Wetland 7 (W7): <br />NWI Cowardin: PEM1A/PUBHx <br />PWI (Hydro) ID: None <br />Field Observation Circular 39: Type 2/3/4/7 <br />Field Observation Eggers and Reed: Fresh <br />(wet) Meadow/Shallow Marsh/Deep <br />Marsh/Wooded Swamp <br />Soil Mapping Unit(s): Duelm loamy <br />sand/Hubbard loamy sand/Isan sandy loam <br />Wetland 7 is located in the central part of the <br />study area. A portion of W7 is believed to be <br />excavated in historical wetland, with the <br />remaining portion being excavated in upland. <br />The field investigation found the site has met all <br />three wetland indicators and this portion of the <br />wetlands should be considered a palustrine W7 <br />emergent persistent seasonally saturated seasonally <br />flooded/semipermanently flooded/palustrine forested broad-leaved deciduous temporarily flooded <br />(PEM 1 B/GF/PFO 1 A) wetland. One transect and several sample points were taken to determine the <br />wetland boundary. Soils, hydrology and topography aided in determining the wetland boundary. <br />At the wetland pit location W7A the plant community is dominated by reed canary grass and <br />sandbar willow. The upland pit location W7B is dominated by white sweet clover, quaking aspen, <br />and sandbar willow. Both plant communities are considered hydrophytic. <br />Soils in the wetland pit location W7A met hydric soil indicator Al I — Depleted Below Dark <br />Surface. Soils in the upland pit location W7B did not meet any hydric soil indicators. <br />Soils in the wetland pit W7A were not saturated. The wetland pit location met secondary hydrology <br />indicators D2 and D5. Soils in the upland pit location W7B were not saturated and did not meet any <br />hydrology indicators. <br />The determining factor for this delineation was the lack of hydric soil and wetland hydrology <br />indicators at the upland pit location. The boundaries were determined by following the topographic <br />break and vegetative break. <br />W8 <br />Wetland 8 (W8): <br />NWI Cowardin: PEM1A <br />PWI (Hydro) ID: None <br />Field Observation Circular 39: <br />Type 1 <br />Field Observation Eggers and <br />Reed: Seasonally Flooded Basin <br />Soil Mapping Unit(s): Isan sandy <br />loam <br />Wetland 8 is located in the <br />southeast part of the study area and <br />is believed to be a historical <br />wetland. <br />The field investigation found the <br />site has met all three wetland <br />indicators and this portion of the <br />wetlands should be considered a <br />palustrine emergent temporarily flooded (PEMA) wetland.
