WETLAND DELINEATION RI WETLAND FILLING DOCUMEN AND WETLAND MITIGATION POTTER'S COMMERCIAL .l ALBERTVILLE, MINNESC GME PROJECT NO. 107, November 10, 2004 Prepared for: Mr. Michael Potter 11650 57th Street 1. North Albertville, Minnesota ! Copyright, 2004 - GME Consultants, Inc. - GME CONSULTANTS, INC. November 10, 2004 Mr. Michael Potter 11650 57th Street Northeast Albertville', Minnesota 55301 RE: Wetland Delineation Report Wetland Mitigation Plan .fo .the southwest .quadrant of in Albertville, Minnesota Dear Mr. Potter: GME Project No. 10744 Wetland Filling Documentation, and r Potter's Commercial Park located in County Road 37 and Mackenzie Avenue We have completed the .wetland delineation services and: -documentation of filling.of wetlands at the above=referenced Property, following your authorization of our proposal dated November 11, 2003. In this report we. have also ._present your plans for `mitigating wetland impacts at. the: Property conducted during development of Potter's Commercial Park.under the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' (COE) permit number 88-252-23 In the fall of 2003, we.reviewed several published wetland resources and conducted fieldwork: to delineate the current, boundary of wetlands. We marked the wetland boundary.with flagging, and used a global positioning system (.GPS) to locate the delineation points. Prior to conducting the fieldwork, we reviewed aerial photographs of the Property from 1981 through 1999 that were provided by the Wright County Soil and. Water Conservation District (SWCD)'. We used these photographs to identify possible wetland areas and document the change -in wetlands over the years.. We also used statements you made about the Property combined with these records to determine the major activities impacting wetlands on the Property. Our computer assisted .drafting (CAD) staff digitized the 1989 survey map of the Property that was prepared by Meyer-Rohlin, Inc. and overlaid that map on the 1986 aerial photograph to identify the 1986 wetland boundary and calculate the area of wetlands located within the proposed Potter's Commercial Park project area. We used the same process with the 1994 aerial photograph to identify wetlands filled prior to 1994. Using our delineation of the current wetland boundaries and the 1986 and 1994 maps, we calculated the approximate square footage of wetlands filled after 1986 and after 1993. GME CONSULTANTS. INC. Mr. Michael Potter 2 November 10, 2004 GME Project No. 10744 We calculated that there were approximately 79,880 square feet of wetland in the north parcel and 41,389 square feet of wetland in the south parcel, based on the 1986 aerial photograph. A total of 2.78 acres of wetland were permitted by the COE to be filled during the development of Potter's Commercial Park from 1988 through 1993. Based on. the 1994 aerial photograph (see Figure 3),.approximately 10.,000 square feet of wetland in the north .parcel were filled -by the end of 1993. -Based on our field delineation of wetlands in 2003 as compared to. wetlands that: existed. at the, end of, 1993, approximately 0.5 acre.of'wetland was filled from 1994 through.2003 as suitable fill became available for Potter's.Commercial Park. You have made it clear. that . Mr. . Henrich Strandl.of of the COE recommended that you establish earthen berms along the boundaries of. the project area by the -end of 1993 'to allow for filling of wetlands be the berms and upland areas. You have also stated that you have not filled wetlands- outside of the bermed area after 1993, except for side -cast material associated with .drainage maintenance at the outlet under. Mackenzie Avenue and the inlet.from the housing development southeast of the Property,.as described in this report. The berms that you established .on the north parcel are., visible in various stages in the 1990 and 1991 aerial photographs included in this report.. A comparison of the 1994 aerial photograph to the map of our 2003 wetland delineation indicates that wetlands filled. in the northern parcel after .1993 were located north of the berms visible..in the 1994 aerial photograph. This report outlines the methods used- to conduct our delineations, presents documentation about wetland .filling and alteration of wetland hydrology on the Property, discusses our findings, and describes your plans for mitigating wetland impacts. SITE LOCATION AND DESCRIPTION The Property is located in the southwest quadrant of -the intersection of Mackenzie Avenue and County Road 37, in the northwest corner of Section 6, Township 120 North, Range 23 West, in Albertville, Wright County, Minnesota. The approximately 16 acre Property is roughly divided -into two areas. The northern area extends