RMF Wetland Restoration Proposal (2025-01-31)
Marlborough Technology Park 100 Nickerson Road, Marlborough, MA 01752 Tel 508.786.2200 Fax 508.786.2201 tetratech.com January 31, 2025 Tom Lee – Chairman Barnstable Conservation Commission 230 Main Street Hyannis, MA 02601 Re: Rushy Marsh Farm “2025 Restoration/Replication Plan” 1541 Main Street Cotuit, MA Dear Chairman Lee, In response to thoughtful questions and concerns expressed by the Commission and it’s staff at our last meeting, the following describes in detail Rushy Marsh Farm’s proposed 2025 Restoration/Replication Plan developed specifically to offset the impacts to BVW that occurred during planting of several willow trees near the “Missing Pieces” sculpture and was discovered and reported to staff by our office following an inspection of work authorized and installed under the Japanese Pavilion Order of Conditions (SE3-5767). As described at the last meeting, the area of impact comprises 4,493 sf of Bordering Vegetated Wetland, 3,046 sf of which occurred during installation of several large diameter willow trees adjacent to the sculpture and 1,447 sf of which unknowingly occurred prior to the Commission’s approval of the sculpture installation. Review of aerial photography suggests the filling was concurrent with installation of another large willow tree in 2018. For the purposes of this proposal, we refer to them as the “2024 Fill” and the “2018 Fill” respectively. The impact areas were calculated based on a comparison of the BVW boundary as shown on 2014 NOI filings to the current edge of BVW as recently delineated by our wetland scientist. The fills and wetland boundaries are depicted on the attached Figure 1 and form the basis of our proposed restoration/replication plan. OBJECTIVE The Objective of the 2025 Restoration/Replication Plan is to restore the habitat and stormwater management functions lost within the impacted area (Restoration Area A) and to offset the lost BVW by creating a larger higher functioning wetland on the opposite side of the pond where it provides far greater habitat value (Replication Area B). All design, construction and monitoring will be developed consistent with the Massachusetts Inland Wetland Replication Guidelines (Second Edition September 2022) and is generally described below. Restoration Area A: The work in this zone consists primarily of removing the lawn and mulch areas within the area of fill and replacing it with a diverse shrub/groundcover layer intended to restore the ecological functions and habitat value otherwise lost. By replacing the lawn and mulch with a diverse mixture of native shrubs and groundcover those functions are not only restored but enhanced over the monoculture of phragmites which existed prior to the filling. Rushy Marsh Farm 2025 Restoration/Replication Plan 1541 Main Street, Cotuit January 31, 2025 TETRA TECH 2 Replication Area B: The work in this zone consists of replacing approximately 10,000 sf of fenced paddock/lawn with a 7,000-sf wetland replication and 3,000 sf of upland buffer zone planting. By expanding the BVW in this area we can offset the lost wetland area at a roughly 1.5:1 ratio while also creating a valuable habitat connection between the pond and the large, wooded upland along Pinquicksett Cove Circle where animal movement is otherwise constrained by Main Street and the fenced paddock area on the farm. The basis of design is provided in the following narrative and described in further detail in the documentation prepared by Wilkinson Ecological Design included in Appendix A. NARRATIVE Existing Hydrology and Topography To ensure an informed design and decision-making process, detailed information was collected to document topographical and hydrologic features within the study areas including topographic survey and exploratory test pits conducted since our last meeting in December 2024. Given we are not proposing bulk excavation within Restoration Area A, no test pits or other exploratory analysis was performed since that data was not needed to support the selection or placement of restoration planting. The area was surveyed and included bathymetry of the small pond adjacent to the pavilion. A total of four (4) test pits were installed within proposed Replication Area B to document soil and groundwater conditions at representative locations. As expected, test pits showed uniformly sandy soils with shallow groundwater. Redoximorphic features were observed at depths ranging from 21” to 40” suggesting an Estimated Seasonal High Groundwater Elevation no lower than elevation 2.00 (NGVD1929) with a southeasterly flow direction toward the pond and its outlet beneath Main Street. Since redox features in porous granular soils aren’t always a reliable means of determining ESHGW we calculated the average ground surface elevation at the edge of BVW using detailed on the ground survey conducted specifically for this work and determined the edge of BVW ranged reliably between elevation 3.0 and 3.5. Test Pit logs are included in Appendix B. Test pit locations and recent topographic survey information is shown on the