RE: Project Name: Manthey – Long Lake Delineation Report
Comm. No.: 2017-130
Project Location: Scandia – Washington County
PID# 27.032.20.44.0003
T32N, R20W, Section 27
Project Description: Wetland Delineation Report
Jacobson Environmental, PLLC. (JE) visited the above referenced site on May 24 and June 16, 2017 to
perform an official wetland delineation in accordance with the 1987 U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
Wetland Delineation Manual and the 2012 Regional Supplement to the Corps of Engineers Wetland
Delineation: Northcentral and Northeast Region.
The investigated area was approximately 28 acres in size, and was south of 14440 Old Marine Trail North
in Scandia, Minnesota. See Figure 1 for a Site Location Map. The National Wetlands Inventory (NWI)
map identified five wetlands within the property boundaries. The Web soil survey indentified the soils
Santiago silt loam (rating=0), Rosholt sandy loam (rating=0), Comstock silt loam (rating=4), Barronett silt
loam (rating=92), Duluth silt loam (rating=3), and water (rating=0) on the site. The DNR Public Waters
Inventory identified PWI wetland 82006800 within the investigated boundaries. Eight basins were
delineated within the site boundaries, which are summarized below. Note, there is no Basin 7.

The growing season in this area is approximately from mid-April to mid-October, when the air temperature
averages above 28 degrees F. This delineation was completed during the growing season. The previous
three month’s precipitation data suggests that the delineation and sampling was conducted during wetter
than normal conditions, though it is unlikely this affected delineated boundaries. Antecedent precipitation
data is located in Appendix A.

All figures and appendices referenced by this report are presented at the end of the text. The purpose of
this study was to investigate the project area, identify areas meeting the technical criteria for wetlands,
delineate the jurisdictional extent of the wetland basins, and classify the wetland habitat.
This wetland delineation was performed and reported by Wayne Jacobson, Minnesota Professional Soil
Scientist #30611, Society of Wetland Scientists – Professional Wetland Scientist #1000, University of
Minnesota / BWSR Wetland Delineator, Certified #1019, American Fisheries Society – Associate
Fisheries Scientist #A-171.
Methodology
The wetlands on the subject property were delineated using the routine determination methodology set
forth in the 1987 U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Wetlands Delineation Manual. Wetland boundaries were
determined through a routine analysis of the vegetation, soils and hydrology which must all show wetland
characteristics in order for an area to be delineated as a wetland. Wetlands are areas that are saturated
or inundated with surface and or groundwater at a frequency and duration sufficient to support, and that
under normal circumstances do support, a prevalence of vegetation typically adapted for life in hydric soil
conditions. Examples of wetlands include seasonally flooded basins, floodplain forests, wet meadows,
shallow and deep marshes, shrub swamps, wooded swamps, fens, and bogs.
Vegetation
The plant species within the parcel were catalogued and assigned a wetland indicator status according to :
Lichvar, R.W., Butterwick, N.C. Melvin, and W.N. Kirchner, 2014. The National Wetland Plant List: 2014
Update of Wetland Ratings, Phytoneuron 2014-41: 1-42.
In the text of this report and on the enclosed data forms, the plant indicator status follows the plant’s
scientific name unless a status has not been assigned. The hydrophytic plant criterion is met when more
than 50 percent of the dominant species by the 50/20 rule for each stratum (herb, shrub/sapling, tree, and
woody vine) were assigned an obligate (OBL)1, facultative wet (FACW), and/or facultative (FAC) wetland
status.
With the 50/20 rule, dominants are generally measured by absolute % cover in each stratum which
individually or collectively account for more than 50% of total vegetative cover in the stratum, plus any
other species which itself accounts for at least 20% of the total vegetativ e cover.
Soils
A hydric soil is a soil formed under conditions of saturation, flooding, or ponding long enough during the
growing season to develop anaerobic conditions in the upper part. If a soil exhibits the indicators of a
hydric soil or is identified as a hydric soil the hydric soil criterion is met.
The break between hydric and non-hydric soils was determined by excavating soil pits along transects
crossing the wetland/upland eco-tone and evaluating the soil colors, textures, and presence or absence
of redoximorphic indicators (i.e., mottles, gley or oxidized rhizospheres). Hydric Soil Indicators for the
1 OBL=Obligate Wetland, occurs an estimated 99% in wetlands. FACW=Facultative Wetland, has an estimated
67%-99% probability of occurrence in wetlands. FAC=Facultative, is equally likely to occur in wetlands and non -
wetlands, 34%-66% probability. FACU=Facultative Upland, occurs in wetlands only occasionally, 1%-23%
probability. UPL=Upland, almost never occurs in wetlands, <1% probability. NI= No Indicator, insufficient
information available to determine an indicator status. Positive or negative sign previo usly indicated a frequency
toward higher (+) or lower (-) frequency of occurrence with an category.

