LRRWMO Meeting Minutes November 20, 1991 Page 6 Considerable discussion ensued with regard to the size of these numerous projects. Jankowski confirmed he has not required the project developers to file a LRRWMO permit in that none of them are going to the LRRWMO engineer for review. The board discussed the various projects indicated on the report, noting several of them are of considerable size and will probably directly affect adjacent wetlands or bodies of water. Schrantz and Weaver indicated it was their opinion many of these projects should have an LRRWMO permit and go through the review process, noting their impact on surround- ing wetlands and bodies of water. For the December regular meeting, Jankowski agreed to provide the board with a presentation on drainage plans for the following projects: Hunters Ridge, Lord of Life Lutheran Church, Cedar Hills, and Chestnut Pond. REPORT OF OFFICERS Weaver presented a proposed flood plain ordinance amendment, required by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, being considered by the City of Anoka. PENDING PROJECTS /PERMIT REVIEWS (Cont.) St. Francis Waste Water Treatment Facility Expansion Schultz noted the LRRWMO letter of October 31, 1991, to the MPCA Environmental Planner Paul Schmiechen, regarding the proposed St. Francis Wastewater Treatment Facility Expansion Project, as well as the receipt of an October 22, 1991, copy of a letter to MPCA's Paul Hoff, Director of the Environmental Analysis Office, from the Anoka Soil and Water Conservation District, which presented questions and comments on the EAW for the St. Francis proposal. Schultz worried that the EAW still did not address the flow into the Rum River. He expressed considerable concern about the project in that it is located directly to the north of Anoka. Jankowski indicated it is not clear whether they currently discharge into the Rum River. Motion was made by Jankowski, seconded by Schrantz, DIRECTING A LETTER BE WRITTEN TO THE MPCA REQUESTING ASSESSMENTS IN THE ANTICIPATED CHANGES IN WATER QUALITY DOWNSTREAM OF THE DISCHARGE INTO THE RUM RIVER.
