend to incise to depths consistent with the dominant hydrologic feature, the Rocky River. Project 02-113.34 7 Bishop Property Discharge within the Site appears to be dominated by a combination of upstream basin catchments, groundwater flow, and precipitation. Based on regional curves (Harman et al. 1999) and infield measurements of channel bankfull cross-sectional area, bankfull discharges for on-Site streams include the following: Drainage Area Bankfull Discharge Stream Name (square miles) (cubic feet per second) Camp Branch 2.9 192 Dula Thoroughfare 0.4 46 UT to Dula Thoroughfare 0.2 28 Current research indicates bankfull discharge would be expected to occur approximately every 1.3 to 1.5 years (Rosgen 1996). 3.4.2 Groundwater Groundwater seepage results from upland terrestrial catchments, subsurface lateral groundwater flow, and expression of the groundwater table in jurisdictional wetland pockets or area stream margins. Groundwater seepage is related. to the size and characteristics of the catchment basin, while subsurface lateral flow is related to the porosity/conductivity of drainage basin soils. The drainage basin upstream of the Site is characterized largely by mature forest and open pasture with little impervious surface. With the exception of roads and roadside ditches, precipitation is expected to penetrate area soils and enter the groundwater table to be discharged into area wetlands and streams. Several groundwater seepages areas were identified within the Site. Groundwater seepage areas were delineated as jurisdictional wetlands and are depicted in Figure 6. Groundwater seepage areas are located at two distinct landscape positions: 1) at the upper extend of area tributaries, or 2) at the outer floodplain edge, adjacent to steep valley slopes. Both seepage types occur in depressions induced by soil saturation and function for surface water storage, pollutant removal; wildlife habitat, and nutrient cycling (Marble 1992). 3.5 Stream Characterization Stream geometry and substrate data have been evaluated to orient stream restoration based on a classification utilizing fluvial geomorphic principles (Rosgen 1996). This classification stratifies streams into comparable groups based on pattern, dimension, profile, and substrate characteristics. Primary components of the classification include degree of entrenchment, width/depth ratio, sinuosity, channel slope, and stream substrate composition. Each stream type is modified by a number from 1 through 6 (example: E6) denoting a stream type which indicates a substrate dominated by 1) bedrock, 2) boulders, 3) cobble, 4) gravel, 5) sand, or 6) silt/clay. On-Site streams were measured and characterized as E-type (narrow and deep), C-type (wide and shallow), and G-type (gully) channels. The location of each stream type is depicted in Figure 7. Figures 8 through 81 and Table 2A and 2B (Appendix B) depict morphological characteristics of existing on-Site channels. Individual cross-section data and other morphological information are included in Appendix C. Project 02-113.34 8 Bishop Property Camp Branch - Reach 1 (E-Type): Upstream of Headcut ' Location: Extends from the upstream northern property boundary to a channel headcut which is migrating upstream due to disturbances associated with on-Site land management practices (Figure 8).

Pattern Sinuosity - 1.05 Notes: Straightening of the channel has resulted in a loss of pattern variables such as pool- to-pool spacing, meander length, and radius of curvature. Pattern values for this reach are outside the modal concept for stable, E-type streams in the region.

Similarly, pool slope to average water surface slope varies from 0 to 1.6 indicating over-steepened pool slopes. Over-steepened facet slopes result from dredging and straightening of Camp Branch and impacts from land use activities through the reach. Project 02-113.34 10 Bishop Property Substrate: ' D50 -13.8 millimeters (medium gravel) Notes: Silt and clay particles make up 14 percent of the bed material, possibly indicating ' bimodal sediment transport from eroding channel banks.

Substrate: D50 - Not Measured 3.6 Plant Communities The Site is characterized by broad expanses of agricultural fields, along with mesic mixed pine/hardwood forest, upland slope forest, bottomland hardwood forest, and game species food plots. Site forests do not exhibit climax conditions due to past timber practices. Primary agricultural crops include corn, cotton, and soy beans, with interspersed patches of sorghum and clover for game species. Invasive species identified in agricultural fields during fallow times or prior to planting of crops consists primarily of morning glory (Convolvu/us arvensis), clover (Trifolium campestre), cocklebur (Xanthium strumarium), and sicklepod (Cassia obtusifolia). I Project 02-113.34 13 Bishop Property Mesic mixed pine/hardwood forest occurs adjacent to undisturbed streams descending from slopes adjacent to the Rocky River floodplain. The community occurs as narrow bands adjacent to smaller tributaries such as UT to Camp Branch, the upper reaches of Dula Thoroughfare, and the UT to Dula Thoroughfare. Species present include loblolly pine (Pinus taeda), red maple (Acer rubrum), American sycamore (Platanus occidentalis), green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica), and hackberry (Celtis laevigata). Vines present within this community include poison ivy (Toxicodendron radicans), greenbriar (Smilax rotundifolia), and muscadine (Vitus rotundifolia). Upland slope forest occurs on steep, dry slopes adjacent to floodplains and includes species such as white oak (Quercus alba), water oak (Quercus nigra), Virginia pine (Pinus virginiana), and various hickories (Carya spp.). Understory species include red maple, winged sumac (Rhus copallinum), and dogwood (Corpus florida) while vines present include poison ivy and muscadine. Bottomland hardwood forest is located in moist, frequently flooded flats adjacent to the Rocky River and Camp Branch. This community is characterized by species such as American sycamore, black willow, green ash, American elm (Ulmus americana), tulip poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera), and sugarberry (Celtis laevigata). The shrub component of this community includes Chinese privet (Ligustrum sinense), Japanese honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica), red maple, sweetgum, and muscadine. 3.7 Protected Species 3.7.1 Federally Protected Species Species with the Federal classification of Endangered (E), Threatened (T), or officially Proposed (P) for such listing are protected under the Endangered Species Act (ESA) of 1973, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.). The term "Endangered species" is defined as "any species which is in danger of extinction throughout all or a significant portion of its range", and the term "Threatened species" is defined as "any species which is likely to become an Endangered species within the foreseeable future throughout all or a significant portion of its range" (16 U.S.C. 1532). The following Federally protected species are listed for Anson County (5 February 2003 FWS list): Common Name Scientific Name Status Bald eagle Haliaeetus leucocepha/us T Red-cockaded woodpecker Picoides borealis E Carolina heelsplitter Lasmigona decorata E Schweinitz's sunflower Heilanthus schweinitizii E Project 02-113.34 14 Bishop Property I Bald Eagle The bald eagle is a large raptor with a wingspan greater than 6 feet. Adult bald eagles are dark brown with a white head and tail. Immature eagles are brown with whitish mottling on the tail, belly, and wing linings. Bald eagles typically feed on fish but may also take birds and small mammals. In the Carolinas, nesting season extends from December through May (Potter et al. 1980). Bald eagles typically nest in tall, living trees in a conspicuous location near open water. Eagles forage over large bodies of water and utilize adjacent trees for perching (Hamel 1992). Disturbance activities within a primary zone extending 750 to 1500 feet from a nest tree are considered to result in unacceptable conditions for eagles (USFWS 1987). The FWS recommends avoiding disturbance activities, including construction and tree-cutting, within this primary zone. Within a secondary zone, extending from the primary zone boundary out to a distance of 1.0 mile from a nest tree, construction and land-clearing activities should be restricted to the non-nesting period. The FWS also recommends avoiding alteration of natural shorelines where bald eagles forage, and avoiding significant land-clearing activities within 1500 feet of known roosting sites. I I The Site is located near open water systems which may be suitable for bald eagle feeding habitat. However, on-Site perching and nesting trees are limited to a disturbed, narrow fringe (approximately 25 to 50 feet in width) adjacent to the Rocky River. NHP records show the nearest elemental occurrence of bald eagle approximately 3.1 miles north of the Site, immediately south of Lake Tillery's Norwood Dam. NHP records and a lack of perching and nesting habitat indicate that, this project is not expected to adversely effect known populations of Bald Eagle. BIOLOGICAL CONCLUSION NO EFFECT Red-Cockaded Woodpecker This small woodpecker (7 to 8.5 inches in length) has a black head, prominent white cheek patches, and a black-and-white barred back. Males often have red markings (cockades) behind