2.2 Surveys and Maps <br />Pinnacle conducted a review of the Natural Resource Conservation Soil Survey, <br />topographic maps, NWI, and PWI maps for the vicinity of the Site. The following sections <br />summarize the information available at the time of this review. <br />2.2.1 Topographic Maps <br />The central property featuring the church building and parking lot appears to have an <br />elevation of 886 elevation above mean sea level (AMSL). The Site appears to drain to <br />the east and the west with elevations of 856 AMSL and 880 AMSL, respectively. The Site <br />generally slopes to the wetland areas in the east and to a suspect wetland area in the <br />western portion of the Site. Topographic contours are shown on Figure 2. <br />2.2.2 Soil Survey <br />The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Web Soil Survey map, which is <br />included as Figure 3, was reviewed for information pertaining to the Site soils. The Soil <br />Survey indicated the Site soil units consist of: <br />• Nymore loamy sand, 1 to 6 percent slopes (D90B) <br />• Marsh (Mc) <br />• Nymore loamy coarse sand, 12 to 25 percent slopes (NrD) <br />• Nymore loamy sand, 0 to 2 percent slopes (NyA) <br />• Nymore loamy sand, 6 to 12 percent slopes (NyC) <br />Of the identified soil types, Marsh is considered a hydric soil. <br />2.2.3 Wetland Inventory Maps <br />The United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) NWI map for the Site area (Figure <br />4) depicted three wetland basins and four wetland types, as follows: <br />• Two wetland areas consisting of palustrine, emergent, persistent, temporary <br />flooded, (PEM1A) wetlands. <br />• Two wetland areas consisting of palustrine, emergent, persistent, seasonally <br />flooded, (PEM 1 C) wetlands. <br />• One wetland area consists of a palustrine, emergent, persistent, semi -permanently <br />flooded, (PEM 1 F) wetland. <br />• One wetland area consists of a palustrine, unconsolidated bottom, semi - <br />permanently flooded, (PUBF) wetland. <br />Pinnacle Engineering, Inc. <br />11541 95th Avenue North <br />Maple Grove, MN 55369 <br />763-315-4501 <br />Page 2 <br />Wetland Determination Report <br />Lord of Life Lutheran Church, Ransey, MN <br />July 26, 2022 <br />Pinnacle Project Number: EM20225225 <br />
