CONSIDERATION OF THE MINUTES OF MAY 11, 2015 Economic Development Authority (EDA) Member Kusterman moved to approve the May 11, 2015 minutes. EDA Member Rafferty seconded the motion. Motion carried on a voice vote. CONSIDERATION OF RESOLUTION NO. 15-04, APPROVING THE PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT WITH D.R. HORTON INC. , MINNESOTA, LEGACY AT WOODS EDGE PROPERTY. Community Development Director Grochala explained the proposed sale of a portion of the Legacy at Woods Edge property, indicating the location of the property on a map. The developer is proposing to construct single family townhomes on the property and that is consistent with city master plans for the area. Since the property originally went into foreclosure and the city was eventually able to gain title for the property to its EDA, the number one goal has been to pay off the debt service related to improvements to the property. It appears that the proposed sale proceeds along with tax increment generated from developing the site would be adequate to cover remaining debt service. The developer, D.R. Horton, is offering to purchase the property for $1 million. Mr. Grochala briefly reviewed the terms of the proposed Purchase and Sale Agreement, including conditions, opt out provisions and government appeal consideration. He noted that staff is still in the process of updating the formal agreement but the major terms are clear and he is requesting EDA approval of the resolution. City Attorney Langel reviewed terms of the agreement in more detail. EDA Member Reinert said he is interested in seeing the city have the first right of refusal if nothing happens with the development in a year; there could be land value changes in that period of time. The Vice President of Land, Minnesota Division, for D.R. Horton, addressed the EDA. He noted that the company is the number one home builder in the country, and have operated in Minnesota since 1994. They are well established. They are excited about the project proposed for Lino Lakes and want to move forward as soon as possible within the necessity of staying within a plan. He can promise that their plan will be thoughtful and thorough and conscious of necessary process. EDA President Roeser noted that he thinks it would be a good move for the city to get the property developed because it brings new residents to the city as well as additional tax base. 1 EDA MINUTES December 28, 2015 DRAFT President Roeser opened the public hearing on the matter. Melissa Maher, 6462 Fawn Lane, asked, in regard to the proceeds of the sale of the land, if there would be any obligation to share any of the proceeds with the other jurisdictions that were involved when the land was forfeited. Community Development Director Grochala further outlined the tax forfeiture process. There being no other comments, the public hearing was closed. EDA Member Rafferty moved to approve EDA Resolution No. 15-04. EDA Member Stoesz seconded the motion. Motion carried on a voice vote. UNFINISHED BUSINESS There was no Unfinished Business. NEW BUSINESS There was no New Business. ADJOURNMENT There being no further business, EDA Member Rafferty moved to adjourn. EDA Member Stoesz seconded the motion. Motion carried on a voice vote. The meeting was adjourned at 6:30 p.m. 2 LINO LAKES ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY AGENDA ITEM 3A STAFF ORIGINATOR: Michael Grochala MEETING DATE: February 8, 2016 TOPIC: Introduction of New Members and Annual Appointments VOTE REQUIRED: Simple Majority BACKGROUND The Economic Development Authority (EDA) was established in 1990 pursuant to Minnesota Statutes Chapter 469.

Annual Advisory Board Process — Administrator Karlson noted that the council has received a list of applicants for open/expired advisory board positions. All the applicants would be reappointments except for one position on the Planning and Zoning Board. How does the council want to proceed with an appointment process; shall it be an interview process? It was noted that there were as many openings as applicants. The council concurred that they will hold a joint meeting with all the boards and that will provide an opportunity for new council members to meet the board members. Community Development Director Grochala suggested that would be a good opportunity for him to present information on the proposed Mattamy development. The mayor suggested that a meet and greet be held for the first half-hour of that meeting to allow for some handshaking and introductions. The meeting will be scheduled for February 17. 2. Public Safety Vehicle Capital Replacement — Mayor Reinert indicated that with a tight schedule for this evening's meeting, this item wouldn't be moving forward to the council. He suggested a quick discussion and more to come at the next work session. Public Safety Director Swenson announced that the amount of funds to be received from the Centennial Fire District replacement fund will be $840,000, more than anticipated due to accrued interest. He looks forward to the council's discussion on the matter of this capital purchase plan and noted that it is his understanding that a work session direction would be sufficient to move forward with equipment orders. The mayor suggested that the timeline requires moving forward sometime in February. Director Swenson clarified that it is his understanding that orders can be made through February but it is totally up to the company.

BACKGROUND Ms. Lukin-Sobolewski accepted a conditional job offer on February 3rd, which is contingent upon successful completion of a criminal background check and a drug and alcohol test. Her starting annual salary will be $54,278, which is Step Three of the salary range for this position in accordance with the AFSCME labor agreement. Alisha has ten years of experience in recreational programming and should be a great addition to City's parks and recreation division. RECOMMENDATION Approve the appointment of Alisha Lukin-Sobolewski as Recreation Supervisor, effective February 24, 2016. CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM 3B STAFF ORIGINATOR: Jeff Karlson, City Administrator MEETING DATE: February 8, 2016 TOPIC: Charter Commission Request for LMC Assistance VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5 INTRODUCTION The Lino Lakes Charter Commission has requested specific assistance from the League of Minnesota Cities (LMC) through its Charter Assistance Program. The League will only agree to provide assistance to the Charter Commission with approval of the City Council. BACKGROUND Pursuant to Minnesota Statute § 410.06, subd 1, a charter commission may obtain legal counsel for charter revision or amendment. At the commission's request, the League is able to provide charter services by one of its staff attorneys. On January 14, 2016, the Charter Commission agreed to work with the League of Minnesota Cities on a charter amendment to establish council election wards in the City. Commission Chair Caroline Dahl sent a letter to the League requesting assistance for an amendment that would be included on the ballot for the upcoming November election. Ms. Dahl and several Charter Commission members appeared before the Council at the February 1st work session to explain why they were requesting assistance from LMC. In June 2014, the Commission approved an amendment to create a ward system in Lino Lakes. The City Council declined submission of the proposed amendment because it conflicted with state law for three reasons: (1) The Commission does not have authority to determine ward boundaries; (2) the amendment did not provide a window of time during which ward boundaries would be redrawn; and (3) only the City Council may authorize additional charter commission expenses it deems necessary. The Commission needs assistance to draft an amendment that does not conflict with state law. If the City Council supports this action, the League would work with the Commission to draft an amendment that could be submitted to the voters for the November 8, 2016 general election. RECOMMENDATION Approval of Charter Commission's request for charter services from LMC. ATTACHMENTS Charter Commission's Original 2014 Amendment Section 2.03. Council composition and election. Subdivision 1. The Council shall be composed of a Mayor and four (4) Council Members who shall be qualified electors in the City of Lino Lakes and who shall be elected at large. Council Members shall serve for a term of four (4) years and/or until a successor is elected and qualifies. The Mayor shall be elected at large, and shall serve for a term of two (2) years and/or until a successor is elected and qualifies. Subdivision 2. Each member of the Council shall be elected from a separate ward. Voters may only vote for a candidate for the Council ward seat within which the voters reside. Council Members must reside within the ward from which they are elected. If a Council Member moves within the City from such Council Member's elective ward, or if a Council Member is excluded from a ward as a result of districting or redistricting, such Council Member's term of office shall expire on January first, following the next regular City election. Subdivision 3. For the purposes of electing City council members, the City shall be divided into four (4) serially numbered wards. These wards shall be as equal in population as practicable and each ward shall be composed of compact, contiguous territory. Ward boundaries shall follow visible, clearly recognizable physical features as required by state law. Subdivision 4. Upon enactment of these provisions, and after every Federal decennial census, the Charter Commission, after public hearings, shall determine the council election wards (districting) in this manner described in this section. The public hearings shall be held after published notice of said hearings, and opportunity to speak shall be allowed members of the public upon such reasonable terms as the Comission shall adopt. The Commission shall adopt its districting resolution by a majority vote of its entire membership, and file it in the office of the City Clerk no later than the first Tuesday in June prior to the first City election after the Federal decennial census. The Council shall provide for a sum of money, adequate for this purpose, to be used by the Commission to hire staff to aid it in preparing its districting plan. Proposed ballot language: Should the city be split into four wards, with one city council member elected from each ward? CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM 4A STAFF ORIGINATOR: John Swenson, Public Safety Director MEETING DATE: February 8, 2016 TOPIC: Fire Capital Purchase VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5 INTRODUCTION As part of the 2016 Budget Adoption discussion, during the Council Work Session on December 7, 2015, Council members requested more information on the 2016 Capital Replacement Schedule and directed staff to remove the 2016 Capital Replacement portion of the 2016 Budget which was adopted at the December 14, 2015 City Council Meeting. During the December 28, 2015 Council Work Session, Council directed staff to move Capital Replacement Plan discussion to the January 4, 2016 Work Session. At the January 4, 2016 Work Session Council requested further information which was provided via email (attachment provided). At the January 28, 2016 Council Work Session staff was directed to move this topic to the February 1, 2016 Council Work Session. During the February 1' Work Session, staff was directed to development four options for the Council to consider and act upon at the February 8, 2016 Council Meeting. BACKGROUND There has been extensive dialogue on this topic dating back to February, 2015 and as detailed above. Attached to this staff report is the February 1, 2016 Work Sessions Report with attachments. As noted during the February 1st discussion with Council, the total cash distribution to Lino Lakes from the CFD Capital Distribution will be $842,530.93. There will be a second distribution from the CFD Operating Reserve Fund to Lino Lakes later this year once the audit is complete. During the discussion at the February 1st Work Session the following options were discussed: • Purchase two Ford F550 chassis and outfit both chassis as light rescue / mini pumpers. • Purchase two Ford F550 chassis and outfit one of the chassis as light rescue / mini pumper. • Purchase one Ford F550 chassis and outfit this chassis as light rescue / mini pumper. • Make no fire capital purchase in 2016. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommendation is to purchase two Ford F550 chassis and outfit both chassis as light rescue / mini pumper. ATTACHMENTS Staff Report with attachments from February 1, 2016 Work Session WS — Item 1 WORK SESSION STAFF REPORT Work Session Item Date: February 1, 2016 To: City Council From: John Swenson, Director of Public Safety Re: Public Safety Vehicle Capital Replacement Plan — Fire Division Background As part of the 2016 Budget Adoption discussion, during the Council Work Session on December 7, 2015, Council members requested more information on the 2016 Capital Replacement Schedule and directed staff to remove the 2016 Capital Replacement portion of the 2016 Budget which was adopted at the December 14, 2015 City Council Meeting. During the December 28, 2015 Council Work Session, Council directed staff to move Capital Replacement Plan discussion to the January 4, 2016 Work Session. During the January 4, 2016 Work Session, Council requested further information which was sent to Council via email. The entire email string is attached to this report for your review. Staff has also attached photos of other light rescue / mini pumper which Custom Fire has built for other fire agencies.

Staff recommendation for 2016 fire vehicle replacement remains the same. Staff recommends that Lino Lakes purchase two light rescue/mini pumpers in 2016. The cost of the recommended purchase is a total of $450,000 ($225,000 each). Staff recommends this purchase be funded with the dollars apportioned to Lino Lakes from the Centennial Fire District (CFD) Capital Replacement fund. Utilizing these funds in this manner is consistent with the intended use of capital replacement funds and enables the City to reduce bonding costs for equipment. The City of Lino Lakes portion of the CFD Capital Replacement fund is projected to be $744,332.41. This projected balance does not include any assets that have been purchased since the August 2014 asset distribution process. These new assets will be distributed as outlined in the JPA during the CFD Operations Committee meeting on January 14, 2016, and ratified by the CFD Steering Committee at its January 28, 2016 meeting. The purchase of two light rescue/mini pumpers will: 1. prolong the useful life of aged fire vehicles in our fleet; 2. address significant repair costs and out of service time for older apparatus; 3. reduce the size of the fire vehicle inventory; 4. improve the City of Lino Lakes Insurance Services Office (ISO) fire vehicle rating score; and 5. provide options to reduce future replacement costs. As noted in the February 2, 2015 presentation and report to Council, the light rescue/mini pumpers would be utilized as "first out" vehicles on nearly all of the fire calls for service in Lino Lakes. This will enable El 1 and E21 to be utilized as "second out" vehicles, greatly reducing their usage in the hopes of prolonging their useful life. Since purchasing Ell and E21 used from City of Woodbury in spring of 2015, the apparatus has been used for training staff. To date in 2015, Lino Lakes has incurred a total of $15,514.59 in repair costs for these pieces of apparatus. E21 was utilized more frequently for training and consequently accounted for $10,155.69 of the total repairs and Ell was utilized less frequently and accounted for $5,358.90. This demonstrates that increased usage will likely result in increased repair costs. With the purchase of two light rescue/mini pumpers, staff would recommend that fire vehicle inventory be reduced as follows: 1. Sell both grass units (1994 Chev S10 and 1994 GMC PU) which are outfitted for use during grass fires. The new light rescue/mini pumper can be utilized in the same fashion and will provide more equipment and better service in response to grass fires. 2. Upon a complete evaluation of Rescue 21 by the City's mechanic, a determination regarding whether Rescue 21 would be sold or transferred for use within the City fleet to replace current asset. The net result of this purchase would be a reduction in the Fire Division vehicle inventory by one vehicle. Staff has analyzed the ISO scoring tables for fire vehicles and determined that the purchase of two light rescue/mini pumpers would improve the City Lino Lakes ISO rating by 1,248 points (624 points per unit). With the fire vehicle inventory as on January 30, 2016, Lino Lakes ISO fire vehicle score will be 2,430 points. With the addition of the two light recue/mini pumpers, the ISO fire vehicle score would increase to 3,668. As Council may recall from previous discussion on fire matters, the ISO rating system is utilized by some insurance companies to set homeowners insurance premiums. The increased ISO scoring could result in some residents obtaining a lower homeowners insurance premium. The purchase of the two light rescue/mini pumpers will provide opportunities to reduce future fire vehicle replacement costs. The proposed light rescue/mini pumper vehicles are built on Ford F550 chassis with custom built fire components and pump. This will allow future replacement of these light rescue/mini pumpers to be accomplished by purchasing a new chassis and placing the custom built fire components and pump on the chassis.

In order to effectively and efficiently plan to address the community needs for fire protection apparatus and vehicles, staff has: • reviewed the Centennial Fire District apparatus replacement plan, • reviewed available maintenance and repair records, • researched other fire organization's replacement and maintenance plans, • met with the staff at Emergency Apparatus Maintenance, • spoke with manufacturers of fire apparatus. The below table compares the Centennial Fire District (CFD) replacement plan with the LLPSD Fire Division proposed plan as well as provides a cost forecast for the purchase of fire apparatus.

It should be noted the apparatus which is Circle Pines and Centerville will take possession of are also at or near the end of its useful life per NFPA guidelines. The proposed replacement schedule for fire apparatus is based on the assumption that Lino Lakes purchases two used fire vehicles from Woodbury (presented in Council Work Session Agenda item #1) for use as engines/pumpers in the Lino Lakes response plan. After reviewing available repair and maintenance documents and meeting with EAM and other fire professionals, staff is confident that through proper budgeting for repairs and maintenance the proposed apparatus/vehicle replacement schedule is a responsible use of equipment in a manner that will provide financial efficiencies. Utilization of the apparatus in this manner will afford our community the opportunity to extend the replacement of fire apparatus and ensures that we address all community needs for fire protection. Requested Council Direction Staff is seeking Council input on this item.

Ford has not formally announced what changes will be made to the F550 chassis. Some of the rumored changes are moving from steel to aluminum frame, adding cross members to the frame, and changes to the electronic control system. If these are the changes the dealership is forecasting the cost will increase for the chassis. Until Custom Fire is able to review detailed specs and plans of the 2017 model they are unable to forecast costs for the 2017 model. If the rumored changes do in fact move forward, Custom Fire does anticipate increased engineering time to address the additional cross members and any • changes in the electronic control system. I think it is a good bet the costs associated with the customization for fire will likely increase with the 2017 F550 model. Staff also has some concerns with purchasing a 2017 model and thus being one of the first agencies, if not the first agency, to work through the new engineering that will need to take place as a result of the Ford changes. Custom Fire has been working with the 2016 Ford chassis for several years and has worked through the engineering process associated with installing aftermarket fire equipment on the chassis with great success. Staff is requesting that this topic be placed on the January 25th or February 1st Council Work Session. Staff needs definitive Council direction on this matter as we are holding off on decisions related to installation of vehicle graphics on assets transferred from CFD that would be sold if the proposed fire capital replacement plan is approved with the purchase of two light rescue / mini pumpers. If the proposed fire capital replacement schedule is not adopted, staff needs to begin work on creating a new fire capital replacement plan that will address our community needs and aging fire apparatus. Please advise which Council Work Session agenda this topic should be added to.

I base this on when the 2015 model year ended last year. The 2017 model year is a body style change so most likely, the price increase for the model year will be more than usual. I recommend ordering as soon as possible to get the 2016 pricing. The best information we have at this point is Ford will not accept any new orders for the 2016 F550 Chassis in February. We were also informed that the dealership anticipates a larger than normal price increase for 2017 model. Staff was also informed that Ford will not accept any orders for the 2017 model until sometime in the fall of 2016. Staff would like further Council direction as to when to bring the capital replacement back to Council for further discussion. 3 John Swenson Department of Public Safety ••.