from- Mackenzie Avenue to the St. .Albert Cemetery south of County Road 37. . The south .area is located between Mackenzie Avenue and the Interstate Highway 94 right-of-way, south of St. Albert Cemetery. GME CONSULTANTS. INC. Mr. Michael Potter GME Project No. 10744 3 November 10, 2004 A dirt --road crosses the south area from the southeast corner at Mackenzie Avenue. to near the southwest _corner of the St. Albert Cemetery.. This road reportedly was constructed by the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MNDOT) for hauling fill from a borrow pit located southeast of the Property during the construction of Interstate 94. Potter's Commercial Park is a development that will include the two portions of the .Property.' The north parcel exists roughly between the I St. -Albert.: Cemetery and Mackenzie ,Avenue, and - the south parcel is a single, lot in the southeast corner of the Property. These areas are -outlined in Figures 2.and 3. We observed two.wetland- basins on the.Property that are separated by the haul road. 'The .wetlands are connected by a. culvert located-- beneath the haul road. The wetlands currently extend into an area, that has been excavated in the north parcel as part of some soil corrections that were done in about 2002. We also observed a drainage ditch. along. Mackenzie Avenue that you :explained had been excavated prior. to 1993. We observed a culvert (inlet) in the southeastern corner of the Property that. appears to receive stormwater from the housing development.l-ocated to the southeast of the Property. The Property survey map completed by Meyer-Rohlin, Inc. in 1989 shows another culvert (inlet) in the northeastern corner of the Property. You explained that this inlet was a drain tile that had 'been exposed during earthwork in 1991., .The ditch along the eastern boundary of the northeast portion of the Property appears to drain to the south into the wetland. According to the survey map, a 42-inch culvert exists west of the Property draining stormwater from* I-.94 to wetlands apparently connected to wetlands on the west side of the Property. We observed ,an 18-inch culvert (outlet) near the east -central boarder of the Property that drains to an open. ditch approximately mile east of. the Property. The. inlets and outlet as represented on a 1989 survey map of the Property, are shown on Figure' '2 of this report. GME CONSULTANTS. INC. Mr. Michael Potter 4 November 10, 2004 GME Project No. 10744 WETLAND DETERMINATION DELINEATION PROCEDURES Review of Published Information Prior to performing our fieldwork, we reviewed the Wright County Soil Survey Map, the USGS 7.5-minute St. Michael Quadrangle Map, the Minnesota ..Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Public Water Inventory (PWI) Map, and the National '-Wetland ..Inventory (NWI) Map. Copies of the quadrangle map, the Wright County Soil Survey Map- the NWI Map, and the DNR PWI Map are attached as Figures 1, 6, 5, and.7, respectively. We also reviewed :the '1979 through 19'99 aerial photographs available._ at the Wright County Soil -and Water Conservation District Office. Several annotated aerial photographs are included in Appendix A. .Field Methods Our delineation was based on- the 1987 Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual, as required by the. Minnesota Wetland Conservation Act (WCA). This. manual. bases the wetland determination on significant -aspects of three wetland characteristics: hydric soil conditions, hydrophytic vegetation, and hydrology. These are further described below. We used" -routine and some comprehensive wetland delineation methods to delineate wetlands 'on the Property for 1986, 1993, and 2003'as described'in this report. Mr. Aaron Brewer, GME Wetland Specialist, observed for the three wetland characteristics across the Property and- staked the boundary between the wetland and upland -with flagging. Some techniques ,for delineating wetlands in atypical situations also were employed where surficial soils had been disturbed and vegetation had been mowed. A diagram of the Property with our four delineation transect locations and two test pit locations are presented as Figure 3. The corresponding data forms also are attached. The delineation transects typically -included two to four test areas per transect where we collected soil, hydrology, and vegetation data along the upland/wetland boundary. The test pits .were hand -dug to at least 18 inches deep when necessary and/or when the site conditions permitted. The vegetation was observed in about a 5-foot radius of each test pit' for herbs, and about a 30-foot radius for vines, shrubs, and trees. nue rnmain remrs swr Mr. Michael Potter 5 November 10, 2004 GME Project No. 10744 Our delineation work was conducted on November 11, 13, and 14, 2003. The soil temperature at a depth of 20 inches was 380F to 42OF on these dates. Soil temperatures at 20 inches below surface that are lower than 41OF are an indication that the growing season has ended. Wetland Soil Indicators We reviewed the National Hydric Soils List to assess:.the possible hydric status of the soils on the. site. Please note that identification of a soil on this .list does not positively indicate that a -soil-is hydric in the field. Hydric soils are formed. by long-term saturation (7 to 40 days. per year) during.a growing season when soil temperatures are above 5°C.