For those of you who have not heard, Dr. Nelson received a Watershed Hero award (Outstanding Contribution Award)from the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District for this restoration project. It is wonderful and encouraging to see such recognition. AES conducted numerous assessments of the site throughout the 2015 growing season. Attached is a photo from our recent(September 2, 2015) monitoring visit,showing the Deep Marsh and the densely vegetated, native-dominated Wet Meadow. The designed and desired hydrology has been maintained throughout the growing season. As expected, purple loosestrife and cattail have continued to pressure the wetland,so AES collected (off-site)and released (on-site) purple loosestrife beetles,we clipped loosestrife flowering heads prior to seed drop, and we herbicided cattails. Reed canary grass is present in a few areas along the wetland's edge and is also being treated. AES will continue to monitor and practice adaptive management to maximize success of the project and achieve performance standards. The two rain gardens have been constructed, and AES has been authorized to install a bat house and wood duck nesting boxes. We are continuing our wildlife surveys,and our annual wetland monitoring report is being drafted for submittal before year's end. On July 27, 2015,the MPCA confirmed termination of the Construction Stormwater Permit for the project(pasted below). We would appreciate clarifications from the City of Orono (related to Land Use &Conditional Use Permit and 1 4 - - Wetland Alteration Permit)and MCWD(related to Water Resource Permit and associated Joint Escrow/Letter of Credit) regarding termination of other permits and release of escrow funds. Thank you in advance. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you again for your support of this innovative ecological restoration/enhancement project. Have a good fall and winter. - Doug From: Olafson, Barbara (MPGA) [mailto:barbara.olafson(dstate.mn.usl Sent: Monday,July 27, 2015 1:54 PM To: Doug Mensing Cc: Kim Chapman; Matthew Lasch Subject: Construction Stormwater Permit Termination for Nelson Restoration Project CSW Construction Stormwater Permit Preferred ID C00039624 has been terminated.

R.23W. Report prepared by: Date: Applied Ecological Services, Inc. December 16, 2015 PROJECT OVERVIEW The Nelson Restoration project entails ecological restoration/enhancement of a 2.98-acre severely degraded shallow cattail marsh, plus enhancement of an additional 2.68 acres of upland buffer located in Orono Township, Minnesota (Figure 1). Pre-construction wetland vegetation was dominated by invasive cattails, purple loosestrife, and reed canary grass. Using the Minnesota Routine Assessment Method (MnRAM), the wetland scored as "Low"to "Moderate" in almost every category, with Vegetative Diversity/Integrity scoring "Low"for all wetland plant communities present. In early 2015, in compliance with acquired permits, approximately 2,588 cubic yards of wetland soils (54 ft deep) were excavated from a 0.5-acre portion of the wetland in order to create an area of Deep Marsh habitat and to control invasive vegetation (Figure 2). The upper foot of soil (approximately 807 cubic yards) was infested with propagules of invasive vegetation (including cattail tubers and purple loosestrife seeds), and therefore was removed from the site. The remainder of the excavated material was thin-spread (:51 ft thick) over lower portions of the wetland to a maximum elevation of 964.5 feet, lower than the elevation of the delineated wetland boundary, in order to maintain wetland conditions and create saturated Wet Meadow habitat (Figure 2). In order to maintain possible flows in the wetland, two meandering swales were constructed between the Deep Marsh area and two existing culverts beneath Tonkawa Road. The project is expected to restore the wetland to a diverse habitat complex of native MN Board of Water and Soil Resources Nelson Restoration Site(12-0975)—2015 Monitoring Report 1 r Wet Meadow, Deep Marsh, and Enhanced Lowland Forest. Surrounding upland buffer areas are also being restored through removal of invasive plant species such as common buckthorn (Rhamnus cathartica),garlic mustard (Alliaria petiolata), and narrowleaf bittercress(Cardamine impatiens). In addition, native trees, shrubs, herbaceous plants, and seeds have been installed to diversify the upland buffers. In 2015,two rain gardens were constructed to manage and treat 1.42 acres of suburban runoff prior to entering the wetland. A pre-existing compost pile located near the wetland was re-graded and stabilized, and will be planted with native vegetation. The project will result in "no-loss" of wetland quantity, quality, or biological diversity. Rather, wetland functions and values are expected to increase significantly, largely due to the increase in uncommon native Wet Meadow habitat. Additionally,the created Deep Marsh area will provide greater habitat diversity within the wetland, benefitting native waterfowl and waterbirds (previously not able to use the wetland), as well as provide habitat for aquatic macroinvertebrates(such as dragonflies and damselflies), reptiles, amphibians, and possibly small fish. In 2016, basking logs (for turtles,frogs, and other wildlife) will be installed at the edges of the Deep Marsh, and the upland buffer will also be enhanced by installation of wood duck nest boxes and a bat house.

