Necessary repairs include stabilization of streambanks and construction of best management practices to reduce flow velocities, substantially decreasing sediment and phosphorus delivery to Peltier Lake while improving in-channel habitat for fish and macroinvertebrates. This study would provide a detailed analysis of the extent and severity of the problems, recommend BMPs and engineered solutions, and establish expected resource benefit outcomes. 2) Highway 61 Ponds Improvement Scoping: RCWD operates a pair of wet ponds on Ramsey Washington Judicial Ditch 1 (RWJD1) in White Bear Township that provide sediment capture and general water quality treatment for flows to Bald Eagle Lake. These ponds were constructed in the early 1990's and have received little maintenance since that time. RCWD intends to complete maintenance of the outlet structure and removal of accumulated sediment in the very near future. While planning for this work, RCWD intends to complete this study to evaluate options for improvement of the function and efficiency of the existing facility through retrofit enhancements, expansion, or redesign. 3) Johanna Creek Carp Barrier: RCWD continues its work to reduce the viable population of common carp in the Long Lake - Lino Chain of Lakes system. Management of the primary spawning route through Rice Creek has been successful and monitoring has shown that carp are now migrating through Johanna Creek to a series of wetlands to spawn.

Maintaining the lakes water quality is a priority for the GLWMO. A long urbanized area along Aladdin Street in Roseville currently lacks stormwater features to remove pollutants and reduce water volume. The rainwater from this area drains directly to a wetland which is hydrologically connected to Lake Owasso. Adjacent to the residential area is a 0.5 acre parking lot which drains into a ditch which eventually enters the same wetland. The rainwater that runoffs from the parking lot also lacks treatment facilities, and due to an extreme change in grade, is causing major erosion problems. In a cooperative effort, the Grass Lake Watershed Management Organization, Ramsey Conservation District and City of Roseville came up with a solution. The parking lot runoff will be re-routed so it enters the adjacent residential stormwater conveyance system. A bio-infiltration basin will then be installed to capture and treat the combined rainwater runoff from both sites.

The Metropolitan Council will fill an existing knowledge gap in water conservation data in the metropolitan area.  Data gained from this project will be used in water supply planning projections for the metropolitan area.  Private industrial water users will receive site-specific water conservation recommendations.","We chose to investigate and engage about 16% of the applicable businesses based on our assessment of whether the business and industry sectors represented could be reasonably expected to have opportunities for water conservation through process improvements. The outreach method chosen was through email. This was seen as a contemporary and accessible way to reach the audience, but was ultimately found difficult due to lack of publicly available email addresses. However, once prepared, the outreach survey resulted in a good return rate of 39% (33 respondents). It found that factors that motivate implementation of operational changes to capture water conservation savings vary across industries, process needs, and the perceived value of the water resource. In many cases, the survey pointed to a lack of information, focus, or priorities concerning water. Companies have tried some initiatives aimed at water conservation, maybe have water conservation teams, plans, or projects, know what processes use the water, but don’t necessarily have any plans to reduce water use on that process. The anticipated project impact to identify use and opportunities didn’t seem to resonate with the survey respondents as either an opportunity for water and cost savings, or more generally as a call to action across the metro. Except in the seven cases where survey participation ultimately translated into assessment assistance, interaction with MnTAP beyond the survey was limited.Measureable OutcomesAccording to the survey results:42.5% of survey respondents have no water conservation initiatives45% of respondents measure water use on a facility-wide basis, as opposed to a process-by-process basisWater permitting costs are not a constraintWater supply treatment costs are a concernWastewater discharge regulations are a concernFrom the seven anonymous one-day, on-site assessments:Six assessment were performed at food-related faciltiesOne assessment was performed at a metal fabrication facilityAnnual water savings of up to 71.9 million gallons were identifiedThis equals 2.6% of total 2010 industrial well water use in the eleven-county study area From the three summer intern projects:Gedney Foods, Chaska:Total water savings of 6.4 million gallons per year identified (planned for implementation, or in testing)Total salt savings of 1 million pounds per year identifiedTotal natural gas savings of 22,790 therms per year identifiedTotal savings = $115,230 per yearNorthern Star - Michael Foods, ChaskaTotal water savings of 30.6 million gallons per year identified (fully implemented)Total savings = $132,000 per yearFederal Cartridge, AnokaTotal water savings of 7 million gallons per year identified (8 to 10% of total facility water use; implemented or awaiting installation or approval)Total savings = $113,200 per yearConclusionsMnTAP had an interesting exposure to a microcosm of specific well water needs in selected industries in the last two years. Our previous experiences are again reinforced with a number of conclusions coming from this project:Manufacturing process modifications can be very challenging, even with strong cost and efficiency justification. Changes can include production downtime, re-piping systems, recalibrating flow rates, re-assignments and other modifications to the currently productive and profitable facility layout and routine.There are in-situ and practical limits to knowing about water use- how much is used, where it goes, how much it costs per use. The cost of water is an industry overhead expense, and in many cases not scrutinized. Whatever water supply treatment needs that are necessary are part of that operating expense, to be maintained and operating at the risk of production curtailment or shutdown.MnTAP’s experience with this project has given us a renewed appreciation for, and focus on the pervasive implications and prominent opportunities surrounding water conservation. Program initiatives will continue to target water conservation education, project, and technical assistance outreach. We look forward to continuing our relationship with MCES and other water supply and treatment system operators around the state to work with their communities on meaningful and cost-effective water conservation.",,,,11243,,"Susan Haigh (Chair), Roxanne Smith, Lona Schreiber, Jennifer Munt, Gary Van Eyll, Steve Elkins, James Brimeyer, Gary L.

