LRRWMO Meeting Minutes October 17, 1990 Page 7 the LRRWMO's responsibility to request the agencies involved, Coon Rapids or the DNR, to request the developer to put in skimmers and other systems of monitoring water quality be established and provided by the developer. Mr. Hovey agreed to back up whatever the LRRWMO would request of them. Those involved with the project can not be allowed to violate any property rights. Mr. Hovey indicated he would mention to the City of Coon Rapids they are in violation of the LRRWMO rules. Weaver indicated this board must insure water quality is improved, not.diminished. - Motion was made by Schrantz, seconded by Weaver, to REQUIRE THE FOLLOWING OF THE DEVELOPER: 1. PROPER APPLICATION BE MADE TO THE LRRWMO FOR REVIEW AND CONSIDERATION. 2. WATER QUALITY TESTING SHOULD BE DONE IMMEDIATELY AND MONITORED EVERY YEAR FOR THE NEXT FIVE YEARS. 3. SKIMMERS SHALL BE REQUIRED TO PROTECT THE WETLANDS FROM PARKING LOT RUNOFF. 4. THE CITY OF COON RAPIDS OR THE DEVELOPER SHALL ALSO MAKE APPROPRIATE CHANGES IN THE FLOOD PLAIN MAP. The members concurred with Mr. Hovey's suggestion that upon this board's request, as indicated throughout the meeting and by way of intent through the motion, the DNR could require the City of Coon Rapids to conduct the requested water quality study. Schrantz urged either the city or developer receive a notice of cleaning the ponds and then be checked to see if it has been done. Schultz noted sweeping is an important port of the preventative process. Schrantz indicated whoever is responsible for cleaning the ponds should be given a specific time period when they are to be cleaned, not just left to "when needed ". Mr. Hovey stated the DNR would have preferred to put a specific maintenance time period for cleaning the ponds in the permit. However, they said they did not know how often it would be necessary. That is why the DNR went with a "when needed" provision. Mr. Hovey agreed to contact the Board of Water and Soil Resources to discuss this matter with them.
