BACKGROUND 8�METHODOLOGY
B�ckqround
As requested by April Wysocki, Anderson Engineering of MN, LLC completed a wetland investigation at
the residential property located at 2770 Rainey Road,Wayzata, Minnesota.
Geographically, the site is located in Section 4, Township 117 North, Range 23 West. The wetland
del�ineation was completed in accordance with the 1987 United States Army Corps of Engineers Wetland
Delineation Manual and the published regional supplement to the Army Corps Wetland Delineation
Manual, Midwest Region.
The purpose of this study was to investigate the project area, identify areas meeting the technical criteria
for wetlands, delineate tne jurisdictional extent of the wetland basins, and classify the wetland habitat.
Fieldwork for this site investigation was completed by Senior Environmental Scientist Marc Cottingham and
En�rironmental Associate Kristina Justen on April 15, 2015. The weather was sunny and 72 degrees
Faflrenheit.
Melthodoloav
�
Uni�ed States Geologic Service 7.5" Topographic Quadrangle maps, United States Fish and Wildlife
Service National Wetland Inventory maps, United States Department of Agriculture Natural Resources
Conservation Service Soil Survey and available aerial photographs were consulted to initially locate
pot�ntial wetland habitats.
Rou�ine On-site Determination Method was used during this investigation. In this method, the following
proaedures were used:
1) The vegetative community was sampled in all present strata to determine whether it met
hydrophytic vegetation criteria based on the indicators identified in the Midwest Regional
Supplement.
2) Soil pits were dug using a Dutch auger to depths of 16"-36". Soil profile was noted, in addition to
any hydric soil characteristics.
3) Signs of wetland hydrology were noted and compared to field criteria such as depth to shallow
water table and depth of soil saturation found in the soil pits.
Data from sample points were recorded on Army Corps of Engineers Midwest Region Wetland
Determination Data Forms (Appendix B). At least one sample point transect crosses the delineated
wetland edge. This transect consist of an upland sample point and a wetland sample point. Other sample
points may be located in areas which have one or more of the wetland vegetation, soils, or hydrologic
characteristics present; where questionable conditions exist; or to verify the absence of wetland criteria.
Photographs are also taken at each sample point, and of the wetland and upland buffer(Appendix C).
Sample points were marked in the field with orange flags. The identified wetland boundary was marked
with sequentially numbered pink flags. All sample points and the delineated wetland boundary were
located utilizing a Trimble Geo XH sub-meter GPS unit.

RESOURCE REVIEW
Resource Review
The following resources were reviewed to supplement the wetland field delineation:
National Wetlands Inventory:
The National Wetlands Inventory (Appendix A. Figure 2) identifies one PEM1 C wetland within the
northeastern portion of the property.
USDA-Natural Resources Conservation Service Soil Survey:
The Soil Survey of Hennepin County, MN (Appendix A. Figure 3) identifies on hydric soil unit, Houghton
muck,within the northeastern portion of the property.
Minnesota Department of Natural Resources Public Water Inventory:
The MN DNR PWI for Hennepin County, MN (Appendix A. Figure 4), identifies on unnamed public water
within the northeastern portion of the property.
30 Day Rolling Precipitation Data:
A review of the 30 day rolling precipitation data collected from the University of Minnesota Climatology
Working Group (Appendix D) indicate that precipitation totals for the previous weeks were below average
in the vicinity of the project area. The overall hydrologic conditions were suitable for completing an
accurate wetland determination and boundary delineation.

FIELD REVIEW
Field Review
Wetland 1: Wetland 1 is a Type 3, PEMC1 shallow marsh. The wetland extends off-site to the northeast
and the on-site portion is approximately 0.96 acres in size. The wetland is primarily vegetated with reed
canary grass (Phalaris arundinacea) and narrow leaved cattail (Typhus angustifolia). The underlying soils
are mapped as Houghtan muck, a hydric soil. The investigated soil profile met the histic epipedon(A2)and
thick dark surface (Al2) hydric soil indicators. Hydrology indicators observed include geomorphic position
(D2), and the FAC-Neutral Test(D5).
The upland buffer surrownding the wetland consists of common buckthom (Rhamnus cathartica), boxelder
(A¢er negundo), reed canary grass (Phalaris arundinacea), and garlic mustard (Alliaria petiolata). Gentle
slopes form the transition into the wetland.
Wetland 1 drains into a roadside culvert that conveys runoff into Maxwell Bay to the west.
Investigated Area:
One additional area was investigated because it contained a significant amount of reed canary grass. This
area lacked hydric soil and wetland hydrology, and was determined to be a non-wetland(see Sample Point
A).

