cost to get this terrace work done. It will be necessary to
terrace for asthetic reasons and to mvoid a dangerous drop-off

Subject' Bradford Lane
Dear Mr. Kopp'
Enclosed is a copy of a letter from the Minnesota Department
of Transportation rejecting the Cities request to put Bradford
Lane from County Road 125 to Richmond on the MSA System.
The main reason for the refusal was that the streel does not
connect to another MSA or County Road on one end. We do have
enough undesignated milage to provide such a connection, and
the street would probably be approved if another segment
were added to connect Bradford to Tuxedo or Brighton which are
MSA streets.
Very truly yours,

RE: Designation of Bradford Lane in the City of Mound
Dear Mr. Swanson:
We are in receipt of your letter of September 19, in reference to desig-
· hating Bradford Lane as a Municipal State Aid Street.
The request for designation does comply with traffic volumes and could
possibly comply with major traffic interests. However, the request for
designation does not comply by providing an integrated street system
affording a State Aid Street network. It, therefore, is not eligible
for state aid designation.
We are available for any further questions you may have.
Sincerely,
C. E. Weichselbaum

Park Commission Recommendations
Attached is a copy of the Park Commission recommendations--
Items 2, 3 and 7 will require Council action.
Item 2 - The property owner at 4601 Aberdeen built a re-
taining wall on his property line at the commons line. When
the big rain came,the wall ended up in the lake. The pro-
perty owner is requesting aid from the City; especially in
getting the soil out of the Lake. We have asked the Attorney
about this (see letter attached). The homeowner has taken
the railroad ties from the Lake.
The Park Commission recommended City participation only if
there is liability on the part of the City.
The homeowner will be at the September 27 meeting.
Item 3 - Hockey Boards - The Park Commission recommends that
the City donate the hockey boards and nets given the City by
Spring Park to the School District for their use.
Item 7 - The Park Commission recommended that the bleachers
in Three Points Park be removed because of their poor condi-
tion.
See Item 4 - With regard to docks and winter dock ordinance,
the Park Commission tabled their decision on removal recom-
mendations that all docks be removed this winter until the
Council acts on the Winter Storage Ordinance.

of retaining wal~s on private property (with the exception that ~f th~ ~erraln or
structur~ presents e ha~&rd a permit is then r~qu~red).
Brooks erected the retaining wall on his property with no permit, ~t was in excess
of 4 feet. ~uestion arose whether the State Bldg. Code covers reta~ning walls?
Informed ~hat only when doing ~caYstion ~ork on p~b~ic build~ng~ ~s this mandatory°

Ba~ley made a motion seconded by L~rson that, Coa~ss~on recomme~d~ that the
City of Mound do~&te the hockey boards and goa~ nets to School D~s~rtct 277 for
thelr use (these m~terials were received from Spring Park). Reviewing the Use
Plan, Tyrone Perk is classified as a neighborhood park and is not large enough
for the installation of a Hockey Rink, It woutd be too costly, and being a neighbor-
hood park it would not be able to facilitate large attendance for hockey games.
Appx. $3,OOO.OO to Install and $4,1OO.OO,;'ann~elly for maintenance if retained by

Ul~anlmously passed.

Dear Curt:
One of our citizens lost a retaining wall in the big rain a few weeks
ago.
The retaining wall (built without a permit) was built on the lot line
at the Commons line. It was built of railroad ties. When the big rain
came, the railroad ties and a lot of dirt ended up in the Lake. The
homeowner is asking the City's help in rebuilding and, especially in
dredging the dirt from the Lake.
This was on Devon Commons - Lot 7, Block l, Devon.
The Park Commission recommended the City take care of their responsi-
bilities. Our question---what is the City's responsibility?
Is.the City responsible for getting the dirt out of the Lake or is it
the responsibility of the person who built the wall?
The same. question goes on who should replace the vegetation on this
bank?
This will be before the Council one'er 27. The pictures attached
give you an idea of the size of the wall, since the side is still in
place.

Tax Forfeit Land
The City is holding for Park Purposes Lots 14, 15, 16, 17,
21, 22, 23 and a part of Lot 20, Block 26, Wychwood. (The
area shown in yellow on the attached map.)
The owner of Lots 18 and 19 and a small portion of Lot 20
wishes to square off his lot by buying a portion of Lot
20 as shown. The area he wishes to purchase is 45.1 feet
by 14 feet. (See letter attached).
It would appear that this small piece of land is really not
needed. Possibly the Council might want to examine keeping
the low ground along Brighton for parking and returning the
high ground for sale.
This land was divided as it is, so access to the high part
of Lots 15, 16 and 17 could be obtained over Lots 20, 21, 22
and 23.
A drawing on the attached map shows the portion of Lot 20
that is being requested.

