Capitol Region Watershed District Permit Report
CRWD Permit #: 14-035 Review date: December 12, 2014 Project Name: Ford Parkway Applicant: Molly Churchich
Ramsey County Public Works Representative 1425 Paul Kirkwood Drive Arden Hills, MN 55112
Purpose: Add bump-outs to intersections and replace shared turn median
with a vegetated median Location: Ford Parkway from Howell St. to Snelling Ave in St. Paul Applicable Rules: C, D, and F Recommendation: Approve with 6 Conditions EXHIBITS:
1. Plan sheets, by Ramsey County, not dated, rcd. 12/2/14. 2. Project narrative and stormwater management plan, by Ramsey Country, dated
12/1/14, rcd. 12/2/14. 3. Soil boring logs, by Ramsey County, dated 10/21/14, rcd. 10/29/14.
HISTORY & CONSIDERATIONS: None. RULE C: STORMWATER MANAGEMENT
Standards Proposed discharge rates for the 2-, 10-, and 100-year events shall not exceed
existing rates. Developments and redevelopments must reduce runoff volumes in the amount
equivalent to an inch of runoff from the impervious areas of the site. Stormwater must be pretreated before discharging to infiltration areas to
maintain the long-term viability of the infiltration area.
W:\07 Programs\Permitting\2014\14-035 Ford Parkway\14-035 Ford Pkwy RSVP_Review 02 fjk edits.doc Page 1 of 4
Developments and redevelopments must incorporate effective non-point source pollution reduction BMPs to achieve 90% total suspended solid removal.
Findings 1. A hydrograph method based on sound hydrologic theory is used to analyze
runoff for the design or analysis of flows and water levels. 2. Runoff rates for the project site do not exceed existing runoff rates for the 2-,
10-, and 100-year critical storm events. Stormwater leaving the project area is discharged into a well-defined receiving channel or pipe and routed to a public drainage system.
3. Stormwater runoff volume retention is not achieved onsite in the amount equivalent to the runoff generated from one inch of rainfall over the impervious surfaces of the development.
a. The amount of proposed impervious onsite is 253,084 square feet. b. Volume retention: Volume Retention Required (cu. ft.) Volume Retention Provided (cu. ft.)
18,981
BMP Volume Below Tree Trench 1 353 cf Tree Trench 2 751 cf Tree Trench 3 739 cf Total 1,843 cf
c. Infiltration volume and facility sizes have been calculated using the
appropriate hydrological soil group classification and design infiltration rate.
d. The infiltration areas are capable of infiltrating the required volume within 48 hours.
e. Stormwater runoff is pretreated to remove solids before discharging to infiltration areas.
4. Alternative compliance sequencing has been requested. a. The applicant partially complied with the volume retention standard. b. The project is linear, and the cost cap has been reached.
i. Cost cap: $174,300 ii. Estimated construction cost: $177,693.78
5. Best management practices do not achieve 90% total suspended solids removal from the runoff generated on an annual basis. However, the cost cap has been reached so no additional water quality treatment is required.
6. A memorandum of agreement for maintenance of stormwater facilities exists between Ramsey County and the CRWD.
RULE D: FLOOD CONTROL Standards Compensatory storage shall be provided for fill placed within the 100-year
floodplain.
W:\07 Programs\Permitting\2014\14-035 Ford Parkway\14-035 Ford Pkwy RSVP_Review 02 fjk edits.doc Page 2 of 4
All habitable buildings, roads, and parking structures on or adjacent to a project site shall comply with District freeboard requirements.
Findings 1. There is no floodplain on the property according to FEMA. 2. It is not known if all habitable buildings, roads, and parking structures on or
adjacent to the project site comply with CRWD freeboard requirements. However, sufficient conveyances have been provided to allow the storm sewer system to function as or better than it did prior to the project.
RULE E: WETLAND MANAGEMENT Standard
Wetlands shall not be drained, filled (wholly or in part), excavated, or have sustaining hydrology impacted such that there will be a decrease in the inherent (existing) functions and values of the wetland.
A minimum buffer of 25 feet of permanent nonimpacted vegetative ground cover abutting and surrounding a wetland is required.
Findings 1. There are no known wetlands located on the property
RULE F: EROSION AND SEDIMENT CONTROL
Standards A plan shall demonstrate that appropriate erosion and sediment control
measures protect downstream water bodies from the effects of a land-disturbing activity.
Erosion Control Plans must adhere to the MPCA Protecting Water Quality in Urban Areas Manual.
