<br />Lower Rum River Water Management Organization <br />3rd Generation Water Management Plan <br />By: Chris Anderson, Environmental Coordinator <br /> <br />Background: <br /> <br />CASE # 1 <br /> <br />The Lower Rum River Water Management Organization (LRRWMO) is responsible for the <br />surface water resources within the Rum River Watershed south of the City's northern .limits and <br />includes all of Ramsey and the City of Anoka and portions of Coon Rapids and Andover (see <br />Exhibit 1). Every ten years, Water Management Organizations are required to review their <br />watershed plans and update their goals for the next ten years. The LRRWMO is currently in the <br />process of updating its plan and is seeking public input on issues of concern within the <br />watershed. A survey is being prepared that will be distributed to watershed residents at random <br />and also to organizations with a known interest in water related issues. <br /> <br />The Environmental Policy Board is an organization from which comment and input would be <br />valued in the development of this plan. It is uncertain whether the actual survey form will be <br />available at the time of the October meeting. However, City Staff should likely have a listing of <br />the questions from the survey available for your consideration and discussion. It would be useful <br />to have a joint statement from the Board on this topic. In addition, individual survey <br />questionnaires will be distributed or mailed to board members. <br /> <br />Recommendation <br /> <br />. Board. members should be prepared to review survey questions and provide feedback or discuss <br />possible surface water resources concerns/issues. <br /> <br />EPB Action <br /> <br />Based on discussion. <br /> <br />EPB: 10/6/08 <br />
