The new system that is being proposed is for digital cameras. We have two companies that have bid the installation and equipment; Reliance telephone and Streamline Communications. The Reliance telephone Inc bid is $25,183.50 but this doesn't include several items that are still needed and it does not include the running of the CAT 5 cable for the system. The bid from Streamline Communications is $27,697.30 and includes all the cabling that needs to be done. All the cabling will need to be replaced in order for digital cameras to work properly. There are two items that we will need to purchase separately through the IT department, one of items is an APC smart UPS for $290.25 and a 48 port manage switch for $2,959.52. We know that there is a need to upgrade 6 monitors running roughly $4,200.00 to finish off the project. The estimated cost for this project is $35,147.07. We have $37,000 that was put aside into an assigned account to help fund this project last year.

WASECA COUNTY REQUEST FOR BOARD ACTION Agenda Item: Right of Way process Consent Agenda: Yes X No Requested Board Date: March 7, 2017 Originating Department(s): Highway Presenter(s): Nathan Richman Action: The Department is requesting board approval of an update to the easement compensation policy. Summary: The past practice has included; 1) Use the Assessor s office annual summary report as the starting point. This has sales data and Crop Equivalency Ratings. 2) Waseca County has added 10% to this for projects for the last several years. 3) Waseca County has had a minimum payment of $500 when appraisals are done. Background: The flood repair projects on County State Aid 9 and County State Aid 26 extend beyond the existing 99 wide road right of way. Four additional parcels will be needed for the culvert replacement work and the rip rap work in the channel. The parcels are: The parcel upstream of CSAH 9 is a 30.5 by 45 rectangle. This is 0.03 acres. The parcel downstream of CSAH 9 is a 55.5 by 105 rectangle. This is 0.13 acres. The parcel upstream of CSAH 26 is a 30.5 by 75 rectangle. This is 0.05 acres. The parcel downstream of CSAH 26 is a 55.5 by 105 rectangle. This is 0.13 acres. Budget/Financial Consideration: The 2017 right of way budget is $30,000. These purchases would be the first payments from the budget item. Our purchases are small acreages. They are expected to be between $500 and $1,500 if all three past practices are continued. Legal Consideration: MN State Aid Right of Way purchases above $25,000 must have appraisals. Purchases below that amount may have the land value set by County Board policy. Federal project right of way standards are higher than state aid. These are not federal projects.

Summary: In 2011, the City of Waseca, Waseca County, the Waseca Lakes Association, and Minnesota State University Mankato s Water Resources Center (WRC) entered into an agreement to improve the health of Waseca area lakes by incorporating research into the implementation of management practices. The project duration was proposed to be May 1, 2011 through May 1, 2013. Within the agreement, the WRC was tasked with providing a detailed report highlighting study findings with recommendations for implementation of management actions in December of 2013; however, a report was not submitted at this time. On January 13, 2017, the Assessment Results and Management Options for Clear and Loon Lakes report was submitted by the WRC to the City of Waseca. The report: Provides a history of changes that have occurred throughout the watersheds; Identifies local priorities based on community input; Describes land and lake characteristics and their implications for impairments; Presents water quality and vegetation survey data collected through 2011 and 2012; Further analyzes lake water quality by coupling collected results with engineering models; and Outlines management options that may be implemented in order to meet state water quality standards. The Waseca Lakes Association, with assistance from the Water Resource Specialist, is currently creating an implementation plan to combat aquatic invasive species and improve water quality in Clear and Loon Lakes. The submitted report will assist with project prioritization for implementation efforts. The full report can be found on the Waseca County website at the following link: http://www.co.waseca.mn.us/documentcenter/view/4258. In addition, a report summary created by the Water Resource Specialist has been included for your reference.

