water perimeter and will be able to hold an additional 5-feet of v ater.Pond A v'ill bc 6.7 acres.
Pond B wiII be 3.7 acres.Pond C will be 3.2 acres.These ponds will drain by gravity.
To compmisate for the loss of waiers and v etlands,the City v ill purchase 4.38 acres ol'wetlands
fiona the Voas Wetland Mitigation Bank To compensate for the loss of stream channel at the
impact site the City is proposing to restore two sections (East and West Section)of an unnamed
tributary of Sugar Creek.The stream buffer on each section will be at least 25-feet wide on each
side ol the stream,as measured from the top of the bank.The buffer v ill be wider in some areas.
The total acreage of the buffered areas will be approximately 1.7 acres.The City of Waukee is the
party responsible for the stream mitigation site.

Mitigation Plan
Wetland and WUS Mitigation Plan
Proposed Aiicss Road and Waukee Greenway ~Waukee,lowe
August 8,2013 e Terracon Proiect No 08117114
6,3 Mitigation for WUS Impacts
Approximately 1,850 feet of the upper reaches of Fox Creek will be impacted by grading to
create Aiices Road and two regional storn;water retention ponds.According to USACE
guidance,WUS mitigation should be provided on a foot-For-foot basis utilizing a combination of
c cation,stream enhancement or stabilization,and vegetative buffers.Terracon utilized the
State of lvlissouri Stream Mitigation Method (February 2007)to evaluate the WUS impacts and
to propose stream mitigation measures.Copies of the evaluation tables (Tables 3 through 6)
can be found in Appendix B,
The impacted channel,WUS-1,would likely be considered a tertiary,ephemeral/intermittent and
perennial stream.Because of the conditions of WUS-1 and the upland areas,the channels would
be considered functionally impaired and impacts would be considered permanent.The stream
impacts 13ave been divided into four segments based on flaw type and impact activity.The stream
impact activities include impoundment for Regional Retention Basins B and C,pipe for the
roadway crossing and fili for the construction of the berm of Regional Retention Bas'n C.Based
on the impacted cihannel length of 1,850 feet,the proposed impacts require approximately 6,640
mitigation credits,as indicated on Table 3 in Appendix B.
The City of Waukee and Fath are proposing streambank stabilization,rock riffles,and riparian
buffer creation to generate stream mitigation credits.The stream mitigation methods are
described in the following sections.The WUS mitigation area will be located along an unnamed
tributary of Sugar Creek within Centennial Park northwest of the project area.Centennial Park is
located in the Southwest Quarter of Section 34,Township 79 North,Range 26 West,Waukee,
Dallas County,lowe.The location of the mitigation site can be seen on Figure 1 in Appendix A
and the park layout can be seen on Figure 6,Photographs of the stream mitigation area can be
seen in Appendix D.
During a site visit on July 10,2013,Terracon observed that the tributary within Centennial Park
had several areas of moderate to severe bank erosion.The segment of channel at the east end
of the site was narrow and deeply cut as shown on Photos 1 and 2.A limited amount of bank
stabilization was added to the channel near the east pedestrian bridge,as shown on Photos 3 and
4 A culvert had been installed north of University Avenue,as shown on Photos 7 and 8.A head
cut is beginning to occur within the channel west of the culvert,as shown in Photo 10.At one
location,shown on Photo 14,the outer bend of the channel is severely eroding.
The City has been mowing and using herbicides to control the vegetation to the top of the tributary
bank along a majority of the channel within Centennial Park,as shown in Photos 5,6,10,13,14
and 16.In the western half of Centennial Park,the tree cover along the channel becomes

