became black with sandy loam textures down to 16 inches with 1 percent fine dark brown <br /> redox concentrations starting at 13 inches. From 16 to 21 inches soils were sandy with 20 <br /> percent dark yellowish brown redox concentrations within a brown matrix. <br /> Saturation was observed at the surface of the wetland point along with two secondary <br /> hydrology indicators. Only one secondary hydrology indicator was noted at the upland <br /> sample point. <br /> SER delineated Wetland 1 as a Type 3, PEMF, Shallow Marsh. <br /> Wetland 2 <br /> Wetland 2 is located at the southern end of the parcel and is fringe wetland of Lake Minnetonka <br /> (L 1 UBH). Dominant vegetation within Wetland 2 was narrow-leaf cattail, lake sedge and reed <br /> canary grass. <br /> Sample Transect 2-1 <br /> The vegetation transition zone along Sample Transect 2-1 at the wetland point started <br /> with a dominance of reed canary grass, bittersweet nightshade (Solanum dulcamara, <br /> FAC), and narrow-leaf cattail within the herb layer and elderberry (Sambucus <br /> canadensis, FACV� within the shrub layer. <br /> The vegetation transition to upland yielded a dominance of reed canary grass, and Canada <br /> goldenrod (Solidago canadensis, FACU) in the herb layer and elderberry in the shrub <br /> layer. The dominance test was met for the upland sample point. <br /> Soils at SP 2-1 WET were black down to 15 inches and transitioned to a gleyed matrix <br /> down to 20 inches. There were 10 percent dark yellowish brown redox concentrations <br /> from 10 to 15 inches within the profile. Textures were silt loams that transitioned to more <br /> sandy and clayey textures starting at 15 inches. <br /> Soils at SP 2-1 UP were very dark grayish brown with a sandy loam texture down to 14 <br /> inches. Soils became black and yellower in hue with 1 percent gleyed mottles and 5 <br /> percent brown redox concentrations from 14 to 17 inches. From 17 to 20 inches soils had <br /> a gleyed matrix with no mottles or redox. Textures from 14 inches to 20 inches were <br /> sandy clay loams. <br /> Saturation was present at 10 inches below the surface at the wetland point and 15 inches <br /> at the upland point. Two secondary indicators of hydrology were also noted at the <br /> wetland point. Only one secondary hydrology indicator was noted at the upland sample <br /> point. <br /> SER delineated Wetland 2 as a Type 3, PEMC, Shallow Mars6 wetland that is fringe to <br /> a lacustrine system to the south and west. <br /> DISCUSSION <br /> Svoboda Ecological Resources 1165 Fendale Road <br /> Projcct No.:2014-026 4 Robert Brook <br />
