February 2006 iii STATEMENT OF ISSUE Based on the information in the record, which is comprised of the EA/Draft 4(f) Evaluation, written and verbal comment received, responses to comments, and other supporting documents, the Minnesota Department of Transportation (Mn/DOT), as the Responsible Governmental Unit (RGU) makes the following Findings of Fact and Conclusions. FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS 1.0 ADMINISTRATIVE BACKGROUND An Environmental Assessment (EA)/Draft 4(f) Evaluation has been prepared under 23 CFR 771.129 and 23 CFR 771.130 by Mn/DOT, the Metropolitan Council and the Northstar Corridor Development Authority (NCDA) on behalf of the United States Department of Transportation, Federal Transit Administration (FTA) to update information found in the Northstar Corridor Draft and Final Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS and FEIS), dated October 2000 and March 2002, respectively, and the Record of Decision (ROD) dated December 2002. The EA/Draft 4(f) was developed to assess the impacts of changes to the project and other circumstances in order to determine if a Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (SEIS) for the project is needed. The FTA has the primary responsibility for the Northstar Corridor project. Mn/DOT is the project sponsor and federal grant applicant for the Northstar Corridor Rail project and works in partnership with the NCDA and the Metropolitan Council for the construction and operation of the service. The EA/Draft 4(f) was filed with the Minnesota Environmental Quality Board (EQB) on December 22, 2005 and circulated for review and comments to the state Environmental Assessment Worksheet (EAW) distribution list (see Appendix for EA/Draft 4(f) Distribution List) and other interested stakeholders within the Northstar Corridor. A “Notice of Availability” was published in the Minnesota EQB Monitor on January 2 and January 16, 2006 (correction regarding the address of the Coon Rapids public meeting). Legal notices were run in the following papers in the corridor: Becker Citizen Big Lake West Sherburne Tribune Columbia Heights Focus (Columbia Heights, Fridley) Anoka County Union (Coon Rapids) Coon Rapids Herald Elk River Star News Minneapolis Finance & Commerce Minneapolis Star Tribune A notice of availability press release was also submitted to numerous media outlets throughout the corridor (see Appendix for the Press Release Distribution list). These notices provided a brief description of the proposed changes to the project, information on where copies of the EA/Draft 4(f) Evaluation were available, dates and locations of the three public informational meetings/hearings and an invitation to the public to provide comments on the revised preferred alternative evaluated in the EA/Draft 4(f) Evaluation. In addition, a postcard mailing announcing NORTHSTAR CORRIDOR RAIL PROJECT FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS/FINAL 4(F) STATEMENT February 2006 1 the three public informational meetings/hearings was sent to approximately 219,000 residents and businesses within the Northstar Corridor. The EA/Draft 4(f) Evaluation was made available for public review at the following locations: Minneapolis Northeast Library Minneapolis Technology and Science Library Columbia Heights Library Crooked Lake Branch Library Northtown Central Library Rum River Branch Library Elk River Public Library Great River Regional Library – Big Lake and St. Cloud State of Minnesota Legislative Reference Library To afford an opportunity for all interested parties, agencies, and groups to provide comments on the proposed project, Mn/DOT and its local partnering agencies, the NCDA and Met Council, hosted three open house/public hearings: January 25, 2006 in Coon Rapids; January 26, 2006 in Minneapolis; and January 30, 2006 in Big Lake, Minnesota. Each of the meetings included an informal open house period, followed by a presentation and time for official public comments. The presentation and public comments were transcribed (see appendix for each of the public hearing transcripts). Attendance, based on persons who signed in at each meeting, was as follows: Coon Rapids (January 25, 2006): 195 attendees Minneapolis (January 26, 2006): 55 attendees Big Lake (January 30, 2006): 138 attendees The presentation was the same at each of the meetings, and addressed the following areas: Purpose of the Public Hearing Project History Alternative Evaluated