- Therefore, soil saturated outside of the growing season would .not likely exhibit redoximorphic features and would not be considered hydric. Field determination of whether a soil is hydric or non-hydric is based on indicators listed in the 1987 Corps Manual, and -on regional indicators compiled by -the Natural Resources 'Conservation Service (MRCS), National-Technical_"Committee for Hydric Soils (NTCHS). The atypical soil conditions that we encountered during our fieldwork include the excavated depression in the northern _portion. of the .Property where transect 1' was located. The delineation boundary in that area was Nbased on the current vegetation type and landscape position as described in the .Wetland. Delineation Results Section of this report. For the purposes of the 2003 wetland delineation, areas- covered by fill soil recently or historically, and where wetland vegetation or hydrology were determined not to be present, were considered upland. Some of the fill areas were formerly wetland areas, as indicated in the 1986 and 1993 delineations. Wetland Vegetation Indicators During -our delineation work, we observed the vegetation types and recorded their wetland indicator status. Indicator status is based on the "National List of Plant Species that Occur in Wetlands" published by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. This national list separates vascular plants into the following five basic groups: GME CONSULTANTS, INC. Mr. Michael Potter 6 November 10, 2004 GME Project No. 10744 1 Obligate wetland plants (OBL) that occur almost always (estimated probability greater than 99%) in wetlands under natural conditions; 2. Facultative wetland plants (FACW) that usually occur in wetlands (estimated probability 67%- 99%), but occasionally are found in non -wetlands; 3. Facultative plants (FAC) that are equally likely to occur in wetlands or non -wetlands (estimated probability 34% to 66%) FAC is further divided into FAC+ for plants on the wetter. end of the spectrum, and FAC- for plants on the dryer end of -the spectrum; 4. Facultative upland : plants (FAC&) that usually occur in non -wetlands (estimated probability 67% to 99%), but occasionally are found in wetlands; and, 5. Obligate upland plants (UPL) that- occur almost always (estimated probability greater than 990-6) in non -wetlands under natural conditions. The wetland criterion is met when more than 50% of the dominant species are OBL, FACW, or FAC (excluding the subgroup FAC-) The Corps of Engineer's 50/20 Rule was used to determine the dominant species in each plant stratum (i.e herbaceous, shrub, vine, and tree layers). Wetland Hydrolgqy Indicators We observed for evidence of periodic soil inundation or saturation within 12 inches. of the surface during the growing. season. We also observed for other indicators of wetland hydrology, including County Soil Survey data, oxidized root channels in. the upper 12 inches of soil, water -stained leaves, sediment deposits, drift lines, and water marks. According to the November 2003 HydroClim Journal published by the State Climatology Office at the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Waters Division, much of the state was under a'moderate to severe drought during the time of the delineation. This conclusion was supported by data on the U.S. Drought Monitor published by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), GME CONSULTANTS_ INC I I I I I Mr. Michael Potter GME Project No. 10744 7 November 10, 2004 httQ://www.drought.unl.edu/dm/monitor.html. The U.S. Drought Monitor data was valid for November 11, 2003. Because of the abnormally dry soil conditions, evidence of primary wetland hydrology (e.g., inundated or saturated soils) was not observed. In addition, the identification of secondary wetland indicators (e.g., redoximorphic features) were not heavily relied upon because these features may have been relicts from the fill soil. Based on the paucity of the hydrology indicators in.. the field, this wetland determination/delineation was completed by mainly relying on vegetation, observations of the landscape position, and aerial Photographs. Wetland Classification We classified jurisdictional wetland basins that we. observed using the "Cowardin criteria, published in Wetlands and Deepwater Habitats of the United States .