Existing Conditions sheets of the “Draft Notice of Intent Plans” included in Appendix C. Proposed Restoration/Replication Area A - Restoration Recognizing that excavation of the fill materials is likely to result in continued propagation of the phragmites and require a significant amount of land disturbance in an area flanked by the ponds on either side of the driveway, our plan proposes to maintain the current grades and to replace the lawn with a dense collection of native shrubs and groundcover that restores the habitat and stormwater management functions of the original wetland. The four (4) large and thriving willow trees will be protected during construction and will remain in place. The sculpture will also remain in its current location along with a narrow (5-foot) band of lawn around it to view or otherwise maintain the sculpture. The proposed restoration planting will provide a valuable zone where stormwater runoff can infiltrate or otherwise be filtered by plants prior to its eventual arrival at the wetland. Rushy Marsh Farm 2025 Restoration/Replication Plan 1541 Main Street, Cotuit January 31, 2025 TETRA TECH 3 Refer to the Wilkinson Ecological Restoration Plan (January 30, 2025) and Restoration Project Benefit and Monitoring Protocol (January 30, 2025) included in Appendix A for further detail on the proposed strategy. Area B – Replication Given the challenges and less than ideal expected outcomes of trying to re-establish original grades in and around the sculpture, we are proposing to offset the wetland area lost by creating a thriving diverse transitional wetland on the opposite side of the pond where it can provide the greatest value and has the best chance of delivering on expectations. As shown on the attached submittals, a nearly ¼ acre area of the existing paddock will be re-purposed into a biologically and hydrologically diverse wetland area comprised of the following components: • Wetland Replication – this portion of the work comprises excavating an approximately 7,000 sf area of existing paddock to a depth of 2-3 feet to create the targeted wetland soil hydrology, installation of 6-12” of wetland planting soil to ensure viability of new plants and minimize propagation of invasives, and planting of a diverse mixture of wetland plants and shrubs ideally suited to the location and in harmony with the exiting vegetation. • Wetland Enhancement – this portion of the work comprises the enhancement of the approximately 1,400 sf wetland area created as part of the Town’s Main Street rehabilitation project to offset wetlands filled in other areas during that work. The wetlands were created on land belonging to the farm that was provided via drainage easement to the Town at no cost. This area will be incorporated into the larger replication strategy as well as its monitoring and maintenance program giving the Commission a single accountable party for all the wetland replications. • Buffer Zone Planting – this work includes the strategic design and installation of the mitigation planting from the Japanese Pavilion Notice of Intent to provide approximately 3,000 sf of buffer zone planting between the area of the paddock to remain and the newly replicated wetland as well as provide a vegetated/wooded upland connection along the paddock edge to the large wooded upland adjacent to Pinquickset Cove Circle. • Invasives Control – Invasives encountered in or near the areas described above will be removed or otherwise eliminated. The work described above will convert a large area of fenced lawn/paddock and a marginally successful wetland replication into more than ¼ acre of carefully designed and meticulously maintained wetland and adjacent naturalized habitat/buffer all of which support increased protection of the resource area by increasing infiltration, nutrient uptake and filtration. Refer to the Wilkinson Ecological Replication Plan (January 30, 2025) and Replication Project Benefit and Monitoring Protocol (January 30, 2025) included in Appendix A for further detail on the proposed strategy. SCHEDULE AND PROCESS The following represents the sequence of key milestones/deliverables we anticipate completing and the expected timeframe. 1. Approved Motion or Enforcement Order (March 15, 2025) – If the proposal described herein is acceptable to the Commission, we request the Commission either approve a motion accepting the proposed strategy or otherwise issue an Enforcement Order no later than March 15, 2025 directing New Rushy Marsh Realty LLC (landowner) to: i. complete design of the restoration/replication as described, ii. submit a Notice of Intent for review by the Barnstable Conservation Commission Rushy Marsh Farm 2025 Restoration/Replication Plan 1541 Main Street, Cotuit January 31, 2025 TETRA TECH 4 iii. obtain an Order of Conditions for the work described iv. construct the proposed restoration/replication v. maintain and monitor the restoration/replication and provide annual reports to the Commission as described vi. repair or otherwise replace portions of the replication/restoration if required during the monitoring period A draft motion is included in Appendix D for consideration and a draft Enforcement Order acceptable to the landowner can be provided upon request. 