December 12, 2014

Project Name:

Ford Parkway

Applicant:

Molly Churchich Ramsey County Public Works Representative 1425 Paul Kirkwood Drive Arden Hills, MN 55112

Purpose:

Add bump-outs to intersections and replace shared turn median with a vegetated median

Location:

Ford Parkway from Howell St. to Snelling Ave in St. Paul

Applicable Rules:

C, D, and F

Recommendation:

Approve with 6 Conditions

EXHIBITS: 1. Plan sheets, by Ramsey County, not dated, rcd. 12/2/14.

2. Project narrative and stormwater management plan, by Ramsey Country, dated 12/1/14, rcd. 12/2/14.

3. Soil boring logs, by Ramsey County, dated 10/21/14, rcd. 10/29/14.

HISTORY & CONSIDERATIONS: None.

RULE C: STORMWATER MANAGEMENT Standards  Proposed discharge rates for the 2-, 10-, and 100-year events shall not exceed existing rates.  Developments and redevelopments must reduce runoff volumes in the amount equivalent to an inch of runoff from the impervious areas of the site.  Stormwater must be pretreated before discharging to infiltration areas to maintain the long-term viability of the infiltration area.

W:\07 Programs\Permitting\2014\14-035 Ford Parkway\14-035 Ford Pkwy RSVP_Review 02 fjk edits.doc

Page 1 of 4

ďƒ˜ Developments and redevelopments must incorporate effective non-point source pollution reduction BMPs to achieve 90% total suspended solid removal.

Findings 1. A hydrograph method based on sound hydrologic theory is used to analyze runoff for the design or analysis of flows and water levels.

2. Runoff rates for the project site do not exceed existing runoff rates for the 2-, 10-, and 100-year critical storm events. Stormwater leaving the project area is discharged into a well-defined receiving channel or pipe and routed to a public drainage system.

3. Stormwater runoff volume retention is not achieved onsite in the amount equivalent to the runoff generated from one inch of rainfall over the impervious surfaces of the development. a. The amount of proposed impervious onsite is 253,084 square feet. b. Volume retention: Volume Retention Required (cu. ft.) Volume Retention Provided (cu. ft.)

BMP Volume Below Tree Trench 1 353 cf 18,981 Tree Trench 2 751 cf Tree Trench 3 739 cf Total 1,843 cf c. Infiltration volume and facility sizes have been calculated using the appropriate hydrological soil group classification and design infiltration rate. d. The infiltration areas are capable of infiltrating the required volume within 48 hours. e. Stormwater runoff is pretreated to remove solids before discharging to infiltration areas.

4. Alternative compliance sequencing has been requested. a. The applicant partially complied with the volume retention standard. b. The project is linear, and the cost cap has been reached. i. Cost cap: $174,300 ii. Estimated construction cost: $177,693.78 5. Best management practices do not achieve 90% total suspended solids removal from the runoff generated on an annual basis. However, the cost cap has been reached so no additional water quality treatment is required.

6. A memorandum of agreement for maintenance of stormwater facilities exists between Ramsey County and the CRWD. RULE D: FLOOD CONTROL Standards ďƒ˜ Compensatory storage shall be provided for fill placed within the 100-year floodplain.

W:\07 Programs\Permitting\2014\14-035 Ford Parkway\14-035 Ford Pkwy RSVP_Review 02 fjk edits.doc

Page 2 of 4

 All habitable buildings, roads, and parking structures on or adjacent to a project site shall comply with District freeboard requirements.

Findings 1. There is no floodplain on the property according to FEMA. 2. It is not known if all habitable buildings, roads, and parking structures on or adjacent to the project site comply with CRWD freeboard requirements.

However, sufficient conveyances have been provided to allow the storm sewer system to function as or better than it did prior to the project.

RULE E: WETLAND MANAGEMENT Standard  Wetlands shall not be drained, filled (wholly or in part), excavated, or have sustaining hydrology impacted such that there will be a decrease in the inherent (existing) functions and values of the wetland.  A minimum buffer of 25 feet of permanent nonimpacted vegetative ground cover abutting and surrounding a wetland is required.

Findings 1. There are no known wetlands located on the property RULE F: EROSION AND SEDIMENT CONTROL Standards  A plan shall demonstrate that appropriate erosion and sediment control measures protect downstream water bodies from the effects of a landdisturbing activity.  Erosion Control Plans must adhere to the MPCA Protecting Water Quality in Urban Areas Manual.

Findings 1. Erosion and sediment control measures are consistent with best management practices, as demonstrated in the MPCA manual Protecting Water Quality in Urban Areas.

