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.  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 proposed activity 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 achieved onsite in the amount equivalent to the runoff generated from 1.1‐inch of rainfall over the impervious surfaces of the development. a. The amount of proposed impervious is 112,415 ft2. b. Volume retention required: 112,415 ft2 x 1.1 inches x 1 ft/12 inches = 10,305 ft3 Table 1.

Murphy/Sanders Unanimously Approved B) 19-001 Fairview Ave – Closure (Hosch) Ms. Hosch reviewed permit #19-001 for Fairview Ave. This permit was issued for the reconstruction of Fairview Avenue between Shields and University in St. Paul. Stormwater is treated in one under-street infiltration trench that met the cost cap. The site is stable, and the trench function has been confirmed. No surety was required for this public project. Motion 20-223: Approve Certificate of Completion for permit #19-001, Fairview Ave. 2019. Murphy/Sanders Unanimously Approved C) 20-018 2227 University (Hosch) Ms. Hosch reviewed permit #20-018 for 2227 University. The applicant, Paster Properties will demo existing building and construct a new 5-story, mixed use with commercial and residential units with underground parking. The applicable rules are Stormwater Management (Rule C), Flood Control (Rule D), and Erosion and Sediment Control (Rule F). The disturbed area of this project is 1.03 acres with .765 acres impervious surface. Manager Texer asked for clarification on the address of the building being demolished. Mr. Catchpool clarified that 2225 and 2227 University will be combined into one permit. Motion 20-224: Approve with 5 Conditions Conditions: 1. Receipt of $4,500 surety. 2. Receipt of documentation of maintenance agreement recorded with Ramsey County. 3. Provide a copy of the NPDES permit. 4. Provide detail for green roof to ensure sufficient soil depth to collect runoff. 5. Revise model or plans to correspond for the filtration basin (See HydroCAD Output Below): a. Invert for the rock is 882.77’ in the HydroCAD and 882.14’ on Sheet C702 in the plans.

b. Invert for the StormTech Chambers is 883.52’ in the HydroCAD and 882.89’ on Sheet C702 in the plans. c. Invert for the Sand Section is 881.27’ in HydroCAD and 880.64’ on Sheet C702 in the plans. d. Rock prismatoid width is 29.92’ in HydroCAD and 30.72’ on Sheet C703 in the plans. e.

Number of StormTech chambers is 52 in the HydroCAD and 49 on Sheet C703 in the plans. h. Revise outlet sizes, quantity, and elevations to match the plans. The HydroCAD output below shows the corrected outlet configuration. Murphy/Sanders Unanimously Approved D) 20-033 Exeter Territorial Road (Hosch) Ms. Hosch reviewed permit #20-033 for Exeter Territorial Road. The applicant, Exeter Territorial will demo an existing office building and parking lot. The applicable rules are Stormwater Management (Rule C), Flood Control (Rule D), and Erosion and Sediment Control (Rule F). The disturbed area of this project is 2.1 acres with 1.78 acres impervious surface. Motion 20-225: Approve with 8 Conditions Conditions: 1. Receipt of $8,900 surety. 2. Receipt of documentation of maintenance agreement recorded with Ramsey County. 3. Provide plans signed by a professional engineer per the Minnesota Board of AELSLAGID. 4. Provide a copy of the NPDES permit. 5. Include a site-specific maintenance plan that includes the following: a. List all stormwater management practices. b. Person(s) responsible for maintenance of stormwater devices(s). c. Frequency of inspection/ indicator that maintenance is needed. d. Description of inspection activities. e. Description of maintenance activities. 6. Provide a landscaping plan. 7. Revise plans to address the following: a. Add notes to Sheet C300 to clarify discharge location for perimeter drain tile and trench drain. Notes 10 and 12 on Sheet C300 indicate drainage to building sump, but it is not clear where building sump discharges. Do not connect the building sump and foundation draintile to the infiltration system. CRWD understands that the perimeter drain tile will be connected to STRM #2 downstream of the weir and the trench drain will discharge to the infiltration system, but this is not clearly stated in the plans. b. Provide specification for “Select Granular Borrow” in Keyed Note 5 on Sheet C200 to be used for fill under the infiltration systems. 8. Revise HydroCAD model or plans to correspond for the 36” Infiltration System. The length of the rock prismatoid is 20 feet in HydroCAD and 17 feet on Sheet C300. Similarly, the Row Length Adjustment is -10 feet in HydroCAD and -13 feet on Sheet C300. These related changes will decrease volume retention and increase the system HWL.