We arrived as the first piece of apparatus and were able to extinguish the fire and pull an unconscious victim from the home, resulting in his survival, and prior to any additional vehicles responding. I have been to more accidents and car fires than I can remember as the first arriving piece of fire apparatus with this type of vehicle. I have never found it insufficient to handle the incident. o One occasion we extinguished a fully -involved Heavy Duty truck and construction trailer. How we will use the Mini -pumpers It will be a multi-purpose vehicle taken on nearly all calls. It allows firefighters to respond to medicals and other service calls in a smaller vehicle (saving fuel, wear and ONE VISION. ONE MISSION. LINO LAKES PUBLIC SAFETY DEPARTMENT. tear on larger vehicles, quicker response) while at the same time being able to respond to any fires/accidents that may come in while they are out. This is a common scenario. Our intention would be to utilize these vehicles in a flexible manner. For example, a confirmed working structure fire we would likely take the full sized engine over the mini - pumper in most cases. Our utilization of cross -trained police officers will ensure fire staff gets confirmed information from the police officer on the fire scene, which will ensure that proper piece of apparatus responds based on confirmed information. These vehicles are suitable for the majority of grass fires. Using the proper hose configuration, we could handle most grass fires and any fires that threaten structures (and actually have a major advantage over the traditional grass rig in this regard). Being in the Rice Creek watershed district a major hazard is swamps, which is off limits to all vehicles and would require DNR intervention regardless of vehicle. I am happy to attend any future meetings to discuss this further and provide my first-hand experience with this type of emergency equipment or provide any other information that would assist in this process.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM 6A STAFF ORIGINATOR: Michael Grochala MEETING DATE: February 8, 2016 TOPIC: Consider Resolution No. 16-08, Approving Local Surface Water Management Plan, Michael Grochala VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5 INTRODUCTION Staff is requesting City Council authorization to distribute the draft Local Surface Water Management Plan for review in accordance with Minnesota Statutes. BACKGROUND The City of Lino Lakes is required to prepare a Surface Water Management Plan that must, at a minimum, meet the requirements for local plans in Minnesota Statutes, Section 103B.235 and be in conformance with Watershed District, Management Organization, and Metropolitan Council plans. The Rice Creek Watershed District (RCWD) completed an update to their watershed management plans in June of 2010 which subsequently required an update to the City's plan. The plan provides an assessment of the City's land and water resources, identifies issues and establishes goals and policies for 12 management categories, identifies proposed actions to implement the plan and estimated costs, as well as describing the process to administer the plan and coordinate with other local and regional agencies. The City Council authorized preparation of the plan in June of 2011. The City's Environmental Board reviewed the plan, prepared by EOR, Inc., at their March 27, 2013 regular meeting and recommended approval of the plan. Under state law the plan must be distributed for review and comment to RCWD, VLAWMO, Metropolitan Council, and Anoka County prior to City approval of the document. The plan was approved for distribution by the City Council on May 13, 2013 (Resolution 13-64). No comments were received from the Vadnais Lake Area Water Management Organization (VLAWMO) or Anoka County. Metropolitan Council completed its review in June of 2013 and commended the City on its proactive approach to water management. The City received comments from the RCWD in July of 2013 requesting modification to the plan primarily related to intercommunity surface water flows. This led to continued discussions with the RCWD regarding the NE Drainage Area. Additional language was added to the plan to acknowledge the City's work on the NE Drainage Area and that implementation of planning for the area would be subject to RCWD rules and approvals. The RCWD Board of Managers approved the plan on January 13, 2016. Pursuant to Minn. Stat. 103B.235 Subd. 4 and as a result of the approval by RCWD and Metropolitan Council, as described above, the City of Lino Lakes shall adopt and implement its plan within 120 days of watershed adoption (no later than May 12, 2016) and shall amend its official controls accordingly within 180 days (no later than July 13, 2016). Staff does not anticipate the need for any further amendments to official controls, outside of the NE Drainage Area, as a result of the plans adoption. The City's Stormwater, Erosion and Sediment Control ordinance was amended in 2015. RECOMMENDATION Staff is recommending approval of Resolution No. 16-08 ATTACHMENTS 1. Resolution No. 16-08 2.

Stat. 103B.235 for Local Water Management Plans. NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by The City Council of The City of Lino Lakes that the Local Surface Water Management Plan is hereby approved Adopted by the Council of the City of Lino Lakes this 8th day of February, 2016. The motion for the adoption of the foregoing resolution was introduced by Council Member and was duly seconded by Council Member and upon vote being taken thereon, the following voted in favor thereof: The following voted against same: Jeff Reinert, Mayor ATTEST: Julianne Bartell, City Clerk technical memo ECR w a t e r c o i o g „r'mmnnity Project Name To / Contact info 1 Cc / Contact info 1 From / Contact info 1 Regarding Lino Lakes Surface Water Management Plan Date 01.22.16 Mike Grochala, City of Lino Lakes Jason Naber, Brett Emmons, EOR City Council Approval of Lino Lakes LSWMP It is recommended that the City Council of Lino Lakes consider the adoption of the Local Surface Water Management Plan (LSWMP). Minnesota Rules Chapter 8410, subd. 9b. requires a schedule for implementation of local water plans that requires all local water plans to be adopted not more than two years before the local comprehensive plan is due. The following timeline summary indicates that the City has completed the requirements pursuant to the entirety of Minn. Stat. 103B.235 for Local Water Management Plans, including Subd.1 and Subd. 2: As referenced in the letter the City provided the Rice Creek Watershed District (RCWD) with the LWSMP on June 6, 2013. On July 16, 2013, and within the required 60 day review period pursuant to section 103B.235 Subd. 3, the City of Lino Lakes received the attached comments from RCWD on the LSWMP dated March 25, 2013 (See Attachment A). On July 11, 2013, and within the required 45 day review period pursuant to section 103B.235 Subd. 3a the City of Lino Lakes, the Vadnais Lakes Area Watershed Management Organization (VLAWMO), and RCWD received the attached comments on the LSWMP from the Metropolitan Council (See Attachment B). Prior to and culminating on December 15 and 23, 2015 EOR submitted to the City of Lino Lakes, and forwarded to RCWD, a response to the most recent RCWD comments pursuant to 103B.235 Subd. 5 (See Attachment C). This memo was reviewed by RCWD and later revised to reflect suggested changes (reflected in redlines). On January 13, 2016, RCWD Board of Managers approved the City of Lino Lakes LSWMP pursuant to Minn Stat. 103B.235 Subd. 3 (See Attachment D). Pursuant to Minn. Stat. 103B.235 Subd. 4 and as a result of the approval by RCWD and Metropolitan Council, as described above, the City of Lino Lakes shall adopt and implement its plan within 120 days of watershed adoption (no later than May 12, 2016) and shall amend its official controls accordingly within 180 days (no later than July 13, 2016). RCWD has respectively requested that a copy of the City's resolution or motion of local adoption be forwarded to the District Office (Attachment D). Emmons & Olivier Resources, Inc. 651 Hale Ave N.

The reviewed plan was dated March 25, 2013 and received by the District on June 6, 2013. The plan is largely compliant in terms of formatting and the general level of detail provided, however, the District offers a few comments that must be addressed before staff can recommend that the LSWMP be approved by the RCWD Board of Managers. 1. Page 5 and elsewhere as appropriate: RCWD Rules RMP -2 and RMP -3 have been consolidated into Rule F as of June 26, 2013 (effective date: July 1, 2013). The District understands that the LSWMP was drafted during its Rule revision process, but suggests that the LSWMP be amended accordingly. 2. Page 34: RCWD's floodplain modeling effort is complete. The language indicates that it is still underway in 2012. This section is not current. 3. As in comment #2, several portions of the plan read as though they were written in 2012 and have not been reviewed for accuracy since then. Please ensure that the plan is up-to-date in this fashion. 4. A map should be included that clearly shows which areas of the City are under the jurisdiction of RCWD and VLAWMO, respectively. 5. No land cover map was found within the plan. A current land cover map using MLCCS or other land cover data should be included. This could be inserted after Figure 21. 6. Policy 4.1.1.0 is no longer consistent with RCWD Rule C. Please modify this policy to be in alignment with RCWD Rule C.5(f) and C.6(f). 7. The TMDL discussions are generally very good, but appear to omit discussions of key downstream impaired waters such as Middle Rice Creek and Long Lake (New Brighton). If TMDL's were to be developed for these waterbodies, Lino Lakes would likely be listed as a regulated MS4. 8. The City's Shoreland, Floodplain and Erosion Control ordinances and MS4 SWPPP should be attached as appendices to the LSWMP 9. The plan must acknowledge and identify those locations where flows leave the City and are transferred downstream, with some assessment of the estimated rate assuming full build out 4325 Pheasant Ridge Drive NE #6111 Blaine, MN 55449 1 T: 763-398-3070 1 F: 763-398-3088 1 www.ricecreek.org BOARD OF Barbara A.

The public drainage systems of the Rice Creek Watershed District convey much of the stormwater discharge between the cities within the District, and are relatively easy locations to quantify, assess, and manage stormwater discharge. Figure 10 shows the locations of intercommunity flows along the public drainage systems and public waterways of the District. A summary of modeled peak discharges for each of these locations is provided in Table 9. These discharges are based upon current land uses and provide a benchmark for evaluating potential intercommunity issues. In the future, the conveyance capacity of these locations can be compared to current and projected flows, and subsequently be assessed for any potential deficiencies. These values may also be used by the cities to assess the adequacy of capacity within the conveyance system.

E Vadnais Heights, MN 55127 RE: Lino Lakes Local Water Management Plan Metropolitan Council Reviews File No. 21135-1 Dear Ms. McNamara: Metropolitan Council staff (Council) has completed its review of the City of Lino Lakes' Local Surface Water Management Plan update (plan), dated June 2013. The plan provides an excellent foundation for the city to manage its water resources, and is consistent with Council policies, and the Council's Water Resources Management Policy Plan. The city, in cooperation with Rice Creek Watershed District, has completed a Resource Management Plan that divides the city into 15 resource management units (RMUs). These RMUs were used in formulating the plan, and one of the implementation activities is completion of detailed subwatershed management plans for the three highest priority RMUs. The Council commends Lino Lakes on its proactive approach and willingness to work with the watershed district to improve water management in the city. One minor suggestion to improve the plan would be to include a map clearly showing which areas of the city are included in Rice Creek Watershed District and Vadnais Lake Watershed Management Organization.

The plan review process has been protracted and the city wishes to work cooperatively with the RCWD to finalize this document so the city can move onto implementing the plan. Following the summary of each comment and response, proposed plan language, citing the comment, is attached for consideration and discussion at our meeting scheduled for Dec. 15, 2015. Comment from RCWD Dec, 2, 2015 Letter 1. Section 2.2, RCWD Management Plans and Rule F: RCWD Rules RMP -2 and RMP -3 have been consolidated into Rule F as ofJune 26, 2013 (effective date: July 1, 2013). Note that the consolidation of the RMP rules does not replace the need for permit review under District Rules C and F, as indicated in this section; the requirements of each rule must still be met. Response: Text updated on pages 5 and 6 of SWMP. See yellow highlighted sections below. Rice Creek Watershed District WMP The Rice Creek Watershed District Watershed Management Plan was last updated in November of 2014. The plan provides the guidance and implementation for the RCWD to manage the water and natural resources of the district into the foreseeable future extending through 2020. The Watershed Management Plan incorporates and builds on the previous district plans as well as numerous studies, inventories and assessments that have been completed in recent history. The plan is organized around eight management categories including: 1) Education, Data and Information; 2) Lakes; 3) Wetlands; 4) Drainage Systems and Waterways; 5) Excess Runoff; 6) District Facilities; 7) Open Space; and 8) Groundwater. The management categories provide the guide for plan implementation and district expenditures. The identified goals and polices established by the plan are implemented in part by the established Rules. The RCWD adopted Rule RMP -3, which governs approximately 95% of Lino Lakes, in 2009. This Rule is specifically focused on improving wetland functions and water quality through the District's permitting process. RCWD rule RMP -3 was consolidated into Rule F on June 26, 2013. RMP rules do not replace the need for permit review under District Rules C and F, the requirements of each rule must still be met. Emmons & Olivier Resources, Inc. 651 Hale Ave N. Oakdale, MN 55128 T/ 651.770.8448 www.eorinc.com page 1 of 5 Comment from RCWD Dec. 2, 2015 Letter 2. Section 2.2, Downstream Impairments: Rice Creek Watershed Management District should be corrected to Rice Creek Watershed District to avoid confusion that the management District is a subset of the District itself Response: Text updated on page 4 of SWMP. See yellow highlighted section below. Downstream Impairments: Middle Rice Creek Middle Rice Creek includes a stretch of river that extends from Baldwin Lake in Circle Pines to Long Lake in New Brighton. This stretch of Rice Creek is impaired for aquatic recreation and aquatic life caused by accelerated erosion and sedimentation. Middle Rice Creek flows into North Long Lake which is currently listed as impaired for excess nutrients (eutrophication). The impairment for North Long Lake was deferred by the MPCA due to extremely short water residence times in the lake, but a TMDL study for Middle Rice Creek will be completed as part of a future Watershed Restoration and Protection Plan. Lino Lakes will likely be listed as a regulated MS4 when this TMDL is developed. The Rice Creek Watershed District was recently awarded a BWSR Clean Water Fund grant. The grant is a targeted watershed demonstration grant with the ultimate goal of improving water quality in Long Lake. Grant funds will be used to stabilize the banks of Middle Rice Creek to reduce sediment and nutrient transport to Long Lake and for carp management and control for Long Lake. Comment from RCWD Dec, 2, 2015 Letter 3. Section 3.14, Intercommunity Flows (For the following comments, see Houston Engineering Technical Memo dated July 9, 2015) • Revision required in the first paragraph, sentence beginning with "The City is evaluating...', the improvements being evaluated by the city are not to the agricultural drainage system; rather the city is proposing an alternate outlet for build out conditions pursuant to the development of a Comprehensive Stormwater Management Plan (CSMP) under RCWD Rule C.5 (f). The City will develop with the RCWD an outlet with no adverse impacts to water quality and rate. • The wording "allowable flows" is a misnomer, as "allowable flows', does not necessarily mean any adverse impacts, which is the requirement of RCWD Rules and is determined by District engineer. • Lastly, a statement should be included indicating that the City intends to propose alternative standards (stormwater rules) to demonstrate no adverse impacts through the use of the proposed CSMP. Response: Text updated on page 61 of SWMP. See yellow highlighted section below. Emmons & Olivier Resources, Inc. - page 2 of 5 3.14. Intercommunity Flows The City of Lino Lakes is surrounded by several neighboring communities and receives watershed runoff from Blaine, Centerville, Columbus, Hugo, Shoreview, and White Bear Township. Rice Creek Watershed District (RCWD) has estimated the flows to its jurisdictional reaches and, as such, downstream communities, like Lino Lakes, are required to include their allocated flows in their future planning studies, so as to limit adverse impacts to their downstream neighbors of Centerville, Hugo and Circle Pines (Figure 28). The city is contemplating an alternate outlet for build -out conditions pursuant to the development of a Comprehensive Stormwater Management Plan (CSMP) under RCWD Rule C.5 (f). Intercommunity flows and modeled peak flow rates as provided by RCWD are shown below (Table 8). A detailed figure showing all stormwater ponds, streams, lakes and wetlands and structural pollution control devices, pipes, pipe sizes, and conveyances is provided as a larger map in Appendix E. Comment from RCWD Dec. 2, 2015 Letter 4. Section 4.1: • Section should also include discussion on the city's intent to adopt alternative standards or "special rules" within the ACD 55 drainage area to ensure no adverse impacts by limiting the rate of discharge to be less than existing conditions. The City should indicate their proposed Comprehensive Stormwater Management Plan (CSMP) as their approach to reaching these standards. Note that the District would adopt these standards as well. • Statement "Without mitigation, the inevitable impacts from the proposed development will be increased volume and increased peak flows of surface water runoff' is true locally, but not if served by ACD 55, which would restrict downstream flows. Please incorporate this into the text. Response: Text updated on page 63, 64 of SWMP. See yellow highlighted section below. 4.1 Water Rate & Quantity Issues Within the City of Lino Lakes, streams, lakes, and wetlands have been subjected to increased surface water runoff rates and volumes. Increased discharge rates and volumes have caused serious down -cutting and stream bank erosion in some areas. Increased runoff rates and volumes also contribute to flooding concerns and water quality concerns. These issues are likely to intensify in the future. The Metropolitan Council prepared and adopted a regional growth strategy that anticipates further urbanization of the City. In addition, transportation improvements in or near the City will facilitate and precipitate urbanization. The City of Lino Lakes is planning for development of 1,400 acres east of Peltier Lake, North of Main Street. Furthermore, the City of Hugo is planning for development of a 215 acre area; both areas are currently being drained by Anoka County Ditch 55 (ACD 55). Currently, precipitation events larger Emmons & Olivier Resources, Inc. - page 3 of 5 than 0.25 inches results in surface water ponding and surface water runoff within the ACD 55 drainage area (Houston Engineering, 2013b). Without -an alternative outlet or increased capacity development may be limited mitigation, the inevitable impacts from the proposed development will be increased volume and increased peak flows of surface water runoff within the ACD 55 drainage area. This would may exacerbate current flooding up stream in the ACD 55 system since ACD 55 restricts downstream flows and can only accommodate a small amount of flow. Sediment loads, and with it pollutants and contaminants, would also increase. Flow from the 215 -acre area within the City of Hugo may be up to 62 CFS during the 100 -year 24-hour storm. Additionally, 54 CFS will be generated from the 534 acre area within Lino Lakes that is currently served by ACD 55. The ACD 55 infrastructure currently reaches capacity at 1-2 CFS. As a result, the City of Lino Lakes is contemplating a new conveyance system and outlet structure to Peltier Lake from the 1,400 acre development area, which would be subject to review and approval by the RCWD via the CSMP. This may require the development of alternative standards (stormwater rules) to demonstrate no adverse impacts through the use of RCWD Comprehensive Stormwater Management Plan (CSMP) provisions.

