08. MEMORANDUM - Subordination of Easement for CLFLWD for Bone Lake Water Quality ProjectPage 1 of 2 City of Scandia 14727 209 th St. N. PO Box 128, Scandia, Minnesota 55073 Phone (651) 433 -2274 Fax (651) 433 -5112 http://www.cityofscandia.com MEMORANDUM DATE: July 1, 2021 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members FROM: Ken Cammilleri, Administrator RE: Subordination of Easement for CLFLWD for Bone Lake Water Quality Project The Comfort Lake Forest Lake Watershed District (CLFLWD) is completing wetland restoration on the northwestern corner of Bone Lake near the intersections of 138th Street N and Melonie Trl N in the Bonneyview Subdivision. This project will remove accumulated phosphorus-rich sediment from the northern portion of a wetland directly adjacent to Bone Lake that had a history of receiving direct livestock manure runoff from the dairy farm barnyard located on the same northern part of the wetland. This project is estimated to reduce watershed phosphorus loads to Bone Lake by 15 lb/yr (or 30% of the remaining 50 lb/yr reduction needed for Bone Lake to achieve the District long-term goal of 30 ug/L).

It is highly recommended that the City Council approve the attached agreement. Please let me know if you have any questions.
