The legal description of the project location is: A part of the NW `/ of Section 10, TI 17N, R23W, Hennepin County, Orono, Minnesota. The parcel is a total of 0.82 acres(according to the Hennepin County Website). Methods AEC utilized the 1987 US Army Corps of Engineers Wetlands Delineation Manual and Midwest Regional Supplement to perform the wetland delineation. A United States Geological Survey (USGS) Map (Excelsior Quad) (Figure 1), the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (MN DNR) Public Water Inventory (PWI) Map (Figure 2), the Hennepin County Soil Survey Map (Figure 3), the National Wetland Inventory (NWI) Map (Figure 4), and the MCWD Wetland Assessment Map (Figure 5) were reviewed prior to the site visit and used in the delineation process. The delineated wetland boundaries (GPS located) are indicated on Figure 6 and are overlaid on a 2012 aerial image. AEC used the routine delineation method. Wetland classification followed methods described by the USACOE - St. Paul District; Eggers and Reed "Wetland Plants and Plant Communities of MN and WI". The Circular 39 and Cowardin et al. classifications are given as well. The indicator status of plants was determined using the State of Minnesota— 2012 National Wetlands Plant List Final Ratings provided by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory. Pink pinflags were used to delineate the wetlands and were numbered sequentially; flagging was hung from adjacent vegetation to aid in location of the pinflags. Sample points were taken to document the vegetation, soils, and hydrology indicators within representative upland and wetland locations. Results Office Results Wetland 1 is indicated on the NWI map as a PEMC wetland. Wetland 1 is mapped in the Cordova and Houghton soil series; the Cordova and Houghton soil series are classified as hydric soils (SCS Hydric Soils of the United States). Wetland 1 is indicated on the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources Public Water Inventory Map (PWI) as basin 27-140P (French Marsh). Wetland 1 is indicated on the MCWD Wetland Assessment Map as a Preserve Wetland. Field Results Wetland 1 AEC classified Wetland 1 as a Shallow Marsh (Type 3, PEMF) wetland. Wetland 1 is dominated by reed canary grass(Phalaris arundinacea) and cattail(Typha)with scattered boxelder (Acer negundo) and gray dogwood (Cornus racemosa) along the fringe of the 1 wetland. The adjacent upland area is dominated by manicured lawn consisting of Kentucky blue grass (Poa pratensis), yellow foxtail (Setaria pumila), and clover (Trifolium) species. The boundary for Wetland 1 exhibited rather broad slopes (a mild transition in topography); in general there was a defined transition between the reed canary grass and dogwoods (wetland) and the Kentucky bluegrass (upland). The wetland soil boring met the F3 (Depleted matrix) hydric soil indicator with Geomorphic Position and FAC — Neutral Test hydrology indicators present. The upland soil borings were lacking hydric soils and hydrology indicators. In general, the wetland boundary was placed along the vegetation transition zone. AEC revisited the site in June of 2013 to review the wetland boundary, the wetland boundary determined in November of 2012 was determined to be accurate and no changes were made. Discussion One wetland basin was delineated within the parcel bounds. Areas delineated as wetland met the three criteria required for a wetland delineation; dominance of hydrophytic vegetation, presence of hydric soil, and (at a minimum) one primary hydrology indicator or two secondary hydrology indicators under normal conditions. In order to be official the wetland delineation must be reviewed and approved by the Local Government Unit (LGU) and potentially other agencies (Local, State, Federal). Any work within or adjacent to a wetland will require Wetland Conservation Act(WCA) permits (and potentially other permits). Please consult with AEC if you plan on filling, draining,excavating wetlands within your project location.
