7. Project Abstract (concise summary of the project – DO NOT EXPAND SPACE PROVIDED)
Charlotte-Mecklenburg Storm Water Services published the McDowell Creek Watershed Management
Plan in March 2008. McDowell Creek flows into Mountain Island Lake at McDowell Creek Cove. This area
is just upstream of the drinking water intake that processes 80+ million gallons of raw water per day.
McDowell Creek Cove is documented as having some of the poorest water quality conditions among
reservoirs in Mecklenburg County. The 2008 management plan seeks to address pre-existing sources of
pollution through targeted implementation of stream restoration techniques, BMPs and storm water
ordinance enforcement and implementation. The goal is to create a fully functioning, supporting stream
ecosystem with a safe and secure water supply downstream in McDowell Creek Cove. The McDowell
Creek Watershed is comprised of a portion of the Towns of Huntersville and Cornelius. Both towns
recognize the importance of protecting and enhancing water quality in their jurisdictions. Moreover, the
Towns have both implemented water quality improvement projects through significant investment of funds
generated from their portion of the local Storm Water Fee.
The McDowell Creek Watershed Management Plan identified the 776-acre sub-watershed containing
Willow Pond as the 2nd highest ranked sub-watershed for stream channel management opportunities.
Therefore, Cornelius reached out to Charlotte Mecklenburg Storm Water Services to partner with them to
implement the stream corridor improvement project presented in this grant application when the area was
also identified for greenways. The stream restoration phase of the project is expected to be constructed
simultaneously with the greenway phase to provide the citizens access to a natural stream ecosystem
within the older developed area of Cornelius that will also include educational opportunities for the
students of JV Washam Elementary and a greenway linking the downtown area of Cornelius with the
Washam Potts Road area.
The stream project proposed in this grant application is the next step of the implementation of the
McDowell Creek Watershed Management Plan. It is comprised of 3 components based upon funding
source:
Component 1: Removal of the failing Willow Pond Dam and the restoration of the resultant stream as
well as approximately 250 feet of stream downstream of the Dam. A NC Division of Water
Resources – Water Resources Development Grant Program (DWR) application will be submitted
for Component 1 with the Town of Cornelius providing matching funds.
Component 2: Restoration of approximately 1600 feet of 2 tributaries of McDowell Creek extending from
the downstream extent of Component 1 to McDowell Creek and a second tributary from
McDowell Creek upstream to JV Washam Elementary School. This grant application is being
submitted for Component 2 with the Town of Cornelius providing matching funds.
Component 3: Restoration of approximately 600 feet of McDowell Creek. Component 2 will be funded
entirely by Charlotte Mecklenburg Storm Water Services.
The proposed project is approximately 1600 feet downstream of the NC 319 funded Upper McDowell
Creek Project, which was completed in 2010. Component 2 of the proposed project will result in the
direct reduction of approximately 221 tons per year of sediment entering McDowell Creek. This results in
an approximate cost benefit ratio of less than $1.00 per pound of sediment removed, which is an
excellent return on investment for urban stream restoration.

11. Does this proposal address needs that were identified in a DWR basin plan? If yes, please
identify the specific need and the basin in which the need is outlined.
Yes
Explanation:
The McDowell Creek Watershed plan identified in-stream erosion and lack of in-stream habitat
as the primary reasons for the impaired stream biology. Stream restoration was identified as
the most effective technique to address the causes of impairment. The proposed project will
address the causes of impairment through restoration of the stream corridor and installation of
in-stream habitat features. The need for stream restoration and habitat improvement is
identified throughout the watershed in the McDowell Creek Watershed Management Plan.
12. Do you propose to install agricultural BMPs or other management measures that would be
eligible for NC Agricultural Cost Share Program (ACSP) funding? If Yes, please document that the
demand for ACSP funding in your county exceeds the supply, prompting your application for a

Has landowner commitment been secured for proposed project site(s)?
There is an existing agreement between the Willow Pond Home Owners Association and
the Town of Cornelius to provide the town with the property if the project is funded.
Additionally, most of the property needed for the project is in public ownership (Town of
Cornelius or Mecklenburg County). The remaining 3 private property owners are
experiencing severe erosion on their property and are expected to grant easements for the
construction and long term maintenance of the project.
What will you do to ensure maintenance of project(s) beyond grant timeline? (List
staff positions that will maintain, time/funding dedicated)
Charlotte Mecklenburg Storm Water Services inspects, monitors and maintains all projects
constructed under the Capital Improvement Program. Inspections are conducted annually
for the first several years after construction and then every other year 5 years after
construction. Necessary maintenance during the warranty period (usually 12 months after
completion) is funded and completed by the contractor. Thereafter, maintenance is
completed by Charlotte Mecklenburg Storm Water Services Operations Program with
funding from either the Town of Cornelius or Mecklenburg County (depending upon
system ownership).

