The Target North St. Paul Stormwater Retrofit project will target phosphorus removal from stormwater runoff. This runoff receives limited treatment before discharging to Kohlman Creek, a waterbody impaired for excess nutrients. This project is one of many efforts RWMWD has undertaken to improve the water quality of Kohlman Lake and the downstream waterbodies. The Ramsey-Washington Metro Watershed District (RWMWD) is responsible for the protection and restoration of the water quality of 20 lakes and 5 creeks within its boundary.
Installation of approximately 25 curb-cut rain gardens in priority subwatersheds.

Three rain gardens are proposed in the McCarrons subwatershed and 23 are proposed in the Como Lake subwatershed.
