f fine sandy clay loam to 20 inches, underlain by faintly mottled, very daric 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 conununities rjid topography. Wetland 3 corresponded to an area of mapped hydric soil (Glencoe) by the soil survey, but was not indicated on the NWI-msp. WetUmd 4 was a Type 1 (PEMCVA) soggy depression located to the northeast of Wetland 1. Dominant vegetation consisted of mowed Kentucky bluegrass with lesser amounts of yellow nutsedge. Soils were mapped as Glencoe and were assumed to be hydric. Soils were saturated at the surface and secondary indicators of hydrology included mapped hydric soil and topogra{rfiic position. Adjacent upland was mowed lawn dominated by Kentucky bluegrass. Upland soils were also mapped as Glencoe. Other than mq)ped hydric soil, no primary or secondary indicators of hy^logy v'tre observed. The delineated boundary followed a slight change in topographic position. Wetland 4 correqwnded to an area of mapped hydric soil (Glencoe) by the soil survey, but was not indicated on the NWI-map. Other Areas Ana A 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 amounts coiamon buckthorn. Based on the lack of hydrophytic vegetation and wetland hydrology. Area A wrs 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-map showed one (1) PUBF wetland, one (1) R2UBH wetlarul, and one (I) large PEMF wetland located within site boundaries. • The soil survey indicated Glencoe, Harnel and Marsh as the hydric soils present on the site. • DNR Protected Witer 8S9W was indicated on the site. • Three (3) Type 3 wetlands and one (1) Type 1 wetland were delineated on the subject property.