Nursing Service
Attached is a copy of a letter from the Suburban Nursing
Service advising that they will incorporate and be in
existence after their statutory authority expires on
December 14, 1977.
It seems logical to rejoin.
Hennepin County has been working toward a joint powers
agreement which, if and when it is organized, will con-
tract with Suburban Public Health Nursing Service.

Keith Meland, Chairperson, Nursing Committee
Due to loss of statutory authority to operate on December 14, 1977, the
Suburban Public Health Nursing Service is in the process of incorporating
as a public non-profit organization. By incorporating, the Suburban Public
Health Nursing Service will ensure continuity of service to the residents of
your community.
In the coming year, it is expected that Community Health Services funding will
provide for in-home nursing care to ill and disabled persons and health promo-
tion, teaching and counseling services to persons of all ages. We have re-
quested United Way support for our home health aide program and partial support
for health consultation to day care centers (health education). To residents
of municipalities with corporate membership in the organization, Suburban
Public Health Nursing Service, Inc. will provide i~nization clinics, child
health clinics and health education i.e. health consultation to day care group
homes and more extensive health promotion, teaching and counseling services.
The draft of our proposed budget for 1978 is enclosed far, our review.
Estimated revenue from municipalities is based on~_~e of 35¢e_~9~-6apita.
Also enclosed are ~o copies of a suggested resolution f~r 1978 membership
in Suburban Public Health Nursing Service, Incorporated.
With the reorganization of Suburban Public Health Nursing Service, there is
urgent need for early response by municipalities relative to membership in
the new corporation. Me~oers of the Nursing Committee and representatives of
the nursing staff would welcome opportunity to meet with you~City Council
to discuss the reorganization and services of Suburban Public Health Nursing
Service.

Combined Assessments
On Wednesday, I talked with the Attorney about Tuesday's
hearing and the Council's report that they were going to
combine the costs.
Curt felt that it would have been better to have one hearing
for all areas with the combined totals advertised.
To have a combined hearing now would require remailing, re-
advertising, etc. The Attorney said, if I am interpreting
him correctly, that there are three choices:
1. Have a complete rehearing.
Go ahead the way we are with individual hearings
and then combine all the projects for taking bids.
After step 2 above is accomplished, the Council
establish the assessment policy of a combined
assessment as is being reported.

As directed by the City Council, we have prepared this Addendum
to the Preliminary Engineering Report on the pending street
improvement projects. This Addendum combines the costs of all
proposed street improvements into one project for assessment
purposes. The estimated assessments herein include the cost of
all storm sewers as part of the street improvement, therefore
no separate assessment for storm sewer is provided.
The total estimated cost of the project is $1,505,880, of
which, $99,160. will be paid by the City or County, leaving
$1,406,720 to be assessed. Based on the formula described in
the Preliminary Engineering Reports the estimated assessments
for the Project are:

$1~001 per unit
Area Assessment

Hennepin County Communities
Art'Lee - OEDP Committee Chairman
Request for Community Input
The City of Minneapolis and Hennepin County are jointly undertaking
the development of an Overall Economic Development Program (OEDP) in
an effort to gain designation by the Economic Development Administration
(EDA) as a Redevelopment Area, Such a designation would allow the
County and all constituent communities to apply for funding through
several EDA programs for activities designed to promote economic develop-
ment and to generate new, permanent jobs, Such activities might involve
upgrading of sewer or water capacity, roadway improvements or other public
activities in support of development or redevelopment of commercial and
industrial areas. Recent actions by the Carter Administration are designed
to encourage and facilitate the coordination of OEDP activities with those
of the Community Development Program, the Small Business Administration,
local capital improvement programs or of HRA's. (See attached overview
of programs),
The OEDP committee was recently informed that the deadline for submission
of the final program document has been revised to 15 November 1977, 45 fewer
days than previously anticipated, While it had been hoped that all Hennepin
County communities might be involved in the development of the program,
present work schedule constraints demand that any such involvement be ini-
tiated by the communities. Although all communities will have the oppor-
tunity to review the final document through the A-95 Review process, this
will be your only opportunity to provide input to ensure that specific local
problems and economic development potentials are reflected in the completed
document. (EDA regulations called for an annual update of the OEDP, conse-
quently future year involvement should be possible).
If your community is interested in possible OEDP activities and funding
assistance please contact either Robert Isaacson (348-4544) or Jim Ford
(348-2852) at your earliest convenience. If so contacted their office will
assist your community in relating local problems and potentials to the
OEDP, defining appropriate program responses, and in coordinating OEDP
activities with HUD, SBA and other programs.

