The following emerald ash borer infested trees must be removed: <br />•11 trees along Otter Lake Road east of the sidewalk. <br />•Trees 208-215 in the northeast corner of the property. <br />These trees have the potential to impact public safety and cause off-site property <br />damage. <br />All other ash trees on the site that have not been treated to prevent emerald ash <br />borer infestation should be removed as well. <br />2. Blanding’s turtle (Emydoidea blandingii) has been observed within a one-mile <br />radius of the site. The MN DNR flyer and factsheet on this turtle must be <br />provided to all contractors working on the site. Any sightings of this species <br />should be reported to City staff so that the turtles can be safely relocated. <br />3. A vegetation management plan will be required for the berm and any additional <br />exposed soil resulting from the unpermitted grading activities. This will include a <br />vegetation assessment that identifies the plant species currently present. <br />Depending on the results of the assessment, a plan to prepare the site for native <br />seeding may also be required. <br />4.Erosion blanket must be a natural net variety. A note stating this should be added <br />to the Sediment and Erosion Control Plan (Sheet C2.01), the Erosion Control <br />Blanket Detail (Sheet C4.01), and the BMP Quantity Summary (Sheet C2.02). <br />Environmental Memo <br />Attachment 7: Environmental Coordinator Memo - Glamos Wire
