���� <br /> ABSTRACT <br /> �S�nboda Ecological Re,sow�ces (SER) yistted the above refer�ericed pr�operty on 11/19/13 to <br /> exami�te the site for thepr�renoe of aneas�reeet�ing wetland criterta. The study par�cel is loc�rted in <br /> the city of Drono,MN in Here»ep�n County (Figure 1). .7�vo wetland boundarie,r wer�e deltneated <br /> at this stte. ?�vo sumple transects we�e e.itablished along the x►estsrn ond northern boundary of <br /> the eastern wetland anea and one along the �ortheast s�de of the western x,etland in onder to <br /> charaderize thc sotl, v�egetatton, and e�risttng hyd�vlogy within the wetland-to-uplund trcinsitlo� <br /> zarie. <br /> uv�xonvc�oN <br /> The subject parcels at 3245 Wayzata Blvd Wail are an appraxi�ataly 2g ac�s combined. Thc <br /> parcels are a mix of agricaltural lands and woodlands,with emorgent herbacaous wetlsnds on the <br /> east and west aidss of tbc panceis.The topography of the sibe is�lling aad elevated betwean the <br /> two wetlands. Part of the site, now an open field, was an approveci demolition laadfili nsod for <br /> du disposal of mbble from various highway ana constructi,on demohtion sites. It was usod until <br /> the 1990s with some deaiolition material from ttta aons�uction of I 394 also hauled tb�e. The <br /> surrounding laad use is primarily widelY spaced single family h�omes and agricultiu�al lands snd <br /> the property is boniered immediately on the north aud aouth by roads. The identified wetlends <br /> were classified according to the Cowardin et al., the Circulsr 39 an,d the Eggers and R�eed <br /> classification aystems and marked with pink "Wetland De�ineation" pin flags. Tha Tochnical <br /> Documcnts section of this report contains field data sheets, plant iadicaCor statvs infaimati,on, <br /> soil survey iufnrmation,aad wetYaad definition infozmation. <br /> �+��}�S <br /> The me�ode used to delineate the subjact garcel are as deacribed in the 1987 US Atmy Corps af <br /> Engineets Wetisnds Deliaeation Manual and the 2010 Midwest Regional Supplement Manual.In <br /> the I98? Mam�al, the methods used we,� described uader the "routine" me�hods for sites less <br /> t�an 5 acree. This med�ndolagy is followed in order to a$sosa whethGr the three parametors of a <br /> we�tland are mct for ataas an the subject patcel.
