Apca, Juco F6 B1, B10, D2 PFO1/PEM1Y point CC-1 has matrix chroma colors and mottling sufficient to qualify as a redox dark surface. Wetland hydrology indicators included saturation, drainage pattern, and geomorphic position. (This borrow ditch was classed as non -jurisdictional by the Corps as a result of a previous mapping effort.) W-2: Depression (PEM1 Y; Photo 2) Sample point CC-5 was selected to characterize a group of small herbaceous wetlands located along the eastern project area border. The vegetation community is dominated by Baltic rush with upland plant species making up a small percentage of the absolute cover. The matrix and mottle content of the matrix to a depth of 18 inches qualifies for a redox dark surface classification. Wetland hydrology indicators include a suitable drainage pattern and geomorphic position. Given the depression form, a shallow depth to a high water table is assumed based on the NRCS soils mapping. W-3: Shallow drainage (PFO1/PEMY1; Photo 3) This wetland has become established in a narrow, comparatively short and shallow drainage along the eastern project area border. Wetland W-3 is characterized by dominant species in the herbaceous, shrub, and tree strata and is classed as PFO/PEM1Y to account for this diversity (sample point CC-7). The dominant species are plains cottonwood (Populus deltoides — FAC), dogbane, and round -fruit rush (Juncus cornpressus— FACW). A redox dark surface wetland indicator was noted for the soil matrix and wetland hydrology indicators included water marks, drainage patterns, and a geomorphic position. I trust this letter report will fulfill your needs with respect to wetland and other Waters of the U. S. delineation requirements. We request that you evaluate our delineation report with a view to considering it accurate and complete. Please call (970-229-9278) if you have any questions regarding the delineation work completed for this project. Sincerely, CEDAR CRr- ,, ASSOCIA,TES,INC. Stephen G. Long Principal 3 included the presence of a histic epipedon, thick dark surface, redox features, gleying, depleted or reduced profile conditions, and high organic matter content and/or a stripped matrix in sandy soils. Potential wetland hydrology indicators included geomorphic position, presence of standing water and/or saturated soil profile conditions, drainage patterns, sediment deposits, water marks, and oxidized root channels in the upper 12 inches of the soil profile. Sample holes were dug to a depth of 16 inches unless a restrictive layer was encountered. Formal field data sheets were completed for each sample point evaluated (CC-1 through CC-7). Wetland / upland boundaries and sample points were flagged with pink fluorescent tape and numbered orange pin flags tied with pink fluorescent tape, respectively, for subsequent surveying work. No open water features were encountered Adjunct test holes were also dug, where appropriate, to gain additional vegetation, soil, and hydrologic information used to aid in the characterization of wetlands, uplands, and transition zones. Data sheets were not completed for test holes. The wetland delineation wetland/upland borders and sample pit sites were surveyed in on February 18, 2014, The results of the field delineation are summarized in the following paragraphs. Copies of the data sheets completed during the survey along with a delineation map and photos are included with this report to aid the Corps in completing an evaluation of this project site. Tables T-1 and T-2 are presented to support the report text. Proiect Area Characteristics Results - Uplands and Upland Transition Sites The project area was once a farmstead. At this time, the buildings have been removed and the fields have reverted primarily to a mixture of localized upland vegetation communities occurring across a nearly level topography with a few shallow, dry, drainage inclusions. A prairie dog colony occurs over a significant portion of the project area. Herbaceous shrub, and tree species have become established on site and are variably dominant depending upon the vegetation community under consideration. Native, introduced, and weedy species are represented. Dominant and other notable species include cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum - UPL), western wheatgrass (Pascopyrum smithii - FACU), slender wheatgrass - Elymus trachycaulus - FACU) smooth brome (Bromopsis inermis - UPL), tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea - FACU), kochia (Bassia sieversiana - FACU). alfalfa (Medicago sativa - UPL), Siberian elm (Ulmus pumila - UPL). Sample point CC-2 (paired with CC-1) and CC-6 (paired with CC-7) were selected to characterize upland wetland borders. Dominant species included western wheatgrass and smooth brome. No wetland soil or hydrology indicators were observed. Two upland transition sites were also mapped and described in the project area indicating, along with the wetland descriptions below, a project site that is believed to be drying. Sample point CC-3 is dominated by marsh elder (Cyclathaena xanthiifolia - FAC) and kochia while sample point CC-4 is dominated by Baltic rush (Juncus balticus - FACW). While hydric-classed species are dominant, all or in part at these sample points, no evidence of wetland soils or hydrology was observed. Therefore, these vegetation communities are considered to be upland transition sites. Results - Vegetated Wetlands Three types of wetlands, W-1, W-2, and W-3, were delineated within the project area boundaries and are characterized below. It may be noted that while hydric soils were present at the sample points selected to describe these wetlands, the wetland indicators for wetland types W-2 and W-3 were weak indicating a drying trend across this project site. W-1: Borrow Ditch (PEM1B; Photo P-1) This wetland is typified by a vegetation community dominated by cattails (Tyla latifolia - OBL, dogbane (Apocynum cannabinum- FAC), and Emory sedge (Carex emoryi - OBL).

S. Delineation for the Capstone Cottages Project (No Corps Number Assigned to Date) Dear Mr. McKee: At the direction of Capstone Collegiate Communities, Cedar Creek Associates, Inc. completed a wetland and Other Waters of the U. S. delineation for the Capstone Cottages Project within the city limits of Fort Collins, Colorado. The project area is situated along Lincoln Avenue in Section 7, Township 7 North, Range 68 West (N 40.58982, W.-105.05337, NAD 83). The primary objective of this work is to develop the project area to provide campus housing opportunities for students. The objective of the delineation work is to fulfill the requirements of Section 404 of the Clean Water Act regarding the delineation of wetlands and other Waters of the U. S. prior to potential development activities. The vicinity map included with this submittal depicts the road network providing access to the site.

Wetland delineation and sampling work for the wetlands and open water features within the project area was completed on August 23, 2013 using the methods and techniques specified for "routine on -site delineations" in the publication Corps of Engineers Wetlands Delineation Manual (Department of the Army 1987), supplemented by the document Regional Supplement to the Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual. Great Plains Region - Version 2.0 (Department of the Army 2010). The project area was evaluated and potential wetland, transition zone, and upland vegetation communities were identified. Using the three -parameter approach, via test hole characteristics, the wetland/upland boundaries were flagged. Formal sample point locations were then identified. Sample point locations were selected to represent typical wetland, upland and transitional conditions on site. At each sample point, percent total cover of dominant plant species was estimated. Species were then classed as OBL (obligate wetland species), FACW (facultative wetland species), FAC (facultative species), FACU (facultative upland species) or UPL (upland species).
