Stantec CENTERVILLE SURFACE WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN WATER RESOURCE MANAGEMENT PLAN September 2012 It is important to note that this policy is not intended to completely eliminate or reduce RCWD inspection efforts within the City. Rather, this policy would be a local means of enforcing erosion control issues with the same primary goals as the RCWD — protection of natural water resource systems. 6.9 WETLAND MANAGEMENT In accordance with the Minnesota Wetland Conservation Act (WCA), the RCWD currently serves as the Local Government Unit (LGU) for WCA administration within the City. The City anticipates that the RCWD will continue in this role in the future. Chapter 5 of the RCWD 2010 Watershed Management Plan delineates the details of the watershed district's wetland policies. These policies govern all wetland management issues within the City. As with floodplains and storm water facilities, all wetlands within the property limits of new developments must be covered by protective easements. Any construction activity that may impact wetlands may require permits from the RCWD, the US Army Corps of Engineers, and /or MnDNR. Correspondence regarding any wetland impacts should be directed to the following: MN Dept. of Natural Resources US Army Corps of Engineers Kate Drewry, Area Hydrologist Andy Beaudet 1200 Warner Road St. Paul District, 180 5th Street E., Suite 700 St. Paul, MN 55106 St. Paul, MN 55101 -1678 (651) 259 -5753 (651) 290 -5642 Rice Creek Watershed District Nick Tomczik, Permit Coordinator 4325 Pheasant Ridge Drive NE, Suite 611 Blaine, MN 55449 (763) 398 -3079 6.10 FLOODPLAIN ADMINISTRATION Flood damage prevention requirements are contained in City Code Chapter 155 (see appendix). The goal of the requirements is to promote the public health, safety, and general welfare and to minimize the potential impacts of flooding such as loss of life, loss of property, disruption of commerce and governmental services, and extraordinary public expenditures for flood protection and relief. Figure 7 illustrates the approximate floodplain boundaries within the City. 6.11 SHORELAND REGULATION In conversations with the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, it was determined that a stand -alone shoreland ordinance is not required for the City, since all of the shoreline is already developed. Instead, shoreland activities are regulated within the zoning ordinance. Section 156.133 of the zoning ordinance pertaining to shoreland activities is provided in the appendix. One Team.
