The total TP load into Lake Emma is 5,676 lbs/year. Lake Emma will require a 2,224 total TP load reduction, with a 1761 lbs/year load reduction from Lake Ann specifically given it is located directly upstream. Projects that reduce the amount of sediment (and associated TP) entering CD 10 will address the load reductions called for in the Lake Ann and Emma TMDL Implementation Plan (Wenck Associates, 2012).

A portion of these funds may be used to seek administrative efficiencies through shared resources by multiple local governmental units.","The primary measureable outcome of this project is the reduction of sediment transport within the watershed. This project will reduce an estimated 670 tons of sediment per year. Sediment reduction will result in lower turbidity and improved water quality within Trout Brook, a designated trout stream, and lower turbidity and improved water quality in the Cannon River, which is impaired for excess turbidity.

Sediment reduction strategies have been prioritized in local water management plans and through TMDL implementation plans for the Cannon River and Trout Brook. Specific BMPs have been targeted for this project based on a completed subwatershed analysis which evaluated potential practices that would yield the greatest sediment reductions. 346 projects were identified and ranked through the subwatershed analysis, and field reconnaissance has been completed for all identified practices to determine feasibility. A cost-benefit ranking was developed to prioritize projects based on the cost per ton of sediment reduction over the contract life of each practice. Of the 346 practices that were identified and ranked, efforts are already underway and funding has been secured to install many of the top 50 ranked practices. This project is Phase 2 of the Trout Brook Watershed Initiative and will focus on the next-highest ranked practices. This project specifically targets practices with an annualized sediment reduction cost of less than $30 per ton of sediment.

The first three phases have been very successful in terms of landowner interest and strong partnerships with NRCS leading to more matching cost share dollars than anticipated, resulting in additional projects. In total, 34 water and sediment control basins and 17 grade stabilization structures have been installed using $324,579.79 in CWF grants while also leveraging $239,653.08 through NRCS's Environmental Quality Incentives Program (EQIP) and $87,587.42 in landowner match. A LiDAR study and follow-up field inspections were done on a number of gully sites within the aforementioned HUCs and 15 priority sites were identified. These particular HUCs were chosen due to the high level of turbidity and low dissolved oxygen within that stretch of the North Fork Crow River, which has led to biological and turbidity impairments. This project will drastically reduce the amount of sediment and phosphorus being exported from the targeted stretch of the Crow River by constructing BMPs, including grade stabilization structures and water and sediment control basins, at the headward eroding extent of these gullies. The installed BMPs will stop the gullies' advancement and thus help to heal the lower stretch over time. This project is targeting the western half of the North Fork Crow River in Wright County, after the first three phases of the project focused on a similar area with great success and will be using the original BMP sites as examples for future potential project landowners.

Sealing old deep multi-aquifer wells is a priority activity in Source Water Protection Plans.",,,,"LOCAL LEVERAGED FUNDS",,,,,"Faribault, City of","Local/Regional Government",,,"This project will ensure that two old municipal wells within the city of Faribault are properly sealed. Well unique number 220997 is a 1000-foot-deep multi- aquifer well which is located within the Inner well management Zone (200') of Faribault well #1 which is a primary well for the city. The outer casing is a 12"" in diameter. The depth of this casing is unknown. It is also possible the well may telescope down in diameter. Well unique number 277577 is a 750' deep multi- aquifer well located in the same area as the other well but outside the Inner Well Management Zone for any existing public water supply wells. The outer casing of this well is also 12"" in diameter. The depth of this casing is unknown. It is also possible this well may telescope down in diameter. Both wells penetrate three of the common aquifers within the region. These wells are thought to have been constructed in the late 1890's based upon available information. Based upon the age, depth, and construction these wells not only pose a risk to public water supply well(s) but also private wells and the aquifer itself. These well have had casings added to extend to the surface. There is cement located in well unique number 220997 and other material in well #277577 so they will need to be drilled out to determine the sealing status of the wells. MDH well management staff will make the determination what needs to be completed to properly seal the wells including removing obstructions and/or perforating or casings. The city and MDH have been in contact over the years regarding the sealing status of these wells. This project will result in the determination that the wells are properly sealed or will result in the wells being properly sealed. Due to the depth and potential steps that may be required to properly seal these wells the cost to seal these wells will exceed the costs associated with sealing other public water supplies wells. They will need to be set up over and drilled out to verify the depth of concrete and other material present to verify sealing status. If other material not associated with an approved sealing technique is within the well it will need to be removed prior to sealing. It is also possible that casings will need to perforated prior to sealing. All these factors plus the depth of the well(s) lead to the significant cost of sealing these wells. The main purpose of this grant request is to make sure that these wells do not negatively impact any public and private wells or groundwater resources within the region. The abandoned wells unique numbers 220997 and 277577 that this grant will be used to investigate and properly seal if necessary are in the highly vulnerable portion of the DWSMA ",2024-03-15,,"Clean Water Fund","In Progress",,,Michael,Glende,"Faribault, City of","208 First Ave NW",Faribault,MN,55021,507-344-2222,mglende@ci.faribault.mn.us,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources",,Rice,,"Cannon River",https://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/fy-2023-cwf-projects-practices-drinking-water-quality-application,https://www.bwsr.state.mn.us/board,https://www.bwsr.state.mn.us/board,"Annie Felix-Gerth",no

In order to protect Dakota County's primary drinking water source, this project proposes to support the County well seal grant cost-share program. The project will provide 50 percent cost-share funding to reimburse landowners for the sealing of unused wells. The goal is to permanently seal between 80-100 unused/abandoned wells throughout the county. Unsealed water supply wells that are not in use pose a threat to health, safety, and the environment by providing a potential conduit for contamination to go from the surface down to drinking water aquifers. In addition, Minnesota Statute 103I requires well owners to seal unused wells.

One of the best ways to keep sediment from entering the Cannon River is to install vegetative buffers on the smaller tributaries in the upper reaches of the watershed. This project is important as it aims to help identify strategic locations where buffers are needed and to assist landowners to install buffers that will directly help reduce sedimentation within the watershed. Doing so will help the watershed work towards its goal of lessening the turbidity impairment for the Cannon River. The Cannon River Watershed Partnership (CRWP) began a project a few years ago to map the land use in riparian areas for a few of the counties of the watershed. This data is important for Soil and Water Conservation Districts (SWCDs) within the watershed in order to target the most effective places in the landscape for buffers and other conservation practices. One objective of this project is to complete the mapping project for Waseca and Le Sueur Counties, which will result in the majority of the watersheds riparian areas being mapped. This project will also provide incentives to landowners in Rice, Goodhue, Waseca, and Le Sueur Counties to install buffers and to sign up for conservation programs such as the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) to provide long term protection and buffers of streams within the watershed. Currently, more than 100 acres of new buffers are already enrolled to be installed because of this project.

A project has been identified in the Cannon lakes region and a feasibility study has been completed that will reduce runoff volume and reduce flooding potential downstream on CD 40 in Le Sueur County. Education and Outreach funds will focus on developing a soil health team throughout the area by: hosting peer to peer events and 3 soil health events, education to homeowners and lake associations through workshops, presentations, and meetings, hosting 2 well testing clinics, and a tour for elected officials. The goal is to implement practices that increase organic matter on 350 acres (plan goal is 16,711 acres) annually in areas that were identified as tier 1 lakes and streams in the plan. The goal for structural practices is to implement 36 structures (plan goal is 7,192 acres) of cropland in the tier 1 stream areas. The reduction numbers from these practices will be compared to those in the plan at the five-year mark using HSPF-SAM.

To address this risk in the region, there needs to be an increase in the use of nitrogen best management practices and agronomic rates of nitrogen need to be fine-tuned to balance production with environmental degradation. In addition, potential point sources of nutrient contamination in groundwater need to be addressed wherever possible. This project will have three components that will address these needs. 1) This project will fund incentive payments for the use of nitrogen Best Management Practices (BMPs). Use of the University of Minnesota's BMPs for nitrogen fertilizer in the region is known to reduce the risk of nitrogen escaping the soils and into the drinking water supply of the area. Incentive payments will be given to promote the adoption of the University of Minnesota nitrogen rates to meet crop needs and for the use of split nitrogen applications at University of Minnesota rates. 2) This project will fund replicated on-farm nitrogen plots. These plots could be a nitrogen rate, timing, source or placement plot. These advanced plots provide producers with much needed local nitrogen fertilizer information that is connected to soil types and crop uptake needs in Southeastern Minnesota. These plots would be used to support the recommendations from the University of Minnesota and continue to show that the U of MN nitrogen recommended BMPs remain the most profitable for this area of Minnesota. 3) This project will use cost share funding for local well sealing. It is well known that unsealed wells are a direct conduit for contamination of groundwater. Availability of funding via cost share helps to assist landowners with the financial burden associated with the proper care and sealing of open wells on their properties.

The VRWJPO and partners will perform an alum treatment in Alimagnet Lake to reduce the amount of internal phosphorus load within the lake. Alimagnet Lake is a nutrient (phosphorus) impaired water in Apple Valley and Burnsville with significant public use that receives stormwater runoff from a 985-acre urban subwatershed. The TMDL for Alimagnet Lake was completed in 2015 and identified both external and internal phosphorus load reductions needed to meet water quality standards. Once the TMDL and WRAPS were approved, the VRWJPO and Cities completed a subwatershed assessment (SWA) that identified targeted, prioritized, and measurable practices to reduce external load and have systematically been implementing projects identified in the SWA. The partners have reduced external phosphorus load by 64.4 lbs, which is more than the needed external phosphorus load reduction identified in the TMDL. With the external load addressed, the focus is now shifting to the internal phosphorus load. Per BWSR CWF Grant Policy requirements for internal phosphorus load projects, the VRWJPO and Cities completed an alum treatment feasibility study for the lake. The result of the study provides significant information about the lake alum treatment including treatment planning elements, dosing and timing recommendations for the treatment, a cost estimate, and an estimated internal phosphorus load reduction of 115 lbs, which equates to 11.5 lbs/year assuming a 10-year lifespan. The alum treatment's estimated pollutant reduction would bring the in-lake concentrations of total phosphorus to levels below the water quality standards, so the lake could be de-listed. Alimagnet Lake is one of five lakes identified as a recreational lake in the Vermillion River Watershed Management Plan. The lake is a high priority for restoration for the VRWJPO and partner cities. The lake has a very engaged lake association that also wants improved water quality and have been active in addressing lake water quality issues. The lake is surrounded primarily by homes, but the cities share a large park on the lake's southern shore, which gets significant use from pet owners, cross-country skiers, walkers, snowshoers, skijorers, canoeists, kayakers, and cyclists.

",,,,"LOCAL LEVERAGED FUNDS",,,,,"Apple Valley, City of","Local/Regional Government",,,"The City of Apple Valley will continue efforts to improve water quality in Keller Lake by expanding Whitney Pond (KL-P2) to provide phosphorus load reductions contributing to the lake's nutrient impairment. Whitney Pond is a 2-acre stormwater basin located at Burnsville's Lac Lavon Park and Keller Park in Apple Valley. The pond is in Burnsville on land owned by the City of Burnsville. The pond treats stormwater from a significant portion of the Keller Lake watershed in Apple Valley that would otherwise drain to Keller Lake untreated. Keller Lake is a DNR classified natural environment lake that has been listed on the impaired waters list for nutrients since 2002. Keller Lake is tributary to Crystal Lake in Burnsville. Crystal Lake is a recreational lake that was delisted from the impaired waters list in 2018. This targeted project will help protect Crystal Lake and provide measurable improvements to Keller Lake nutrient loads. Since the construction of Whitney Pond, the Crystal, Keller, and Lee Lakes Nutrient Impairment and Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) Report and Earley Lake Water Quality Assessment was completed in 2011 outlining a wasteload reduction of 130 lbs of Total Phosphorus (TP) per year for the City of Apple Valley. In 2017, the City of Apple Valley completed the Keller Lake Subwatershed Assessment (Barr, 2017) to evaluate options for additional stormwater quality treatment within the Keller Lake watershed. Because Whitney Pond does not achieve all the nutrient load reduction required by the Keller Lake TMDL, one of the most efficient targeted locations identified in the subwatershed assessment for potential water quality improvements was an expansion of Whitney Pond. As the final pond before Keller Lake, the existing pond is overcapacity for its current loading from the large contributing watershed. The project will make use of green space in public ownership to expand the treatment volume provided by the existing BMP to achieve an additional 7 lbs of total phosphorus treatment annually. By implementing this project, along with other projects installed in the watershed, the City would meet 79% of the assigned wasteload allocation for external loading. The proposed expansion would be located primarily in open space owned by the City of Apple Valley, but would also impact land located within the City of Burnsville. The City has been working with a consultant to complete a WBIF (Watershed Based Implementation Funds) grant-funded feasibility study on options for expanding the pond, which has included reviewing multiple concepts and public engagement. The pond's location near two parks with heavily used trail system make it a suitable and sensible location for public outreach. Educational signage around the proposed project would provide an opportunity for public education on water quality and the targeted approaches the City has taken to meet our water quality goals. Including a native buffer around the pond edge will enhance pollinator habitat in the neighborhood and surrounding parkland. With support from Dakota County , the BDWMO, and the City of Burnsville, the City is eager to implement this targeted stormwater treatment project to achieve reduced TP loading to the lake by approximately 7 additional pounds of TP per year. The project is on targeted priority implementation lists for the City and the Black Dog WMO. The project compliments previously completed external load reduction projects installed by Apple Valley and Burnsville and also supports recently completed internal load reductions, including in-lake alum treatments completed in 2019 and 2021, and native aquatic plant transplant projects that occurred in 2020 and 2022.",2024-04-01,,"Clean Water Fund","In Progress",,,Samantha,Berger,"Apple Valley, City of","7100 West 147th Street","Apple Valley",MN,55124,952-953-2400,sberger@cityofapplevalley.org,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources",,Dakota,,"Lower Minnesota River ",https://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/fy24-cwf-keller-lake-targeted-stormwater-treatment-project,https://www.bwsr.state.mn.us/board,https://www.bwsr.state.mn.us/board,"Annie Felix-Gerth",no

The watershed is in northwest Wright County and is encompassed by Albion Township. The goal of this application is to improve the quality of water entering Granite Lake by reducing total suspended solids and total phosphorous through construction of best management practices. This watershed has been the target of several modelling efforts. An assessment, conducted in 2017, used PTMApp version 2.0.27, in 2021 new data became available as part of the North Fork Crow Watershed rerun with version 3.0.0271. The models were combined with SWCD staff review of locations to determine the feasibility of the practices PTMApp generated. Based on PTMApp output data and staff assessments, 10 water and sediment control basins were chosen to further investigate and prioritize for possible installation, 1 wetland restoration is being targeted in the watershed but the magnitude of the project requires collaboration of multiple landowners and funding sources. Additionally, staff set a goal of 100 acres of source reduction practices (cover crops, no till, prescribed grazing, etc.). Using this grant we intend to continue working with agricultural producer and landowners to implement practices generated by PTMApp. It is estimated that if the 10 water and sediment control basins are built and 100 acres of source reduction are implemented it would reduce the amount of sediment for Granite lake by 192 tons/year from structural practices and 108 tons/year from source reduction and the amount total phosphorus by 33 lbs TP/year from structural practices and 18 lbs TP/year from source reduction.

The projects have been identified and prioritized through the watershed-wide IVC Stabilization and Volume Reduction Study and are clearly targeted in the Lower Mississippi River Watershed Management Organization's (LMRWMO) Watershed Management Plan. Interstate Valley Creek drains through a steep ravine with a highly urbanized watershed that was developed without stormwater management and volume control practices. The area has limited access and has substantial active bank erosion, carrying sediment to the Mississippi River, which is impaired for total suspended solids (TSS). The project will also reduce E-coli from reaching IVC, addressing that impairment. The project includes three large scale streambank stabilization practices using rock toe stabilization and native vegetation bioengineering. It also includes three large scale stormwater bioretention and weir creation projects to reduce in-stream erosion and address the root causes of erosion: excess stormwater volume and peak flows. The six projects (shown in the attached graphic) will reduce total suspended solids (TSS) by 284 tons/year and phosphorus (TP) by 270 lbs/year. Interstate Valley Creek runs through Valley Park in Mendota Heights which is a regional amenity and signature natural area within the watershed. The Park is receiving significant investment from both the City and Dakota County in separate adjacent natural areas restoration projects as well as upgrading of the trail along the stream corridor to be part of the new Dakota County River to River Greenway. The project will be completed in partnership with the City of Mendota Heights, Dakota County, and the Lower Mississippi River Watershed Management Organization.

A portion of Dodd Blvd, a driveway, and the parking lot drain to a stormwater pond at the north end of the park where water is retained, treated, and reused to irrigate two ball fields. This stormwater reuse project was constructed by the Vermillion River Watershed Joint Powers Organization (VRWJPO) and the City of Lakeville in 2010 to meet VRWJPO and city goals. Runoff from the park drains into the Middle Creek tributary (reach 546) and downstream to a confluence with North Creek (545) and the Vermillion River (546). Stormwater contributes sediment, nutrients, bacteria, and heat to reaches impaired for bacteria, dissolved oxygen, fish and macroinvertebrates, degrading these resources. A primary cause of the water quality conditions in this subwatershed, and downstream, is the inability to infiltrate water due to tight soils. Dakota County and City of Lakeville plan to reconstruct part of Dodd Blvd just south of King Park in 2016. The project will provide stormwater treatment to meet regulatory requirements, but due to poor soil conditions, infiltration cannot be achieved. A pump and irrigation system will be installed and will use stormwater from the newly constructed stormwater pond to irrigate two additional ball fields. This system will serve as a surrogate for the much needed infiltration, with plans to expand the system to more ball fields in the future. A reuse system will reduce bacteria, nutrient, and thermal loads to Middle Creek, while providing nutrient benefits for park landscaping. This system would reduce stormwater volume (415,562 cubic feet/year) and thermal load to Middle Creek and downstream reaches; remove sediment (1,416 lbs/year); remove phosphorus (4.3 lbs/year); reduce E. coli (2.4 x 1016 cfu/year) decrease demand on Lakeville's water supply during summer months (3.1 million gallons/year); and maintain landscaping at King Park.

LHRP features nearly 2,000 acres of protected park lands, is a premier water resources destination within the south metro, and receives over 700,000 visitors per year. Dakota County conducted a subwatershed assessment for LHRP in 2017 that identified internal and external pollutant loading sources and identified targeted best management practices to address nuisance algae blooms and declining water clarity trends in Schulze and Jensen lakes. Of all the park amenities, Schulze Lake Beach draws the highest amount of park visits. However, despite Schulze Lake's status as the most popular lake within the region for swimming and other water-based recreation, its declining water clarity is a concern of many visitors. Additionally, park volunteers and staff have measured declining clarity within Jensen Lake which is located at the headwaters of the LHRP lake chain and is a common starting point for the popular LHRP canoe route. Dakota County proposes to construct two regional iron-enhanced sand filtration (IESF) practices to achieve the load reduction goals set forth in the LHRP Subwatershed Assessment Report to protect Jensen and Schulze lakes and prevent them from being listed on the 303(d) Impaired Waters List. The first IESF will be constructed at a major stormwater inlet to Jensen Lake and is estimated to achieve 100% of the total phosphorus (TP) load reduction goal (8.4 lbs/yr).

