The soil survey also indicates a small <br />intermittent drainage coming out of the basin. This drainage was delineated as <br />wetland 3. Hamel, Hayden and Lester loams i.re on the Hennepin County <br />hvdric soils list. <br />Boundary soils were field identified as black (10 YR 2/0) from 0 to 12 inches. <br />Mottles were very slight and a high organic content was noted. <br />Soils inside the wetland boundary were identified as black (10 YR 2/0) silty <br />clay from 0 to 12 inches. Mottles were colored as dark brown (10 '):'R 3/3) and <br />gray (10 YR 5/1). The mottles occur throughout the soil profile. <br />Upland soils were field identified as very dark grayish brown (10 YR 3/2) from <br />0 to 12 inches. <br />Inside the wetland basin, soils were saturated at 12 inches.
