ASSURED WETLAND DELINEATION REPORT 2944 Hope Road Wetland Delineation INTRODUCTION December 2015 1.0 INTRODUCTION Stantec Consulting Services Inc. (Stantec) performed a wetland determination and delineation of the 2944 Hope Road property (the "Study Area") on behalf of Snyder Excavation & Paving, LLC. The wetland delineation was completed by Jeff Kraemer of Stantec, an assured delineator qualified via the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources Wetland Delineation Assurance Program, on September 24, 2015 (see Appendix G for Delineator Qualifications). The Study Area is approximately 2.72 acres in size and located in Section 30,Township 7 North, Range 11 East,Town of Cottage Grove, Dane County, Wisconsin. Specifically, the Study Area is located where Hope Road crosses Door Creek, east of the intersection of Hope Road and Femrite Drive. The purpose and objective of the wetland determination and delineation was to identify the extent and spatial arrangement of wetlands within the Study Area. One wetland area was identified within the Study Area. Wetlands and waterways that are considered waters of the U.S.are subject to regulation under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (CWA) and the jurisdictional regulatory authority lies with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). Additionally, the WDNR has regulatory authority over wetlands, navigable waters, and adjacent lands under Chapters 30 and 281 Wisconsin State Statutes,and Wisconsin Administrative Codes NR 103,299, 350 and 353. Finally counties, townships and municipalities may have local zoning authority over certain types of wetlands and waterways. Stantec recommends this report be submitted to local authorities, the WDNR and USACE for final jurisdictional review and concurrence. Delineations completed by a WDNR Assured Delineator do not need to obtain WDNR concurrence. Stantec 1.1
