The site is contained <br /> D'.str•�c:r,i��<<«�tr'�r�rh���- within portions of five parcels'with the following Property Identification <br /> 4�umbers (PID's) 34-118-23-33-0054, 34-118-23-33-0001, 34-118-23-33- <br /> • relatinr�ships ta the pp�g, 34-118-23-32-0007, and 34-118-23-33-0018. I have reviewed the <br /> ecosyst�r►�SOfw�,�����r��y wetland delineation report and revised report, which were verified in the <br /> �field on July 17, 2005, and deem the wetland boundaries as staked in the <br /> 'are an integrcilpcart fleld and submitted in the survey of the existing conditions from Apri129, <br /> rhraughreguladiott, 2005 and June 30, 20Q5 acceptable. <br /> capital��rujE�els, On August 3, 2005, 1 met with members of SER staff to further discuss <br /> the possibility that a portion of the delineated wetland on site (wetland 1) <br /> �du���ion,Govperar�v�. might fall under incidental status and therefore be unregulated under the <br /> e.ndenv�rs,aizd oz{�er Minnesota Wetland Conservation Act. During the meeti�g I found no <br /> basis fo�claiming portions of wetland 1 were incidentaf. All roof d�ainage <br /> programsbasedan appeared to be infiltrating in a small infiltration basin located directly <br /> sou►td science, adjacent to the Church structure. The infiltration basin appeared large <br /> enough to treat any and all flow capacities it would receive from roof <br /> innovative thinkir�g,ar� runoff. Additionally, 1 found no evidence that the in�iltration basin was <br /> injorrned and engu�ecl connected hydrologically in any way ta wetland 1; I faund no pipe or tile <br /> or other artiflcial connection between the infiltration basin and wet(and 1, <br /> cnnstifuency,nna the there appears to be an elevation �isconnect betwean the infiltration basin <br /> and wetland 1, and there were no changes in plant communities or <br /> rost r.Jfeciive u+e��f pu6lic drainageways or other evidence that suggested overland flow was <br /> funds. cantributing runoff to wetland 1 from the infiltration basin in large enough <br /> amounts to alter the hydrolagy of wetland 1. Should the prope�ty owner <br /> still feel compelled to further explore the possibility that a portion of <br /> wetland 1 is incidental, they will have to apply for incidental status by <br /> submitting the standard water/wetland project application to MCWD. <br /> A projec� may require a Minnehaha Creek Watershed District (MCWD) <br /> approved permit. If you have any questions regarding our permitting <br /> requirements please feel free to contact me at 952-471-0590. <br /> I appreciate you allowing me the chance to review the wetland delineafion <br /> and look forward to working with you in the fu�urs. <br /> 1B2o2 Minnetonka Boulevard,Deephaven Minnesota 55391 • Phone:952-�71-0590 • Fax 952-471-0682 • Www-minnehahaoreek.org <br /> TOTAL P.02 <br />