(Cowardin et al.,' 1979), and the "Circular 39" criteria, published in Wetlands of the :United States USFWS Circular 39 (Shaw , and Fredine 1971)'. The Cowardin classification, its abbreviation, and the Circular 39- classification are given for each jurisdictional wetland basin identified. WETLAND -DELINEATION RESULTS Published Data Review We reviewed the USGS 7.5 Minute St. Michael Quadrangle Map that was based on a 1975 aerial photograph field. checked in 1976. The topographic map depicts marsh areas on the southern portion of the Property. The St. Albert Cemetery was visible in its current configuration, but Mackenzie Avenue had not been constructed. A more recent USGS topographic map (likely updated with a 1991 era aerial photograph) depicts an exaggerated area of open water on the Property, likely a result of the high precipitation from 1990 and 1991 and other conditions on the Property described below. The more recent. 7.5 minute map was used in Figure 5 as a background for the NWI Map. In our interpretation of the DNR PWI Map (Figure 7), we did not identify "public waters" on the Property. GME CONSULTANTS, INC. Mr. Michael Potter 8 November 10, 2004 GME Project No. 10744 The NWI Map (Figure 4) was based on aerial photography from May, 1980; the map was published in 1991. The NWI Map shows the St. Albert Cemetery and indicates where the haul road crosses the wetland area. Wetlands were identified on much of the southern portion of the Property extending slightly onto the northern parcel. The wetlands were classified as a palustrine wetland with emergent vegetation with a nucleus of semi -permanently flooded area surrounded by seasonally flooded wetlands. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Soil Survey.Map for Wright County (Figure 3) was compiled from fieldwork completed. in the period from 1955 to 1961 and reflects the conditions of the site prior to 1965. The soil survey map indicates that most of the south parcel was mapped as Glencoe silty clay loam, which is bordered by Cordova and Webster silty clay loams. Hayden loam with 2 to 6% slopes was mapped in. the northern portion of the north parcel and adjacent to the south of the cemetery. The soil survey map also indicates an area of Dunda•s Ames silt loam in the northeastern corner, of the Property. The Cordova, Dundas, Ames, and Glencoe soils are listed in the National Hydric Soils List as hydric soils.. The Webster silty clay loam and Hayden loam are not listed in the National Hydric Soils List. Aerial Photocrraphs and Other Historical Data In our review, of the aerial photographs from Wright County dated from 1979 through 1999, we documented.. signif icant - changes to the landscape and hydrology. We have al.s-o been provided with Wright County's Wetland Documentation Record Remotely Sensed Data Summary that was completed by Colleen Allen of Wright County Soil and Water Conservation District (SWCD), Todd, Udvig of Short Eliot Hendrickson (SEH, representing the. City of Albertville), and Lynda Peterson of the Board of Water and Soil Resources (BWSR). Several of the aerial photographs are included in the Appendix. We annotated several of the aerial' photographs with notes and lines identifying features, including possible wetland boundaries. The 1979 through 1983 aerial photographs showed similar features on the Property with the St. Albert Cemetery adjacent to the northwest, an agricultural field in most of the north parcel and in areas around the cemetery, with a dirt road (haul road) crossing the south parcel through a wetland. In the earlier aerial photographs (see the 1981 and 1982 photographs in the Appendix), the majority of the wetland area appeared to be south of the haul road, with smaller portions of wetland adjacent to GME CONSULTANTS- INC Mr. Michael Potter 9 November 10, 2004 GME Project No. 10744 the north of the road. In wetlands in the middle of wetlands with some standing that were bordered, by upland. field during our delineation. these and subsequent photographs, the the Property appeared to be Type 3 water, surrounded by Type 2 wetlands This transition was visible in the Mackenzie Avenue was first visible in the 1984 aerial photograph. The wetland areas north and south of the haul road appeared to have enlarged after the construction of Mackenzie Avenue. According to the Wright County Wetland Documentation Record, 1986 was a normal rainfall year followed by two years of drier than normal rainfall. Based on that information and the