STAFF ORIGINATOR: James E. Studenski, City Engineer
COUNCIL MEETING DATE: December 11, 2006
TOPIC: Resolution No. 06 -200, Authorize Professional Services for the
Water Emergency and Conservation Plan.
VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5 Vote Required
BACKGROUND:
Public water suppliers that service more than 1,000 people are required to have
a Water Emergency and Conservation Plan approved by the Department of
Natural Resources (Minnesota Statutes 103G.291). These plans were first
required in 1996 and must be updated every ten years. The Minnesota
Department of Natural Resources has prepared a schedule for each public water
supplier, with a due date for the City of Lino Lakes of October 15, 2007. The
plan must address supply and demand reduction measures and allocation
priorities and must identify alternative sources of water for use in an emergency.
The current Water Emergency and Conservation Plan was created by TKDA in
1997 and revised in 2004 to meet the requirements of a federal mandate of the
USEPA, under the Homeland Security Act. That federal mandate required the
City of Lino Lakes to prepare a Water System Vulnerability Assessment and
amend and update the Water Emergency and Conservation Plan with the
purpose of evaluating the existing security of the water system.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of Resolution 06 -200, Authorize Professional
Services for the Water Emergency and Conservation Plan.
