City Planner Deb Garross reviewed the recommendations from the Planning
Commission regarding the Albert Villas Development. At their November meeting,
the Commission recommended approval of the Comprehensive Plan Amendment from
Agricultural to Low Density Residential, the rezoning request from A-1 to R-lA, and
the CUP/PUD for the development. However, the Commission did not make a
recommendation on the preliminary plat at that meeting. They requested that the
developer address the many conditions outlined in the previous planning reports. By
the December Planning Commission meeting, the developer had reduced the number
of preliminary plat conditions from over 50 to 18 conditions.
The final issue that could not be resolved concerns the park dedication
associated with the preliminary plat. The Planning Commission make several
suggestions for park modifications to ensure that the proposed park areas would be
functional and of a size and configuration to allow for the development of recreation
and parking facilities within the Neighborhood Park. However, the developer was not
willing to modify the preliminary plat or consider park alternatives. Therefore, the
Planning Commission voted to recommend that the City Council deny the request for
preliminary plat approval for Albert Villas.
Matt Davich, representing the engineers for the project, presented a revised
sketch of the plat, showing increased park land and the elimination of two lots to
provide more adequate parking.
Councilmembe3r Gundersen feels more work is needed on the park areas to
create the type of park that the Comprehensive Parks and Trail Plan envision.
Councilmember Vetsch would still prefer to see more lots with 90'-99' widths in front.
Gundersen made a motion to send the Albert Villas preliminary plat back to the
Planning Commission for reconsideration and to table action on all zoning requests for
the Albert Villas project until the January 18, 2000, meeting. McCormack seconded
the motion. All voted aye.
City Engineer Pete Carlson presented the bid tabulation on the CSAH 19/37
traffic light. The apparent low bidder is Design Electric, Inc. of St. Cloud, MN, in the
amount of $125,377.00. The bid does not include the control box to be furnished by
MNDOT at a cost of $20,000. The City share of a contract with Design Electric is
$72,688.50, compared to the engineer's estimate of $65,000.

CATEGORIES OF HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES
➢ Toxic or Highly Toxic Substances are literally poisonous, and many can be deadly.
Example: anti -freeze, welding fumes.
➢ Corrosive Substances actually destroy body tissue.
Example: oven cleaner, degreasers, etching acids.
➢ Irritants cause inflammatory responses such as redness or swelling of skin, rearing of eyes,
edema or coughing. Example: hydrogen peroxide.
➢ Strong Oxidizers easily release oxygen during a chemical reaction - can support
combustion of something else. Example: copier toner.
➢ Strong Sensitizers may cause little or no reaction at first, but after several exposures there
may be a severe allergic reaction. Example: detergents, formaldehyde.
➢ Combustible Substances have a flashpoint as low as 100 degrees Fahrenheit.
City of Albertville
Employee Right -to -Know Program Page 5 of 12
➢ Highly Flammable Substances have a flashpoint between 100 and 73 degrees Fahrenheit.
Examples: car -starting fluid, turpentine.
➢ Dangerous Reactive materials ten to engage in rapid chemical reactions with the release of
energy. Examples: various explosives, sodium metal.
➢ Pyrophoric Substances cause fire, and may be self -reactive.
Examples: nitrocellulose, (guncotton), phosphorus.
➢ Pressure Generating Material can release or expand gases very quickly to dangerous levels.
Example: dry ice.
➢ Compressed Gases can be highly flammable.
Example: spray cans, propane.
➢ Carcinogens can promote, facilitate, or cause cancer in tissue.
Example: benzene.
➢ Teratogens can cause malformation of a fetus in the uterus.
Example: ethyl alcohol.
➢ Mutagens cause alteration in the genetic information in a cell nucleus, thereby changing
the nature of the cell tissue. Example: photo developer.
➢ Reproductive Toxic Agents are materials that can cause sterility, impotence, etc.
Example: lead.
HARMFUL PHYSICAL AGENTS
There are four generally recognized physical agents which can be harmful if exposure time
exceeds maximum limits.
Heat can result in prostration, heat stress, or stroke when there is prolonged exposure or activity
in extreme heat.
Noise when excessive can be harmful to your hearing. Protection is critical.
Ionizing Radiation can cause sterility, radiation sickness, and possible death when there is
prolonged exposure. Protective measures are essential.
Non -ionizing Radiation, such as ultraviolet, infrared, and visible light radiation, is harmful and
could result in severe skin burns or vision impairment when there is prolonged exposure.