the eye, but the cockades may be absent or difficult to see (Potter et al. 1980). Primary nest sites for red-cockaded woodpeckers include open pine stands greater than 60 years of age with little or no mid-story development. Foraging habitat is comprised of open pine or pine/mixed hardwood stands 30 years of age or older (Henry 1989). Nest cavities are constructed in the heartwood of living pines, generally older than 70 years, which have been infected with red- heart disease. _ Nest cavity trees tend to occur in clusters, which are referred to as colonies (USFWS 1985). The woodpecker drills holes into the bark around the cavity entrance, resulting in a shiny, resinous buildup around the entrance that allows for easy detection of active nest trees. Ideal nesting and foraging sites for this woodpecker include pine flatwoods or pine- dominated savannas which have been maintained by frequent natural or prescribed fires. Development of a thick understory may result in abandonment of cavity trees. Field investigations indicate no suitable nesting or foraging habitat (pine stands greater than 30 years of age) within, or adjacent to, the Site. Based on NHP records, observations conducted during field investigations, and existing conditions of the Site, this project is not expected to adversely effect known populations of red-cockaded woodpecker. Project 02-113.34 15 Bishop Property BIOLOGICAL CONCLUSION NO EFFECT Carolina Heelsplitter The Carolina heelsplitter has an ovate, trapezoid shaped, unsculptured shell which grows to a maximum of approximately 4.5 inches length, by 2.7 inches height, and 1.5 inches in width (USFWS 1996). The shell varies in color from a greenish brown to dark brown on the outer surface and is often pearly to whitish blue, grading to orange on the inside surface. The dorsal margin is straight and may end in a slight wing, and the umbo is flattened. Beak sculpture is depressed and double looped, extending slightly past the hinge line. Lateral teeth are generally, thin and pseudo-cardinal teeth are lamellar and parallel to the dorsal margin (TSCFTM 1990). Historically, this species was reported in the Abbeville district of South Carolina and Mecklenburg County in North Carolina (Clarke 1985). The Abbeville district is bordered on the south by the Savannah River and on the north by the Saluda River. Presently the species range is limited to only six small streams and one small river. The heelsplitter is usually found in mud, muddy sand, or muddy gravel substrates along stable, well-shaded stream banks (Kefed and Shelly 1988). Currently, the heelsplitter is found in only two small remnant populations in North Carolina: 1) a tributary (Goose Creek) to the Rocky River located in Union County and 2) in a tributary (Waxhaw Creek) to the Catawba River located in Union County (USFWS 2003). NHP records indicate that this species has not been documented within 2.0 miles of the Site. However, the Site is located within the Rocky River drainage basin, and portions of Site streams are characterized by stable, vegetated stream banks; therefore, detailed surveys for presence of this species were necessary prior to initiation of Site implementation. The Catena Group, Inc was retained to complete a field survey for the Carolina heelsplitter in the waters of Camp Branch, UT to Camp Branch, Dula Thoroughfare, UT to Dula Thoroughfare, and Rocky River. It was found that the streams surveyed were generally not suitable as freshwater mussel habitat, and no Carolina Heelsplitter mussels were found in the survey. There is a slight possibility that mussel populations exist downstream of the project site on the Rocky River, but it is unlikely that these populations include the Carolina Heelsplitter. For this reason, the Catena Group anticipates the stream mitigation within the Bishop tract to be "Not Likely To Adversely Effect" the Carolina Heelsplitter (Freshwater Mussel Survey, Appendix E). BIOLOGICAL CONCLUSION ' NOT LIKELY TO ADVERSELY EFFECT Schweinitz's Sunflower Schweinitz's sunflower is an erect, unbranched, rhizomatous, perennial herb that grows to approximately 6 feet in height. The stem may be purple and is usually pubescent; however, the stems are sometimes nearly smooth. Leaves are sessile, opposite on the lower stem but alternate above and are lanceolate in shape, averaging 5 to 10 times as long as wide. The leaves are rather thick and stiff, with a few small serrations. The upper leaf surface is rough and Project 02-113.34 16 Bishop Property the lower surface is usually pubescent with soft white hairs. Schweinitz's sunflower blooms from September to frost. Flower heads are yellow and approximately 0.6 inches in diameter. The current range of this species is within 60 miles of Charlotte, North Carolina, occurring on upland interstream flats or gentle slopes. The plants usually occur in soils that are thin or clay in texture. The species needs open areas protected from shade or excessive competition, reminiscent of Piedmont prairies. Disturbances such as fire maintenance or regular mowing help sustain preferred habitat (USFWS 1994). NHP records indicate that this species has not been documented within 2.0 miles of the Site. Schweinitz's sunflower needs open areas protected from shade or excessive competition, reminiscent of Piedmont prairies. Roadside edges have been maintained as an open herbaceous community and appear to be suitable habitat for Schweinitz's sunflower. Agricultural field edges may provide additional habitat, providing that they are not intensively maintained and that competition from agricultural weeds is not excessive. Detailed surveys for this species were conducted on September 21 and 22, 2004, using systematic transects along all possible habitat areas. No specimens of Schweinitz's sunflower were found. Based on NHP records, field surveys, and professional judgment, this project will not affect Schweinitz's sunflower. BIOLOGICAL CONCLUSION 3.7.2 State Protected Species NO EFFECT Plant and animal species which are on the North Carolina State list as Endangered (E), Threatened (T), Special Concern (SC), Candidate (C), Significantly Rare (SR), or Proposed (P) (Amoroso 2002) receive limited protection under the North Carolina Endangered Species Act (G.S. 113-331 et seq.) and the North Carolina Plant Protection Act of 1979 (G.S. 106-202 et seg.). A records search of NHP files indicates one element occurrence within 2.0 miles of the Site. The thin-pod white wild indigo (Baptisia albescens) is not federally listed; however, it is listed in North Carolina as SR-P* (-P = species at the periphery of its range in North Carolina, * = historic record, not seen since 1979). Restoration activities are not expected to adversely affect this species. I Project 02-113.34 17 Bishop Property 4.0 REFERENCE STUDIES 4.1 Reference Channel A fundamental concept of stream classification entails the development and application of regional reference curves to stream reconstruction and enhancement. Regional reference curves can be utilized to predict bankfull stream geometry, discharge, and other parameters in altered systems. Development of regional reference curves for North Carolina was initiated in 1995. The curves characterize a broad range of streams within the Piedmont physiographic province. Small watersheds or deviations in valley slope, land use, or geologic substrate may not be accurately described by the curves; therefore, verification of individual watersheds may be necessary. On-Site and off-site reference reaches have been utilized in conjunction with regional curves for detailed planning and characterization of this restoration project. In order to develop proposed geometric parameters for on-Site, degraded channels, three nearby streams were measured for reference. The primary reference reaches for larger, lower slope on-Site channels are located 1) within Camp Branch at the upper on-Site reaches of the channel and 2) approximately 35 miles northwest of the Site on an unnamed tributary to Crane Creek. These reference streams are characterized by E-type channels. The primary reference reach for smaller, higher slope on-Site channels is located approximately 34 miles west of the Site on an unnamed tributary to Reedy Creek. This reference stream is characterized as an E-type channel. Table 3 (Appendix B) includes a summary of dimension, profile, and pattern data for the reference reaches used to establish reconstruction parameters. Channel cross-sections were measured at systematic locations and stream profiles were developed via laser level and GPS. Stream substrates were quantified through systematic pebble counts along the reference reach. Individual cross-section data and other morphological information are included in Appendix D. Initially, reference streams were visited and classified by stream type (Rosgen 1996). This classification stratifies streams into comparable groups based on geometric characteristics. Reference reaches identified in the vicinity were characterized primarily as E-type (highly sinuous) channels with sand or gravel substrate. E-type streams are slightly entrenched, highly sinuous (>1.5) channels which exhibit high meander width ratios (belt width/bankfull width). In North Carolina, E-type streams occur in narrow to wide valleys with well-developed alluvial floodplains (Valley Type VIII). These streams exhibit a sequence of riffles and pools associated with a sinuous flow pattern.