Murphy/Sanders Unanimously Approved IV.

Special Reports – No Special Reports

Action Items A) AR: Approve Minutes of the November 18, 2020 Regular Meeting (Sylvander)

Manager Texer noted a correction under Action Item D Authorize CRWD Annual Meeting Delegates to vote on MAWD Resolutions consistent with Resolution Committee Recommendations. Motion 20-226: Approve the Minutes of the November 18, 2020 Regular Meeting with correction. Murphy/Sanders Unanimously Approved B) AR: Approve Stewardship Grant for Bang Brewing (Lundgren) Ms. Lundgren reviewed Bang Brewing, located in the St. Anthony Park neighborhood of Saint Paul at 2320 Capp Road. In 2016, Bang Brewing received approximately $10,000 in grant funds from CRWD and Ramsey Soil and Water Conservation Division (RCSWCD) for two rain gardens at the brewery. Last year, Bang Brewing purchased the adjacent parcel and is proposing to construct an 850 square foot rain garden that will capture 15,725 square feet of untreated parking lot and rooftop runoff. CRWD and RCSWCD have provided a watershed analysis and developed construction site plans for the proposed rain garden. The 850 square foot rain garden will include two basins sized to capture and infiltrate 0.9” rain events from Bang Brewing’s parking lot and the adjacent parking lot at 2325 Endicott Street owned by Deneen Pottery. Deneen Pottery is aware of the rain garden installation and has not indicated any intention of redirecting stormwater on the parking lot for the life expectancy of the stormwater best management practices (BMPs). Each basin will have an inlet with a pretreatment device. The rain garden will capture 126,325 cubic feet of stormwater per year (a 70% reduction). Total suspended solids and total phosphorus will be reduced by 70% and 69%, respectively. The contractor estimates a project cost of $55,141. CRWD staff has determined by using the Stewardship Grant Calculator an award not to exceed $28,945. The grant award is reflective of the water quality benefit this project is designed to provide. A minimum 25% match is required for businesses. Bang Brewing is responsible for the remaining costs of the project, which exceeds the 25% match requirement. Motion 20-227: Approve a grant award to Bang Brewing for an amount not to exceed $28,945 and authorize the District Administrator to execute a grant agreement. Murphy/Sanders Unanimously approved

