RESULTS <br /> Background Informatio�r(Office-Based Investigation) <br /> , The NWl map(E:ccelsior Quadrangle}illusti�ates one National Wetland Inventory�vetland present on the <br /> i ' property (Figuce 2). The NWI �vetland is designated as a PEi�iCd wetland, that is a wetland (P) that <br /> Itarbo�s emergent vegetation(EVl)with a seasonally flooded moishire regime(C)where d itching is p�sent <br />� �d)• <br />� <br />� <br /> i <br />' 'n�e Web Soil Su�vey of Orono and Hennepin County,Figure 3,classifies six soil map units present on the <br /> i ' subject property(See Figure 3}, The map units that are classified as "non-hydric"soi{s are the Lester- <br />! Kilkenny comple:c and the Lei�lal Loam. The sflils classified as "lrydric" are the Hame!-Glencoe <br />� depressional comples ancl the Klossner depressional (Web Soil Survey website).These soil classifcation <br />' boundaries are illustrated on Figure 3 with fi�rther detail given in tl�e legencl.Soil series descriptions are given <br />� <br /> f in the Technical Documentation Section. <br /> The Minnesota Department ofNatural Resources,State Protected Waters�tap(Public Water[nventory), <br /> indicates no Public Waters present�vithin the property(Figu��e 4). <br />� Site Visit <br /> SER ecologists e�nined the s«bject property for areas meeting ju�lsdictional wetland criteria during the site <br />` visit. One wetland meeting the jurisdictional criteria of a wetland,for�vhich a boundary was deteimined and <br /> i ` delineated,�vas flagged. The appro:cimate�vetland boundary is o�Rlined in yellow(Figure S). <br />� <br /> I Wetland 1 consists of nvo wetland communities and was characterized by SF.R as a Type 2/3 PE1�IB/Cd <br /> i � Fresh {Wet) N[eadow (I S B) and Shallaw �[arsh (13B). A type 2 and 3 wetland is the Circular 39 <br /> I classification for wet meado�v and shailow marsl�respectively.The"B"moditier is a pac�t of the Cowardin <br />; � Classification that illustrates ttte moisture regime as be'sng saturated. <br />� i <br />� Dominant vegetatioii within the Fresl; (Wet) Meado�v consisted of reed canaiy grass (Phalaris <br /> i rn�irfulinacea, EACV� and water smart�veed (Polygonu�rr amphibiirjrr,OBL}, Ditching��as observed <br />; within the wetland e��tending in an east-west and no�th-sauth direction.Narro�w leaf cattail was observed <br /> within the ditched portion of d�e wetland along the east-wesk extension on the�vesteim po�tion.The ditching <br /> along the east-west portion remained laigely continuous bt�t some intermittence along the ditch extending <br />= noith-south was observed.
