were taken to deteiniine the wetland boundary. Soils, hydrology and topography aided in <br />deteiniining the wetland boundary. <br />At the wetland pit location W8A the plant community is dominated by a sedge species and Canada <br />bluejoint. The upland pit location W8B is dominated by Canada goldenrod, Siberian elm, and <br />quaking aspen. Only the wetland plant community is considered hydrophytic. <br />Soils in the wetland pit location W8A were marked as Other and assumed to meet a hydric soil <br />indicator below the thick dark surface. Soils in the upland pit location W8B did not meet any hydric <br />soil indicators. <br />Soils in the wetland pit W8A were not saturated. The wetland pit location met secondary hydrology <br />indicators D2 and D5. Soils in the upland pit location W8B were not saturated and did not meet any <br />hydrology indicators. <br />The deteiniining factor for this delineation was the lack of all three indicators at the upland pit <br />location. The boundaries were deteiniined by following the topographic break and vegetative break. <br />VFW C NCLUSI N <br />This delineation was perfoinied in September of 2022. The boundaries of the wetlands were staked <br />in the field with three foot "Wetland Delineation" pin flags. The location of the pin flags were <br />surveyed by Bolton & Menk, Inc. using a sub -foot GPS Data Collector and tied to the Anoka <br />County coordinate system. The delineated limits are believed to be the upper limits of where all <br />three of the required wetland criteria were present. <br />Bolton & Menk, Inc., was asked to deteiniine the boundaries of those jurisdictional wetlands that <br />exist upon this property as defined by the Wetland Conservation Act. <br />Based upon all available infoiniation, the existing conditions that currently prevail, and the on -site <br />investigation, evidence supports the presence of eight wetlands within the boundaries of the study <br />corridor. <br />WETLAND SUMMARY <br />Id # Wetland Type" Size* <br />WI Type 2 2.65 ac <br />W2 Type 4/7 1.65 ac <br />W3 Type 4/6 0.53 ac <br />W4 Type 3/7 0.53 ac <br />W5 Type 6 0.91 ac <br />W6 Type 4/6 2.78 ac <br />W7 Type 2/3/4/7 1.60 ac <br />W8 Type 1 0.04 ac <br />*size measured within study area. <br />"wetland type within study area <br />Sincerely, <br />BOLTON & MENK, INC. <br />Kristina Bloomquist, PWS <br />Certified Wetland Delineator, No. 1340 <br />Prepared by: Bolton & Menk, Inc. <br />Ramsey COR Wetland Analysis I OR1.128637 <br />CONCLUSION <br />Page 9 <br />
