HomeMy WebLinkAboutItem 06.eo Date: 2 February 2015 Item No. APPROVE AN AMENDMENT TO THE JOINT POWERS AGREEMENT WITH THE MINNESOTA DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES Proposed Action Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: Move to approve an amendment to the Joint Powers Agreement with the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources regarding the installation of a monitoring well at Well No. 3. Overview On November 17, 2014, the City of Lakeville entered into a Joint Powers Agreement and an Agreement for Installation, Maintenance and Use of Two Test Holes or Water Level Observation Wells on Private or Public Land with the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) so that the DNR could install a monitoring well at the City of Lakeville's Well No. 3 site. The DNR is interested in determining if there is any relationship between the pumping of area wells and the elevation of water flowing through nearby South Creek. The Joint Powers Agreement was originally established so that the DNR would reimburse the City of Lakeville for the costs associated with the installation of a hydrant that would be used to flush the well water line in conjunction with the test. City Staff is also requesting reimbursement for the electricity that will be used to run Well No. 3 during the DNR's test. Based on past usage and winter consumption rates, the City and the DNR have estimated the costs associated with running Well No. 3 during the DNR's one-week test will be approximately $3,100. The amendment to the Joint Powers Agreement will provide for reimbursement up to $3,100. Primary Issues to Consider • What impacts will this monitoring well have on the operation of Well No. 3? The aquifer test will not impact the operation of Well No. 3. The test will be conducted over a one-week period this February. Well No. 3 is typically not in use at this time of year. Supporting Information • The original Joint Powers Agreement for the installation of a hydrant at Well No. 3. • The amendment to the Joint Powers Agreement with the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources.