GLOSSARY
ABSORPTION: The entrance of a material into the bloodstream, which consequently may be
carried to all parts of the body.
ACUTE EFFECT: An adverse health effect which develops rapidly, as a result of a single
excessive exposure to a substance.
ACUTE TOXICITY: See Toxicity.
ALKALI: Any chemical substance that form soluble soaps with fatty acids. Alkalis are also
referred to as bases. They may cause severe burns to the skin and eyes. Alkalis turn litmus
paper blue and have pH values from 8 to 14. Caustic is a synonym.
ANESTHETIC: A chemical that causes a total or partial loss of sensation. Over -exposure to
anesthetics can cause impaired judgment, dizziness and even death.
ASPHYXIATE A vapor or gas that can cause unconsciousness or death by suffocation (lack of
oxygen). Most are associated with a lack of sufficient oxygen to support life.
BOILING POINT: A temperature at which a liquid boils and changes to a vapor (gaseous) state.
"C" or CEILING LIMIT: In terms of exposure concentration, this is the number which is not to
be exceeded even for a short period, for an airborne substance.
CARCINOGEN: A substance capable of causing cancer or cancerous growth in mammals,
including humans. Known Carcinogens are those for which sufficient evidence exists which
shows a definite relationship between exposure to a substance and cancer in humans. Probable
Carcinogens are those for which there is limited evidence in humans and/or sufficient evidence
in experimental animals.
CAUSTIC: See Alkali.
"C" or CUBIC CENTIMETER: A volume measurement in the metric system that is equivalent
to one milliliter (ml). One quart has 946 cubic centimeters.
CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM: The brain and spinal cord. These organs supervise and
coordinate the activity of the entire nervous system. Sensory impulses are transmitted into the
central nervous system, and motor impulses are transmitted out.
CHEMICAL: Any element, chemical compound, or mixture of elements and/or compounds.
Substance is a synonym.
CHRONIC EFFECT: An adverse effect with symptoms that develop very slowly over a long
period of time or that recur frequently.
CHRONIC TOXICITY: See Toxicity.

COMBUSTIBLE: A term used to classify liquids, gases, or solids that will burn. This term is
often associated with "flash point".
COMBUSTIBLE LIQUID: Any liquid having a flash point at or above 100 Degrees F. (37.8
Degrees C) but below 200 Degrees F (93.3 Degrees C).
CONCETRATION: A figure used to define the relative quantity of a particular material, such as
a mixture of 5 ppm Acetone in air or 50% caustic solution.
CORROSIVE: A material that causes irreversible harm to living tissue at the site of contact.
Many acids and bases are classified as corrosives.
CUTANEOUS TOXICITY: See Toxicity.
DATA SHEET: A document such as Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS), used by an employer
to communicate to an employee information regarding the physical, chemical and hazardous
properties of a substance or mixture.
DECIBLE (dB): Loudness is subjective; it is what we hear. Sound pressure level is a physical
quantity; it is what we measure. This is indicated in decibels (dB). The decibel enables us to
squeeze numbers on a scale of 1 to 10,000,000 into a more useful scale if 1 to about 140 dB.
This covers the sound pressure level of all the sounds we are likely to hear.
DECOMPOSITION: The breakdown of materials or substances into other substances or parts of
compounds. Usually associated with hear or chemical reactions.
DERMAL: Relating to the skin.
DERMAL TOXICITY: See Toxicity.
DYSPNEA: A sense of difficulty in breathing; shortness of breath.
EVAPORATION RATE: The rate at which a liquid material will evaporate when compared to
the known rate of vaporization of a standard material. Usually associated with flammable
materials. The evaporation rate can be useful in evaluating the health and fire hazards of a
material. The faster a material evaporates, the sooner it will become concentrated in the air,
creating either an explosive/combustible mixture or toxic concentration, or both.
IGNITABLE: A liquid, gas or solid which has a flash point of 140 Degrees F, or less.
IGNITION TEMPERATURE: The temperature at which a substance will catch on fire and
continue to burn. The lower the ignition temperature, the more likely the substance is going to
be a fire hazard. Generally, the lower the ignition temperature, the greater the danger of ignition.
IMMEDIATE -USE CONTAINER: A container which is routinely used and reused, into which
chemical substances are transferred from labeled containers, and which is intended for the
immediate use by the employee who performs the transfer.
City of Albertville
Employee Right -to -Know Program