3671,"Assessing the Opportunity and Barriers for Water Conservation by Private Industrial Users",2014,45337,"M.L. 2011 (Special Session) Chp. 6 Art. 2 Sec. 9","$500,000 the first year and $500,000 the second year are for implementation of the master water supply plan developed under Minnesota Statutes, section 473.1565.","See 2012 Fiscal Year Proposed Measurable Outcomes.","We chose to investigate and engage about 16% of the applicable businesses based on our assessment of whether the business and industry sectors represented could be reasonably expected to have opportunities for water conservation through process improvements. The outreach method chosen was through email. This was seen as a contemporary and accessible way to reach the audience, but was ultimately found difficult due to lack of publicly available email addresses. However, once prepared, the outreach survey resulted in a good return rate of 39% (33 respondents). It found that factors that motivate implementation of operational changes to capture water conservation savings vary across industries, process needs, and the perceived value of the water resource. In many cases, the survey pointed to a lack of information, focus, or priorities concerning water. Companies have tried some initiatives aimed at water conservation, maybe have water conservation teams, plans, or projects, know what processes use the water, but don’t necessarily have any plans to reduce water use on that process. The anticipated project impact to identify use and opportunities didn’t seem to resonate with the survey respondents as either an opportunity for water and cost savings, or more generally as a call to action across the metro. Except in the seven cases where survey participation ultimately translated into assessment assistance, interaction with MnTAP beyond the survey was limited. Measureable Outcomes According to the survey results: •42.5% of survey respondents have no water conservation initiatives •45% of respondents measure water use on a facility-wide basis, as opposed to a process-by-process basis •Water permitting costs are not a constraint •Water supply treatment costs are a concern •Wastewater discharge regulations are a concern From the seven anonymous one-day, on-site assessments: •Six assessment were performed at food-related facilties •One assessment was performed at a metal fabrication facility •Annual water savings of up to 71.9 million gallons were identified •This equals 2.6% of total 2010 industrial well water use in the eleven-county study area From the three summer intern projects: Gedney Foods, Chaska: •Total water savings of 6.4 million gallons per year identified (planned for implementation, or in testing) •Total salt savings of 1 million pounds per year identified •Total natural gas savings of 22,790 therms per year identified •Total savings = $115,230 per year Northern Star - Michael Foods, Chaska •Total water savings of 30.6 million gallons per year identified (fully implemented) •Total savings = $132,000 per year Federal Cartridge, Anoka •Total water savings of 7 million gallons per year identified (8 to 10% of total facility water use; implemented or awaiting installation or approval) •Total savings = $113,200 per year Conclusions MnTAP had an interesting exposure to a microcosm of specific well water needs in selected industries in the last two years. Our previous experiences are again reinforced with a number of conclusions coming from this project: Manufacturing process modifications can be very challenging, even with strong cost and efficiency justification. Changes can include production downtime, re-piping systems, recalibrating flow rates, re-assignments and other modifications to the currently productive and profitable facility layout and routine. There are in-situ and practical limits to knowing about water use- how much is used, where it goes, how much it costs per use. The cost of water is an industry overhead expense, and in many cases not scrutinized. Whatever water supply treatment needs that are necessary are part of that operating expense, to be maintained and operating at the risk of production curtailment or shutdown. MnTAP’s experience with this project has given us a renewed appreciation for, and focus on the pervasive implications and prominent opportunities surrounding water conservation. Program initiatives will continue to target water conservation education, project, and technical assistance outreach. We look forward to continuing our relationship with MCES and other water supply and treatment system operators around the state to work with their communities on meaningful and cost-effective water conservation.",,,,45337,,"Susan Haigh (Chair), Roxanne Smith, Lona Schreiber, Jennifer Munt, Gary Van Eyll, Steve Elkins, James Brimeyer, Gary L.