quality of those photographs, we estimated the wetland boundary of the Property prior to the development -of Potter's Commercial Park on the 1986 aerial photograph. Our CAD technician digitized the 1989 survey map provided by Mey.er- .Rohlin and overlaid the 1986aerialphotograph matching the scale. We highlightedthe apparent wetland boundary on the photograph based on color patterns observed in the photograph. The central portion of the wetlands had areas of what appeared to be open water. Those areas are likely Type 3 wetlands and were surrounded by concentric rings of.a light band and a' darker band that we believe are -Type 2 wetlands. The resulting wetland boundary is similar to the soil survey map _boundary between Glencoe Silty Clay Loam and Hayden Loam and Dundas/Ames Silt Loams. The area also is similar to the proposed wetland fill area represented by hatch lines on the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers permit (Appendix B), and is somewhat similar to the NWI Map wetland representation (Figure 5). Using the resulting figure, we calculated the area of wetland in 1986 proposed to be filled for -Potter's Commercial Park at approximately 121,269 square feet (2.78 acres). In the 1989 aerial photograph, hay was seen being harvested from the northern parcel extending into the probable wetland area, and in the southeastern corner of the Property between Mackenzie Road and the dirt road. In. the 1990 and 1991 aerial photographs, areas of the Property and adjacent parcels appeared to be more inundated than in any of' the other .aerial photographs reviewed. According to Mr. Potter, these years corresponded with a period when the outlet from the Property under Mackenzie Avenue had been blocked by several rocks placed into and around the culvert. Precipitation in 1990 and 1991 were above average for the area, according to the Wright County SWCD. r:Monnwawreura IWr t Mr. Michael Potter 10 November 10, 2004 GME Project No. 10744 You stated that during this period, you constructed soil berms on the south end of the north parcel in an effort to prevent the water from ponding on the north parcel. The 1990.aerial photograph shows where soils were excavated on the west portion of the north parcel and used to fill wetlands. The 1991 aerial photographs shows where you had cut soil and placed it in a berm on the south side of the north parcel. A soil berm also is first visible in this photograph along the northern boundary of the south parcel. You explained that Mr. Henrick Strandlof of the COE told you that you would not receive an extension of your filling permit for the project after 1993. Mr. Strandlof suggested that you establish soil berms along the boundary of.his. project area before the expiration of his permit, implying that constructing the berms would be adequate to separate the proj-ect area from the wetlands, and allow you to complete the filling of wetlands after the permit expired. You explained that, the berm- on the north parcel had the inadvertent effect 'of ponding water on the northern parcel' when it was constructed. You also had inadvertently exposed a drain tile during grading activities that subsequently drained water onto the.northern parcel of the Property. Notes from the Wright County Wetland Documentation Record indicate that 1990, 1991, and 1993 were wetter than normal years. The high water levels during this time period appear to have been exacerbated by the partly blocked outlet beneath Mackenzie Avenue, which was repaired in 1997 by the City of Albertville to improve drainage. The 1992 aerial photograph is of relatively poor quality and does not show definitive wetland boundaries on the north or south parcels. The 1994 aerial photograph shows the first evidence of the soil berm that you stated that you placed along the northern boundary of the south parcel toward the latter part of 1993. The 1995 aerial photograph shows evidence of grading activity in the northern parcel of the Property. You stated that additional fill was placed on areas previously filled and in areas north of the berm on the south side of the north parcel established prior to 1993. The 1996 and 1997 aerial photographs are poor quality, and do not represent the Property well. However, some surficial disturbance was visible near the entrance to the Property from Mackenzie Avenue in the 1997 aerial photograph. The 1998 aerial photograph shows recent grading activities in the northeastern corner of the north parcel. The 1999 aerial photograph shows remnants of the filling @IMF rnma ILTAYTR INC Mr. Michael Potter 11 November 10, 2004 GME Project No. 10744 activity noted in the 1998 aerial photograph. In summary, our review of the aerial photographs and of the Wright