weight of an equal volume of air. Materials lighter than air have a vapor density of less than 1.0,
whereas materials heavier than air have a vapor density greater than 1.0. Heavier vapors and
gases are more likely to concentrate in low places -- along or under floors, in dumps, sewers,
manholes, trenches and ditches -- where they may create fire or health hazards.
VAPOR PRESSURE: A number used to describe the pressure that a saturated vapor will exert
on top of its own liquid in a closed container. Usually, the higher the vapor pressure, the lower
the boiling point, and therefore the more dangerous the material can be if flammable.

ALBERTVILLE WASTEWATER TREATMENT FACILITY
Monthly perations Report
December 1999
Executive Su
Albertville met all of its NPDES permit requirements for the month of December. Average daily
flow into the treatment plant was 0.240 million gallons per day. Average biochemical oxygen
demand in the effluent was 4.6 mg/1 and total suspended solids was 31.1 mg/l. Average
phosphorous in the effluent was 0.7 mg/l.
Operations
Phosphorous results were up in early December, therefore ferric feed rater was increased in order to stay in
compliance.
Filled ferric tank near end of December.
All aerators still running to facilitate treatment with Pond #3 being bypassed
Worked with John through transition period. Reviewed routine operations, including rounds, chemical
feed, observations. Performed Winkler calibration procedure for DO and pH calibration procedure. John
had dialer re -programmed at end of December with new contact numbers. All equipment, including tools,
remain property of the City. There is a general set of tools in toolbox, a DO meter, pH meter, lawn mower,
and general maintenance supplies on site. Walk through of plant was done with John, Tim, and Linda on
Dec. 30`s. Maintenance files, MOR files, and rounds sheets files are also on -site. City office also has
copies of all MOR's. Various contacts and phone numbers for critical vendors were supplied to John, as
well, including electrician, aerator manufacturer, chemical supplier, contract laboratory, instrumentation
specialists, and electronics representative for Dialer. Sampling (NPDES) requirements and locations were
reviewed, locates, meter readings, misc. water operations. Copy of distribution system maps was also
provided. Manuals for all equipment were left on -site and with lab equipment. On the water end of things,
we had some problems getting the locates switched over from Gopher State, but worked through that with
no problem. We still are available for any questions John or anyone may have. It's certain that more
things will come as it gets busier in the Spring.
Kelly and Harold met with SEH, John, Linda and Tim regarding the Pond #3 pump -down. Compliance
issues halted pumping down of Pond #3. We made some recommendations about how we thought it might
be handled, and John purchased a pump to start pumping down the Pond We CAUTION that the MPCA
will not be very understanding should the permit be violated because of this pumping. We also offered
some recommendations on how the chance of non-compliance could be minimized. Quick and timely
sampling with rushed results from the laboratory is the first and most important way of preventing a
violation. Careful and more frequent sampling of the waste streams (internal and effluent) is also
important.
PSG staffed the facility through the Y2K event, and all lift station operations were checked just after
midnight. No problems were encountered A list of items that were checked off was left at the facility that
night for your records.
Maintenance
Monthly preventative maintenance work orders completed.
Replaced four overhead bulbs in the control building.
Ordered tank of propane.
Continue to treat DJ's lift station with degreasers.
Knocked down last weeds around pond
Clarifier froze for the first time this winter. Ice was broken up and heat lamps installed as last year. No
problems since.
Granite Electronics repaired DJ's lift station dialer (again).
Serviced the Industrial Park lift station.
Floor in control building was repainted.
Safety
Performed safety training on the following:
• Winter Safety
• Electrical Safety
Regulatory Communications
Monthly NPDES discharge monitoring report submitted to the MPCA.
Client j Public Relations
Regular communications between PSG and City Hall. See report under "Operations" regarding transition.
Financials
Financial report reflects all activity in the budget year. The financial report does not reflect
December bills paid in January. Final reconciliation will be done and submitted to the City
following posting of all invoices for 1999.