C) AR: Adopt Bylaws and Committee Structure (Doneux) Administrator Doneux reviewed that in 1999, the Board of Managers establish the first Bylaws that provide rules for governing and the conduct and procedure of business for the Board. This was one (1) year after the formation of the District and prior to hiring staff. The Bylaws were updated in 2004 and last updated 11 years ago in 2009. In 2002, the Board first established several Board Committees to conduct business of the organization. At that time seven (7) committees were formed. Since 2002, the Board has expanded the number of committees thirteen (13). At the November 4, 2020 Board Workshop and November 18, 2020 Board meeting, the Bylaws and Committee assignments were discussed. At the November 28th Board meeting, several recommended changes were offered regarding the duties of the officers. No significant changes were offered to the new committee structure except to note that “Other Appointments” would be called “Other Appointments or Assignments” and the Nominating Committee would be included in this group. It was recommended that the Board make changes to the Bylaws and Committees so that those changes could be done in advance of the annual meeting to be held on December 16th. Manager Texer recommended two clarifications to the bylaws. Motion 20-228: Adopt Updated Bylaws and Committee Structure. Murphy/Sanders Unanimously approved D) AR: Approve Updated COVID-19 Response and Preparedness Plan (Doneux) Administrator Doneux reviewed that Capitol Region Watershed District is following the Minnesota Department of Health’s (MDH) guidance to slow the spread of COVID-19 and reduce impacts to health and safety as well as complying with the Governor’s declaration of a peacetime state of emergency. CRWD’s office was closed to the public starting on Tuesday, March 17, 2020. Staff have been working remotely, except for essential services, and will be available via phone or email. On April 1, 2020 the Board adopted COVID-19 Response Plan and a list of Essential Services consistent with the Governors Emergency Executive Order 2020. The Board also affirmed that CRWD Board meetings will be conducted electronically. On November 5, 2020, Governor Tim Waltz issued Emergency Executive Order 20-94 that is an update to Executive Order 20-8 authorizing and directing the Commissioner of Education to require school districts and charter schools to provide a safe and effective learning environment for Minnesota’s students during the 202021 school year. On November 12, 2020, Governor Tim Walz issued Emergency Executive Order 20-97 extending the Stay-at-Home Order through December 15, 2020. CRWD’s response plan was extended to require that staff work from home unless performing essential services as approved by their supervisor or for minimum basic operations and non-critical office-based business work. On November 18, 2020 Governor Tim Walz issued executive order 20-99 that implements a four week dial back on certain activities to slow the spread of covid-19. Executive Orders 20-94, 20-97 and 20-99 taken together along with the determination of state government to work from home until June of 2021 and a significant increase in positive COVID-19 cases in Ramsey County has prompted me to recommend that CRWD to extend its Work from Home requirement until, at least, June

30, 2021. In addition to this update, Appendix B- COVID-19 Positive Test/Exposure/Symptoms Response Protocol has also been updated to provide better alignment with current MN Department of Health and CDC guidance. Motion 20-229: Approve Updated COVID-19 Response and Preparedness Plan. Murphy/Sanders Unanimously approved E) AR: Approve Work from Home Allowance Policy (Doneux) Administrator Doneux reviewed that the District has closed its office due to Governor Walz’s Peacetime Emergency Orders regarding COVID-19. All work and official meetings have been and will be conducted electronically until further notice. The District will continue to expect staff to follow the Work Off Site Policy. It is contemplated that working off site (Work from Home) and remote Board meetings will continue through June 30, 2021. In 2006, the District authorized a Cell Phone Allowance Policy that paid staff an allowance of $24/month for official use of a personal cell phone. The allowance approach was implemented due to the extreme difficulty in determining appropriate business versus personal use costs in monthly cell phone bills. Currently, we have a similar situation where we have directed staff to work from home and they are incurring costs that are directly related to conducting official business at their home. Actual costs could include computer equipment like a keyboard, monitor or mouse, or furniture like a chair or desk. Others have inquired about reimbursement for improved home internet service. A Work and Meeting Off Site Allowance Policy is recommended to provide an allowance for employees and Board Managers to offset costs associated with working and meeting off site work. Similar to cell phone bills, work and meeting off site expenses would be highly variable and the administrative burden of determining eligibility of these expenses and reimbursements would be an additional burden on staff already working predominantly from home. An analysis of 2019 versus 2020 office operating costs indicated that the District is spending somewhere between $1,500-$2,000 less per month since the work from home order began. This proposal could cost the District approximately $1,200 per month if all employees and Board members request the allowance.

Administrator Doneux questioned if liability is increased by offering an allowance. Attorney Mogen responded to Administrator Doneux’s concerns of liability issues. Attorney Mogen felt the issue of liability was not an issue due to the Governor’s orders. Motion 20-230: Approve Work and Meeting Off Site Allowance Policy Murphy/Sanders Unanimously approved VI.