1he City is planning to widen University Avenue within the next 5 years.Duo to the location of
existing utilities on the south side of the street,a segment of the channel may need to be re-
located during the widening project.For this reason,the segment of channel within the potei;tial
re-location area as shown on Figure 6 in Appendix A,has not been included in the stream
mitigation project.Any impacts to this segment of the stream wig be permitted through the
USACE prior to the University Avenue widening project.We anticipate that a buVi'er will be
created along this segment of channel after University Avenue is widened.
Details regarding the proposed mitigation strategy are discussed in the following sections.
Figures 6A and 66 show the existing topography of the stream mitigation site,along with the
proposed stream mitigation measures.
6,3.1 Streambank Stabilization
Fath and the City of Waukee are proposing to stabilize the banks of the Sugar Creek tributary
as component of the stream mitigation for the project,At several locations,the banks of the
channel are near vertical and are eroding.The intent stabilization is to .e-grade the banks of
the tributary to a 3:1 or greater slope,to establish vegetation along the banks,and to reduce
erosion along the channel.Tho locatioi,s of the proposed stream mitigation measures can be
seen on Figures 6,6A and 6B in Appendix A and the photos in Appendix D show the
stabilization areas.
The base of the tributary channel at the east end of Centennial Park will be widened,the slopes
will be re-shaped and a rock riffle structure will be installed to improve the flow characteristics of
the channel.Photos 1 and 2 in Appendix D show the channel in this location.The ri'ffle
structure will slow the flaw of water in the channel and create a riffle/pool section.
At one location,shcwn on Photo 14,the outer bend of the channel is severely eroding.In this
area,rip rap will likely be added to the toe of the slope and the inner bend of the channel will be
re-shaped to improve flow and reduce erosion.Rock riffles will also be installed downstream of
the two pedestrian bridges to provide bank stabilization in these areas.
One goal of the City's in the mitigation project was to minimize the impacts to mature trees
along the stream corridor.The streambank stabilization locations ware selected to minimize
impacts to mature trees to the extent possible.We estimate that 15-20 trees will be impacted
by the stabilization project.
During the July site visit,Terracon observed the tributary corridor for obvious indicators of
wetlands in the stabi(ization areas.Along a majority of the channel,the streambanks were
s',eep and un-vegetated and would not be considered wetlancis.The top of bank areas
contained mowed and maintained grass and also would not be considered wetlands.Or,e small

bench of reed canary grass was observed directly adjacent to ll",e flowing water,as shown or
Photo 12;because of its location at the toe of t'he slope,this wetland would not likely be
impacted by the proposed stabilization effort.
Based on the Missouri Stream Mitigation Method,the net benefit for the streambank
stabilization and installation of rock riffles would be considered "good".The stream mitigation
will occur on a perennial,tertiary water within the same watershed as the proposed impact.The
stream ."itigation project will likely be covered under Level 1 monitonng with protection iiy adeedrestriction.The construction of the in-stream features is anticipated to occur concurrently
with the impacts to WUS-1 (Schedule 2).Creation cf 1,355 linear feet of streambank
stabilization would result in the generation of approximately 4,200 credits,as shown on Table 4
in Appendix B.Please note that Figures 6A and 6B show only a preliminary concept;the actual
design and placement of the streambank stabilization features may vary as the stream hydraulic
factors are evaluated.
6.3.2 Buffer Creation
The City of Waukee will establish a deed restriction along 1,355 linear feet or the Sugar Creek
tributary within Centenniai Park as a second component of iArUS mitigation.The bufi'er creationareasaresplitintotwosegmer,ts and are divided by an existing culvert.The buffer creation
areas will be approximately 50 feet wide centered aiong the tributary.The east buffer creation
area covers approximately 0.7 acres and the west buffer creation area covers approximately 1.0acres.Buildings will not be ccnstructed in these areas and they will be used as a natural buffer
for the WUS.The approximate boundaries of the buffer creation areas are shown on Figures 6,6A and 6B in Appendix A.
The City has been mowing and using herbicides 'to control the vegetation directly to the top of the
tnbutary bank along a majority of the channel within Centennial Park,as shown in Photos 5,6,10,13,14 and 16.The 50-foot wide bui'fer creation area wiil be planted with wildflowers and prairie
grasses.The buffer area will reduce water quality impacts to the tributary and will enhance the
water quality within the site.The buffer will retain soil eroded rrom the upland ground and will
minimize siltation of the channel.
For the calculation of credits,the buffer area was divided irlto Stream Side A (north)and Stream
Side B (south)and into the east and west portions.The average buffer widths for the north and
south sides of the unnamed tributary of Sugar Creek are each approximately 25 feet wide.
Based on the Missouri Stream Mitigation ivlethod,the buffer credit both the north and south
sides of the stream would be based on 51 to 100%planting within the buffer creation area.The
stream mitigation wiil occur on the same tertiary water and within the same watershed as the
proposed impact The str am mitigation project will likely be covered under Level 1 monitoring
with protection by a deed restriction.Seeding is anticipated to occur concurrently with the
impacts to WUS-1 (Schedule 2)and the temporal lag is anticipateci to be zero to five years.