County aerial documentation, and your statements indicate that the construction of Mackenzie Avenue along the east boundary of the Property surface expanded the extent of the wetlands on the Property by altering the hydrology. The aerial photographs show that the areas of open water expanded toward the north parcel, representing the rising elevation of the wetland water table pushing the wetland boundary northward after the construction of Mackenzie Avenue. The change in hydrology was exacerbated by the inadequate outlet constructed under Mackenzie Avenue and the above average precipitation received in 1990, 1991, and 1993, when you ,were at to complete the filling described in your Corps of Engineers permit: Field Work Results Northern Parcel Transect A was located near the narrow portion of the wetland area that extends onto the north parcel and into-. areas of fill in the southeast corner of the north parcel. These wetland areas were dominated by hydrophytic vegetation that included Phalaris arundinacea (reed canary grass, FACW+), and a Polyganum species that was assumed to be a wetland indicator species, based on the plant habitat. The plants encountered in the upland areas include Poa pratensis (Kentucky blue grass, FAC-), Setaria viridis (green foxtail, UPL), and Circium arvense (Canada thistle, FACU). The soils in. plots lA and 1B consisted .of, very dark gray to black (10YR 3/1 to N 2/0) silty clay with a high _organic matter content over black (10YR2%1 to N2/0) hemic peat. These soils appear to be fill, or otherwise disturbed. The soils in plot 1C consisted of very dark gray hemic peat that reportedly had been removed from nearby areas to create a berm. Primary hydrology indicators were not present in the pits during the delineation due to drought conditions in the region. The FAC-neutral test was used to identify wetland hydrology in plots lA and 1B, along with the aerial photographs. Wetland hydrology was determined not to be present in plot 1C where the berm created a 2 to 3 foot elevation difference between the berm and the adjacent wetland area. Plot 1D was dominated by reed canary grass and Kentucky blue grass; however, the area had been mowed during the growing season. It is SNIE CnNSULTANTS_ INC, Mr. Michael Potter 12 November 10, 2004 GME Project No. 10744 probable that the adjacent vegetation at the same elevation that was not mowed would be similar to plot 1D, in our opinion. This un- mowed area was dominated by upland plants such as green foxtail and Canada thistle. The soils in plot 1D appeared to be sandy silty clay fill, with a mixed matrix color ranging from dark gray to black (10YR 4/2 to 10YR 2/1), and mottling of various colors including 10YR 3/4 and 2.5Y 4/2. Transect 2 was located on the northwest side of the apparent wetland that had been excavated near the center of the northern parcel beginning in 2001. Plot 2A was located in an upland area and was dominated by upland species including Chenopodium alba (lambs quarters, FAC-), and green foxtail. Other plant species identified in the upland area included Kentucky blue grass and Melilotus officinalis (yellow sweet clover, FACU). The soils in plot 2A consisted of silt loams ranging in color from dark yellowish brown to dark gray (10YR 4/4 to 10YR 4/1), with mottle colors ranging from dark yellowish brown to light gray (10YR 3/6 to 10YR 7/2). Plot 23 was dominated by reed canary grass, a Polyganum species, and Plantago major (common plantain, FAC t +). The soils in plot 1B consisted of silty clay loam with similar matrix colors and mottling. as identified in the upland test pit. This soil pit passed the FAC- neutral test, and wetland hydrology was likely satisfied based on the proximity of -the soil pit to an area dominated by cattails, and indications that water had pooled at that location. The 2003 wetland boundary on the north boundary was delineated mainly based on the vegetation, landscape position, and historical data. Southern Parcel Transects 3 and 4 were located in the southeast corner of the Property where a driveway connected Mackenzie Avenue to the haul road that had been constructed through the wetland area. Plot 3A was excavated in an area_ that had recently been burned, but we observed reed canary grass and Typha latifolia (cattail, OBL) remnants. The soils encountered in the pit consisted of hemic peat with matrix colors ranging from dark gray, to black (10YR3/1 to 2/1). The area is mapped as Glencoe Silty Clay Loam; in the Wright County Soil Survey, this soil series frequently has a layer of surficial peat over the silty clay loam. Plot 3B was dug in the driveway located between the haul road and Mackenzie Avenue where the vegetation was dominated by reed canary grass and