Both lakes are approximately 40 acres in size and surrounded by watersheds with moderate to low imperviousness. Both lakes are included on the MPCA's 303(d) list as impaired for aquatic recreation due to excessive nutrients. Lake Augusta and Sunfish Lake were included in a watershed restoration and protection strategies (WRAPS) study and total maximum daily load (TMDL) performed from 2012 to 2014. The WRAPS study identified internal loading as the primary source of phosphorus to each lake and recommended in-lake alum treatments to improve water quality in each lake to achieve MPCA water quality standards. The goal of the Lake Augusta and Sunfish Lake alum treatments is to reduce internal phosphorus loading in each lake by at least 80 percent, resulting in phosphorus load reductions of 252 lbs/year in Lake Augusta and 129 lbs/year in Sunfish Lake. These reductions will meet the load reductions identified in the WRAPS and TMDL report and are essentially the only feasible options to achieve MPCA water quality standards in these lakes. The watersheds to these lakes are not densely developed and stormwater best management practices are already present, reducing phosphorus loading to the lakes from external sources. In addition to the alum treatment, the LMRWMO will implement a voluntary rain barrel program, a shoreline buffer survey on Sunfish Lake to identify potential locations for improvements, and targeted communication with residents to encourage buffer enhancement. These efforts will further reduce the phosphorus reaching the lake from external sources. Due to the very limited external load, alum treatment of these lakes is expected to be effective for 20 years or more. The Lake Augusta and Sunfish Lake alum treatment project will be completed in partnership with the Cities of Mendota Heights, Sunfish Lake, and local property owners.

There are two components to this project. The first initiative provides costshare funding incentives and technical assistance to landowners who install structural BMPs such as raingardens, water and sediment control basins and grassed waterways. The second initiative uses grant funding to provide 10-year extensions to expiring Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) contracts that are not eligible for federal re-enrollment. Fields that are highly susceptible to erosion are targeted for protection through this initiative. The grasses and native prairie vegetation on these highly sensitive lands retain runoff and hold soil in place while providing high quality wildlife habitat. In 2010, several BMPs were installed through this project. A 500 square foot raingarden installed at Highview Christiana church will treat and infiltrate stormwater from a large parking lot for years to come. The reconstruction of a grassed waterway in Hampton Township will reduce erosion from cultivated land adjacent to a ditch and six water and sediment control basins installed in the Trout Brook watershed will eliminate approximately 104 tons of sediment per year caused by gully erosion.

The Partridge River is a major tributary to the headwaters of the Crow Wing River, a highly recreated river for fishing and water enthusiasts. The Partridge River (07010106-518) was placed on the EPA's 303(d) list of impaired waters in 2014 for high E. coli contributions by livestock operations. E. coli reductions will be achieved through closure of nine outdated manure storage basins, installation of 6 livestock access control projects, increased buffer areas, and the construction of winter manure storage areas. Seven of the nine failure manure storage basins are placed in sandier soils within 300 feet of the river. Average water tables in the area indicate depths of 4.5 feet placing the basin floors at or into the water table. EPA studies have shown high levels of bacteria accumulating in shallow aquifers from outdated, poorly lined manure basins, or simply excavated into native soils. Livestock with unrestricted access to streams provide a direct source of E. coli to streams by defecation. In addition, this process loads nitrogen, phosphorus, and other nutrients directly to the stream. In conjunction, increased buffer areas provide filtering of run off from livestock wastes leading to a reduction of E. coli loading.

Particulate phosphorus will be removed as water passes through the sand and dissolved phosphorus would chemically bind to the iron in the filter. The second enhancement is a phased application of aluminum sulfate (alum) to the pond. The alum application will be distributed over three years to maintain healthy pH levels in the pond.

The WQDSA will provide land and water managers with geospatial data and online tools to prioritize, market, and implement actions on the landscape to achieve water quality objectives identified in local and state water plans and to ensure that public funding decisions are strategic and defensible. This project takes advantage of new methods and tools to produce and integrate more advanced water quality data into the WQDSA for better prioritization and targeting of practices in the Red River Basin.