6.3.3 Summary of Stream Mitigation Credits
Using the Missouri method,approximately 6,640 str am mitigation credits will be required io
oiTset impacts io 1,850 linear feet of WUS-1.Installation of streambank stabilization and rock riffle
fea',urea along 1,355 linear feet will generate 4,200 credits.Creating a 50-foot wide huber along
1,3o5 linear feet of the unearned tnbutary of Sugar Creek will generate approximateiy 2,570
credits.As sumr,,arized on Table 6 in Appendix B,approximately 6,770 credits of stream
mitigation are proposed to offset the proposed impacts from Alices Roadway and the regional
stormwater retention basins.Based on the Missouri Stream Mihgation Method,the proposed
stream mitigation r;,assures should be sufficient to off-set the impacts from the project.

7.0 WORK PLAN
The objectives of the mitigation plan include creating a stream mitigation site with stable banks,
a rigle/run/pool regime,and a vegetated buffer area.An outhne of the specificaticn for the
creation of the mitigation site includes grading,seeding,erosion control,and signage.
7.1 Grading
Fath will be perfonrning the engineenng and hydraulic design of the streambank stabilization and
ruck nfrle features.Figures 6A and 6B show a preliminary concept for the proposed mitigation
plan;the actual design and placement of the streambank stabilization features may vany based
on the hydraulic analysis.Terracon will provide the desigr:for the strearr,mitigation features to
the USACE when it becomes available.
7.2 Buffer Seeding
Seeding of the buffer creation area will cccur after earth moving and shaping of the sit has
been completed.if longer periods of time occur between shaping and the recommended
plar.ting time,final disking and harrowing preparation of the soil will not tak place ur.til just prior
to planting,
Seeding will be conducted by hand or by other methods of broadcasting.The seed mixture
could be purchased from ion Exchange Native Seed and Plant Nursery in I-larpers Ferry,iowa
or from a comparable vendor.The seed should be of lowe origin,adjoining states,or as
speciried.

7.3 Erosion Control Measures
The folicwing meti.ods will be utilized during construction.Culvert and rip rap materials will be
clean,non-erodible,and non-toxic to aquatic life.Tributary creasing structures will be installed
at right angles to the channel The an;ount of excavation or fill at the tributary crossing will be
minimized and construction activity in the water will be limited to periods of low or normal flow,
where possible.Use of equipment in the drainage wifl be minimized.
Due to the size of the project,a National Poflution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES)
permit will be required.The conditions of this permit include creating a Pollution Prevention
Plan to prevent silt or sediment from moving off-site.Erosion control measures will be utilized
throughout the site until vegetation becomes established.The contractor will be responsibie for
installation and maintenance of the erosion cor.trol m asures throughout the duration of
construction until disturbed areas beccme stabilized with vegetation.
7.4 Recommended Signage
We recommend that signs stating "Conservation Easement,Do Not Disturb*',or similar
language,be posted along the buffer creation areas to protect the stream mitigation area,The
signs should be placed every 200 to 400 feet along the outer edge of the buffer.An example
sign and the approximate placement of the signs can be seen as Figure 7 in Appendix A.
