Gronberg Property Wetland Delineation Report <br /> • available 30-day rolling total precipitation and typical based on the three-month antecedent <br /> precipitation data(Appendix C). <br /> Wetland 1 was a Type 2/1 (PEM1B/PFO1A)wet meadow and forested seasonally forested basin <br /> wetland dominated by reed canary grass with a lesser amount of jewelweed and stinging nettle in <br /> the northwestern portion and a canopy of green ash and American elm trees with a shrub layer of <br /> common buckthorn and an herbaceous layer of jewelweed, Jack-in-the-pulpit and Pennsylvania <br /> buttercup in the southwestern portion. The wetland was saturated at the surface in the center. <br /> Adjacent upland consisted of a manicured lawn dominated by Kentucky bluegrass, common <br /> dandelion, ground ivy and white clover. Adjacent woodland was dominated by a canopy of green <br /> ash and American basswood trees with a shrub layer of common buckthorn and an herbaceous <br /> layer of garlic mustard, ground ivy,Virginia creeper and lesser amount of jewelweed. Primary <br /> and secondary hydrology indicators were not observed on the upland. <br /> The wetland boundary corresponded to a slight topographic rise that coincided with a transition <br /> from hydrophytic plant species to upland meadow, manicured lawn and upland woodland. The <br /> wetland was not shown as wetland on the NWI map,but fell in an area mapped as Hamel- <br /> Glencoe complex(Predominantly Hydric)on the soil survey. Wetland 1 continues offsite to the <br /> south of the property boundary. <br /> 4.3 Other Areas <br /> • No other areas with hydrophytic vegetation or wetland hydrology were observed on the site.No <br /> other areas were shown as hydric soil on the soil survey or as wetland on the NWI map. <br /> 4.4 Request for Wetland Boundary and Jurisdictional Determination <br /> Appendix A of this report includes a Joint Application Form for Activities Affecting Water <br /> Resources in Minnesota, which is submitted in request for: (1)a wetland boundary and type <br /> determination under the Minnesota Wetland Conservation Act(WCA), (2) delineation <br /> concurrence under Section 404 of the Federal Clean Water Act and(3)Approved Jurisdictional <br /> Determination under Section 404 of the Federal Clean Water Act for all delineated wetlands, <br /> tributaries and ditches on-site. <br /> 410 <br /> 4 <br />