RFEs are forested areas on which to model restoration efforts of the restoration site in relation to soils, hydrology, and vegetation. RFEs should be ecologically stable climax communities and should represent believed historical (pre-disturbance) conditions of the restoration site. Quantitative data describing plant community composition and structure are collected at the RFEs and subsequently applied as reference data for design of the restoration site planting scheme. There were two RFE areas chosen to guide plant community restoration within the on-Site floodplain, channel banks, and adjacent floodplain slopes. The RFEs are both found within the Southern Outer Piedmont Ecoregion, one west and one northwest of the Site. Both RFEs support plant community, landform, and hydrological characteristics that restoration efforts will attempt to emulate. Circular, 0.1-acre plots were randomly established within the selected RFEs. Data collected within each plot include 1) tree, shrub, and herb species composition; 2) number of stems for each tree and shrub species; and 3) diameter at breast height (DBH) for each tree and shrub species. Field data (Table 4A and 4B [Appendix B]) indicate importance values (IV) of dominant tree species calculated based on relative density, dominance, and frequency of tree. species composition (Smith 1980). Hydrology, surface topography, and habitat features were also evaluated. The northwestern RFE is located in the floodplain of the UT to Crane Creek in Rowan County, North Carolina. Three 0.1-acre plots were established which best characterize expected steady-state forest composition. Forest vegetation was dominated by swamp chestnut oak (Quercus michauxii) (IV=0.17), green ash (IV=0.13), American elm (IV=0.10), and shagbark hickory (Carya ovata) (IV=0.09) (Table 4A [Appendix B]). Portions of the canopy were also dominated by willow oak (Quercus phellos), boxelder (Acer negundo), tulip poplar, black tupelo (Nyssa sylvatica), and red maple. The western RFE is located in the floodplain of Reedy Creek in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina. Within the RFE, vegetative sampling at four 0.1-acre plots indicate that forest tree vegetation was dominated by tulip poplar (IV=0.12), American elm (IV=0.10), northern red oak (Quercus rubra) (IV=0.08), and black walnut (Juglans nigra) (IV=0.07) (Table 4B [Appendix B]). Other, less dominant tree species within the sample plots were green ash, boxelder, and American sycamore. Project 02-113.34 20 Bishop Property I 5.0 STREAM POWER AND SHEAR STRESS STUDIES 5.1 Discharge Discharge estimates for the Site utilize an assumed definition of "bankfull" and the return interval associated with the bankfull discharge. For this study, the bankfull channel is defined as the channel dimensions designed to support the "channel forming" or "dominant" discharge (Gordon et al. 1992). Research indicates that a stable stream channel may support a return interval for bankfull discharge, or channel-forming discharge, between 1 to 2 years (Gordon et al. 1992, Dunne and Leopold 1978). The methods of Rosgen (1996) indicate calibration of bankfull dimensions based on a potential bankfull return interval between 1.3 and 1.5 years for rural conditions. Discharge within the Site appears to be dominated by a combination of upstream basin catchment, groundwater flow, and precipitation. Based on regional curves (Harman et al. 1999), the bankfull discharge for a 2.9 square mile watershed is expected to average approximately 192 cubic feet per second. Current research estimates a bankfull discharge of 192 cubic feet per second would be expected to occur approximately every 1.3 to 1.5 years (Rosgen 1996). 5.2 Stream Power, Shear Stress, and Stability Threshold ' 5.2.1 Stream Power Stability of a stream refers to its ability to adjust itself to in-flowing water and sediment load. ' One form of instability occurs when a stream is unable to transport its sediment load, leading to aggradation, or deposition of sediment onto the stream bed. Conversely, when the ability of the stream to transport sediment exceeds the availability of sediments entering a reach, and/or ' stability thresholds for materials forming the channel boundary are exceeded, erosion or degradation occurs. ' Stream power is the measure of a stream's capacity to move sediment over time. Stream power can be used to evaluate the longitudinal profile, channel pattern, bed form, and sediment transport of streams. Stream power may be measured over a stream reach (total stream ' power) or per unit of channel bed area. The total stream power equation is defined as: E2 = pgQs where Q = total stream power (ft-Ib/s-ft), p = density of water (lbg = gravitational acceleration (ft/s2), Q = discharge (ft3/sec), and s = energy slope (ft/ft). The specific weight of water (y = 62.4 lb/ft) is equal to the product of water density and gravitational acceleration, pg. A general evaluation of power for a particular reach can be calculated using bankfull discharge and water surface slope for the reach. As slopes become steeper and/or velocities increase, stream power increases and more energy is available for re-working channel materials. Straightening and clearing channels increases slope and velocity and thus stream power. Alterations to the stream channel may conversely decrease stream power. In particular, over- widening of a channel will dissipate energy of flow over a larger area. This process will Project 02-113.34 21 Bishop Property decrease stream power, allowing sediment to fall out of the water column, possibly leading to aggradation of the streambed. The relationship between a channel and its floodplain is also important in determining stream power. Streams that remain within their banks at high flows tend to have higher stream power and relatively coarser bed materials. In comparison, streams that flood over their banks onto adjacent floodplains have lower stream power, transport finer sediments, and are more stable. Stream power assessments can be useful in evaluating sediment discharge within a stream and the deposition or erosion of sediments from the streambed. 5.2.2 Shear Stress Shear stress, expressed as force per unit area, is a measure of the frictional force that flowing water exerts on a streambed. Shear stress and sediment entrainment are affected by sediment supply (size and amount), energy distribution within the channel, and frictional resistance of the streambed and bank on water within the channel. These variables ultimately determine the ability of a stream to efficiently transport bedload and suspended sediment. For flow that is steady and uniform, the average boundary shear stress exerted by water on the bed is defined as follows: i=yRs where = shear stress (lb/ft2), y = specific weight of water, R = hydraulic radius (ft), and s = the energy slope (ft/ft). Shear stress calculated in this way is a spatial average and does not necessarily provide.a good estimate of bed shear at. any particular point. Adjustments to account for local variability and instantaneous values higher than the mean value can be applied based on channel form and irregularity. For a straight channel, the maximum shear stress can be assumed from the following equation: timax = 1.5i for sinuous channels, the maximum shear stress can be determined as a function of plan form characteristics: Tm. = 2.65 C(Rc /Wbkf) .5 s where Rc = radius of curvature (ft) and Wbkf = bankfull width (ft). Shear stress represents a difficult variable to predict due to variability of channel slope, dimension, and pattern. Typically, as valley slope decreases channel depth and sinuosity increase to maintain adequate shear stress values for bedload transport. Channels that have higher shear stress values than required for bedload transport will scour bed and bank materials, resulting in channel degradation. Channels with lower shear stress values than needed for bedload transport will deposit sediment, resulting in channel aggradation. Project 02-113.34 22 Bishop Property The actual amount of work accomplished by a stream per unit of bed area depends on the available power divided by the resistance offered by the channel sediments, plan form, and vegetation. The stream power equation can thus be written as follows: w = pgQs = iv where w = stream power per unit of bed area (N/ft-sec, Joules/sec/ft2), ti = shear stress, and v = average velocity (ft/sec). Similarly, w = EMM 0 H [1 1 H n where Wbkf = width of stream at bankfull (ft). 5.2.3 Stream Power and Shear Stress Methods and Results Channel degradation or aggradation occurs when hydraulic forces exceed, or do not approach, the resisting forces in the channel. The amount of degradation or aggradation is a function of relative magnitude of these forces over time. The interaction of flow within the boundary of open channels is only imperfectly understood. Adequate analytical expressions describing this interaction have yet to be developed for conditions in natural channels. Thus, means of characterizing these processes rely heavily upon empirical formulas. Traditional approaches for characterizing stability can be placed in one of two categories: 1) maximum permissible velocity and 2) tractive force, or stream power and shear stress. The former is advantageous in that velocity can be measured directly. Shear stress and stream power cannot be measured directly and must be computed from various flow parameters. However, stream power and shear stress are generally better measures of fluid force on the channel boundary than velocity. Using these equations, stream power and shear stress were estimated for 1) Camp Branch Reach 1 and 2: Upstream of Headcut to Ford, 2) Camp Branch Reach 3: Downstream of Ford, 3) Dula Thoroughfare: Upstream Reach, 4) Dula Thoroughfare: Downstream Reach, 5) Camp Branch, Reference Reach, 6) UT to Reedy Creek (reference area), 7) UT to Crane Creek (reference area), and 8) Proposed on-Site conditions. Important input values and output results (including stream power, shear stress, and per unit shear power and shear stress) are presented in Table 5. Average stream velocity and discharge values were calculated for existing on-Site stream reaches, reference reaches, and proposed conditions. Project 02-113.34 23 Bishop Property I able 5.