2. Adjacent properties are protected from sediment transport/deposition.

3. Wetlands, waterbodies and water conveyance systems are protected from erosion/sediment transport/deposition.

4. Project site is greater than 1 acre; an NPDES permit is required.

RULE G: ILLICIT DISCHARGE AND CONNECTION Standard  Stormwater management and utility plans shall indicate all existing and proposed connections from developed and undeveloped lands for all water that drains to the District MS4.

W:\07 Programs\Permitting\2014\14-035 Ford Parkway\14-035 Ford Pkwy RSVP_Review 02 fjk edits.doc

Page 3 of 4

Findings 1. New direct connections or replacement of existing connections are not proposed.

2. Prohibited discharges are not proposed.

RECOMMENDATION: Approve with 6 Conditions Conditions: 1. Provide plans signed by a professional engineer per the Minnesota Board of AELSLAGID. 2. Provide a copy of the NPDES permit.

3. Maximize tree trench storage volume by a combination of the following: a. Increase trench pipe inverts b. Decrease trench pipe diameter c. Decrease pipe slope d. Increase trench rock depth 4. In the Tree Trench detail on sheet 55, the total “special filter aggregate� depth for Tree Trench 1 should be 3.5 feet.

5. Provide specification for pipe perforation size, frequency, and orientation.

6. Remove the underdrain from the design. The identified locations are suitable for infiltration and an underdrain would require the design to comply with filtration guidelines.

Ms. Hosch reviewed Permit #07-025 McDonough Housing and 09-008 McDonough Housing Phase V & VI. The final inspections were conducted in the summer of 2014. All of the temporary BMPs have been removed and the soil has been stabilized. Construction as-builts have been submitted and the BMPs were installed as approved. Maintenance Agreements for the onsite stormwater management practices have been recorded with Ramsey County.

No surety was required for these two permits because they are with a public entity.

Motion 14-246: Approve Certificate of Completion for permit 07-025 McDonough Housing.

Special Reports

Highland Ravine Stabilization Project Update (Eleria) Ms. Eleria and Mr. Shoemaker provided the Board of Managers with a project review of the Highland Ravine.

Ms. Eleria reviewed that in 2007 problems with the area were first identified. In 2010 CRWD commenced its work with a feasibility study that determined the extent and causes of erosion in the ravine and flooding to downstream properties. The feasibility study also identified strategies to address these water-related issues, which included rock grade control structures, side slope stabilization measures, and a stormwater pond. In early 2012, CRWD received a State Clean Water Fund (CWF) Grant of $150,000 to design and construct ravine stabilization measures in specific two areas of Highland Ravine. In late 2012, CRWD hired Wenck Associates to design and engineer the ravine stabilization project and provide construction engineering services. The Board awarded the construction project in May 2014 to Sunram Construction based on its bid of $312,622, the lowest of three bids received.

Construction of the Highland Ravine Stabilization Project commenced on September 15, 2014. Anticipated to be completed in one month, an additional month was needed to finish the project due to rain, active groundwater seepage in both ravine areas, and side slope instability and slumping. The major construction activities included installation of rock grade control structures in the ravine channels, placement of brush bundles and biologs on the side slopes, construction of stormwater pond in Ravine 1, replacement of the City’s sanitary sewer, and restoration of the disturbed construction areas.

Mr. Shoemaker provided a presentation of the project, reviewing the numerous areas in need of stabilization. The project had many obstacles. Because of the extremely wet conditions, equipment would often get stuck.

Neighbors had numerous concerns throughout the project including views, and impact on wildlife. Some of these concerns added additional delays to the project. Mr. Shoemaker reviewed a time lapsed photo revealing the transformation of one area. A check list of restoration items will be addressed in the spring of 2015.

The Board of Managers thanked Ms. Eleria and Mr. Shoemaker for their work on this project.

Approve 2015 Partner Grants (Van Patten)

Ms. Van Patten thanked Managers Thienes and Texer for their work on the Partner Grants. At the October 10, 2014 CAC meeting members Michelle Ulrich and Kathryn Swanson were appointed to the Partner Grant Review Committee. The District received 14 Partner Grant applications during the application period of October 2 November 7, 2014. Staff reviewed all applications and made preliminary recommendations.

The 2015 Partner Grants budget is $75,000. On November 18, the Partner Grant Review Committee of Managers Texer and Thienes and CAC members, Michelle Ulrich and Kathryn Swanson reviewed 2015 CRWD Partner Grant applications and made recommendations. Some applications were not recommended for funding because of a weaker connection to CRWD’s stormwater improvement goals as expressed in the 2014-15 Education and Outreach Plan. It is recommended that the Willow Reserve Cleanup project be funded through the Wetland Restoration budget and that CRWD provide FMR a $3,500 sponsorship in lieu of funding #12 FMR – Landscape for the River Community Workshops.

