November 19, 2014 Board Meeting Special Report: Community Capacity Survey Update

DATE: TO: FROM: RE:

November 14, 2014 CRWD Board of Managers Elizabeth Beckman Special Report: Community Capacity Survey Preliminary Interview Results

Background In fall 2013, CRWD began a partnership with Ramsey Washington Metro Watershed District and Mississippi Watershed Management Organization to study individual actions and behaviors as well as public decision making within the framework of a community’s actual ability and power – its capacity – to engage in clean water behaviors. This joint watershed Community Capacity Study is led by Professor Mae Davenport of University of Minnesota Department of Forestry.

Issues The study will include interviews, focus groups and a mail survey. Twenty interviews with business and community leaders along the Green Line and on Saint Paul’s East Side have been completed. Ms. Davenport’s presentation will be a summary of interview results and preliminary analysis of behavior drivers and constraints, values and beliefs, and perceptions of clean water programs.

Forthcoming deliverables are three focus groups, a mail survey, a one-year progress report in early 2015 and a final technical report in late 2015 outlining recommendations for tailoring CRWD’s education, communication and outreach programming.

Request Action None requested.

Special Reports

2014 Fish Survey: Como and Little Crosby Lakes, Sarah Wein Ms. Wein reviewed the 2014 Fish Survey completed at Como Lake and Little Crosby Lake. In 2013, CRWD contracted Wenck Associates, Inc. to complete a statistical analysis of CRWD lake data to determine if any water quality trends exist and what factors could be causing these trends. One major recommendation from the report was to increase monitoring of biological data, as many of these parameters (aquatic vegetation, zooplankton and phytoplankton abundance, and fish populations) could be having an effect which cannot be determined by examining chemical and physical data alone. By obtaining data on biological parameters that have not been monitored in the past or have been monitored infrequently, a better picture of what is happening within the District’s lakes can be obtained.

At the April 16th, 2014 Board meeting, the Managers approved the Monitoring Program Review and 2014-2016 Recommendations, including Recommendation 14: Enhance lake monitoring and conduct a more complete analysis. Also at the April 16th, 2014 Board meeting, the Managers reviewed the Enhanced Lake Biological Monitoring Work Plan, which included initiating annual fisheries surveys. The primary goal of this expanded monitoring is to enhance our understanding of how the biological, chemical, and physical parameters of a lake interact to shape lake water quality to better inform in-lake management decisions.

The District contracted Wenck Associates, Inc. to conduct fish surveys on Como and Little Crosby Lakes during the month of August as part of the program’s expanded monitoring goals. Wenck obtained a permit from the DNR to conduct both trap and gill net surveys. Como Lake was surveyed using 8 trap nets and two gill nets over the course of three days (4 trap nets/one gill net per day, repeated two days in a row). Little Crosby Lake was surveyed using 4 trap nets and one gill net in two days. Ms. Wein reviewed the process and results of the information gathered. Fish collected during the surveys were identified, weighed, and measured. All data was analyzed and compiled into a report produced by Wenck staff, where data was compared to previous DNR fish survey data (where applicable). Ms. Wein reported that Little Crosby had no historical data to compare to. At Little Crosby a number of turtles were found to have eaten many of the fish caught in the gill nets making it difficult to identify, weigh and measure. CRWD staff is in the process of incorporating this information into its annual lakes report.

No Action was requested.

FI: 2015 Special Grants Program Update (Zwonitzer)

Administrator Doneux reviewed the 2015 Special Grants Program in place of Mr. Zwonitzer. 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. Approximately $550,000 is budgeted in 2015 for the program. Applications will be reviewed by staff and a committee made up of two members each from the Board and CAC. The committee will likely meet twice to discuss the projects and will ultimately develop a funding recommendation for the Board of Managers. Staff will also review the 2015 budget to identify commonalities between grant applications and District goals which may provide additional project funding. The goal is to complete the review process in time for the Board to take action at the December 3, 2014 regular meeting.

Our Mission is to protect, manage and improve the water resources of Capitol Region Watershed District

Background CRWD adopted a policy for soliciting professional services in 2010. The current professional services policy requires varying approvals based on anticipated contract amounts (enclosed). In late 2010, the District requested qualifications and approved a consultant pool with service area qualifications. The current consultant pool for 2013-2014 is enclosed.

Issues Staff has prepared a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for general water resource professional services for 2015 and 2016. This would include requesting information regarding personnel, similar projects, billing rates and availability of staff. In addition each firm would also be able to identify which service area they are interested in working in and are uniquely qualified.

The District will review all submittals and determine which firms are qualified in each of the eight service areas. Those firms qualified in each area will be placed in a pool of professional service consultants for calendar years 2015-2016. The District then requests proposals (work orders) for projects from the pool within a respective service area as needed. A draft Request for Proposals has been prepared and included for review and comment.

Staff is seeking Board authorization to distribute and advertise the Request for Qualifications and for comments on the draft Request for Proposals.

EMAILED AND MAILED

Mr. Jim Haertel, Metro Region Manager Board of Water and Soil Resources 520 Lafayette Road North Saint Paul, MN 55155 RE: Proposed Permanent Rules Governing Metropolitan Area Local Water Management, Chapter 8410 Dear Mr. Haertel: Capitol Region Watershed District (CRWD) has reviewed the proposed amendments to Rules Governing Metropolitan Area Local Water Management, Chapter 8410. CRWD applauds BWSR’s effort to streamline and improve Chapter 8410.

CRWD is pleased to see numerous, common sense improvements to these proposed amendments. Namely allowing watershed plans to implement watershed restoration strategies and being the lead on developing TMDL plans is long overdue in streamlining watershed management at the local level in the Metropolitan area. Requiring local water plans to be part of local comprehensive plans as well as requiring revisions once every ten years are also major improvements in Chapter 8410. One omission in the proposed 8410.0105, Subp. 8 is not allowing a plan to serve as a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP).

The intent of Subpart 8 is for one plan to cover all of the watershed restoration and protection programs of the organization. Not allowing the SWPPP to also be included in a plan requires yet another separate plan to be completed by the organization when the activities are already addressed in the current plan.

The granting of additional time to complete an audit from four months to six months is another improvement in these rules. However, CRWD strongly recommends that the time to complete an organization’s annual report coincide with the six month audit deadline. Since the financial reports that are tied to the annual report could change or be amended following an audit, it makes common sense to also allow organizations six months to complete their annual/financial report to ensure accuracy and consistency between annual financial reports and audits. In addition, annual reports should also be considered as a SWPPP annual report. SWPPP annual report require essentially the same information as required under 8410.0150 Subpart 3. These amendments would have the added benefit of allowing organizations the ability to complete one combined report rather than three separate reports.

Thank you again for your efforts to improve and streamline local water management.

Our Mission is to protect, manage and improve the water resources of Capitol Region Watershed District.
