Notes:
Stream S10 is an intermittent channel in a wide floodplain network with multiple
streams braiding out. Hydrology is likely modified (natural or artificial) and flows
through the adjacent stream. Water is pooled throughout the stream and iron
oxidizing bacteria is thick in the channel.

Wetland W11 is a floodplain to a tributary of Walnut Creek. The wetland is bounded by a distinct break in
topography. The low-lying areas are seasonally inundated. W11 is separated from W12 by a walkway that
dissects the wetland system. NOAA/NWS recorded 0.53" of rainfall 48 hours prior to the field evaluation.

The floodplain is likely seasonally inundated. Flooding flows from the adjacent, offsite creek and
sustains the wetland's hydrology.

however, a water table was not found within 14 inches of the soil surface.

Is the Sampled Area
Wetland W14 is a seep wetland crossing a sanitary sewer easement and draining into the larger floodplain associated with Walnut Creek. W14 is
bounded by topography on two sides and hydrology is impounded by the sewer line.