OVERVIEW OF FEDERAL
INESS AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMEOPROGRAHS
Four major agencies of the Federal Government administer programs which
aid, to varying degrees, in the vital process of business and economic
development. These agencies are:
1. Economic Development Administration
2. Small Business Administration
Department of Housing and Urban Development
4. Department of Labor
Of primary concern to the OEDP Committee would naturally be number 1.
The seven programs directly under EDA and therefor an integral part of
the OEDP process are summarized as well as listed below. Programs of
the other agencies are merely listed for reference and to provide a ~ense
of scope to the magnitude of Federal assistance available for economic
development. Many SBA programs and to an apparently increasing degree
those of HUD, have particular relevance because of their potential to
directly augment EDA activities.
1. Economic Development Administration
a. Grants and Loans for Public Works and Development Facilities
(Title I and Section 201)
Grants and loans to improve opportunities for the establishment
or expansion of industrial or con~nercial plant or facilities,
to assist in the creation of additional long-term employment
opportunities or to benefit long-term employment and members of
low-income families. Basic grants are for public facilities
such as water and sewer systems, access roads to industrial
parks or areas, port facilities, public tourism facilities,
vocational schools, flood control projects, and site improvements
for industrial parks.
Loans for Business and Development Companies (Section 202)
Low-interest long-term loans, loan and lease guarantees, loan
and interest subsidies for land acquisition and plant and equip-
ment improvement in redevelopment areas that cannot be financed
through banks or other private lending institutions. Also,
capital loans and loan guarantees are available.
c. Special Economic Development Adjustment Assistance (Title IX)
Provides assistance to state and local areas to meet special
needs arising from actual or threatened severe unemployment
caused by economic 'dislocation, including unemployment caused
by actions or regulations of the federal government, economic
adjustment problems resulting from severe changes in economic
conditions including "long-term economic deterioration."
d. Technical Assistance (Section 301)
Provides assistance to solve problems of economic growth through
administrative and demonstration projects grants, feasibility
studies, management and operational assistance, and other studies.
e. Planning Assistance (Development District Program: Redevelopment'
Area Plans) (Section 302)
Provides up to 80 percent economic development planning grants
to reduce unemployment and increase incomes. Promotes comprehen-
sive planning process which includes analyzing the local economy,
defining developmental goals, determining p¥oject opportunities
and formulating and implementing a development program.
f. Public Works Impact Projects
Promotes construction o~ public facilities to provide immediate
jobs to unemployed and underemployed persons in designated project
areas. EDA designation not required.
g. Redevelopment Area Loan Program (Section 204)
Interest-free loans to the Redevelopment Area for use in making
loans to public or private entities for industrial land assembly,
land banking, acquisition of surplus government property, acquisi-
tion of abandoned properties with redevelopment potential, real
estate development including redevelopment and rehabilitation of
historical buildings for industrial and commercial use, rehabilita-
tion and renovation of usable empty factory buildings for industrial
and commercial use, and other investments which will accelerate
recycling of land and facilities for job creating economic activity.
2. Small Business Administration
Local Development Companies (Section 502)/long-term financing to
small business concerns through state and local development
companies.
Urban Neighborhood Revitalization (Section 502)/special funding
to'local development companies located in urban neighborhoods.
Small Business Loans (Regular Loans - 7(a) Loans). Assist small
businesses in financing their needs. Guaranteed/insured loans