In fact, the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District's (MCWD) analysis of water testing results designated the water quality grade as F. This is largely a result of water that rolls off roofs, yards, and streets in the 690-acreDiamond Lake watershed and ends up in the lake - bringing pollutants, debris and dirt with it. Concerned citizens worked with the statewide nonprofit Minnesota Waters (through the MCWD Watershed Association Initiative Program) to form the Friends of Diamond Lake. The lake association completed a lake management plan which includes a goal to champion projects by home owners to reduce storm-water runoff. The Friends of Diamond Lake got word that Hedberg Landscape and Masonry Supplies was looking for a neighborhood interested in doing an environmental community makeover project and asked the MCWD to partner with them in applying for Clean Water Fund grant money. The resulting Go Blue! Diamond Lake Community Makeover Project is a program that provides property owners with up to 50 percent cost share for a variety of storm-water mitigation projects, including installation of raingardens, permeable pavers, rain barrels, trees and rainwater capture and reuse systems. Thirty-four individual households, Diamond Lake Lutheran Church, and the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board have all participated by installing one or more of these practices on their properties and have provided over 1,600 volunteer hours.

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.

",,150000,,,,,,"Rice Soil and Water Conservation District","Local/Regional Government","The Cannon River Watershed is a diverse watershed from the standpoint of topography, land use, and land cover, but a central issue of concern is increased sedimentation and turbidity within the river. 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. The Rice SWCD is the lead for this project, in collaboration with its neighboring SWCD partners and the CRWP.

Instead of stabilizing the bluffs with rock, the stream channel will be improved to efficiently transport sediment, and natural materials will be used to establish a floodplain bench to protect the toe of the bluffs and provide additional fisheries habitat.

An important product of the study was the creation of a groundwater-flow model focused on the northeast TCMA. The groundwater flow model is available for future use to assess the effects of groundwater withdrawals on lake levels as well as to describe other groundwater and surface-water interactions. The study work generally included (1) statistical analysis of existing hydrologic information about lakes and surrounding groundwater systems, (2) stable isotope and age-dating analysis of groundwater, (3) lake-water outflow measurements at several locations in deep parts of White Bear Lake, (4) targeted groundwater-level monitoring, and (5) development of a groundwater flow model. This effort builds on work published by the USGS in 2013 (http://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2013/5044/), which indicated that some water from White Bear Lake was flowing to the underlying Prairie du Chien-Jordan aquifer and reaching wells that were open to the aquifer downgradient from the lake. That work also highlighted how little is known about the groundwater and surface-water interactions at many of the other northeast TCMA lakes that have low water levels and an unquantified amount of lake water flowing to underlying aquifers. The current study filled the knowledge gap by characterizing groundwater and surface-water interactions in northeast TCMA lakes, including White Bear Lake. The work was supported by a combination of Minnesota’s Clean Water Fund appropriations and USGS Cooperative Matching Funds.

The Blue Earth River Basin needs to reduce fecal coliform from wastewater treatment facilities, rural household septic systems, livestock, wildlife and pets. Most livestock manure is used appropriately as a fertilizer and soil amendment, however the sheer volume of manure produced in the watershed means that runoff of even a very small percentage of what is applied may contaminate surface waters. The MN River Basin needs land use practices that reduce the amount of sediment and nutrients reaching the river. Installation of riparian buffers, streambank stabilization, water storage, surface tile intakes, and crop residue management help to reduce sediment transport. On farmland, conservation tillage and increased crop diversity including pasture can reduce sediment loss considerably. Crop nutrient management plans keep nitrogen and phosphorus out of waters, as do improvements in private and public wastewater treatment systems. In cities and developing areas, stormwater management and construction erosion control prevent sediment runoff. The Urban Outreach Specialist will also work directly with wellhead protection issues.

