Pavement connected to storm drains connected to lakes and ponds transports stormwater that contains pollutants such as fertilizers, pesticides, oils, and salts into water bodies. • The City of Eagan was one of the first cities in Minnesota to institute a water quality management program in 1990 to address State concerns about storm water reaching the Minnesota River. • In a 1991 community -wide survey, more than 60% of residents expressed concerns about algae growth overtaking lakes and ponds in Eagan. • 3 out of 4 residents surveyed wanted more information about what they could do to preserve water quality. • Effective January 1, 2004, State law preempts local regulation of application and use of fertilizers. • Local regulation is allowed of how fertilizer may be sold or displayed. Eagan requires non -phosphorus fertilizer be offered and signage indicating consumers have a choice. CITY LAKE WATER QUALITY, STORMWATER AND OTHER GOALS ➢ In 1990, the City of Eagan established management criteria for Class I water bodies having to do with the Direct Contact Recreation (or swimming potential) of these lakes. There are 7 Class I guided lakes in Eagan, only one of which is currently meeting phosphorus level goals. Other goals include: ➢ Reducing levels of phosphorus and other pollutants harmful to water bodies; 7 Fish Lake Executive Summary February 10, 2004 ➢ Specific to Fish Lake, lowering total phosphorus entering the lake to 250-315 pounds a year. Currently, storm water delivers about 540 pounds of phosphorus a year to Fish Lake; ➢ Handling storm runoff to avoid flooding of 2002; ➢ Complying with all state and federal water quality mandates; ➢ Ensuring continued public access to and enjoyment of major Eagan water bodies. HISTORY OF FISH LAKE PROJECT • The estimated parts -per -billion of phosphorus in Fish Lake jumped some 5 times from 1970 to 1980 and though it receded somewhat in the mid-1990s, the phosphorus level did not drop significantly until the alum dosing experiment from 1998 to 2000. • In 1995, 10 phosphorus management strategies received final consideration by the City and 6 were actually implemented, concentrating on reducing the external sources of phosphorus entering Fish Lake. (Internal sources of phosphorus were only 17% of the problem). • To date, implemented solutions include: 1) priority street sweeping, 2) in-line alum treatment of stormwater inflow, 3) lawn chemical regulations, 4) removing lake weeds, 5) public education, and 6) long-term monitoring. • The Fish Lake alum dosing experiment was discontinued in 2001 with the City having learned that the phosphorus goal (40-50% reduction) is realistic and achievable. • Since 2001, the total phosphorus level has nearly returned to pre-treatment levels, making the lake more like a Class III than a Class I water body. • Currently, reduction of the phosphorus load has dropped to 21%, according to 2003 data. ISSUES WITH ALUM DOSING • When alum sludge is exposed to the air, such as in dry conditions, it can create an odor. • Alum dosing in 1998-2000 created about 2,600 cubic yards of wet sludge in JP -47, which will cost nearly $200K to remove by the end of Spring, 2004. If a new settling basin is constructed, 6,500 to 8,100 cubic yards of sludge could accumulate before removal every 4 to 6 years. • Impact to neighbors' land, particularly if new settling basin is constructed. • Perception that adding a chemical to treat a lake is not environmentally sound. ALTERNATIVES see matrix) • Construct Rain Water Gardens, which retain and filter storm water runoff before it gets into lakes. • Disconnect Fish Lake from the main storm sewer system by creating a bypass. • Treat with a different chemical agent. • Rain barrel collections. • Greater educational efforts. • Try several strategies in combination. • NOTE: Local and national experts (listed below in the summary) were recently contacted about options Eagan is considering and others it should be considering. In general, they recognized the urban environmental challenge the City faces, and acknowledged alum dosing as an effective short-term solution. They offered a handful of other long-term Fish Lake Executive Summary February 