work is completed these are removed. The stockpile material will be sediment removed from the <br /> wetland during the creation of the pond, it will be temporarily stored on site to drain/dry out and <br /> then will be incorporated into the proposed berm. <br /> As for the size of the impact,the total area of the pond will be 7,850 square feet,this was previously <br /> miscommunicated to the District and the application materials have been revised to show the <br /> correct size of the pond. Under the Wildlife Habitat exemption of the Wetland Conservation Act <br /> (WCA)the size of the pond is limited to either 5%of the total wetland complex or one-half acre, <br /> whichever is less. Since the size of the total wetland complex is 5.11 acres(222,591.6 sqft), and the <br /> size of the proposed pond , 7,850 sqft, is 3.5%of the total complex they are in the allowable degree <br /> of impact. As part of this project the applicants are required to establish a 30'wetland buffer and <br /> provide a maintenance and monitoring for buffer establishment and $5,000 of financial assurance. <br /> At this time the only work proposed by the applicants is the previously discussed pond and berm, <br /> generally wetland tree and/or vegetation removal does not require a permit from the MCWD. <br /> Like the City,the MCWD does not regulate watercraft, however, if any activities are observed to be <br /> negatively impacting or inhibiting the intended wildlife habitat this would be a violation of WCA <br /> permit and would result in enforcement actions by MCWD. <br /> This project has been scheduled to be brought before the MCWD Board of Managers on February <br /> 27th, a postcard for the board meeting and corrected size of impact has been sent to all residents <br /> within 600' of the project site. <br /> Thank You, <br /> Will Roach <br /> Permitting Assistant <br /> Direct: 952-641-4580 <br /> Office: 952-471-0590 <br /> MINNEHAHA CREEK <br /> WATERSHED DISTRICT <br /> From: Bill Bowman [mailto:bbowmanc carlson-airflo.com] <br /> Sent: Monday, February 10, 2020 11:22 AM <br /> To: Laura Oakden <loakden(aci.orono.mn.us> <br /> Cc: 'jon ressler' <ionresslerPoutlook.com>; Will Roach <wroachPminnehahacreek.org> <br /> Subject: RE: LA20-000008 505 Willow Dr So <br />