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.

Adopting cover crops, or other soil health practices, is a fundamental shift for most landowners and takes substantial consideration in changing their farming practices. We aim to gather economic and crop yield data through our contracted acres and develop an interactive, online map site for producers in southern Minnesota to reference who are actively transitioning from conventional farming methods. We also plan on organizing demonstration and workshop days that will highlight local producer success and challenges during their transition to conservation farming methods.

East Goose Lake total phosphorus (TP) and Chlorophyll-a levels average nearly 4 times shallow lake State standards. High nutrient levels have resulted in a lake that is devoid of vegetation and dominated by algae, including blue-green algae. VLAWMO seeks funding to perform a 2-phase alum treatment on East Goose Lake, as the most cost-effective means to remove biologically available phosphorus from the water column in East Goose and also improve the unnamed wetland, locally referred to as West Goose, located directly downstream (62'0126). Studies conducted on East Goose Lake show that 88% of East Goose Lake's phosphorus loading is internal. Reports that provide more detail include the TMDL (Wenck, 2014) and feasibility study (Barr, 2018). A 91% overall reduction in phosphorus is needed to meet the MPCA TP standard for shallow lakes (Wenck, 2014). Historical accumulated inputs combined with external inputs led to the current internal load. East Goose Lake was the discharge point for the White Bear Lake Wastewater Treatment Plant from the 1930s to the 1960s. Addressing problems in East Goose lake are important because it is part of the headwaters of Lambert Creek, tributary to East Vadnais Lake, which is the drinking water reservoir for more than 430,000 St. Paul residents.

Island Lake, while not currently listed as impaired, does exceed the threshold for total phosphorous and chlorophyll. Improving Island Lake will also benefit another high priority lake identified in the LPSS, that being Sand Lake into which Island Lake flows. In recent years, the failing outlet of Island Lake has unnaturally held water levels at least 1 foot above OHW causing erosion and bank instability that was not seen prior. As a result, Pine County SWCD has not undertaken any projects Island Lake due to a lack of assurance that projects would succeed given the ever-changing conditions.

This is a joint project between the Cities of Loretto and Medina developed for the Loretto ballfields to address this problem. The project includes restoring a portion of Loretto Creek to a more natural design by meandering the channel, flattening the side slopes and creating native vegetated buffers. A sedimentation pond will be constructed to collect coarse sediment during low flow storm events and will slow down the velocity of the stream. Down stream of the sedimentation pond, a larger water quality pond will be constructed within the existing upland area of the northwest ball field. This pond will store larger storm events and will settle out phosphorus-laden sediment. In addition, this project will restore a historically filled wetland within the ball field complex. The water quality pond will outlet through the restored wetland. This will allow for additional overland treatment of stormwater along with improving wildlife habitat.

We propose to construct a variety of stream stabilization practices, each selected to target the specific cause of the instability at individual sites. Eleven bank stabilization practices would be installed over a continuous 5400-foot reach in Lower Rice Creek. Bank stabilization practices would include vegetation restoration, tree and boulder resentment, and rock barbs with live-stakes. Diagnostic and feasibility studies for Locke Lake and Lower Rice Creek have shown that most of the sediment entering the lake is from unstable and eroding streambanks and bluffs along the Lower Rice Creek corridor. Stabilizing the streambanks was found to be the most feasible and cost-effective option for addressing the root cause of the problem. The eroding streambanks have been prioritized based on measured erosion rates, and the feasibility of conceptual designs have been selected to work towards meeting the sediment reduction goal of 80%. The stabilization practices proposed in this grant application are located in the top priority reach and will provide the biggest reduction of any on the reaches considered from restoration/stabilization.

For this step, the following data was assembled: public land, proximity to existing storm sewer networks, contributing land area, City of Minneapolis CIPs, TMDL studies, and past BMPs studies for the area. The second step was to fill data gaps. This was done through the use of field surveys and as-built information. The third step was to develop a model and update it with it with BMPs. The BMP hydrology was modeling with P8 and XP-SWMM. Total phosphorus (TP) loading rates and removal rates were modeling in P8. Using this model, stormwater BMPs were identified and preliminary sized for nutrient reductions and cost. The fourth step was then to evaluate the cost-benefit of each BMP and assemble a prioritization list on which would provide the highest return on investment. When normalizing costs they ranged from $5- $25 per cubic foot of treatment volume. When normalizing costs in terms of dollars per pound of TP removed over 20-years, costs ranged from $644-$8,014 per pound of TP. Beyond cost, each BMP was also ranked for total phosphorus removal, effectiveness of total phosphorus removal cost rank, and design challenges. The final step was to develop a report that summarized the methods, the modeling results, the BMP locations, cost and removal efficiencies, and recommendations. This report has been completed and as noted, identified 13 potential BMPs and all of the data that informed the development of those BMPs. Treatment efficiency ranged from 3-74 pounds per year of TP removal, with an average removal of 31 pounds.

North St. Paul is using the term Living Streets to describe a new type of street that will eventually replace most of the city's existing streets. Living streets are narrower and have less pavement than existing streets. Reducing the width of existing streets reduces construction costs and assessments to residents. It allows room for the installation of rainwater gardens to treat stormwater. Where there is a need, bike trails and sidewalks may be installed. Unlike existing streets that are only designed for cars, living streets are designed with rainwater gardens and street-side trees to remove pollutants from stormwater before the water enters area lakes. Narrower streets and street-side trees also slow traffic, creating a safe environment for everyone. Bike trails and sidewalks make it easy for all residents to exercise and connect with neighbors. The Living Streets approach will result in dramatic reductions in stormwater runoff volume and nutrient loading for downstream water resources. The demonstration project will provide a local example of the street design intended to be used throughout the street replacement program in North St. Paul over the next 30 years.

Bass Lake is an Impaired Water for excess nutrients and has been undergoing significant efforts to reduce both watershed and internal loading. This project is comprised of two parts: a stream restoration on Palmer Creek, a tributary to Bass Lake; and two sediment control devices on storm sewers upstream of the channel to treat residential development currently untreated. Palmer Creek is a remnant of Upper Bass Creek that conveys flow from Schmidt Lake and from the local drainage area that is currently experiencing significant erosion and mass wasting. Some of that erosion is threatening public infrastructure and private structures. This soil loss results in an estimated 52 tons of sediment conveyed directly to the lake. About 1,250 linear feet between Larch Lane and a culvert under the CP Rail embankment will be stabilized and improved by regrading banks, installing boulder toe and vegetated riprap, enhancing buffer with native vegetation, and replacing old failing retaining walls. These proposed improvements will reduce that annual soil loss by an estimated 45 tons, resulting in a total phosphorus load reduction of 18 pounds per year. In addition, two sediment capture devices will be placed upstream in storm sewer on Larch Lane, providing water quality treatment for about 30 acres of currently untreated residential area. The outcome will be stabilized streambanks protecting public and private structures, improved water quality, and enhanced habitat for aquatic and upland wildlife.

Lake McCarrons is currently unimpaired, though excess phosphorus loading threatens water quality, aquatic health, and recreational use. The VPWS drains 753 acres to the northwest of Lake McCarrons. Despite previous phosphorus load reduction efforts, CRWD monitoring data indicates VPWS continues to export phosphorus to Lake McCarrons. The Villa Park Wetland Management Plan recommendations a two phase approach for reducing phosphorus loading from the Villa Park subwatershed. The first recommended action to dredge the wetland cells was completed by CRWD in September 2013. This project will implement the next phase, to reduce volume and pollutant loading to the wetland through Best Management Practices (BMPs), such as bio-retention basins or infiltration systems. In addition to volume reduction through infiltration, the system will be designed to store and reuse a portion of the runoff to irrigate the softball field. Up to 1.3 million gallons of potable water use will be eliminated by providing a storage tank to satisfy the estimated 4 acre-feet irrigation demand over the growing season.

The counties and Soil and Water Conservation District leaders formed the Redwood Cottonwood Rivers Control Area (RCRCA) Joint Powers Board in 1983 to address sedimentation, water quality and quantity, and erosion issues. The purpose of this project is to facilitate individual landowners with the installation of conservation practices within the Redwood and Cottonwood watersheds through planning and technical assistance activities. 50% cost-share funds will be available with the remainder to be paid through federal and landowner match. Implementing groundwater infiltration and phosphorus reducing conservation practices through new funded conservation practices will help achieve reductions necessary to meet goals set forth in local, watershed wide, and Minnesota River basin water plans.

