Voluntarily restore the area to its original condition. Lacation of the sand blanket and a written schedule must be approved by the DPJR. 3) Apply for an after-the-fact permit to retain a portion of the work you have completed (a set of permit application forms is enclosed for your use) . Depending on the outcome of the after-�he-fact permit application review, a permit may be gran�ed for part of the work (subje;.t to restoration of anything in excess of what is authorized) . It is possible that the permit application would be denied in all respects. In the case of after-the-fact permit applications, the normal application fee is doubled and a minimum $100 field inspection fee is charged. Using the enclosed fee worksheet, please calculate the norr�al fee and submit a check or money order, payable to the Department of Natural Resources, for double that amount, plus $100. We recommend that you pursue voluntary restoration as it avoids additional cost and legal act�ion. Should you choose to subr�it an after-the-fact permit application, the minimum additional fees and further legal action are necess,ary. You are further advised that: you must comply with all rules, regulations, requirements or s�tandards of other applicable federal , state, or local agencies and units of government. Compliance with DNR rules and regulations doe�� not preclude compliance with other authorities. The Minnehaha Creek Watershed District (Ron Quanbeck @ 473-4224) , the City of Orono (Jeanne h1abusth @ 473-7557) and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Ken Harrell @ 220-0379) should be contacted regarding pertinent regulations. If within 15 days of your receipt of this letter we have not received an application or a schedule/plan for restoration f rom you, we will be forced to consid�r the appropriate legal action necessary to protect the public 's interes�t. Violations of state water law are routinely referred to the Department's Division of Enforcement for appropriate action. A Conserv�ition Officer may be in contact with you to ensure the terms and conditions of any approved restoration pl an or after-the-fact per�nit ar�e met.