2. Notice Of Intent (April 30, 2025) – No later than April 30, 2025 (unless approved otherwise by the Commission), prepare and submit a full Notice of Intent including all work described above and meeting the requirements of the Massachusetts Wetlands Protection Regulations and the Town of Barnstable Wetlands Protection Bylaw. The NOI will document in detail all proposed work and associated measures needed to protect adjacent resource areas, so the Commission and the public have an opportunity to review all aspects of the work and inform design and to create a readily enforceable record of expectations and commitments. An initial draft of the notice of intent plans are provided in Appendix C to convey the level of detail and range of issues typically addressed in the plans. The plans are not intended to document the proposed work or for Commission review but rather to demonstrate that the Commission can be confident any outstanding concerns or unexplored ideas can be addressed during review of the NOI and subsequently documented in an Order of Conditions. 3. Order of Conditions (June 30, 2025) – Following a public hearing and review/approval by the Commission the OOC issued will be recorded at the registry of deeds as required. The OOC and the NOI plans will ensure the restoration/replication is constructed as expected. The target date noted is subject to change at Commission discretion based on the status of review. 4. Construction Start (August 1, 2025) – Assuming an OOC is issued in June 2025, we anticipate beginning construction no later than August 1, 2025 targeting the drier portion of the year for excavation activities. 5. Planting (Fall 2025) – Fall is targeted for planting as fall planting generally supports plant health and viability yielding better outcomes. We anticipate beginning installation of the proposed plantings no later than October 1, 2025 unless otherwise approved by the Commission. 6. Begin Monitoring (April 1, 2026) – Monitoring of the restoration/replication commences the first spring after planting. The first post construction monitoring inspection will begin no later than April 1, 2026 unless otherwise approved by the Commission. 7. Initial Monitoring Report (December 31, 2026) – Monitoring will continue through the summer and fall culminating in the initial Annual Restoration/Replication Monitoring Report submitted to the Commission no later than December 31, 2025 and annually thereafter for the duration specified unless otherwise approved by the Commission. We appreciate the Commission’s patience and consideration and hope the information submitted addresses any concerns. Our team is convinced, the proposed plan and process described above will (1) substantially restore those wetland functions most impacted by the 2018 and 2024 Fills, (2) sets out a replication strategy that results in nearly 150% more wetland area than existed prior to the Fills, and (3) does so in a location ideally suited to its viability and where it provides the greatest habitat benefit. We hope the Commission and its staff agree and endorse our moving forward. We have been authorized by the landowner to advance the design immediately if the Commission accepts the proposed plan and look forward to reviewing the project Rushy Marsh Farm 2025 Restoration/Replication Plan 1541 Main Street, Cotuit January 31, 2025 TETRA TECH 5 cooperatively and in further detail with the Commission this Spring in expectation of completing the Restoration/Replication this year.

The ground layer of vegetation throughout the project area is lawn, which is providing little benefit to the Resource Areas or wildlife. Four planted willow trees are growing in and around the project area. The willows are providing benefit to the Resource Areas and wildlife, as detailed in the Ecofunction graph on page three. The quality and quantity of the wildlife benefit is limited to a single plant species, and only in the canopy layer of vegetation. The existing section at the bottom of the page depicts how the existing layer of vegetation is limited to an overhead canopy, but lacks the biomass that can be provided by groundcover and shrub layers. PROJECT OVERVIEW The proposed work in this area will consist of removing approximately 4,500 square feet of lawn and mulch that surrounds the willows. The removal of the lawn will be done with either machine removal or herbicide treatment, followed by removal of any dead plant material. Immediately following lawn removal, all areas of bare soil will be seeded with native seed mixes listed on the Restoration Plan. The area will be supplementally planted with a diverse selection of native grasses and forbs to further diversify the groundcover layer of vegetation. Arrowwood, clethra, and winterberry will be planted to restore the shrub layer of vegetation within the project area. The enhanced ecofunction and benefits provided by the proposed native plant species are detailed in the following section.