A virtual workshop was held on October 7 for 28 prospective grantees to discuss the application and contracting process and for staff to present program priorities with the goal of receiving stronger proposals. Applicants were asked to address how COVID-19 restrictions would impact the execution of their proposal and proposals serving communities in CRWDâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s identified key watersheds of Trout Brook, Phalen Creek, Saint Anthony Hill, Como Lake or Lake McCarrons would receive additional consideration. Update Proposals for 2021 Partner Grants were due November 1. CRWD received 26 applications totaling $330,758. The 2021 Partner Grants budget is $135,000. On November 30, the Partner Grant Review Committee consisting of President Collins, Manager Murphy and CAC members David Arbeit and Mary Lilly reviewed the applications and staff recommendation and agreed on the proposed funding recommendation shown in the enclosure. The Committee developed recommendations totaling $140,500 for 18 proposals or $5,500 over the 2021 budget for the program. Staff request the Board amend the 2021 Partner Grant Program budget to support the projects and programs recommended by the Committee. The Committee continued to discuss how to review proposals and support grantees that have received funding for several consecutive years as well as new partnerships. A meeting with program staff and the 2021 Partner Grant Review Committee will be scheduled for early 2021 to discuss program improvements including budgeting and the review process.

December 10, 2020 CRWD Board of Managers Bob Fossum, Division Manager Research Program

Background Funding for Research has been included in CRWDâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Budget and Workplan in each year from 2014â&#x20AC;&#x201D; 2020. Multiple small-scale research projects have been funded and completed by District staff as well as through partnerships with local research institutions. Since 2017, CRWD has contributed to the MN Stormwater Research Council to jointly fund applied stormwater research. Issues Over the past three years, the Managers have approved an annual $25,000 contribution to the MN Stormwater Research Council. This money along with funding from other organizations has totaled $325,000 and has funded twenty projects. This level of effort would not be possible without the collective approach being implemented. Staff will review the projects currently underway and request contribution for the next round of funding that is currently being solicited. Fiscal Note: 2020 Budget for 228-20330 District Research Program is $50,850. Requested Action Approve contribution for the MN Stormwater Research Council for $25,000. enc:

MN Stormwater Research Council Request for Funds

W:\07 Programs\Research\MN Stormwater Research Council\2020\Brd Memo - 12-10-2020.docx

Minnesota Stormwater Research Council September 2020

2020 Applied stormwater research project funding request The Minnesota Stormwater Research Council (Council) in partnership with the University of Minnesota Water Resources Center (WRC) is soliciting a request for funds to complete collaborative applied research to address priority stormwater management needs for Minnesota. Over the past three years, more than $325K was contributed and pooled together from watershed organizations, cities, organizations and private businesses. These were then leveraged with Clean Water Legacy funds to support twenty research projects and support the use of that information by professionals, practitioners, and policy makers. This collective and collaborative work helps prevent, minimize and mitigate the impacts of urban stormwater runoff. The portfolio of this work being conducted by the Council and the Water Resources Center continues to grow. We encourage you to review the 2019-2020 Program Highlights - a short, fullcolor easy read summary of the program’s success and efforts available online HERE. A few examples of the work being funded include: ● Determining which iron minerals in iron-enhanced sand filters remove phosphorus from stormwater runoff (completed in 2019) ● Capture of Gross Solids and Sediment by Pretreatment Practices for Bioretention (completed in 2020) ● Equipping Municipalities with Climate Change Data to Inform Stormwater Management (started in 2020) ● Pollutant Removal and Maintenance Assessment of Underground Filtration Systems (started in 2020) These are just some of the twenty projects seeking to find new information to make urban stormwater management and practices more effectives and more efficient. Find out more about all these projects online at www.wrc.umn.edu/projects/stormwater. Why contribute: These investments in research will lead to more innovative management techniques and increased effectiveness and efficiency in stormwater management, fulfilling critical needs for professionals and policy makers in cities, watersheds, agencies and organizations across Minnesota. Your organization’s financial contribution to the Council directly supports research important to you. Pooling resources provides a mechanism for completing work together. The annual goal is to acquire $150K or more in pooled funds. Your indication for contributing support is appreciated before October 31, 2020, but is welcome at any time. Use the online form (HERE) to indicate your organization’s financial support.

