He explained that recent completion of Well 16 required that the City submit a request to the Minnesota DNR to amend its water. appropriation permit and request an increase in its annual appropriation, based on population growth. He explained that the DNR established certain requirements that must be met before it would consider an amended appropriation permit. The City has complied with two requirements: 1) To conduct an inventory of domestic wells within a 1 ~/2 -mile radius of Well 16; and 2) To install three observation wells to monitor groundwater levels and establish a groundwater monitoring program. The remaining two requirements, (an ordinance concerning water use restrictions and a policy for prevention and resolution of private well interference), are before the City Council for approval this evening. The proposed ordinance establishes odd/even and time of day watering restrictions. If approved, it would become effective January 1, 2004. The ordinance includes no watering between the hours of 11 a.m. and 5 p.m. daily. Homeowners' associations and apartment complexes that provide a common irrigation system may water only every other day. An odd-even sprinkling restriction based on street addresses would also be in effect from May 1 to September 30 each year. These requirements would not apply to limited hand watering of plants, watering of new landscaping, sod. or seed within 30 days of installation, or watering from a source other than the City's water supply. Mr. Volk explained that the purpose of the policy for prevention and resolution of private well interference is to define the roles and responsibilities of the City of Lakeville in preventing, responding to and resolving interruptions to water delivery that may be caused by well interference. The policy also defines the responsibilities of the well. owner, the means to resolve well interference, and the roles of the City and the DNR to the private well owner. Mr. Volk explained that as a result of lengthy negotiations with the DNR, the City achieved an increase in daily watering use from 17 million gallons per day to 21.9 million gallons per day. The DNR also conceded to allow the City of Lakeville an annual appropriation of 2.6 billion. gallons.
