The wetland plant species documented at the transect for Area F include: Reed canarygrass, Glossy buckthorn, Canada blue joint grass, and Giant goldenrod. The wetland soil sample documented at the transect for Area F was comprised mainly of sand with some peat to a depth of 24 ". The soil in the upland pit was primarily fine sand with a thin sandy organic duff layer. The matrix color indicated a hydric soil (low - chroma) for the wetland soil pit within the wetland boundary. Organic streaking was present in the upland soil pit. The soils in and around Area F are mapped as Soderville fine sand and Isanti fine sandy loam. V. SUMMARY CCES conducted a routine wetland delineation in the City of Lino Lake's Woolan's Park which is located at the end of Diane Street in Lino Lakes, Minnesota. The National Wetland Inventory Map indicates two wetland types present on the subject property (PEMFd) and (PFO1 Bd). The Soil Survey of Anoka County, Minnesota indicates the area within and surrounding the delineated wetland boundary as being comprised of Isanti fine sandy loam, Soderville fine sand, and Zimmerman fine sand soils, of which only Isanti fine sandy loam is classified as being a hydric soil. The DNR Protected Waters Map does not indicate any protected water under DNR jurisdiction within the subject property. A single wetland complex was delineated using standard wetland delineation methods. The boundary of the single wetland complex was flagged by CCES staff and was then located with sub -meter accuracy GPS instrumentation. Page 9 of 9 • •