The legislature appropriates the dollars from the Legacy Arts and Culture Fund to the Minnesota State Arts Board, Regional Arts Councils, Minnesota Historical Society and other entities to provide access to the arts and culture for all Minnesotans. “Creative Minnesota’s new 2019 report is about Minnesota’s arts and creative sector. It includes stateWide, regional and local looks at nonprofit arts and culture organizations, their audiences, artists and creative Workers. This year it also looks at the availability of arts education in Minnesota schools,” said SMith. “We also include the results of fifteen local studies that show substantial economic iMpact from the nonprofit arts and culture sector in every corner of the state, including $4.9 million in the City of Eagan, $2.4 million in the City of Hastings, 11 million in the City of Hopkins, $4 million in the Maple Grove Area, $541 million in the City of Minneapolis, and $1.5 million in the City St.

    A Newsletter for the faculty and staff of the CSB/SJU undergraduate program December 2000 Father John Klassen OSB, Elected 10th Abbot of Saint John’s Abbey Father John Klassen OSB, CSB/SJU asso- ciate professor of chemistry, was elected the 10th abbot of Saint John’s Abbey on the morning of Nov. 24. He succeeds Abbot Timothy Kelly OSB, who has completed his eight-year term of office. Abbot John will lead the community of 196 Benedictine monks who sponsor and work at Saint John’s University, St. John’s Preparatory School, and The Liturgical Press as well as in parishes, hospitals and retire- ment centers mainly in Minnesota, and in small monastic communities in Nassau, Bahamas, and Fujimi, Japan. He has the option of serving as abbot for 24 years, until his 75th birthday. Abbot John, 51, is the second oldest of the six sons and two daughters of Paul (deceased) and Catherine (Wiechmann) Klassen. He grew up on his family’s dairy farm near the Stearns County town of Elrosa, just 40 miles west of Collegeville. He is the first of the abbey’s 10 abbots to be born in this immediate area. He attended high school, college and seminary on the Collegeville cam- pus. He became a Benedictine monk of Saint John’s Abbey in 1972 and was ordained to the priesthood in 1977. The newly-elected abbot received a doc- torate in bio-organic chemistry from The Catholic University of America in Washing- ton, D.C., in 1985. He taught chemistry at St. John’s Prep School (1972-77) and Saint John’s University (1983-2000), and was the director of the university’s senior seminar program (1986-88), and of the Peace Studies Program Abbot John Klassen also serves as SJU chancellor.

  • Minnesota Emergency Alert System Statewide Plan 2018
    Minnesota Emergency Alert System Statewide Plan 2018 MINNESOTA EAS STATEWIDE PLAN Revision 10 Basic Plan 01/31/2019 I. REASON FOR PLAN The State of Minnesota is subject to major emergencies and disasters, natural, technological and criminal, which can pose a significant threat to the health and safety of the public. The ability to provide citizens with timely emergency information is a priority of emergency managers statewide. The Emergency Alert System (EAS) was developed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to provide emergency information to the public via television, radio, cable systems and wire line providers. The Integrated Public Alert and Warning System, (IPAWS) was created by FEMA to aid in the distribution of emergency messaging to the public via the internet and mobile devices. It is intended that the EAS combined with IPAWS be capable of alerting the general public reliably and effectively. This plan was written to explain who can originate EAS alerts and how and under what circumstances these alerts are distributed via the EAS and IPAWS. II. PURPOSE AND OBJECTIVES OF PLAN A. Purpose When emergencies and disasters occur, rapid and effective dissemination of essential information can significantly help to reduce loss of life and property. The EAS and IPAWS were designed to provide this type of information. However; these systems will only work through a coordinated effort. The purpose of this plan is to establish a standardized, integrated EAS & IPAWS communications protocol capable of facilitating the rapid dissemination of emergency information to the public. B. Objectives 1. Describe the EAS administrative structure within Minnesota. (See Section V) 2.
