  • DATE: March 20, 2018 TO: Board of Water and Soil Resources
    DATE: March 20, 2018 TO: Board of Water and Soil Resources’ Members, Advisors, and Staff FROM: John Jaschke, Executive Director SUBJECT: BWSR Board Meeting Notice – March 28, 2018 The Board of Water and Soil Resources (BWSR) will meet on Wednesday, March 28, 2018, beginning at 9:00 a.m. The meeting will be held in the lower level Board Room, at 520 Lafayette Road, Saint Paul. Parking is available in the lot directly in front of the building (see hooded parking area). The following information pertains to agenda items: COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATIONS Water Management and Strategic Planning Committee One Watershed, One Plan Operating Procedures and Plan Content Requirements – The One Watershed, One Plan Operating Procedures and Plan Content Requirements are the two policy documents that describe program requirements according to Minnesota Statutes §103B.801. These documents, which were based on policies for the pilot program (developed in 2014), were updated in 2016 when the program was formally established. Since that time, BWSR’s Water Planning Program Team has identified a need to improve the organization and clarity of these documents, along with minor changes to policy elements. The team recommends re-formatting both documents with the new State of Minnesota logo and style. For both documents, the majority of non-policy information (background, context, and optional items) have been removed. DECISION Other changes include: • Policy o High level summary of changes (see the last page of each document for more detail) • Operating Procedures o Removed automatic exemption for LGUs with less than 5% of their area in the planning boundary o Added requirements for sharing public comments during the plan review and approval process • Plan Content Requirements o Land and Water Resources Inventory changed to Narrative; added requirement for discussion of watershed context o Fairly extensive wording changes in Plan Administration and Implementation Programs sections resulting in minor changes to policy elements.

  • Kettle River, Minnesota
    Kettle River, Minnesota 1. The region surrounding the river: a. The Kettle River is located in east-central Minnesota. The river has its headwaters in Carlton County and flows generally north-south, passing through Pine County and into the St. Croix River. The basin has a long history of faults and glacial activity. The bedrock formations are of pre-Cambrian metamorphic and volcanic rock. This layer is covered by Cambrian sandstone and unconsolidated glacial till. Outcroppings of sandstone and pre-Cambrian lava are frequent. The area is ragged and rolling with dramatic local relief. The area has gone through a dramatic ecological change since the logging days when the white pine was the dominant vegetation. Today the region has a varied pattern of red pine, spruce, white pine, white birch maple, oak, aspen, and basswood. Major transportation lines in the area include Interstate 35 running north-south through the basin and Minnesota 23 running northeast- southwest through the basin. Minnesota 48 crosses the river east-west just east of Hinckley, Minnesota, and Minnesota Route 65 runs north-south about 25 miles west of the river. Land use in the basin is limited to agriculture and timber production. The Mhmeapolis-St. Paul area to the south supports heavy industry and manufacturing. b. Population within a 50-mile radius was estimated at 150, 700 in 1970. The Duluth, Minnesota/Superior, Wisconsin, metropolitan area lies just outside the 50-mile radius and had an additional 132, 800 persons in 1970. c. Numerous state forests are found in this part of Minnesota. They are Chengwatona State Forest, DAR State Forest, General C.

Established in 1857, Mille Lacs County has a total land area of 572 square miles. Of that land area, approximately 30% is occupied by open water (lakes and rivers). The federal government holds 0.56% in trust for the Mille Lacs Band of Ojibwe, and state-owned lands make up 10.43 % of the land area. The county is home to a large portion of Mille Lacs Lake, as well as the headwaters of the Rum River, which flow through Lakes Ogechie, Shakopee, and Onamia before making its way to the Mississippi River in Anoka County. Mille Lacs County is relatively flat, and is characterized by clay-loam soils which can be saturated for most of the year. Wetland basins (specifically Types 1 and 2) are predominant, as are forested wetlands Types 7 and 8. Forest management, agriculture, and tourism are the main industries in the county, followed by government and health care sectors. Figure 1.1: Mille Lacs County The county has a population of 26,097 (2010). The county seat is located in the City of Milaca, and is situated near the intersection of State Highway 23 and U.S.

State Forest Recreation Areas Minnesota's 56 state forests contain over 3.2 million acres of state owned lands which are administered by the Department of Natural Resources, Division of Forestry. State forest lands are managed to produce timber and other forest crops, provide outdoor recreation, protect watershed, and perpetuate rare and distinctive species of flora and fauna. State forests are multiple use areas that are managed to provide a sustained yield of renewable resources, while maintaining or improving the quality of the forest. Minnesota's state forests provide unlimited opportunities for outdoor recreationists to pursue a variety of outdoor activities. Berry picking, mushroom hunting, wildflower identification, nature photography and hunting are just a few of the unstructured outdoor activities which can be accommodated in state forests. For people who prefer a more structured form of recreation, Minnesota's state forests contain over 50 campgrounds, most located on lakes or canoe routes. State forest campgrounds are of the primitive type designed to furnish only the basic needs of individuals who camp for the enjoyment of the outdoors. Each campsite consists of a cleared area, fireplace and table. In addition, pit toilets, garbage cans and drinking water may be provided.
