12-Mile Wetland Summary
Wetland Investigation Summary
Hazen investigators conducted a preliminary desktop assessment of available maps and geographic
information systems (GIS) shapefiles to determine the potential presence of jurisdictional wetlands and
deepwater habitats in the vicinity of the project. Hazen investigators then conducted a field investigation
that included identification, classification and delineation of waters of the U.S. present within the
proposed limits of disturbance. One jurisdictional stream (Twelvemile Creek) was present within the
limits of disturbance. No wetlands were present within the limits of disturbance.
