Extent to Which Environmental Effects can be Anticipated and Controlled Minnesota Rules 4410.1700 Subp. 7 (D) indicates the final factor the City must consider is the"extent to which environmental effects can be anticipated and controlled as a result of other environmental studies undertaken by public agencies or the project proposer, including other EISs." The City's findings are set forth below. 1. The proposed project design,plans, EAW,related studies, and mitigation measures apply knowledge, approaches, standards, and best management practices gained from previous experience and projects that have, in general, successfully mitigated potential offsite environmental effects. 2. The EAW, in conjunction with this document, contains or references the known studies that provide information or guidance regarding environmental effects that can be anticipated and controlled. 3. Other projects studied under environmental reviews in Minnesota have included studies and mitigation measures comparable to those included in this EAW. 4. There are no elements of the project that pose the potential for significant environmental effects that cannot be addressed by the project design, assessment,permitting and development processes and by ensuring conformance with regional and local plans. 5. The environmental effects of this development can be anticipated and controlled by the City's development application process and other regulatory processes. 6. Considering the results of environmental review and permitting processes for similar projects,the City of Ramsey finds that the environmental effects of the project can be adequately anticipated and controlled. Based on the EAW, comments received,responses to comments, and criteria above,the City of Ramsey finds that Trott Brook North does not have the potential for significant environmental effects and does not require the preparation of an EIS. 10