Minnesota State University, Mankato s Water Resources Center Assessment Results and Management Options for Clear and Loon Lakes Report Summary In 2011, a cooperative agreement between Minnesota State University, Mankato s Water Resources Center (WRC), the City of Waseca (City), Waseca County (County), and the Waseca Lakes Association (WLA) was established to improve the health of Waseca area lakes by incorporating research into the implementation of management practices. On January 13, 2017, the City received the final Assessment Results and Management Options for Clear and Loon Lakes report from the WRC. This report: 1. Provides a history of changes that have occurred throughout the watersheds; 2. Identifies local priorities based on community input; 3. Describes land and lake characteristics and their implications for impairments; 4. Presents water quality and vegetation survey data collected in 2011 and 2012; 5. Further analyzes lake water quality by coupling collected results with engineering models; and 6. Outlines management options that may be implemented in order to meet state water quality standards. Coupled with the Waseca County Local Water Management Plan, Cannon River Watershed Total Maximum Daily Load, and the Cannon River Watershed Restoration and Protection Strategies document, the report can assist in prioritization efforts for implementation of best management practices to obtain optimal pollutant reductions in the Cannon River Watershed. Watershed Characteristics High conversion of perennial vegetation to productive land Cannon River Watershed Total Maximum Daily Load completed October, 2016 Clear and Loon Lake impairments: nutrients/eutrophication Clear Lake watershed: 2,620 acres - 1,914 acres drain into Clear Lake - 25.9% of watershed is lake, 39% developed, 18.8% rowcrop Loon Lake watershed: 459 acres - 331 acres drain into Loon Lake - 28% of watershed is lake, 64.3% developed, 4.5% row-crop Ecoregion: Western Cornbelt Plains Limestone geology and thick glacial till Peat/muck soils and poorly drained clay loams 2 open drainage ditches in Clear Lake watershed
Local Priorities Community input on local priorities was sought through a public information meeting as well as citizen interviews. In addition, to local priorities, surveys gathered input on lake concerns and how citizens valued or used area lakes. Identified priorities most notably included improved water quality, improved watershed management, improved fishing and less invasive vegetation. The highest ranking concerns in the Waseca community included excessive vegetation, odor, water quality and watershed challenges. Citizens valued area lakes for trail activities, motorized recreation, fishing and non-motorized recreation. Water Quality Data Phosphorus is nearly always the limiting nutrient for impairments in southern Minnesota lakes. Changing land use triggers the release and/or transport of sediment and nutrients from watersheds into surface waters. Over time, nutrients incorporate into lake sediments, but can again mix with the water column through a process known as internal loading. The annual Total Phosphorus (TP) load in Clear Lake was modeled to be 78 to 91% higher than would be expected for the lake under natural conditions. The 2- year monitoring results found that internal loading was the single most significant source of TP to Clear Lake (53% of total loading), and that Gaiter Lake and the Maplewood subwatersheds were significant contributors of externally loaded TP. In order to meet the state water quality standard, Clear Lake annual TP loads require a reduction of 32 to 43%. Maximum and minimum Total Phosphorus (TP) concentrations for various Clear Lake inlets in 2011-2012. TP water quality standard for the Western Cornbelt region is <65ppb. Clear Lake in-lake observations for TP, Chlorophyll-a and Secchi disk water clarity for Clear Lake in 2011 and 2012. Western Corn Belt water quality standards are indicated by the black horizontal dashed lines. Black data points indicate dates when Curly-leaf pondweed plants were alive, and red data points indicate sample dates when Curly-leaf pondweed plants had died off. Yellow boxes indicate dates in which the lake was stratified. Loon Lake models indicated TP loading 308 to 520% higher than expected under natural conditions. An estimated 66% of the annual load came from internal loading, with 34% of the remaining load originating from watershed contribution. In order to meet
the state water quality standard, Loon Lake annual TP loads require a reduction of 70 to 82%. Vegetation Data Clear Lake: Vegetation surveys were conducted at 260 point-intercept locations before and after Curly-leaf pondweed (CLP) die off in 2011 and 2012. Results of vegetation surveys were assigned Floristic Quality Index (FQI) numbers in order to determine the relative health of the lake. On all four dates of the surveys, FQI values were indicative of a disturbed environment with limited natural plant community presence. CLP was found at greater than or equal to 57% of sample sites during spring sample events. CLP was most dense on the southern and western portions of the lake throughout 2011. CLP was found in highest density in the southern and western portions of the lake in early 2012 and on the southeastern portion of the lake in late 2012. Eurasian watermilfoil was consistently most dense on the southern and eastern shorelines. Loon Lake: Vegetation surveys were conducted at 87 point-intercept locations in 2011 and 2012. Due to extremely low water levels, a vegetation survey could not be completed in late 2012. FQI values on all three sampling dates were indicative of a disturbed environment with limited natural plant community presence; numbers were lower than those observed in Clear Lake. High algal mat densities were observed in late 2011. While CLP was not observed in 2011, it was found at 11.5% of pointintercept locations during 2012. Loon Lake is currently not infested by Eurasian watermilfoil. Management Options The key point from the report is that Waseca lakes are highly impaired due to excessive phosphorus. Addressing the high TP concentrations will address several underlying issues it is noted that many of the areas citizens identified as priority concerns (algae, odor, invasive vegetation, etc.) are symptoms of the true underlying phosphorus problem. The management strategies that are presented within the report are grouped into three categories, those being: 1. Civic engagement and local government unit leadership; 2. Watershed approaches; and 3. In-lake strategies. A summary table of potential management options to reduce phosphorus loading is presented on the following page. For each option presented, implementation timing needed (short = < 2 years, mid = 3-5 years, long = > 5 years), potential effectiveness (1 = weak, 3= strong), relative cost ($ = low cost, $$$= high cost), regulatory limitations (1 = limited challenges, 5= significant challenges), and social acceptance (1 = likely to be accepted, 3= likely to meet resistance) are ranked. Details on each of the practices can be found within the full report on the Waseca County website (http://www.co.waseca.mn.us/documentcenter/view/4258).
