527 Owasso Hills Drive <br />Number 06089M <br />Results <br />One wetland edge was delineated on the parcel; the specific location of the edge can be obtained <br />from the survey company who located it <br />According to the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Protected Water Inventory (PWI) <br />of Ramsey County (Sheet 1 of 1), there were no "Protected Waters" mapped on the parcel <br />The National Wetlands In�entory (NWI) identiiies the wetland across the road to the east, but <br />does not identify any wetland at the location of Basin 1. <br />The Soil Survey of Washington and Ramsey Counties (page 13) identifies the soils on the <br />parcel. The data forms describe the soil information along the edge. Soils mapped on the parcel <br />include: <br />342C Kingsley sandy loam <br />1055 Aquolls and Histosols <br />Edge Description <br />Basin 1 was a Type 5 wetland (PUBC) that had standing water during the time of the site <br />' examination, but was described by the landowners as being dry during the summertime (with <br />deeper pond portions in the northern and southern portion of the basin). <br />' <br />' <br />The landowner described this wetland as being a typical wetland vegetated in normal wetland <br />vegetation when they first moved in (around 1997). By 1998 or 1999, the wetland began to have <br />an increased water level that flooded out the normal vegetation and also the trees that had been <br />along the original shoreline, considerably downslope from the current edge. <br />A diagram provided by the Architect of a diagram from the City showed ponds north and south <br />' of the property. The ponds were not shown to connect. It appears that the water is higher now <br />compared to what the design plan showed. <br />' <br />�J <br />' <br />' <br />Reed canary grass was the dominant vegetation in the vegetated fringe, along with a few green <br />ash sapling size trees right at the new edge (which would be the new edge since the late 1990's. <br />Species observed in the adjacent upland included a Kentucky bluegrass lawn with some ground <br />ivy. <br />' Copyright O 2006, Aquatic EcoSolutions, Inc. <br />Ecological Solutions to Environmental Challenges <br />1 <br />Page 3 of 4 <br />