Conceptual Lino Lakes Resource Management Unit (RMU) Corridor Configurations 81 City of Lino Lakes SWMP 1 December 20151 iv 1.0 Executive Summary The City of Lino Lakes (City) has retained its rural charm while developing a quality residential and commercial base. It is a bedroom community, with over 81 percent of its residents traveling at least 15 minutes to work each day. The City's landscape and environment is largely a function of its 15 lakes, widespread wetlands, two tributaries and Rice Creek. Eight lakes are located in or abutting the Chain of Lakes Regional Park and bisect the community. Approximately 40 percent of the City's total land area is comprised of lakes and natural wetlands. Lino Lakes' wetlands are widespread and these areas often help mitigate excess stormwater runoff peak flows while also creating challenges and opportunities for development. The City's lakes generally fall into three shoreland management categories: Natural Environment, Recreational, and General Development as classified by the MN DNR. The Natural Environment Lakes are primarily located in the Chain of Lakes areas and include Peltier, George Watch, Marshan, Rice, Ward, Sherman, Cedar, Amelia, Rondeau, and Wilkinson. Recreational lakes include Otter, Centerville, Reshanau, Baldwin. Bald Eagle Lake is a General Development Lake. Recreational uses include swimming, boating, fishing and water skiing. Centerville, Bald Eagle, Peltier and Reshanau are considered game fishing lakes. Centerville and Bald Eagle Lakes are managed fisheries and are stocked annually with Walleye and Muskellunge. Currently, there are a number of water quality issues that the City of Lino Lakes will need to address in partnership with the watershed management organizations, state agencies, the County and surrounding communities. Within the municipal boundary of the City of Lino Lakes, seven lakes within the Chain of Lakes (Baldwin, Centerville, George Watch, Marshan, Peltier, Reshanau, and Rice), Bald Eagle Lake, and two creek reaches (Clearwater and Hardwood) are currently listed on the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency's 2014 Draft 303d list of impaired waters. The eight lakes are listed for nutrient/eutrophication biological indicators affecting aquatic recreation uses, Clearwater and Hardwood Creeks are listed for fish and/or aquatic macroinvertebrate bioassessments affecting aquatic life, and Hardwood Creek is also listed for dissolved oxygen affecting aquatic life. There are also three lakes that have fish consumption impairments due to high mercury concentrations in fish: Peltier Lake, Otter Lake, and Bald Eagle Lake. A number of TMDL Reports and Implementation Plans have been approved by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA). The City of Lino Lakes has received wasteload allocations (WLA) for the TMDLs listed above. The City will need to continue to demonstrate progress towards meeting the WLAs. The City has been reissued a NPDES general permit in 2014. The City of Lino Lakes has taken an active role in natural resources management by conducting or participating in planning efforts that will allow for development in the context of preserving the environmental assets that make the City unique in the Twin Cities Metropolitan Area. These previous planning efforts lay the foundation for the issues, goals, policies and implementation activities identified in this local surface water management plan. Issues, goals and policies have been identified under the following categories in Chapter 4: 4.1 Water Rate & Quantity 4.2 Water Quality 4.3 Wetland Management 4.4 Floodplain Management 4.5 Public Ditch System City of Lino Lakes SWMP 1 December 201511 4.6 Groundwater Management 4.7 Natural Resources 4.8 Erosion and Sediment Control 4.9 Regulations, Permitting and Reporting 4.10 Monitoring, Maintenance and Inspection 4.11 Public Participation, Information and Education 4.12 Financing Consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan, some of the activities are organized on a geographic basis, using Resource Management Units (RMUs) following watershed boundaries as the best scale for planning and implementation. The Surface Water Management Plan implementation is organized into three categories: City -Wide Actions; Priority RMU Specific Actions and Other RMU Actions. City -Wide Actions include activities that apply on a broader scale while RMU Specific Actions include activities that had previously been identified for the three highest priority RMUs, based on development potential: Reshanau RMU Marshan RMU Clearwater Creek RMU Similarly, Other RMU Actions include activities that have previously been identified for the remaining RMUs. The Implementation and Capital Improvement Plan presented in this Plan includes estimated costs, scheduling, and project partners for each Issue Category. The City of Lino Lakes will determine which specific implementation activities to implement as part of the annual budgeting process. The Plan supports Anoka County in fulfillment of its responsibilities for ground water protection. Similarly, the City will support the RCWD and VLAWMO roles in wetland protection under the Minnesota Wetland Conservation Act, and in its administration of a construction permit program. Within this context, the Plan develops objectives and action items that will support these entities goals and policies. Finally, the Plan recognizes the need for flexibility and, therefore, establishes criteria for amendments. In addition, it calls for the development of annual work plans and five-year updates to address changing conditions, such as annexation or regulatory changes. City of Lino Lakes SWMP 1 December 20151 2 2.0 Introduction & Purpose The City of Lino Lakes is abundant with water and natural resources. The lakes, wetlands and associated uplands are arranged geographically throughout the City creating the potential to develop corridors that protect rare species, support fish and wildlife, and provide recreational opportunities. This Stormwater Plan provides policies and actions to support and improve the City's water and natural resources. 2.1. Purpose The purpose of this Plan is to guide the actions of the City of Lino Lakes with respect to the management and support of the City's water and natural resources. The Plan accomplishes this by bringing together background information and action items from a number of previously conducted studies and planning efforts. In addition, this Plan is intended to fulfill the requirements for Local Water Management Plans under MN Statute 103B and MN Rule 8410. Not only does this Plan meet regulatory requirements, it also reflects the resource-based vision of its residents and civic leaders. Since its last preparation of a Local Surface Water Management Plan, the City has been very proactive working with local partners to inventory existing resources, model future land use development scenarios, develop plans to improve water quality in its lakes, protect high quality resources and wetlands, and develop a multi -functional greenway corridor system. All of this work supports the need for activities that implement the Natural Resource Systems Plan and Resource Management Unit projects identified in the City's Comprehensive Plan and Resource Management Plan respectively. 2.2. Past Planning & Studies Past planning efforts and studies provide information used to support this Plan. These previous efforts are reflected in the land and water resources inventory and as the goals, policies, and actions. The following is a summary of each of these studies. Lino Lakes 2005 Surface Water Management Plan The 2005 Surface Water Management Plan presented a vision of high quality natural and water resources for the City. The plan's overall goal was to improve the quality of surface waters by delivering good quality storm water runoff to lakes and wetlands at acceptable rates and volumes, while reducing pollutant and sediment loadings and stream bed/stream bank erosion and water quality degradation. The plan focused on the implementation of the City's NPDES program to accomplish this goal. Lino Lakes 2010 Comprehensive Plan The Lino Lakes 2030 Comprehensive Plan is the City's plan for the future. It contains analyses of existing conditions, policy goals, long-range plans for utility and roadway infrastructure, and guides the development of land to the year 2030. In addition to an extensive community survey and citizen visioning process, the Lino Lakes Comprehensive Plan is unique due to the level of coordination and involvement with the Rice Creek Watershed District throughout the process. The City prepared its Comprehensive Plan in concert with the Rice Creek Watershed District's (RCWD) Resource Management Plan to balance growth and natural resource protection objectives. This coordinated effort resulted in new land development policies and implementation tools for low impact development, water resource management, growth management, and community design. The Comprehensive Plan establishes the policy foundations for ordinances regulating zoning, subdivision, and other official controls related to the use of land. City of Lino Lakes SWMP 1 December 20151 3 Hardwood Creek TMDL and Implementation Plan In 2002, Hardwood Creek was listed on Minnesota's 303(d) List of Impaired Waters, for biological impairment resulting from a low fish index of biological integrity (IBI) score. In 2004, Hardwood Creek was again listed on Minnesota's 303(d) List of Impaired waters for biological impairment, this time due to low Dissolved Oxygen (DO). Due to the fact that both Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) are intrinsically linked, this TMDL study encompasses both impairments. The TMDL study entailed analysis of existing data, intensive synoptic water quality and biological surveys of the creek, completion of the stressor identification process, watershed modeling, and the development of implementation strategies to meet the goals of the TMDLs. Approximately 4% of the 16,000 acres drainage area lies within Lino Lakes Peltier Lake and Centerville Lake TMDL The Peltier Lake and Centerville Lake TMDL address nutrient impairments in Peltier Lake and Centerville Lake. The EPA approved TMDL report (September 2013) states that nutrient load reductions of about 37% are needed for Centerville Lake and reductions of 79% to 85% are needed for Peltier Lake. Lino Lakes Chain of Lakes TMDL The Lino Lakes Chain of Lakes TMDL addresses nutrient impairments in George Watch Lake, Marshan Lake, Reshanau Lake, Rice Lake and Baldwin Lake. The EPA approved TMDL report (September 2013) states that nutrient load reductions ranging from 65% to 85% are needed to meet state standards. The report further states that to achieve state water quality standards in this chain of lakes, Peltier Lake must also meet its water quality goals. Bald Eagle Lake TMDL The Bald Eagle Lake TMDL addresses nutrient impairments of Bald Eagle Lake. The TMDL report indicates that nutrient load reductions of 38% to 91% are required for the lake to meet state standards. The public comment period for the Bald Eagle Lake TMDL ended on March 30, 2011. The TMDL was approved by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in June of 2012. Vadnais Lake Area WMO TMDL The Vadnais Lake Area WMO Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) and Protection Study addresses nutrient impairments of Wilkinson Lake among four other lakes within VLAWMO as well as the bacterial impairment of a creek in VLAWMO. The TMDL report was completed in July 2013 and provides wasteload allocations for the City of Lino Lakes with respect to Wilkinson Lake. Downstream Impairments: Middle Rice Creek Middle Rice Creek includes a stretch of river that extends from Baldwin Lake in Circle Pines to Long Lake in New Brighton. This stretch of Rice Creek is impaired for aquatic recreation and aquatic life caused by accelerated erosion and sedimentation. Middle Rice Creek flows into North Long Lake which is currently listed as impaired for excess nutrients (eutrophication). The impairment for North Long Lake was deferred by the MPCA due to extremely short water residence times in the lake, but a TMDL study for Middle Rice Creek will be completed as part of a future Watershed Restoration and Protection Plan. Lino Lakes will likely be listed as a regulated MS4 when this TMDL is developed. The Rice Creek Watershed District was recently awarded a BWSR Clean Water Fund grant. The grant is a targeted watershed demonstration grant with the ultimate goal of improving water quality in Long Lake. Grant funds will be used to stabilize the banks of Middle Rice Creek to reduce sediment and nutrient transport to Long Lake and for carp management and control for Long Lake. City of Lino Lakes SWMP 1 December 20151 4 Rice Creek Watershed District WMP The Rice Creek Watershed District Watershed Management Plan was last updated in November of 2014. The plan provides the guidance and implementation for the RCWD to manage the water and natural resources of the district into the foreseeable future extending through 2020. The Watershed Management Plan incorporates and builds on the previous district plans as well as numerous studies, inventories and assessments that have been completed in recent history. The plan is organized around eight management categories including: 1) Education, Data and Information; 2) Lakes; 3) Wetlands; 4) Drainage Systems and Waterways; 5) Excess Runoff; 6) District Facilities; 7) Open Space; and 8) Groundwater. The management categories provide the guide for plan implementation and district expenditures. The identified goals and polices established by the plan are implemented in part by the established Rules. The RCWD adopted Rule RMP -3, which governs approximately 95% of Lino Lakes, in 2009. This Rule is specifically focused on improving wetland functions and water quality through the District's permitting process. RCWD rule RMP -3 was consolidated into Rule F on June 26, 2013. RMP rules do not replace the need for permit review under District Rules C and F, the requirements of each rule must still be met. Vadnais Lake Area Watershed Management Organization WMP The Vadnais Lakes Area Water Management Organization (VLAWMO) Watershed Management Plan describes how the VLAWMO will address water management over the next 10 years. VLAWMO was organized by a Joint Powers Agreement in 1983 in response to the Minnesota Metropolitan Surface Water Act of 1982 (Minnesota Statutes {M.S.} Section 473.875 to 473.883). The first VLAWMO Watershed Management Plan was prepared, approved, and adopted in 1987. The second generation plan was prepared and adopted in 1995. That plan expired in 2006. This current Plan represents a third generation plan and will be effective from 2007 to 2016. In addition to complying with the aforementioned laws, this Plan meets the requirement of Minnesota Rules 8410, 8420, and 8750. The Plan includes management standards and procedures for addressing surface water, wetland, and groundwater issues. RCWD Resource Management Plan and Rule F The Lino Lakes Resource Management Plan (RMP) came about through a partnership between the Rice Creek Watershed District (RCWD) and the City of Lino Lakes. The RMP examines natural resources on a watershed basis to create a planning and regulatory framework that will protect and enhance those resources in the context of development pressures within the watershed. The RMP was developed in close coordination with state and federal permitting authorities and has been prepared to be consistent with both state and federal wetland regulations. The plan incorporates continuing maintenance of capacity within the public drainage systems in accordance with Minnesota Statutes Chapter 103E by reducing runoff volumes conveyed through the system. It constitutes a Comprehensive Wetland Management Plan under Minnesota Statutes §103G.2243 and was approved by the Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources in 2008. The RMP is intended that components of the plan be incorporated into Clean Water Act (CWA) Section 404 permit evaluations. The RMP also provided guidance to the City of Lino Lakes for ecologically -based land use decisions during their Comprehensive Plan and storm water management plan update process. The purpose of Rule F is to implement the Lino Lakes Resource Management Plan (RMP) adopted by the Rice Creek Watershed District in 2008. This Rule regulates activity both in wetland and on upland within the RMP area. It comprehensively addresses wetland and other water resource protection concerns and therefore replaces permit review under individual District Rules C (Stormwater Management) and F (Wetland Alteration). City of Lino Lakes SWMP 1 December 20151 5 JD4 Resource Management Plan and Rule F The Judicial Ditch 4 (JD4) RMP provides a watershed -based approach to wetland management that is consistent with RCWD goals. The approach uniquely addresses management in the context of wetland functions and the effects of anticipated future land use. The RMP was developed in close coordination with state and federal permitting authorities, and has been prepared to be consistent with both state and federal wetland regulations. It is intended that components of the plan be incorporated into CWA Section 404 permit evaluations. The approach is unique as a means to develop a comprehensive wetland management plan according to the State of Minnesota Wetland Conservation Act, because it not only provides existing wetland functions and values, but forecasts future functions in light of anticipated land use, and watershed -based approaches for no net loss of wetland function. Rule F provides standards intended to avoid land use effects that degrade wetland and aquatic resource quality. It also establishes the conditions for the RCWD to implement wetland permitting, wetland banking and volume banking programs in the JD4 RMP area. The stormwater volume banking program is a critical tool in meeting downstream TMDL goals and reducing flooding for this volume -constrained drainage system. Lino Lakes Special Area Management Plan and Programmatic General Permit The City of Lino Lakes and the RCWD have prepared a Special Area Management Plan (SAMP) for the subwatersheds within the City. The Army Corps of Engineers St. Paul District (Corps) intends to use the SAMP in its Clean Water Act (CWA). The purpose of the SAMP is to provide a watershed -based and conservation -based framework for aquatic resource management, particularly as development and redevelopment occur within the City. The SAMP addresses future water quality, quantity, flow rates and wetland function and condition in light of forecasted development and potential changes to surface and groundwater characteristics. As a result of the SAMP the CWA Section 404 regulated wetland alterations and impacts within the City of Lino Lakes will be covered by a Programmatic General Permit that streamlines the federal, state and local permitting process. City of Lino Lakes Storm Water Pollution Prevention Program (SWPPP) The City of Lino Lakes, as a municipal separate storm sewer system is required to implement and enforce a SWPPP as a part of compliance with National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Phase II program. The SWPPP is designed to reduce the discharge of pollutants from the City to the "maximum extent practicable" to protect water quality. The SWPPP must include Best Management Practices (BMP) that address six minimum control measures. Wellhead Protection Plan The City of Lino Lakes along with the Minnesota Department of Health and Anoka County developed a Wellhead Protection Plan that delineates drinking water supply management areas and wellhead protection areas. The Wellhead Protection Plan was approved by the Minnesota Depal tment of Health in 2005. 2.3. Plan Objectives & Summary The Plan defines goals and actions to guide the management of the City's lakes, wetlands, streams and natural resources. The Plan is intended to fulfill the requirements for a Local Surface Water Management Plan under MN Statute 103B and MN Rule 8410 and to address the Rice Creek Watershed District and Vadnais Lake Area Watershed Management Organization requirements for Local Plans. The Plan summarizes available information about the City's water and natural resources, defines goals and policies, and outlines an implementation plan. City of Lino Lakes SWMP 1 December 20151 6 Based on the City's commitment to collaborative planning this Plan articulates the future of water resource management in Lino Lakes. The City is fortunate to have invested in the science needed to determine sound resource management actions. In addition, the City established a civic engagement process to gain public support and developed strong civic leadership to implement the necessary regulatory mechanisms to ensure water resources are protected now and into the future. City of Lino Lakes SWMP 1 December 20151 7 3.0 Land & Water Resource Assessment 3.1. History Dakota Indians lived in what would later be called Centerville Township in the 1600s and 1700s. At that time, the area was covered with dense woodlands and many square miles of marshes, lakes and waterways. The natural habitat provided the Dakota with an abundant food supply, including wild rice and a wide variety of game and fish. They traveled the waterways by canoe, reaching the St. Croix River to the east and the Mississippi River to the west. The Dakotas abandoned their settlement in the late 1700s, but returned annually to harvest wild rice. The abundance of wildlife attracted many trappers and hunters in the early 1800s. The western part of the Township was known as the "German" settlement and was first settled in 1850, by F.W. Travis and was followed five years later by Henry Wenzel. The eastern part of the Township was known as the "French" settlement and its first settlers in 1852 were: Francis Lamott, F.X. LaValle, Peter Cardinal, Charles Peltier, Joseph Houle, A. Gervais, Oliver Dupre, Joseph Forcier, Paul and Oliver Peltier, Stephen Ward and L. Burkard. The downtown area of what came to be the City of Centerville was originally established as a "French" settlement in the middle part of the 1800s. In 1854, Charles Peltier built a sawmill on Clearwater Creek near the village. In the same year, settlers Peltier, LaValle and LaMotte laid out and platted the Town. They chose the name Centerville because of its central location from St. Paul, Stillwater, and Anoka. The City was officially established on August 11, 1857, when Minnesota was still a territory. In the 1950s, neighboring villages started annexing land away from Centerville Township. By 1955, to protect the boundaries and allow for the financing of public improvements, a committee of the Centerville Town Board began proceedings for incorporation from all of Centerville Township, except the Cities of Centerville and Circle Pines. They took the historic name Lino and because of the ten lakes within the area added Lakes and came up with the name Lino Lakes. On May 11, 1955, the new Village of Lino Lakes was incorporated. At incorporation, the new Village was comprised of 21,000 acres of land and 1,800 citizens. In 1972, the State Legislature passed a law changing all Minnesota villages to cities, hence the current status of the City of Lino Lakes. Today, the City has a population of over 20,216 people and is rapidly developing. The current City location is shown in Figure 1.

