ABSTRACT
Svoboda Ecological Resources (SER) staff examined the Van Eeckhout Parcel on
October 1./, 1998for jurisdictional wetlands using procedures specified in the 1987 Army
Corps' of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual. The parcel is approximately 20 acres
located in the NWJI./ of the NEIi./, Section 3, T 117 N, R 23 W, Hennepin County,
Minnesota. The National Wetland Inventory (NW!) Excelsior Quadrangle indicates one basin
that extends north and east off-site. The Hennepin County Soil Survey indicates the presence
of hydric soils on the subject property. The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources
Protected Waters map for Hennepin County indicates that Long Lake Creek is a protected
stream that flows through the property. We delineated and staked two wetland basins in the
field; one extends off-property to the north and east. The approximate wetland area of all
bq.sins combined as delineated by SER is 7.26 acres.
INTRODUCTION
The Van Eeckhout parcel is located in the NWl/4 of the NEl/4, Section 3, T 117 N, R
23 W, Hennepin County, Minnesota. Surrounding land use included suburban housing, forest,
and wetland. This delineation was necessary because our client, Mr. Charles Van Eeckhout,
intends to sub-divide his lot for housing.
STUDY METHODS
SER reviewed the National Wetland Inventory (NWI) Excelsior Quadrangle, Hennepin
County Soil Survey, Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Protected Waters
map of Hennepin County, and aerial photographs prior to visiting the site. We evaluated all
potential wetland areas by surveying vegetation, soils, and hydrology as outlined in the 1987
U.S. Army Corps' of Engineers Wetlands Delineation Manual (hereafter, 1987 Manual).

BASIS FOR WETLAND DETERMINATION
Three mandatory technical criteria are necessary to classify an area as a jurisdictional
wetland according to the 1987 Manual: hydrophytic vegetation, hydric soils, and wetland
hydrology.
Wetland Vegetation
Vegetation criteria are met when more than 50% of the dominant species from all strata
are hydrophytes at a sampling point (1987 Manual). Reed (1988) defined hydrophytic plants
as those with obligate wetland (OBL), facultative wetland (FACW), and/or facultative (FAC)
wetland indicator status. A plant's indicator status is defined by Reed (1988) as follows:
Obligate Wetland (OBL) plants occur in wetlands with an estimated probability
>99% under natural conditions.
Facultative Wetland (FACW) plants occur in wetlands with an estimated probability
between 67% -99%.
Facultative (FAC) plants occur in wetlands with an estimated probability between
34%-66%.
Facultative Upland (F ACU) plants occur in wetlands with an estimated probability
between 1 % -33%.
Obligate Upland (UPL) plants occur in wetlands of the north-central region with an
estimated probability of <1 % under natural conditions. A species is not on the
National List if it does not occur in wetlands in any region.
Hydric Soils
Hydric soils exhibit anaerobic indications either immediately below the A-horizon or
within 10" of the surface, whichever is shallower (1987 Manual). Indicators of anaerobic
conditions include gleying, mottling, and the accumulation of organic matter ( dark colors).
The 1987 Manual specifies other hydric soil indicators.

Hydrology
Wetland hydrology is present when an area is inundated or the soil is saturated within a
major portion of the root zone which is usually within 12" of the surface. Areas saturated
more than 12.5% of the growing season meet the hydrology criterion but areas saturated less
than 5% of the growing season do not meet hydrology criteria. The accepted convention in
Minnesota is to call areas saturated for greater than 5% of the growing season jurisdictional
wetlands. The minimum required period of saturation is approximately 8 to 10 days in the
Minneapolis-St. Paul area. Drained wetlands require a more thorough investigation of the
hydrology. Furthermore, disturbances such as blocked culverts, beaver dams, and mining
require an investigation of the site history to determine jurisdictional status.
WETLAND DELINEATION
We marked the highest extent of the wetland basin with 4-foot wooden laths and
orange "wetland boundary" flagging tape. Svoboda Ecological Resources surveyed lath,
property boundaries, and derived areas using a Global Positioning Systems unit. We
established transects in a representative wetland-to-upland transition zones consisting of two
sample points: one in upland, and one in the wetland. We also sampled numerous locations
along the delineation line to verify our boundary, but we did not mark these locations. Field
data sheets describe the soil characteristics, plant communities, and hydrology for each sample
(see APPENDIX A). We marked sample points with a 4-foot lath and black and orange
diagonally striped flagging tape. We classified wetlands using National Wetlands Inventory
(Cowardin et al. 1979) and Circular 39 (Shaw and Fredine 1956) criterion.

