Lake Orono is also subject to Sherbume County's "Comprehensive Water Plan". A representative from the Sherburne County Soil and Water Conservation District has been involved with the project from the beginning and actually assisted in the Lake study that preceded the project. The project is consistent with the county's comprehensive water plan. 29. Impacts on Infrastructure and Public Services Will new or expanded utilities, roads, other infrastructure, or public services be required to serve the project? ~ Yes x No If yes, describe the new or additional infrastructure / services needed. (Any infrastructure that is a" connected action" with respect to the project must be assessed in this EAW; see "EAW Guideline" for details.) N/A 30. Related Developments; Cumulative Impacts a. Are future stages of this development planned or likely? __Yes x No If yes, briefly describe future stages, their timing, and plans for environmental review. b. Is this project a subsequent stage of an earlier project? __ Yes x No If yes, briefly describe the past development, its timing, and past environmental review. C. Is other development anticipated on adjacent lands or outlots? x Yes ~ No If yes, briefly describe the development and its relationship to the present project. d. If a, b, or c were marked Yes, discuss any cumulative environmental impacts resulting from this project and the other development. The proposed lake improvement project is not a "phased action" or "connected action" with any other project or development. However, with or without the lake project, development of the few remaining vacant parcels adjacent to the lake is anticipated in the near future. The shallow depth of sediment (3 foot average except for berms erected as sound barriers) should not hinder development on the disposal sites. The sediment to be disposed of has been analyzed for organic matter. Soils high in organic material will not be used in locations where footings are likely. The core samples taken indicate that hazardous substances in the sediment from the lake is not a concern. 31. Other Potential Environmental Impacts If the project may cause any adverse environmental impacts which were not addressed by items 1 to 28, identify and discuss them here, along with any proposed mitigation. None 32. Summary of issues (This section need not be completed if the EAW is being done for ElS scoping; instead, address relevant issues in the draft Scoping Decisions document which must accompany the EAW.) List any impacts and issues identified above that may require further investigation before the project is commenced. Discuss any alternatives or mitigative measures that have been or may be considered for these impacts and issues, including those that have been or may be ordered as permit conditions.