Resource Management Framework The City of Lino Lakes laid out a framework in the Comprehensive Plan for the management of the resources within the City. The framework provides a unified systems approach to natural resource management that brings together the following major components: The City's Surface Water Management Plan The Rice Creek Watershed District/Lino Lakes Resource Management Plan (RMP) The City's Parks, Natural Open Space/Greenways, and Trail System Plan The framework is organized around a number of subwatershed-based resource management units (RMUs). The RMP divided the city into 15 distinct RMUs. These units provide specific resource management strategies that address the unique conditions of each area (Figure 2). The intent of implementing the RMU recommendations is to achieve the aquatic resource management goals of the RMP and achieve a watershed -based approach to flood control and protecting high quality wetlands.

Climate & Precipitation The climate of Lino Lakes is similar to the climate for the overall Seven County Metropolitan Area which exhibits the typical characteristics of continental climates. Areas with continental climates have winters with at least one month below 32° F and at least three months of temperatures above 50° F. Regions with continental climates are characterized by winter temperatures cold enough to support snow cover from late fall to early spring, and relatively moderate precipitation that occurs mostly in the summer months. Climate data was collected by the National Weather Service Cooperative at the Minneapolis -St. Paul International Airport (Station 215435) and supplemented with data from the St. Paul station (station 217377) to fill gaps in the snowfall record. The data summary of precipitation, snowfall, and temperature presented in Table 1 covers the 30 years between 1981 and 2010. The average annual temperature is 46.2 degrees F. Average annual precipitation is 30.6 inches, including approximately 51.6 inches of snowfall (Table 1). Daily climate data and other climate summaries are available on the Minnesota Climatology Working Group website at climate.umn.edu. Table 1.

The recurrence interval is a measure of the probability of occurrence of the storm event. For example, a rainfall event of 5.9 inches has a 1% probability of occurring in any given year which is expressed as once in every 100 years, the 3.6 inch rainfall event has a 20% probability of occurring in any given year which is expressed as once in every 5 years. These U.S. Precipitation Frequency Estimates for the Midwest are currently being updated (Atlas 14 - Draft) by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the National Weather Service (NWS). Once this study is complete, it is anticipated that the precipitation for the recurrence intervals illustrated in Table 2 will be modified. This project is expected to be completed in 2013. Updated information on rainfall patterns and rainfall intensity may require modification of City ordinances and policies to ensure that development and redevelopment account for the changes in rainfall patterns and the resulting water management needs. Policies and ordinances may also need modifications to ensure that affected natural resources are properly protected. City of Lino Lakes SWMP 1 December 2015112 Table 2.

Topography The City's hydrologic system includes streams, lakes and wetlands. The City is characterized by gently rolling topography interspersed with lakes, streams, floodplains, various judicial and county ditches, and wetlands that are primarily a result of glaciation. This is due to its location in the North Central Hardwood Forest Eco -region that can be sub -divided into three geomorphic settings: the McGrath Till Plain, the Twin Cities Formation and the Anoka Sand Plain. This system is typical of a glaciated area with outwash plains and terminal moraines. The thinly spread glacial drift is characterized by circular level -topped hills with smooth side slopes averaging between 2-3% grades. Ground surface elevations range from 850 to 950 feet above mean sea level (MSL). Lacking a uniform drainage pattern, many small streams end in lakes or depressions. Low-lying areas contain closed basins with numerous lakes and peat bogs. Water table levels normally occur within three to ten feet of the surface. All ground water levels vary seasonally. 3.5. Geology Surficial Geology The surficial geology of Lino Lakes is composed of 2 distinct areas. The City is divided almost evenly between portions of the Anoka Sandplain and an area of loamy till typical of the Eastern Saint Croix Moraine. Organic deposits are present throughout both areas (Figure 3). The northwestern portion of the City is considered to be part of the Anoka Sandplain geomorphic area. The Anoka Sandplain is an outwash plain formed during the retreat of the Grantsburg Lobe. The material making up the plain is principally fine sand. Depressions are common in the plain and were formed when isolated blocks of ice later melted. They are now filled with peat deposits or are marshes and lakes. The landscape within the Anoka Sandplain is generally considered to be a gently undulating plain. Water tables are near the surface in depressions and from 2 to 10 or more feet deep in rises. The southeastern portion of the City is composed of New Ulm loamy till. This area was formed by the Grantsburg sublobe of the Des Moines lobe and is characterized by gently rolling terrain (Figure 3). Bedrock Geology Three bedrock layers exist beneath the study area; Mt. Simon -Jordan, Prairie Du Chien and St. Peter - Platteville. The Mt. Simon -Jordan was formed during the Upper Cambrian and parallels the same extent as the Anoka Sandplain. The Prairie Du Chien and St. Peter -Platteville areas are from the Ordovician period and parallel the glacial till in the southeast portion of the City (Figure 4).

Soils The City of Lino Lakes is located within the Anoka Sandplain ecological subsection of central Minnesota. The Anoka Sandplain is a 1,875 square mile glacial outwash plain that includes portions of 13 Minnesota counties, and is centered on most of Anoka, Isanti, and Sherburne counties. The Anoka Sandplain was created and shaped by the last major glacial episode in Minnesota — the Wisconsin glaciation — between 35,000 and 10,000 years ago. The City of Lino Lakes is located within the historic lake bottom of Glacial Lake Fridley which formed from glacial ice -melt water circa 12,000 years ago. The release of glacial melt water from Glacial Lake Fridley created deep, broad, irregular troughs within the glacial lake bottom. These troughs formed the Rice Creek Chain of Lakes and associated wetland complexes of present day, as well as numerous other lake chains to the northwest and southeast of Lino Lakes. The glacial history of Lino Lakes resulted in complex patterns of surficial geology, hydrology, and soil associations that remain as important influences on development, agricultural patterns, and natural resources conservation opportunities within the City. The upland soils of Lino Lakes are typically sandy, moderately to well drained, and nutrient poor. Wetland soils are typically shallow to deep organic peat deposits over sand or saturated sands, which occur within complex networks of braided depressions throughout the City's landscape. The southeastern most edge of the City includes a small portion of a glacial till. The upland and wetland soils of this landscape inclusion are comprised of fine -textured silt loams, loams, and clays that are poorly drained. Topography throughout the City is generally flat to slightly undulating, and the regional groundwater table is typically shallow below the soil surface. Soil types commonly found in Lino Lakes have been grouped into categories (as illustrated in Figure 5) based on the Hydrologic Soil Group (HSG), or runoff potential from precipitation. This classification describes the hydrologic features of the soils and is derived from vegetation, soils composition, and slope. Combined hydrologic soil groups (e.g. A/D, B/D, and C/D) represent soils that can be classified by two labels depending on their drained status. The first letter indicates the soil's properties in a drained setting and the second letter indicates that same soil's properties in an undrained area. Table 3 summarizes the four hydrologic soil groups: Table 3. Soil hydrologic groups Hydrologic Soil Group (HSG) Description A Soils having high infiltration rates when thoroughly wet (low runoff potential). Deep, well drained to excessively drained sand or gravelly sand. B Soils having a moderate infiltration rate when thoroughly wet. Moderately deep or deep, moderately well drained or well drained with moderately to moderately coarse texture. C Soils having a slow infiltration rate when thoroughly wet. Soils have a layer that impedes the downward movement of water or soils of moderately fine texture or fine texture. D Soils having very slow rates of infiltration when thoroughly wet (high runoff potential). Soils consists of clays with high shrink -swell potential, soils have a permanent high water table, soils that have a claypan or clay layer at or near the surface and soils that are shallow over nearly impervious materials. Urban Land Areas of development that are covered by asphalt, concrete, and buildings. Data from Natural Resource Conservation Service, 1977.

Figure 6 provides a general categorization into five levels of infiltration potential, ranging from high to low. These levels were assigned by assessing soils, make-up of the sub- surface geology, estimated content of fine material in the soil profile, and depths to seasonally high water table. The City of Lino Lakes is identified as having high infiltration potential in the western portion of the City with medium to low infiltration potential in the eastern portion of the City.

Groundwater Resources The City is located over very substantial ground water reserves. The major aquifers include: glacial sand and gravel, the Prairie-du-Chien/Jordan aquifer, and the Mt. Simon -Hinckley aquifer. The Prairie-du- Chien/Jordan aquifer supplies much of the ground water pumped in the Twin City metropolitan area, while the Mt. Simon -Hinckley aquifer provides a smaller portion. Bedrock ground water in the northern portion of the Watershed District generally flows toward the west; in the southern portion, the ground water flows to the southwest. Ground water recharge areas are not well known in the Rice Creek Watershed District (RCWD). Glacial sand and gravel aquifers are generally recharged locally. The Mt. Simon -Hinckley aquifer is recharged outside the watershed. It has generally been documented that the Prairie -du -Chien aquifer does recharge within the watershed. Additional information on groundwater resources is available for Anoka County in their Water Resources Management Report (2009). In addition, the Department of Natural Resources' Minnesota Geologic Survey prepared a Regional Hydrogeologic Assessment for the Anoka Sandplain (1993), an area which includes Lino Lakes, and is working on an Anoka County Geologic Atlas. In 2009 the RCWD completed a Groundwater Planning & Management Program; the report identifies information such as groundwater contours, recharge and discharge areas, groundwater dependent natural resources, and areas where infiltration is not recommended. The report indicates that groundwater flows from the southeast and northwest toward the lakes in the center of the City (Figure 7) and similarly that the Chain of Lakes are groundwater discharge points with surrounding areas of recharge (Figure 8). The identified groundwater dependent natural resources include areas around Rondeau and Peltier Lakes (Figure 9). In addition, a few locations within Lino Lakes are identified as areas where infiltration is not recommended unless precautions are taken to protect the City's drinking water supply. These areas are located around public well fields. The City's Wellhead Protection Plan includes Wellhead Protection Areas, Drinking Water Supply Management Areas, a Vulnerability Assessment, Potential Contaminant Source Management Strategy, an Evaluation Program and an Alternative Water Supply/Contingency Plan. The Drinking Water Supply Management Area includes guidelines related to stormwater infiltration. The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) has an active ground water monitoring system in and near the City. The purpose of the MPCA monitoring program is to characterize the physical, chemical, bacteriological, and organic properties of each water source. Data is available to the public through the MPCA's Environmental Data Access system. The Metropolitan Council Water Supply Plan (2010) indicates that with expected population growth, the aquifers in the Twin Cities metropolitan area will show lower aquifer water levels, but will still have the water supply and recharge capability needed to meet expected water uses. The model completed for the study indicates that aquifer water levels may decrease by about 100 feet in outer ring suburbs, especially in the south metro. The Anoka County Water Resources Management Report (2009) summarizes a 2007 Metropolitan Council report and indicates that surface water features in Anoka County are more likely to be impacted by groundwater drawdown than in other areas.

Surface Water Resources Open water features are a significant land cover type in the City, totaling over 3,000 acres, or roughly 14% of the surface area. The largest portion of this cover type (96%) is represented by the large, natural ice block lakes forming the Chain of Lakes and other outlier lakes, along with smaller natural ponds. A number of streams and creeks also flow through the City. Within the municipal boundary of the City of Lino Lakes, seven lakes within the Chain of Lakes (Baldwin, Centerville, George Watch, Marshan, Peltier, Reshanau, and Rice), Bald Eagle Lake, and two creek reaches (Clearwater and Hardwood) are currently listed on the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency's 2014 Draft 303d list of impaired waters (Table 4, Figure 12). The eight lakes are listed for nutrient/eutrophication biological indicators affecting aquatic recreation uses, Clearwater and Hardwood Creeks are listed for fish and/or aquatic macroinvertebrate bioassessments affecting aquatic life, and Hardwood Creek is also listed for dissolved oxygen affecting aquatic life. There are also three lakes that have fish consumption impairments due to high mercury concentrations in fish: Peltier Lake, Otter Lake, and Bald Eagle Lake. In 2009, the MPCA completed a plan to address this mercury impairment. With substantial stakeholder input, the MPCA prepared a plan to reduce mercury releases in Minnesota. This plan, the Implementation Plan for Minnesota's Statewide Mercury Total Maximum Daily Load, describes actions Minnesota will take to meet water -quality standards for mercury. TMDL reports have been written for the eight impaired lakes with nutrient impairments. The Bald Eagle Lake nutrient TMDL was approved by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) on June 11, 2012, and an implementation plan has been completed and approved by the MPCA. The public comment period for the TMDL reports for the other seven lakes ended on February 29, 2012. The TMDLs for these lakes were approved by the EPA in September of 2013. The implementation plans for two separate TMDL reports were drafted for these lakes: Peltier Lake and Centerville Lake TMDL, and Lino Lakes Chain of Lakes Nutrient TMDL. The TMDL for the Clearwater Creek impairment has not yet been started. It will be part of a future Watershed Restoration and Protection Plan, to be completed by the MPCA in conjunction with local partners. The TMDL for the two impairments on Hardwood Creek is complete and was approved by the EPA on July 10, 2009 (Hardwood Creek Impaired Biota (Fish) and Dissolved Oxygen TMDL can be found on MPCA's website). The implementation plan for these two impairments is also complete and was approved by the MPCA in 2009. There is a TMDL study under way for bacteria (E. coli and fecal coliform) impairments along portions of the Upper Mississippi River and its tributaries, including Rice Creek. Lino Lakes will be part of that TMDL study. There is also a TMDL underway for Wilkinson Lake as part of the Vadnais Lakes Area WMO TMDL and Protection Study. The City of Lino Lakes received wasteload allocations (WLA) for one or more of the TMDLs listed below (Figure 11). The WLAs were approved by the EPA; the City has demonstrated progress towards meeting the WLAs. The MPCA has reissued the General Permit for Small MS4s, which identified the process for demonstrating progress towards meeting the WLA.

Of the City's lakes, nine of them (Baldwin, Centerville, George Watch, Marshan, Peltier, Reshanau, Rice, Sherman, and Ward) are located within or abutting the Chain of Lakes Regional Park. The City lakes generally fall into three shoreland management categories: Natural Environment, Recreational and General Development. The Natural Environment lakes are primarily located in the Chain of Lakes area and include Peltier, George Watch, Marshan, Rice, Ward, Sherman, Cedar, Amelia, Rondeau and Wilkinson. Recreational lakes include Otter, Centerville, Reshanau, and Baldwin. Bald Eagle Lake is a General Development Lake. They are used for a variety of recreational uses such as swimming, boating, fishing and water skiing. Centerville, Bald Eagle, Peltier and Reshanau Lakes are considered game fishing lakes. A metric used to evaluate lake water quality is the level of eutrophication, the enrichment of lakes due to excess nutrients such as phosphorus. Although phosphorus is the dominant factor, as both phosphorus and nitrogen concentrations increase in lake water, algae blooms increase. In the extreme, blue-green or scum- foilning algae can render a lake unusable for recreation. The degree of eutrophication is characterized by gradations of oligotrophic and eutrophic levels. Oligotrophic lakes have very low nutrient levels, high City of Lino Lakes SWMP 1 December 20151 26 oxygen concentrations, little algae growth, and clear water. Eutrophic lakes have high nutrient levels, low oxygen concentrations, high algae growth, and murky water. Sources of phosphorus to lakes include the atmosphere, stormwater runoff, and internal cycling. The atmosphere contains phosphorus in dust and other particles transported into it by wind and re -deposited by rain and snow events. Stormwater runoff also carries phosphorus. Generally, as land use intensifies and the percentage of hard (impervious) surfaces increase, the amount of phosphorus in runoff also increases. Internal cycling is an important factor in most lakes. This is the process where phosphorus that had settled to the lake bottom seeps back into the water during the summer, the time when nuisance algae are problematic. A summary of available data from the 2014 Rice Creek Watershed District Watershed Management Plan for each lake is provided below. Where noted, additional data was presented from the Department of Natural Resources' LakeFinder and the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency's Environmental Data Access system.

Peltier, Centerville, Bald Eagle, and Otter Lakes are all capable of being directly affected by withdrawals for the purpose of supplying water to the St. Paul system. The first water supply system to serve the City of St. Paul was constructed by a private company in 1868- 70. The company operated under a State of Minnesota Charter dated 1857, and was known as the St. Paul Water Company. In 1884, a 72 -inch brick conduit was constructed to deliver water from Vadnais Lake. Shortly thereafter, connection was made to Sucker Lake and Pleasant Lake, which are a short distance north of Vadnais Lake. In 1889, the source of supply was extended to Baldwin Lake. In 1894, extensions were made to Otter Lake. Arrangements were made to receive the overflow from Bald Eagle Lake. In 1914-1915, a dam was constructed at the north end of Bald Eagle to impound additional water. Some water is available from the overflow from Bald Eagle Lake during high water periods. Bald Eagle Lake has a surface area of approximately 1,040 acres. When water in Bald Eagle Lake is higher than the culvert inverts at the north end of the lake, water overflows into Clearwater Creek, which drains into the Rice Creek Chain of Lakes. During normal periods of high water levels, water is taken from Otter Lake and by gravity flow is conveyed through a concrete conduit to the Centerville conduit and thence to Deep Lake. A pumping station was constructed in 1896, at Centerville Lake, to pump water from this source into the Chain of Lakes System. Over the years a number of deep wells were drilled to meet emergency conditions, but have since been abandoned. In 1902, a 150 -foot wide dam was built across Rice Creek at the outlet of Peltier Lake. A conduit connects Peltier Lake to Centerville Lake. Water from the Mississippi River was first taken to augment the supply in 1925, by means of an intake and pumping station on the river in Fridley. Approximately 75% of the water source is from the Mississippi River and is pumped into the Vadnais Chain of Lakes. Wells drawing from the Prairie du Chien -Jordan are used to augment flows to the water treatment plant when needed. The Rice Creek Chain of Lakes and Otter and Bald Eagle Lakes are used as a reserve supply. The St. Paul Water Utility Water Inflow System is depicted on Figure . City of Lino Lakes The City of Lino Lakes has five municipal wells in the city to provide a public water supply. The City's wellhead protection and drinking water supply management area plans outline protections for the wells and the water supply area. Other Appropriations There are 10 other active water appropriations permitted by the DNR within the City of Lino Lakes. These include crop irrigation, sod farms, athletic fields, nursery, and institutional uses of groundwater and surface water.

