2090 SHORELINE DRIVE EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Executive Summarv
Anderson Engineering of Minnesota, LLC was retained to provide professional wetland services to identify
those areas meeting wetland criteria utilizing the 1987 United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE)
Wetland Delineation Manual (Technical Report Y-87-1; January 198� and all supplemental guidance
documents within the residential property located at 2090 Shoreline Drive in the City of Orono, Minnesota.
Geographically, the area is located in Section 15,Township 117 North, Range 23 West.
One Type 2/4, PEM16/F, Fresh Wet Meadow/Deep Marsh was identified and delineated within the project
area. It is a fringe wetland associated with Lake Minnetonka. The on-site portion of Wetland 1 is
approximately 0.51 acres in size.

2090 SHORELINE DRIVE BACKGROUND&METHODOLOGY
Backs�round
As requested by Egan, Field and Nowak, Inc., Anderson Engineering of MN, LLC completed a wetland
investigation at the specified project area located at 2090 Shoreline Drive, in the Ciry of Orono, Minnesota.
Geographically, the site is located in Section 15, Township 117 North, Range 23 West.
The wetland delineation 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 the jurisdictional extent of the wetland, and classify the wetland habitat.
Fieldwork for this site investigation was completed by Environmental Associates Tina Justen and Lucy Kozub
on August 9, 2016. The weather was partly cloudy with a temperature of 80 degrees Fahrenheit.
Methodolos�v
United 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 potential wetland
habitats.
Routine On-site Determination Method was used during this investigation. In this method, the following
procedures 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 at least 24". 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 8). 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.

2090 SHORELINE DRIVE RESOURCE 8c FIELD REVIEWS
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 F wetland within the project
area.
USDA-Natural Resources Conservation Service Soil Survey:
The Soil Survey of Hennepin County, MN(Appendix A. Figure 3)identifies hydric soil Tadkee-Tadkee loamy
fine sand within the project area.
Minnesota Department of Natural Resources Public Water Inventory:
The MN DNR PWI for Hennepin County, MN (Appendix A. Figure 4) identifies Lake Minnetonka, which
surrounds the north,west, and south sides of the parcel.
Antecedent Precipitation Data:
An analysis of the University of Minnesota Climatology Working Group's 30 day rolling precipitation data for
the previous three months(Appendix D)indicate that precipitation totals for previous weeks were above the
normal monthly range for this project area, but trending towards normal. Hydrologic conditions were suitable
for completing an accurate wetland determination and boundary delineation.
Field Review
Wetland 1: Wetland 1 is a Type 2/4, PEM1B/F, Fresh Wet Meadow/Deep Marsh fringe wetland that
transitions into Lake Minnetonka. Overall, the wetland vegetation is dominated by American water
horehound (Lycopus americanus), broad leaf cattail (Typha latifolia), and common buckthorn (Rhamnus
cathartica). The underlying soils are mapped as Tadkee-Tadkee loamy fine sand, Angus loam, and Lester
loam.The investigated soil profile met the redox dark surface(F6)hydric soil indicator. Hydrology indicators
observed include a dry season water table (water table at 20 inches) (C2), geomorphic position (D2), and
the FAC-Neutral Test(D5).
The upland buffer surrounding the wetland is a manicured lawn primarily vegetated with crab grass(Digitaria
ischaemum), creeping charlie (G/echoma hederacea), and planted ornamental flowers. The transition
between the upland and the wetland varies between relatively flat to gentle slopes, steep slopes, and
riprapped shoreline.

2090 SHORELINE DRIVE CONCLUSION
Conclusion
A portion of one wetland was identified and delineated in accordance with the 1987 United States Army
Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual within the project area located at 2090 Shoreline Drive,
Orono, Minnesota.
The wetland 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(MCWD).
The MCWD and the City of Orono have wetland buffer and shoreline setback requirements. Please
coordinate directly with the regulatory agencies regarding the requirements for this specific wetland and
project.
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.
1 certify that I performed the field analysis and wrote the report for this wetland determination.
