Subject: Lake Demontreville and Olson Proposed New slow no wake trigger elev.
My understanding is that there is a proposal to lower the slow no—wake trigger elevation to the ordinary high water
level.
|n order to change the elevation that triggers s|owno+waketngointoeffeotthefoUVvvngviUberequired:
1. Letter of intent stating why the change is needed/provide reasoning such as: it has been found that
environmental damage occurred or would occur at the current trigger elevation that would be reduced or
eliminated at the proposed elevation. Provide any photos, reports, or testimony that support the
reasoning. Ideally we would have a study, including photos, showing the elevation where environmental damage
becomes e significant concern. |f the city were proposing to raise the elevation from the current trigger, astudy
would become more critical. Note that using the DHVV elevation as the trigger is commonly done.
2. Hold a public hearing and provide us with a record of public comments. Include comments received outside of
the hearing oswell.
3. Submit an updated water surface use packet, Since your last packet was so recently done, provide updates only
where changes have occurred.
Please coordinate all correspondence from this point forward to Margaret Bergsrud at above e-mail or by phone at: 651-
259-5590. Margaret who works in my section, now coordinates water surface use statewide.