A more complex vertical structure of vegetation will slow the movement of stormwater and increase the volume of infiltration. The proposed section at the bottom of the page depicts the groundcover and shrub layers of native vegetation that will be restored. In addition, the increase in plant diversity will also provide a wider variety of insect food, soft mast, nest sites, and variety of cover habitat covers not currently being provided. The Ecofuntion graph to the right (page five) shows the dramatic increase in the diversity of plant species and length of season that forage sources will be available. Native plant restoration recommendations are based on several environmental factors, including soils, topography, solar exposure, salt tolerance, and existing plant communities. Recommendations primarily consider the long-term health of the resource area by proposing to increase biological diversity through the removal of non-native turf grasses and the restoration of native a plant community. MONITORING OF RESTORATION (AREA A) The restoration efforts in Area A are similar to a more typical native plant restoration project. Monitoring for this area will include a Monitoring Report that will be submitted once per year, for three years. The report shall include information on the work completed during the calender year, general conditions of the restoration efforts, plant health, photo documentation of the project area, and recommended steps for the subsequent season(s) to reach the project goals.

A Pitch Pine Oak Woodland plant community is located to the west of the paddock. The ample sunlight along the edge of the woodland has supported a dense healthy shrub layer in establishing at the interface of the paddock. Refer to Image 1 on page 3. A pond and its associated Bordering Vegetated Wetland (BVW) is located east of the paddock. The vegetation in this area consists of an open canopy of native trees that includes a mix of red maple, willow, oak, holly, and pitch pine. A dense layer of mature native shrubs, including winterberry, highbush blueberry, and a high quantity of beaked hazel nut comprise a majority of the native shrubs observed in the understory. A mixture of wetland herbaceous species makes up the edge of the vegetation at the in face of the paddock. Refer to Image 2 on page 3. A small wetland replication project implemented by the Town of Barnstable is located to the south of the paddock (Main Street Wetland Replication). A closed canopy of red maple, willow, pitch pine, and cedar has formed over the wetland replication, and the subsequent shady conditions have made it challenging for the seeded and planted vegetation to survive. The existing replication area and a very narrow band of vegetation along the edge of Main Street are the only habitat connection between the Pitch Pine Oak Woodland and BVW plant communities surrounding the paddock. The poor habitat connection is depicted in the existing conditions section below. PROJECT OVERVIEW The proposed project will included conversion of 10,000 square feet of horse paddock to native vegetation. This will include a 3,000 square foot buffer of upland vegetation and a 7,000 square foot wetland replication. The existing replication area will be incorporated into the current proposal to maximize the benefit of the replication efforts and habitat connection across the site.

Image 2 - Looking northeast across the existing paddock towards the dense canopy and shrubs along the edge of the paddock. EXISTING MAIN ST REPLICATION AREA BVW MOWN PATH CONNECTION 4 PITCH PINE OAK WOODLAND WETLAND REPLICATION AREA PROJECT BENEFITS Replacing the existing mown turf with native plant species will greatly enhance wildlife benefits in two specific ways. First, the proposed plant species will drastically increase the diversity and vertical structure of vegetation through the replication area. This will provide a wider variety of insect food, soft mast, nest sites, and variety of cover habitat not currently being provided. Native plant communities have been shown to increase insect herbivory and abundance, a critical component of terrestrial food webs, while their non-native counterparts reduce abundance due to a loss of acceptable host plants, regardless of invasiveness. The increased diversity and abundance of insects creates a greater resource base for insectivores such as birds (Burghardt et al., 2009). Native wetlands are among the most productive ecosystems in the world, supporting an immense variety of life, and are especially critical to the health of coastal environments. The Ecofuntion graphs on pages five and six shows the dramatic increase in the diversity of plant species and length of season that forage sources will be available. Second is the habitat connection that will be created between the Pitch Pine Oak Woodland and BVW currently separated by the horse paddock. The proposed section at the bottom of the page graphically depicts how the dense native vegetation reconnects the existing native plant communities. Additionally, the replicated wetland would extend the availability of wetland habitat of the neighboring Rushy Marsh Pond while simultaneously improving water filtration and runoff. Well-connected networks are important in maintaining wildlife populations, regional biodiversity, and ecological health, with residential habitat creation being identified as one of the best approaches to creating larger ecosystem areas (Rudd et. al., 2002). Native plant restoration recommendations are based on several environmental factors, including soils, topography, solar exposure, salt tolerance, and existing plant communities. Recommendations primarily consider the long-term health of the resource area by proposing to increase biological diversity through the removal of non-native turf grasses and the restoration of Shrub Swamp plant community.

