• Promote groundwater recharge; • Protect and enhance fish and wildlife habitat and water recreational facilities; and • Secure the other benefits associated with the proper management of surface and groundwater. A third regulatory program, very much related to the goals, policies and standards of this Plan, is the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System ( NPDES) Phase 11 Storm Water Permit Program for Municipally Separate Storm Sewer Systems (MS4) that is administered in the State by the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) (http: / /www.pca.state.mn.us). The goals, policies and standards of this plan were developed to be consistent with the requirements of the City's NPDES MS4 permit and associated Surface Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) as well as the respective WMO plans. The implementation program included in this plan and the SWPPP are intended to be a coordinated effort to realize combined efficiencies. 1.2 Organization and Scope This plan builds upon the City's previous Surface Water Management Plans (SWMP) completed in 1990 and 2003. The 1990 SWMP included detailed hydrologic TR -20 modeling for the entire City and the 2003 SWMP focused on updating and translating the 1990 modeling into a HydroCAD® model and analyzing select problem areas in the City. For this 2012 plan update hydrologic /hydraulic modeling has been completed for problem areas as separate efforts and the focus is on pulling together existing information related to the City's surface water systems into one easy to use management tool. A GIS -based mapping tool which organizes and inventories studies, projects, and current issues of the City's surface water resources accompanies this plan document. The CSWMP was developed through a process of soliciting input from City Commissions, Council and the public on water resources issues, specific problem areas and potential new topic areas and/or actions that the plan should address. Input was obtained through a series of meetings and providing plan information on the City's stormwater web page. A summary of those efforts follows: • Parks and Recreation Commission Meeting • Public Works, Environmental and Transportation Commission — 3 Meetings • Public Open House Meeting • City Council Review and Adoption of the Plan This CSMWP is organized into the following sections: • Section 1.0 describes the plan purpose, organization and scope as well as sustainability within the plan. • Section 2.0 describes the physical environment including climate, drainage, soils, geology, land use, water resources, and wildlife. • Section 3.0 describes the entities responsible for water resource management. • Section 4.0 describes the City's goals and policies regarding surface water management. • Section 5.0 describes resolved and ongoing issues. • Section 0 describes the implementation plan and funding program. • Section 7.0 describes the plan adoption and amendment process.
