Coordinate System: Web Mercator (EPSG:3857)

Maps from the Web Soil Survey are based on the Web Mercator projection, which preserves direction and shape but distorts distance and area. A projection that preserves area, such as the Albers equal-area conic projection, should be used if more accurate calculations of distance or area are required.

This product is generated from the USDA-NRCS certified data as of the version date(s) listed below.

Hydric Rating by Map Unit—Marion County, Ohio Potential Max Boundary

Description

This rating indicates the percentage of map units that meets the criteria for hydric soils. Map units are composed of one or more map unit components or soil types, each of which is rated as hydric soil or not hydric. Map units that are made up dominantly of hydric soils may have small areas of minor nonhydric components in the higher positions on the landform, and map units that are made up dominantly of nonhydric soils may have small areas of minor hydric components in the lower positions on the landform. Each map unit is rated based on its respective components and the percentage of each component within the map unit.

The thematic map is color coded based on the composition of hydric components. The five color classes are separated as 100 percent hydric components, 66 to 99 percent hydric components, 33 to 65 percent hydric components, 1 to 32 percent hydric components, and less than one percent hydric components.

In Web Soil Survey, the Summary by Map Unit table that is displayed below the map pane contains a column named 'Rating'. In this column the percentage of each map unit that is classified as hydric is displayed.

Hydric soils are defined by the National Technical Committee for Hydric Soils (NTCHS) as soils that formed under conditions of saturation, flooding, or ponding long enough during the growing season to develop anaerobic conditions in the upper part (Federal Register, 1994). Under natural conditions, these soils are either saturated or inundated long enough during the growing season to support the growth and reproduction of hydrophytic vegetation.

The NTCHS definition identifies general soil properties that are associated with wetness. In order to determine whether a specific soil is a hydric soil or nonhydric soil, however, more specific information, such as information about the depth and duration of the water table, is needed. Thus, criteria that identify those estimated soil properties unique to hydric soils have been established (Federal Register, 2002). These criteria are used to identify map unit components that normally are associated with wetlands. The criteria used are selected estimated soil properties that are described in "Soil Taxonomy" (Soil Survey Staff, 1999) and "Keys to Soil Taxonomy" (Soil Survey Staff, 2006) and in the "Soil Survey Manual" (Soil Survey Division Staff, 1993).

If soils are wet enough for a long enough period of time to be considered hydric, they should exhibit certain properties that can be easily observed in the field.

These visible properties are indicators of hydric soils. The indicators used to make onsite determinations of hydric soils are specified in "Field Indicators of Hydric Soils in the United States" (Hurt and Vasilas, 2006).

WRE LAND ELIGIBILITY DETERMINATION FORM

COUNTY STATE LANDOWNER Application Acres

Land eligibility is determined during onsite field reviews by NRCS and an appropriate interdisciplinary team of partner specialists, including FWS. The landowner should be invited to participate in these field reviews. It is recommended that the field reviews be completed only after all requirements outlined in section 528.103 of the ACEP Manual have been completed to the satisfaction of NRCS. Section 528.105 of the ACEP Manual provides direction on determining Land Eligibility.

528.105A(4) The easement case file must contain documentation that identifies which portions of the offered area meets which technical land eligibility criteria. If lands meeting the "other eligible lands" criteria are included in the easement area, the case file must document the basis for the inclusion of those lands along with any applicable waivers.

528.105B(i) During the onsite field reviews of the offered acres, NRCS will—

(i) Determine if the land meets one or more of the eligible land type requirements to be eligible for enrollment as listed in the ACEP-WRE policy section 528.105C through 528.105I.

Based on the eligibility requirements described for each section, enter the eligible acres in the table below.

Eligible Land Types Acres C.2.i Farmed or Converted Wetlands (Attach supporting documentation for prior converted or farmed wetland designation e.g. Certified Wetland Determination, WebSoil Survey Hydric Soils Map as specified under section 528.105C (2i)) C.2.ii Former or Degraded Wetlands (Attach supporting documentation from site inspection and provide method of restoring Former or Degraded Wetland as specified under section 528.105C (2ii)) C.2.iii Lands Substantially Altered by Flooding (Attach supporting documentation detailing flood altering conditions as specified under section 528.105C (2iii))

(iii) Complete preliminary planning activities sufficient to develop cost estimates for eligibility and ranking purposes and to ensure that restoration activities are feasible.

(iv) Complete the “Hazardous Materials Field Inspection Checklist” and “Hazardous Materials Landowner Interview” to determine if there are unacceptable offsite or onsite conditions (see subpart U of this part for these two documents). In most cases, if hazardous materials issues are found, the site is not eligible for enrollment.

(v) Determine if any onsite or offsite issues not identified in paragraph (iv) above would make the land ineligible for enrollment.

(vi) Begin the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) evaluation process and assemble required documentation to ensure compliance with NEPA provisions by conducting an environmental evaluation and documenting alternatives and findings on the Form NRCS-CPA-52, “Environmental Evaluation Worksheet,” or successor form.

Note: Form NRCS-CPA-52 or successor form must be completed along with appropriate supporting documentation and signed by the responsible Federal official (RFO) prior to execution of an agreement to purchase (forms APCE or

AECLU).

(vii) Interview the landowner and complete the landowner disclosure worksheet which contains information about use or occupancy of the land, structures, leases, or other information about the property. (See subpart U of this part for landowner disclosure worksheet.) NRCS should request the landowner provide copies of any written, unrecorded leases or agreements at this time.

(viii) Verify that the proposed boundary and ingress and egress route are acceptable to NRCS. At minimum, land access to the proposed enrollment area must be all-wheel-drive accessible.

(ix) Identify if initial changes in the configuration of the offered area are necessary based on the outcome of these reviews, determine whether the landowner is interested in proceeding with a revised offered area, and ensure the evaluations and determinations made in this section are applicable to the area offered for enrollment.

C. Eligible Land Types – Farmed or Converted Wetlands

(1) Farmed wetland or converted wetland together with the adjacent land that is functionally dependent on the wetlands are eligible for enrollment, except that converted wetland are not eligible if the conversion was not commenced prior to December 23, 1985, except as provided for in section 528.105I(6) below.

(2) For the purposes of ACEP-WRE eligibility only, lands may be considered farmed wetland or converted wetland if such land is identified by NRCS to be any of the following:

(i) Farmed or Converted Wetlands.—Wetlands farmed under natural conditions, farmed wetlands, prior converted cropland, commenced conversion wetlands, or farmed wetland pasture. NRCS makes this determination based on 180-NFSAM criteria.

(ii) Former or Degraded Wetlands.—Former or degraded wetlands that occur on lands that have been or are being used for the production of food and fiber, including rangeland, pastureland, hayland, and forest production lands, where the hydrology has been significantly degraded or modified and will be substantially