St. Paul Water Utility Area [from 2005 Lino Lakes Surface Water Management Plan] City of Lino Lakes SWMP 1 December 20151 31 Creeks The City's river and stream resources are characterized by three major stream systems: Rice Creek, and two of its tributaries, Hardwood Creek and Clearwater Creek. A network of ditches and stormsewer drain to these streams; the ditch and stormsewer system is discussed in Section 3.7. Rice Creek, Hardwood Creek and Clearwater Creek join at Peltier Lake with a combined drainage area of 70 square miles (44,800 acres). Hardwood Creek, with a total drainage area of 28 square miles, originates in Washington County's Rice Lake at a normal lake elevation of 920 feet and flows to Peltier Lake at an approximate elevation of 884 feet. Clearwater Creek originates in White Bear Lake and flows into Bald Eagle Lake, which has a normal elevation of about 884 feet. From there, it proceeds to Centerville Lake and then to Peltier Lake. Two creek reaches are listed in the 2014 Minnesota Pollution Control Agency Draft 303d list of impaired waters. The reach of Clearwater Creek between Bald Eagle Lake and Peltier Lake was listed in 2002 for fish bioassessments, and in 2006 for aquatic macroinvertebrate assessments. A TMDL for these assessments will be conducted during 2013-2016 to determine the stressors for these impairments. The reach of Hardwood Creek between Hwy 61 and Peltier Lake was listed in 2002 for fish bioassessments. Based on a TMDL started in 2003, this listing was updated as a dissolved oxygen stressor on aquatic life in 2004. Wetlands Wetlands are habitats where water saturation is the primary controlling factor of the environment and associated plant and animal life. Wetlands occur between upland and aquatic environments where the water table is at or near the surface of the land, or where the land is covered by shallow water that may be up to six feet deep. The single feature that most wetlands share is soil or substrate that is at least periodically saturated with or covered by water. This saturation creates physiological conditions requiring special adaptations by plants and animals for life in an oxygen -deprived (anaerobic) environment. Lino Lakes' wetlands are widespread and these areas often help mitigate excess storm water runoff peak flows. Wetlands provide numerous direct benefits depending on the type of wetland and the season. Examples of such benefits are: Floodwater storage and retention. Snowmelt or storm water may be temporarily stored in wetlands. This, in turn, slows the rate of water outflow from the wetland compared to inflow to the wetland by extending lower outflow flow rates over a longer period of time. Nutrient assimilation. Wetland plants absorb nutrients during their growth and development that results in cleaner water leaving the wetland than came into it. Sediment entrapment. Sediments have time to settle out when the flow of water is slowed down, as previously described. Ground water recharge. Some wetlands collect and retain surface waters in ground water recharge areas. Low flow augmentation. A benefit of flow attenuation is that the steadier water outflow rates can reduce the impacts of short-term precipitation deficiencies in downstream rivers and streams. Shoreland anchoring and erosion control. Wetland vegetation can reduce shoreline and bank erosion by anchoring the soil from the forces of wave action. Fish and wildlife habitat. Many species of fish and wildlife spend part or all of their life cycle in wetland habitats used for breeding, feeding, cover protection, or brood rearing. City of Lino Lakes SWMP 1 December 20151 32 Aesthetics and recreation. This includes scenic value in urban and suburban environments. Wetlands also provide a place for people to observe nature. Hunters, birders, and fisherman frequent wetlands. Education. Wetlands provide an outdoor classroom for learning. A number of comprehensive wetland studies have been conducted to guide the management of wetlands and their benefits within Lino Lakes. The two key studies are the Lino Lakes Special Area Management Plan (SAMP, 2010) and the Lino Lakes Resource Management Plan (RMP, 2008). These two studies provide the foundation for the management of wetlands, surface water, floodplains, and greenway resources within the City of Lino Lakes. The SAMP and RMP establish Resource Management Units and standards to support the wetland resources of the City under future development in a manner that integrates with floodplain management, stormwater management, and greenway management. A few key points from the plans are highlighted below: The City's wetlands may be impacted by nutrient loading, however, standards for assessing nutrient impairment of wetlands have not yet been fully established by federal or state agencies. Nutrient load modeling developed for the TMDL projects generated qualitative ranking of subcatchment nutrient loading (high, medium, or low). The results of the vegetation quality ranking and nutrient ranking are shown in Figure . There is no relationship between vegetation quality and catchment phosphorus loading. The phosphorus loading may be indirectly related to the vegetative quality. The loading information is useful for setting priorities on protecting wetland condition in Lino Lakes. It is important to know which areas are under the greatest stress from nutrient loading, because even without a direct relationship between vegetative integrity and phosphorus, the wetland stressors may be indirectly related to phosphorus loading. Any wetland restoration plan, regardless of location, examines the contributing catchments for their specific loading (both nitrogen and phosphorus), the loading sources, and the vegetation quality. The City contains numerous fully and partially drained wetlands that provide the greatest opportunity for wetland restoration activities. Wetland restoration projects function to retain and treat stormwater and at the same time enhance natural resources, all of which were determined to be of highest priority for the citizens of Lino Lakes according to a wetland values survey. As specified by the Minnesota Routine Assessment Methodology (MNRAM), the factors evaluated when considering a wetland for restoration include the number of nearby wetlands, hydrologic restoration potential without flooding structures, number of landowners involved, size, potential for a naturalized buffer, and restoration design complexity. Wetlands ranked high and medium are considered high priority for restoration (Figure 5, also see Appendix A, RMP, Figure 9 — Partially Drained or Impaired Wetlands). Local wetland values such as Lino Lakes' interest in Tamarack Swamp restoration was also used in the evaluation.

The City has a Floodplain Ordinance in accordance with Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and Department of Natural Resources (DNR) requirements to minimize potential losses due to periodic flooding along these areas. FEMA updated the Flood Insurance Rate Maps for the Lino Lakes area in 2012. Hydrologic and hydraulic modeling has been conducted throughout the City for many previous efforts (Appendix A). The most recent and detailed modeling was completed in 2012 by RCWD. This updated hydrologic and hydraulic model was provided to FEMA to assist in floodplain studies. A previous XP- SWMM (Storm Water Management Model) model update was completed in 2007 in support of the Lino Lakes Resource Management Plan (RMP). This model is capable of completing multi-year continuous simulation for the years 1999-2003 or event simulation depending on the needs of the user. Most ponds, water bodies, and wetlands within Lino Lakes have been explicitly modeled as a live storage volume with an outlet allowing a high resolution of results and analysis. The hydrologic inputs to the model were based on 2 -foot contours, satellite -based estimation of impervious surface area and Green-Ampt infiltration methodology. The majority of the channels and ponds were surveyed with some use of as - built drawings on newer developments. Upstream inputs from major tributaries were input directly into the XP-SWMM model using the regional HydroCAD model for event based simulations and a water balance approach for continuous simulation for the years 1999-2003. The model can be used for the simulation of any synthetic rainfall/runoff event up to the 100 -year 24-hour event. Larger events are possible but have not been tested. The RMP identifies specific areas of flooding concern under a full buildout scenario and implementation of RMP 2.8 -inch infiltration standards. The 2.8 -inch infiltration standard is no longer included in RCWD rules. The study identified areas where the road would be overtopped, where less than 1 foot of freeboard is expected, and where a pond overflows under a 100 -year event (Figure 17). In addition, the RMP identifies flooding concerns by Resource Management Unit (Table 5). City of Lino Lakes SWMP 1 December 20151 36 a - Data Spwces.

Stormwater Management System Hydrologic boundaries do not stop at the municipal borders and orderly coordination between related municipalities is addressed in the Lino Lakes Resource Management Plan (RMP). Hydrologic boundary based, Resource Management Units (RMU) identified in the RMP are the basis for neighbor community coordination of shared water resources. The hydrologic modeling encompasses true watershed catchments even where the boundaries are outside the municipal boundaries. The modeling covers small portions of land area within North Oaks, Hugo, and Blaine, as well as all of Centerville. Ditches The State of Minnesota has established a set of rules to provide an opportunity for individual landowners to obtain drainage and to minimize the effects to downstream landowners. There are a variety of County Ditches (Nos. 8, 10, 22, 25, 32, 47, and 55) and one Judicial Ditch (No. 3) that run through the City. Both County and Judicial Ditches are managed the same way. The naming is different because the systems were established under different protocols. The majority of the drainage system was constructed during the late 1800's and early 1900's. Over the decades, much of the system was minimally maintained by different ditch authorities. Today, many ditches function as straightened creeks within a partially or marginally drained wetland slough or riparian corridor. The major public ditch systems in Lino Lakes are: Anoka County Ditch (ACD) 10-22-32 ACD 25 ACD 55 ACD 72 Counties have authority for managing drainage systems (under Minnesota Statute § 106A) within a County, or a Joint County Drainage Authority for drainage systems that are within two or more counties. Counties have the option to delegate authority over drainage systems to watershed districts, where they exist. Counties, when acting as the drainage authority, may establish, improve or repair drainage systems and similar activities related to drainage. However, these authorities are regulated by a variety of Federal and State agencies. In Lino Lakes, Anoka and Ramsey Counties have delegated the jurisdiction over all public ditches to the Rice Creek Watershed District (RCWD). Thus, the RCWD is the ditch authority for the purposes of implementing Minnesota Statute § 103E (Drainage Law). The VLAWMO is a ditch authority for Ramsey County Ditches 13 and 14, however, the VLAWMO manages the ditch system as a stormwater system under Minnesota Statute § 103B.227, subdivision 7, not as a ditch system under Minnesota Statute §103E (Figure 19). There are three different types of drainage projects: establishment, improvements and repairs. An establishment refers to the original construction of the drainage ditch. An improvement will institute a change from the original construction, which usually means expanding the ditches' capacity. Repairs are intended to maintain a drainage ditch to its original construction or as subsequently improved. State law has established extensive procedures to manage these activities. Projects are begun by a petition brought forward by landowners wishing either a ditch be established, improved or repaired. Counties can initiate repairs if an inspection reveals that work is necessary. State law requires an annual inspection of each drainage system, public hearings, appointing of "viewers" to determine benefits and damages of the proposed project, and engineering reports. City of Lino Lakes SWMP 1 December 20151 40 If the project is determined to be feasible and to have greater benefits than damages, it can be allowed to proceed to construction. The costs of the project are assessed to landowners, within the drainage area of the ditch, who are determined to benefit from the project. The public ditch systems are an integral part of the RMP, and the RMP serves as the ditch repair alternative for each system. Updated ditch maps and system data were developed based on field surveys and historic records (see Appendix A, RMP, Figure 3). Profile and repair reports have been completed for all of these ditch systems, and the Resource Management Unit (RMU) recommendations integrate ditch repair implementation projects. Stormsewer and Stormwater Treatment Features The City's stormsewer network and catalogued treatment devices and structures, as available in GIS, are included in the summary map for reference. The City is also actively updating their infrastructure database and will be adding information, such as pond normal water levels (NWL) and high water levels (HWL) in the future, but was not comprehensively available at this time. The RCWD also has hydrologic and hydraulic information available for the system and should be contacted if that information is needed. The numbering system and level of resolution of the RCWD data and modeling was not consistent with City information, so the RCWD information should be obtained directly from the RCWD.

Land Use The City of Lino Lakes Comprehensive Plan outlines existing and planned future land use for the City. The Comprehensive Plan indicates that the City anticipates growth in upcoming years. The expected growth has the potential to impact water and natural resources within the City. The City has anticipated these changes and developed the Lino Lakes Special Area Management Plan (SAMP) (2010) and the Lino Lakes Resource Management Plan (RMP) to evaluate and respond to the changes. The Land Use Plan additionally incorporates the City's Parks, and the Natural Open Space/Greenways and Trail System Plan to manage and protect community resources. Growth in Lino Lakes is shaped by a variety of community features, including the Rice Creek Chain of Lakes Regional Park Reserve, Interstates I -35W and I -35E, regional sewer interceptors, and an abundance of wetlands and other natural resource areas scattered throughout the City. The Rice Creek Chain of Lakes Regional Park Reserve runs the entire length of the City, from the southwest to the northeast corner. This area provides important ecological and recreational benefits to the community. However; it also divides the City in half. Connectivity between the eastern and western areas of the City is an issue. The park reserve will shape growth, as it represents a large portion of the City's land area that will be permanently preserved as open space. Additionally, because the park reserve divides the City in two halves, development patterns and growth pressure may differ on either side of the park reserve. In addition to the park reserve, the presence of Interstates I -35W and I -35E will also affect the City's growth, as demand for available commercial and industrial land with convenient transportation access increases. In particular, a potential future interchange on I -35E will facilitate development in the northeast quadrant of the City. Growth in Lino Lakes will also be shaped by the location of regional sewer interceptors. The City contains three general growth areas based on sewer interceptors in the northwest, northeast, and southern half of the City. Development patterns extend from each growth area. Lastly, the large number of wetlands within the City will shape growth by limiting the amount of developable land within the City. Protection and management of these resources was a critical component of the comprehensive plan process. The Comprehensive Plan provides additional background information on the development of the Land Use Plan. Existing Land Use As summarized in the Comprehensive Plan, Lino Lakes contains a variety of uses including several business parks and commercial areas, large agricultural tracts, suburban and rural residential development, the Town Center, and a large park reserve. The City also contains many wetlands and upland natural areas distributed across the City, and the Rice Creek Chain of Lakes. Despite its proximity to the Minneapolis -St. Paul Central Business District and the presence of two interstate highways, the City maintains a vast amount of agriculture and rural areas. Nearly 50 percent of the City's existing land use consists of agriculture or rural residential areas. These areas will capture a majority of new growth in the City, and have been guided in the future land use plan to accommodate future development. The existing land uses in the City are displayed in Figure 20. City of Lino Lakes SWMP 1 December 20151 44 C 1 1 r�rr�rul :i =f 1I I> --40. ,,, i "Ira!

As part of the metropolitan region, the City is required to accommodate a portion of the region's forecasted growth. As Lino Lakes grows, it is anticipated that development patterns will change in many areas of the City. As summarized in the Comprehensive Plan, a key component of developing the future land use plan was analysis of a wide variety of natural resource information. This included the location of high priority wetlands and other natural resource areas, drainage patterns, and soil suitability information, to identify environmentally sensitive areas and areas most suitable for development. This natural resource information was used to guide decisions regarding future land uses and intensities in Lino Lakes. Based on the development suitability information, a full build -out future land use plan was developed (Figure 21). The Metropolitan Council requires that communities plan for growth up to 2030 in their current comprehensive plans. Areas that will not be developed until after 2030 are designated on the 2030 future land use map as Urban Reserve (Figure 22). Although the 2030 Future Land Use Plan (Figure 23) will serve as the City's official Future Land Use Plan to regulate future development, the full build -out plan is also provided for reference to guide future land use decisions regarding 2030 Urban Reserve areas. The City's goals and strategies relating to natural resources were also considered throughout the development of the plan. Providing for higher density uses on some sites with scenic natural amenities such as wetland areas or along the shores of Peltier Lake also promotes accessibility to key community features and natural amenities, which is another community goal, for residents of higher density housing. Identifying higher density options in these areas also addresses the community's goal and related strategies to sustain Lino Lakes' natural resources by promoting more flexible development in these areas. Accommodating higher density in these areas provides for more site plan flexibility, as development can be concentrated on areas of the site more suitable for development while environmental features are preserved as open space. As Lino Lakes develops, protection of its valuable natural resources will continue to play an important role in guiding growth and shaping future development. Growth and economic development objectives should be balanced with managing natural resource systems. Natural resource protection strategies are also an essential component of a growth management plan to ensure that the community's resources are preserved. The City has several tools to protect natural areas while also managing future growth. These tools are further outlined in the Comprehensive Plan and include Parks, Natural Open Space, and Trail System Plan (2004), Rare Wildlife and Plant Habitat Models, Suitability Analysis, Handbook for Environmental Planning and Conservation Development (published in December 1999), Planned Unit Development (PUD) to promote Low Impact Design/Conservation Development Principles, Ordinances, Rice Creek Watershed District Lino Lakes Resource Management Plan.

Unique Natural Features Biological Resources The City's Biological Resources are primarily a function of its lakes and natural habitat areas, much of which is located within its parks. Beginning in 1945, a colony of hundreds of great blue herons nested on Rice Lake, south of Lake Peltier. These birds were displaced in the early 1990s by residential development and the opening of a nearby golf course. A second heron colony inhabited Howard Lake, north of Lake Peltier, and once numbered 550 nests. The Howard Lake colony suffered severe losses during a wind storm in 1987, which downed nest trees and killed many young birds. The colony never recovered from the storm's devastation and has since relocated to Lake Peltier. Before 1998 there was an estimated 1100 nests with 1000 to 2000 birds (great blue herons, night herons and great white egrets) or more on Peltier island. The Black -crowned night herons left in 1998. During 2000 and 2001 there was total abandonment of nests of all species on the island. In 2002 a slow no -wake zone was established around the island. In 2004 Andy Von Duyke under the Conservation Biology Graduate Program at the University of Minnesota studied the island rookery through 2004. Conclusions were that the island rookery was heavily predated by raccoons. Citizen volunteers and the City of Lino Lakes have been monitoring the rookery since then and are using tree flashing on nesting trees to keep the raccoons from predating the nests. This seems to be successful. The colony is slowly recovering and in 2011 City staff counted about 57 nests and also observed great white egrets. A research project published by Custer and Galli in 20021, concludes that 47% of the great blue herons nesting in the rookery utilize Peltier Lake for food foraging and most herons travel distances less than 10 miles. Great white egrets tend to travel slightly farther distances and prefer less wet habitat for foraging than do the great blue herons. The area's mix of plant community types provides diverse habitat for amphibians, reptiles, and mammals as well as numerous species of birds found in multiple habitat niches. The most recent known bird surveys conducted in the mid 1970's for Lino Lakes and Anoka County documented well over 200 species occurring in the immediate vicinity. The shoreline and shallows north of the island serve as a spawning area for Northern pike and walleye, and as a resting area for terns, black crown night herons, and other waterfowl. The north arm of the lake is one of the few remaining places in the metro area with healthy native vegetation, including water willow, which is considered a species of special concern. The City has a notable number of rare biological resources. See Table 6 below. As the Resource Management Plan (RMP) was developed, these rare features and habitats that support rare species were prioritized for protection and incorporation into the Wetland Preservation Corridor. These important natural resource areas were carried forward into the 2030 Comprehensive Plan and identified as part of the Multi -Functional Greenway Corridor. In general the rare plant species are found along the upland - wetland transitional zones. Extensive botanical survey work has occurred within the City to document locations of these rare plant species. The City has also invested resources in identifying and protecting Blanding's turtle habitat. The critical habitat areas were identified and incorporated into the Wetland Preservation Corridor and Greenway Corridor. Custer and Galli. 2002.

