fine sandy clay loam to 20 inches, underlain by faintly mottled, very dark gray fine sandy clay loam to 24+ inches. No primary or secondary indicators of hydrology were observed. The delineated wetland boundary followed a change in plant communities and topogrq>hy. Wetland 3 coneqNUided to an area of m^iped hydric soil (Glencoe) by the soil survey, but was not indicated (Hi the NWI-nuq). Wedmti 4 was a Type 1 (PEMC7A) soggy depression located to the northeast of Wetland 1. Dominant vegetation consisted of nu>wed Kentudcy bluegrass with lesser amounts of yellow nutsedge. Soils were mapped as Glencoe and were assumed to be hydric. Soils were saturated at die surfiKe and secondary indicators of hydrology included mapped hydric soil and topographic Adjacent iqiland was mowed lawn dmninated by Kentucky bluegrass. Upland soils were also nugiped as Glencoe. Other than mapped hydric soil, no primary or secondary indicators of hydrology were observed. The delineated boundary followed a sli^t diange in topographic position. Wetland 4 coireqponded to an area of mqiped hydric soil (Glencoe) by the soil survey, but was not indicated on the NWI-map. ler Areal was indicated as a hydric soils area (Hamel) by the soil survey. In the field, the center of Area A was dominated by Siberian elm, smooth brome and Kentucky bluegrass with lesser tnouirtu common budctfioriL Based on the lack of hydrophytic vegetati'^n and wetland hydrology. Area A was assumed to be non-wetland. IV. SUMMARY • The Fox Street site was inspected on May 27,2004 for the presence and extent of wetland. • The NWI-nuq} showed one (1) PUBF wetland, one (1) R2UBH wetland, and one (1) large PEMF wetland located widiin site boundaries. • The soil survey indicated Glencoe, Hamel and Marsh as the hydric soils present on the she. • DNR Protected Water 8S9W was indicated on the site. • Three (3) Type 3 wetlands and one (1) Type 1 wetland were delineated on the subject rty.