Plaintiff, for its cause of action, alleges the follow-
On July 27, 1977, defendant entered into a contract to
sell to plaintiff real property described as Lots 18, 19, and 20,
Block 10, Arden Addition, and located in the City of Mound,
Hennepin County, Minnesota. A copy of the contract is attached
hereto as "Attachment A", and made a part hereof.
II.
At the time defendant entered ~nto the at%ached contract,
defendant was in possession of the above-described proper~y as a
vendee under a contract for deed.
III.
Although the purchase contract called for defendant to
furnish an up-to-date abstrac% of the property, defendant failed
to do so and plaintiff assumed the responsibility of updating the
abstract. Because one of. the fee owners was ouh of town, and
other minor difficulties made it difficul% to close on Septem-
ber 1, 1977, plaintiff and defendant agreed to close on September 2,
1977.
IV.
At the closing, it was discovered that the deed from
the fee owners only conveyed an undivided one-third interest in
the property and, therefore, defendant was not in a position to
convey clear title to the plaintiff on the day of closing.
During the week of September 6, 1977, a new deed was
executed by the fee owners and on September 7, 1977, plaintiff
contacted the defendant advising defendant that the City would
now accept defendant's deed and was prepared to ~lose.
VI.
On September 12, 1977, defendant contacted the plaintiff
and advised the plaintiff that defendant would not close and would
not convey a deed to the City unless the defendant realized
$10,000 net proceeds from.the sale of the property. On
September 12, 1977, the plaintiff responded in writing (copy
attached as "Attachment B"), advising defendant that the
plaintiff expected the defendant to close. In the same letter
the plaintiff tendered an offer to close immediately. On Septem-.
bet 15, 1977, the plaintiff, after reviewing the defendant's
demands, again made a tender in writing (copy attached as
"Attachment C"), again demanding an immediate closing.
VII.
Ail of the conditions of the purchase agreement have
been performed or have occurred. ~'
VII!.
Plaintiff remains ready and willing to pay to the
defendant the balance of the purchase price upon reCeiving a
deed from the defendant.
WHER~FORE, plaintiff prays for a judgment that defendant
~be required to specifically perform said agreement by executing a
deed and delivering it to plaintiff upon payment of the balance of
the purchase money; for costs and disbursements herein; and for
such other relief as may be jus-t. '

Re: Lots 18, 19 and 20, Block 10, Arden
Dear Mr. Phillippi:
This will confirm our telephone conversation of the afternoon of
September 12, 1977 at approximately 3:45 P.M. Our conversation
was terminated when you hung up the phone and told me that you
were not coming to my office or any place else to close on the
sale of your property. If I unders'band your statements over the
phone correctly, you are now demanding that the City of Mound
pay you the sunl of $10,000 as a net figure regardless of what
you owe against the property.
On July 27, 1977 you and the City Manager of~e City of Mound and
myself entered into a purchase agreement.for the sale of your
property ho the City. That transaction was to be closed on or
before September 1, 1977. If you will note in the next to the
lash paragraph of that contract, it is your responsibility to
furnish the City with a registered property abstract "certified
%o date". On August 8 or 9 I received in the mail a registered
property abstract which you had delivered ho Mr. Kopp. That abstract
was certified to October 1, 1976. I contacted Mr. Kopp and indicated
that I could not examine that because it was too old and was outdated.
He instructed me to obtain a new abstract which I ordered from
Title Insurance Company on August 10, 1977. I asked the title company
ho expedite the preparation of that abstract as much as possible.
A new registered property absbract was prepared and delivered to me
and on August 22, 1977 I wrote a title opinion to Mr. Kopp setting
forth the status of the proper%y and calling attention to the fact
that there were various things that had to be ~one before ~he City
could obtain a clear title. At Mr. Kopp's direction, .! also hook
i~ upon myself to contact the fee owner, Mr. Samuel Segall and his
LF

his partner, Roy A. Schwappach. I also took it upon myself to
contact First Guaranty Corporation and indicate your desire to
expedite this closing. I sent them copies of my title opinion
so that they would know what had to be done prior to the time of
closing. Mr. Segall was out of town at that time but returned
and called me and asked what had to be done. Various deeds were
prepared and certain probate.matters concerning one FranceS L.
Enger were accumuIated and a closing date was set for September 2,
1977. I was out of town on September 2, but Mr. James Larson of
my office met with you and representatives of First Guaranty Cor-
poration in an effort to close.
'It was then discovered that the deed frOm the fee owners, segall
and Schwappach, only conveyed an undivided one-third interest to
First Guaranty Corporation. Therefore, neither First Guaranty nor
you were in a position to deed clear title to the City of Mound.
It was also my understanding that there was some difference of
opinion about real estate taxes between you and your contract vendor,
First Guaranty Corporation, and the fee owners, Segall and Schwappach.
During the week of September 6 I took it upon myself to do additional
legal work in your behalf and contacted Mr. Segall and Mr. Schwappach
and had a new deed prepared which they executed and delivered to
my office. On September 7 I immediately called I4r. Kopp and asked
him to contact you and tell you we were ready to close. I also
suggested to him that the City pay its monies to our trust accoun~
and that our trust account would then disburse %o you, First Guaranty
Corporation and Segall. I did not hear from you until September 12
when you have informed me that you have no intention of closing
unless you get $10,000 net.
I am sorry to say that I have no control over how'much you net be-
cause that depends on how much you owe the fee owner and First
Guaranty. I am enclosing herewith a copy of the check from the
City of Mound to me and I am tendering to you an offer to close on
this property immediately and I am asking that First Guaranty and
Segall attend such a closing so that we can ascertain.¥~ho to pay
the money to so that the City of Mound will have a clear title.

