Citation: Citation_Information: Originator: North Carolina Division of Coastal Management Publication_Date: Unknown Title: Potential Wetland Enhancement and Restoration Sites - North Carolina Coastal Area Geospatial_Data_Presentation_Form: vector digital data Publication_Information: Publication_Place: Raleigh, NC Publisher: North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources Division of Coastal Management Description: Abstract: The key element of the North Carolina Division of Coastal Managements's (DCM) strategy for improving wetlands protection is the development of a Wetlands Conservation Plan for the North Carolina coastal area. The Wetlands Conservation Plan includes a wetland restoration component designed to encourage proactive wetland restoration efforts and to increase the ecological effectiveness of compensatory mitigation. A GIS-based, landscape-scale procedure was developed by DCM for inventorying candidate wetland restoration and enhancement sites in coastal North Carolina. Three primary spatial data layers provide information that are assembled into the DCM restoration and enhancement site data. These layers are the National Wetlands Inventory (NWI), county soils (DSL), and classified land use/land cover from TM satellite imagery. The NWI and DSL data are 1:24,000 scale, vector data. The imagery is 30 meter resolution, filtered and unfiltered, raster data. A systematic geographic search for wetland restoration and enhancement sites is a very powerful and useful screening tool for identifying sites with the greatest ecological potential for performing valuable wetland functions. A GIS facilitates the inventory process and allows complex analyses of diverse ecological functions at the landscape level. This methodology is designed to be a decision support tool, not a decision making tool. It provides an improved and ecologically based approach to identifying wetland and riparian area Restoration and enhancement sites across river basins, physiographic regions and other large geographic areas. It does not provide a substitute for field reconnaissance and on-site evaluations by knowledgeable restoration specialists. Purpose: These data were created to assist local, state, and federal government agencies and others in making resource management decisions and in land use planning. Supplemental_Information: Because of overall data filesize, the statewide dataset was clipped by county. zipped ArcInfo shapefile sizes: (by county, in megabytes): Beaufort (/beau_rest) - 11.9 Bertie (/bert_rest) - 8.46 Bladen (/blad_rest) - 21.2 Brunswick (/brun_rest) - 19.7 Camden (/camd_rest) - 3.46 Carteret (/cart_rest) - 7.44 Chowan (/chow_rest) - 2.16 Columbus (/colu_rest) - 23.3 Craven (/crav_rest) - 9.68 Cumberland (/cumb_rest) - 6.81 Currituck (/curr_rest) - 4.55 Dare (/dare_rest) - 4.74 Duplin (/dupl_rest) - 9.85 Edgecombe (/edge_rest) - 5.61 Gates (/gate_rest) - 4.40 Greene (/gree_rest) - 1.81 Halifax (/hali_rest) - 5.96 Hertford (/hert_rest) - 6.17 Hyde (/hyde_rest) - 7.40 Johnston (/john_rest) - 9.29 Jones (/jone_rest) - 4.83 Lenoir (/leno_rest) - 4.94 Martin (/mart_rest) - 6.77 Nash (/nash_rest) - 4.53 New Hanover (/newh_rest) - 4.61 Northampton (/nort_rest) - 2.92 Onslow (/onsl_rest) - 12.2 Pamlico (/paml_rest) - 6.23 Pasquotank (/pasq_rest) - 5.55 Pender (/pend_rest) - 14.4 Perquimans (/perq_rest) - 4.87 Pitt (/pitt_rest) - 10.3 Sampson (/samp_rest) - 16.4 Tyrrell (/tyrr_rest) - 6.09 Washington (/wash_rest) - 4.24 Wayne (/wayn_rest) - 11.0 Wilson (/wils_rest) - 5.54 Time_Period_of_Content: Time_Period_Information: Range_of_Dates/Times: Beginning_Date: Varies Ending_Date: Varies Currentness_Reference: publication date Status: Progress: Complete Maintenance_and_Update_Frequency: As needed Spatial_Domain: Bounding_Coordinates: West_Bounding_Coordinate: -79.111972 East_Bounding_Coordinate: -75.420729 North_Bounding_Coordinate: 36.590113 South_Bounding_Coordinate: 33.804624 Keywords: Theme: Theme_Keyword_Thesaurus: None Theme_Keyword: Wetlands Theme_Keyword: Wetland Mapping Theme_Keyword: Wetland Restoration Theme_Keyword: Mitigation Theme_Keyword: Coastal Management Place: Place_Keyword_Thesaurus: None Place_Keyword: North Carolina Coast Place_Keyword: Eastern North Carolina Place_Keyword: CAMA Place_Keyword: Beaufort County Place_Keyword: Bertie County Place_Keyword: Bladen County Place_Keyword: Brunswick County Place_Keyword: Camden County Place_Keyword: Carteret County Place_Keyword: Chowan County Place_Keyword: Columbus County Place_Keyword: Craven County Place_Keyword: Cumberland County Place_Keyword: Currituck County Place_Keyword: Dare County Place_Keyword: Duplin County Place_Keyword: Edgecombe