RESULTS
Offsite Survey
The National Wetlands Inventory (NWI), Excelsior quadrangle mapped one Palustrine,
emergent, seasonally flooded, and partially drained (PEMCd) wetland on the subject property
(Figure 1 ). Hydric soil areas approximately corresponded to the wetland indicated on the NWI
map and included Hamel and Marsh hydric soil types (Figure 2). The Minnesota Protected
Waters map for Hennepin County identified Long Lake Creek as a protected stream that flows
through the property (Figure 3). Precipitation for the year-to-date was (Figure 4). The aerial
photograph of the site was taken in 1991 (Figure 5). Several photos depict the current
co_ndition of the subject property (Figure 6).
Field Conditions
SER staff completed this delineation on October 14, 1998. Precipitation for the year to
date was 80 to 90-percent below normal for this area (Figure 4). The average temperature for
the week prior to our site visit was 49.8° and there was 0.07 11 of rain. We expected
hydrological conditions to be below normal because of the time of the year and because of
below average precipitation. SER staff considered this information when completing the
delineations.
Field Delineation
SER delineated two wetland basins on the subject property. One basin corresponds
with the basin mapped on the NWI quadrangle (Figure 1) the other was an area excavated to
create a small pond. Both basins occur in hydric soil areas according to the Hennepin County
Soil Survey (Figure 2).

Basin l -Description
SER identified and delineated a Palustrine (=P) wetland complex that primarily
consisted of persistent emergent ( =EM l) vegetation, but also included areas of broad-leafed
deciduous forested (=FOl) portions and broad-leafed deciduous scrub-shrub (=SSl) portions.
Water regimes ranged from temporarily flooded (=A) in forested portions to seasonally
flooded (=C). Therefore, NWI classifications consisted of PFOIA, PSS lB, and PEMIC. This
wetland is a Type 1/3 according to Circular 39. We sampled soils, vegetation, and hydrology
at three wetland and three upland sampling points each marked with 4' wooden lath and orange
and black-stripped flagging. Site Field Forms (Appendix A) show detailed data collected from
these sample points.
The wetland sampling point (SPl-1 WET) met all three parameters. Dominant
vegetation consisted of reed canary grass (Phalaris anmdinacea, F ACW+). Soils were hydric
based on organic content and the black (2.5/N) color. We did not observe free water in a
borehole drilled to 26-inches, but other indicators included a relatively low landscape position
and obvious drainage patterns.
The upland sampling point (SPl-1 UP) met two of three parameters. Dominant
vegetation was hydrophytic and consisted of box elder (Acer negundo, FACW") and common
buckthorn (Rhamnus cathartica, F AC-) trees with a herbaceous understory. Soils were hydric
based on color and organic content. Soil was dry and crumbly. We did not observe free water
to a depth of 3 2-inches, nor did we determine the presence of any other conditions that were
favorable for wetland hydrology.
The upland sampling pit (SPI-2 WET) met two of three parameters. Dominant
vegetation was hydric and consisted of reed canary grass (Phalaris anmdinacea, F ACW+).
Soils were hydric based on organic content and a dark color (2.5/N). Wetland hydrology was .
based on a relatively low landscape position and drainage patterns, although we did not
observe any free water in a borehole drilled to 26-inches.
The wetland sampling point (SPI-3 WET) also met all three parameters. This area was
somewhat questionable because a predominance of reed canary grass obscured landscape
position and probably excluded other plants from becoming established. Dominant vegetation

