MN 55112 <br /> RE: LOCAL WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN. OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES <br /> Dear Mr. Berger: <br /> Per our meeting before the holidays. we are presenting the required <br /> objectives and recommended policies for the Local Water Management Plan. As <br /> . you know. the objectives are spelled out in the State Statute that imposes <br /> the requirement for developing a local plan. The objectives are listed with <br /> the recommended policies following each objective. <br /> Objective 1: Protect. preserve and use natural surface and groundwater <br /> storage and retention systems. <br /> Policies: Establish 100-year flood levels based on critical storm <br /> events. <br /> Prohibit encroachment that will reduce the capacity of <br /> floodways and allow only structures in the flood fringe that <br /> have been flood-proofed or that will not receive excessive <br /> damage. <br /> Preserve the retention capacities of the present drainage <br /> system. <br /> Alteration of wetlands is discouraged. Alteration may be <br /> allowed on an individual basis if the alteration can be <br /> accomplished within the regulations of all federal. state and <br /> local agencies that have jurisdiction over the particular <br /> wetland. <br /> . Objective 2: Minimize public capital expenditures needed to correct <br /> flooding and water quality problems. <br /> 1959 SLOAN PLACE, ST. PAUL.