Native vegetation communities within the City prior to European settlement were primarily comprised of oak barrens and savannas, aspen/oak forests and woodlands, dry, mesic, and wet prairies, rich fens, poor fens, bogs, tamarack swamps, a network of shallow lakes and associated marshes, and inclusions of mesic hardwood forest (Figure 23). Large-scale natural processes dramatically influenced the formation, establishment, and succession of natural vegetation patterns and natural communities within the landscape over thousands of years prior to European settlement. These natural processes include: surface and sub -surface hydrology, flooding, drought, herbivory, wildlife migration, plant dispersal, plant community succession, and occasional to frequent wildfires. Over the past 150 years, the natural landscape and associated landscape processes have been widely altered to accommodate agricultural land uses, development, and other anthropocentric uses of the landscape. The original land survey of the Lino Lakes area was conducted in the middle 1800s. It provides good information about vegetation in and around the City of Lino Lakes prior to Euro -American settlement (U.S. General Land Office, 1853). Interpretation of surveyor's notes indicated the presence of floodplains along large lakes, wetlands, savannas, and mesic forests in protected lakeshores and on islands.

Pollutant Sources Point Sources The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) is charged with regulating businesses that have applied for and received different types of environmental permits and registrations from the MPCA. The MPCA has also been tracking potentially contaminated sites since the early 1980s when major federal and state cleanup programs were created. Figure 25 depicts the locations of properties that have active environmental permits or have a record related to a potential environmental hazard. Data shown in Figure 25 is provided by the MPCA. Additional information of specific sites can be found through the "What's in My Neighborhood" feature on the MPCA website. Potential environmental hazards vary from properties where a spill or problem has already been cleaned up, to those currently being investigated or cleaned up. In addition, some sites depicted in Figure 25have no record of known spills or problems; but rather mark locations where hazardous materials or wastes are used or generated. The most common types of sites in Lino Lakes are small to minimal quantity hazardous waste generators, multiple activity sites, and tank sites (Table 7). The following descriptions are intended to elucidate sites illustrated in Figure 25 and provide the description given by the MPCA for each site type listed in the figures legend. CERCLIS: CERCLIS sites are places that are listed in the federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Information System. This means that they are or were suspected of being contaminated. The CERCLIS database contains information on preliminary assessments, site inspections, and cleanup activities for these sites. After CERCLIS sites are investigated, they may be elevated to state or federal Superfund lists, or it may be determined that no action is necessary. Superfund Projects: Superfund projects occur where known or suspected environmental contamination threatens public health, welfare or the environment. The Superfund Program identifies, investigates and determines appropriate cleanup plans for these sites. Superfund projects often occur at abandoned or uncontrolled sites, for instance, where the business that polluted a site no longer exists. Federal Superfund sites are on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) National Priority List (NPL), while State Superfund sites are on Minnesota's Permanent List of Priorities (PLP). Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) staff may work with EPA staff or other state agencies to investigate and clean up these sites. In Minnesota, sites which may have been contaminated by agricultural chemicals are managed by the Minnesota Department of Agriculture (MDA). State Assessment Site: State Assessment sites are places that the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) Site Assessment staff have investigated because of suspected contamination. The sites investigated include abandoned industrial properties, small commercial businesses and publicly -owned land (note that petroleum -contaminated sites are investigated by MPCA Tanks and Leaks staff). These sites may be referred to the Site Assessment program by the Voluntary Investigation and Cleanup (VIC) program, the Petroleum Remediation program, Minnesota Duty Officer Reports or citizen complaints. Site Assessment staff do an initial assessment, and then determine if further action is needed. If a site poses a threat to human health or the environment, it is referred to CERCLIS, Superfund, RCRA Cleanup or VIC. Unpermitted Dump Site: Unpermitted dump sites are landfills that never held a valid permit from the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA). Generally, these dumps existed prior to the permitting program established with the creation of the MPCA in 1967. These dumps are not restricted to any type of waste, but were often old farm or municipal disposal sites that accepted household waste. State assessment staff have investigated many of these dump sites. Voluntary Investigation & Cleanup (VIC) Site: The Voluntary Investigation and Cleanup (VIC) Program is a non -petroleum brownfield program. VIC provides technical assistance to City of Lino Lakes SWMP 1 December 20151 53 buyers, sellers, developers or local governments seeking to voluntarily investigate or clean up contaminated land. Properties often enter the VIC program in preparation for sale, financing or redevelopment. Voluntary parties that complete investigation and / or cleanup activities under Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) oversight can receive liability assurances that protect them from future Superfund liability. In some cases, the MPCA may use institutional controls as part of the overall site remedy and notify interested parties of any property use conditions or restrictions. Landfill, Open: Open landfills are landfills that are still accepting waste. This includes facilities that accept household garbage, industrial waste, and debris from construction or demolition. The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) requires that landfills are designed to bury this garbage in a controlled manner and reduce potential impacts on the environment. Many landfills have wells installed so that groundwater can be monitored for any contaminants that might leak into the ground. Landfill, Closed: Closed landfills are landfills that are no longer accepting waste. This includes landfills that are privately owned and managed, as well as those that are owned or managed by the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) and are part of the formal Closed Landfill Program. The Closed Landfill Program manages qualified closed landfills throughout Minnesota, and conducts cleanup work and maintenance at those sites. At some of these landfills, landfill gasses may be captured and used to create energy. Landfill, Permitted by Rule: A landfill that is permitted by rule is not required to obtain an individual solid waste permit if it meets certain eligibility criteria. However, it must comply with waste management rules and regulations. Landfills may be permitted by rule if they have a small capacity and/or operate for a short period of time. Some yard waste composting facilities, recycling facilities and energy recovery facilities are also permitted by rule. Contaminated Soil Treatment Facilities: Contaminated soil treatment facilities are places that the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) has approved or permitted to take petroleum - contaminated soils from leak sites and provide treatment through a number of different processes. The processes include thermal treatment (usually by roasting soils at high temperatures), composting, or thin -spreading soils and allowing natural microorganisms to biodegrade the petroleum. Leak Site: Leak sites are locations where a release of petroleum products has occurred from a tank system. Leak sites can occur from aboveground or underground tank systems as well as from spills at tank facilities. A leak can result from an accident or from activities that occur over a long time. The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) Petroleum Remediation Program staff investigates potential leaks and work to minimize or clean up contamination at those sites. Petroleum Brownfield: Petroleum Brownfield sites are places that may have been contaminated with petroleum due to a past or current leak. Minnesota Pollution Control Agency Petroleum Brownfields program staff assesses the risk associated with petroleum contamination at these sites and then provide technical assistance to help get the site cleaned up, developed, and / or transferred to a new owner. Tank Site: A tank site is a place with an underground or aboveground storage tank of a certain size on the premises. One tank site may have multiple tanks, and these tanks may contain food products, petroleum products, or other substances. Tank sites include gas stations, bus companies and trucking companies, as well as factories that process sugar beets, ethanol, pulp and paper, or chemicals. The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) requires monitoring and maintenance at these sites, which helps to ensure that tanks do not cause environmental contamination. City of Lino Lakes SWMP 1 December 20151 54 Industrial Stormwater Permit: At industrial sites such as factories, salvage yards and airports, stormwater may come into contact with harmful pollutants, including toxic metals, oil, grease, de- icing salts and other chemicals. Industrial stormwater permits are designed to limit the amount of these contaminants that reaches surface water and groundwater, by requiring good practices for storing and handling materials. Facilities with these permits must prepare a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan, detailing the practices they will use to limit stormwater pollution. Wastewater Dischargers: A wastewater discharger is a facility that generates or treats wastewater for discharge onto land or into water. Wastewater dischargers include sewage treatment plants, as well as ships with ballast water permits, and some manufacturers. Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) permits may require treatment and monitoring, and limit the amount of contaminants that a facility can release into the environment. Wastewater permits may be classified as SDS or NPDES/SDS. SDS stands for State Disposal System, and indicates that the facility needs to follow Minnesota rules and regulations for wastewater. NPDES is the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System, and indicates that the facility is also subject to the regulations of the federal Clean Water Act. Feedlots: Feedlots may be small farms or large-scale commercial livestock operations. They are places where animals are confined for feeding, breeding or holding. The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) and its county partners place requirements on how manure is managed at feedlots, so that it does not contaminate nearby surface water and groundwater. Most feedlots in Minnesota are only required to register with the MPCA, but larger feedlots may be required to obtain a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit. This means that they must submit plans for how they will reduce their impact on the environment, including their plans to manage manure and control air pollution from the feedlot. Hazardous Waste, LQG: A large quantity generator (LQG) is a facility that generates at least 1,000 kilograms (2,200 pounds) of hazardous waste or 1 kilogram (2.2 pounds) of acutely hazardous waste per calendar month. A Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) permit is not required for a large quantity generator, but the facility must have a current hazardous waste license. This means that they must tell the MPCA what kinds of waste they generate, how much waste they generate, and how they dispose of the waste. Hazardous Waste, Small to Minimal Quantity Generator: A small to minimal quantity generator is a facility that generates less than 1,000 kilograms (2,200 pounds) of hazardous waste or 1 kilogram (2.2 pounds) of acutely hazardous waste per calendar month. These facilities have less stringent rules than large quantity generators. This group includes Small Quantity Generators (SQGs), which produce 100 - 1000 kg of hazardous waste per month; Very Small Quantity Generators (VSQGs), which produce less than 100 kg of hazardous waste per month; and Conditionally Exempt Generators, which produce less than 100 kg or 10 gallons of hazardous waste per year. Like large quantity generators, SQGs and VSQGs must have current hazardous waste licenses. Multiple Activities: Multiple Activity sites are locations where there are multiple Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) activities occurring. These sites vary from facilities with a wastewater permit and an air quality permit to cleanup sites with more than one permit. City of Lino Lakes SWMP 1 December 20151 55 Table 7.

Potential Environmental Hazards wooifiEl iPs. flat im Lino Lakes Storm Water Management Plan Environmental Hazards O Miles 1 City of Lino Lakes SWMP 1 December 20151 57 Nonpoint Sources Nonpoint source pollution is caused by rainfall or snowmelt moving over and through the ground. Runoff picks up and carries away natural and human -made pollutants, finally depositing them into lakes, rivers, wetlands, coastal waters and ground waters. Because of the nutrient (phosphorus) impairments of the Chain of Lakes, phosphorus is the most important nonpoint source pollutant in Lino Lakes. Figure 26 shows the phosphorus loading by subwatershed for existing conditions (2005) and a Full Build -out Scenario (FBO) in Lino Lakes as modeled for the Lino Lakes Resource Management Plan (RMP) using PLOAD (pollutant loading model). PLOAD uses a combination of precipitation and anticipated runoff from the land cover by subwatershed to approximate the volume of water delivered to the waterbody in question. A gridded surface was developed in a Geographic Information System (GIS) based on the MN Hydrology Guide (SCS, 1992) to determine the annual precipitation, evaporation, and runoff by watershed. Each land use was assigned an event mean concentration (EMC), which serves to estimate the loading rate of phosphorus from runoff. Using this data, the total phosphorus loading by subwatershed can be estimated. Additionally, the Rice Creek Watershed District (RCWD) has created a P8 (Program for Predicting Polluting Particle Passage through Pits, Puddles and Ponds) model for the entire City. This model was created during the development of the Lino Lakes Resource Management Plan (RMP) and contains a great deal more detail than the PLOAD model. This model was used to assess nutrient loading to wetlands (Figure 14) and for the Lino Lakes Chain of Lakes Nutrient TMDL (Figure 27). This model could also be used to evaluate future water quality projects and development. P8 model inputs are defined by a series of watersheds and devices that can be used to describe ponds, infiltration basins and other BMPs. Watershed areas, imperviousness and curve numbers in the P8 model were defined based on the XP-SWMM Hydrologic and Hydraulic model created in 2007 for the RMP (see also Floodplain portion of Section 3.8). Additionally, device inputs such as storage and outlet configurations were created from data in the XP-SWMM model. Future water quality modeling efforts should utilize the P8 model to the greatest extent possible. The current total phosphorus budgets for the Chain of Lakes are identified in the Lino Lakes Chain of Lakes Nutrient TMDL (Draft, in process). The draft report includes phosphorus budgets that are based on an average of the data for growing seasons for 2002-2004.

Water Resource Related Agreements The Cities of Lino Lakes and Centerville have entered into a Joint Powers Agreement for regulating water for which the two Cities have jointly adopted and enforce ordinance requirements. 3.14. Intercommunity Flows The City of Lino Lakes is surrounded by several neighboring communities and receives watershed runoff from Blaine, Centerville, Columbus, Hugo, Shoreview, and White Bear Township. Rice Creek Watershed District (RCWD) has estimated the flows to its jurisdictional reaches and, as such, downstream communities, like Lino Lakes, are required to include their allocated flows in their future planning studies, so as to limit adverse impacts to their downstream neighbors of Centerville, Hugo and Circle Pines (Figure 28). The city is contemplating an alternate outlet for build -out conditions pursuant to the development of a Comprehensive Stormwater Management Plan (CSMP) under RCWD Rule C.5 (f). Intercommunity flows and modeled peak flow rates as provided by RCWD are shown below (Table 8). A detailed figure showing all stormwater ponds, streams, lakes and wetlands and structural pollution control devices, pipes, pipe sizes, and conveyances is provided as a larger map in Appendix E. Anoka Washington Judicial Ditch 3 — All Branches & Main Branch The 100 -year 24 hour rainfall event is considered critical in the upper and lower portions of the Anoka - Washington Judicial Ditch 3. The 10 -day snowmelt event is considered critical in the middle portion of the system. The 100 -year floodplain boundary is relatively narrow due to the large amounts of storage provided by the natural lakes and constructed stormwater ponds in the system. No public roadway structures on the main trunk are overtopped in the critical 100 -year event (Houston Engineering, 2013a). Ramsey County Ditch 8 The culverts at the primary road crossings are sufficiently sized to convey flood flows from the public drainage system. None of the crossings are overtopped by the 100- year critical flood event (Houston Engineering, 2013a). Rice Creek Currently, road crossings are sufficiently sized to convey 100 -year flood flows without overtopping, with the exception 85th Avenue, also known as County Road J. Currently; the restriction is caused by the downstream trail crossing. As previously mentioned, Rice Creek will undergo a channel restoration and realignment that is slated to begin in the winter of 2015-2016. The goals of this project will be to restore a more natural, meandering path. This project should prevent the 100 -year event from resulting in overtopping. Anoka County Ditch 55 The Anoka County Ditch 55 consists of a series of buried drain tiles that have historically been prone to blowouts at multiple locations. The system currently experiences surcharges even during moderate 2 -year 24-hour rain fall events. As a result, RCWD has completed an analysis of repair options for County Ditch 55 (HEI Memo 6/19/14). Repairs to ACD 55 are slated to take place over a span of several years. Significant future development is planned for the drainage area to ACD 55, planning will be extremely important since ACD55 discharges to Clearwater Creek and ultimately to Peltier Lake.