10, 2004 strategies including using more porous pavement materials that allow water to move through to the ground. Those are listed and defined on the options and cost matrix. • Do nothing and downgrade classification from Class I to Class II or Class III. ANALYSIS OF ALTERNATIVES see matrix and top options pagLsl Based on assumptions of the Madison, Wisconsin scientific modeling, it would take approximately 10,000 rain water gardens, covering a total of 45 acres and costing about $30 million, to achieve desired City goals on Fish Lake. Construction cost estimates are based on actual unit costs for the much smaller Burnsville pilot project. ❖ Rainwater gardens and greater public educational efforts can be part of the mix of solutions, along with street sweeping, but it is unreasonable to expect—in the short term—that members of the public will ever be 100% compliant with the ban of lawn phosphorus application while phosphorus fertilizer can legally be sold on the market. Furthermore, scientific modeling suggests that 100% compliance alone (without a mix of alternatives) would not meet the total phosphorus reduction goals. ❖ Until different technology comes along, in the short-term, most experts agree that no solution or mix of solutions will achieve Eagan's phosphorus reduction goals unless the solution includes alum dosing. Indeed, alum dosing, combined with street sweeping are the only options which meet the reduction goals, have the lowest cost per pound of phosphorus removed and have the lowest costs over 20 years. ❖ This does not mean, however, that Eagan couldn't divide its approach into short-term solutions to preserve the lake quality while developing a comprehensive study and community dialogue to determine what the next generation of storm water management practices should be. ❖ Doing nothing will result in more algae plumes of a bluish/greenish nature, less water clarity, more plant growth, more down stream problems, and possible algae toxicity. Though rare, fish kills and animal deaths have been associated with such toxicity. OPTIONS AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC WORKS COMMITTEE AND THE CITY COUNCIL • Continue targeted street sweeping efforts. • Authorize a more tightly calibrated short-term alum dosing program for the next _ years [Council to decide number of years] to preserve and enhance water quality on Fish Lake while simultaneously engaging in a comprehensive study of current and emerging storm water management solutions, engaging in public dialogue and feedback to a long-range plan for Eagan lakes, and developing enhanced educational efforts to inform the public of the harmful effects of excessive phosphorus in Eagan lakes and ponds. • Come back to the City Council with the results of the Burnsville pilot project studying rainwater garden filtration and suggest appropriate ways these and other water collection strategies might be used to preserve and protect water quality in Eagan and what the grant opportunities might be to pursue such strategies. • Ask the Minnesota legislature to ban the sale of fertilizer containing phosphorus statewide. • Ask the League of Minnesota Cities in concert with other organizations to encourage the lawn care industry to develop more environmentally sensitive products 4 Fish Lake Executive Summary February 10, 2004 • Combinations of the above -listed alternatives and other strategies the Committee wishes to consider. COSTS • The most cost-effective solutions appear to be expanding existing ponds, street sweeping, and alum dosing, or some combination thereof. • Rainwater gardens can be part of the solution, but in and of themselves do not meet reduction goals or affordability goals. • None of the options with the lowest total costs will meet the phosphorus reduction goals, so any solution may be expensive. • See Top Options page and Options and Costs Matrix page. SOURCE OF FUNDING • Funds from the Water Quality Cash Dedication Account would cover the onetime construction costs of an expanded basin and sludge removal costs. Note: Land acquisition costs are not included in current estimates for a new settling basin. Operational costs to monitor Fish Lake