l�ov��aa����,��7ll—Wetland size and shape is similar to the 1962 image,it appears that the wetland <br /> has extended along the ditch of VJillow Drive North, likely due to increased development. <br /> �99� — Poor quality photo, site conditions too difficult to determine. Original photo scale is <br /> 1:40,000 and enlarges very poorly. <br /> 2003—Wetland as staked in the spring of 2005 (Figure 5). <br /> ��S��JS���l�t <br /> SER reviewed historical photos to determine incidental status of the ditch wetland along the eastern <br /> side of Willow Drive North (Figure 6), As observed throughout the historical images, SER <br /> determined that Wetland 1 has steadily increased in size throughout the years. The growth of <br /> Wetland 1 is lilcely due to excess precipitation run-off from increased development and impervious <br /> surfaces. Additionally, typical road ditch construction creates lowland areas adjacent to the road <br /> commonly resulting in unintended wetland conditions. According to Rule 8420.0122 Exemption <br /> Standards Subp. 5. Incidental Wetlands. A replacement plan for wetlands is not required for <br /> activities in wetland areas created solely as a result of: C. actions by public or private entities that <br /> were talcen for a pe.brpose other than creating the wetland. SER requests that the road ditch portion of <br /> the wetland be considered for this eAemption. <br /> ��I����J���I�d� <br /> SER concludes that Wetland 1 has in fact increased in size and the area indicated on Figure 6 should <br /> be considered incidental and exempt from jurisdictional regulation. Total incidental area is 3789 sq <br /> ft, <br /> Please feel free to contact �en Carlson or Fr�nic Svoboda at (952) �71-1100 if you have any <br /> questions regarding the information in this report.
