LOCAL GOVERNMENT UNIT DECISION <br />Date of Decision: 10/19/18 <br /> Approved Approved with conditions (include below) Denied <br /> <br />LGU Findings and Conclusions (attach additional sheets as necessary): <br />Fred Puzak has applied for wetland boundary & type confirmation for the wetlands located at <br />1340 Baldur Park Road, and adjacent unassigned parcels in the City of Orono, Hennepin <br />County, Minnesota. Legal description: Section 8, Township 117N, Range 23W, PIDs <br />0811723310006-0811723310018. The boundary/type approval was requested on September <br />24, 2018. <br /> <br />A wetland delineation was conducted by Jacobson Environmental on September 21, 2018. A <br />complete delineation report and WCA application were submitted to MCWD on September <br />24, 2018. One wetland was delineated on site. Wetland 1 was identified as a Type 3, shallow <br />marsh wetland. <br /> <br />MCWD and BWSR reviewed the boundaries in the field on October 5, 2018. The boundaries of the <br />wetland were adjusted as shown in the attached revised delineation figure to encompass areas meeting <br />hydric soils criteria and with high obligate sedge frequency. The area upgradient from the cattails is <br />currently mowed, and therefore is a disturbed vegetative circumstance. It is anticipated that during <br />spring conditions, when ground water is approximately at the ordinary high water elevation of the <br />lake, saturated soils would be found within 12 inches of the surface up to the 930.4 contour, furhter
