o.;tah 0 Ty! 0 t March 311, 1978 The Honorable William B. Van Nest Mayor, City of Orono Orono, Minnesota Dear Mayor Van Nest: Metropolitan Council 300 Metro Square Building Seventh Street and Robert Street Saint Paul, Minnesota 55101 Telephone (612) 291-6453 Office of the Chairman After our meeting of March 28, 1978, it was agreed that our attorneys would meet and discuss legal issues regarding the Long Lake Interceptor question and City of Orono's system statement.

After the Land Planning Act comprehensive plan has been prepared by Orono and reviewed by its adjacent governmental units and affected school districts, the MUSA and MSSR may, as appropriate, be changed via the system plan amendment process established by Minn. Stat. Sections 473.145 and 473.146.and the Waste Management Policy Plan. 3. Orono's ultimate sewer capacity in the Long Lake inter- ceptor is 1.09 million gallons per day. Orono may plan for the use of that capacity as it sees fit and may allocate the capacity as it feels appropriate within the confines of the service area designated in the interceptor design plans and specifications. Following the meeting, staff has reviewed all drafts of the Orono system statement. Accompanying this letter is a revision of the Orono system statement which reflects the above agreed • upon sewer capacity, and, I hope, reflects the agreement reached at the meeting of March 30. As you may recall, the Metropolitan