City of Albertville
MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Tim Guimont, Public Works
DATE: January 15, 2000
SUBJECT: PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT REPORT
• Parks I hired James Morris to lock the warming house at night. (He is also
snowplowing for us this season.) The current rate of pay is $5.00/time to lock the
warming house. I would like to see a raise in the amount somewhat. Whatever the
Mayor and Council members feel is appropriate.
• Public Works In May 1999 I met with Mark Wagner of Berkley Risk Services to
do a Loss Control Survey of the city, with the exception of the treatment plant. I was
given a list of things to do. Most of the items are already done. One of the things we
have left is establishing a Right -to -Know Program for all employees who are
routinely exposed to chemical in the workplace. Mark gave me a sample policy to go
by which we have made our won, and it is enclosed in the City Council packet.
We also need to establish a Safety Policy/Program for the City of Albertville. All that
was found in the files was a paragraph in the Personnel Policy. See below:
5.3 SAFETY
(a) There will be a safety committee set up consisting of two (2) City employee representatives

MEMORANDUM
TO: Albertville Mayor and City Council
FROM: Deb Garross
DATE: 13 January 2000
RE: Albertville — Albert Villas Preliminary Plat — Park Concept Review
FILE: 163.06 — 99.08
INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this memo is to provide the City Council with the recommendation of the
Planning Commission concerning the review of the various park scenarios presented by
the developer of Albert Villas. The Comprehensive Plan amendment, rezoning,
CUP/PUD and preliminary plat for the Albert Villas project was reviewed by the City
Council at the January 3, 2000 meeting. The recommendation from the Planning
Commission concerning the project at that time was to approve all of the petitions with
the exception of the preliminary plat. The Planning Commission recommended denial
of the preliminary plat based upon the following findings of fact:
The preliminary plat is inconsistent with the Albertville Comprehensive Park and Trail System Plan in
that the proposed parks do not provide for the configuration, size, and access consistent with the
objectives for a neighborhood park facility. As such, the preliminary plat is inconsistent with the
Comprehensive Park & Trail System Plan. (The Park Plan identifies the following active
recreational uses and improvements for "Southside Park:" Basketball court, hockey rinklice
skating, tennis court(s), play ground, picnic shelter or gazebo, picnic tables/seating, parking,
restroom, water fountain, trails and open space).
2. The applicant failed to offer alternative park configurations to satisfy the objectives of the
Comprehensive Park & Trail System Plan for consideration by the Planning Commission.
3. The applicant did not desire to change the preliminary plat to incorporate alternative park configuration
options suggested by the Planning Commission.
The City Council reviewed the project and several concept park plans and decided to
remand the issues concerning parks back to the Planning Commission for additional
consideration. The Planning Commission reviewed the various park proposals at their
meeting on January 11, 2000 and recommends the park alternative attached as Exhibit
C. The park dedication suggested by the Planning Commission is outlined as follows:
1. The park land dedication should consist of the 3.5 acres of land located southeast of
the intersection of proposed Kahl and Kaiser Avenues.
2. To accomplish the 3.5-acre (square park configuration) the preliminary plat should
be amended to delete Lots 1 — 5, Block 14. (The applicant agreed that the deletion
of these five lots was acceptable).
3. The proposed park within Block 12 should be deleted as it does not provide for
usable recreation and park areas. The area can be platted as an outlot for storm
water ponding or the rear lot lines may be extended toward the County Ditch and the
appropriate storm water management easements granted.
4. The trail shown within Block 12 is acceptable and should be credited against the
park dedication requirement.
5. The trail shown within the park (Blocks 11 & 14) is acceptable and should be
credited against the park dedication requirement.
6. The area surrounding the pond within Block 11 should be deleted as park dedication
as it does not provide for usable recreation and park areas. The area can be platted
as an outlot for storm water ponding or the rear lot lines of Lots 9, 10 & 11, Block 11
extended toward the County Ditch with the appropriate storm water management
easements granted as required by the City Engineer.
RECOMMENDATION
The recommendations of the Planning Commission have been incorporated into the
attached City Council findings of fact and decision. If it is the intent of the City Council
to approve the project, the conditions outlined in the draft findings of fact are suggested
as conditions of approval. In the event that the City Council decides to add other
findings or deny all or part of the project, Staff should be directed to amend the findings
of fact and decision accordingly.