green foxtail. We encountered fill soil with textures ranging from sandy clay loam to sandy silt. The delineation GME CONSULTANTS. INC Mr. Michael Potter 13 November 10, 2004 GME Project No. 10744 boundary at Transect 3 was identified mainly based on changes in vegetation, fill soils, and landscape position. Transect 4 was located on the south side of the haul road in the southeast corner of the Property where the wetland boundary was defined between the wetland areas that were dominated by reed canary grass and Salix species (willow trees and shrubs) and upland areas that were dominated by these same wetland species mixed with upland species such as Kentucky blue grass and Salidago canadinsis (Canada goldenrod, FACU). The soils in the wetland area were a mix of black (10YR 2/1) silt loam and light gray (10YR 7/2) fine to medium sand over black (10YR 2/1) silt mixed with hemic peat. These wetland soils were likely a mix of naturally deposited soils and fill soils, given their proximity to the haul road. Plot TP-1 was located in a sandy area between the original haul road and a driveway connecting the haul road to Mackenzie Avenue. The soils ranged in texture from silty sand to sandy clay loam with .gravel and the matrix colors were mostly brown (10YR 4/3) with a few dark yellowish brown (10YR 4/6) mottles present from 7 to 9 inches below ground surface. The vegetation at plot TP-1 was dominated by green foxtail, Panicum capilare (witch grass, FAC), Ambrosia artamesifolia (ragweed, FACU), and yellow sweet clover. We determined that the test pit was not located in a wetland. Plot TP-2 was located on the berm along the northern boundary of the proposed lot in the southeast corner of the Property. The berm was dominated by reed canary grass. The soils encountered in the pit were mixed silt and hemic peat that had low chroma colors. Due.to the presence of fill soils in the berm and drought conditions, hydrology was not confirmed at soil pit TP-2. However, wetland hydrology is unlikely to be present on the berm based on its higher elevation. We observed a pile of soil on the eastern boundary of the Property near the outlet: You explained that this pile was left from the reconstruction of the water outlet in 1997. We delineated wetlands. near the base of the soil stockpile. During our site work, we observed an area of excavated soil in the southeastern corner of the Property. You said that this side -cast material was left after a ditch was excavated within the wetland area to help drain surface water from the development located east of Mackenzie Avenue after stormwater had backed up at the housing development. GME CONSULTANTS. INC. Mr. Michael Potter 14 November 10, 2004 GME Project No. 10744 DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS The purpose of this wetland delineation was to identify the 1986, 1993, and 2003 wetland boundaries. This wetland delineation was conducted on the approximately 16 acre property where the proposed Potter's Commercial Park is located. Since 1986, portions of wetland area were filled as part of the development of Potter's Commercial Park, which was granted a permit in 1989 by the U.S. ACE that was extended through 1993. During the course of the delineation, we reviewed aerial photographs and other historical information and physical setting data that indicated changes in the extent of wetlands on the Property from 1981 through 1999. According to .the aerial photographs and our conversations with you, the wetland area appears to have expanded as a result of the construction of Mackenzie Avenue and by the. temporary plugging of an outlet from the Property. The outlet reportedly was repaired in both 1991 and again in 1997, before the effectiveness of the outlet was restored. The wetland in the south parcel is divided by the haul road that had been constructed to access a borrow pit during the construction of I-94. A culvert through the road connects the northern parcel wetland to the southern parcel wetland. The wetland boundary in the north parcel was mainly identified by observing the dominant vegetation types, which transitioned from cattails to reed canary grass within the wetland to a variety of plants in the upland areas that included common ragweed, Kentucky blue grass, and green foxtail. The berms in the north parcel consisted of fill that had been cut from the surface of the north parcel. The vegetation on the berms was dominated by a Polyganum species, reed canary grass, giant ragweed, and Canada goldenrod. The dominant plant species on the berms are hydrophtic plants that also tend to compete well on the fringes of wetlands. The berms were determined to be upland based on the absence of hydrology, which is unlikely to be