RE: Wetland Monitoring Report for MCWD Permit#02-433
Dear Mr. & Mrs. Cullum:
MCWD received an as built survey and a vegetation management record on
November 2, 2006 for the monitoring report drafted by Kjolhaug Environmental
Services August 23, 2006.
The district engineering consultant has reviewed the as built survey and determined
that the berm and flow thru areas are in conformance with the approved plans.
MCWD requests that yearly maintenance be performed at the flow thru area to ensure
this area remains clear of any possible blockage caused by debris or vegetation.
Based on information provided in the Monitoring Report, the vegetation within the
monitoring area needs ongoing maintenance and invasive species removal to meet the
vegetation establishment requirements under the Wetland Conservation Act. The
supporting information from Prairie Restoration outlines the vegetation management
activities thru Spring 2007. It will be important to monitor the vegetation as it is a
key component of the monitoring plan and will be reviewed by the TEP before
monitoring can cease.
Pursuant to the Wetland Conservation Act 8420.0620 monitoring shall continue for
five years following the completion of the wetland replacement project, or until the
technical evaluation panel deems the replacement wetland to be fully functional.
MCWD requests that the additional annual monitoring reports be submitted no later
than August 31 S`every year until monitoring requirements are complete. Due to the
delinquency in submitting monitoring reports starting with project completion,
monitoring may continue for several more years.
If you have any questions please call me at(952)471-0590 x207.
Sincerely,
Charly Wojtysiak
District Technician
