This letter report summarizes the findings of an April 7,1989 wetland assessment of <br />approximately 0.7 acres of property at the north end of site. This report is an addendum <br />to the report completed for the southern portion of the site. At the time of the earlier <br />1.� assessment, this northern 0.7 acres was not part of the proposed development and was not <br />_ _ 1 evaluated for wetland resources. <br />METHODOLOGY <br />The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service definition of wetlands was used to determine the <br />presence of wetland on the site. The definition is based on the predominance of plants <br />adapted for life in saturated soil conditions. The wetland edge is delineated at the zone <br />where the predominance of wetland vegetation is replaced by a predominance of upland <br />vegetation. In addition, a hand auger was used to check soils for hydric characteristics such <br />as presence of organic matter and indications of a high water table. Indications of wetland <br />hydrology such as surface ponding during the growing season, high groundwater levels and <br />seeps were also noted. <br />� 4 RESULTS <br />The eastern portion of the site contains a well established palustrine forested <br />wetland. The canopy is dominated by Red Alder (Alntls Lora) and Black Cottonwood <br />(Pou� trichocarpa) with an understory of Salmonberry (R lhus Soectabilis) and Vine <br />Maple (Acer -r�ircinatum). Ground flora consists of Wild Lily of Valley (Maianthemum <br />uniflorum), Bleeding Heart (Dicen ra jc(identalis), and Miterwort (Mitella ovalis). All of <br />