and to purchase alum are covered by the existing water quality program budget through the Storm Water Utility Fee. Any long-term study should take into account new federal requirements associated with the Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plans and whether current storm water utility fees are sufficient to keep pace with those requirements. SUMMARY Data and analyses to which this executive summary refers come from more than 350 hours of scientific research by City professional staff as well as from inquiries with other experts in the field. Water Resources staff has consulted with the following local and national experts: 1) Cliff Aichinger, Ramsey -Washington Metro Watershed District, Maplewood, MN (operator of Tanner's Lake alum dosing project); 2) Roger Bannerman, Wisconsin DNR, Madison, WI (regional expert in watershed modeling studies); 3) Joe Berns, Barr Engineering, Edina, MN (Eagan's engineering consultant and local expert in inactivation of phosphorus by alum); 4) Dr. Robert Carlson, Kent State University, Kent, OH (developer of well-known Trophic State Index the City uses and nationally recognized expert in lake ecology); 5) Steve McComas, Blue Water Science, St. Paul, MN (regionally recognized expert in lake management); 6) Jay Riggs, Dakota County Soil and Water Conservation District, Farmington, MN (local expert in low -impact development and best management practices); 7) Tom Schueler, Center for Watershed Protection, Ellicot City, MD (nationally recognized expert in watershed management); and 8) Dr. Ken Wagner, ENSR International, Willington, CT (nationally recognized lake management specialist). As with any research effort, outcomes depend on the assumptions used, which are far too many to enumerate. Every effort has been made to tie conclusions to known costs, historical data, and current modeling capabilities. a.� p ^ l-- dt Q\ 00 C> N M 00 +=+� 00 N�MO� Nb��?N O 6 69 b9 69 69 bR3 69 "C3 ^ 00 V') O 00 N W') O D1 Fil — OI l— 01 O �o O M O O O O O O O O O O O O O O 00 ^ O H O W) kn WCNl b M � m 06 �6e 609- tn � � � 4U9 bH 69 b V> c+3 (a f`3 O 0000 O 69 O O 69 b9 O Ff3 GMI N l N Q\ O 'Al *, 69 69 b9 O O O 64 6R +-' 0000 O O O OO N 0000 O O O 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 O O O p b9 0 0 0 0 O cn Otr) r- O r— r - C) M 69 64 E,c} bA En 00 S� 3 A" �w ob cd 3 � VD o �7 0 O wx � O Qwrxazv5�z� In c"I Q1 V> c+3 (a f`3 'Al *, O O O O O � O cr, � N e 3 rev' r� C> O bos rw� v) 0, o cOV" N TOP OPTIONS TO REMOVE THE MOST PHOSPHORUS AND MEET REDUCTION GOALS A-ccor-ding-to-Madison,-KLScientific Modeling 1.

Stats. Ch. 18C, "Fertilizer, Soil Amendment, and Plant Amendment Law") PE-EM-P-T-1ON-0-F—L- OCA-L�,AWw Effective April 20, 2002: Local units of government (LUGS) may not adopt or enforce ordinances regulating the sale; handling, or use of phosphorus fertilizers for agricultural use. Effective January 1, 2004: LUGS may not adopt or enforce ordinances, other than those provided for in law, regulating the sale, handling, or use of phosphorus fertilizers on lawns. This nreemnts City Code Sec. 6.48, the licensing of commercial turf fertilizer applicators. However, the law allows City Code Sec. 6.5 1, which regulates commercial sale or display of any lawn fertilizer, to stay in effect after January 1, 2004 because it was adopted by the August 1, 2002 deadline. FERTILIZER APPLICATION TO IMPERVIOUS SURFACES Effective August 1, 2002: It is prohibited to spill or spread fertilizer on impervious surfaces. Such spills must be cleaned up immediately. This applies to all fertilizers, whether or not they contain phosphorus. PHOSPHORUS LAWN FERTILIZER USERESTRICTIONS Effective January 1, 2004: In the 7 -county Twin Cities metropolitan area, lawn fertilizer is restricted to 0% phosphate content (3% phosphate content in other areas of the state) unless it is for a new lawn. If a soil test shows a need for phosphorus, lawn fertilizers with higher phosphate content can be used. [Note: The phosphorus content of fertilizer is measured as phosphate (P205).] Golf course employees that have been trained in a program approved by the MN Department of Agriculture (MDA) can use phosphorus fertilizer according