Hi Kevin, I evaluated the Mt. Pleasant High School site yesterday. There were several potential wetland areas (I'm sure
this was all floodplain wetlands before the area was farmed) but luckily, only a couple of areas that actually need to be
added to the map. These are described below, illustrated on the attached map, and flagged in the field with pink
WETLAND DELINEATION flagging.
Adams Creek. This is a perennial stream and has already been flagged and surveyed.
Unnamed Tributary (Perennial). This stream flows south along the western property boundary to it's confluence with
Adams Creek. I did not flag this in the field because of the extensive length and because the top of bank is clear and
obvious.
Stream A (Intermittent). This small intermittent stream is jurisdictional and located within the woodline along the western
portion of the site. It only flows for about 40 feet to it's confluence with the Unnamed Tributary (above). It is fed by a
series of non -jurisdictional ditches from on -site livestock pasture.
Wetland AA. This wetland is located at the southern portion of the property immediately adjacent to the small field located
along Adams Creek and just below the football stadium. The wetland is located between the field and against the toe of
slope of a recent pile of fill (new access road?). It if fed by Stream C (Intermittent), which is a small 2-foot wide channel
that comes from a pipe under the adjacent road. Wetland AA is drained by Stream B (intermittent), which empties into
Adams Creek.
Please pass along the attached field sketch map to your surveyor. Wetland AA is located adjacent to the practice field
below the stadium. I flagged it but I strongly suggest getting the surveyor out there ASAP because the flags will likely be
pulled down as the field is used and maintained. All 3 intermittent streams are small but jurisdictional. They are all very
short streams, each only flowing for approximately 40-60-feet. On the flagging, I indicated the centerline width (CL) of
each stream, which can be used for mapping purposes. I can be available to meet with the surveyor if necessary.
Since Adams Creek was surveyed, it makes sense to me that all streams be surveyed. I think the requirements you sent
me state that "wetlands" be depicted, but I'm not sure if this is also inclusive of jurisdictional streams. I can take a look at
the requirements if you need me to figure out the minimum mapping requirements. Hope all this makes sense. Let me
know if you have questions or need anything else.
Isaac