Mound Westonka High School, this award being part of the fiscal

WE REGRET TO INFORM YOU that in its regular meeting of September
12, 1977, the school board by::a vote'of six to one declined to
authorize the chairman and clerk to sign the project agreement,
a prerequisite for receiving the funds. This rejection is not
related to the terms of the agreement, but to assertions that
the project has no bearing on education, that the community is
not interested in handball, and that there must be purposes of
greater priority for the school district's share of the project.
We regret the inconvenience caused your office by our original

Metropolitan Council Chambers
BACKGROUND ~PORT
Purpose: The purpose of the hearing is to receive comments on whether the Metropolitan Council
should consider amending the Waste Management Policy Plan to provide for the interim land
disposal of sludge from the Metropolitan Wastewater Treatment Plant and other issues related
to the proposed National'Pollution Discharge Elimination System {NPDES) permit. After an
evaluation of comments and information provided by the public hearing, the Council may elect
to amend the Waste Management Policy Plan.
Introduction
The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) has proposed an NPDES permit for the Metropolitan
Wastewater Treatment Plant. The proposed permit conditions drafted by the MPCA staff would
require the Metropolitan Waste Control Commission to undertake land disposal of sludge from
the Metro Plant until the construction of the new sludge disposal facilities is completed in 1981.
The disposal of the sludge would require substantial expenditures of capital and operating funds
to meet the permit conditions proposed by the MPCA staff. In response to the draft permit
conditions the Commission has completed a preliminary study and has proposed a land disposal
project. The completiQn of the project would provide for disposal of sufficient quantities pf sludge
to enable the Metro Plant to meet the effluent limitations proposed by the MPCA staff.
Present Permit and Plant Operation
The NPDE$ permit for the Metro Plant expired June 30, 1977. The permit effluent limitations were
45 milligrams per liter for BOD (Biological Oxygen Demand) and TSS (Suspended Solids) for the
period May 1 to November 30 and 65 mg/1 BOD and 60 mg/1 SS for the period December 1 to April 30.
In 1976 the annual average for the plant was 66 mg/1 BOD and 60 mg/1 TSS. The removal efficiency
of the plant was 75 percent for BOD and 82 percent for TS$. During 1977, plant performance has
varied from 65mg/1 BOD and 48mg/1 for TSS.in January to 38 mg/1 BOD and 42 mg/1 TSS in April.
The Metro Plant effluent quality is limited by inadequate sludge processing capacity. The sludge
processing problem will not be solved until new sludge processing facilities have been completed
in 1981.~ The Commission has placed major portions of the sludge projects under construction
and all the sludge projects should be under construction by the end of the year.
Alternatives Under Consideration
1. No Project.,
The effect of "no project" could be one of three.
a) The effluent quality may show a limited improvement as presently planned construction
on liquid treatment processes is completed and put into operation.
b) the concentrations may be similar to effluent quality in 1977.
c) the effluent quality may be less because of increased flow into the plant for treatment.
Effluent BOD and TSS concentrations between now and 1982 under a "do-nothing" alternative have
not been estimated.
2. Metropolitan Pollution q0n~rol Agency Proposed Landfillin~
The MPCA staff has drafted the proposed NPDES permit which would reduce the BOD/TSS effluent
limitations each year (as specified in the permit) beginning with 60/55 BOD/TSS for the period
July 1 to October 31 and 80/80 for November 1 to April 30, 1977-78. In 1982, when the plant
construction would be completed, the effluent limitation will be 25/30. The effluent improve-
ment will require land disposal of sludge. Sludge quantities would increase each year. This
would also require that liquid treatment processes be placed into operation as they are
completed between now and 1981. The' result would be improved treatment and substantial increases
in sludge quantities.
The MPCA staff proposed that the Commission dispose of the excess sludge on an interim basis'
using the Pinebend Landfill in Inver Grove Heights. The landfill operator, Phoenix, Inc.,
prepared a proposal for the MPCA staff on the cost of !andfilling the sludge at Pinebend. Upon
completion of the construction at the Metro Plant, the Commission would rely upon the new
sludge facilities, i.e., dewatering, sludge drying and incineration for sludge disposal.
3. Metropolitan Waste Control Commission Proposed Land Application
The Commission has decided that they could meet the effluent limitations proposed by the MPCA
staff by using the landfill or land spreading of the excess sludge quantities. Instead of using
the Pinebend Landfill, the Commission has proposed that a longer-term solution be undertaken
at this time. The Commission will need a permanent land.disposal site for screen and grit,
incinerator ash and back-up sludge disposal for a number of treatment plants. ~,;
A permanent land application for the Commission could solve long-term needs and
also provide for.disposal of sludge from the Metro Plant to meet permit requirements proposed~--~.
by the Agency staff.
The Commission has prepared a preliminary study on a proposed land application project and has
proposed a schedule to meet the effluent- limitations that would be incorporated in the NPDES
permit. Based on the preliminary study the Commission has proposed the purchase of a site in
Rosemount for the land application (landfilling and/or spreading) of Metro sludge necessary to
meet proposed permit conditions and also provide a permanent site for land disposal of screen
and grit, incinerator ash and back-up sludge disposal for other treatment plants.
Other Alternatives
The Council would like to know if there are other alternatives for the management of 'sludge,
screenings and grit, and incinerator ash.
General Issues
A $300 million Metro Plant expansibn is underway and will be completed by 1981. The project
has been delayed by the impounding of federal grant funds and the review of the pyrolysis project
Should the Metropolitan Area be required to spend additional capital and operating funds for
interim improvements to the plant during the period that permanent facilities are under con-
struction?
The construction, environmental review and permits for land disposal of sludge may require
a substantial period of time. Will the project be in operation for sufficient, period of time
to justify the expenditures as an interim solution?
The Commission is conducting a 201 Facilities Planning Study of the management of screen and
grit, incinerator ash, and other residuals from all the treatment plant processes. The
study will be completed in early 1979. Should the Commission and Council commit resources for
site acquisition and construction of facilities before that study is completed ?Will an interim
sludge solution jeopardize the careful planning required to provide for the implementation of
a permanent residual management plan?
What are the environmental and public health concerns warranting~an interim solution? What
are the specific environmental and public health impacts if no interim improvements are made?