to their professional judgment. When applied, phosphorus lawn fertilizer needs to follow rates recommended by the University of Minnesota and approved by the MDA. RESEARCH EVALUATION Evaluation of research needs to be done by the MDA in cooperation with the University of Minnesota and in consultation with fertilizer industry, lakes groups, and others. A report on the effectiveness of the phosphorus law is due to the legislature by January 15, 2007. ENFORCEMENT Restrictions and prohibitions in this law may be enforced by local units of government under their existing authority. Violations are a petty misdemeanor. THE BOTTOM LINE—REGULATORY AUTHORITY THE CITY NOW HAS • Regulation of commercial sale or display of any lawn fertilizer (local code) Prohibition to spill or spread fertilizer on impervious surfaces (state law) • 0% phosphate restriction in lawn fertilizer (state law) Enforcement authority of restrictions and prohibitions of state phosphorus lawn fertilizer law r, JP -47 SLUDGE REMOVAL UPDATE Contract Awarded: 2/3/04 Cost: $197,600 Contractor: Veit & Company, Rogers, MN Contract Signing: Pre -Construction Meeting: Notice to Neighbors: Work Begins: Construction Hours Anticipated Completion Date: Week of February 9, 2004 Same Same As early as week of February 16 7:00 a.m. -10 p.m., M -Sat., Late March, final site clean-up by June 1 Information_ Regarding a Potential Basin for Alum Storage General design elements of a new storage basin provide for: 1) more than an adequate time for alum to settle and, 2) plenty of volume for the sediment to be contained during normal storm events. There is no designed bypass of extreme storm events, however, the Hurley lift station capacity limits the maximum flow rate. The basin will have a minimum storm water detention time of 12 hours during normal events. This is about 50% longer than in a natural JP -47, before alum sludge accumulation. It is about 200% longer than detention times typically used in water treatment plants. Currently, JP -47 has only about a 2 -hour detention time. Ultimate sludge storage is about twice that currently in JP -47. Responses to Councilmember Maguire's 1/27/04 e-mail. 1. Brief summary of D/F study (1994) and implementation report (2002): • 20 alternatives were evaluated with respect to their potential to affect goals for Fish Lake, mostly for reducing the phosphorus loading to the lake. • 8 alternatives were selected for implementation, also included were public education and long-term monitoring. • $253,000 Clean Water Partnership Project in 1995-2000 implemented 5 of the 8 selected alternatives. • 3 remaining selected alternatives to be implemented pending outcome of alum injection system alternative. 2. Speculative nature of cause -effect regarding strategies and outcomes • Very important to be aware of the continual speculative nature of any future strategies and outcomes, based on best scientific evidence at a given time. 3. Recent legislation and rainwater gardens not part of D/F study • "Rainwater Gardens" is a relatively new moniker for "old-fashioned" ditches and swales. But considering such perspectives for watershed management were not part of the current thinking in 1994. Recent state legislation has provisions similar to elements that would have been part of ideal local regulations that were not promulgated by the City previously. 4. Wants matrix of executive summary of strategies considered, in terms of expected contribution to solution, cost, cost efficiency, social acceptability, rationale for adoption/elimination. Many alternatives considered do not have specifically quantified "contributions to solutions" and therefore "cost efficiencies" because they are comprehensive in nature (i.e., good City-wide public policy). A table of the strategies providing estimated water quality benefits was provided previously in the first committee packet. No information on social acceptability evaluations is available. Alternatives were selected for implementation because they were deemed to have the best chance of reducing phosphorus loads to Fish Lake. 5. Matrix of implementation plan including whether or not implemented, success, effect, future prospects.

