The boundary for Wetland 1 exhibited rather steep slopes (a sharp transition in <br /> topography); in general there was a defined transition between the reed canary grass <br /> (wetland) and the red oak, honeysuckle, and hazel (upland). The wetland soil boring met <br /> the A2 (Histic Epipedon) hydric soil indicator with High Water Table, Saturation to the <br /> Surface, Geomorphic Position, and FAC — Neutral Test hydrology indicators present. <br /> The upland soil boring did not meet a hydric soil indicator and was lacking hydrology <br /> indicators. In general, the wetland boundary was placed where the soil was saturated to <br /> the surface. <br /> Discussion <br /> One wetland basin was delineated within the parcel bounds. Areas delineated as wetland <br /> met the three criteria required for a wetland delineation; dominance of hydrophytic <br /> vegetation, presence of hydric soil, and (at a minimum) one primary hydrology indicator <br /> or two secondary hydrology indicators under normal conditions. <br /> In order to be official the wetland delineation must be reviewed and approved by the <br /> Local Government Unit (LGU) and potentially other agencies (Local, State, Federal). <br /> Any work within or adjacent to a wetland will require Wetland Conservation Act (WCA) <br /> permits (and potentially other permits). Please consult with AEC if you plan on filling, <br /> draining, excavating wetlands within your project location. <br /> If you have any questions regarding this report or any questions about our services please <br /> feel free to contact Ben Carlson at any time(612-237-5996). <br /> Q <br /> /Thank you, <br /> -."P, lirre <br /> Ben Carlson, WDC <br /> Ecologist/Owner <br /> Arrowhead Environmental Consulting <br /> 2 <br />