The operation of the Council allows these pooled funds to be used to support future projects and also support the following recently selected 2020 projects: ● Understanding Solids Loading in Minnesota Stormwater ● Biofiltration Media Optimization – Phase II:Multi-Year Performance, Impacts of Road Salt, and Optimized Organic Ratio ● Leveraging Minnesota’s stormwater data for improved modeling and management of water quality in cities ● Evaluation of Microbial and Chemical Contaminant Removals in Different Stormwater Reuse Systems ● Equipping municipalities with climate change data to inform stormwater management ● Field evaluation of stormwater best management practices to characterize the comprehensive contaminant removal performance of biochar-augmented filter media ● Pollutant Removal and Maintenance Assessment of Underground Filtration Systems ● Monitoring Methods for Prioritization and Assessment of Stormwater Practices Management and use of funds  The use of pooled applied research funds will be managed by the Advisory Board of the Council in partnership with the WRC.  Submissions and projects will be reviewed, ranked, and awarded as determined by the Advisory Board of the Council and by the WRC.  All researchers, professionals, and experts from Minnesota will be invited to submit proposals. Organizations contributing funds and their staff are eligible to apply. The Council and Center has a process to manage conflicts of interest in its review, ranking, and awarding of projects.  Acknowledgement of funding partners is required by the researchers for each project and on WRC and Council reports, website and other publications.  Contributing organizations and businesses are invoiced for their amount of support; no contracting is executed between the organization and the Council and the WRC.  Once chosen, funded researchers enter into a contract with the WRC with requirements for reporting, recognition of the funding sources, methods, data collection and sharing, quality assurance, and other standard University contracting requirements.

December 16, 2020 Board Meeting V. F) Amendment with Barr Engineering for Seminary Pond Project Engineering (Eleria)

DATE: TO: FROM: RE:

December 10, 2020 CRWD Board of Managers Anna Eleria, Division Manager Approve Amendment with Barr Engineering for Seminary Pond Improvement Project

Background In late September 2020, CRWD’s Board of Managers issued a notice of award to Nadeau Companies for construction of the Seminary Pond Improvement Project. Design engineering and construction management services has been provided by Barr Engineering. In June 2020, the Board approved an agreement amendment for Barr Engineering in the amount of $73,200 for bidding, permitting and construction management services. Since June, CRWD’s Administrator has approved two additional amendments to Barr’s agreement for the following work: 1) additional support on wetland permitting, easement and agreement development and bidding and 2) design services for interpretive signage. The amendment amounts are $11,490 and $6,535, respectively. Issues With over 60% of construction completed as of this date, CRWD and Barr Engineering anticipate the need for additional budget for surveying and construction administration and observation (C&A). Originally, it was assumed that the contractor would conduct surveying, however based on their method of surveying and staking, it was determined that Barr should conduct survey work. A total of three survey visits are needed totaling $5,240. In addition, it was assumed back in June that active construction would last eight weeks, and Barr’s C&A budget reflected this timeframe. However, active construction is anticipated to extend an additional 4-6 weeks due to weather conditions and delay in receiving the easement for east outfall work. Additional C&A services may cost up to $19,980. In total, the additional scope of work for Barr is estimated to cost $25,220. Attached is Barr’s letter explaining the need and reasons for additional work and budget. Action Requested Approve an agreement amendment with Barr Engineering for construction management services for the Seminary Pond Improvement Project in an amount not to exceed $25,220. Enc.

Barr Engineering amendment letter dated December 10, 2020

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

December 10, 2020 Ms. Anna Eleria Division Manager Capitol Region Watershed District 595 Aldine Street Saint Paul, MN 55104 Re: Seminary Pond Stormwater Improvement Project Amendment No. 7 Dear Anna: As requested in your December 2, 2020, email Barr proposes to perform additional construction administration services in support of improvements to Seminary Pond and ravines in Lauderdale, Minnesota. Amendment No. 4 included $59,990 for construction services, including $46,235 for construction administration and observation services (the remainder for construction reporting and closeout). As of December 4, 2020, we have spent $49,500 on construction administration and observation services, some of it on out-of-scope work. We anticipate that with the contractorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s schedule extending longer than anticipate, we will need additional budget for construction administration and observation. The reasons for these anticipated additional costs are summarized in the following tasks:

