sewer desigm is compatible with the City's comprehensive plan and the CSPP. <br /> <br />Will new or expanded utilities, roads, other infrastructure or public services be required <br />to serve the project? <br />If yes, describe the new or additional infrastructure or services needed. (Notei any <br />infrastructure that is a connected action with respect to the project must be assessed in <br />the EAW; see EAW Guidelines for details.) <br /> <br /> [_~ Yes <br /> Although thc trunk sewer will not require additional infrastructure, the development planned for its sery. ice area <br /> will. As development of the area progresses, other utilities and infrastructure,-such as mad,s, collector streets, <br /> collector sewers, potable water distribution systems, storm water collection and treatment systems, schools, police, <br /> and tire protection, and other urban services will be needed to service the area. <br /> <br /> ' <br /> <br />Minnesota Rule part 4410.1700, subpart 7, item B requires that the RGU consider the <br />"cumulative potential effects of related or anticipated future projects" when determining ' <br />the need for an environmental impact statement. Identify any past, present or reasonably <br />foreseeable future projects that may interact with the project described in this EAW in <br />such a way as to cause cumulative impacts. Describe the nature of the cumulative <br />impacts and summarize any other available information relevant to determining whether <br />there is potential for significant environmental effects due to cumulative impacts (or <br />discuss each cumulative impact under appropriate item(S) elsewhere on this form). <br /> [;tltu~e residential and commercial development of the service area has been considered in the planning of this <br /> project. The trunk sewer has been sized to accommodate ultimate wastewater flows following development of the <br /> service area. The trunk sewer line will be placed in locations that best meet the long:term goals of the community. <br /> There is a competing issue with the goals of many communities in balancing residential development with <br /> agricultural needs, open space, and natural resources while trying to retain a sense of place. Urbanization has <br /> become an issue in many areas, and is only becoming a larger issue because of the need to preserve natural are'as <br /> and open space. Throagh these competing issues, ma.ny environmental resources, former open spaces and farmland <br /> have decreased and infrastructure costs as roads and sewer system extensions have increased. <br /> The potential environmental impacts from future planned development will be mitigated through enforcement of <br /> local, state, and federal ordinances and regulations. Individual development projects may be subject to <br /> environmental review and the preparation of project-specific EAWs or an Alternative Urban Areawide Review <br /> (Al JAR). Any sanitary sewer extensions will require a permit from the MPCA. <br /> <br />30. Other p'otentiai'.