Intercommunity flows City of Lino Lakes SWMP 1 December 20151 63 4.0 Identified Issues, Goals and Policies Issues, goals and policies were developed for this Plan through a process of compiling issues and goals identified in plans and studies previously completed by the City and other local agencies. Primary sources of information were the previous Surface Water Management Plan, the City's Comprehensive Plan, resource management plans, and watershed management plans of the Rice Creek Watershed District and Vadnais Lake Area Watershed Management Organization. The compiled goals and policies were refined by city staff and consultants for review by the City of Lino Lakes Environmental Board (whose purpose is to advise the city council in the use and management of its natural resources). Issues, goals and policies have been identified under the following categories: 4.1 Water Rate & Quantity 4.2 Water Quality 4.3 Wetland Management 4.4 Floodplain Management 4.5 Public Ditch System 4.6 Groundwater Management 4.7 Natural Resources 4.8 Erosion and Sediment Control 4.9 Regulations, Permitting and Reporting 4.10 Monitoring, Maintenance and Inspection 4.11 Public Participation, Information and Education 4.12 Financing 4.1. Water Rate & Quantity Issues Within the City of Lino Lakes, streams, lakes, and wetlands have been subjected to increased surface water runoff rates and volumes. Increased discharge rates and volumes have caused serious down -cutting and stream bank erosion in some areas. Increased runoff rates and volumes also contribute to flooding concerns and water quality concerns. These issues are likely to intensify in the future. The Metropolitan Council prepared and adopted a regional growth strategy that anticipates further urbanization of the City. In addition, transportation improvements in or near the City will facilitate and precipitate urbanization. The City of Lino Lakes is planning for development of 1,400 acres east of Peltier Lake, North of Main Street. Furthermore, the City of Hugo is planning for development of a 215 acre area; both areas are currently being drained by Anoka County Ditch 55 (ACD 55). Currently, precipitation events larger than 0.25 inches results in surface water ponding and surface water runoff within the ACD 55 drainage area (Houston Engineering, 2013b). Without an alternative outlet or increased capacity the development may be limited within the ACD 55 drainage area. This may exacerbate current flooding up stream in the ACD 55 system since ACD 55 restricts downstream flows and can only accommodate a small amount of flow. Sediment loads, and with it pollutants and contaminants, would also increase. Flow from the 215 -acre area within the City of Hugo may be up to 62 CFS during the 100 -year 24-hour storm. Additionally, 54 CFS will be generated from the 534 acre area within Lino Lakes that is currently served by ACD 55. The ACD 55 infrastructure currently City of Lino Lakes SWMP 1 December 20151 64 reaches capacity at 1-2 CFS. As a result, the City of Lino Lakes is contemplating a new conveyance system and outlet structure to Peltier Lake from the 1,400 acre development area, which would be subject to review and approval by the RCWD. This may require the development of alternative standards (stormwater rules) to demonstrate no adverse impacts through the use of RCWD Comprehensive Stormwater Management Plan (CSMP) provisions. Goals & Policies Goal 4.1.1: Use the natural characteristics of the City's watersheds in combination with development standards and projects, to reduce present and future runoff rates and volumes (see also Natural Resources and Wetlands goals and policies). Policy 4.1.1A: Continue to enforce standards for storm water runoff quantity from new and re- developments consistent with RCWD, VLAWMO and NPDES Phase II requirements. The City is entirely within the legal jurisdiction of RCWD and VLAWMO, which have water resource permitting programs. The City will remain under RCWD and VLAWMO permitting jurisdiction. The City will coordinate its NPDES Phase II responsibility with the RCWD and VLAWMO permitting programs while understanding that ultimate responsibility for implementation of such a program remains with the City. Policy 4.1.1B: Implement volume control practices to address areas of identified rate and volume concern. Policy 4.1.1C: Support implementation of the RCWD program allowing for a municipality or public road authority to prepare a comprehensive stormwater management plan setting forth an alternative means of meeting water quality treatment standards. Banked "volume control" credits established by public entities for public linear projects with the RCWD prior to July 1, 2013 will continue to be recognized and enforced until all credits are used or all debits are fulfilled. Policy 4.1.1D: Recognize the potential uncertainty associated with managing water resources and understand the implications of emerging issues including climate change, and use Adaptive Management when appropriate. Policy 4.1.1E: Promote `Better Site Design" development techniques in developing and redeveloping areas to minimize runoff volumes. Policy 4.1.1F: Promote the use of agricultural conservation and management practices to reduce the rate and volume of runoff. Policy 4.1.1G: Promote the use of regional Best Management Practices where appropriate to reduce the rate and volume of runoff. 4.2. Water Quality Issues Current data indicate that water bodies located within the City have water quality issues. Several City lakes, such as Bald Eagle, Peltier, George Watch, Marshan and Centerville, Reshanau, Baldwin and Rice Lakes are included in the MPCA's impaired waters list. In addition, both Clearwater and Hardwood Creeks are also included on the 303(d) TMDL list due to biotic impairments. City of Lino Lakes SWMP 1 December 20151 65 Runoff carrying nutrient -rich sediment, road salts, and hydrocarbon -based contaminants is detrimental to the water quality of the City's lakes, streams, rivers, and wetlands. Current water quality conditions present a potential stress to the diversity and population of fish and aquatic invertebrates and impact human uses of the resources. Improvement of these waters will require a watershed wide solution because in many cases much of the drainage area originates upstream of the City. Additionally it has been found that internal loading sources of phosphorus derived from the lake bed sediments in Peltier Lake are affecting the water quality of downstream water bodies. Goals & Policies Goal 4.2.1: Protect and improve water quality and the scenic and ecologic values of City lakes, wetlands and other aquatic assets (see also Natural Resources and Wetlands goals and policies). Policy 4.2.1A: Encourage "Better Site Design" development techniques in developing and redeveloping areas to maintain water quality. Policy 4.2.1B: Develop specific management plans for each Resource Management Unit as necessary recognizing varying ecological, physical and cultural differences between each Resource Management Unit. Policy 4.2.1C: Establish a surface water management system consistent with the Resource Management Plans. Policy 4.2.1D: Apply the Resource Management Unit recommendations from the RMP to meet RMP goals for aquatic resource protection and management. Policy 4.2.1E: Preserve and improve the recreational resources associated with water. Policy 4.2.1F: Continue to enforce City water standards for storm water runoff quality from new and re -developments. Policy 4.2.1G: Incorporate TMDL limits, when determined, into the City's Surface Water Management requirements to reduce degradation and improve the quality of the City's and region's lakes, waterways and other aquatic resources. Policy 4.2.1H: Manage city -owned facilities subject to Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) program requirements consistent with permit conditions. Policy 4.2.1I: Manage city -owned facilities in accordance with the original design purposes, periodically review these purposes, and modify operation in consideration of current resource management objectives. Policy 4.2.1J: Implement and enforce a program to detect and eliminate illicit discharges in accordance with the City's MS4 requirements. Policy 4.2.1K: Manage septic systems in conformance with state standards to protect the quality of water and natural resources. Goal 4.2.2: Initiate and continue vigorous collaborations to address, restore, and preserve the water quality of the region's lakes, wetlands and other aquatic assets. City of Lino Lakes SWMP 1 December 20151 66 Policy 4.2.2A: Work with and partner with the RCWD, VLAWMO and adjacent local governments to protect high quality resources. Policy 4.2.2B: Collaborate with adjacent jurisdictions and agencies to meet TMDL goals and remove impaired water bodies from the impaired waters list. Policy 4.2.2C: Partner with the RCWD on the implementation of Resource Management Plans. Policy 4.2.2D: Facilitate data sharing among public entities that have jurisdiction or facilities within the City. 4.3. Wetland Management Issues Benefits attributed to wetlands include floodwater storage and retention, nutrient assimilation, sediment entrapment, ground water recharge, low flow augmentation, shoreland anchoring and erosion control, aesthetics, recreation, and education. Accordingly, the loss of wetland acres, function and value will have a direct negative effect on the City and its water resources. Goals & Policies Goal 4.3.1: Maintain and enhance, where possible, the functions and services of existing wetlands and associated habitats with the City. Policy 4.3.1A: Continue to support the administration of the Wetland Conservation Act (WCA) requirements within the City by the RCWD and VLAWMO. Policy 4.3.1B: Avoid impacts to upland natural communities that are critical to wetland wildlife habitat function and incorporate these into the wetland preservation corridors/buffer zones. Policy 4.3.1C: Integrate parcel- or project -based wetland replacement with watershed -based restoration and enhancement locations Policy 4.3.1D: Manage wetland resources using the flexibility afforded by state and federal rules, through the implementation of the Resource Management Plan and Special Area Management Plan. Policy 4.3.1E: Consider providing incentives to private landowners to avoid wetland impact, minimize wetland impact, and restore wetlands, while acknowledging that wetland management and the monetary value of wetlands can be based upon differing value systems. Policy 4.3.1F: Require wetland functional assessments, based on accepted methodology, on new development projects to ensure wetland function and services are preserved to the extent possible. 4.4. Floodplain Management Issues Given the physical characteristics, high water table, and number of water bodies and flood prone areas, floodplain management is an important consideration to minimize future flooding events. In addition, a City of Lino Lakes SWMP 1 December 20151 67 number of areas of current flooding concern have been identified through studies by the City and RCWD. Future flooding could also be a concern if development is not conducted in a manner that reduces runoff rates and volumes and if changes in rainfall and snowmelt patterns overwhelm existing infrastructure. Goals & Policies Goal 4.4.1: Provide adequate storage and conveyance of runoff to protect the public safety and minimize property damage. Policy 4.4.1A: Preserve and manage the storage associated with the 100 -year floodplain along and within water -bodies to minimize the frequency and severity of flooding caused by high water. Policy 4.4.1B: Use the natural characteristics of the City's watersheds (e.g., pond, swales, wetlands) in combination with development standards and projects, to reduce present and future flood damage and enhance the quality of surface and ground water. Policy 4.4.1 C: Require that adequate drainage facilities and easements are provided with land development activities. Policy 4.4.1D: Continue to enforce floodplain regulations to ensure that new structures are adequately elevated above identified flood elevations. Policy 4.4.1E: Update the Floodplain Overlay Ordinance as required by FEMA and the Minnesota DNR, or as needed, to ensure adequate protection for structures and eligibility for flood insurance programs. Policy 4.4.1F: Support efforts to restore and reestablish floodplain basins to improve their natural function. 4.5. Public Ditch System Issues Several of the major drainageways in the City are public ditch systems managed by the Rice Creek Watershed District. Some of the public drainage systems are located within completely urbanized areas, have been totally or partially replaced by storm sewer pipe, and no longer serve agricultural land or provide agricultural benefits. These systems function as the outlet for storm water runoff. Other public drainage systems are comprised nearly entirely of undeveloped/agricultural areas that are primarily forecasted for urban development. Public ditch systems need to be managed to provide the drainage services suited to the land contributing to the system. Goals & Policies Goal 4.5.1: Ensure the management and operation of drainage systems and use of waterways in a manner which recognizes the origin of the system (e.g., constructed vs. natural), the interconnectedness of resources, and present and future conveyance needs, while considering legally established rights. Policy 4.5.1A: Work with the RCWD to facilitate effective management of the public ditch system, as needed, to support the recognized functions of these systems. City of Lino Lakes SWMP 1 December 20151 68 Groundwater Management Issues The City of Lino Lakes relies solely on groundwater as its water supply source. The Prairie du Chien - Jordan aquifer serves as the City's municipal water source. There is a growing concern that water supplies may be depleting. The Master Water Supply Plan by the Metropolitan Council indicates the potential for a significant decline in aquifer water levels, up to a 50% decline in available head by 2030. This will affect not only the drinking water supplies, but also resources that may depend on groundwater, such as wetlands, lakes and streams. Goals & Policies Goal 4.6.1: Incorporate ground water considerations into the decision making process through recognizing the interconnectedness of surface water and groundwater supply and groundwater -dependent natural resources. Policy 4.6.1A: Preserve ground water recharge areas in cooperation with Anoka County. Policy 4.6.1B: Promote infiltration of stormwater to result in groundwater recharge where it is feasible and does not pose a threat to groundwater quality. Policy 4.6.1C: Continue to implement the City's Wellhead Protection Plan. Policy 4.6.1D: Participate in the Anoka County Wellhead Protection Group in implementing joint projects that benefit the City of Lino Lakes. 4.7. Natural Resources Issues Lino Lakes is rich in unique and rare natural resources. These resources are most often hydrologically dependent on natural water systems. Reduced quality and variances of water levels stemming from land use changes may have critical impacts to the sustainability of these resources. Preserving and enhancing quality natural resources within the City can have a positive effect on surface and ground water. Extensive development or misuse of the natural areas within the City can have deleterious effects on water resources. Goals & Policies Goal 4.7.1: Identify, protect and preserve the desirable natural areas and ecological and aquatic resources of the community Policy 4.7.1A: Pursue a well-defined natural resource restoration and management plan consistent with the RCWD/Lino Lakes Resource Management Plan (RMP). Policy 4.7.1B: Maintain the partnership of Lino Lakes and Rice Creek Watershed District and other groups such as Anoka County to maintain, restore, and manage the aquatic, aquatic dependent (Such as the Blue Heron Rookery on Peltier Lake) and upland areas of the City. Policy 4.7.1 C: Require natural space buffers, where appropriate, around wetlands to preserve their function and value. City of Lino Lakes SWMP 1 December 20151 69 Goal 4 7 2• Ensure that well-planned, quality residential, commercial, industrial and institutional development accommodates the City's projected growth needs and occurs in a manner that also conserves and enhances the City's natural resources and amenities. Policy 4.7.2A: Encourage developers, where appropriate, to use Open Space Design/Conservation Development Model to implement the Resource Management System Plan. Policy 4.7.2B: Define incentives to achieve Better Site Design to the extent feasible on all development. Policy 4.7.2C: Continue to use the Alternative Urban Areawide Review (AUAR) process to assess the impact of development on the City's natural resources and infrastructure. Goal 4.7.3: Capitalize on opportunities to enhance water quality, reduce runoff volume and flood damage, and enhance ecological resources by using open space and greenways. Policy 4.7.3A: Encourage the use of open space in the design of City projects when multiple benefits are realized. Policy 4.7.3B: Capitalize on the efforts of others responsible for managing open space to enhance their ongoing recreational programs, when these programs are related to the water and resource management effort and are consistent with the City's open space priorities. Policy 4.7.3C: Seek opportunities to enhance habitat function and integrity, to benefit water resources and eco -systems. 4.8. Erosion & Sediment Control Issues Erosion prevention and sediment control is an important aspect in the effort to improve water quality and protect and improve water and natural resources. Erosion is caused by runoff over disturbed soils such as on a construction site or along streambanks. This erosion can result in the transport of sediment into water and natural resources. Sediment deposits and sediment transport can decrease water quality and increase maintenance efforts. Goals & Policies Goal 4.8.1: Prevent erosion and minimize the conveyance of sediment into surface water systems through enforcement of the City's Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP). Policy 4.8.1A: Require erosion control plans for all land disturbance activities in accordance with the City's stormwater management ordinance. Policy 4.8.1B: Continue to enforce the Illicit Discharge and Detection Elimination (IDDE) Ordinance. Policy 4.8.1C: Use best management practices (BMPs) at all construction sites per the MPCA "Protecting Water Quality in Urban Areas" and Minnesota Storm Water Manual as amended. City of Lino Lakes SWMP 1 December 20151 70 Policy 4.8.1D: Coordinate construction site inspections and enforcement with watershed management organization inspection staff. Enforcement actions will be taken where warranted to support protection of water resources. Policy 4.8.1E: Implement and perform good housekeeping measures to minimize sediment entering the drainage system. 4.9. Regulations, Permitting and Reporting Issues The City is regulated under a number of local, state, and/or federal programs that require the implementation of ordinances, permitting, and/or reporting. In addition, the City implements ordinances and permitting to attain the goals outlined in this Plan. Goals & Policies Goal 4.9.1: Implement the Resource Management System Plan through Resource Management Unit Plans. Policy 4.9.1A: Develop and implement Resource Management Unit plans for each RMP. Goal 4.9.2: Address regulatory requirements of local, state and federal programs through updated ordinances, permitting, and ongoing reporting. Policy 4.9.2A: Evaluate City's existing ordinances and programs to facilitate implementation of the Resource Management System Plan. Policy 4.9.2B: Coordinate with the Rice Creek Watershed District and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to manage local wetland resources. Policy 4.9.2C: Work with the Rice Creek Watershed District to implement the Resource Management Plan. Policy 4.9.2D: Implement programs, implement structural solutions, and complete reporting as needed to meet MPCA's requirements for MS4s. Policy 4.9.2E: Support the implementation of the SAMP by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. 4.10. Monitoring, Maintenance & Inspection Issues In order to protect its capital investments and provide an effective water management system, the City of Lino Lakes needs to conduct monitoring, maintenance and inspection of City infrastructure in a timely and cost-effective manner. Infrastructure needs to be monitored and maintained regularly to prevent unnecessary reconstruction projects. This can only be accomplished if an effective inspection and regular maintenance program is in place. A monitoring program verifies the effectiveness of the storm water infrastructure. Goals & Policies Goal 4.10.1: Maintain the function and effectiveness of stormwater management structures through inspection, monitoring and maintenance. City of Lino Lakes SWMP 1 December 20151 71 Policy 4.10.1A: Implement the City's plan for the regular inspection and maintenance of public water resource infrastructure consistent with the requirements of the NPDES MS4 permit. Policy 4.10.1B: Require Operation and Maintenance agreements for the inspection and maintenance of privately constructed water resource infrastructure. Policy 4.10.1C: Implement and refine a training program to prevent or reduce pollutant runoff resulting from City operations. Policy 4.10.1D: Prepare an annual report in accordance with the NPDES MS4 permit and share results with the public, City Council and Boards.

City of Lino Lakes SWMP 1 December 20151 73 5.0 Implementation Activities The implementation activities identified in this Section of the Plan were taken from previously conducted planning and/or resource management documents or they are new activities developed as a result of a gap analysis conducted as part of the planning process. The actions listed in Sections 5.1, 5.2, and 5.3 (Tables 10 — 24) represent the ideal list of implementation activities with full funding, which is currently beyond the city's resources. As a means of prioritizing, and aligning the efforts with a more attainable funding level, or until additional funding becomes available, the activities identified in Tables 25 and 26 represent a synthesized and focused list of actions for city implementation. The costs for the activities in Tables 25 and 26 are also organized by type of activity (CIP, Program, and Study) to better reflect the city's planning and budgeting process. For a more detailed list of the activities identified for priority implementation and the costs associated with those, Appendix B provides a breakout and list of the proposed city-wide actions in the plan making up the implementation cost table shown in Tables 25. Appendix C includes a fully -funded, alternative implementation summary for reference, in the event additional funding could be leveraged. Implementation activities are categorized as follows: City Wide Actions - Includes implementation activities that apply on a broader scale (see Table 8). RMU Specific Actions — Includes implementation activities that have been identified for the three highest priority RMUs: Reshanau RMU, Marshan RMU and Clearwater Creek RMU (see Tables 10 through 12). Miscellaneous RMU Actions - Includes implementation activities that have been identified for the remaining RMUs (see Tables 13 through 24). 5.1. City -Wide Actions Within the City Wide Actions, the implementation activities are organized by the main Issue Category presented in Section 4.0 Identified Issues, Goals and Policies.

