STATE OF <br /> <br /> DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES <br /> METRO REGION WATERS - 1200 WARNER ROAD, ST. PAUL, MN 55106 <br />PHONE NO. 296-7523 <br /> <br />FILE NO. <br /> <br />August 16, 1990 <br /> <br />Ms. Sylvia Frolik <br />City of Ramsey <br />15153 Nowthen Blvd. NW <br />Ramsey, MN 55303 <br /> <br />Dear Ms. Frolik: <br /> <br />RE: PROPOSED FAYE ADDITION, CITY OF RAMSEY, ANOKA COUNTY <br /> <br />With the assistance of intern Bob Effinger, I have reviewed the <br />proposed Faye Addition and have the following comments: <br /> <br />1) No part of the platted area lies within <br /> floodplain; therefore, there appears to be <br /> concerns. <br /> <br />the lO0-year <br />no floodplain <br /> <br />2) <br /> <br />The subdivision lies within the Critical River Corridor. Under <br />the City of Ramsey Environmental Protection Ordinance, the <br />minimum lot size allowed in the corridor for the proposed lots <br />is 20,000 square feet and the minimum lot width is 125-feet. <br />It appears that only 6 of the 74 lots meet the minimum lot <br />size, and few meet the minimum lot width. All lots appear to <br />meet the minimum ordinary high water setback of lO0-feet. <br /> <br />3) <br /> <br />Erosion control practices should be adequately designed for <br />site characteristics, as outlined in "Protecting Water Quality <br />for Urban Areas, Best Management Practices for Minnesota" which <br />is available from the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (Wayne <br />Anderson @ 296-7323). <br /> <br />4) <br /> <br />Construction dewatering which exceeds 10,000 gallons per day or <br />i million gallons per year would require a water appropriation <br />permit. <br /> <br />Thank you for the opportunity to comment. Please call if you have <br />questions. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />Tom Hovey <br />Area Hydrologist <br /> <br />T270:kap <br /> <br />CC'. <br /> <br />Rand K1 uegel, EQBAN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER <br /> <br /> <br />