Conversely, stream power and shear stress are highest in the on-Site reaches which are currently showing signs of degradation (Camp Branch Reach 3). Stream power is the highest for the dredged and straightened, G-type reach, where slopes have been steepened, cross-sectional area is high, width-to-depth ratio is low, bank erosion is high, and the channel is highly incised. In order to maintain sediment transport functions of a stable stream system, the non-braided reaches of proposed channels should exhibit stream power and shear stress values that neither aggrade nor degrade. Results of the analysis indicate that the non-braided proposed channel reaches are expected to maintain stream power values of approximately 10 to 35 and shear stress values of approximately 0.27 to 0.31 (similar to that of reference reaches and considerably less than that of the existing degrading reaches). Therefore, the design channel is expected to effectively transport sediment through the Site, resulting in stable channel characteristics. Project 02-113.34 24 Bishop Property 6.0 RESTORATION PLAN ' The primary goals of this restoration plan include 1) construction of stable, riffle-pool stream complexes; 2) construction of a backwater slough, braided stream complex, 3) creation of a natural vegetation buffer along enhanced and restored stream channels; 4) maximize the re- establishment of historic wetland function; 5) restoration of wildlife functions associated with a riparian corridor, and 6) protection of the Site in perpetuity. ' The complete restoration plan is depicted in Figure 9. The proposed restoration plan is expected to provide the following: 1. 5,663 linear feet of stream restoration 2. 1,190 linear feet of stream enhancement - level 1 (restoration of dimension and profile) 3. 7,306 linear feet of stream enhancement - level 2 (remove from agriculture, remove ' spoil from the banks, and re-vegetate) 4. 11,250 linear feet of stream preservation ' 5. 10.2 acres of wetland preservation 6. 5.6 acres of wetland restoration 7. 0.9 acres of wetland enhancement ' Components of this plan may be modified based on construction or access constraints. ' Primary activities proposed at the Site include 1) stream enhancement/restoration, 2) wetland enhancement/restoration, 3) soil scarification, and 4) plant community restoration. A monitoring plan is outlined in Section 7 of this document. ' 6.1 Stream Enhancement/Restoration This stream enhancement/restoration effort is designed to reconstruct stable, meandering ' streams that approximate hydrodynamics, stream geometry, and local microtopography relative to reference conditions. This effort consists of 1) stream reconstruction on new location, 2) stream reconstruction in place, and 3) ford construction. Geometric attributes for the ' proposed, stable channels are listed in Table 6A and 613 (Appendix B). 6.1.1 Reconstruction on New Location ' Reaches proposed for reconstruction on new location are depicted on Figure 9A to 9C. Primary activities designed to reconstruct the channel on new location include 1) belt-width preparation and grading, 2) floodplain bench excavation, 3) channel excavation, 4) installation of channel ' plugs, and 5) backfilling of the abandoned channel. ' Belt-width Preparation and Grading Care will be taken to avoid the removal of existing, deeply rooted vegetation within the belt- width corridor which may provide design channel stability. Material excavated during grading will be stockpiled immediately adjacent to channel segments to be abandoned and backfilled. These segments will be backfilled after stream diversion is completed. ' Project 02-113.34 25 Bishop Property Spoil material may be placed to stabilize temporary access roads and to minimize compaction of the underlying floodplain. However, all spoil will be removed from floodplain surfaces upon completion of construction activities. Floodolain Bench Excavation The creation of a bankfull, floodplain bench is expected to 1) remove the eroding material and collapsing banks, 2) promote overbank flooding during bankfull flood events, 3) reduce the erosive potential of flood waters, and 4) increase the width of the active floodplain. Bankfull benches may be created by excavating the adjacent floodplain to bankfull elevations or filling eroded/abandoned channel areas with suitable material. After excavation, or filling of the bench, a relatively level floodplain surface is expected to be stabilized with suitable erosion control measures. Planting of the bench with native floodplain vegetation is expected to reduce erosion of bench sediments, reduce flow velocities in flood waters, filter pollutants, and provide wildlife habitat. After excavation of the floodplain bench, the design channel and updated profile survey will be developed and the location of each meander wavelength plotted and staked along the profile. Pool locations and relative frequency configurations may be modified in the field based on local variations in the floodplain profile. Channel Excavation The channel will be constructed within the range of values depicted in Table 6A and 6B (Appendix B). The channel will be excavated to the approximate dimensions depicted on Figure 10. The channel should be excavated to the proposed channel depth and width. Material excavated from the proposed design channel will be stockpiled adjacent to the reach of channel to be backfilled or will be wasted on upland portions of the Bishop property, as directed by the field engineer. Stream banks and local belt-width area of constructed channels will be immediately planted with shrub and herbaceous vegetation. Particular attention will be directed toward providing vegetative cover and root growth along the outer bends of each stream meander. Live willow stake revetments will be constructed as conceptually depicted in Figure 11. Available root mats or biodegradable, erosion-control matting may be embedded into the break-in-slope to promote more rapid development of an overhanging bank. Willow stakes will be purchased and/or collected on-Site and inserted through the root/erosion mat into the underlying soil. Channel Plugs Impermeable plugs will be installed along abandoned channel segments at locations depicted on Figure 9A to 9C. The plugs will consist of low-permeability materials or hardened structures designed to be of sufficient strength to withstand the erosive energy of surface flow events across the Site. Dense clays may be imported from off-site or existing material, compacted within the channel, may be suitable for plug construction. The plug will be sufficiently wide and deep to form an imbedded overlap in the existing banks and channel bed. Project 02-113.34 26 Bishop Property ' Channel Backfilling After impermeable plugs are installed, the abandoned channel will be back-filled. Backfilling will ' be performed primarily by pushing stockpiled materials into the channel. The channel will be filled to the extent that on-Site material is available and compacted to maximize microtopographic variability, including ruts, ephemeral pools, and hummocks in the vicinity of ' the backfilled channel. In-Stream Structures ' Stream restoration under natural stream design techniques normally involves the use of in- stream structures for bank stabilization, grade control, and habitat improvement. Primary activities designed to achieve these objectives may include the installation of cross-vane weirs, ' J-hook vanes, and log vanes. ' Cross-vane Weirs ' The purpose of the vane is to 1) sustain bank stability, 2) direct high velocity flows during bankfull events toward the center of the channel, 3) maintain average pool depth throughout the ' reach, 4) preserve water surface elevations and reconnect the adjacent floodplain to flooding dynamics from the stream, and 5) modify energy distributions through increases in channel roughness and local energy slopes during peak flows. I Cross-vane weirs will be constructed as conceptually depicted in Figure 12. Cross-vane weir construction will be initiated by imbedding footer rocks into the stream bed for stability and to prevent undercutting of the structure. Header rocks will then be placed atop the footer rocks at the design elevation. Footer and header rocks create an arm that slopes from the center of the channel upward at approximately 7 to 10 degrees, tying in at the bankfull floodplain elevation. The cross-vane arms at both banks will be tied into the bank with a sill to eliminate the possibility of water diverting around the structure. Once the header and footer stones are in place, filter fabric will be buried into a trench excavated around the upstream side of the vane arms. The filter fabric is then draped over the header rocks to force water over the vane. The upstream side of the structure can then be backfilled with suitable material to the elevation of the header stones. J-hook/loa vanes The primary purpose of the J-hook and log vanes is to direct high-velocity flows during bankfull events toward the center of the channel. J-hook vanes will be constructed using the same type and size of rock employed in the construction of cross-vane weirs (Figure 13). Log vanes will be constructed utilizing large tree trunks harvested from the Site or imported from off-site. The tree stem harvested for a log-vane arm must be long enough to be imbedded into the stream channel and extend several feet into the floodplain (Figure 14). A trench will be dug into the stream channel that is deep enough for the head of the log to be at or below the channel invert. The trench is then extended into the floodplain and the log is set into the trench such that the log arm is below the floodplain elevation. If the log is not of sufficient size to completely block stream flow (gaps occur between the log and channel bed) then a footer log or stone footers will be installed beneath the header log. Boulders will then be situated at the base of the log and at the head of the log to hold the log in place. Project 02-113.34 27 Bishop Property Similar to a cross vane, the arm of the J-hook vane and the log vane (which forms an arm) must slope from the center of the channel upward at approximately 7 to 10 degrees, tying in at the bankfull floodplain elevation. Once these vanes are in place, filter fabric is toed into a trench on the upstream side of the vane and draped over the structure to force water over the vane. The upstream side of the structure is then backfilled with suitable material. 