CONCLUSION
Conclusion
One wetland was identified and delineated in accordance with the 1987 United States Army Corps of
Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual within the proposed project area located at 2770 Rainey Road,
Wayzata, MN.
Wetlands in the project area may be regulated by several agencies at the local, State, and/or federal level.
Activities which may potentially impact those wetlands identified within this report should be discussed in
advance with the appropriate regulating agency in regards to potential permit requirements. The Local
Government Unit (LGU) responsible for implementing the Minnesota Wetland Conservation Act at this
project location is the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District.
The Minnehaha Creek Watershed District requires vegetated buffers around all regulated wetland areas.
Wetland buffers must meet the standards specified by the watershed district for any project that is
regulated under WCA.
Management:Class Base Buff�r W�dth ` Minimum Applied Buffer Width
Manage 3 20 feet 16 feet
Manage 2 30 feet 24 feet
Manage 1 40 feet 34 feet
Preserve 75 feet 67 feet
Based on the Minnesota Routine Assessment Methodology (MnRAM) wetland functional assessment,
Wetland 1 would be classified as Manage 2, and would require a 30 foot buffer(Appendix F)
This wetland investigation meets the standards and criteria described in the 1987 United States Army
Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual all applicable subsequent guidance for an on-site
determination and the results reflect the conditions present at the time of the delineation.

