Mottle color is described as 2.5 YR 4/6. <br />Mottles are less than one percent of the matrix. Mottles at ten inches are distinct, fine and <br />approximately one to five percent of the matrix. Mottles at TI-2 are distinct, very fine and <br />approximately eight inches beneath the surface. Mottle color is described as 2.5 YR 4/6. Mottles <br />are less than one percent of the matrix. Mottles at 12 inches are distinct, fine and approximately <br />one to five percent of the matrix. No mottles were found at the upland site (Tl-3). Wetland <br />boundaries were established primarily on elevation and hydric indicators (mottles). <br />Wetland #2 (WL2) <br />WL2 is a type 2/3 (PEMB/C) wetland. The dominant vegetation in the wetland fringe is reed <br />canary grass (Phalaris arundinacea). Cattail (Typha sp.) is dominant at lower elevations.. Soils are <br />described as Hamel loam (lOYR 3/1). Redoximorphic features were not observed in the wetland <br />fringe. Wetland boundaries are sharply defined and were established primarily on elevation and <br />hydrologic indicators (Transect I, Appendix A). <br />Wetland #3 (WL3) <br />WL3 is a type 2/3 (PEMB/C) wetland. The wetland fringe is dominated by reed canary grass <br />(Phalaris arundinacea), black willow (Salix nigra.) and goldenrod (Solidago sp.). Cattails (Typha <br />sp.) are dominant at lower elevations. Soils are described as Hamel lo?m (lOYR 3/1). <br />Redoximorphic features were not observed in two of the three transect sites (Tl-2 and Tl-3). <br />Oxidized root channels. 2.5 YR 4/6, were observed at Tl-1. Wetland boundaries were established <br />primarily on elevation and hydrologic indicators (Transect Tl, Appendix A). <br />Wetland #4 (WL4) <br />WL4 is type 2 (PEMB) wetland. Goldenrod (Solidago sp.), cottonwood (Populus deltoides), green <br />ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica), common buckthorn (Rhamnus cathartica), elm (Ulmus sp.) and <br />boxelder (Acer negundo) are dominant in the wetland fringe and adjacent upland areas. Reed <br />canary grass (Phalaris arundinacea) is the dominant vegetation below the wetland fringe. Soils are <br />mapped as a depressional area in Lerdal loam (10 YR 2/1). Field investigations found soils <br />resembling Hamel loam (10 YR 3/1). Redoximorphic features were not observed in the wetland <br />fringe. Wetland boundaries were established primarily on elevation and hydrologic indicators <br />(Transect Tl, Appendix A). <br />Wetland #5N (WL5N) <br />WL5N is type 4 (PEMF) wetland. Reed canary grass (Phalaris arundinacea) is dominant in the <br />wetland fringe. Cattail (Typha sp.) is the dominant vegetation below the wetland fringe. Most of <br />the wetland is open water. Soils in the wetland fringe are described as Hamel loam (10 YR 3/1). <br />Peaty muck (Gley 2.5/0) is present below the wetland fringe. Redoximorphic features were not <br />observed in the wetland fringe. Wetland boundaries were established primarily on elevation and <br />hydrologic indicators (Transect TI, Appendix A). <br />♦
