LGU Findings and Conclusions (attach additional sheets as necessary): This decision document supersedes the LGU decision made on 7/15/2014. The LGU finds the wetland boundaries illustrated within the "TCAAP Area of Investigation" in the 5 attached full color figures titled: Figure S-6: TCAAP 2011 Aerial Map; Figure S-7: TCAAP Northern Area Wetland Map Initial TEP Review WCA Statuses; Figure S-8: TCAAP Mid - North Wetland Map Initial TEP Review WCA Statuses; Figure S-9: TCAAP Mid -South Wetland Map Initial TEP Review WCA Statuses; Figure S-10: TCAAP and Figure 10 - TCAAP Southern Area Wetland Map Initial TEP Review WCA Statuses; all by Ramsey County Public Works provided in materials packet dated 12/5/2014 (RCWD received 12/9/2014) accurate and supported by the submitted wetland delineation for the LGU administration of the WCA. Further, wetland areas 2a, 2b, 2c, 2e, 17, 47, 50, 54, 57, and portions of 12, 24, 28/29, 30/53, 45, 46, 49, 56, 58 as shown on the attached color maps are "incidental" wetlands (were created in nonwetland areas solely by actions, the purpose of which was not to create the wetland) and are not within the Scope of the MN Wetland Conservation Act as described within Mn Rule 840.0105. The local government unit decision is valid for five years. However, the decision will cease to be valid before then, if the Technical Evaluation Panel determines that the wetland boundary or type has changed due to natural or artificial changes to the hydrology, vegetation, or soils of the area. The LGU finds that the wetland typing may need to be reviewed in conjunction with any future project. The applicant needs to submit a survey of the wetland boundary as well as gps points of the wetland delineation in a form acceptable to the RCWD.
