CMP Part 3A. Environmental Protection Plan <br /> • Preserve ve�etation around stormwater detention areas bv leavin them <br /> in a natural state. <br /> � Educate and involve residents and staff in surface water mana�ement. <br /> • Support other a�encies, such as Minnehaha Creek Watershed District so <br /> a coordinated mana ement program can be realized. <br /> Orono's implementation program is based on the information develo�ed in its <br /> review of issues and corrective actions. This pro�ram reflects the needs and <br /> concerns of many stakeholders including the Citv Council City Staff citizens <br /> and the watershed district. The implementation program also reflects the Cit ��'s <br /> fundin� capability and limitations to this capabilitv. Consequently amon�the <br /> issues and corrective actions identified not all appear as implementation items <br /> Some are not there because Orono's role is one of su�portin� more re i�onal <br /> efforts and those re�ional efforts are not underway. Some corrective actions do <br /> not appear as implementation items because other priorities such as phosphorus <br /> reduction or repairing erosion, take precedence. <br /> The implementation pro�ram has three maior components• the phos hp orus <br /> reduction plan, wetland restoration, and development controls The phosphorus <br /> reduction plan is a reAuirement of the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District <br /> All implementation items, includin� wetland restorations and development <br /> controls, will be assessed for phosphorus reduction potential in order to <br /> determine progress made in reducing phosphorus loads to Lake Minnetonka <br /> Additionallv. the City will review past activities — goin� back to the year 2000 — <br /> as to whether anv phosphorus reduction occurred there. Orono's Phosphorus <br /> Reduction Plan includes a five-vear projection of reduction for specific projects <br /> outlined in the City's capital improvement plan The annual report to Minnehaha <br /> Creek Watershed District will include an assessment of prolects for one <br /> additional vear, as well as potential activities under consideration for <br /> implementation in the next five ears. <br /> The City's current capital improvement plan includes several proj ects that <br /> directly address issues identified in the 2002 Surface Water Mana�ement Plan <br /> However. the 2009 update looks specifically at fundin�sources so that Orono <br /> can prioritize these expenditures. <br /> Review and adoption of Orono's 2009 Local Surface Water Mana�ement Plan <br /> will follow the procedure outlined in Minnesota Statutes 103B.235: <br /> `After consideration but before adoption bv the �overning body each local <br /> �overnment unit shall submit its water management plan to the watershed <br /> mana�ement organization[s] for review for consistency with the watershed <br /> plan.
