Management Plan. It was unanticipated that the four map figures contained in the 2001 version of the Plan were no longer available because the technology utilized to create these figures is not compatible with the current mapping technology. To include and update the four maps contained in the 2001 version of the Plan, as required by State rules, will require additional data and GIS work at a cost of $1,505. Member Miller questioned whether the GLWMO will own the data and GIS files need to produce the new maps. Camilla Correll of EOR stated that the data will be the property of the GLWMO. Motion 11 -02 -02 Member Miller moved, Member Westerberg second Approve reimbursing EOR for the added costs of generating 4 new map figures for the 3rd Generation Watershed Management Plan in the amount of $1,505.00. All voted in favor.

Impaired waters Status for Lake Judy and Lake Emily Chair pro tem Eckman explained that an opportunity exists to secure MPCA funds to perform watershed assessments and TMDL studies for Lake Judy and Lake Emily if the GLWMO acts at this meeting. Andrea Plevan from EOR explained the program, currently being offered by the MPCA, to perform TMDL studies for water resources suspected as being "Impaired" for nutrients. Preliminary data shows that Lakes Emily and Judy will show impairment for nutrients. It was determined that the GLWMO should take advantage of this opportunity to leverage State funding for the necessary analysis of the aforementioned Lakes. Member Westerberg suggested that Lake Owasso be added to the MPCA study request because of its hydrologic connection to the mentioned Lakes and the high probability that Owasso may also be impaired for nutrients. Motion 11 -02 -04 Member Miller moved, second by Member Westerberg Pursue funding from the MPCA for complete TMDL studies for Lake Judy, Lake Emily, and Bennett Lake, and for a complete watershed assessment to provide protection measures for Lake Owasso. All voted in favor. Motion 11 -02 -05 Member Miller moved, second by Member Westerberg- to adjourn the meeting at 3:15 PM. All voted in favor.
