note
No crops growing at time of visit. Hydrophytic vegetation absent (No X checked); Hydric Soil present (Yes X); Wetland Hydrology present (Yes X); Overall wetland determination: No. USACE field scientist considered feature a wetland due to farming disturbance to vegetation layer. Soil profile 0-12 inches: matrix 10YR 3/2 (95%), redox concentration 10YR 6/8 (5%, Type C, Loc M), Loamy/Clayey texture. Hydric soil indicator: Redox Dark Surface (F6) checked.

⚠ Gaps in the record
- Datum field reads 'North' on the form — this appears to be a label artifact (the form prints 'Datum: North' meaning NAD83/geographic north reference), not a true datum name; treated as printed.
- Landform field is recorded as 'soybean field' which is atypical for this field (normally hillside, terrace, flat, etc.) but matches the image exactly.
- USACE field scientist noted the feature was considered a wetland due to farming disturbance to the vegetation layer — is_wetland is recorded as No per the checked Summary of Findings box, consistent with hydrophytic vegetation being absent due to disturbance.
- Local relief is 'concave'; Sparsely Vegetated Concave Surface (B8) and Inundation Visible on Aerial Imagery (B7) are checked as primary hydrology indicators; secondary indicators include Saturation Visible on Aerial Imagery (C9), Stunted or Stressed Plants (D1), and Geomorphic Position (D2).
