This project proposes significant improvements to the City of Bloomington's Anti-Icing/Brine making capabilities. The use of anti-icing technology reduces the amount of salt needed to clear snow and ice from city street. The improvements work to address the chloride impairment in Nine Mile Creek and the metro area by reducing the amount of salt applied to the streets and thereby reducing the amount of chlorides entering our surface water systems.

The project will improve the water quality of Bassett Creek by addressing a significant flooding issue and will restore 1.7 acres of wetland and 1 acre of upland habitat. The project will create a sediment forebay, remove accumulated sediment, and expand the footprint of existing stormwater ponds in the City of Golden Valley. The result will be approximately 22 acre-feet of additional flood storage and the removal of an estimated 9 pounds of phosphorus per year.
This project will improve the water quality of the Mississippi River through stormwater treatment and flood control activities. The Capitol Region Watershed District and the City of Lauderdale will expand the storage area of a regional stormwater pond and and improve the pond treatment capacity by installation of an iron-enhanced sand filter along the pond edge. This project is funded through the Ramsey County allocation of the Watershed-Based Funding Pilot Program for the Seven County Metropolitan Area.
This project will improve the water quality to Upper Twin Lake and the Mississippi River. This will be accomplished through cost share programs administered through the Shingle Creek Watershed Management Commission (WMC) and West Mississippi WMC that will provide matching funds to member cities to undertake small pollutant load and runoff volume reduction projects typically costing less than $100,000. This project will install bioretention basins which will reduce nutrients to Upper Twin Lake and bacteria loads to the Mississippi River.
