Observation Narrative	Plot is located in the most upstream, oligotrophic portion of a boggy headwaters seep. Vegetation here has been maintained in a shrubby to herbaceous condition by a long history of frequent burning resulting from military training activities. Open boggy wetlands such as this may have been frequent in the Piedmont and Coastal Plain in the pre-settlement and early post-settlement landscape, but have been reduced during the 20th century by large scale fire reduction and control. Streamhead swale 0.2 mi northeast of Range 8A firing positions, Quantico Marine Base Impact Area.