Plant species observed during meander searches and percent cover were recorded by major plant community type (i.e., Wet Meadow, Deep Marsh, Enhanced Lowland Forest and Enhanced Upland Forest).Total invasive and native species cover in the wetland were estimated using weighted averages of mapped species populations. Because surface water outlets were not modified as part of the restoration project, hydrology was documented simply by mapping locations of inundation and saturation throughout the wetland. This enabled an assessment of restoration success in terms of achieving the intended hydrologic regime of the Wet Meadow, which was saturated soil conditions. Site photography was also used to document vegetation communities, surface water hydrology, and other site conditions. MN Board of Water and Soil Resources Nelson Restoration Site(12-0975)—2015 Monitoring Report 3 RESULTS Vegetation The Nelson Restoration site consists of several plant communities, which have been classified as Wet Meadow(approximately 38%of the site), Deep Marsh (approximately 9%of the site), Enhanced Lowland Forest (approximately 14%of the site) and Enhanced Upland Forest (approximately 37%of the site). Figure 2 illustrates the site's designed plant communities, and Table 2 represents the acres planned and observed for each plant community. Table 2.Vegetative communities planned and observed: Plant Community Acres Planned Acres Observed Wet Meadow* 2.14 2.14 Deep Marsh* 0.50 0.50 Enhanced Lowland Forest(wetland portion)* 0.35 0.35 Enhanced Lowland Forest(upland portion) 0.47 0.47 Enhanced Upland Forest 2.07 2.07 Wetland Edge Plantings(road bank of Tonkawa Road) 0.08 0.08 Rain Garden (Wet Meadow) 0.05 0.05 Total Wetland Area 2.98 2.98 Total Upland Area 2.68 2.68 Total Area 5.66 5.66 *Vegetation communities used to calculate Total Wetland area. Restored/enhanced plant communities reflected the acres designed, but the geometry of the Deep Marsh was adjusted during construction (Figure 3). This field adjustment consisted of shifting the Deep Marsh slightly west to avoid excavation of the shallower wetland soils at the eastern edge of the existing wetland. The 0.5-acre size of the designed Deep Marsh was maintained. • Wet Meadow-Thirty-two plant species were documented in the Wet Meadow; dominant species included tall manna grass (Glyceria grandis), curlytop knotweed (Persicaria lapathifolia), and purple loosestrife (Lythrum salicaria). In addition to the "plant community" species list and percent coverages, a 10mx10m plot was established in this dominant plant community to provide a more detailed assessment of a representative area (Figure 3). Table 3a presents all plant species documented in the site's Wet Meadow as well as the Wet Meadow plot. • Deep Marsh- Eight plant species were documented in the Deep Marsh;the most dominant species (10%cover) was narrow-leaved cattail (Typha angustifolia) or its hybrid. Table 3b presents all plant species documented in the site's Deep Marsh. • Enhanced Lowland Forest-Thirty-one species were documented in the Enhanced Lowland Forest; dominant species included green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica), spotted MN Board of Water and Soil Resources Nelson Restoration Site(12-0975)—2015 Monitoring Report 4 touch-me-not (impatiens capensis), and reed canary grass (Phalaris arundinacea). Table 3c presents all plant species documented in the site's Enhanced Lowland Forest. • Enhanced Upland Forest-Thirty-five species were documented in the Enhanced Upland Forest plant community; dominant species included green ash, silver maple (Acer saccharinum), Eastern cottonwood (Populus deltoides), and box elder(Acer negundo). Table 3d presents all plant species documented in the site's Enhanced Upland Forest. Table 3.

MN Board of Water and Soil Resources Nelson Restoration Site(12-0975)—2015 Monitoring Report 8 In order to assess total cover by invasive and native species in the wetland, weighted averages were calculated (Table 4). Table 4.Weighted averages of vegetation cover.

