Wetland Delineation � Maierle
1 Introduction
Morrison-Maierle, Inc. (Morrison-Maierle) completed a wetland delineation for the Norton East
project located in Bozeman, Montana. This technical memo summarizes the findings of the
wetland investigation.
The project area consisted of 42 acres of land located north of West Babcock Street in Gallatin
County, Montana. Appendix A includes figures of the project area location.
2 Methods
The wetland investigation utilized the methodology presented in the 1987 U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers (USACE) Wetlands Delineation Manual (Environmental Laboratory 1987) and
subsequent modifications outlined in the Regional Supplement to the Corps of Engineers Wetland
Delineation Manual: Western Mountains, Valleys, and Coast (Version 2.0) (Environmental
Laboratory 2010).
Upland data points (UDP) and wetland data points (WDP)were established as needed during the
field visit. Sample data points were labeled with an UDP or WDP, followed by the number
associated with the data point, (e.g. noted here in bold (UDP 1)to correspond to the sample points
for that location. Data for vegetation, hydrology, and soils were recorded in the field and entered
on Wetland Determination Data Forms located in Appendix B. Photographs of sample points are
provided in Appendix C.
Sample points and wetland boundaries (if present) were recorded using a handheld Global
Positioning System (GPS) unit and post-processed to sub-meter accuracy. Locations were then
converted to shapefiles and uploaded into ArcMap 10.7.1 for display on figures included in
Appendix A.
2.1 Vegetation
Vegetation at upland and wetland data points was classified based on wetland indicator status.
The indicator status of vegetation was derived from the 2018 National Wetland Plant List(USACE
2018). Using the current plant list, vegetation cover qualified as hydrophytic where over 50% of
the dominant plant species had an indicator status of obligate (OBL), facultative wet (FACW),
and/or facultative (FAC). FAC plants, such as Canada thistle (Cirsium arvense), are equally likely
to occur in wetlands and non-wetlands. Vegetation cover was considered as upland where over
50% of the dominant plant species were classified as upland (UPL), and/or facultative upland
(FACU). Plants observed within each data plot were identified using Montana Manual of Vascular
Plants (Lesica 2012).
2.2 Soil
Wetlands must meet the qualifications of at least one hydric soil indicator, or meet the definition
of a hydric soil (a soil that formed under conditions of saturation, flooding or ponding long enough
during the growing season to develop anaerobic conditions in the upper part (NRCS 2019a)).
Soils at each data point were evaluated and described notating the depth, matrix color, mottle
abundance and contrast (if present), texture, etc. (Environmental Laboratory, 1987 and 2010).

Wetland Delineation � Maierle
Moist matrix color and moist mottle color of the soils were determined utilizing the Munsell Soil
Color Chart (Kollmorgan Instruments Corporation, 2009).
2.3 Hydrology
Primary and secondary hydrologic indicators were assessed at each wetland and upland data
point; one primary indicator or two secondary indicators are required to qualify the area as
containing wetland hydrology. Examples of primary hydrologic indicators are saturation within 12
inches of the ground surface, surface water, and water table within 12 inches of the ground
surface. Examples of secondary hydrologic indicators are FAC-neutral test and geomorphic
position on the landscape.
3 Results
A wetland delineation of the project area was performed by a Morrison-Maierle environmental
scientist on May 25, 2021. The vegetation, hydrology, and soil characteristics at each of nine data
points were documented in the field and recorded on Wetland Determination Data Forms for the
Western Mountains, Valleys, and Coast(Supplement, 2010).
3.1 Vegetation
Vegetation communities were evaluated and documented to delineate wetland and upland
boundaries. The upland herbaceous areas within the project consisted of reed canary grass
(Phalaris arundinacea, FACW), wood's rose (Rosa woodsia, FACU), and American licorice
(Glycyrrhiza lepidota, FAC).
The wetlands within the project area were dominated by reed canary grass and cattail (Typha
latifolia, OBL). The location of all data points is identified on Figure 5 of Appendix A.
3.2 Soil
Mapped soil types within the project area were obtained from the Web Soil Survey(NRCS 2021 b).
According to the Web Soil Survey, five soil types are located within the project area:
• Hyalite-Beaverton complex, moderately wet, 0 to 2 percent slopes (448A)
• Enbar loam, 0 to 4 percent slopes (509B)
• Meadowcreek loam, 0 to 4 percent slopes (510B)
• Lamoose silt loam, 0 to 2 percent slopes (537A)
• Hyalite-Beaverton complex, 0 to 4 percent slopes (748A)
Soils were analyzed in the field for texture and color using the Munsell Soil Color Charts (Munsell
2009). The upland soils exhibited a 10YR 2/1 silty clay down to approximately 12 inches. Soil in
the wetland areas also exhibited a 10YR 2/1 silty clay down to approximately 12 inches and the
hydric soil indicator is loamy mucky mineral (F1). It was noted that there was not much difference
between the soils in the upland and wetland areas. This field has gone though several changes
over the years including draining, farming, excavation, and fill.

3.3 Hydrology
3.3.1 Topography
The project area lies within the Bozeman, Montana (2020), U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) 7.5-
minute Topographic Map. The project area lies at approximately 4,800 feet above sea level
(Appendix A, Figure 1). A perennial stream, Baxter Creek, is shown to intersect the project area.
3.3.2 National Wetland Inventory
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) maintains the National Wetlands Inventory (NWI),
which serves as a publicly available resource that provides detailed information on the
abundance, characteristics, and distribution of US Wetlands. According to the NWI database,
several freshwater emergent wetland (PEM1A and PEM1C) features are present within the
investigation area (USFWS 2021). Appendix A, Figure 4 depicts the NWI features in the project
vicinity.
3.3.3 Floodplains and On-Site Hydrology
The project area is located within Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) FIRM Panel
30031 C0811 D with an effective date of September 2, 2011 (FEMA 2021). The floodplain data for
this area is not printed and cannot be viewed.
The project area consists of several wetland areas with similar hydrology indicator. These include
geomorphic position, standing water, and shallow water table. Upland areas did not exhibit any
hydrology indicators.
4 Conclusion
The western half of the subject property contained 4 seemingly isolated wetlands, which included
a stormwater pond. The eastern half of the subject property contained remnants of an unused
irrigation ditch and the OHWM of Baxter Creek. Baxter Creek also maintained a wetland fringe.
In total the following resources were delineated on the subject property:
Feature Size
Wetlands 6.76 acres
Baxter Creek 780 linear feet
Remnant irri ation ditch 1,166 linear feet
Borrow it ond 1.54 acres
Based on the results of the wetland delineation performed according to USACE guidelines, it is
Morrison-Maierle's professional judgement that portions of the project area meet the technical
criteria to be classified as wetlands and waterways. The USACE is the final authority over Waters
of the U.S., and a jurisdictional determination would need to be submitted to the USACE for review
to make that determination.
