Re: Wetlands/S~rface Water <br /> <br />The EAW was prepared in late winter thus prohibiting a detailed wetland <br />delineatior~ during the preparation. Wetlands were, in fact, delineated in early <br />May, 199~. The proposed project will unavoidably impact wetland areas, since <br />there are no prudent alternatives to some segments of the roadway. As a <br />result of the delineation, the extent of the impacts is able to be measured more <br />accurately.. The EAW had earlier stated that 0.8 acres of wetlands would be <br />impacted.~ Based on the field delineation, a total of 1.16 acres will be <br />impacted. As the project continues through the design process the <br />minimization of these impacts will continue to be a focus of the project. It is <br />recognized, however, that since some impacts cannot be avoided, mitigation <br />will be necessary. <br /> <br />Storm <br /> <br />Water RUnoff <br /> <br />Re: Non-point Source Pollution <br /> <br /> The Council's comments reflect policy adoption measures which the community <br /> must add)pt to conform with MC policies. With regard to this project <br /> specificaliy, a NPDES stormwater discharge permit will be required for <br /> construcl~ion activities. Best Management Practices for erosion & sedimentation <br /> control at~d protection of water quality will be incorporated as a part of the <br /> design and permit approval process. The design of the sedimentation basins <br /> must similarly comply with BMP/NURP guidelines. <br /> <br />Ramsev - Davt°~n Mississippi River Corridor <br /> <br />Re- MC has not committed support to this crossing. <br /> <br />It is recognized that the-MC has not committed its support to this crossing. <br />Nevertheless, the crossing is an element of the communities' comprehensive <br />plans as ~.well as Anoka County's comprehensive transportation plan. The <br />approachzto the Ra'msey side of the river crossing has been protected through <br />theptattiflg process providing a corridor to link with Trunk Highway 10. Thus, <br />while much work needs to be done, the community will continue to work to <br />assure t~at this important link can become a reality. <br /> <br />DNR COMMEN'jI'S (May 23, 1994) <br /> <br />Public Need <br /> <br /> As indicated in the Alignment Study included as an appendix to the EAW, this <br /> <br />3 <br /> <br /> <br />
