Community AC -W6 Seasonally Flooded Basin Qualitative Rank: Low Area: 0.01 acres (0.08 total) This is a small reed canary grass dominated basin that is effectively drained by a swale to the southwest. Restoring hydrology would be difficult in this basin due to its close proximity to a house. Community AC -W7 Seasonally Flooded Basin Qualitative Rank: Low Area: 0.4 acres Sedimentation has reduced hydrology of this basin and also contributed to a change in vegetation to predominately reed canary grass. Prior to the sedimentation is like a shallow marsh that contained 6- inches or more of water with emergent species like bulrush, spikerush, arrowhead, and cattail. Sedimentation has reduced the hydrology and it currently mimics a seasonally flooded basin that is temporarily flooded after rain events but is likely often well drained during City of Roseville 76 Parks Natural Resource Management
