I was at a meeting in Green Bay with the WDNR and just returned. I will be there on Friday <br /> (prediction is 35 degrees outside) and will have the data to you by the end of that day or early next week. <br /> Merry Christmas. <br /> Jim Knowles <br /> From: Lane, Roger[mailto:lane.roger @co.dane.wi.us] <br /> Sent: Monday, December 22, 2008 2:55 PM <br /> To: Jim Knowles <br /> Subject: RE: Wetland Site Review <br /> If you can do the determination now, please do so. Dane County Zoning will accept your determination. <br /> Roger <br /> Original Message <br /> From: Jim Knowles [mailto:james.knowles @jdknowles.com] <br /> Sent: Monday, December 22, 2008 2:51 PM <br /> To: Lane, Roger; 'Peterson, Cami L - DNR' <br /> Cc: Schutte, Kristine; Steinhauer, Charles; Everson, Daniel; Eric.Heggelund @Wisconsin.gov; 'Gene Harbort' <br /> Subject: RE: Wetland Site Review <br /> Good Afternoon, <br /> I understand the issue and do agree that doing wetland delineations in the winter is problematic at best. <br /> The main issue there is whether or not soils are at or below 28 degrees; biological activity stops at that <br /> point. Without going into too much science and policy, I will mention that the growing season discussed in <br /> the 87 Manual is based upon agricultural - annual - crops that are susceptible to damage after the first <br /> major frost. So, growing season is based upon annual plants and not perennial plants. Many perennial <br /> plants continue to grow if the ground is not frozen and they are able to get plenty of sunlight. For <br /> example, red osier dogwood shrubs can continue to grow throughout the winter season as long the <br /> ground is absent frost within the plant's root zone. The 87 Manual does recognize that ground <br /> temperature should be measured this time of year. Never-the-less, NR 310 does contain language that <br /> 1/28/2009 <br />
