C I TY of ORONO <br />Post Office Box 66•C'rystal Bay, Minnesota 55323•Municipal Offices <br />On the North Shore at Lake Minnetonka <br />August 31, 1984 <br />Mr. Lowell Thompson <br />Director Environmental Planning <br />Metropolitan Council <br />300 Metro Square Building <br />St. Paul, Minnesota 55101 <br />Dear Mr. Thompson: <br />Regarding our telephone conversation concerning the proposed Maple <br />Plain interceptor, 1 wish to submit the following comments. <br />The concerns of the City of Orono are the changes from th - preliminary <br />design to the final design increasing the force main size from 10" to <br />12" and the increase in flows as follows: <br />Preliminary Final <br />Design Design <br />design average daily flow 0.385 M.G.D. 0.403 M.G.D. <br />peak design flow 1.35 M.G.D. 2.43 M.G.D. <br />peak flow factor 3.5 6.0 <br />After considerable review this spring, the City of Orono reluctantly <br />withdrew from the public hearing process challanging the proposed <br />construction of the Maple Plain interceptor through rural Orono, based <br />upon a 10" force main and the preliminary design flows, which could not <br />provide urban services in our rural area according to the City of Orono <br />Community Management Plan. <br />I understand that the Metropolitan Systems Committee will be meeting <br />on September 10th and that this item will be on that agenda. <br />I would appreciate the Systems Committee review of this matter if it is <br />convenient to do so on the 10th. <br />BUILDING& ZONING - 473.7337 • ADMINISTRATION & FINANCE ♦'3 '358 a PUBLIC WORKS 473 7359 <br />ASSESSING- <br />
