The wetland data forms completed for each wetland are provided as an attachment. According to the Soil Survey of the Larimer County Area, soil present at the site is classified as Nunn clay .loam, 1 to 3 percent slopes (SCS 1980). This soil is not classified as a hydric soil. However, inclusions of hydric soils may occur within this mapping unit. Wetland 1 is a palustrine, forested wetland that occurs immediately adjacent to an irrigation ditch (Figure 3-1). This wetland covers approximately 0.03 acre and receives water that overflows from the adjacent irrigation ditch. Vegetation, hydrology, and soils data were collected at one site along the periphery of the wetland (see attachment). Vegetation observed in this wetland includes a prevalence of hydrophytic species, such as watercress, curly dock, and pondweed. Other species that occur in this wetland include hybrid cottonwood, Canada thistle, and bedstraw. Hydrological indicators present at the wetland include inundation, saturated soils, and sediment deposits on vegetation. Indicators of hydric soils that were observed at the site Include low chroma colors and mottles within the B horizon. Wetland 2 is a palustrine, emergent wetland that occurs in the northern portion of the site (Figure 3-1). This wetland covers approximately 3.90 acres and receives water via underground water flow from the adjacent Larimer and Weld water canal. Vegetation, hydrology, and soils data were collected for three sites along the periphery of the wetland (see attachment). Vegetation observed in this wetland includes a prevalence of hydrophytic species, such as wideleaf cattail, narrowleaf cattail, Nebraska sedge, American three -square, curly dock, common spikerush, Baltic rush, reed canarygrass, and pondweed. Other species that occur in this wetland include Kentucky bluegrass, smooth bromegrass, and Canada thistle. Hydrological indicators present at the wetland include inundation, saturated soils, and oxidized root channels. Indicators of hydric soils that were observed at the wetland include low chroma colors and mottles within the B horizon. Wetland 3 is a palustrine, emergent wetland that occurs in the southeastern portion of the site (Figure 3-1). This wetland covers approximately 2.81 acres and receives water via underground water flow from the adjacent Larimer and Weld water canal. Vegetation, hydrology, and soils data were collected at three sites along the periphery of the wetland (see attachment). Vegetation observed in this wetland includes a prevalence of hydrophytic species, such as Nebraska sedge, American three -square, curly dock, common spikerush, and Baltic rush. Other hydrophytes that were observed in other portions of the wetland include wideleaf cattail, 8711-043-100 3-1 Juty 1994 DATA FORM ROUTINE WETLAND DETERMINATION 11987 COE Wetlands Delineation Manual) M 3 Si c Project/Site: SnUa'i M Applicant/Owner: Mm04Vi Investigator: S ris Normal Circumstances exist on the site? he site significantly disturbed (Atypical Situation)? he area a potential Problem Area?

Soil Survey of Larlmer County Area, Colorado. 174 pp. 8711-043-100 5-1.1 July 1994 EM 4.0 CONCLUSIONS Three wetlands were delineated at the proposed development site. These wetlands cover approximately 6.74 acres or approximately 29 percent of the site. A development design for this site has not been completed. Therefore, the acres of wetlands to be filled during construction, If any, cannot be calculated until the final development design has been completed. 9711-043-100 4-1 July 1994 r ATTACHMENT IN narrowleaf cattail, and reed canarygrass. Upland species that occur In this wetland Include Kentucky bluegrass, common milkweed, quackgrass, and Canada thistle. Hydrological Indicators present at the wetland include inundation, saturated soils, and oxidized root channels. Indicators of hydric soils that were observed at the wetland include low chroma colors and mottles within the B horizon. 8711.043-100 3-2 July 1994 c tr ENM 2.0 METHODS Prior to field delineation of wetlands, the Larimer County Soil Survey and the Fort Collins-USGS 7.5-minute topographic quadrangle were reviewed. The methodology used during the wetland delineation was completed in accordance with the methodology described in the 1987 COE Wetland Delineation Manual. Vegetation, soils, and hydrologic characteristics were evaluated and recorded during the wetland delineation. Wetland data forms were completed during field activities. These forms provide basic information regarding soils, vegetation, and hydrology that are Important parameters in the determination of wetlands. Wetland boundaries were flagged (pin flags) in the field. The wetland boundaries were subsequently surveyed and illustrated on a survey map. 8711-043.100 2-1 July 1994 �C'•'F \ l.. � r Pal r 1 _ '�,-yl '• o✓oP4' ia::-=`:.1i• > r� � •' <� ,•:, S� to �,•1.1.

The delineation was conducted on June 7, 1994, at a 23-acre site (T 8N, R 69W, Sec. 36, SW 1 /4 of SW 1 /4; latitude 40 degrees 46' 40", longitude 105 degrees 04' 15"). The site currently consists of old pastureland and wetlands that are bounded by the Larimer and Weld water canal to the north, an Irrigation ditch and U.S. Highway 287 to the west, Willox Road to the south, and private property to the east. Some of the uplands located at the site have been previously disturbed by housing development and dumping of fill dirt and other debris. The objective of the field investigation was to delineate wetlands at the proposed development site so that Smith Investments, Inc., could consider this information during the design phase of the proposed development and to notify the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (COE) of the wetlands present at the site. 8711-043-100 1-1 Jury 1994 t EN9t LIST OF FIGURES 1-1 Locations of 3 Delineated Wetlands .................................. 1-2 3-1 Delineated Wetlands Located at the Proposed Development Site for Smith Investments, Inc ................................................. 3-3 9711-043-100 III July 1994 .r EM CONTENTS 1.0 INTRODUCTION ................................................. 1-1 2.0 METHODS ...................................................... 2-1 3.0 RESULTS ...................................................... 3-1 4.0 CONCLUSIONS .................................................. 4-1 5.0 REFERENCES ................................................... 5-1 8711.043-100 II July 1994 8711-043-100 WETLAND DELINEATION REPORT FOR THE SMITH INVESTMENTS, INC., DEVELOPMENT PROJECT Prepared for U.S. ARMY CORPS OF ENGINEERS Littleton, Colorado Prepared by ENSR CONSULTING AND ENGINEERING Fort Collins, Colorado July 1994
