Attachment A
Request for Delineation Review, Wetland Type Determination, or
Jurisdictional Determination
By submission of the enclosed wetland delineation report, I am requesting that the U.S.Army Corps of Engineers,St. Paul District
(Corps)and/or the Wetland Conservation Act Local Government Unit(LGU)provide me with the following(check all that apply):
�Wetland Type Confirmation
� Delineation Concurrence. Concurrence with a delineation is a written notification from the Corps and a decision from the LGU
concurring, not concurring,or commenting on the boundaries of the aquatic resources delineated on the property. Delineation
concurrences are generally valid for five years unless site conditions change. Under this request alone,the Corps will not address
the jurisdictional status of the aquatic resources on the property,only the boundaries of the resources within the review area
(including wetlands,tributaries, lakes,etc.).
❑ PreliminaryJurisdictional Determination.A preliminaryjurisdictional determination (PJD) is a non-binding written indication
from the Corps that waters, including wetlands, identified on a parcel may be waters of the United States. For purposes of
computation of impacts and compensatory mitigation requirements, a permit decision made on the basis of a PJD will treat all
waters and wetlands in the review area as if they are jurisdictional waters of the U.S. PJDs are advisory in nature and may not be
appealed.
�Approved Jurisdictional Determination.An approved jurisdictional determination (AJD) is an official Corps determination that
jurisdictional waters of the United States are either present or absent on the property. AJDs can generally be relied upon by the
affected party for five years.An AJD may be appealed through the Corps administrative appeal process.
In order for the Corps and LGU to process your request,the wetland delineation must be prepared in accordance with the 1987
Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual,any approved Regional Supplements to the 1987 Manual,and the Guidelines for
Submitting Wet/and Delineations in Minnesota (2013).

MATTHEW HEMSLEY BACKGROUND 8�METHODOLOGY
Backs�round
As requested by Matthew Hemsley,Anderson Engineering of MN, LLC completed a wetland investigation at
the specified project area located at 649 Ferndale Road in the City of Orono, Minnesota (PID:
0111723330014, 0111723330015, 0111723330016, 0211723440003). Geographically, the area is located
within Sections 1 and 2, 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 Joe Aden
on April 5, 2017. The weather was partly cloudy with a temperature of 50 degrees Fahrenheit.
Methodolo�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 tocated
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.

MATTHEW HEMSLEY RESOURCE REVIEW
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 PEM1C/PABG wetland complex
within the project area.
USDA- Natural Resources Conservation Service Soil Survey:
Soil Survey data for Hennepin County, MN were obtained and reviewed prior to the delineation. Table 1
provides a list of the mapped soils within the investigation area. Figure 3 in Appendix A contains a map of
the soil units with percent hydric components.
Table 1 -Summary of Mapped Soil Units within the Project Area

Delineating Hydric Soi/s, version 7.0, 2010(NRCS, 2010), The 1987 Manual, and The Regiona/Supplement
(USACE, August 2010).
Minnesota Department of Natural Resources Public Water Inventory:
The MN DNR PWI for Hennepin County, MN (Appendix A. Figure 4) identifies Ferndale Marsh (27085200)
within 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 below the
normal monthly range for this project area. Hydrologic conditions were suitable for completing an accurate
wetland determination and boundary delineation.

MATTHEW HEMSLEY FIELD REVIEW
Field Review
Wetland 1: Wetland 1 is a Type 3/4, PEM1C/PABG, Shallow Marsh/Deep Marsh wetland that is
hydrologically connected to Lake Minnetonka to the south. Overall, the wetland vegetation is dominated by
hybrid cattail (Tyoha X glauca), reed canary grass(Phalaris arundinacea),and lake sedge(Carex/acustris).
The underlying soils are mapped as Muskego, Blue Earth, and Houghton soils.The investigated soil profiles
met the 2 cm Muck (A10) and Loamy Gleyed Matrix (F2)) hydric soil indicators. Hydrology indicators
observed include a high water table at 4 inches(C2), geomorphic position (D2), and the FAC-Neutral Test
(D5).
The upland buffer surrounding the wetland at the front of the property is a manicured lawn primarily vegetated
with Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis) crab grass (Digitaria longiflora) and the transition between the
upland and the wetland is composed of gentle to moderate slopes. The upland buffer surrounding the
wetland at back of the property is dominated by American Elm (U/mus Americana), eastern cottonwood
(Popu/us de/toides) and common buckthorn (Rhamnus cathartica) and the transition between the upland
and the wetland is composed of moderate to steep slopes.

MATTHEW HEMSLEY CONCLUSION
Conclusion
Portions of one wetland were identified and delineated in accordance with the 1987 United States Army
Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual within the project area located at 649 Ferndale Rd, 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 Minnehaha Creek Watershed District inventory classifies Wetland 1 as a Preserve wetland.
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 1 performed the fie/d analysis and wrote the report for this wetland determination.
