The Environmental Review Program rules (at Minnesota Rules, part 4410.15008.) require that a press release containing notice of the EAW availability be provided to at least one newspaper of general circulation within the area and that copies of the EAW be distributed to all points on the EQB distribution list.

The 30 -day comment period will begin on that day and will expire on July 1, 1987. Pursuant to Minnesota Rules, part 4410.3100, subpart 1, no final governmental decision to grant a permit or other approval required to commence the project shall be made until a negative declaration or EIS adequacy determination has been made.

MHS Referral File Number: EE -425 Thank you for the opportunity to review and comment on the above project. It has been reviewed pursuant to responsibilities given the State Historic Preservation Officer by the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 and the Procedures of the National Advisory Council of Historic Preservation (36CFR800). This review reveals the location of no known sites of historic, architectural, cultural, archaeological, or engineering significance within the area of the proposed project. There are no sites in the project area which are on the National Register or eligible for inclusion on the National Register, and therefore, none which may be affected by your proposal. Again, thank you for your participation in this important effort to preserve Minnesota's heritage. Sincerely, Dennis A.

This consideration was based on the following statement from the Consent List which was approved by the Council. This EAW proposes to build 209 single-family homes on 90 acres in the south- west corner of the city. Development will occur in two phases with the first phase served by the Rosemount Waste Water Treatment Plant. The second phase development will occur after the Empire plant is expanded sometime in late 1989. The city is reminded that it is responsible for providing sewer service through Apple Valley to the MWCC-owned interceptor at the Apple Valley -Lakeville border. In an agreement with Apple Valley, the city of Rosemount is limited to sewering 110 acres at a density of three units per acre through this interceptor. Part of the proposed site is located outside the city's urban service area and will require a comprehensive plan amendment to include it within the city's MUSA. Assuming the approval of a plan amendment adding the area outside the urban service area, the project is in conformity with metropolitan system plans, consistent with other chapters of the Metropolitan Development Guide and compatible with the plans of adjacent communities. With the exception of not noting that a plan amendment is required, the EAW is accurate and complete insofar as regional policies and plans are concerned and an EIS is not necessary. The Council approved the above statement as its comments on the EAW. Sincerely, 6 5�� X-4- — Steve Keefe Chair SK: 11 cc: Greg Downing, Environmental Review Coordinator, Environ. Rev.

Rosemount, MN 55068 RE: Close of EAW Review Period for Wensmann Additions Dear Mr. Johnson: The 30 -day review and comment period for this EAW ended on July 1, 1987. A decision on the need for an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is to be made within 15 working days of the expiration of the comment period unless the decision will be made by a body which meets only periodically, in which case the decision is to be made at the first meeting 10 or more days after the expiration date and in no case more than 30 calendar days afterwards. In making the EIS decision please note the following requirements (given at Minnesota Rules, part 4410.1700, page 16 of the rules): 1. You must maintain a written record of some sort, including specific findings of fact, which supports your decision. The record must reflect the findings about the project with respect to the criteria of subpart 7 and should consider the information in the EAW itself and any timely comments reseived. 2. A notice of the decision is to be sent within five working days to the EQB, all persons on the EAW distribution list, all persons who commented, and anyone who makes a request (see B.4.). The EQB will publish notice of your decision in the EQB Monitor. 3. If your decision is to prepare an EIS, your notice must also include your proposed scope of the EIS and the date, time and place of the scoping meeting. Please call me before scheduling a scoping meeting to assure that the meeting will fall between 10 working days and 20 calendar days after publication of the notice in the EQB Monitor. The scoping meeting must also be noticed by a press release. Sincerely, Gregg M.

Johnson Director of Community Development City of Rosemount 2875 14th Street West Rosemount, Minnesota 55068 Dear Mr. Johnson: Re: Wensmann Addition The environmental assessment worksheet (EAW) on the referenced project has been reviewed by staff of the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency. Based on the information, contained in the EAW, it appears that the potential for adverse environmental effects from the project has been adequately identified and will be addressed by appropriate mitigative action. Therefore, the preparation of an environmental impact statement does not appear warranted. The staff is concerned that noise due to traffic on Chippendale Avenue located along the eastern boundary of the site and noise due to the railroad running to the east of the site may exceed state noise standards (a daytime L o level of 65 dBA and a nighttime Llo level of 55 dBA for iand use category NAC -1) at the proposed single family residences. The staff recommends that noise impacts be further evaluated to determine if the state noise standards will be exceeded at the closest proposed residences. The total average daily traffic (ADT) derived from existing traffic and traffic from the proposed development should be considered in the evaluation of roadway traffic noise. Also, noise from both car and truck traffic should be considered. Please contact Dave Kelso, at 296-7372, to determine the method to be used for the assessment of railway noise. If the state noise standards are to be exceeded due to traffic on the roadways or the railway, the City should ensure that the proposer implements noise control measures to come into compliance with the state standards. Possible noise control measures include 1) requiring the construction of noise barriers, e.g., earth berms, Phone: 520 Lafayette Road North, St. Paul, Minnesota 55155 Regional Offices • Duluth/Brainerd/Detroit Lakes/Marshall/Rochester Equal Opportunity Employer Mr. Dean R. Johnson Page Two wood or concrete walls, 2) adjusting the distance of the residences from the roadways or the railway, and/or 3) the planting of vegetation. This last option, however, is not a very effective noise control measure compared to options 1 or 2. Thank you for the opportunity to review the EAW. If you have any questions, please contact Craig N. Affeldt, at 296-7796, for further information. Sincerely, C1 ord T.