Dear Mr..and Mrs. Dolge:
Sometime ago I called Mrs. Dolge and said that possibly the City may
wish to purchase the property owned by Mr. Dolge's Father. Someday we
hope to do something with the curve by the park and feel that if you
intend to sell the land now, it would be better to buy it now than after
someone buys it and begins to make a home there.
I would greatly appreciate hearing from you when you decide what to do
with the property.

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that~ -,a public.h~o_~]..~_._.the_~ -~-~. above-entitled
matter will be held in the Metropo~rs, 3x~Metro
Square
Building, St. Paul, Minnesota, on T~esday, October 25, 1977, ~on~mencing at
9:00 A.M. and continuing until allXXper~unity/ to be
heard.
All interested or affected persons will have an opportunity to
participate concerning the adoption of the proposed rules. Statements may
be made orally and written material may be submitted, whether or not an
appearance is made at the hearings, by mail to Steve Mihalchick, Office of
Hear~.ng Examiners, Room 300, 1745 University Avenue, St. Paul, Minnesota
55104, telephone (612) 296-8112, either before the hearing or within five (5)
working days, or for a period not to exceed twenty (20) calendar days if
ordered by the Mearing Examiner, after the close of the hearing.
The proposed rules establish an Industrial Cost Recovery (ICR) System
to be implemented by the Commission. In order to be eligible for federal
construction grants, the Commission must meet all federal grant requirements
of Public Law 92-500; adoption of an IC'R System is one of these requirements.
ICR will result in a new charge to industrial users of the Metropolitan
Disposal System, with that charge intended to pay back that portion of
federal construction grants received by the Commission attributable to
providing treatment capacity for the wastes from industrial users. Copies
of the proposed rules are now available and one free copy may be obtained
by writing to the Metropolitan Waste Control Commission, 350 Metro Square
Building, St. Paul, Minnesota 55101. Additional copies will be available
at the door on the date of the hearing.
Statutory authority to adopt the proposed rules is contained in
Minnesota Statutes §473.504, Subdivision 4 and Subdivision 5.
Notice is hereby given that twenty-five (25) days prior to the hearing,
a "s. tatement of need" explaining why the Commission feels the proposed rules
are necessary and a "statement of evidence" outlining the testimony to be
introduced will be available for public inspection and review at the Office
of Hearing Examiners ~
