MCWD apologizes for not informing you <br /> sooner about the wetland protection rule requirement. MCWD usually requires a full scale wetland delineation for <br /> projects proposing a new single family home on a property with a probable wetland. However,since this proposed <br /> home is more than 150 feet from the probable wetland and there are no proposed impacts to the wetland at this time, <br /> MCWD is accepting a level one wetland delineation in this case. <br /> A level one wetland delineation is less costly and quicker than a full scale wetland delineation.Typically for a level one <br /> wetland delineation,the wetland delineator does a desktop review of the property and then con�rms&flags the <br /> wetland boundaries in the field.The wetland boundary flagged in the field is used to determine a 25 foot buffer from <br /> the wetland boundary.This wetland boundary and 25 foot buffer is used to record a declaration with the county. If <br /> impacts are proposed in the future to the wetland a full scale wetland delineation will be required at that time. I have <br /> attached examples of level one wetland delineations to help you with requirements for the wetland protection process. <br /> Feel free to contact me with any questions. <br /> Thanks, <br /> MIRIAM EASON <br /> District Representative <br /> Minnehaha Creek Watershed District <br /> 952-641-4586 <br /> htta://minnehahacreek.oraJ <br /> Mt�iltE1�A�#A CREEK <br /> WAiER�14#.O�IiT�1�#' <br /> 2 <br />
