The state of Minnesota’s Wellhead Protection (WHP) Program, administered by the Minnesota

wells. These plans are to be amended approximately every 10 years in accordance with the
Minnesota Wellhead Protection Rule (Minnesota Rules parts 4720.5100 to 4720.5590). Staff has
been working with MDH to review the requirements for the amendment to our current WHP
Program. The WHP has two parts. Part 1, in general, includes development of a hydrogeologic
model, assessment of well and aquifer vulnerability and delineation of a Drinking Water Supply
Management Area (DWSMA). Part 2 is planning document, taking information from Part 1, and
identifying management strategies for potential contaminant sources. The City’s deadline to
complete both parts is March 31, 2029. Each part can take approximately one year to complete.
Staff obtained a proposal from Sphero’s Environmental to complete this work in the amount of
$29,400 for Part 1. Sphero’s has completed several Part 1 plans for communities and is qualified
to complete the work. Part 2 will be addressed separately once Part 1 has been completed.
Adoption of the Consent Agenda approved the proposal from Spheros Environmental to
complete Part 1 of the WHPP.