6.1.2 Stream Reconstruction In-Place Stream reconstruction in-place is expected in 1) areas where channel pattern has not been altered; however, the channel has incised due bed or bank erosion, or 2) areas where backwater slough conditions will persist once restoration has been completed. Reaches proposed for reconstruction in-place are depicted in Figure 9A to 9C. Primary activities designed to achieve these objectives may include 1) installation of in-stream structures, 2) creation of a floodplain bench, 3) excavation of a backwater slough/braided channel system, 4) spoil removal, 5) backfilling abandoned channels, and 6) diversion of bankfull flows to historic channels. Installation of in-stream structures and creation of a floodplain bench has been described in detail in Section 6.1.1 (Stream Reconstruction on New Location) of this document. The design, installation, and function of in-stream structures and floodplain bench are similar for stream reconstruction in-place. Excavation of a Backwater Slough/Braided Channel System Backwater slough/braided channel systems will be designed to mimic reference wetland and stream conditions found within the Rocky River floodplain. Conditions include 1) convoluted interception of groundwater and flood flows, 2) average slope of upland-wetland interface and slough surface, 3) micro-topographic variation along the slough surface, and 4) soil modification and debris deposition. Backwater slough/braided channel construction will occur within, and adjacent to,* the existing Dula Thoroughfare aggrading ditch/channel (Figure 9B). Construction of the backwater slough/braided channel system will initiate at the confluence of Dula Thoroughfare and the Rocky River floodplain. The system will extend approximately 1195 feet downstream as a series of shallow, irregularly shaped depressions interspersed between shallow, braided stream channels. The depressions will range to a maximum of 1-foot below the proposed surface elevation in the center of the depression. The isolated depressions are expected to fill with organic matter and sediment, with development of braided channel occurring passively over time. Spoil Removal Spoil material deposited adjacent to the downstream reaches of Dula Thoroughfare and the UT to Dula Thoroughfare will be removed from channel banks and deposited in abandoned channels or wasted in upland portions of the Site/adjacent agricultural fields. Spoil removal areas are depicted in Figure 9B and 9C. Removal of spoil material is expected to facilitate overbank flooding, thereby extending floodprone areas and reducing scour potential of local flood flows. Project 02-113.34 28 Bishop Property ' Backfilling Abandoned Channels Several reaches of the UT to Dula Thoroughfare are characterized by shoot cutoffs; secondary channels that have been blocked from normal flows by spoil castings; and excavated channels adjacent to an historic, abandoned channel. Backfilling of these abandoned channels with spoil material or material excavated from the floodplain will redirect stream flow through the historic, abandoned reaches of channel. Diversion of Bankfull Flows Bankfull discharge currently appears to be re-directed through a ditch connecting the downstream reach of Dula Thoroughfare to the Rocky River. This ditch effectively splits stormwater discharge from Dula Thoroughfare during bankfull flood events. Conversely, the ditch transmits water to Dula Thoroughfare during high volume flood flows from the Rocky River. Filling this ditch, and redirecting bankfull discharge through Dula Thoroughfare will allow for "channel forming„ flows to continue natural evolutionary channel processes within on-Site and downstream reaches of Dula Thoroughfare. 6.1.3 Ford Construction Landowner constraints will necessitate the installation of three channel fords to allow access to portions of the property isolated by the conservation easement and/or stream and wetland restoration activities. Proposed channel ford locations are depicted on Figure 9. The fords are expected to consist of shallow depressions in stream banks where vehicular crossings can be made (Figure 15). The fords will be constructed of hydraulically stable rip-rap or suitable rock and will be large enough to handle the weight of anticipated vehicular traffic. Approach grades to the ford will be at a minimum 15:1 slope and constructed of hard, scour-resistant crushed rock or other permeable material, which is free of fines. The bed elevation of the ford will equal the stream bed elevation above and below the ford to reduce the risk of headcutting. 6.2 Wetland Enhancement/Restoration ' Site alterations to wetland areas and/or areas underlain by hydric soils are designed to re- establish a fully functioning wetland system which will provide surface water storage, nutrient cycling, removal of imported elements and compounds, and will create a variety and abundance ' of wildlife habitat. Wetland enhancement/restoration activities are expected to restore approximately 5.6 acres of jurisdictional wetland and enhance approximately 0.9 acre of jurisdictional wetland (Figure 9). The proposed conservation easement also encompasses ' approximately 10.2 acres of existing, relatively undisturbed jurisdictional wetland which will be preserved in-perpetuity. ' Portions of the Site underlain by hydric soil have been impacted by vegetative clearing, earth movement associated with the dredging and straightening of Dula Thoroughfare and compaction by placement of spoil on the floodplain. Wetland enhancement/restoration options ' will focus on 1) the establishment of backwater slough/braided channel systems, 2) excavation and grading of elevated spoil and sediment embankments, and 3) reestablishing hydrophytic vegetation. Establishment of Backwater Slough / Braided Channel Systems Project 02-113.34 29 Bishop Property The existing dredged and straightened reach of Dula Thoroughfare represents the primary on- Site wetland restoration feature. Currently, Dula Thoroughfare drains from the valley wall slopes as a channelized, E-type stream. Upon entering the Rocky River Floodplain, the channel has been dredged and straightened and is currently characterized as a shallow, wide, slackwater ditch that has been isolated from the adjacent floodplain. Measures outlined in Section 6.2.1 (Stream Reconstruction In-Place - Excavation of a Backwater Sough/Braided Channel System), including excavation of a floodplain and shallow non-linear depressions connected by braided channel systems is expected to result in approximately 5.6 acres of jurisdictional wetland restoration within the Rocky River floodplain. It should be noted that floodplains adjacent to the dredged and straightened reach of Dula Thoroughfare are underlain by brightly colored soils (approximately 10YR 4/4 to 10YR 4/6), which are characteristic of wetlands in the area. USACE representatives conducted a field visit to the Site on January 13, 2004 (Notification of Jurisdictional Determination can be found in Appendix F), and confirmed these brightly colored soils were indicative of a hydric soil for the region. Excavation and Gradinq of Elevated Spoil and Sediment Embankments Reaches of Dula Thoroughfare and its UT have experienced both natural and unnatural sediment deposition. Spoil piles appear to have been cast adjacent to the channels during dredging and straightening of the stream or during agricultural field clearing. Major flood events may have also deposited additional sediment adjacent to stream banks from eroding banks and upstream agricultural fields. The removal of spoil material and/or filling of on-Site ditches with spoil material represent a critical element of wetland restoration. Hydrophytic Vegetation On-Site wetland areas have endured significant disturbance from land use activities such as land clearing, row crop agriculture, and other anthropogenic maintenance. Wetland areas will be re-vegetated with native vegetation typical of wetland communities in the region. Emphasis will focus on developing a diverse plant assemblage. Sections 6.4 (Plant Community Restoration) and 6.4.2 (Planting Plan) provide detailed information concerning community species associations. Re-vegetation of portions of the Site underlain by hydric soils is expected to represent an important wetland enhancement/restoration component. 6.3 Floodplain Soil Scarification Microtopography and differential drainage rates within localized floodplain areas represent important components of floodplain functions. Reference forests in the region exhibit complex surface microtopography. Small concavities, swales, exposed root systems, seasonal pools, oxbows, and hummocks associated with vegetative growth and hydrological patterns are scattered throughout these systems. As discussed in the stream reconstruction section, efforts. to advance the development of characteristic surface microtopography will be implemented. In areas where soil surfaces have been compacted, ripping or scarification will be performed. After construction, the soil surface is expected to exhibit complex microtopography ranging to 1 foot vertical asymmetry across local reaches of the landscape. Subsequently, community restoration will be initiated on complex floodplain surfaces. Project 02-113.34 30 Bishop Property 1 ' 6.4 Plant Community Restoration Restoration of floodplain forest and stream-side habitat allows for development and expansion ' of characteristic species across the landscape, in addition to reducing the presence of invasive species. Ecotonal changes between community types contribute to diversity and provide secondary benefits, such as enhanced feeding and nesting opportunities for mammals, birds, ' amphibians, and other wildlife. RFE data, on-Site observations, and community descriptions from Classification of the Natural i Communities of North Carolina (Schafale and Weakley 1990) were used to develop the primary plant community associations that will be promoted during community restoration activities. ' These community associations include 1) stream-side assemblage, 2) bottomland hardwood forest, and 3) slope forest (Figure 16). Figure 17 identifies the location, based on elevation and position relative to restored streams and wetlands, of each target community to be planted. ' Planting elements within each map unit are listed below. Bottomland Hardwood Forest ' 1. Swamp chestnut oak (Quercus michauxii) 2. American elm (Ulmus americana) 3. Sugarberry (Celtis laevigata) ' 4. Green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica) 5. Shagbark hickory (Carya ovata) 6. Willow oak (Quercus phellos) ' 7. Northern red oak (Quercus rubra) 8.