CUP/PUD
Preliminary Plat
Applicant Name: K.C. Land Company Keith Harstad — Albert Villas
Request: K.C. Land Company has submitted plans for development of 336 single-family lots as
part of the Albert Villas project. The subject site contains 235.17 acres of land which is bounded
on the east by Swamp Lake, the north by CSAH 18, the south and west by the City of St.
Michael. The PUD concept plan covers the entire land holdings of the applicant. The developer
desires to preliminary plat the part of the site (approximately 136.75 acres located north of
County Ditch #9) into 177 single-family lots.
A Comprehensive Plan amendment will be necessary to allow the low density residential
proposal in an area guided for agriculture and rural development. The property is currently zoned
A-1, Agricultural/Rural. Rezoning to R-1A, Low Density Single Family, will be necessary to
accommodate the proposal. A Conditional Use Permit / Planned Unit Development will be
necessary to allow flexibility from the strict provisions of the Zoning Ordinance related to
setbacks, lot area, and width. A preliminary plat for development of the north 136.75 acres of the
site will be necessary to allow development of single family lots as proposed.

RE: Plan approval issues south of Highway 118 for Albert Villas
Dear Mr. Mayor, Council Members and Staff -
This letter serves to confirm numerous telephone conversations with staff as it relates to proposed work
and plan approvals on lands south of Highway118. We have reviewed a copy of the revised plans last
dated 12-2-99 and staff reports. We understand that the PC passed a motion for denial, which requires a
4/5 vote to overturn and approve as a PUD. We believe that the issues of cul de sacs, usable park land and
density can be solved on the phase two parcel by plan modification or density transfer, similar to how
Cedar Creek was treated, if the Council feels that adequate public amenities are created. We agree with
the Planning Commission that not enough was created in the phase two design to warrant their approval.
We did not receive any benefit from the PC for having large wetland areas to design around in any of our
plats of Parkside, Center Oaks or Cedar Creek. We were able to incorporate them, as has this plat into
larger lot areas, while still providing usable front and rear yards. Our tradeoff came from a golf course,
which provided an amenity to the City and the surrounding lots. We support the project under the
following conditions.
It appears that phase one stands alone quite well. We do not understand why staff would encourage a
berm to screen views to the golf course from the double fronted lots, since it is due to the golf course
that this land has some demand to develop in the first place. We agree with the Planning Commission
that any approval for phase two be withheld until a suitable plan is created. Perhaps you can approve
phase one and withhold phase two to a future time. It does not appear that NAC has suggested
enhancements as recommended tradeoffs for the R-1 lot sizes. For Example: If the R-1 lot widths
were approved, than each smaller lot should have 4 trees, with two as boulevard types in a larger
caliper installed before the home building. Regular lots would have the standard 2 trees. This is an
added value helping to make the neighborhood something different.
2. That said, we can not support an approval which requires Pilot to cause any of our TH dwelling units
to gravity drain to a lift station on the other side of Hwy 118 unless we are not charged any of the
additional costs of added depth and capacity for the lift station, additional overhead power, upsized
pumps and panels and transformers or road jacking which are over and above those necessary to serve
the Cedar Creek design approved with our master plan. A condition to approve must carry the
language to dedicate the land for a lift station along with any required waiver of assessments to allow
for the construction prior to causing Pilot to change from our approved design. Our approved design
would stand until the easement or land is dedicated to Albertville.
3. During our construction process we had to bring 3-phase power to our work site from Highway 19 at
a cost of over $30,000. This improvement also provided power and a transformer for our planned lift
station. We previously requested Council to add 3 phase power costs to an area charge for the new
land and rebate Pilot some percentage. A vote to approve would cause a subsidy to new lands that
13736 Johnson Street NE • Ham Lake, MN 55304 - 757-9816 • Fax: 757-4094
have not paid for the improvement. So long as Pilot does not need to pay any additional costs for
power to a new lift station location off of our site, we would not object.
4. We have previously asked Council to amend the benefited sewer area map for rebate to Kenco for the
trunk sewer constructed under Hwy 19 and through Barthells land to serve Parkside and all the lands
west of Hwy 19. At the time the map was created by SEH, a choice to not include the Albert Villas
lands was made due to the unlikely development potential within the comprehensive guide plans 10 to
20 year period. So, the map boundary was stopped at Highway 118. There was a 12-year payback
period of which 2.5 years are over. In addition, the City granted rezoning to the Leander Heuring
parcel, causing their reconsideration to sell and develop in the short term since they could get more
for their land in the future. This may have removed 40 acres from the likely rebate area to Kenco
during the 12-year payback period. Since this proposal for 250 acres is on the table, it seems
appropriate to amend the boundary, and allow Kenco to be rebated in the spirit of the original
document. We again request the City expand the benefited area prior to any final guide plan change
and preliminary plats with a rebate to Kenco under the terms of the Parkside 3`d agreement. We do
believe that a sewer flow capacity question should be addressed as it relates to flows from these new
sites through Cedar Creek, Center Oaks, Parkside 1,2,3,4, Summerfield and across Highway 19.
5. During 1998, the farmers along ditch 9 believed they could not afford to participate in the ditch
cleaning, so Pilot land offered to do so. It was discussed with the attorney, the City Administrator at
the time, and the Engineer, that Pilot be eligible for a fair share rebate of costs from trunk storm
sewer utility fees, since the ditch cleaning benefited the City for the next 20 years and served more
than just new development that Pilot was undertaking. Our work cost $25,000 in excavation and
$12,000 in engineering. We believe that work done in the area South of Highway 118 should be
under a substantial rebate if development proceeds, since it clearly benefits their property both for
agriculture in the short term and development in the long term, and they have received more than fair
compensation for their land.
6. Any engineering costs to design the lift station, site it or bid it should not be Pilot costs since ours
would have been built privately. This should be outlined in an approval condition.
7. We have an engineering concern that without a guarantee that the second phase connect to St.
Michael for water looping, that additional water mains may be needed along Highway 18. We would
have zero use for any lines along 18 and could not participate in any assessment, which would be
proposed as part of that need.
8. Last, with development approval pending, we wish to hear what the City has discovered regarding
joint trail construction within Wright County Highways ROW and the school district as they upgrade
the road.
These are the most significant planning and financial issues, which we dealt with during our approvals,
and we would expect similar consideration and results from this project.
Sincerely,
Ponald Jensen