Midwest Region were noted as presented in the National Technical Committee for Hydric Soils Field
Indicators of Hydric Soils in the United States version 7.0 (USDA NRCS 2010) if present at each sample
point. Also, upper soil profiles were compared to the mapped or inclusionary soil series found in the
sample area for soil identification purposes.
Cautions used in applying the Field Indicators of Hydric Soils
There are hydric soils with morphologies that are difficult to interpret. These include soils with black, gray,
or red parent material; soils with high pH; soils high or low in content of organic matter; recently
developed hydric soils, and soils high in iron inputs. In some cases we do not currently have indicators to
assist in the identification of hydric soils in these situations. As long as the soil meets the definition of a
hydric soil, the lack of an indicator does not preclude the soil from being hydric. The indicators were
developed mostly to identify the boundary of hydric soil areas and generally work best on the margins.
Not all of the obviously wetter hydric soils will be identified by the indicators. Redoximorphic features are
most likely to occur in soils that cycle between anaerobic (reduced) and aerobic (oxidized) conditions.
Morphological features of hydric soils indicate that saturation and anaerobic conditions have existed
under either contemporary or former hydrologic regimes. Where soil morphology seems inconsistent with
the landscape, vegetation, or observable hydrology, it may be necessary to obtain the assistance of an
experienced soil or wetland scientist to determine whether the soil is hydric.
To clarify on some Washington County sites,
1. Many of these soils have black or gray parent materials
2. Many of the soils have a high organic matter content
3. The hydric soil margin is typically higher than the wetland boundary margin on the site
4. Not all of the obviously wetter soils will be identified by the indicators
5. Many of the hydric soils are Mollisols which are classic problem hydric soils in many cases
Wetland Classification
Wetland classifications discussed in the text are set forth in Wetlands and Deepwater Habitats of the
United States (FWS/OBS Publication 79/31, Cowardin et al. 1979) and Wetlands of the United States
(USFWS Circular 39, Shaw and Fredine, 1971.) Additionally, plant community types as named by Eggers
and Reed (1998) are given.
Topographic maps, National Wetlands Inventory maps, the Web Soil Survey, Aerial Photographs, and
DNR Protected Waters maps were consulted to locate potential wetland habitats.
The Routine On-site Determination Method was used on this site. In this method, the following
procedures were used:
1) The vegetative community was sampled in all present strata to determine
whether 50% of the dominant plant species were hydrophytic using the 50/20 method.
2) Soil pits were dug using a dutch auger to depths of 18”-40”, noting soil profiles and any
hydric soil characteristics.
3) Signs of wetland hydrology were noted and were compared to field criteria such as depth
to shallow water table and depth of soil saturation found in the soil pits.

Wetland edges were marked with orange numbered pin flags. 4-foot wood lath marked with orange
“wetland boundary” flagging tape or flagging tied on vegetation may be used if site conditions warrant.
Any wetlands were mapped using modern survey methods by others. At least one sample point transect
crosses each delineated wetland edge. These transects consist of an upland sample point, and a
wetland sample point. Other sample points may be located in areas which have one or more of the
wetland vegetation, soils, or hydrologic characteristics present, or where questionable conditions exist.
Sample points are marked with orange pin flags with a pink ribbon tied on them. Sample data sheets are
found in Appendix B.

Confirmation of Jurisdictional Status
We are submitting this report to the client and regulatory agencies to request a wetland boundary and
type determination. We have enclosed an official WCA Approval of Wetland Type and Boundary form in
Appendix D along with a USCOE wetland delineation concurrence request.
Conclusion
This wetland delineation meets the standards and criteria described in the 1987 U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual and the 2012 Regional Supplement to the Corps of Engineers
Wetland Delineation: Northcentral and Northeast Region. This was a Routine On Site Determination and
the results reflect the conditions present at the time of the delineation.
If any wetland impacts are planned for this project, permits would be necessary from the LGU and other
agencies.
I certify that I performed the field analysis and wrote the report for this wetland delineation. Thank you for
the opportunity to provide wetland services on this important project.