American holly (Ilex opaca) Project 02-113.34 31 Bishop Property 6. Flowering dogwood (Cornus florida) Stream-side trees and shrubs include species with high value for sediment stabilization, rapid growth rate, and the ability to withstand hydraulic forces associated with bankfull flow and overbank flood events. Stream-side trees and shrubs will be planted within 15 feet of the channel throughout the meander belt-width. Shrub elements will be planted along the banks of the reconstructed stream, concentrated along outer bends. Bottomland hardwood forest vegetation is targeted for areas located in the floodplain and backwater slough/braided channel system. Species common along slope forests will be planted on slopes adjacent to the floodplain. The following planting plan is the blueprint for community restoration. The anticipated results stated in the Success Criteria (Section 7.8) are expected to reflect potential vegetative conditions achieved after steady-state conditions prevail over time. 6.5 Planting Plan The purpose of a planting plan is to re-establish vegetative community patterns across the landscape. The plan consists of 1) acquisition of available plant species, 2) implementation of proposed Site preparation, and 3) planting of selected species. Species selected for planting will be dependent upon availability of local seedling sources. Advance notification to nurseries (1 year) will facilitate availability of various non-commercial elements. Bare-root seedlings of tree species will be planted within specified map areas at a density of approximately 680 stems per acre on 8-foot centers. Shrub species in the streamside assemblage will be planted at a density of 1360 stems per acre on 4-foot centers. Table 7 depicts the total number of stems and species distribution within each vegetation association. Planting will be performed between December 1 and March 15 to allow plants to stabilize during the dormant period and set root during the spring season. A total of 63,454 diagnostic tree and shrub seedlings may be planted during restoration.

If necessary, monitoring will continue through additional growing seasons. Monitoring is proposed for single-strand stream channels, as well as wetland components of hydrology and vegetation. A general Site monitoring plan is depicted in Figure 18. Stream measurements are not proposed in the backwater slough/braided channel system due to typical characteristics of a D-type {braided) stream consisting of multiple braided channels. D-type stream systems are not conducive to measurement of pattern, dimension, and profile; therefore, the stream will be visually assessed and photographically documented annually to semi-annually and any potential problem area(s) will be identified. If a problem area is noted during the review, the area will be evaluated to determine the corrective action required to resolve the problem. 7.1 Stream Monitoring Site stream reaches proposed to be monitored for geometric activity are conceptually depicted in Figure 18. Each stream reach will extend for a minimum of 450 feet along the restored channel. Annual fall monitoring will include development of channel cross-sections on riffles and pools, pebble counts, and a water surface profile of the channel. The data will be presented in graphic and tabular format. Data to be presented will include 1) cross-sectional area, 2) bankfull width, 3) average depth, 4) maximum depth, 5) width-to-depth ratio, 6) meander wavelength, 7) belt-width, 8) water surface slope, 9) sinuosity, and 10) stream substrate composition. The stream will subsequently be classified according to stream geometry and substrate (Rosgen 1996). Significant changes in channel morphology will be tracked and reported by comparing data in each successive monitoring year. 7.2 Stream Success Criteria Success criteria for stream restoration will include 1) successful classification of the reach as a functioning stream system (Rosgen 1996) and 2) channel variables indicative of a stable stream system. Stream restoration success criteria will follow the constructs outlined by interagency guidance (Stream Mitigation Guidelines [USACE et. al. 2003]). The channel configuration will be measured on an annual basis in order to track changes in channel geometry, profile, or substrate. These data will be utilized to determine the success in restoring stream channel stability. Specifically, the channel should exhibit the following characteristics: 1) Insignificant change in dimension from as-built measurements or the previous years monitoring measurements. 2) Minor changes in channel dimension are allowed; however, dimension changes should not represent a trend towards instability (e.g. increased width to depth ratio or decreased width to depth ratio with decreased entrenchment ratio). 3) Little change in longitudinal profile. 4) Pool/riffle spacing should remain fairly constant. 5) Pools should not be aggrading and riffles should not scour. Project 02-113.34 34 Bishop Property ' 6) Pebble count should trend toward a desired bed material. ' The field indicator of bankfull will be described in each monitoring year and indicated on a representative channel cross-section figure. If the stream channel is down-cutting or the channel width is enlarging due to bank erosion, additional bank or slope stabilization methods ' may be employed. The stream is expected to maintain shear stress values to adequately transport sediment ' through the Site. Pebble counts will be conducted annually to determine D50 and D84 values within the restored stream. Pebble counts would be expected to indicate a general coarsening of materials on the riffles throughout the monitoring period. ' Visual assessment of in-stream structures will be conducted to determine if failure has occurred. Failure of a structure may be indicated by collapse of the structure, undermining of the structure, ' abandonment of the channel around the structure, and/or stream flow beneath the structure. 7.3 Hydrology Monitoring ' Groundwater monitoring gauges (one gauge within reference and four gauges on-Site) will be installed to monitor groundwater elevations after hydrological modifications are performed. ' Hydrological sampling will continue throughout the growing season at intervals necessary to satisfy the hydrology success criteria within each design unit (EPA 1990). ' 7.4 Hydrology Success Criteria Target hydrological characteristics include saturation or inundation for at least 12.5 percent of the growing season at lower landscape positions, during average climatic conditions. Upper ' landscape reaches may exhibit surface saturation/inundation between 5 percent and 12.5 percent of the growing season based on groundwater gauge data. These areas are expected to support hydrophytic vegetation. If wetland parameters are marginal as indicated by vegetation and/or hydrology monitoring, a jurisdictional determination will be performed in these areas. ' 7.5 Vegetation Monitoring Restoration monitoring procedures for vegetation are designed in accordance with EEP Vegetation Monitoring Requirements (draft 27 August 2004). A general discussion of the ' restoration monitoring program is provided. A photographic record of plant growth should be included in each annual monitoring report, in addition to the necessary data forms. ' After planting has been completed in winter or early spring, an initial evaluation will be performed to verify planting methods and to determine initial species composition and density. ' Supplemental planting and additional Site modifications will be implemented, if necessary. During the first year, vegetation will receive cursory, visual evaluation on a periodic basis to ascertain the degree of overtopping of planted elements by nuisance species. Subsequently, ' quantitative sampling of vegetation will be performed annually, between May and September, until the vegetation success criterion is achieved. t ' Project 02-113.34 35 Bishop Property During quantitative vegetation sampling in summer of the first year, approximately seven sample plots will be randomly placed within the Site. Sample-plot distributions are expected to resemble locations depicted in Figure 18; however, best professional judgment may be necessary to establish vegetative monitoring plots upon completion of construction activities. In each sample plot, vegetation parameters to be monitored include species composition and species density. Visual observations of the percent cover of shrub and herbaceous species will also be recorded. No quantitative sampling requirements are proposed for herb assemblages as part of the vegetation success criteria. Development of floodplain forests over several decades will dictate the success in migration and establishment of desired understory and groundcover populations. Visual estimates of the percent cover of herbaceous species and photographic evidence will be reported for information purposes. 7.8 Vegetation Success Criteria Tables and discussion for each of the following success criteria will be provided with each report. The criteria include cover for each species in each plot, strata presence for each species in each plot and stem counts of each planted species in each plot.