The report shall include information on the work completed during the calender year, general conditions of the replication efforts, plant health, and photo documentation of the project area. The report will include the following sections and data points as recommended under the Massachusetts Inland Wetland Replacement Guidelines: The hydrology section of the monitoring report should include: • Well water levels and/or staff gauge levels, as applicable. • Characterization of the hydrologic conditions as above normal, normal, or below normal using the Frimpter Method to place the weekly well readings in context. • Duration of inundation/saturation (e.g., length of time inundation/saturation occurs during the growing season, frequency of inundation/saturation, etc.). • Specific locations of inundation. The soil section of the monitoring report should include: • Evidence of hydric soils or documentation that the hydrology supports the development of hydric soils. • Results of organic carbon measurement if performed. The vegetation section of the monitoring report should include: • Vegetation planting success and native plant regeneration results as applicable. • Recommendations for additional plantings if it appears that the replacement area will fail to meet the standard of 75% coverage by indigenous wetland plants. • Invasive species presence / absence. • Projection of potential successional patterns based on observed establishment of vegetation. FINAL MONITORING REPORT - YEAR 5 The final monitoring report should be accompanied by an as-built plan that demonstrates that the replacement area was constructed according to plans submitted with the Notice of Intent and required by the Order of Conditions, and is in compliance with regulatory performance standards. The final monitoring report should indicate the conditions at the replacement site (including stabilization of embankments) and describe in detail how the functions of the impacted wetland have been replicated by the replacement wetland. 7 WOOLGRASSScirpus cyperinus BROOM SEDGEAndropogon virginicus FOWL BLUEGRASSPoa palustris SOFT RUSHJuncus effusus FOX SEDGE Carex vulpinoidea NovMayAprilMarchPlant Species Wildlife Benefit June July OctSeptAug food for breeding birds food for wintering birds cover for wildlife ECOLOGICAL FUNCTIONS food for fall migrating birds nesting sites for birds food for spring migrating birds nectar producer Information for this graph has been compiled from the following souces: Missouri Botical Garden Plant Finder https://www.missouribotanicalgarden.org/plantfinder/plantfindersearch.aspx Native Plant Trust https://plantfinder.nativeplanttrust.org Illinois Wild Flowers https://www.illinoiswildflowers.info/ Parire Moon Nursery https://www.prairiemoon.com/ Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center https://www.wildflower.org/plants/ seedhead (grasses) food for mammals pollen producer food for humans food for caterpillars PROPOSED GRASS PLANT SPECIES ECOFUNCTIONS GrassesCOSMOS SEDGECarex comosa GREEN BULRUSHScirpus atrovirens HOP SEDGECarex lupulina LURID SEDGECarex lurida RATTLESNAKE GRASSGlyceria canagensis Rushy Marsh Farm 2025 Restoration/Replication