LRRWMO Meetinq Minutes June 23, 1993 Page 8 Haas stated he is comfortable with what is being proposed. However, he did indicate Mr. Pederson will have to get permits from the county for any ditch cleaning. Jankowski queried whether the wetlands have been delineated on the applicant's property; other restoration plans have required delineation. He felt the board should require the same level of information on this mitigation plan as on others. Haas concurred. Mr. Pederson stated Anoka County Soil and Water Conservation District's (SWCD) Chris Lord showed the. types of lands in his letter on the cease and desist order. He was reportedly told by Mr. Lord to take identifiable pictures of the area so that improvements could be identified upon inspection. Jankowski noted that the question of inspection is still uncertain; who should be doing it. Jankowski stated he would like to see the identified areas being proposed for mitigation on this plan. Just showing the upland is not sufficient. Mr. Pederson again referred to the map provided, indicating there will be a 90 x 12 feet area being taken out. There is a 14 x 90 foot area identified on a letter from Mr. Lord. Jankowski stated he feels Mr. Pederson probably has all the' necessary information; however, it should be condensed on one document/map. Mr. Pederson agreed he would eliminate one drawing. In answer to Weaver's query as to whether Mr. Pederson has complied with the restoration order, Jankowski noted Beduhn's comments indicating Mr. Pederson does not wish to fully comply; he is proposing an alternative. Mr. Pederson indicated he would comply in some respects, but he wants to leave the road there in order to be able to get back to the high ground. Without it, he must use boots. Mr. Pederson stated unfortunately the road is already in because he did not know he could not disturb that area. He indicated he is hoping to be able to leave those two areas alone, doing a trade-off by removing the high ground in front of the pond to offset 1:1 with what he wants to leave. The applicant indicated in proving he has done the proposed mitigation he would put in stakes on the edge of the pond and move it back, later removing the identifying markings. Haas noted he has 30 days to comply with the restoration order. Weaver stated the restoration can be delayed to September 1, 1993; however, Mr. Pederson's 30 days have already expired.
