area meeting wetland criteria was labled"Drained Area"and is a drainage area for a sump pump.

boundaries and incidental wetland evidence.MCWD and BWSR staff were in agreement with the
field-delineated boundary of Wetland 1.MCWD and BWSR staff were also in agreement that the

wetland. This decision is valid for five years.A future project located on this property may require a
