its limited resources. The list is also used in the environmental review process. The Surface <br />Water Features map and Priority Waters List table show the priority waters for Hugo. <br />When using this Priority Waters List, for projects near a specific waterbody, we recommend <br />you connect with local residents to understand how they value and interact with the waterbody. <br />The Twin Cities region is home to many diverse communities with different cultural and <br />personal relationships to water, so it’s important to incorporate those perspectives in addition <br />to the Priority Waters List when working on local-scale projects. Communities should identify <br />the Priority Waters and the projects and/or programs that will protect or restore these waters. <br />The Water Contamination and Impaired Waters map includes any water bodies that are on the <br />Minnesota Pollution Control Agency’s 303d Impaired Waters List. <br />Table of Priority Waters for the City of Hugo <br /> Waterbody Type Name DNR Lake ID DNR Kittle Number <br />Lake Bald Eagle 62000200 --- <br />Lake Oneka 82014000 --- <br />Lake Rice 82014600 --- <br />Water Supply <br />Water supply is not a regional system. However, water supply information is required for local <br />comprehensive plan updates to meet statutory requirements and for consistency with regional <br />policy. <br />To ensure that there is a safe and plentiful supply of water–for a wide range of residential, <br />commercial, institutional, industrial, recreational, and other purposes–it is important to make <br />sure local water supply sources, infrastructure, and planned investments are aligned with <br />planned land use changes. <br />The Met Council recognizes the local responsibility and authority for water supply planning. <br />However, a regional perspective is also valuable, because the effects of local water supply <br />decisions do not stop at community boundaries. The Met Council provides regional planning, <br />guidance, and resources to support communities and help safeguard our shared water <br />resources. <br />Water supply plan-related requirements generally include: <br />•Clearly identifying the locations of water sources and amount of water that is currently <br />used and is planned to be used for things like agriculture, homes, businesses, <br />industries, and other public and private purposes. This includes areas that affect those <br />water sources, such as source water protection areas. <br />•Creating a program for how to implement local rules and regulations about water <br />supply, including when and how these rules will be developed, adopted, and <br />administered. <br />Communities served by a municipal community public water supply system must fulfill part of <br />these requirements by attaching a local water supply plan approved by the Minnesota <br />Department of Natural Resources as an appendix to the comprehensive plan. <br />2025 SYSTEM STAT(MENT WATER RESOURCES 26
