<br /> RECEiVED NJ'; 3 1992 <br /> ~ ".,. o. <br /> ~~[g~@lJ~ <br /> . DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES <br /> 500 LAFAYETIE ROAD, ST. PAUL, MINNESOTA 55155-4037 <br /> OFFICE OF THE DNR INFORMATION <br /> COMMISSIONER (612) 296.6157 <br /> October 29, 1992 <br /> The Honorable David Durenberger <br /> United States Senator <br /> 154 Russell Senate Office Building <br /> Washington, D.C. 20510 <br /> Subject: TRANSFER OF THE TWIN CITIES ARMY AMMUNITION <br /> PLANT (TCMP) <br /> . Dear Senator Durenberger: <br /> I am writing to you about the possible transfer of the <br /> TCAAP property. It is our understanding that the city of <br /> Arden Hills has requested that you draft special <br /> legislation to transfer portions or all of the TCAAP <br /> property to the city. I would like to suggest that we <br /> . cooperatively explore all state and local interests before <br /> you proceed with such legislation. <br /> The Department of Natural Resources has been assisting <br /> TCAAP in managing the natural resources of this property <br /> since 1967. We have been involved in management of <br /> wildlife habitat, including threatened species, fisheries <br /> projects, forestry practices, wetland protection, <br /> groundwater protection and have also been supportive of <br /> TCAAP's efforts in prairie restoration. Portions of this <br /> property contain outstanding natural resource values and <br /> wise stewardship of those resources is in the public <br /> interest. <br /> Federal laws and policy mandate that . use of surplus <br /> federal property be offered first to governmental units <br /> representing the citizens of the entire state rather than <br /> one portion of the citizens. Such policy should not be <br /> altered without careful consideration of the needs and <br /> interests of all the citizens and governmental units of <br /> the state. This property represents a unique and <br /> potentially valuable parcel in the metropolitan area. <br /> Careful coordination is needed to ensure that the public <br /> receives the minimum risk from environmental contamination <br /> sources as well as the maximum beneficial use of this land. <br /> . <br /> AN EaUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER <br />
