As the result of previous collaboration, the District and RWMWD had the same standards for all criteria except wetland management. The CRWD criterion for wetlands is more restrictive than the RWMWD because the CRWD only has 1.4% of its wetlands remaining. The RWMWD has over 8% of its land area as wetlands. Based on comments received at that meeting and additional rule development efforts, the District completed the drafting of the proposed Rule during August and September 2005. On October 5,2005, the District adopted the SONAR and authorized the distribution of the draft Rules to interested stakeholders for review and comment. (See Appendix K) The District accepted comments for a 45-day period ending on November 25,2005, and held a public hearing on November 16,2005. During the 45-day review period, the District held a meeting with its member Cities to review the draft Rules. At the public hearing an extension of the comment period to December 15, 2005 was requested and granted by the Managers. Many of the comments received pertained to the volume control rule and its implementation on road projects. (See Appendix L) Additionally, there was a request for a Technical Advisroy Committee (T AC) to address the concerns raised during the comment period. On January 4,2006 the Manager's established a joint TAC with Ramsey-Washington Metro Watershed District and adopted a workplan and timeline for the Committee. (See Appendix M) The workplan directed the committee to discuss and make recommendations on 5 main topics: . 1" Infiltration Standard . Roads/Linear Projects . StandardINon-Linear Projects . Alternative Compliance (Off-site Compliance, Variances) . Maintenance/Longevity . Definitions, Ambiguities, Misc.
