Water <br />quality improvements will be accomplished through <br />a coalition of partners implementing specific BMPs <br />identified in the Upper Minnehaha Creek TMDL and <br />other water quality studies and data. <br />Project Partners: <br />Minnehaha Creek Watershed District / City of Long <br />Lake / City of Orono / City of Medina / Hennepin <br />County/ MnDOT <br /> <br />Affected Waterbodies: <br />Tanager Lake / Long Lake / Dickeys LakeHoly Name <br />Lake / Wolfsted Lake / School Lake <br /> <br />Funding Sources: <br />MPCA: <br /> Surface Water Assessment Grant <br /> Section 319 Funds <br /> Point Source Implementation Grants <br /> <br />Hennepin County/MCWD <br /> <br />BWSR: <br /> Projects and Practices <br /> Accelerated Implementation Program <br /> <br /> <br />Potential Projects: <br />Much of the initial assessment work and data <br />analysis has been completed to understand the <br />problem. Implementation is the next phase. An <br />adaptive management approach should be used <br />during implementation which involves implementing <br />the project, completing data collection, and using <br />the data to inform future management. <br /> Regional Infiltration <br />Implementation of opportunities to increase <br />infiltration, including but not limited to construction <br />of infiltration basins and devices, wetland <br />restoration, reforestation, revegetation. <br /> Wetland/Stream Restoration <br />Restoration of drained or degraded wetlands, along <br />with the restoration of streambanks, management <br />of native vegetation, and in-stream habitat <br />improvement. <br /> Carp Management Project <br />Rough fish are identified as a potential source of <br />unknown impact in almost all lakes. Study could <br />look at quantifying population, tracking, removing, <br />and developing an Integrated Pest Management <br />(IPM) Plan for the entire upper watershed. <br /> <br />Next Steps: <br /> Identify how many projects have been <br />implemented so far. <br /> Track reductions <br /> Build implementation and priority list of <br />projects based on cost effectiveness <br /> Complete BBR and PPL applications. <br />Item #06 - CC Agenda - 04/25/2016 <br />Long Lake Creek Subwatershed Partnership <br />[Page 3 of 4]