The long-term evaluation of clean water fund projects will be monitored as part of the state's intensive watershed monitoring strategy. RIM easements are subject to ongoing inspection to ensure compliance for the duration of the easement in accordance with established guidelines. ",,,,,,,,,"Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources","State Government"," This program is a part of a comprehensive clean water strategy to prevent sediment and nutrients from entering our lakes, rivers, and streams; enhance fish and wildlife habitat; protect groundwater and wetlands. Specifically the Riparian Buffer Easement Program targets creating buffers on riparian lands adjacent to public waters, except wetlands. Through the Reinvest in Minnesota Program (RIM) and in partnership with Soil and Water Conservation Districts and private landowners, permanent conservation easements are purchased and buffers established. In 1986, the Reinvest in Minnesota Resources Act was enacted to restore certain marginal and environmental sensitive agricultural land to protect soil and water quality and support fish and wildlife habitat. 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.

Analysis of the watershed land use indicates that large impervious sites are typically commercial properties (primarily retail), churches, and schools. The District began assessing church sites for retrofit opportunities in 2013 and will continue this effort in 2014. Church congregations tend to be receptive to partnering with watershed districts. Commercial and school property owners, however, are often harder to access, and can also be harder to motivate into partnerships that result in implementation of stormwater management Best Management Practices (BMPs). This project will assist the District in identifying and assessing school sites for retrofit opportunities that will increase the District's ability to meet stormwater volume and nutrient reduction goals. This project will not only identify promising sites for retrofit BMPs on school sites throughout the District, but involve a series of conversations with school administrators about the potential for partnering on project implementation, now and into the future. An important part of this project involves interaction with both public and private schools to introduce the District and its goals, determine the schools' willingness to partner with the District, identify barriers to installation and maintenance of stormwater BMPs, identify ways to reduce or eliminate barriers, and to generally lay the groundwork for the District to effectively work with schools into the future.",,,2014-03-06,2016-12-31,"Clean Water Fund","In Progress",,,Paige,Ahlborg,"Ramsey-Washington Metro WD",,,,,651-792-7964,paige.ahlborg@rwmwd.org,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources",,"Ramsey, Washington",,"Mississippi River - Twin Cities",http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/school-site-assessment-bmp-rettrofit,"See http://www.bwsr.state.mn.us/aboutbwsr/index.html","See http://www.bwsr.state.mn.us/aboutbwsr/index.html and http://www.bwsr.state.mn.us/aboutbwsr/boarddirectory.pdf","Nicole Clapp",NO

This project will lower phosphorus concentrations and increase the frequency with which Silver Lake meets applicable Valley Branch Watershed District (VBWD) and MPCA water quality standards. Silver Lake is a 76-acre shallow lake bordering the cities of North St. Paul, Maplewood, and Oakdale in the VBWD. The lake receives runoff from an approximately 350-acre watershed of primarily residential land use. The lake is heavily used for recreation, including swimming and fishing. This intensive use is due in part to the presence of two parks adjacent to the lake: North St. Paul's Silver Lake Park along the south shore and Maplewood's Joy Park along the north shore. Other recreational uses include waterskiing, canoeing, and aesthetic viewing. Water quality in Silver Lake over the past 10 years has declined, as witnessed by a statistically significant increase in phosphorus concentrations and decrease in water clarity. The most recent 10-year average of total phosphorus concentration in Silver Lake is worse than the applicable MPCA standard, and the lake may be listed as impaired due to nutrients.

These plantings will consist of native perennials, trees, and shrubs where practical. In addition to the riparian plantings, this project will include fence exclusions for cattle and heavy use protections at cattle crossings in streams and ditches. The project will restore 10% of the riparian areas identified on the resource assessment and inventory maps developed for the WRAPS Report. A total of 41 Best Management Practices (BMPs) will be implemented, reducing phosphorus loading in the watershed by an estimated 1,230 pounds per year, which is a 6% reduction toward the goal of 19,050 pounds per year. The soil loss reductions from these BMPs will result in an estimated 123 tons per year, which is a 67% reduction from the reduction goal of 184 tons per year of stream bank erosion.