Priority RMU Specific Actions This section includes implementation activities that have been identified for the three highest priority Resource Management Units (RMUs), or subwatersheds, in the City of Lino Lakes: Reshanau RMU Marshan RMU Clearwater Creek RMU. City of Lino Lakes SWMP 1 December 20151 79 These RMUs have been identified as a higher priority for the City of Lino because they have the potential for developing sooner than other portions of the City and have been more closely evaluated through the Alternative Urban Areawide Review (AUAR) process or the development of other Master Plans. Like Section 5.1 City -Wide Actions, this section includes RMU specific implementation activities previously identified by the City or other entity (e.g. RCWD, VLAWMO, Anoka County, etc.) in past planning efforts. However, this section does add a schematic to help visualize the multi -functional greenway corridor using a general cross-section that the City can use to demonstrate its vision and goals to developers early in the land development process. The information provided in this section will form the basis for the development of a more in-depth Subwatershed Plans for each RMU which will clearly lay the framework for how the City would like to see future development tie into the multi -functional greenway corridor. The use of RMU corridor plans is to maximize the value and benefit with efficient use of the corridors for multiple public functions: flood control, conveyance infrastructure, water quality and volume treatment, public trail systems, and habitat corridor enhancement. Figure 29 below illustrates the variable cross section configurations that implement the multifunctional greenway corridor. Each of the RMU's would have unique configurations due to the variable landscape settings of the major drainageways. The need to address water quality within the city is partially illustrated in the map showing the various impaired lakes (Figure 12) which has regulatory implications that are still being developed. And wetland impacts are also a consideration (Figure 14). The natural landscape is different throughout the city. To visualize how the corridors would take shape, Figure 2 shows the city divided into the RMUs. The drainage networks, often agricultural ditch systems that make up the backbone of the needed city stormwater infrastructure are shown in Figure 18. Now comparing Figure 18 waterway locations with the naturally low-lying, flood -prone wetland areas of Figure 15, it begins to take shape that each corridor will have a unique characteristic. To illustrate this, one can look at the three priority RMUs. Narrower corridors - Clearwater Creek RMU (Clearwater Creek, Ditch 55, and Ditch 47) and Marshan RMU (Ditch 10-22-32) corridors Wider corridors - Reshanau (Ditch 25) corridor Both could have portions with occasional sections that are medium width. The wider corridors are due to large low-lying areas and wetlands along the drainageway. The cross sections below provide a generic illustration of how those various corridors can be organized when development comes to maximize their public potential to serve the multiple functions and benefits within one area. As shown below, "Setting Type A" illustrates a narrow corridor that does not include significant existing natural feature but still accomplishes the multifunctional goals. "Setting Type C" is a much wider section that incorporates existing natural features with the recreational and stormwater conveyance components easily included. In these ways, additional benefits are provided to the community and with small additional costs and can be incorporated into the city process so they produce a direct outcome of the development process.

RMU Specific Actions: Reshanau RMU Actions identified by Issue Category WATER RATE & QUANTITY Work with RCWD to develop management plans (including outlet control structures and vegetation management) for Wards Lake and Cedar Lake which are currently controlled by ditched outlets. WATER QUALITY Address pollutant loads to Reshanau Lake, Cedar Lake and Wards Lake as well as those smaller lakes contributing to overall loads. Work with RCWD to investigate water quality benefits of a control structure for Cedar lake. WETLAND MANAGEMENT Incorporate interspersed upland areas into the greenway corridor of the wetland plant communities comprising the backbone of the Ditch 25 system in order to increase habitat functioning of the wetlands and provide passive recreation. Work with RCWD to develop a restoration plan for partially drained wetlands of the Ditch 25 system to attain wetland restoration credit. Implement Cedar Lake Restoration Project and explore options for wetland mitigation credit. FLOODPLAIN MANAGEMENT Address the three areas where road overtopping occurs in the RMU in conjunction with surrounding development proposals. PUBLIC DITCH SYSTEM Collaborate with the Rice Creek Watershed District (RCWD) to design the ACD -25 ditch corridor in a way that will help mitigate the impacts of increased flows and volumes within the corridor. Minimize road crossings of ACD -25 in order to maintain a continuous corridor. It is also recommended that field crossings be eliminated or converted into trail crossings as development occurs. In some cases these crossings are serving as rate control features. At the time that they are proposed to be altered, downstream impacts would need to be assessed and a mitigation strategy would need to be developed if needed.

Other RMU Actions This section includes implementation activities that have been identified for the remaining Resource Management Units (RMUs), or subwatersheds, in the City of Lino Lakes. Most of the area in these RMUs lies outside of proposed development areas through 2030. Therefore, these actions generally have a low priority for implementation. As this section illustrates, there are fewer implementation activities identified for these RMUs because of their low priority relative to those presented in Section 5.2 RMU Specific Actions. As a result, if the need arises to develop a subwatershed management plan or Resource Management Plan for these RMUs, the level of effort required to develop that plan for these RMUs may be greater than for the previously discussed RMUs. 5.3.1 George Watch RMU Subwatershed Table 12. RMU Specific Actions: George Watch RMU WATER RATE & QUANTITY Implement a network of BMPs in the conveyance area along Lake Drive NE to reduce stormwater discharges from pond which currently outlets to a channel and ultimately enters stormwater-sensitive wetland complex (located north of I -35W and south of Oak Lane).

Implementation Costs The estimated costs for the City of Lino Lakes to implement the city-wide and RMU-specific actions included in this implementation plan as defined in Section 5.1 are summarized in Table 24. These actions are broken down into 3 project types; 1) Capital Improvement Projects (CIP), 2) Programs, and 3) Studies. Capital Improvement Projects include but are not limited to new stormwater capacity, quality or volume control improvements as well as wetland mitigation or restoration activities. Programs include ongoing education, inspection, maintenance, and pollution prevention activities that are necessary to maintain the existing system and meet the requirements of the City's NPDES permit. The Study category includes projects necessary to evaluate the City's system including subwatershed drainage plans and feasibility studies. Actions in the implementation plan as defined in Sections 5.2 and 5.3 are summarized in Table 25. The total estimated cost to implement this plan, including City-wide and all RMU Subwatershed Areas, is $2,901,800 over 10 years, or approximately $290,180 per year. It should be noted, that some of the costs should be recovered through surface water management impact fees collected in conjunction with development. While there are some infrastructure costs included here, it is fairly minimal on infrastructure projects. The majority of costs are related to maintenance of the existing system and satisfying the programmatic requirements of the City's NPDES permit. It is further assumed that once the more detailed RMU Subwatershed Plans are completed, more of the infrastructure costs will be defined so it can be included in developer fees for each area.

This section outlines the activities needed to administer this Plan. 6.1. Regulatory Coordination Federal Coordination with federal agencies on water issues for the City of Lino Lakes often is with the Army Corps of Engineers, and sometimes also with the Environmental Protection Agency, the United States Geological Survey, the United States Department of Agriculture, the Fish and Wildlife Service, and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. The Army Corps of Engineers regulate activities in navigable waters and wetlands. Therefore, coordination is required for activities that have the potential to affect wetland and lake systems in the City of Lino Lakes. The Army Corps of Engineers issues permits under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act and also allow for approval of permitting and replacement plans that meet the requirements of Section 404 on a regional basis. Lino Lakes has and approved Special Area Management (SAMP) with the Army Corps of Engineers. The SAMP is implemented through a Programmatic General Permit (PGP) that includes special wetland regulatory conditions for the City of Lino Lakes. In summary, the PGP provides mitigation flexibility for impacts that are consistent with the SAMP. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has delegated many of its responsibilities within Minnesota to the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency including the administration and enforcement of National Pollutant Discharge and Elimination (NPDES) permits and the Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) program. The United States Geological Survey (USGS) collect data on stream flow, groundwater levels, and other information which is useful to the City in evaluating its resources. The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) oversees the National Resource Conservation Service and the Farm Service Agency who provide technical services, conservation programs and funding to agricultural producers. In addition, the soils and technical data collected by the NRCS is information used by the City. The Fish and Wildlife Service works to conserve and improve fish and wildlife and their habitat. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), among other activities, collect weather and climate data. State On a state level, regulatory coordination related to water and natural resources includes addressing impaired waters, managing stormsewer systems and construction sites, managing shorelines, and a number of other areas. Agencies the City may coordinate with include the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, the Department of Natural Resources, the Minnesota Department of Transportation, and the Minnesota Department of Health. The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) oversees the programs addressing municipal separate storm sewer systems (MS4s), construction site stormwater, industrial stormwater, impaired lakes and streams, feedlots, soil and groundwater contamination, and wastewater treatment. A number of these programs affect the City of Lino Lakes. The two main areas requiring coordination are the MS4 program and addressing impaired waters. City of Lino Lakes SWMP 1 December 20151 90 The City's stormwater system is designated as a Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) by the MPCA. The City's Storm Water Pollution Prevention Program (SWPPP) was developed to address the requirements for MS4s. A permit re -issuance was approved in May 2013 and went into effect August 1, 2013. The reissued permit will require changes to the City's SWPPP. A number of Total Maximum Daily Load studies (TMDLs) are in process and others have been completed. These studies establish daily load limits for certain compounds that were found to contribute to the impairment. The City of Lino Lakes will likely have a wasteload allocation that establishes the maximum allowed discharge of the regulated pollutant for each TMDL. The Rice Creek Watershed District (RCWD) will document progress towards achieving the load reductions needed to meet the TMDL allocations for impaired water bodies within its jurisdiction. The City of Lino Lakes will provide information on a routine basis to the RCWD regarding new projects and programs that lead to load reductions needed to meet a TMDL. The Department of Natural Resources (DNR) leads programs that regulate shoreline and floodplain development, groundwater use, and conducts various efforts to support water-based recreation and quality fisheries. The City has a shoreline and floodplain ordinance that is in compliance with the DNR's standards. The Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) manages the state's transportation system including a number of highways in the City of Lino Lakes. Coordination with MnDOT is needed when an activity may impact a state highway or its right of way. The Minnesota Department of Health works to address a number of health issues, but the primary area of coordination for the City is with the protection of drinking water resources including wellhead protection and drinking water treatment. Regional Regulatory coordination on a regional level involves coordination with the Metropolitan Council and with watershed management organizations, particularly the Rice Creek Watershed District and the Vadnais Lake Area Watershed Management Organization. The City addresses the water -related concerns of the Metropolitan Council primarily through the City's Comprehensive Plan and this Plan. The Comprehensive Plan frames how the city will address issues such as housing and transportation along with water concerns noted by the Metropolitan Council. The Rice Creek Watershed District (RCWD) implements and enforces a set of rules related to stormwater and natural resource management. In addition, the RCWD is the WCA Local Government Unit (LGU) for a number of jurisdictions including Lino Lakes. The City works with the RCWD to protect and manage the wetland and water resources of the City. The Vadnais Lake Area Watershed Management Organization (VLAWMO) also works to protect and improve water resources. VLAWMO is also the WCA LGU for a number of jurisdictions including those portions of Lino Lakes within their jurisdictional boundary. 6.2. City Administration of Surface Water Management Plan The implementation of this Plan will be coordinated by staff with input from the Environmental Board. The staff will coordinate within the various departments as needed to ensure implementation of this plan over the next ten years. City of Lino Lakes SWMP 1 December 20151 91 After this Plan is approved by the watershed organizations, the City of Lino Lakes will adopt and implement the Plan within 120 days and will update and approve its ordinances and official controls to be consistent with this Plan within 180 days. 6.3. Amendments to Surface Water Management Plan The City of Lino Lakes intends that this Plan extend through 2021. The City may need to revise this Plan prior to the next update for it to remain a useful long-term planning tool. Plan amendments will be needed if significant changes are required involving goals, policies, administrative procedures, funding or the capital improvement program, or if problems arise that are not addressed in the Plan. This Plan will remain in full effect through 2021 unless an updated plan is approved prior to that date. Technical information (i.e. from City -led studies and monitoring and new data from City partners) will require frequent updating. The City intends to post this updated information on the City website. Technical information that results in new action items will be incorporated into City operations through implementation of the City's programs, projects and watershed management strategies as appropriate. Generally, these technical updates and studies are considered part of the normal City operations consistent with the intent of this Plan and will not trigger a Plan amendment. However, when the new technical information or study findings result in a significant policy change, or the District intends to initiate a program or construct a capital improvement not sufficiently identified in the Plan, a plan amendment will be required. All major amendments to the Plan that deviate from the existing Plan scope and direction will be submitted to the Rice Creek Watershed District and the Vadnais Lake Area Watershed Management Organization for review and approval. The review process is 60 days unless the City agrees to an extension of the review period. The Plan amendment may also be submitted to the Metropolitan Council for a 45 -day review to be incorporated into the review of the RCWD and VLAWMO. City of Lino Lakes SWMP 1 December 20151 92 7.0 Financial Considerations Plan implementation tasks are presented in two ways. First are city-wide costs for stormwater related activities that would apply city-wide and are not specific to a certain subwatershed. Those costs are further divided into the 12 Issue Categories identified during the planning process and reflected in the City's Local Surface Water Management Plan. For cost estimating, the 12 categories are listed separately, but in the implementation of those activities from a practical stand point, there will be some activities that can be coordinated to facilitate ease of implementation. There has been an effort NOT to duplicate or create redundant funding in these costs estimates, so some efficiency of implementation is included in the costs. Secondly, implementation costs are also provided based on the subwatershed. The city contains 15 Subwatersheds of various sizes and complexity and therefore the needs of each will be unique. The management at the Subwatershed level is to reinforce the City's Comprehensive Plan approach of developing Resource Management Unit level planning and management at that Subwatershed scale. The top 3 priority subwatersheds have the costs provided with more detail due to their higher likelihood of experiencing growth and development. All the Subwatershed/RMUs will require a more detailed RMU Plan be developed for them to better detail the trunk infrastructure costs needed. Those RMU Plan costs are included in the cost estimate table for approximately half of the RMUs based on the expected need for the plans and local issues arising (development, TMDLs, etc.) Many of the items fall under past activities that have been typically included in the City's budget for stormwater infrastructure. The City currently has a Surface Water Management Charge that is updated annually based on the Engineering News Record (ENR) Index for new development to cover the cost of administration, planning, and trunk/regional infrastructure. It is recommended that this fee, updated with the new cost information, will be used to fund the Subwatershed/RMU Plans. The costs identified in the RMU studies would then be used to update the fee schedule in future years. With each RMU identified individually, the City will have the opportunity to decide if they would like the fee schedules different for the various RMUs or combined for a city-wide average. The remainder of the stormwater funding comes from the general fund of the city which also covers some of the stormwater planning and implementation needs. While this is common practice in many communities such as Lino Lakes, the more the specialized, user -fee type funds can be used, typically the more stable and adequate the funding is. Other sources of funding and revenue are also worth considering. The creation of a wetland bank as shown in the implementation plan, with time can be self- funded since there is a need for wetland bank credits. Grant opportunities at the state and local (ex. watershed) level can and should be leveraged to relieve local funding pressures and in some cases accelerate implementation. City of Lino Lakes SWMP 1 December 20151 93 8.0 Glossary & Acronyms 8.1. Glossary Adaptive management An iterative process of evaluating progress toward stated goals and revising and refining implementation actions to ensure that progress is being made toward the goal. Bacteria Microorganisms that can live in a variety of conditions, some types can cause illness in humans. The quantity of E. coli, a specific type of bacteria, is used as a metric to evaluate potential fecal contamination in surface water resources. Best Management Practices (BMPs) Methods used to control the speed and total amount of stormwater that flows off a site after a rainstorm and used to improve the quality of the runoff water. Can also refer to practices for control of sediment and erosion. Climate change A long-term change in climate measures such as temperature and rainfall. Changes in climate have a large impact on water quality as well as lake and wetland water levels and stream and river flows. Eutrophication The process of increased water body productivity (growth of algae and aquatic vegetation) caused by increasing nutrient input to the water body. Floodplain The land adjacent to a water body that is expected to be inundated with water after a large rainfall event. Green infrastructure A stormwater management approach that utilizes natural landscape features and hydrologic processes to treat stormwater by infiltration, evapotranspiration, and/or reuse of runoff. Green infrastructure also achieves other environmental goals such as carbon sequestration, reductions in urban heat island effect, improved air quality, improved wildlife habitat and increased opportunities for outdoor recreation. (Definition adapted from US EPA) Groundwater Water located below ground in the spaces present in soil and bedrock. Groundwater recharge Water moving through the soil surface and deeper underground to become groundwater. Hydrology The movement of water. Often used in reference to water movement as runoff over the soil after a rainfall event as it contributes to surface water bodies. Illicit discharges Any contribution to the storm sewer system that isn't stormwater (i.e. illegal connections to the storm sewer, dumping of materials in the storm sewer). Impervious surfaces Surfaces that severely restrict the movement of water through the surface of the earth and into the soil below. Impervious surface typically refers to manmade surfaces such as non -porous asphalt or concrete roadways, buildings, and heavily compacted soils. Infiltration The movement of water into the soil. Mercury A metal that cycles between land, air and water. The primary source of mercury in water bodies is air pollution. Mercury accumulates in fish and often results in fish consumption advisories for lakes and rivers. Mercury can have toxic effects on the nervous system of animals, including humans, that eat large quantities of fish. City of Lino Lakes SWMP 1 December 20151 94 Metals Metals dissolved in water. Typical metals included in monitoring programs are cadmium, chromium, copper, lead, nickel, and zinc. Nonpoint source pollution Pollution, such as nutrients and sediment, that are not from one distinct origin. For example, soil can run off of land throughout the watershed, it does not come from just one point. Nutrient Element essential for plant or animal growth. Major nutrients include nitrogen, phosphorus, carbon, oxygen, sulfur, and potassium. Within surface water systems, nutrients such as phosphorus and nitrogen can lead to the excessive growth of algae. Nutrient/Eutrophication Biological Indicators A surface water impairment based on high levels of nutrients that cause eutrophication and changes in the biological community Outwash plain A region of relatively flat to undulating topography covered by sediment deposited by the glacier meltwater. Outwash is usually composed of sand, sand and gravel, or fine sand and silt. Special Area Management Plan (SAMP) The SAMP provides a watershed -based and conservation -based framework for aquatic resource management, particularly as development and redevelopment occur within the City. The SAMP addresses future water quality, quantity, flow rates and wetland function and condition in light of forecasted development and potential changes to surface and groundwater characteristics. The Army Corps of Engineers St. Paul District (Corps) uses the SAMP in its Clean Water Act Section 404 permit evaluations within the area addressed by the SAMP. Stormwater/Stormwater runoff The water that flows off a site after a rainstorm. Subwatershed A smaller geographic section of a larger watershed unit with a drainage area of typically between 2 and 15 square miles and whose boundaries include all the land area draining to a specified point. Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) The maximum quantity of a particular water pollutant that can be discharged into a body of water without violating a water quality standard. TMDL also refers to the process of allocating pollutant loadings among point and nonpoint sources. Watershed The geographic region within which water drains into a particular river, stream, or body of water. Water Quality Water quality is a term used to describe the chemical, physical, and biological characteristics of water, usually in respect to its suitability for a particular use. In the case of surface waters, uses are typically swimming and fishing. Wetland Restoration The re-establishment of a wetland functions in a wetland area that had previously been altered due to draining, filling or other means.
