- 2 - Anoka indicated the city would support modifications in the'design of the Anoka interceptor if the local level of service remains essentially the same as provided by the current design. The main concern is the location of the lift station in the lower segment of the interceptor. Anoka prefers a location near the intersection of Park Street and Cressy Avenue. This will be discussed at a meeting between Anoka and the'MWCC in the immediate future. The current schedule for the Anoka interceptor is to obtain local agreement on a revised design and modify the plans and specifica- tions during 1980, and to then construct the facility with anticipated completion in early 1982. 201 Northwest Area Study Pre,err. ed Al~ternative Construction of the CAB interceptor to phase out .the Anoka treatment plant is the preferred alternative of the MWCC 201 Northwest Area Study and the affected communities. ConstruCtion of the CAB interceptor to serve southern Champlin and northern Brooklyn Park by the mid-i980's is also needed to support urbanization consistent with the Metropolitan Council's Development Framework. A determination of the grant eligibility of the CAB interceptor cannot be made until Brooklyn Park and Champlin complete local 201 alternative studies to identify cost-effective solutions to identified local pollution problems. These local studies are not anticipated to be completed until summer 1981. To facilitate the implementation of the CAB interceptor, the MWCC and Metropolitan Council staffs proposed the following strategy which was generally endorsed by the CAB Committee. J Plans and specifications for the full CAB interceptor would be prepared (using metropolitan funds-) concurrently with the Brooklyn Park and Champlin local 201 altenrative studies and coordihated. with the design of the Brooklyn Park and Champlin local collection systems. At the completion of the local 201 studies and the plans and specifications in late summer of 1981, a grant eligibility determination could be obtained from PCAo If the interceptor is grant eligible, it would be constructed and the Anoka plant phased out by 1984. If the interceptor is not grant eligible, it would be constructed with metropolitan funds to serve northern Brooklyn Park and southern Champlin by 1984, and grants to design and construct an expanded Anoka plant or the phase-out of the plant would be requested from PCA. The expanded plant would then serve approximately to the year 2000 when the CAB interceptor would be extended to phase it out. It was felt this strategy offers flexibility in terms of trying to secure grant participation, while maintaining reasonable progress towards providing needed metropolitan sewer service. Metropolitan Council staff will prepare a proposed amendment to the 208 Water Quality Plan, directing the MWCC to prepare plans and specifications for the CAB interceptor by summer 1981, and as a basis for authorizing MWCC requests for metropolitan funding for the plans and specifications. This proposed amendment will be presented for Metropolitan Council action following its review with the CAB Committee at the meeting on April 7 in Champlin. LS: im