Through the Wakefield Lake TMDL process, implementation activities have been identified which include partnerships with the City of Maplewood to install BMPs in the watershed to directly benefit Wakefield Lake. RWMWD has researched, monitored and field tested the use of spent lime for stormwater quality treatment. Spent lime consists of calcium and carbonate and is a byproduct of the drinking water treatment process that has properties that allow it to bind with dissolved phosphorus. When water containing dissolved phosphorus contacts the lime material, calcium from the lime binds with the phosphorus and forms calcium phosphate which is a solid material and does not dissolve in the storm water, thus remaining within the treatment system. Although this is still an emerging concept, three years of monitoring a test spent lime system has shown promising results for the removal of both total and dissolved phosphorus. Total phosphorus removal through the system is approximately 60% and total dissolved phosphorus removal is approximately 70%. With the help of this grant source, RWMWD hopes to install a full scale spent lime filtration system on a City of Maplewood owned lot just upstream of Wakefield Lake at the southwest corner of Frost Avenue and Kennard Street to treat stormwater flow before it reaches the lake. This treatment system will achieve nearly 50% of the needed phosphorus external load reductions to Wakefield Lake as identified in the TMDL.

This initiative will work towards the goal of identifying all DNR protected shoreland in the GBERBA counties without a 50 foot vegetative buffer. Buffer strips protect surface and groundwater from a multitude of pollutants. During stormwater run off events buffers can remove between 50 and 100 percent of nutrients, pesticides, pathogens, and sediment. The estimated sediment reduction for this project is 756 tons per year prevented from entering our waters. Buffers also mitigate flooding potential, improve aquatic and upland habitat, and stabilize streambanks. A subwatershed was selected in each county as a priority area to begin the work. The first step will be the mapping of the shoreland areas. Local SWCD and County staff will do the field verification of the mapping data. These selected watersheds will also be the areas of focus for the incentive dollars. The landowners in the selected priority watersheds will be eligible for a onetime $400.00 payment per acre of new buffer. The incentives would only be available for the first 50 feet of a newly installed buffer on cropland. Landowners will be encouraged to sign up wider areas but any width beyond 50 feet will not be eligible for our incentive.

The aquifer used by the wells in the Verdi Well Field consists of a sand and gravel horizon about 30' thick which overlies clay-rich till. The geological sensitivity in all five of the Verdi wells is classified as ""high"".The Verdi Well Field supplies water to ten community water suppliers, 34 large rural users, and 1,126 rural hookups. Total population served by this water supply is about 7,500. It is the only water supply source Lincoln-Pipestone Rural Water has in Lincoln County and functions as a backup water source to both the Holland and Burr water sources.Water quality monitoring indicates presence of nitrate nitrogen in the wells. The nitrate levels in the wells indicate that the wells pump groundwater that is under the influence of sources of nitrogen related to human activities.Nutrients that are not effectively utilized by crops have potential to leach into groundwater or enter nearby surface waters via overland runoff or subsurface agricultural drainage systems. A major principle of crop nutrient management is to prevent the over-application of nutrients. These projects are designed to decrease surface runoff and filter sediment, nutrients, and pesticides before reaching surface and ground water. The goal of this project is to reduce nitrate levels in this water supply.

The lake is considered having two distinct basins relative to the Minnesota water quality nutrient standards with the South basin (MDNR 27-018402) classified as a deep lake (156 acres; max depth 23 feet; & 66% littoral) and the North basin (MDNR 27-0180401) classified as a shallow lake (370 acres; max depth 10 feet; & 100% littoral). The lake was listed on the MPCA's 303(d) impaired list for aquatic recreation due to excessive nutrients (South basin-2006 & North Basin-2008). Whaletail Lake was included in the Watershed Restoration and Protection Strategies (WRAPS) and Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) study completed by the PSCWMC in 2017. The WRAPS/TMDL studies identified internal loading as comprising approximately 80% of the total phosphorus load affecting surface water quality of the Whaletail Lake-South basin and recommended an alum treatment to achieve the MPCA water quality standards. The goal of treating Whaletail Lake-South basin with alum is to reduce the phosphorus by at least 180 pounds/year to meet the load reductions identified in the WRAPS/TMDL report. The alum treatment will reduce internal P-load (381 pounds) to achieve in-lake water quality standards for at least a 20-year period. As a secondary benefit, improvements to the in-lake phosphorus concentration for the South basin would effectively reduce the phosphorus load to the North basin by 52 pounds/year. The estimated cost of the Whaletail Lake-South basin alum treatment project is $506,250. The project will be completed as a partnership between the PSCWMC (grant applicant) ($50,313), Three Rivers Park District (TRPD-project lead) ($29,363), and City of Minnetrista ($21,575).
