LGU Findings and Conclusions(attach additional sheets as necessary):
The wetland boundary delineated by Svoboda Ecological Resources at 1925 Fox St. in the city of Orono
(PID#03-117-23-43-0002)on July 7,2010 was reviewed in the field on September 20,2010 by
Minnehaha Creek Watershed District staff. The wetland area was identified as a Type 3 PEMF(shallow
marsh)wetland. The dominant vegetation within the wetland consisted primarily of cattail and reed
canary grass. The data sheets provided indicated the presence of Sagittaria latifolia(broad leaved
arrowhead)at both the upland and wetland sample points,but this species was not observed at either
location in the field. The boundary with upland was characterized by a fairly abrupt change in elevation
&a transition to primarily non-hydrophitic vegetation.
The boundary as flagged in the field and labeled in the delineation report submitted on August 4,2010 is
accepted by the MCWD. This decision is valid for 3 years. A project on this property may require a
permit from the MCWD. If you have any questions,please contact me at 952-471-0590.
