The wetland boundary delineated by Arrowhead Environmental Consulting at 1190 Lyman Ave in Orono
(PID#35-118-23-43-0022)on June 22,2010 was reviewed in the field on July 16,2010 by Minnehaha
Creek Watershed District staf£ The wetland area was identified as a type 3 PEMC(shallow marsh)
wetland. The dominant vegetation within the wetland consisted of cattail, lake sedge&purple loosestrife.

non-hydrophytic vegetation.
