At least one sample point transect �� <br /> crosses each delineated wetland edge. These transects consist of an upland sample point, and a ; <br /> wet{and sarr�ple point. Other sample points may be located in areas which have one or more of the ; <br /> wetland vegetation, soils, or hydrologic characteristics present, or where questionable conditions exist. � <br /> Sample points are marked with orange pin flags with a pink ribbon tied on them. Sample data sheets a�e <br /> found in Appendix B. , <br /> t <br /> Results ; <br /> Basin 1 <br /> Basin 1 is a PEMC Type 3 shallow marsh comprised of 70% broadleaf cattail, 20%narrowieaf cattail, 5% ' <br /> reed canarygrass, 2% lake sedge, and 1%giant goldenrod, along with a few other species. The wetland <br /> boundary was typically a transition from common buckthom to broadleai cattail with a topographic break. ' <br /> The soils changed from dry Lester soil to saturated Muskego sail in the wetland. Soi!saturation was <br /> present in the wetland, and hydrology disappeared in the upland. Basin 1 is DNR Public Water#27- <br /> 965W. <br /> Basin 3 <br /> Basin 3 is a PEMCd Type 3 ditched shallow marsh comprised of 90%narrowleaf cattail, 7% reed <br /> canarygrass,and 1°/o giant goldenrod with a few other species. The wetland boundary was typica(ly a <br /> transition from Kentucky bluegrass to narrowleaf cattail with a topographic break. The soils changed irom <br /> Lester upland soil to Muskega soil in the wetland, Soil saturatian was present in the wetland, and <br /> hydrology disappeared in the upland. <br /> The National Wetland Inventory Map(NWI)(Figure 2) identifies the large Basin 1 wetland flagged on the <br /> subject site. <br /> According to the DNR Protected Waters Map (PWI) {Figure 4)of Hennepin County the site has Basin 1 as <br /> DNR Public Water#27-965W on the site. Figure S shows the wettands present on-site. Figure 6 is a <br /> parcel map of the area. <br /> According to the Web Soil Survey(Figure 3)the following hydric soils existed on the parcel: <br /> Muskego-Blue Earth-Houghfon soils <br /> Phofographs were taken of the site and some are included in Appendix C. <br /> Wetland Delineation-Mitigation-Permitting-Monitoring-Banking-Functional Analysis-T& E Surveys 13 <br /> Phase T Environmental Assessments-EAW's-Soil ID-Soil Analysis & Del(neation-Environmental Referrals <br /> Pond &Lake Weed Control & Fish Stocking-Tree Surveys-Natural Resource Management Plans <br />