ORDINANCE BY ADDING REQUIREMENTS FOR STORM WATER POLLUTION
CONTROL PLANS.
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ALBERTVILLE, MINNESOTA ORDAINS:
SECTION 1. SECTION A-800.8. DEFINITIONS OF THE SUBDIVISION
ORDINANCE IS HEREBY AMENDED TO ADD THE FOLLOWING DEFINITIONS
RELATED TO STORM WATER POLLUTION CONTROL PLAN, AND RENUMBER
THE SUBSEQUENT PARAGRAPHS OF THE SECTION ACCORDINGLY:
(pp-1) Storm Water Pollution Control Plan: A joint storm water and erosion
and sediment control plan that is a document containing the requirements of A-
600.13 that when implemented will decrease soil erosion on a parcel of land and
off -site non -point pollution and sediment damages.
(1) Best Management Practices (BMP's): Erosion and sediment
control and water quality management practices that are the most
effective and practicable means of controlling, preventing, and minimizing
degradation of surface water, including construction -phasing, minimizing
the length of time soil areas are exposed, prohibitions, and other

mineral and organic, that is in suspension, is being transported, or has
been moved by water, air, or ice, and has come to rest on the earth's
surface either above or below water level.
(19) Sedimentation: Sedimentation means the process or action of
depositing sediment caused by erosion.
(20) Sediment Control: The methods employed to prevent sediment
from leaving the site. Sediment control practices include silt fences,
sediment traps, earth dikes, drainage swales, check dams, subsurface
drains, pipe slope drains, storm drain inlet protection, and temporary or
permanent sedimentation basins.
(21) Soil: The unconsolidated mineral and organic material on the
immediate surface of the earth.
(22) Stabilized: The exposed ground surface after it has been covered
by sod, erosion control blanket, riprap, or other material that prevents
erosion from occurring. Grass seed is not stabilization.
(23) Storm Water: The precipitation runoff, storm water runoff,
snowmelt runoff, and any other surface runoff and drainage (defined in 40
CFR 122.26 [b] [13]).
(24) Temporary Protection: The methods employed to prevent
erosion. Examples of such protections include; straw, mulch, erosion
control blankets, wood chips, and erosion netting.