Hydrology From January through August 2015, precipitation at the nearby Chanhassen weather station indicated 0.98 inches above average. During our September 2, 2015 monitoring,the vast majority of the Wet Meadow was observed to be saturated; scattered small pockets of shallow inundation were observed in areas due to the site's variable microtopography. The Deep Marsh and associated swales were observed to be inundated. No surface water was observed leaving the wetland's outlet culvert on the west edge. Figure 3 illustrates"S"for saturated areas, "I"for inundated areas, and "(1)" for small pockets of inundation. Performance Standards For 2015,the performance standard called for 520% invasive species cover of invasive cattail, purple loosestrife and reed canary grass in the wetland plant communities. AES's field monitoring on September 2, 2015, in conjunction with calculated weighted averages, estimated total invasive plant cover in the wetland to be 35.85%(Table 5); however, invasive plant control interventions have occurred on the site since our September 2, 2015 monitoring(see Discussion section below).

The project was executed as designed, with the exception of slightly modified geometry of the Deep Marsh and the two meandering swales (Figure 3). As designed,the Deep Marsh filled during Spring/Summer 2015 and remained completely inundated into the fall. Simultaneously,the Wet Meadow became saturated and remained so throughout the growing season (with scattered small areas of intermittent inundation). During wetter periods, surface water was observed to be slowly leaving the wetland via the outlet culvert on the west edge. However, during our formal monitoring on September 2, 2015, no surface water was observed leaving the wetland. Initial vegetation establishment and management have also been completed at the site; however, after only one growing season, the wetland is still in its early stages of native plant establishment. Following grading activities in Winter 2014-2015, a modified native seed mix was installed in the thin-spread portion of the Wet Meadow. The original project phasing called for no native seeding until Spring 2015 (after herbicide treatments), but AES felt a partial native seeding could expedite native vegetation establishment while reserving the remainder of native seed for installation at a later date. While native vegetation clearly dominates the wetland with 72.3%cover(Table 4), as expected significant invasive species pressure continues due to invasive species propagules of seeds and tubers in the wetland soil. Invasive plant cover in the Wet Meadow zone (consisting of purple loosestrife and narrow-leaved cattail) has been greatly reduced from 100% prior to construction to 27% in the Wet Meadow sample plot (Table 3a); considering the entire Wet MN Board of Water and Soil Resources Nelson Restoration Site(12-0975)—2015 Monitoring Report 10 Meadow plant community, invasive plant cover has been reduced to 40%(Table 3a). The combined cover of these two invasive species in the Deep Marsh was approximately 10.5% (Table 3b). The primary invasive plant in the Enhanced Lowland Forest was reed canary grass (15%,Table 3c). When it was seen that purple loosestrife was emerging from the seedbank in Summer 2015, AES manually collected purple loosestrife beetles(Galerucella pusilla)from Twin Cities collection sites recommended by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources. On August 20, 2015, approximately 350 beetles were released at the Nelson Restoration site. It is hoped that these beetles will overwinter successfully at the site, reproduce, and spread throughout the wetland. If the beetles become established at the site, it is expected that in the coming years they will help provide effective biocontrol of purple loosestrife. This biocontrol strategy has proven successful at other wetlands in the Twin Cities, including at nearby Ferndale Marsh, which was dominated by purple loosestrife in the 1990s. Following our September 2, 2015 monitoring visit, almost all purple loosestrife flowers were clipped and removed from the site to prevent them from producing or setting seed. The focus of 2016 management will be on the aggressive control of any remaining purple loosestrife, cattail, and reed canary grass. The site's enhanced upland buffers will also continue to be managed for upland invasive species, especially common buckthorn seedlings and narrowleaf bittercress. FUTURE MANAGEMENT The majority of wetland restoration work was completed in 2014 and 2015. Continued attention and effort will be required to control invasive plant species in the wetland while the native species expand their coverage and establish dominance at the site,which will reduce the invasion rate of undesirable species in the future. Management activities scheduled for the Nelson Restoration site are shown in Table 6. Table 6.

It is our opinion that any plans to be used for construction, grading, or plantings must be signed by the appropriate licensed professional in order to provide the City with the confidence that the project has been designed by a responsible, liable party. Therefore,these plans should be signed accordingly. For your information, Doug contacted me on the phone, and I informed him that this would be our response to you.