County Place_Keyword: Gates County Place_Keyword: Greene County Place_Keyword: Halifax County Place_Keyword: Hertford County Place_Keyword: Hyde County Place_Keyword: Johnston County Place_Keyword: Jones County Place_Keyword: Lenoir County Place_Keyword: Martin County Place_Keyword: Nash County Place_Keyword: New Hanover County Place_Keyword: Northampton County Place_Keyword: Onslow County Place_Keyword: Pamlico County Place_Keyword: Pasquotank County Place_Keyword: Pender County Place_Keyword: Perquimans County Place_Keyword: Pitt County Place_Keyword: Sampson County Place_Keyword: Tyrrell County Place_Keyword: Wayne County Place_Keyword: Wilson County Place_Keyword: Washington County Access_Constraints: None Use_Constraints: These data are advisory in nature. Although every effort was taken to ensure the accuracy and validity of restoration and enhancement site location and extent, these data contain inherent errors and limits. Surfaces mapped from remotely sensed data have certain degrees of error and accuracy limits. The actual boundaries may differ from those shown in these data. Sites smaller than one acre often are overlooked at this scale and may not be included in these data. There also may be cases in which regulatory agencies' determinations of the existence or lack of wetlands differ from these data. While every effort has been made to ensure that these data are accurate and reliable within limits of the current state of the art, DCM cannot assume liability for any damages caused by inaccuracies in the map of supporting data. DCM makes no warranty, express or implied, nor does the fact of distribution constitute such a warranty. Native_Data_Set_Environment: Present version is in ArcGIS format (version 8.3). DCM uses Windows XP workstations Attribute_Accuracy: Attribute_Accuracy_Report: A comprehensive accuracy assessment of these data was performed by DCM by visiting 212 potential restoration sites in Carteret, Craven and Jones counties. Random field points were collected by DCM staff and compared to these data. For more information see the DCM publication "The Potential Wetland Restoration and Enhancement Identification Procedure: A Geographic Information System for Targeting Wetland Restoration". Logical_Consistency_Report: These data were originally processed by USGS 7.5 minute quadrangle and by county. Upon completion, all quadrangles and all countyies, each quadrangle dissolved by the attributes included here and all were joined together using the Arc/Info "mapjoin" command and then clipped by county. Digital data and hard copy maps were checked extensively for consistency and completeness by GIS analysts and wetland specialists on DCM's staff. There may be inconsistencies in these data along county boundaries. This is due mainly to the fact that the soils data used for development of this data set were mapped by county and was not edge-matched or otherwise made consistent at county boundaries. Completeness_Report: These wetland functional significance data represent watersheds completely within the 20 coastal counties under the jurisdiction of the Division of Coastal Management and an additional 17 counties within the NC Inner Coastal Plain. The data is not a substitute for an on-site determination of jurisdictional wetlands. Enhancement and restoration sites smaller than one acre are often overlooked at this scale and may not be included in these data. Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report: Accuracy varies depending on source scale and/or resolution of the data layer from which each polygon is derived. These data were derived primarily from 1:24,000 scale data and 30 meter resolution satellite imagery.

These layers are the National Wetlands Inventory (NWI), county soils (DSL), and classified land use/land cover from TM satellite imagery. In addition, an update was performed using a more recent version (1996)of land use/land cover data. The NWI and DSL data are 1:24,000 scale, vector data. The imagery is 30 meter resolution, filtered and unfiltered, raster data. The first data set developed by DCM is the wetland type data. After these data are developed, identification of potential wetland enhancement and restoration sites can begin. An automated Arc/Info model considers the DCM wetland type, NWI classification, imagery classification, and soil type in assigning a restoration type and disturbance class to each polygon. A hydrographic data layer is used in addition to the layers mentioned previously to more easily interpret the landscape position of the sites. In addition to automated and manual processing, a limited amount of filed verification is performed as well.