Plan 1541 Main Street, Cotuit January 31, 2025 Appendix B Test Boring Logs Rushy Marsh Farm 2025 Restoration/Replication Plan 1541 Main Street, Cotuit January 31, 2025 Appendix C Draft Notice of Intent Plans T 0+50 0+501+502+503+50 4+50 5+506+50 7+50 8+50 9+5010+5011+50 12+5013+500+50 1+50 2+5 03+50T 0+50 0+501+502+503+50 4+50 5+506+50 7+50 8+50 9+5010+5011+50 12+5013+500+50 1+50 2+5 03+50N 0 SCALE: 1000'2000' 1" = 2000' Project Location 0 SCALE: 150'300' 1" = 300' N SHEET NO.:SHEET TITLE: C-001 Cover, Subject Parcel and Key Plan C-101, 102 Existing Conditions and Erosion Control Plan C-201, 202 Grading and Drainage Plan C-301, 302 Planting Plan C-401, 402 Construction Details MAIN S T R E E T RUSHY MARSH POND WAQU OI T R O A D PINE RI D G E R O A D FULLERSPINQUI CKSET COVE CIRCLE TOPSAIL CIRCLERUSHY MARSH ROADMARSHROADwww.tetratech.com CLIENT INFORMATION:PROJECT LOCATION: Tt PROJECT No.: ISSUED: 01/31/2025 - Draft Notice of Intent Plans SURVEYOR: LANDSCAPE ARCHITECT: WETLAND DESIGNER: Wilkinson Ecological Design, Inc. 28 Lots Hollow Road Orleans, MA 02653 Precision Land Surveyors 32 Turnpike Road Southborough, MA 01772 Chris Dindal Landscape Architecture LLC 34 Mohawk Drive Acton, MA 01720 Rushy Marsh Farm 2025 Restoration / Replication Plan Notice of Intent Plans 1541 Main Street Cotuit, MA 02635 143-89057-24012 New Rushy Marsh Realty LLC 501 West 30th Street, 40th Floor New York, NY 10001 100 Nickerson Road Marlborough, MA 01752 Phone: (508) 786-2200 Fax: (508) 786-2201 VICINITY MAP: C-102, 202, 302 C-101, 201, 301 4554 3 3 5 4 6 4 3 533 334 5 5 5 6 7 8 9 10 117 34SUBJECT PROPERTY LINE PARCEL#: 017007 PREVIOUS DELINEATED BVW (2014±) NEWLY DELINEATED BVW (2025) PREVIOUS DELINEATED BVW (2014±) NEWLY DELINEATED BVW (2025) N 0 SCALE: 5'10'20' 1" = 10' Checked By: Drawn By: Project No.: Designed By:www.tetratech.comMARKDATEDESCRIPTIONBY1/31/2025 2:57:28 PM - P:\89057\143-89057-24012_PRECONST_PERMITS\CAD\SHEETFILES\WETLAND REPLICATION\C-101 EXISTING CONDITIONS PLAN.DWG - FOSTER, ALEX1 A B C D E F 2 3 4 5 6 7 Bar Measures 1 inch Copyright: Tetra TechDate:100 Nickerson RoadMarlborough, MA 01752Phone: (508) 786-2200 Fax: (508) 786-2201Rushy Marsh Farm2025 Restoration / Replication Plan1541 Main Street, Cotuit, MA 02635143-89057-24012 January 17, 2025 Checked By: Drawn By: Project No.: Designed By:www.tetratech.comMARKDATEDESCRIPTIONBY1/31/2025 2:57:28 PM - P:\89057\143-89057-24012_PRECONST_PERMITS\CAD\SHEETFILES\WETLAND REPLICATION\C-101 EXISTING CONDITIONS PLAN.DWG - FOSTER, ALEX1 A B C D E F 2 3 4 5 6 7 Bar Measures 1 inch Copyright: Tetra TechDate:100 Nickerson RoadMarlborough, MA 01752Phone: (508) 786-2200 Fax: (508) 786-2201Rushy Marsh Farm2025 Restoration / Replication Plan1541 Main Street, Cotuit, MA 02635143-89057-24012 January 17, 2025 C-101 JJA JJA SPRExisting Conditionsand Erosion Control Plan1.WETLAND RESOURCE AREAS SHOWN FLAGGED DECEMBER 2019 BY TETRA TECH OR APPROVED IN PREVIOUS APPLICATION AS NOTED. 2.ELEVATIONS, IN FEET, REFER TO NATIONAL GEODETIC VERTICAL DATUM OF 1929 (NGVD29) 3.UNDERGROUND UTILITIES WERE COMPILED FROM ON SITE SURVEY AND AVAILABLE UTILITY COMPANY AND PUBLIC AGENCY RECORD PLANS AND ARE APPROXIMATE ONLY.