Hillsborough, North Carolina January 24, 2004 U Michael G. Wood INTRODUCTION The North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program (NCEEP) has contracted EcoScience Corporation to evaluate the Bishop Property (Bishop Site) for its potential as a mitigation site. The Bishop Site is in the Rocky River Subbasin of the Yadkin/Pee Dee River Basin in Anson County (Figure 1). The proposed mitigation on this property will include the restoration of an estimated total of 7600 linear feet of stream on Camp Branch, an Unnamed Tributary (UT) to Camp Branch, Dulla Thoroughfare, and UT to Dulla Throughfare. Although no restoration is planned for the mainstem of the Rocky River, there is potential for its waters to be impacted as a result of restoration efforts planned for Dulla Throughfare just above where it joins with the mainstem Rocky River. The federally endangered Carolina heelsplitter (Lasmigona decorata) is known to occur in the Rocky River Subbasin of the Yadkin/Pee Dee River Basin and is listed by the US Fish and Wildlife Service as occurring in Anson County, thus The Catena Group, Inc. was retained by EcoScience Corporation to conduct surveys for this species. WATERS IMPACTED: Camp Branch, UT to Camp Branch, Dulla Thoroughfare, UT to Dulla Thoroughfare, and Rocky River Camp Branch originates at the westernmost portion of the property, approximately 1.5 river miles (RM) from its confluence with Rocky River. The upstream portion of Camp Branch (the section upstream of its confluence with UT Camp Branch) meanders through a wooded area with a 1-2 meter (3-6.5 foot) wide channel and 1-3 meter (3.5-10 feet) high moderately eroded clay banks. The substrate in this portion of the stream was a sand-cobble mix. The confluence with the UT is near the farm road that used to cross Camp Branch. The road crossing has been removed, however a beaver dam has been recently constructed that has ponded approximately 600 feet of channel. From below the beaver dam downstream to the Rocky River, the channel widens to an average of 6 meters (19.7 feet) and the banks become deeply incised, up to 7 meters (23 feet) high in some places. The sand-cobble substrate includes large areas of bedrock. The riparian corridor in this section is very narrow, flanked on both sides with active crop fields. Stream flow ranged from shallow riffles to slow moving runs with beaver activity observed throughout the reach. UT to Camp Branch originates approximately 1200 meters upstream of its confluence with Camp Branch. This shallow stream meanders through a wooded lot for about 600 meters before entering a small impoundment. UT to Camp Branch exits the pond to the northeast where it has been ditched through its remaining length before converging with Camp Branch. Within the area surveyed, the UT ranges from 0.5-1.0 meters (2-3.5 feet) in width. ' Dulla Thoroughfare and UT to Dulla Thoroughfare occur in the southeastern portion of the tract with the UT connecting Dulla to the Rocky River. Cursory habitat examinations revealed the streams to be heavily degraded and often ditched through out the ' majority of the property. Due to these factors and their relatively small size, it was determined that they contained no appropriate habitat for freshwater mussels.

Group Bishop Property Mitigation Site Freshwater Mussel Survey Locations Anson County, North Carolina Date: January 2005 Scale: As Shown lob No.: 3143 1 TCG- Freshwater Mussel Surveys 2 Bishop Tract Mitigation Site, Anson County, NC Rocky River originates in Cabarrus County over 30 RM to the northwest of the Bishop Property. It flows east, forming the southern border of Stanley County until it joins the Pee-Dee River just downstream of the survey area. Within the surveyed reach, the Rocky River was approximately 80 meters (260 feet) wide with a maximum depth of approximately 7 feet. Substrate ranged from compact gravel-cobble in the main channel to silty clay along the banks. River banks were approximately 3 meters (10 feet) high and often vertical. A moderate amount of windthrow and the resulting woody debris was apparent along the rivers edge. There was a narrow wooded buffer separating the large tracts of surrounding agricultural land from the Rocky River within the surveyed reach. SPECIES DESCRIPTION CAROLINA HEELSPLITTER (Lasmigona decorata) Lea 1852 Status: Endangered Family: Unionidae Listed: July-24-1992 Characteristics The Carolina heelsplitter (Lasmigona decorata), originally described as Unio decoratus by (Lea 1852), synonymized with Lasmigona subviridis Conrad, (Johnson 1970), and later separated as a distinct species (Clarke 1985), is a federally Endangered freshwater mussel, historically known from several locations within the Catawba and Pee Dee River systems in North Carolina and the Pee Dee, Savannah and possibly the Saluda River systems in South Carolina. The Carolina heelsplitter is characterized as having an ovate, trapezoid-shaped, unsculptured shell. The outer surface of the shell ranges from greenish brown to dark brown in color, with younger specimens often having faint greenish brown or black rays. The shell's nacre is often pearly white to bluish white, grading to orange in the area of the umbo (Keferl 1991). The hinge teeth are well developed and heavy and the beak sculpture is double looped (Keferl and Shelly 1988). Morphologically, the shell of the Carolina heelsplitter is very similar to the shell of the green floater (Clarke 1985), with the exception of a much larger size and thickness in L. decorata (Keferl and Shelly 1988). Prior to collections in 1987 and 1990 by Keferl (1991), L. decorata had not been collected in the 20th century and was known only from shell characteristics. Because of its rarity, very little information of this species biology, life history, and habitat requirements was known. Feeding strategy and reproductive cycle of the Carolina heelsplitter have not been documented, but are likely similar to other native freshwater mussels (USFWS 1996). The feeding processes of freshwater mussels are specialized for the removal (filtering) of suspended microscopic food particles from the water column (Pennak 1989). Documented food sources for freshwater mussels include detritus, diatoms, phytoplankton and zooplankton (USFWS 1996). TCG- Freshwater Mussel Surveys Bishop Tract Mitigation Site, Anson County, NC Freshwater mussels have complex reproductive cycles, which include a larval stage (glochidium) that is an obligatory parasite on a fish (Pennak 1989). The glochidia develop into juvenile mussels and detach from the "fish host" and sink to the stream bottom where they continue to develop, provided suitable substrate and water conditions are available (USFWS 1996). Many species of naiades require a particular species of fish to serve as the host. The host species(s) for the Carolina heelsplitter is unknown (USFWS 1996). Distribution and Habitat Requirements Currently the Carolina heelsplitter has a very fragmented, relict distribution. Until recently, it was known to be surviving in only six streams and one small river (USFWS 1996): 1. Waxhaw Creek (Catawba River system) in Union County, North Carolina 2. Goose Creek (Pee Dee River system) in Union County, North Carolina 3. Lynches River (Pee Dee River system), in Chesterfield, Lancaster and Kershaw Counties, South Carolina 4. Flat Creek, a tributary to the Lynches River in Lancaster County, South Carolina 5. Turkey Creek (Savannah River system) in Edgefield County, South Carolina 6. Mountain Creek (tributary to Turkey Creek) in Edgefield County, South Carolina 7. Beaverdam Creek (tributary to Turkey Creek) in Edgefield County, South Carolina In the summer of 2004, a population of this species was discovered in Little Fishing Creek (Catawba River system) in Chester County, South Carolina (personal observations). Additionally, a range extension of the Waxhaw Creek population was documented into Lancaster County, South Carolina (John Alderman, personal Communication 2004). Habitat for this species has been reported from small to large streams and rivers as well as ponds. These ponds are believed to be millponds on some of the