Building blocks idea: trading strategies, supplementing strategies, additional strategies, modifying scale of strategies. • This is the essence of the general modeling effort which City staff has already researched and conducted. Numerous iterations of strategies would be a more detailed modeling effort, the breadth and depth of which has not been initiated. PUBLIC WORKS COMMITTEE MEETING NOTES January 27, 2004 4:30 p.m. Eagan Room, Eagan Municipal Center Committee members present: Councilmember Maguire and Councilmember Fields Staff members present: City Administrator Hedges, Assistant to the City Administrator Lord, Director of Parks & Recreation Vraa, Water Resources Coordinator Macbeth, Communications Director Garrison, and Water Resources Technician Storland Meetin Notes Committee member Maguire opened the meeting, acknowledged the members of the public in attendance, and noted that while the meeting is a public meeting, there is no scheduled time for public comment. City Administrator Hedges summarized the outline for the meeting, which included: 1) Past research and the basis for meeting Fish Lake water quality goals via alum dosing; 2) Additional information on alternatives to meeting Fish Lake water quality goals by alum dosing; 3) Estimated cost of alum dosing; and 4) Projected timeline of proposed alum project. Water Resources Coordinator Macbeth provided a presentation to the Committee on the four points of the meeting. While discussing the various alternatives to alum dosing, Macbeth commented on the Madison, Wisconsin rain water garden project. Macbeth added that if the water quality goals for the reduction of phosphorous were attempted via rain gardens, it would require close to 10,000 rain gardens to be installed in order to meet the alum goals for the Fish Lake Watershed. The Committee members thanked Water Resources Coordinator Macbeth for his very valuable presentation. The Committee recommended that the information presented at today's meeting be prepared in written format for the City Council's review. The Committee asked that information regarding the rain gardens and the number of rain gardens that would be required also be included with the information to be presented to the City Council. The Committee discussed the recently enacted State legislation regarding the use of phosphorous fertilizers. Mr. Macbeth noted that the City can no longer regulate commercial application due to the legislation. Furthermore, the City can regulate use, but not the sale of fertilizer containing phosphorus. The Committee requested a one-page clarification of the new legislation to be presented to the City Council. The Committee requested that Communications Director Garrison work with Water Resources Coordinator Macbeth to prepare information regarding the nine scenarios presented by Mr. Macbeth at the Committee meeting. The Committee also inquired as to whether there are any other alternatives that the City did not consider in 1994 or presently that the Committee could review. The Committee requested that Jay Riggs of Dakota County be at the next committee meeting to offer his suggestions on alternatives to alum dosing. p,;:: Public Works Committee Meeting January 27, 2004 Page 2 The Committee discussed the requirements to meet the Class I water body designation. Water Resources Coordinator Macbeth noted that there are seven Class I lakes in the City of Eagan, with Heine Pond being the only one currently in compliance with phosphorous goals. Parks & Recreation Director Vraa highlighted alternatives methods to alum currently being utilized throughout the City. The Committee directed the following items be brought back to the next Public Works Committee prior to taking the issue back to the City Council as a whole: 1) Provide a written agenda for the next meeting (provide ahead of time) 2) Provide written descriptions of the nine scenarios presented at today's meeting (in coordination with Communications Director Garrison) 3) A one-page clarification on the legislation passed in 2002 regarding phosphorous fertilizer, and what regulatory authority the City now has 4) Staff is to contact Jay Riggs of Dakota County in order that he can be present at the next meeting to suggest additional alternatives to alum 5) A brief description of the realities of the effect of phosphorous on water quality and the purpose of alum (being mindful that the Committee is looking for basic descriptions) 6) Update on JP -47's sludge removal 7) Information regarding the potential basin that would be needed for alum sediment storage—how well will the basin contain the sediment and the chemical that is injected (alum dosing)? Will there be run-off into JP -47 or Fish Lake? 8) Provide cost estimates of alum dosing compared to other alternatives (a side-by-side comparison) 9) A breakdown of the 1994 study (using a few matrixes) 10) Provide a response to Councilmember's Maguire January 27 e-mail in advance of the next PW Committee meeting. The Committee set the next Public Works Committee meeting for February 10 at 4:00 p.m.