Kallas Subject: Nelson Restoration (12-0975) - draft/incomplete restoration plan Dave, As we discussed yesterday, attached please find AES's draft/incomplete restoration plan for the Nelson Restoration project. Sheet 2.0 presents the City-required certificate of survey,and Sheet 3.0 is the restoration concept overlain on that survey, per the City and Bolton & Menk's instructions provided during our January 16, 2014 meeting. The emphasis of the project entails excavating a portion of a wetland (to create Deep Marsh habitat),thin-spreading some of that cut material in the same wetland (to create Wet Meadow habitat),and hauling excess soil for off-site disposal. We are still making some revisions to plans, including adding details to address erosion control for SWPPP. Our primary question is whether or not this restoration plan requires signature&seal by a MN Professional Engineer. Again,we see this as a restoration plan that,while it entails grading, it is self-contained, it maintains clear/existing flow paths, and it does not present risk to people and property. After your review, please reply to this e-mail or call my cell at 612.202.2252 to discuss. Thank you for your time and consideration. - Doug Douglas M.

Failure to contact either Mr. Olmstead or the Permits Office shall be considered a violation of the permit and grounds for dismissing contactor from job site. Daily permission required from Hennepin County Permits Inspector or Office before beginning work between November 15th and April 15th. i Temporary traffic control layouts on County roads shall conform to the most recent version of the Minnesota Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices. Since none of the 3 special provisions were followed today, I directed Mike Olmstead to have your operations removed from the right-of-way.You must contact Mike Olmstead prior to working in the right-of-way and any day that you are flagging traffic. In addition,a copy of your permit must be on-site at all times when working in the rights-of-way. I am confident that you will follow the conditions of your Hennepin County Permit from this point forward and that future corrective action will not be necessary.

It will be restored/planted to native vegetation in the spring. 3) Excavation of the frost layer has been proceeding well. The frost layer is approximately 1 foot thick(exactly what we planned for),which is enabling us to very effectively remove the vast majority of existing cattail rhizomes. The stockpile of frost/cattail rhizome soils will be hauled off site once frost excavation is complete. 4) Excavation and thin spreading of hydric soils is—25%complete. In order to preserve desirable vegetation, minimize excavation into mineral soil encountered at the east edge of the Deep Marsh, and retain existing areas suitable for conversion to Wet Meadow,the eastern edge of the Deep Marsh was shifted slightly west in some areas. This shift will be compensated by shifting the Deep Marsh's western edge slightly to the west. The attached map shows the shift from the originally-designed Deep Marsh geometry(blue outline)to the revised geometry(red outline). We will not exceed the 0.5 ac maximum for Deep Marsh. 5) Excavation/thin-spread work will continue at least into next week. We will provide another status update soon. Please let me know if you have any questions,and thanks for all of your support of this ecological restoration project. - Doug Douglas M.

King; Michael D Olmstead; Melanie Curtis Subject: RE: Nelson Resto(12-0975)-Henn Cty Permit VIOLATION Doug, This is regarding Hennepin County Permit 2014-U1010.We received a complaint that traffic control was not adequate at this site this morning.That was surprising to us since nobody had contacted either our office or our inspector Mike Olmstead that this work was commencing.The following are special provisions from your permit: Special provisions: Contact Mike Olmstead at(612) 221-7162 or via email at michael.olmstead(o)hennepin.us at least 24 hours prior to construction. Failure to contact either Mr. Olmstead or the Permits Office shall be considered a violation of the permit and grounds for dismissing contactor from job site. Daily permission required from Hennepin County Permits Inspector or Office before beginning work between November 15th and April 15th. Temporary traffic control layouts on County roads shall conform to the most recent version of the Minnesota Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices. Since none of the 3 special provisions were followed today, I directed Mike Olmstead to have your operations removed from the right-of-way.You must contact Mike Olmstead prior to working in the right-of-way and any day that you are flagging traffic. In addition,a copy of your permit must be on-site at all times when working in the rights-of-way. I am confident that you will follow the conditions of your Hennepin County Permit from this point forward and that future corrective action will not be necessary.