smaller streams within the species' historic range (Keferl 1991). Most individuals have been found along well-shaded streambanks with mud, muddy sand, or muddy gravel substrates. The stability of stream banks appears to be very important to this species ((Keferl 1991). Threats to Species The low numbers of individuals and the restricted range of each of the surviving populations make them extremely vulnerable to extirpation from a single catastrophic event or activity (USFWS 1996). The cumulative effects of several factors, including sedimentation, point and non-point discharge, and stream modification (impoundments, channelization, etc.) has contributed to the decline of this species throughout its range (USFWS 1996). Siltation resulting from improper sedimentation control of various land usages, including agricultural, forestry, and developmental activities, has been recognized as a major contributing factor to degradation of mussel populations (USFWS 1996). Siltation has been documented to be extremely detrimental to mussel populations by degrading substrate and TCG- Freshwater Mussel Surveys Bishop Tract Mitigation Site, Anson County, NC water quality, increasing potential exposure to other pollutants, and by direct smothering of mussels (Ellis 1936), (Markings and Bills 1979)). Sediment accumulations of less than 1 inch have been shown to cause high mortality in most mussel species (Ellis 1936). Sewage treatment effluent has been documented to significantly affect the diversity and abundance of mussel fauna (Goudreau, Neves et al. 1988). Goudreau, Neves et al. (1988) found that recovery of mussel populations might not occur for up to two miles below points of chlorinated sewage effluent. The impact of impoundments on freshwater mussels has been well-documented (USFWS 1992 a), Neves 1993). Construction of dams transforms lotic habitats into lentic habitats, which results in changes with aquatic community composition. Muscle Shoals on the Tennessee River in northern Alabama, once the richest site for naiads (mussels) in the world, is now at the bottom of Wilson Reservoir and covered with 19 feet of muck (USFWS 1992 b). Large portions of all of the river basins within the Carolina heelsplitter's range have been impounded and this is believed to be a major factor contributing to the species decline (USFWS 1996). The introduction of exotic species such as the Asiatic clam (Corbicula fluminea) and zebra mussel (Dreissena polymorpha) has also been shown to pose significant threats to native freshwater mussels. The Asiatic clam is now established in most of the major river systems in the United States (Fuller and Powell 1973); including those streams still supporting surviving populations of the Carolina heelsplitter (USFWS 1996). Concern has been raised over competitive interactions for space, food and oxygen with this species and native mussels, possibly at the juvenile stages (Neves and Widlak 1987), (Alderman 1995). The zebra mussel is not known from any waterbodies supporting the Carolina heelsplitter (USFWS 1996). SURVEY EFFORTS Pre Survey Investigation Prior to conducting in-stream surveys, a review of previous surveys that had taken place in the project area was conducted. Sources consulted include the North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) systematic inventory (database) of rare plant and animal species and the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC). While there were no records within one mile of the areas to be impacted, there is a historical record of the Carolina heelsplitter from the mainstem of the Yadkin-Pee Dee River near Leak Island, approximately 3 miles downstream from the Bishop Tract. Mussel Surveys t Michael Wood, Shay Garriock, Kate Montieth, and Sharon Snider of The Catena Group investigated the Bishop Tract Stream Restoration site on January 3, 2005. Where appropriate mussel habitat was present, surveys were conducted using the standard USFWS t recommendations for aquatic species of 100 meters upstream of the most upstream point of impact to 400 meters downstream of the most downstream point of impact. ' TCG- Freshwater Mussel Surveys Bishop Tract Mitigation Site, Anson County, NC Methodology and Results Visual surveys were conducted using batiscopes and tactile methods in each stream except the mainstem Rocky River, which required SCUBA surveys. Searches for relic shells were also conducted concurrently with in-stream surveys. No freshwater mussels were found during the 12 person hours spent surveying the Bishop property. The specific results of each survey reach (Figure 1) are detailed below. Camp Branch: Deeply incised throughout most of the survey reach, especially in its lower portion, Camp Branch was likely heavily impacted by the past and current agricultural practices in its watershed. Additionally, the lower portions are heavily impacted by beaver activity. Within the upper surveyed portion (above its UT confluence) one Pysella sp. snail was found in Camp Branch. Below the UT confluence, one shell of the introduced Asian clam (Corbicula fluminea) was found. No freshwater mussels were located in the surveyed reach of Camp Branch. UT Camp Branch: Due to its predominantly wooded surroundings, this UT to Camp Branch remains relatively stable in its upper reach. Below the man made impoundment, however, the stream is ditched. Throughout the surveyed area the UT was very small, rarely over 3 feet in width making freshwater mussel habitat marginal. No freshwater mussels, snails, or the Asian clam were found in this UT. Dulla Thoroughfare and UT to Dulla Thoroughfare: The approximately 100 meters of the Dulla Thoroughfare connection to the mainstem Rocky River surveyed was an agricultural ditch characterized by unconsolidated sand, silt and mud substrate. No mollusks were observed here and freshwater mussel habitat was not appropriate. Cursory habitat examinations in several other locations revealed the stream to be degraded and often ditched, especially in the reaches intended for restoration. Due to these factors and the relatively small size of the streams, especially in the UT, it was determined that Dulla Thoroughfare and its UT contained no appropriate habitat for freshwater mussels. Rocky River: The proposed restoration efforts in Dulla Thoroughfare extend to its confluence with the mainstem Rocky River, thus the Rocky River was surveyed approximately 400 meters downstream of this confluence. A short reach above the confluence was also surveyed for habitat comparison. A variety of appropriate mussel habitats persists in this reach of the Rocky River and represents the best potential habitat that may be impacted as a result of the restoration efforts. Despite this fact and the acceptable survey conditions, no freshwater mussels were found in this reach. The only freshwater mollusk located was the Asian clam (Corbicula fluminea), which was common. TCG- Freshwater Mussel Surveys Bishop Tract Mitigation Site, Anson County, NC I 1 11 r DISCUSSION The streams within the Bishop tract proposed for restoration efforts are, for the most part, not appropriate habitat for freshwater mussels. This is due to their generally degraded, altered states resulting from the surrounding agricultural land use. Within the UT to Camp Branch and UT Dulla Thoroughfare, their small size seems to be the main factor limiting appropriate mussel habitat. The Rocky River represents the best freshwater mussel habitat within the vicinity of the Bishop tract, however, no mussels were found during the survey. It is possible that a remnant population of freshwater mussels exists downstream of the project area in the Rocky River as mussel populations within the mainstem of the Rocky River have been documented as recently as 2004. However, due to the sensitive nature of the Carolina heelsplitter, it is very unlikely that it is part of the freshwater mussel fauna potentially present in the Rocky River downstream of the Bishop Tract. It is therefore anticipated that the proposed stream mitigation within the Bishop Tract is "Not Likely To Adversely Effect" the Carolina heelsplitter. REFERENCES Alderman, J. M. (1995).
