MAPLE CREST LANDSCAPE <br />Field Review <br />FIELD REVIEW <br />Wetland 1: Wetland 1 is a Type 1, PF01A, seasonally flooded basin. There is no discernable outlet; this <br />basin appears to be hydrologically isolated. Overall, the wetland vegetation is dominated by reed canary <br />grass (Phalaris arundinacea) and American elm (Ulmus americana). The underlying soils are mapped as <br />Muskego, Blue Earth and Houghton soils (1-16A). The investigated soil profile met the redox dark surface <br />(F6) hydric soil indicator. Hydrology indicators observed include saturation (A3), geomorphic position (D2), <br />and the FAC -Neutral Test (D5). <br />The upland buffer surrounding the wetland is a manicured lawn primarily vegetated with wood violet (Viola <br />sororia), staghorn sumac (Rhus typhina), burr oak (Quercus macrocarpa), and sugar maple (Acer <br />saccharum). The transition between the upland and the wetland varies between gentle slopes and steep <br />slopes. <br />The project area is located adjacent to Lake Minnetonka. The shoreline associated with the project area is <br />bound by riprap and steel sheet piling. <br />WETLAND ASSESSMENT <br />2709 WALTERS PORT LANE & 2710 PENCE LANE <br />ORONO, MN <br />APRIL 2017 <br />