Natural vegetation common to salt/brackish marshes include species which are tolerant of frequent regular flooding and high salt concentrations such as: big cordgrass (Spartina cynosuroides), saltmarsh cordgrass (Spartina alterniflora), saltmeadow cordgrass (Spartina patens), sawgrass (Cladium mariscoides), saltgrass (Distichlis spicata), and black needlerush (Juncus roemerianus). Marsh soils typically have a mucky surface layer which extends downward 30 to 60 inches thick. These organic soils (Typic Medisaprists) may be slighlty acid to moderately alkaline. Estuarine Shrub/Scrub, Estuarine Forest, Estuarine / Maritime Forest (rest_type = 2) Estuarine Shrub/Scrub/Forest sites are typically located on the landward margins just above the mean high tide area. These areas are usually irregularly flooded by wind tides (salt / brackish). Vegetation found in these areas is heavily influenced by the exposure to salt spray. In areas where salt spray is a factor, species such as saltmeadow cordgrass, wax myrtle (Myrica cerifera), red cedar (Juniperus virginiana), eastern baccharis (Baccharis halimifolia), live oak (Quercus virginiana) are found. In areas where salt spray is not as prevalent vegetation such as black willow (Salix nigra), redbay (Persea borbonia), blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum), wild olive (Osmanthus americana), yaupon (Ilex vomitoria), red maple (Acer rubrum), and loblolly pine, (Pinus taeda). Maritime Forests sites are usually found on stabilized dune systems located on the sound-side of barrier islands. Although these areas rarely flood, they are subjected to constant salt spray, wind shear, and poor soil conditions (low water, nutrient availability). Vegetation common to these dune swale communities include: loblolly pine, red maple, live oak, laurel oak (Quercus laurifolia), wax myrtle, redbay, and red cedar. Soils found on all the above sites are typically mineral and have a sandy particle size prevalent throughout the limited horizonal development (e.g., Typic Psammaquents). Swamp Forest/Bottomland Hardwood (rest_type = 4) Swamp Forest/BLH sites are found in the floodplains of major rivers and streams and non-riverine swamp Forests are found in depressional areas. These areas are usually frequently flooded and/or nearly permanently saturated with groundwater. Vegetation typically found in Swamp Forests include many water-tolerant hardwoods such as: Bald cypress (Taxodium distichium), water tupelo (Nyssa aquatica), swamp tupelo (Nyssa sylvatica, var.biflora), and Carolina ash (Fraxinus caroliniana). Common herbaceous species found include lizards tail (Saururus cernuus), and arrowhead (Sagittaria sp.). Soils found on Swamp Forest sites may be organic (Typic Medisaprists) or mineral (Cumulic Humaquepts) and usually contain pockets of sandy (alluvial) deposits. Bottomland hardwood forests sites are associated with fluvial systems whose hydrology is primarily controlled by overbank flooding. Vegetation commonly found in bottomland hardwood forests include: red maple, river birch (Betula nigra), sycamore (Platanus occidentalis), american elm (Ulmus americana), overcup oak (Quercus lyrata), green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica), and swamp tupelo. Soils common to Bottomland hardwood sites are typically young mineral soils (Typic Fluvaquents or Humaquepts). Bottomland Hardwood/Headwater Forest (BLH/Hdwtr) (rest_type = 5) Bottomland hardwood forests sites are associated with fluvial systems whose hydrology is primarily controlled by overbank flooding. Vegetation commonly found in bottomland hardwood forests include: red maple, river birch (Betula nigra), sycamore (Platanus occidentalis), american elm (Ulmus americana), overcup oak (Quercus lyrata), green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica), and swamp tupelo. Soils common to Bottomland hardwood sites are typically young mineral soils (Typic Fluvaquents or Humaquepts). Headwater sites are often found along intermittent and/or the upper end of perennial streams (first order). Headwater sites may be irregularly flooded by surface runoff although much of the hydrology of headwaters is typically controlled by seasonally high water tables (groundwater). Species common to headwater forest include: red maple, sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciflua), loblolly pine, tuliptree (Liriodendron tulipifera), blackgum (Nyssa sylvatica), and greenbriar (Smilax spp). Soils typical of Headwater sites often have an upper horizon with significant amounts of organic matter and an illuvated clay horizon (argillic horizon) (e.g., Typic Humaquults). Wet Flat (rest_type = 6) Wet Flat sites are located on the broad, flat (in the Coastal Plain) interstream divides. Typical hydrology for Wet Flats is controlled by seasonally high water tables from local groundwater input. Local rainfall may have an impact on the site's hydrology if the area is slightly depressional. Vegetation common to Wet Flats include: loblolly pine, sweetgum, red maple, willow oak (Quercus phellos), water oak (Quercus nigra), blackgum, longleaf pine (Pinus palustris), horsesugar (Symplocos tinctoria), hollies (Ilex spp.), and giant switchcane (Arunidaria gigantea). Soils of Wet Flatwoods are typically mineral which contain numerous redoximorphic features (from the fluctuating water table) with a significant clay layer (s) in the lower horizons (e.g., Typic Paleaquults). Pocosin (rest_type = 7) Pocosin sites are found on slightly raised elevations on interstream divides. They also may be found in depressional areas such as Carolina Bays or swales. Pocosins are dominated by broad-leaved evergreen shrubs. Vegetation typical of Pocosins include: pond pine (Pinus serotina), sweet bay (Magnolia virginiana), loblolly bay (Gordonia lasianthus), hollies, blueberry, fetterbush (Lyonia lucida), sweet pepperbush (Clethra alnifolia), ti-ti (Cyrilla racemiflora), and laurel-leaf greenbriar (Smilax laurifolia). Soils on Pocosins may either be organic or mineral. Many of the organic soils of Pocosins have a deep peat layer (Typic Medisaprists) while the mineral soils typically include a water restrictive (spodic) horizon (e.g., Typic Endoaquod).