Warning: Soil Map may not be valid at this scale.
Enlargement of maps beyond the scale of mapping can cause
misunderstanding of the detail of mapping and accuracy of soil
line placement. The maps do not show the small areas of
contrasting soils that could have been shown at a more detailed
scale.
Please rely on the bar scale on each map sheet for map
measurements.

Web Soil Survey URL:
Coordinate System: Web Mercator (EPSG:3857)
Maps from the Web Soil Survey are based on the Web Mercator
projection, which preserves direction and shape but distorts
distance and area. A projection that preserves area, such as the
Albers equal-area conic projection, should be used if more
accurate calculations of distance or area are required.
This product is generated from the USDA-NRCS certified data as
of the version date(s) listed below.
Soil Survey Area: Washington County, Minnesota
Survey Area Data: Version 11, Sep 19, 2016
Soil map units are labeled (as space allows) for map scales
1:50,000 or larger.
Date(s) aerial images were photographed: Mar 16, 2012—Apr
26, 2012
The orthophoto or other base map on which the soil lines were
compiled and digitized probably differs from the background
imagery displayed on these maps. As a result, some minor
shifting of map unit boundaries may be evident.

PART FOUR: Aquatic Resource Impact1 Summary
If your proposed project involves a direct or indirect impact to an aquatic resource (wetland, lake, tributary, etc.) identify each
impact in the table below. Include all anticipated impacts, including those expected to be temporary. Attach an overhead view map,
aerial photo, and/or drawing showing all of the aquatic resources in the project area and the location(s) of the proposed impacts.
Label each aquatic resource on the map with a reference number or letter and identify the impacts in the following table.

1If impacts are temporary; enter the duration of the impacts in days next to the “T”. For example, a project with a temporary access fill that
would be removed after 220 days would be entered “T (220)”.
2Impacts less than 0.01 acre should be reported in square feet. Impacts 0.01 acre or greater should be reported as acres and rounded to the
nearest 0.01 acre. Tributary impacts must be reported in linear feet of impact and an area of impact by indicating first the linear feet of impact
along the flowline of the stream followed by the area impact in parentheses). For example, a project that impacts 50 feet of a stream that is 6
feet wide would be reported as 50 ft (300 square feet).
3This is generally only applicable if you are applying for a de minimis exemption under MN Rules 8420.0420 Subp. 8, otherwise enter “N/A”.
4Use Wetland Plants and Plant Community Types of Minnesota and Wisconsin 3rd Ed. as modified in MN Rules 8420.0405 Subp. 2.
5Refer to Major Watershed and Bank Service Area maps in MN Rules 8420.0522 Subp. 7.
If any of the above identified impacts have already occurred, identify which impacts they are and the circumstances associated
with each:
PART FIVE: Applicant Signature
Check here if you are requesting a pre-application consultation with the Corps and LGU based on the information you have

indicate whether or not those activities may require mitigation/replacement.
Project Name and/or Number:
Attachment A
Request for Delineation Review, Wetland Type Determination, or
Jurisdictional Determination
By submission of the enclosed wetland delineation report, I am requesting that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, St. Paul District
(Corps) and/or the Wetland Conservation Act Local Government Unit (LGU) provide me with the following (check all that apply):
Wetland Type Confirmation
Delineation Concurrence. Concurrence with a delineation is a written notification from the Corps and a decision from the LGU
concurring, not concurring, or commenting on the boundaries of the aqu atic resources delineated on the property. Delineation
concurrences are generally valid for five years unless site conditions change. Under this request alone, the Corps will not a ddress
the jurisdictional status of the aquatic resources on the property, only the boundaries of the resources within the review area
(including wetlands, tributaries, lakes, etc.).
Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination. A preliminary jurisdictional determination (PJD) is a non-binding written indication
from the Corps that waters, including wetlands, identified on a parcel may be waters of the United States. For purposes of
computation of impacts and compensatory mitigation requirements, a permit decision made on the basis of a PJD will treat all
waters and wetlands in the review area as if they are jurisdictional waters o f the U.S. PJDs are advisory in nature and may not be
appealed.
Approved Jurisdictional Determination. An approved jurisdictional determination (AJD) is an official Corps determination that
jurisdictional waters of the United States are either present or absent on the property. AJDs can generally be relied upon by the
affected party for five years. An AJD may be appealed through the Corps administrative appeal process.