Utilizing the RIM conservation easement program, conservation easements on riparian lands adjacent to public waters, are purchased. Lands that were targeted were new or existing USDA Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) contracts with cropping history. Participating landowners receive a payment to retire land in agricultural production and to establish permanent buffers of native vegetation that must be at least 50 feet where possible and no more than 100 feet.Buffer strips of native vegetation will be established on the above easement acres, all of which are adjacent to public waters. The program is targeted to critical CRP acres so these areas would be permanently protected instead of enrolled in short-term easements. These buffers slow and prevent sediment from entering lakes, rivers and streams, reduce hydrologic impacts to surface waters and increase infiltration for groundwater recharge. Minnesota currently has just over 200,000 acres of Conservation Reserve Program in buffer practices at various stages of their 10-15 year contracts, some soon to expire. The buffer initiative compliments other programs, both existing and yet to be developed, over the next 25 years. A statewide sign up began Dec. 1, 2009.

The projects must be of long-lasting public benefit, include a local match, and be consistent with TMDL implementation plans or local water management plans. Watershed district and watershed management organization staff and administration may be used for local match. Priority may be given to school projects that can be used to demonstrate water retention practices. Up to five percent may be used for administering the grants (2010 - Runoff Reduction)",,"In 2010, this project resulted in construction of 4,580 square feet of rain garden area.

",,97600,,,,,,"Gun Club Watershed Management Organization","Local/Regional Government","Schwanz Lake is an 11.5-acre shallow lake in southeast Eagan that was found to be impaired in 2006 due to excessive levels of phosphorus. The land area draining to the lake is 762 acres, but a small a 28-acre residential neighborhood was found to disproportionately contribute 24 percent (roughly 14 lbs/yr) of the phosphorus, according to a 2010 study of phosphorus sources. The neighborhood was developed before Eagan established water quality requirements for stormwater retention ponds and the neighborhood drains runoff directly to the lake through a single pipe. The neighborhood has no available space for new retention ponds, but because soils are suitable for infiltration, plans focused on constructing small bioretention basins along street rights-of-way. Bioretention basins (also called raingardens) capture and rapidly absorb stormwater runoff from streets and driveways. Computer modeling estimates that 5,100 square feet of raingarden area along streets would reduce the flow of phosphorus into Schwanz Lake by 72 percent. The area was surveyed to identify optimum locations for raingardens and to determine whether adjacent residents would accept and maintain the raingardens once they were installed. During construction, soils are deeply loosened and special soils and plants are added to help absorb stormwater runoff. By the end of 2010, 4,580 square feet of raingarden area has been constructed. In 2011, an estimated 1,530 square feet of additional raingarden area will be constructed. Neighborhood residents help to plant the sites with flowering perennials and shrubs and agree to maintain them. To measure actual runoff reduction, the City of Eagan installed a flow meter in the drainage pipe to the lake. Initial indications are this project will meet or exceed estimated phosphorus reductions.",,,,,"Clean Water Fund",Completed,,,,,,,,,,,,Restoration/Enhancement,"Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources",,Dakota,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/schwanz-lake-direct-drainage-targeted-neighborhood-runoff-reduction-project,,,"Nicole Clapp",No

