wells within the City. The City sanitary sewer system collects wastewater for transport to the Metro Wastewater Treatment Facility where it is treated. The City will continue the current arrangement with the RCWD regarding Wetland Conservation Act (WCA) administration and permitting activities. The City will coordinate site plan review efforts concurrently with the RCWD, but ultimately defer to the RCWD for WCA administration and permitting activities. City staff coordinates with the RCWD and other outside agencies in surface water resource management and conservation. The City's current regulations are available on the City's website at: http://www.ci.mounds-view.mn.us/. 3.3 RAMSEY COUNTY Ramsey County was created in 1849 and is one of Minnesota's original nine counties. The County provides many services to Mounds View residents, including health services and property records. County government also includes the Ramsey Conservation District (RCD), which encourages the protection of natural resources. 3.4 RICE CREEK WATERSHED DISTRICT (RCWD) The City lies entirely within the RCWD. The RCWD encompasses approximately 185 square miles of Anoka, Hennepin, Ramsey, and Washington counties in Minnesota. Portions of the RCWD are in the following municipalities: Arden Hills, Birchwood Village, Blaine, Centerville, Circle Pines, Columbia Heights, Columbus, Dellwood, Falcon Heights, Forest Lake, Fridley, Grant, Hugo, Lauderdale, Lexington, Lino Lakes, Mahtomedi, May Township, Mounds View, New Brighton, Scandia, Roseville, Shoreview, Spring Lake Park, Saint Anthony, White Bear Lake, White Bear Township, and Willernie. The RCWD updated their Watershed Management Plan in 2020 and last updated their rules in December 2016 (effective January 2017). This LSWMP reflects these updated rules. The RCWD is active in the regulatory process, including issuing permits to ensure that property owners and land users manage water resources in the District according to RCWD goals and policies. In general, as defined in the RCWD rules, the types of projects that may be regulated by the RCWD include, but are not limited to: ■ Land development and redevelopment. ■ Road projects. ■ Trail projects. ■ Utility projects. As discussed further in this SWMP, it is the intent of the City to take over responsibility for the permitting of stormwater and wetlands.
