Bachmann <br />Brooker, Hartfeldt, lledyes and Grant <br />2850 Metro Drive, Suite 800 <br />Minneapolis, Minnesota 55420 <br />RE: RETAINING WALL PE1011 T APPLICATION 1;3-61.50, WILLIA14 ULRICIi <br />Uc-iar Mr. Rachmaran: <br />In order to complete the processing of the subject permit applical-ion, we <br />request that a metes and bounds legal description be submitted. Any permit <br />for a retaining wall mutt tie title registered and therefore, this: informa- <br />tion is needed. <br />Also, as we discussed over the telephone-, the Department of Natural Resources <br />(DNR) regulations generally discourage the construction of retaining walls <br />excelt where other measures of erosion control are precluded or direct ,;hore- <br />land docking is needed. The DN1,1 review criteria for retaining walls are con- <br />tained in the DNR Public Waters Permit!. holes 6 MCAk $ 1.5023 (E) (photocopy <br />enclosed). Based on our review to this point on Mr. Ulrich's proposal, there <br />appear, to be an erosion problem and a demonstrated need for muskrat control. <br />A retaining wall would be one method of controlling these problems. Our re- <br />view is not complete as to other alt.ernativen available to Mr. Ulrich, but <br />it seems that the retaining wall. propo^al is net, inconsisten* with DNR rulcz. <br />Please forward two (2) copies of the mete and bounds legal description for <br />Mr. Ulrich's property. If you have any further qut-stions, please do not <br />hesitate to contact me. <br />Sin rely, <br />Jo r Linc Stine, Area Hydrologist <br />M o Region Division of Waters <br />JLS/ch <br />EncloSUre <br />cc: City of Orono <br />William Ulrich <br />A" EQUAL OPPOHI UNI T Y EMPLUI i k <br />