Wetland ID: 1, Township 117, Section 4, Range 23
Mississippi (Metro)Watershed, Lower Minnehaha Creek Subwatershed, Corps Bank Senrice Area #7
Site conditions were Normal. This wetland is estimated to cover 10 acres.
This report reflects conditions on the ground at the date of the assessment and, unless noted or implicit in the
standard questions, does not reflect speculation on the future or past conditions.
This wetland is located in or near the city of Orono
General Features
Hydrogeomorphology
The maximum water depth at this site is 12 inches, with 50 percent inundated. With an immedidate drainage
area of 25 acres, it is doubtful that this wetland is sustainable given its small catchment area.
As a Depressional/Flow-through wetland, this site has an apparent inlet and outlet. As such,
Placeholder for Depressional/Flow-through discussion
This wetland has been drained or altered 0%from its original size of 10 acres.
Soi/s
The soils in the immediate wetland area are primarily Houghton Muck. The adjacent upland, to about 500
feet, is Lester Loam.
Veaetation and Upland Buffer
The extent of vegetation in this wetland is about 40 percent and the naturalized buffer width averages 100
feet. Vegetated buffers around wetlands provide multiple benefits including wildlife habitat, erosion protection,
and a reduction in surface water runoff.
This buffer not only provides an excellent buffer for wetland water quality, it also serves as an important
resources for wildlife habitat.
Sqecial Features
There were no special features observed at the site at the time of this assessment
Veqetative Communities
The following plant communities were observed:
(See Appendix A for details on the Dominant Species per plant community)
Shallow Marsh Type 3, PEM1C. This community had a vegetative index of low and comprised 100 percent
of the entire area.
Page 1 of 4
.
The highes� rated community was the Shallow Marsh community rated at 0.1. Averaging all the communities
together, the Vegetative Diversity and tntegrity of this wetland is Low. A more accurate look uses a weighted
average; u�ing this method, this site shows a Low Vegetative Diversity and Integrity.
The majorifiy of vegetation at this site, such as it is, does not contribute to wetland function beyond water
retention and flow resistance. However, because the weighted average can "hide" smaller communities,
`always check for even small patches of high-quality species.
Functional Ratinas
Function Rating Comment
�Vegetative Diversity Low If vegetation is present, the primary communities are compromised by
extensive invasive and/or non-native species. Ongoing maintenance will
be necessary to restore native ecologic communities, although the
presence of invasives upstream will limit the success of restoration
efforts.
Additional stormwater Moderate Sediment removal would improve the ability of this site to maintain water
treatment needs quality.
Maintenance of High Due either to careful human management or lack of alteration of the
Hydrologic Ftegime outlet or watershed conditions, the wetland maintains a hydrologic
regime similar to the original wetland type. This stability supports
characteristic vegetative communities and is closely associated with
flood attenuation, water quality, and groundwater interaction.
�lood/Stormwater/Att Moderate The wetland provides some flood storage and/or flood wave
enuation attenuation. It may have either an altered or unrestricted outlet,
disturbed wetland soils, thin or little emergent vegetation (with channels)
or it may be situated high in a watershed with a low proportion of
impervious surfaces, moderate runoff volumes, loamy upland soils, and
one or more other wetlands present within the subwatershed.
Downstream Water Moderate This wetland has some ability and opportunity to protect downstream
Quality resources. The ability of the wetland to remove sediment from
stormwater is determined by emergent vegetation and overland flow
characteristics. A high nutrient removal rating indicates dense
vegetation and sheet flow to maximize nutrient uptake and residence
time within the wetland. The opportunity for a wetland to protect a
valuable water resource diminishes with distance from the wetland so
� wetlands with valuable waters within 0.5 miles downstream have the
greatest opportunity to provide protection, as do those that receive more
(and less-treated) runoff.
Maintenance of Moderate Wetland water quality is average. Sediment removal from incoming
Wetland Water water would benefit the site. Also consider reducing the amount of
Quality stormwater directed at the site. Sustaining a diverse wetland may
require additional control over upland land use and the buffer.
Shoreline Prptection Not The site does not fringe a deepwater habitat, lake, or is not within any
Applicable type of watercourse.
Page 2 of 4
Maintenance of Moderate The site provides good habitat and is relatively accessible to wildlife,
Characteristic although it may be somewhat isolated on the landscape and lack the
Wildlife Habitat rich vegetative community and complex structure that would support a
Structure wider range of wildlife.
Maintenance of Not The site is too isolated or does not remain wet enough to support a
Characteristic Fish Applicable population of fish or to allow for even temporary use as a refuge.
Habitat
Maintenance of Low Predatory fish are always present and winter habitat unsuitable as site
Characteristic often freezes to the bottom. High inputs of untreated stormwater or
Amphibian Habitat unfiltered runoff contribute to poor water quality and reproductive
conditions.
Aesthetics/Recreation Moderate Many wetlands are visible from nearby buildings or roads and are
/Education/Cultural accessible for some recreational activities. Excess negative human
influence (such as trash or alteration)will reduce the ranking of well-
used and highly-accessible sites.
Wetland restoration Not Because restoration would affect permanent structures or infrastructure
potential Applicable (houses, roads, septic systems), this site is not suitable for restoration.
Wetland Sensitivity to Moderate This wetland is moderately sensitive to stormwater; Floodplain forests,
Stormwater and fresh wet meadows dominated by reed canary grass, shallow and deep
Urban Development marshes dominated by cattail, reed canary grass, giant reed or purple
loosestrife, and shallow, open water communities with low to moderate
vegetative diversity.

V Hello Beth,
�Attached is the updated report and MN Joint Application form that should address all your comments. The following
�items are addressed:
1. Mi5sing Part 4 of MN Joint Permit Application: Part Four of the MN Joint Application is on the same page as
the applicant signature line. The signature page that was faxed over from April Wysocki cut off the Part Four
, portion. Part Four is not relevant to this application because the applicant is only requesting a boundary/type
� confirmation, and is not proposing any wetland impacts. I included that page to avoid confusion, and have
speCified that Part Four is not applicable. Please note that the applicant signature is on a separate page.
2. Inc�mplete Exemption Description in Attachment B: This was a cut/paste error on our part. We are not
req�esting any exemptions. I have deleted the exemption language from Attachment B.
3. Inc rrect Figure Labeling: Our PWI exhibit was incorrectly labeled as a Wetland Delineation aerial. The label
for igure 4 is corrected on the attached report.
Please let m know if you need anything else to issue your Notice of Application.

you are applying for a WCA exemption,please:
