Raatikka, City Engineer City of Ramsey 15153 NW Nowthen Boulevard Anoka, Minnesota 55303 Dear Mr. Raatikka: The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) staff has concluded its review of the River's Bend environmental assessment worksheet (EAW). In general, the staff does not recommend that an environmental impact statement (EIS) be prepared on the project. We understand that the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources is presently reviewing the proposed plat to assure conformance with floodplain and scenic river ordinances. Should the project be substantially reconfigured as a result of this review, please advise us so that we can determine whether additional review by the MPCA is required. The EAW includes generally adequate responses to the issues which have been raised by the staff in previous discussions with you. With specific reference to noise and dust impacts of construction, we recommend that the city include the mitiga- tive measures discussed in the EAW in local permitting documents and plat ap- provals as may be appropriate. Additional mitigative measures which may be available include selective grading and staging of the project, timely job site and haul road maintenance, and cessation of operations during high winds. Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the project. Should you have any questions, please contact Eric Kilberg of my staff at 296-7795. Sincerely, Deborah R.