Goals and Objectives
The primary goal of the project is to continue the implementation of the McDowell Creek Watershed
Management Plan. Specifically, Component 2 (See Figure 4) of the proposed project will restore 1600
feet of highly degraded tributary stream in the headwaters of McDowell Creek. Component 2 is expected
to remove 221 tons of sediment annually from McDowell Creek. Additionally, component 2 presents a
unique opportunity to restore streams in a highly impacted catchment where development occurred prior
to storm water control ordinances. The work will re-engineer the stream corridor to ensure stability,
habitat and long term ecological uplift.
Approaches used to Achieve Objectives
Existing Conditions
Willow Pond Downstream Reach (Figure 4):
After the pond transitions from the rip-rap channel, it has a torturous meander about 200 feet below the
spillway. On the left (east) outside of this bend is the highest, most erosive bank in the study reach (15+
feet), as shown below in the images below. This bank is located immediately behind the lots at the cul-de-
- 13 -
NC Application for Section 319 NPS Pollution Control Grant
sac at the end of Willow Pond Road. After the stream flows past these residential parcels, it flows onto
several Mecklenburg County-owned parcels. On these parcels, typically the left (east) bank is relatively
stable and the right bank is taller, vertical, unstable bank. The average slope in this reach is estimated to
be <2% and the bed is comprised mostly of sand. The bed-form diversity (riffle and pools) is poor.
Coachmans Wood Lane Reach (Figure 4):
The Coachmans Wood Lane Reach (Coachman’s Reach) has varying degrees of instability and visual
impairments. The stream is a backyard feature for the homes at the end of Coachman’s Wood Lane. The
channel(s) in these backyard areas have been filled with 6-12 inches of rip-rap to help stabilize it (see
images, below). Below the cul-de-sac, there has been a recent repair of the stream banks (likely by
Charlotte-Mecklenburg Utility Department) using coir fiber matting (see images, below). Additionally, the
intermittent channel upstream of the Coachman’s Wood Lane Reach is severely eroded up to the culvert
under Coachman’s Trace and is endangering decks and foundations of several homes on Coachman’s
Wood.
Proposed Approach
There are multiple opportunities consistent with the McDowell Creek Watershed Management Plan, to
improve water quality, ecological functions, and aesthetics in the Component 2 project corridor. These
opportunities include implementing stream corridor restoration or enhancement. The project will seek to
restore natural hydrology, habitat and vegetation where there currently is none through creation of a more
natural stream in place of the highly degraded current conditions. The stream restoration and
enhancement work can be complimented with new greenway trails, which may be constructed at the
same time as the stream project. The greenway trails will provide connectivity for the surrounding
neighborhoods to the future greenway along the upper tributary to McDowell Creek. This also will allow
the stream corridor improvements to be showcased to the surrounding community. The proposed
greenway shown on the concept plan (Figure 5) connects to the following public streets: South Hill Street
(future road extension), Willow Pond Road, Flora Lane (future road extension), Coachman’s Wood Lane,
Peachway Drive (future road extension); and up to J.V. Washam Elementary School. These connections
- 14 -
NC Application for Section 319 NPS Pollution Control Grant
are shown to connect to the future greenway along the upper tributary to McDowell Creek. The new
greenway trail will require several stream crossings within the project area as shown on Figure 5.
Additional future greenway connectivity may be necessary in the project area. Existing transportation
plans indicate that Flora Lane, South Hill Street and Peachway Drive may in the future cross through the
project area. If this occurs, the design of the new road crossings will ensure limited impact to the project
area and improve greenway connectivity and public interaction and use of the project area.

Measurable Outputs
(e.g., stream miles restored, sediment load reduced, fish community improvement; please

Component 2 of the proposed project will result in the restoration of approximately 1600 feet of highly
degraded stream channel in the headwaters of McDowell Creek in Cornelius, NC. The restoration is
expected to reduce the sediment load produced by the restored channel to zero, ie. the sediment load
entering the restored reach is expected to equal the sediment load exiting. Geomorphic assessments
estimate the reduction will be approximately 221 tons per year. Post construction monitoring will confirm
the estimated load reduction. The benthic and fish communities are expected to recolonize the restored
stream. Component 2 will also provide a linkage to Component 1 of the proposed project for the
movement of macroinvertebrates and fish to the new stream channel being created in place of Willow
Pond.