lakes, ponds, marshes, watercourses, waterways, wells, springs,
reservoirs, aquifers, irrigation systems, drainage systems and all other
bodies or accumulations of water, surface or underground, natural or
4
artificial, public or private, which are contained within, flow through, or
border upon the state or any portion thereof. (Constructed wetlands
designed for wastewater treatment are not waters of the state. See the
definition of "wetlands").
(28) Wetlands: As defined in Minnesota Rules 70750.0130, subpart F
"wetlands" are those areas that are inundated or saturated by surface
water or groundwater at a frequency and duration sufficient to support,
and that under normal circumstances do support, a prevalence of
vegetation typically adapted for life in saturated soil conditions. Wetlands
generally include swamps, marshes, bogs, and similar areas. Constructed
wetlands designed for wastewater treatment are not waters of the state.
Wetlands must have the following attributes:
A predominance of hydric soils;
ii. Inundated or saturated by surface water or groundwater at a
frequency and duration sufficient to support a prevalence of
hydrophytic vegetation typically adapted for life in a saturated soil
condition; and
iii. Under normal circumstances support a prevalence of such
vegetation.

Mr. Wayne Kessler
Joint Powers Water Board
P.O. Box 10
Albertville, MN 55301
RE: COUNTY ROAD 19 — WATERMAIN EXTENSION
NEAR HANOVER AND HANOVER RE -CIRCULATION STATION
Dear Wayne:
On December 7, 1999 1 met with Bret Weiss, P.E., City Engineer of Hanover and Jeff Roos,
P.E., City Engineer for St. Michael, to discuss the proposed watermain extension of County
Road 19 from 19t Street to 5th Street and along Highway 34 from County Road 19 to Kadler
Avenue. We also discussed the Hanover re -circulation pump station.
The consensus of the group was that the Joint Powers Water Board should pay the cost for up -
sizing a watermain from 19th Street to 5th Street from a 8-inch main to a 12-inch retain. In
addition, the Joint Waters Power Board should pay for. up -sizing the first half -mile of maain along
Highway 34 from County 19 from an 8-inch to a 12-inch. St. Michael appeared to be willing to
pay for half of the costs of an 8-inch main on County Road 19 from 19th to the Hanover City
limits. Hanover would be willing to pay for half the costs of the 8-inch main from 19th to the
Hanover City limits and would also pay the full cost of an 8-inch main from the Hanover City
limits to 5th Street and the first half -mile along Highway 34. This is shown on the attached map.
This arrangement was arrived at by assuming an 8-inch main would be installed along this area
if there was no Joint Powers Water Board serving the area. The Joint Powers Water Board
would want these mains to be 12-inch in size to provide transmission between adjoining cities
and to provide a looped supply to Hanover. The 12-inch main was recommended in the 1998
Water Master Plan.
In addition, it was agreed that Hanover would supply a 12-inch main or three separate 8-inch
mains between the end of the 12-inch pipe on Highway 34 to KadlerAvenue.
It was agreed that Hanover would provide the cost of designing this project and that the
construction cost would be split according to the above discussion.
The Hanover City Engineer discussed the Hanover re -circulation pump and stated that Hanover
would prefer to install a double ended check valve (see attached schematic) to reduce the
cross -wise flow along 15'h and to increase the amount of re -circulation from St. Michael to
Hanover. This modification is expected to cost less than $5,000.00 and will be possible after
the installation of the main along Highway 19.

It takes a village to raise a child...
One of the core values underlying the STMA Collaborative is that EVERYONE can build assets — those
developmental "building blocks" that research has shown help children and young people make
positive choices and avoid risk -taking behaviors. High school students who mentor younger youth,
neighbors who say "hi" to the kids they see, Sports coaches, Sunday school teachers, Scout leaders,
employers — we are all asset builders. And we know that by increasing our "community assets" we can
strengthen our families and our community. Building on the idea that we are all responsible for aff of our