When these 60 gullies are stabilized, sediment loading within the watershed will be reduced by 3,300 tons/yr and total phosphorus will be reduced by 370 lbs/year. The total sediment reduction associated with this project is 32 percent of the 10,373 tons/yr goal set by the TMDL for the SBBR. The BRRWD is expected to receive federal National Water Quality Initiative (NWQI) funding in 2024 through the NRCS which will help to stretch funding to get more conservation on the ground. The focus will be on upland areas, away from the SBBR channel corridor, to improve water quality within the SBBR watershed. This project, the ""South Branch Buffalo River Watershed Restoration - Phase 2"", is the continuation of the ""South Branch Buffalo River Watershed Restoration"" which includes installation of 50 sediment BMPs as well as phase 1 and 2 of the ""South Branch Buffalo River Restoration"" projects, which include installation of 72 side inlets adjacent to the SBBR and approximately 9 miles of stream restoration. In total, combining the proposed project with previous efforts, the sediment loading within the watershed will be reduced by 8,500 tons/yr (82% of the 10,373 tons/yr goal set by the TMDL). In addition, this project continues an ongoing effort over the past decade to improve water quality, manage erosion, reduce sediment, and enhance natural resources throughout the watershed. The Stream Power Index (SPI) Tool and the Prioritize, Target, and Measure Application (PTMApp) have been used to determine areas of high concentrated flow within the SBBR watershed. Based on this analysis, sediment BMP locations were identified that should be stabilized to repair gullies and ensure a reduction of future erosion. Using information from the PTMApp analysis, the total sediment load from all 60 gullies is 3,300 tons/yr and the total phosphorus load is 370 lbs/yr. Each gully was also ranked from most sediment contributing to the least and grouped into High and Medium categories.

This project is needed because, like other urban properties that developed before stormwater regulations, most government owned facilities were designed and constructed without optimal water quality features. Left as they are, the existing roofs, parking lots, and other hard surfaces at sites like city halls, libraries, fire stations, and schools will continue to contribute polluted runoff to our lakes, streams and wetlands. This project uses mapping technology and pollutant load analyses to select and install innovative stormwater practices that have the most benefit, for the least cost, in priority locations. The locations are identified in local water plans, Total Maximum Daily Load studies or local capital improvement plans. In 2010, four local government partners completed stormwater retrofit practices at five sites that treat stormwater runoff from a total of 13.6 acres of hard surfaces. Combined, these sites are designed to capture approximately 4,500 lbs of sediment, 8 lbs of phosphorus and reduce runoff volume by three million gallons (9 acre-ft) annually.The Partnership gets conservation on the ground because Clean Water Funds leverage and supplement resources that local governments can bring to projects. Partners can also contribute by providing the available land space needed for the BMP, permits, construction administration (contractor, materials, and equipment) and future maintenance costs.

The 7-acre lake receives runoff from a 175-acre urban watershed that was developed in the 1950's and currently provides very little stormwater treatment. The eastern shoreline is within Thompson County Park, which features a fishing pier, event center, and miles of regionally connected trails. The west shoreline of the lake abuts the St. Croix Lutheran School. Thompson Lake is impaired for recreational use due to excessive nutrients, and is on the MPCA's 2014 Impaired Waters list. A watershed restoration and protection strategies (WRAPS) study and total maximum daily load (TMDL) developed from 2012 to 2014 identified watershed runoff as the primary source of phosphorus to the lake; the TMDL identified a phosphorus waste load reduction of 30% necessary to achieve MPCA water quality standards. The proposed project will treat stormwater runoff prior to discharge into Thompson Lake, thereby reducing phosphorus concentrations in the lake, improving lake clarity, and leading to removal from the Impaired Waters list. The project includes construction of a series of upland stormwater basins at the north end of the lake, inside Thompson County Park, to treat runoff from 83% of the watershed (145 acres). The project will include sediment forebays at storm sewer outfalls, a stormwater wetland/pond, and a stormwater reuse irrigation system that draws water from the wetland and irrigates nearby parkland. Water quality modeling indicates that the proposed project will reduce phosphorus loading to the lake by 39%, achieving the waste load reduction identified in the TMDL. The project will provide additional public benefits including native habitat enhancement, education opportunities, trail improvements, and improved aesthetics.

Additional goals are to develop Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) for impaired stream reaches and Rice Lake, which will be documented in a TMDL Report. The consultant will apply the existing calibrated and validated Zumbro River Watershed HSPF model to construct load duration curves to develop TMDLs. The contractor will deliver a technical memorandum documenting the sensitivity analyses, all of the modeling files in the form of a model package, as well as a draft and final TMDL report.
