1. PURPOSE AND INTRODUCTION

Woodland Design Associates, Inc. was retained by Honesdale Borough to delineate wetlands at the proposed site identified as Honesdale Borough North Main Trail Development Project.

The purpose of this study was to map wetland areas based on the “U.S. ARMY CORPS OF ENGINEERS WETLAND DELINEATION MANUAL, TECHNICAL REPORT Y-87-1” which includes regional supplements: NORTHCENTRAL AND NORTHEAST REGION. This report represents the findings of this investigation. The method for identification and delineation of wetlands on this project was the Routine On-Site Determination.

2. SITE LOCATION

This site is in Honesdale Borough, Wayne County, Pennsylvania. It is located along the Lackawaxen River. FIGURE 1 is a location map showing the site. FIGURE 2 shows the subdivision map for this area.

The size of the project site is approximately 0.46 acres.

3. PRELIMINARY INFORMATION SOURCES

TOPOGRAPHY

This site is located on the Honesdale, PA Quadrangle, which is shown in FIGURE 3. The site is below the 990-foot contour interval and drains into the Lackawaxen River.

SOILS

Figure 4 shows the soil survey map (Wayne County GIS Mapping) with the site marked. The soil survey indicated that one (1) soil would be found on the site. Below is the description for this soil:

Ba- Barbour Loam This soil series is nearly level and well-drained on alluvial flood plains that are higher than the normal level of flooding. The surface layer is very dark grayish brown loam about 6 inches thick. The subsoil is dark brown loam and gravelly loam about 22 inches thick. The substratum, to a depth of 60 inches, is dark reddish brown very gravelly loamy sand.

Permeability is moderately rapid and rapid, and the available water capacity is moderate.

Runoff is slow.

NATIONAL WETLAND INVENTORY MAP

The National Wetland Inventory Map (FIGURE 5) indicates that the project site is not within a National Wetland Inventory habitat.

4. SITE INVESTIGATION

The site was visited on May 7th, 2026. The wetland delineators were Jayson M. Wood, Registered Landscape Architect, and Alex Kammeier, Environmental Planner. The weather was sunny and approximately 52 degrees. It had rained in the previous 48 hours in that area.

Two soil borings were taken on this property. The boring location is shown on the attached plan (FIGURE 6). Vegetation, soils, and hydrology were observed and recorded on the following Field Data Sheet for this boring. Photographs were also taken of the property and are located on

FIGURE 7. The location and direction of the photographs are shown on the attached plan

(FIGURE 6).

5. FINDINGS AND SUMMARY

There were no wetlands or waters found on site. The U.S. Army Corp of Engineers has the final determination as to the jurisdiction of wetlands and Waters of the U.S. The Corps can provide, if requested, a jurisdictional determination with regards to this property if you should so desire. A Jurisdictional Determination Request Form is available either through this firm or through the Corp District office.

The limit of professional liability for this project shall be limited to an amount equal to the fee paid for all work performed by Woodland Design Associates, Inc.

6. CERTIFICATION

I certify that the above statements, and attachments, including those labeled and identified as FIGURES 1 through 7, and all conclusions are true, correct, and based upon current environmental principles and science, to the best of my knowledge and belief.
