2. Subsequent to the Council's approval of the City's Comprehensive Plan <br /> Amendment, the Council informed the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency <br /> that the Council has no objection to the issuance of a sewer extension permit <br /> for the Harding Street Lift Station project. <br /> 3. Upon execution of the Agreement by both parties, the City agrees to implement <br /> the following private property M source reduction program. <br /> a. Point of Sale Removal—As existing homes within the City are sold, the <br /> City will administer an ongoing program requiring an inspection of the <br /> plumbing system. If either sump pumps or passive drain tile are found that <br /> discharge clear water to the sanitary sewer system, their discharge will be <br /> routed away from the sanitary sewer. <br /> b. Public Education Program by Target Area— The City will begin a public <br /> education program in 2001 by target areas that will be completed in 2003. <br /> This program will inform the City's residents of the impacts of clear water <br /> entering the sanitary sewer system and of the City's program to have these <br /> systems disconnected from the sanitary sewer system. <br /> c. Technical and Inspection Assistance to Property Owners—The City will <br /> provide technical and inspection assistance to property owners to support <br /> • the voluntary removal program. The technical and inspection assistance <br /> program will begin in 2001 and extend through 2003 and is intended to <br /> help motivate home owners to disconnect either sump pumps or passive <br /> drain tile from the sanitary sewer system. <br /> d. Review of Effectiveness— At the end of 2002 the City and the Council will <br /> review the effectiveness of the City's 1/I reduction program. <br /> e. Clearwater Separation Program. If the City has not met the I/I goal as <br /> established by the Council, the City will initiate an aggressive non- <br /> voluntary Clearwater Separation Program. Under this program all homes <br /> within target areas will be inspected and where clear water discharge is <br /> found, the discharge of clear water into the sanitary system will be <br /> eliminated. The program goal will be to remove enough sump pumps and <br /> passive drain title connections from the sanitary sewer system to meet the <br /> VI goals by the end of 2005. The actual number of homes to be inspected <br /> annually under this program will be determined at the end of 2002 based <br /> upon the effectiveness of the City's program to that date. The non- <br /> voluntary program will continue until the City has either met the M goal <br /> for two(2)years or has completed the inspection of all homes within the <br /> City;provided however, that if the City has stopped its non-voluntary <br /> program because the City has met the established UI goal over a two (2) <br /> • <br /> 2 <br />