Findings 1. Erosion and sediment control measures are consistent with best management
practices, as demonstrated in the MPCA manual Protecting Water Quality in Urban Areas.
2. Adjacent properties are protected from sediment transport/deposition. 3. Wetlands, waterbodies and water conveyance systems are protected from
erosion/sediment transport/deposition. 4. Project site is greater than 1 acre; an NPDES permit is required.
RULE G: ILLICIT DISCHARGE AND CONNECTION
Standard Stormwater management and utility plans shall indicate all existing and
proposed connections from developed and undeveloped lands for all water that drains to the District MS4.
W:\07 Programs\Permitting\2014\14-035 Ford Parkway\14-035 Ford Pkwy RSVP_Review 02 fjk edits.doc Page 3 of 4
Findings 1. New direct connections or replacement of existing connections are not
proposed. 2. Prohibited discharges are not proposed.
RECOMMENDATION: Approve with 6 Conditions Conditions:
1. Provide plans signed by a professional engineer per the Minnesota Board of AELSLAGID.
2. Provide a copy of the NPDES permit. 3. Maximize tree trench storage volume by a combination of the following:
a. Increase trench pipe inverts b. Decrease trench pipe diameter c. Decrease pipe slope d. Increase trench rock depth
4. In the Tree Trench detail on sheet 55, the total “special filter aggregate” depth for Tree Trench 1 should be 3.5 feet.
5. Provide specification for pipe perforation size, frequency, and orientation. 6. Remove the underdrain from the design. The identified locations are suitable for
infiltration and an underdrain would require the design to comply with filtration guidelines.

TO: CRWD Board of Managers
FROM: Mark Doneux, Administrator RE: Adopt Final 2015 Budget and Certification of Levy
Background
The Board has discussed and reviewed the preliminary 2015 Budget and Tax Levy during several
meetings and workshops this summer. A copy of our summary budget and hearing notice was sent to
the affected cities and Ramsey County officials in August. The Citizen’s Advisory Committee reviewed
and provided comments on the proposed 2015 budget and levy at their August meeting. A duly noticed
Public Hearing was held on August 20th to collect public comment on the proposed 2015 budget and
levy.
Issues
The Board of Managers must adopt a Final 2015 Budget and Levy Certification before the December 30,
2014 deadline. The Board of Managers held a special workshop on June 26th and July 11th to review the
draft budget and levy.
Based on the Board recommendations, the final budget provides $611,700 for Administration, $1,562,772
for Programs, $807,595 for Projects for a total Operations Budget of $2,982,017 and $2,542,231 for
Capital Improvement Projects. This results in a total Preliminary 2015 Budget of $5,524,248. This is an
increase of $1,285,854 from 2014. The proposed 2015 tax levy is $3,404,228. This levy includes
$3,036,117 for the general levy and $368,131 for debt. This levy is $434,970 or 14.65% higher than 2014.
Requested Action
Approve and adopt the Final 2015 Budget and Levy Certification.

DATE: December 11, 2014 TO: CRWD Board of Managers FROM: Forrest Kelley, Regulatory and Construction Program Manager RE: Contract Amendment with SRF Consulting for Upper Villa Volume Reduction Project ____________________________________________________________________________________ Background In September 2012, CRWD entered into a contract with SRF Consulting Group for the analysis, design and construction of a volume reduction BMP within the Villa Park subwatershed of Lake McCarrons for $128,000. In April 2014, staff approved Contract Amendment #1 in the amount of $16,104 for the Reuse Feasibility Study in order to assess the costs and benefits of adding a stormwater harvest and reuse for irrigation of the softball field at Upper Villa Park. The project is nearing final design with only the component layout and cost estimates to be finalized. Discussion SRF has submitted a proposed contract and budget amendment for increased costs resulting from work outside of the original project scope, and additional work due to the complexities associated with design and construction of a combined storage, irrigation, and infiltration system. Also included are 4 additional 30 foot soil borings conducted this fall in order to better characterize the soil conditions in the preferred BMP locations. Staff have reviewed the proposal, and find the increased hours and costs to be reasonable for the amount of additional engineering work necessary for the project. Staff worked with SRF to reduce the initially proposed increase from $52,127 down to $29,384. The new total contract amount if approved will be $174,488. Requested Actions Approve Contract Amendment #2 with SRF Consulting Group for the Upper Villa Reuse and Volume Reduction BMP project in an amount not to exceed $29,384. enc: Upper Villa Harvest and Reuse - Lake McCarrons Subwatershed BMP CWP Project Proposed
