8 <br />Site 10: <br />This site is located immediately adjacent to the Red River of the North and measures <br />approximately 14.8 acr es. The majority of the site is comprised of Cashel silty clay (I293B), <br />which is found in 0-6% slopes and occasionally flooded. The major soil component (80%) is <br />Cashel, a loamy overflow that is non-hydric, but somewhat poorly drained. This site is adjacent <br />to a public park, with an established disk golf course on a portion of it. The Oak Savan na <br />strategy (blue polygon) would be utilized on this site, as that habitat type lends itself well to <br />public recreation of green space. Walking trails with interpretive signage could be incorporated <br />for public outreach, explaining the FMM Project and its associated mitigation measures to the <br />general public. <br />Site 18 – OIN 1060: <br />This site is a former building site/flood buyout property, located adjacent to the Wild Rice River <br />and measures approximately 3.1 acres. The southern half of this site falls within the 10-year <br />flood inundation boundary, and the majority of the site is comprised of Wahpeton silty clay <br />(I451D), which is described as being found on 1-15% slopes and occasionally flooded. The <br />major components are listed as Wahpeton (35%), which is a moderately well drained, non- <br />hydric clayey soil, and Cashel (25%), a somewhat poorly drained, non-hydric loamy overflow <br />soil. Although this is a smaller property, it would provide additional riparian buffer benefits to the <br />Wild Rice River. The sloped areas adjacent to the river would be planted using the Bank <br />Stabilization strategy (orange polygon, approx. 0.21 acres) and transition into Floodplain Forest <br />strategy (green polygon, approx. 2.9 acres) as the elevation rises, farther from the river, all the <br />way up to the private home levee/berm located on the west side of this parcel. <br />Site 19 – OIN 5244, OIN 7245: <br />This is a former building site/flood buyout property, located adjacent to the Wild Rice River and <br />measures approximately 4.4 acres. The majority of the site is comprised of Wahpeton silty clay <br />(I451D), which is described as being found on 1-15% slopes and occasionally flooded. The <br />major components are listed as Wahpeton (35%), which is a moderately well drained, non- <br />hydric clayey soil, and Cashel (25%), a somewhat poorly drained, non-hydric loamy overflow <br />soil. On the western edge of the property, there are Fargo-Hegne (I238A) silty clay soils <br />mapped, which are typically found on 0-1% slopes. Major component is Fargo (50%), which is <br />described as a poorly drained, hydric, clayey soil. Although this is a smaller property, it would <br />provide additional riparian buffer benefits to the Wild Rice River. The sloped areas adjacent to <br />the river would be planted using the Bank Stabilization strategy (orange polygon, approx. 0.5 <br />acres) and transition into both the Floodplain Forest strategy (green polygon, approx. 2.5 acr es), <br />and the Oak Savanna strategy (blue polygon, approx. 1.4 acres) farther from the river. <br />Site 20 – OIN 815Y: <br />This site is located immediately adjacent to the Wild Rice River and measures approximately <br />9.6 acres. There are significant erosional issues on the northern end along the river, and the site <br />contains an abandoned oxbow. The vast majority of the site, approximately 90% lies within the <br />10-year flood inundation boundary, and the entire site is comprised of Wahpeton silty clay
