Eco-Resource Consulting, LLC <br /> 409 Concord Drive <br /> Oregon, WI 53575 <br /> April 8, 2005 <br /> Mr. Daryl Wierzbinski <br /> 1617 E. Racine Avenue, Room 101 <br /> Waukesha, WI 53186 <br /> RE: Wetland Delineation of a One Acre Parcel located in the <br /> SE 1/4 of the SE of Section 24, T5N, R11E, Dane County <br /> Mr. Wierzbinski, <br /> At the request of Ms, Dee Heitz, Eco-Resource Consulting, LLC, (ERC) <br /> conducted a wetland determination/delineation of jurisdictional wetlands on a <br /> one-acre portion of the Heitz parent parcel, The parcel is located in a portion of <br /> the SE 1/4 of the SE '/4 of Section 24, T5N, R11 E, Dunkirk Township, Dane <br /> County, Wisconsin. The wetland delineation was performed on April 4, 2005 by <br /> Stephen Hjort of ERC using methodologies included in the 1987 U.S. Army <br /> Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual, (Form 1 Field Forms enclosed). <br /> The wetland is characterized as an emergent wet meadow with portions of the <br /> transition zone containing shrub/carr species, Combs & Associates, inc. <br /> performed a location of-the wetland flagging and test pit locations. The wetland <br /> delineation line is included on the attached survey figure. <br /> The wetland area surrounding the pond is characterized as an emergent wet <br /> meadow with a shrub/carr transition zone. The wetland area is dominated by <br /> narrow-leaved cattail (Tvoha anqustifolia) and reed canary grass (Phalaris <br /> arundinacea). Soils at the location were characterized and found to be <br /> consistent with a Salter sandy loam, as mapped for the location in the Dane <br /> County Soil Survey. Salter soils are not listed on Federal or State Hydric Soils <br /> Lists but the wet variant form of this series qualifies as a hydric soil under the <br /> 1987 Corps Manual, Field observations of hydrology revealed saturated soils <br /> within 12 inches of the surface and given the spring thaw conditions, it is <br /> expected that wetland hydrology (saturated within 12 inches of the soil surface) <br /> would be the normal circumstance, Redoximorphic concentrations and <br /> depletions were observed within the upper 12 inches of the soil profile, <br /> —The upland area is dominated by common lawn grasses including Kentucky blue <br /> grass (Ea pratensis). Soils at the location were characterized and found to be <br /> consistent with a Salter silt loam as mapped for the location in the Dane County <br /> Soil Survey. No redox concentrations or depletions were observed within 20 <br />
