Ellen Mayo <br />Parker/Dersham Resource Site -Orchid Disqualification Request <br />Page 2 <br />According to the USFWS guidelines (1992) the orchid is typically found in seasonally <br />moist soils and wet meadows near springs, lakes, or perennial streams and their <br />floodplains. Chazacteristic orchid habitat is not located within the Parker/Dersham <br />Resource site. No water features or wetlands were observed on the site. There is no <br />hydrophytic vegetation located on the proposed site. The Parker/Dersham Resource site <br />is dominated by ruderal species that include whitetop (Cardana draba), Canada thistle <br />(Girsium arvense), and curly dock (Rumex crispus).. <br />For the above reasons we request a concurrence for disqualification ofthis site for further <br />consideration as orchid habitat. If you have any questions, or we can provide additional <br />supporting information regazding this concurrence request for disqualification for the <br />Spiranthes diluvidlis on the Pazker/Dersham site, please contact us.-. <br />Sin~cer~el~y, ff -- <br /><_:,r ~ ~'6~ ~4v tom[' -+~, _ <br />Ede/ith~Sa~-w'age <br />Principal <br />c; Jeff Gregg, Hall-Irwin Corporation <br />Karen Flanders, Civil Resources <br />attachments: General Location Map <br />Site-Photos <br />
