Ms. Katie Larsen 04/02/2025 Page 6 submitted delineation report (Hawkins-Rogalla Lino Lakes Wetland Delineation Report) is available upon request. A wetland replacement plan and no loss request (for incidental wetland) was submitted, reviewed, and approved through VLAWMO and the City. The TEP in its WCA Notice of Decision agreed that WI-7 is incidental per WCA rules, WL10 is wetland based on new guidance and the WI-5 boundary was extended to the northwest. Per aerial photos in 3-9- 2022 addendum, WI-9 and WI-8 are wetland. No other changes were directed to all other delineated wetland boundaries in the project area. Approved wetland boundaries are shown in the 3-10-2022 Rogalla and Hawkins surveys from Kurth Surveying, Inc. The proposed WCA-regulated 0.13 ac of impact to Wetland 10 will be replaced at a 2:1 ratio via the debiting of wetland bank credits from the Rapp Farm and Anderson Slough wetland bank (#170) located within major watershed 20 and Bank Service Area 7, which is the same major watershed and Bank Service Area as the project location. This bank is owned by the project applicant. A draft Standard Credit Withdrawal Form is included. Compensatory mitigation is not proposed for USACE-regulated Wetland 7. Wetland buffers meeting minimum and average requirements will be required around all wetland areas following construction. • Landscaping A Landscape Plan for Wilkinson Waters Addition has been submitted and will be reviewed by staff and the City's Environmental Coordinator. The Environmental Coordinator will provide separate comments. • Floodplain The proposed pond berm and trail grading appears to result in floodplain fill. Calculation of compensatory cut must be provided to ensure there is no net fill in the floodplain. • Drainage and Utility Easements Roadways are proposed within right-of-way and lots include standard drainage and utility easements. Larger drainage and utility easements will be required to be provided over any utilities outside the right of way and any surface water management features The plan shows White Bear Lake Township easements (30' and 50') with the existing sanitary sewer and watermain crossing the site. White Bear Lake Township has commented that the Township has no easement and that the lines were installed and owned by the North Oaks Company. Please update the linework or provide a record showing the easements. Comments: 1. For pipe within drainage and utility easements that is greater than 10' deep, easements must be set with a width equal to the pipe depth. For example, a 20' deep pipe would require 20' wide easements on either side of the alignment. a. This appears to be needed for P-101, P-102, P-111, P-110, and P-202.