present based on the elevation change of the berms in relation to the wetland areas. Similar elevation differences and vegetation patterns were observed on the berm in the southeastern corner of the Property, which also was determined to be upland. During our wetland delineation fieldwork, the measured soil temperatures at approximately 20 inches below the ground surface between 380F and 48°F. The Corps of Engineers definition of the growing season references a soil temperature at 20 inches below GMS CONSULTANTS. INC. Mr. Michael Potter 15 November 10, 2004 GME Project No. 10744 surface above 41°F; thus the delineation work was conducted during the latter part of the growing period. However, the vegetation during the delineation was readily identifiable, in our opinion. Based on our fieldwork, the 1989 COE permit, the site survey map, and our review of the aerial photographs, the apparent 1986 wetland boundary resulted in approximately 2.78 acres of wetlands within the areas proposed to be filled for the Potter's Commercial Park project under the COE permit. The COE permit allowed filling approximately 3 acres of wetland, but the permit did not involve a formal delineation. Based on our delineation conducted in 2003 and the wetland boundary that we located with GPS, it appears that 1.79 acres of wetlands remain within the proposed project area. Using those areas, it appears that approximately 0.99 acre (43,124 square feet) of wetland has been filled. Based on the estimated wetland boundary in the 1994 aerial photograph, it appears that approximately 10,000 square feet. of wetland were filled prior to 1994 in the.north parcel. The wetland areas filled on the north parcel after 1993 were located between the berms that were established prior to 1994. You have stated that based on instructions you received by the COE in 1993, you believed that you were allowed by the U.S. ACE to fill wetlands between the berms and the existing upland area. Wetland Mitigation Plan In the summer of 2004, you received a letter from the COE regarding filling of the wetlands on the north parcel. The letter stated that filling of the wetlands after the expiration of the permit at the end of 1993, and failure to complete compensatory wetland mitigation for the permitted impact, are violations of Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. Although you believe that the filling was done in compliance with instructions you received from the COE, you have stated your intentions to come into compliance with the COE permit, which expired at the end of 1993, and your intentions to apply for a new COE permit for your project. You stated that you intend to apply for the COE permit in approximately 2 years, when you intend to commence the stage of construction that will impact the wetlands in the remaining project area. It is our understanding that you propose to purchase 43,124 square feet of new wetland credits from an off -site wetland bank to mitigate at the required 1:1 ratio established in your permit for _the wetland areas that have been filled. We also understand that you plan to excavate the berm on the north side of the southeast GME CONSULTANTS. INC. Mr. Michael Potter 16 GME Project No. 10744 November 10, 2004 parcel, which will revert back to wetland. You have also indicated your intent to remove the side -cast materials from near the surface water outlet at Mackenzie Avenue so it can revert back to wetland. We recommend that these areas be excavated to the elevation matching the surrounding wetlands, and that they be left to re-establish vegetation from the surrounding seed bank. To assess the functions and values of the wetlands that have been filled and are planned to be replaced, we assumed some of the wetland functions based on information we have. about the former wetlands, and made observations of the functions and values of the remaining adjacent wetland area. The wetlands that were filled appear to have been Type 2 wetlands that were usually not inundated, but may have been saturated within a few inches of the surface during portions of the growing season. Based on the setting and hydrologic regime of the filled wetland areas, it is our opinion that they provided minimal storm water storage capacity, water quality protection, or groundwater recharge. The vegetation at the adjacent wetlands are dominated by variety of reed canary grass that is a non-native invasive species. The resulting vegetative diversity is relatively low. The impacted wetland is not located within zone, it does not support fish, it is not education purposes, and it does not have functions and values of wetlands that would wetland bank would likely match or surpass wetlands on the property, in our opinion.