King Subject: RE: MCWD WCA W14-37 Notice of Decision No-Loss - Nelson Restoration -Orono Melanie, Thanks for your reply. Regarding these outstanding items: 1) We plan to have the NPDES permit within a week or two. You have already received (and reviewed/approved?) the draft SWPPP for the site (pgs 38-43 of your Item 06 143688.pdf file for the project). The draft SWPPP will be finalized (i.e., Items VII a &b) within a week or two as well. 2) 1 had not heard about the Hennepin County approval requirement by the City before, but AES has coordinated with them on earlier phases of this project(including traffic control). We will not be doing any grading in the right-of-way(just the temporary construction access)and we are installing some native vegetation (we've already discussed with them that we will keep woody plantings out of the cleared right-of-way). We will contact them again and secure their approval. 3) The rain garden designs have been reviewed and approved by the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District, and I was not aware that the City needed to review them. I will send you the designs in a separate e-mail. Thanks again. - Doug Douglas M.

Following are my comments for your consideration: 1. The applicant is proposing to disturb more than 1 acre. Therefore,the applicant must meet NPDES requirements and should submit a copy of the permit to the City prior to any land disturbing activities. In conjunction with the permit, the applicant must submit a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan,that meets current NPDES requirements,to the City for review. 2. It appears that work is being proposed in the right-of-way. The applicant may be required to obtain Hennepin County approval and permitting for this work. A copy of any approved permit or confirmation that no permit is required should be submitted prior to any land altering activities. If work is to be performed in the right-of-way or staged from Tonkawa Road, a traffic control/staging plan should be submitted for review. 3. Rain gardens are indicated on the plans to be designed by others.

Regarding construction phasing, we are completing excavation/thin-spread work moving from the north to the south. In order to facilitate this work, we plan to excavate the northern swale soon; however, we will not connect it all the way to the culvert. AES has installed an arc of silt fencing around this outlet culvert(see attached photo), and we propose to not disturb this area. Based on the wetland's relatively low water level currently(presumably due to our dry autumn) and our interest in conserving as much wetland hydrology as possible (without elevating water levels in the basin),AES proposes to grade the two swales as gentle slopes from the existing culvert drainage elevations down to—Ift below the existing wetland surface (see attached sketch). This will maintain the basin's pre-construction surface hydrology and flow patterns, but will prevent undesirable drainage of the wetland. Please let me know if you have any questions.

The project will include excavation and grading activities that will result in the discharge of fill material into approximately 2.10 acres of degraded shallow marsh type wetland, converting the area to a higher quality wet meadow and deep marsh type wetland. The project site is in the SW 1/4 of Section 5,T. 117 N., R.23 W.,Hennepin County, Minnesota. The authorized work is shown on the enclosed drawings labeled 2014-03355-MMJ,Page 1 of 5 through Page 5 of 5,which are hereby incorporated as part of this Letter of Permission. This authorization is issued under the provisions of LOP-05-MN. The authorized work includes: I. The conversion of approximately 0.50 acre of shallow marsh type wetland to deep marsh type wetland,associated with the excavation of a small open water area,to a maximum depth of 4.5 feet. 2. The conversion of approximately 1.60 acres of shallow marsh type wetland to wet meadow type wetland,associated with the discharge of the abovementioned dredged material over the remaining portion of the wetland basin. The authorization is subject to the following Special Conditions, as well as the enclosed General and Standard Conditions. 1. Annual monitoring reports shall be completed for the first three years following completion of the wetland restoration activities(2015 through 2017). Monitoring reports shall be completed according to the Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resource's"Replacement Wetland Annual Monitoring Report"format and be submitted to the Corps(Attu: OP-R,Melissa Jenny)for review by December 31, 2015-2017. 2. The restored wetland area shall meet the following vegetative performance standards: ti Operations -2 - Regulatory 2 - Regulatory(2014-03355-MMJ) a) The combined cover of invasive cattail,purple loosestrife,and reed canary grass shall not exceed 20%total cover at any time during the 2015-2017 short-term management period. b) By the end of the second year of management(end of 2016)and through the end of the short term management period(end of 2017),total vegetative cover shall be no less than 80%,not including open water areas. c) Just prior to the end of the short-term management period(end of 2017), restored Wet Meadow areas shall contain a minimum of: 30%cover by native grass/sedge species,20%cover by native forb species,and 33%of installed species present.

