The Twiman Conservation Mitigation Easement is located in a rural area near Boonville, NC between cattle pastures and agricultural fields. The Easement Property encompasses multiple streams, which drain into North Deep Creek, that have been restored to:

  • improve water transport in a non-erosive manner,
  • improve flood flow attenuation,
  • improve in-stream habitat, and
  • increase forested riparian buffer to at least 50 ft on both sides of the channel.
