The boundary of the <br /> wetland located in the southeast,portion ofi'the property was marked in the field with pink <br /> _ - ribbon fied to shrubs,trees and the fence. The wetland located in the southwest portion of tlie <br /> ' , properry was depicted by the fence along the wetland edge so no pink flagging was utilized, . <br /> Wetland boundaries were established in the�field�primarily by vegetation.