Grading/excavation for the wetland enhancement is just about complete,with final grading occurring tomorrow(Tues) morning;the excavator machine will leave the site mid-day tomorrow. Some of the wetland frost was thicker as we proceeded with grading, making soil handling more challenging; however,final grading generally follows the design plans. All erosion control BMPs remain in place. Rather than stabilizing exposed soil with cover crop now and herbiciding in the spring prior to native seed installation, AES plans to install a seed mix of cover crop and select, aggressive natives from the design's specified native seed mixes, followed by straw mulch;we plan to install this seed/straw later this week. Our hope is that this approach will jump- start the revegetation in thin-spread areas not requiring aggressive herbicide preparation (intensive herbicide prep will still occur in the existing areas of cattail and reed canary grass around the thin-spread area). AES will still install all specified native seed, and if necessary due to cattail regrowth, herbicide the wetland and re-seed with the specified native seed mix to achieve performance standards.

We compare this to the biological communities we anticipate will result from restoration activities. In brief,the site's wetland currently consists primarily of a degraded Shallow Marsh,dominated by invasive cattails, purple loosestrife,and reed canary grass. The proposed wetland is designed to consist of a large,diverse Wet Meadow with an area of Deep Marsh. EXISTING VS. PROPOSED BIOTA The following table provides metrics for comparing existing and proposed biological communities(pre-and post-construction)at the Nelson Restoration site wetland. Some existing conditions values were estimated. All proposed conditions values were estimated. Proposed conditions are for two to three years post-construction. Estimates were based on our professional experience in comparable wetlands in the region and expected, realistic restoration outcomes. Category Metric Under Existing Under Proposed Conditions Conditions Size Shallow Marsh(acres) 2.4 0 Fresh Wet Meadow(acres) 0.3 2.2 Hardwood Swamp(acres) 0.3 0.3 Deep Marsh(acres) 0 0.5 Vegetation Percent Invasive Cover(%) Condition 90 <20 Tree Species Richness(#) 4 6 Shrub Species Richness(#) 4 8 Grass Species Richness(#) 3 1012 Sedge Species Richness(#) 2 10±2 Forb Species Richness(#) 15 30±5 Wildlife Use Bird Species Richness(annual,#) 6* 18±4 Amphibian Species Richness(breeding,#) 0* 4±1 Dragonfly/Damselfly Species Richness(#) 4* 12±2 Fish Species Richness(#) 0 2±2 Note: *Values based on site-specific field data collected by AES in 2014. Sustainable Solutions for Over 30 Years. www.appliedeco.com We lack data on pollinator species richness(bee,fly, beetle,moth, butterfly, etc.). However, given the low forb richness and abundance at the site currently,and the expected increase in forb richness and abundance as a result of the restoration, it is likely that pollinators will increase in presence and abundance. Vegetation monitoring and reporting is proposed to continue for three years to ensure that performance standards are met for restored wetland vegetation.Wildlife monitoring and reporting was initiated in 2014,with two sampling rounds completed,and a third planned for late September/early October. These pre-construction wildlife data are being collected to document the response of birds,frogs,toads,dragonflies,and damselflies to the restoration project. Post-construction monitoring data will be compared to pre-construction data in order to document changes in presence and abundance of these groups in response to the restoration project. 2 w s°R 44%n yet�Zaa a � .tea wo .-a..; �,� . , a int. ,}7^�{�'�� _� -„ : :� ._�"'�"4� � •�+ 7 c+ .q r.w • 7 ti , r I S *` Nelson Restoration Design 2010 5oo Tonkawa Road Long Lake, MN j HIG Project # 131065 HIG N Client Project # 12-0975 Approximate Scale 1:6000 (1"=500') 0 r 1.C. n w4 .. ,::, . - ;�• . 4f jr Ao ♦ kms, i ` ""�+► •_ tis Ar ,. �. � T Ia 4 i AAM Vol • r t � , r NelsonRestoration Design • • Tonkawa Road Long Lake, MN HIG Project # 131o65 Client Project 12-0975 Approximate . • • • • • • ' Ills �. f! 01 4" �. .�• !AN4 4k qp ..l yy S �•' t4 w ` w Y V �T F" 4k y ' Nelson .1 yo.