consisted of reed canary grass (Phalaris arundinacea, F ACW") with no other plants present.
Soil consisted of at least 32-inches of organic material which is an organic soil, and therefore
hydric, according to 1987 Manual guidelines. We did not observe free water in the borehole,
but the peat was saturated at 18-inches.
The upland sampling point (SP2-l UP) met two of three parameters. Dominant
vegetation consisted ofreed canary grass (Phalaris anmdinacea, FACW+). Soils were hydric
and consisted of dark (2.5/N) muck overlaying peat with some sand throughout the profile
which may be erosion from upslope. We did not observe free water in a borehole drilled to
18-inches, and we determined based on landscape position that this point was not wetland.
Basin 2
This basin was an excavated area separated from Basin 1 by a small upland area of
mowed grass (Paa spp.) and reed canary grass. This basin was not mapped as a separate
wetland on the NWI Excelsior quadrangle (Figure 1 ). This basin corresponds to a Type 3
according to Circular 39.
The wetland sampling point (SP2-l WET) met three parameters. Dominant vegetation
consisted of narrow-leaved cattail (Typha angustifalia, OBL) and reed canary grass (Phalaris
I
anmdinacea, F ACW+). Soils were hydric based on organic content and the black (2.5/N)
color. A sulfur smell also indicated anaerobic conditions within the soil profile which is one
characteristic of a hydric soil. We did not observe free water in a borehole drilled to 24-inches,
but we did squeeze water from the peat at 8-inches. Other hydrological indicators included a
relatively low landscape position, drainage patterns, water-stained leaves, and water marks
indicated by a mudflat area of two to three feet wide. Low water levels are typical for
wetlands during fall.
The upland sampling point (SP2-1UP) met two of three parameters. Dominant
vegetation was hydrophytic and consisted of reed canary grass (Phalaris arundinacea,
FACw+) with grass (Paa. spp.) as a non-dominant. Soils were hydric based on color and
organic content. We determined that hydrology was not present based on the landscape
position, and we did not obserye free water in a borehole drilled to 26-inches.

DISCUSSION
On-site determinations were based on the three required technical criteria as outlined
by the 1987 Corps of Engineers Wetlands Delineation Manual: the presence of hydric soils,
the dominance of hydrophytic vegetation, and the presence of water at a depth less than 12
inches to the soil surface. We based the delineated wetland edge on deduced hydrology based
on topography because much of the property consists of hydric soils and reed canary grass
which is a hydrophytic plant that does invade disturbed upland areas.
The wetland boundary, property boundaries, and sample point locations indicated on
figures in this report were determined using a Global Positioning Systems unit and are accurate
to within one meter (3.3 feet).
RECOMMENDATIONS
If any manipulation of this area is planned, the next step would be to request that
Hennepin County personnel visit the site with us to review and corroborate wetland
boundaries. This site may also require on-site review by Army Corp and Minnesota Board of
Water and Soil Resources personnel.
Several levels of government regulate activities that impact or potentially impact
wetlands. Local ordinances may regulate wetland modifications such as burning, and brush
and tree removal. The state of Minnesota and the Federal government are the two primary
jurisdictions that regulate using the following legislative actions:
□
□
State jurisdiction by the Wetland Conservation Act of 1991 (WCA)
administered by the WCA Local Governmental Unit (LGU).
Federal jurisdiction by the Clean Water Act of 1972 and subsequent
amendments. Wetland protection is implemented by the Corps of Engineers
(Corps) with permit certification issued by the Environmental Protection
Agency.

The project proposer must obtain all necessary permits before any grading or filling in wetland
basins to avoid fines and costly project delays. Violation of wetland regulations has resulted in
substantial civil and criminal penalties. Builders who impact wetlands may be required to
submit a WCA Sequencing form and a WCA Replacement Plan Application form to the Local
Government Unit (LGU). A DNR permit application may also be required in some instances.
Builders should initiate the permit process as early as possible.

CERTIFICATION
The above described delineation was completed by Michael B. Whitt and Leslie A. Y etka on
October 14, 1998. The delineation was performed in accordance with the 1987 procedural
manual whereby the edge of wetland was marked by stakes in the field and located by land
surveying methods. The delineation meets the standards and criteria described in the 1987
federal manual and conforms to applicable standards and regulations in force at the time the
delineation was completed.