Task 1: Survey Survey was not included in Amendment No. 4 and was originally assumed to be a contractor cost; however, based on the method of the contractorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s surveying and staking, changed conditions since the original Barr survey (at the East Outfall), and how critical certain elevations were, Barr identified 3 three areas where it was (or will be) critical for Barr surveyors to assist the contractor. Those survey visits include (1) the Seminary Pond Outlet Structure (complete), (2) East Outfall Flared End Section placement (complete), and (3) draintile placement (not complete). Surveying tasks have cost $3,500 thus far and with the remaining survey, we estimate that the total surveying costs will be $5,240, as detailed in the attached table.

Task 2: Longer than Anticipated Construction Amendment No. 4 assumed an 8-week period of active construction. This assumption was informed by a site visit in the Spring 2020 with a potential bidder and their resulting opinion of how long the construction would last. In the bidding documents, we provided the contractor 12 weeks of construction, to provide a buffer in case adverse weather conditions were encountered (which would allow for the estimated 8 weeks of active construction as originally estimated). We now estimate that the total length of construction will be 14 weeks (or 75% longer than assumed). This estimate does not include final restoration in the Spring 2021, which is separately budgeted. The reasons for the additional construction time include:

Barr Engineering Co. 4300 MarketPointe Drive, Suite 200, Minneapolis, MN 55435 952.832.2600 www.barr.com

Ms. Anna Eleria December 10, 2020 Page 2

Contractor only using one crew: Given there are 4 project sites, it was possible that the contractor would use more than one crew on the project, thus expediting the construction period. The contractor (to date) has used only one crew. b. Weather conditions: Some early cold and wet weather (including snow on soft ground) caused about a weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s worth of delay and slowed the contractor down. In spite of the slowdown, Barr still needed to visit the site often to observe what construction progress did occur, and there were still construction meetings and administration time incurred. c. Delay in receiving easement for east outfall. The contractor was not able to start working on the east outfall for the first 7 weeks of construction, which further delayed the completion of the project. At the same weekly level of effort as previously estimated in Amendment No. 4 (and how the work has been tracking so far), we estimate that the additional onsite and construction administration costs associated with a 6-week increase (75%) in construction are $19,980.

Estimated Cost All work covered by this scope of work will be charged on a time and expenses basis and invoiced approximately every month. We will not exceed the total budget listed below without written authorization from you. We estimate the additional scope at $25,220, bringing the total contract amount to $250,482. Please contact me (612.710.8140, ncampeau@barr.com) if you have any questions about the scope of work or budget. Thank you for this opportunity. Sincerely,

Nathan Campeau, PE Vice President

The Board also reviewed the preliminary 2021 Work Plan along with the budget and levy at Board workshops on June 3rd and July 8th as well as at Board Meetings on June 17th and July 22nd, 2020. The Citizen Advisory Committee reviewed and recommended approval on the proposed 2021 budget and levy at their August 12th meeting. A duly noticed Public Hearing was held on August 19th to collect public comment on the proposed 2021 budget and levy. The District did not receive any comments as of August 27th. The Board of Managers adopted a Preliminary 2021 Budget and Levy Certification on September 2, 2020. Issues I am recommending that the Board adopt the final budget and levy as presented. Staff is recommending the final budget of $799,100 for Administration, $3,626,434 for Programs, $942,786 for Projects for a total Operations Budget of $5,368,320 and $4,035,744 for Capital Improvement Projects. This results in a total Final 2021 Budget of $9,404,064. This is a decrease of $2,388,419 from the adopted budget for 2020 but a 3.8% increase from the preliminary 2021 budget. Staff will review these minor changes with the Board at the meeting. The proposed 2021 tax levy is $8,277,699. This includes $7,223,245 for the operations and capital improvement levy and $1,054,454 for debt. This levy is the same as 2020. Requested Action Adopt the Resolution approving the Final 2021 Budget and Levy and direct Board Treasurer and Administrator to certify the 2021 Property Tax Levy with Ramsey County. enc:
