One of the key tasks in the City's <br />nondegradation assessment is to coordinate water quality <br />activities already being implemented by the Lower Rum <br />and Coon Creek Watershed Districts within the City and <br />those that may be required as a result of the <br />nondegradation assessment. Since much of the <br />development in Andover has occurred under watershed <br />district rules, the rules of both watershed districts were <br />assessed relative to their effectiveness in maintaining or <br />reducing pollutant loads. Wenck is developing this plan <br />concurrently with the Coon Creek Watershed District Water Quality Plan in order to provide a cost <br />effective approach for the City and to coordinate activities that both the City and Watershed are <br />undertaking to address nondegradation. 0 <br /> <br /> <br />Coon Creek Watershed District Water Quality Plan <br /> <br />Wenck Associates, Inc. is currently developing a nondegradation assessment and report for the Coon <br />Creek Watershed District. Wenck staff is using the P8 model to predict subwatershed loading based <br />on 1988, current, and future land use. Wenck GIS staff has incorporated the past, present and future <br />land use plans of each member city within the watershed district to easily compare land use changes <br />and impervious surfaces. The District rules have been assessed relative to their effectiveness in <br />maintaining or reducing pollutant loads. This effectiveness is then applied to the loading rates <br />predicted by the P8 model to determine if nondegradation is met. <br /> <br />T:\0598\OOINonDegradation Proposal\Qualifications.doc <br /> <br />..............Wenck <br />