Motion 14-249: Approve 2015 Partner Grants as recommended by the Partner Grant Review Committee and authorize Administrator to enter into grant agreements with grantee organizations.

Approve 2015 Special Grants (Zwontizer)

Mr. Zwontizer informed the Board of Managers that the cistern at the Lowertown Ball Park was installed this week. Mr. Zwontizer shared pictures of the cistern construction and the equipment that will be installed for the cistern. An educational kiosk will be linked to the cistern to give live up to date information.

Mr. Zwontizer reviewed that for the past several years the District has budgeted funds for budget fund 440 Special Projects and Grants. The District typically sets a preliminary budget amount and then solicits applications for projects to fund. Applications for 2015 Special Grant funds were due October 10, 2014. CRWD received 12 project applications totaling $1.67 million.

A review committee consisting of two board members and two Citizen Advisory Committee members met twice to review applications and develop a funding recommendation. Several projects were identified for funding through other district programs/initiatives. A few projects were selected to receive the full funding request, while most projects are being recommended for a portion of their request. In total, $486,267 of the $550,000 available is recommended for project funding. The remaining funds could be used to supplement projects if additional opportunities are identified.

After grant funds are awarded, staff will work with applicants to further develop/refine projects so an agreement can be finalized. The majority of projects this will take place in 2015. At that point applicants can move forward with their project with the involvement of CRWD staff.

Motion 14-250: Commit $150,000 from the 2016 Special Grants budget for construction of BMPs at Central High School and approve funding for 2015 Special Grants as follows: a. Dellwood Gardens - $30,500 for additional design b.

Approve Amendment with Houston Engineering for Curtiss Pond Improvement Project

Mr. Fossum reviewed that at the June 5, 2013 Board meeting the Managers approved the Final Design of the Curtiss Pond Improvement for an amount not to exceed $51,000. At the March 19, 2014 Board meeting, the Managers approved Contract Amendment #1 with Houston Engineering for Bidding and Construction Management for an amount of $49,584, for a total contract amount not to exceed $100,584.

Soils with construction and other debris were found at Curtiss Field during the initial stages of the project.

There was additional time spent by CRWD’s engineer, Houston Engineering, Inc. to determine how to properly dispose of the debris. Additional engineering costs relative to investigation, identification, removal, and hauling of regulated fill to a landfill were incurred during the project. Additional soil screening and lab analysis were also part of this work. These costs were outside the approved scope of work and require a contract amendment.

Motion 14-251: Approve Contract Amendment #2 with Houston Engineering for the Curtiss Pond Improvement Project for Final Design Engineering and authorize Administrator to execute the Amendment in an amount of $11,200, for a total contract amount not to exceed $111,784.

December 17, 2014 Regular Board Meeting V. Action Items E) Approve Contract Amendment with SRF Consulting for Upper Villa Volume Reduction Project (Kelley)

DATE: December 11, 2014 TO: CRWD Board of Managers FROM: Forrest Kelley, Regulatory and Construction Program Manager RE: Contract Amendment with SRF Consulting for Upper Villa Volume Reduction Project ____________________________________________________________________________________ Background In September 2012, CRWD entered into a contract with SRF Consulting Group for the analysis, design and construction of a volume reduction BMP within the Villa Park subwatershed of Lake McCarrons for $128,000. In April 2014, staff approved Contract Amendment #1 in the amount of $16,104 for the Reuse Feasibility Study in order to assess the costs and benefits of adding a stormwater harvest and reuse for irrigation of the softball field at Upper Villa Park. The project is nearing final design with only the component layout and cost estimates to be finalized.

Discussion SRF has submitted a proposed contract and budget amendment for increased costs resulting from work outside of the original project scope, and additional work due to the complexities associated with design and construction of a combined storage, irrigation, and infiltration system. Also included are 4 additional 30 foot soil borings conducted this fall in order to better characterize the soil conditions in the preferred BMP locations. Staff have reviewed the proposal, and find the increased hours and costs to be reasonable for the amount of additional engineering work necessary for the project. Staff worked with SRF to reduce the initially proposed increase from $52,127 down to $29,384. The new total contract amount if approved will be $174,488.

Requested Actions Approve Contract Amendment #2 with SRF Consulting Group for the Upper Villa Reuse and Volume Reduction BMP project in an amount not to exceed $29,384.
