A review o the State Database indicated that the City of New Hope does not have a DNR Appropriation Permit for an emergency supply system. Please be advised that a water appropriation permit will be needed from the Department of Natural Resources if the City of New Hope believes that more than 10,000 gallons per day, or one million gallons per year, will be pumped from Well #1 when an emergency water source is required for the City of New Hope. Should the City of believe that well #1 will exceed the above thresholds, then the City of New Hope should apply for a DNR Appropriation Permit by submitting the completed apppplication form (attached) with supportingg information to Area Hydrolog�tst, Kate Drewry, T3NR Ecolog�'cal and Water Resources, 1 Z00 Warner Road, Saint Paul, MN 55106. Please note that the DNR Appropriation Permit will need to be obtained before well #1 can be used, and that additional information may be requested should any issues arise. Please note specific requirements related to conservation and the statement of justification. Minnesota Statutes and rules require all water users to employ the best available means and practices to promote the efficient use of water. We are encouraging public water suppliers to implement conservation measures and programs to reduce water demand. Actions taken to reduce demand can negate or delay the need to develop additional water supplies, save money and conserve water resources for future use. During review of amendment requests, the Department will evaluate alternatives to the proposed well including the effectiveness of conservation measures. Thank you for your cooperation.

The examination of plans is based upon the supposition that the data on which the design is based are correct, and that necessary legal authority has been obtained to construct the project. The responsibility for the design of structural features and the efficiency of equipment must be taken by the project designer. Approval is contingent upon satisfactory disposition of any requirements included with this report. It is the project owner's responsibility to retain the plans at the project location. Water supply plans are examined with regard to the location, construction and operational features of the design and maintenance of all parts of the system which may affect the safety and sanitary quality of the water. Examination is based on the standards of this department. It is the contractor's responsibility to contact the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) for inspections as indicated in the report pertaining to inspections. If you have any questions regarding information contained in this report, please contact me at 651/201-4683. Please direct all questions regarding plumbing inspections to the Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry at 651/284-5067. This project proposal consists of the reactivation of Well No. 1 (Unique No. 203542) as an Emergency Backup Community Water Supply Well. Well No. 1 is a 24 -inch by 16 -inch steel cased well, approximately 342 feet, finished in the Jordan formation. The 24 -inch casing extends to 205 feet, and the 16 -inch casing to 315 feet, and there is 22 feet of open hole. The legal location of the well is the NW '/4 of SW '/, of SE %a of Section No. 7, TI 18N, R 21 W, Hennepin County. Information submitted with the proposal and records on file at the MDH indicate that the well was completed by Bergerson-Caswell, Inc., in June, 1959, using solid tool (cable too[) drilling method. The well was completed as a 24 -inch by 16 -inch diameter, 422 -feet bedrock well with open hole in the Prairie du Chien and Jordan formations. Construction consisted of driving the 24 -inch diameter steel casing into the top of the Prairie du Chien Group to 213 fat, drilling a 24 -inch diameter bore hole to 422 feet, installing 16 -inch diameter steel casing to 314 feet, and grouting the annular space between the casings with cement from 245 feet up to the ground surface. The casing penetrates unconsolidated quaternary deposits from the ground surface to 181 feet, St. Peter sandstone from 181 to 202 feet, Prairie du Chien Group from 202 to 339 feet, and Jordan sandstone from 339 to 422 feet. The December 14, 2011 down hole video showed that the open hole had been filled in to a depth of 334 feet. Joint Water Commission - Emergency Well No. 1 Well Plan No. 120317 Page 2 July 19, 2012 Requirement(s): Well 1. The MDH review of the December 14, 2011, down hole video did not reveal any obvious defects that would rule out use of this well for a community water supply. The video showed evidence of minor corrosion and/or encrustation on the casing, but there were no visible holes, cracks or fractures in the casing. The annular space around most of the bottom of the 16 -inch casing appeared to be open, supporting previous reports that the annular space surrounding the 16 -inch casing is not grouted below 245 feet. A piece of cable is partly cemented into the side of the bore hole below the casing. A small diameter pipe extends vertically several inches above the fill in the bottom of the well. 2. The pumphouse may be used only for the containment and protection of the well, pump, water treatment equipment, and water treatment chemicals, if any. No other use of the building is permitted. The building must not be used for vehicle or other equipment storage or maintenance, and must not be used for storage or mixing of fuel, paint or other chemicals. 3. The well must be accessible to a drilling machine or hoist for maintenance, repair and sealing of the well. The pumphouse must be provided with a roof hatch or comparable access to the well. 4. The well location must comply with the contaminant setback distances specified in Minnesota Rules, part 4725.4450, but in no case be less than 50 feet, from a source of contamination, except as specified in Minnesota Rules, part 4725.5850, subpart 2. No storm sewer or buried sanitary sewer, including floor drains and other buried sewer service lines under a building, may be located less than 50 feet from the well. Any existing storm or sanitary sewer located less than 50 feet from the well must be permanently disconnected from service, and the sewer pipe removed or the ends permanently plugged with concrete such that sewage cannot come within 50 feet of the well. S. The well must have an MHD approved buried pitless connection, or an above -grade discharge in a pumphouse. 6. Modifications to the well, including any changes to the wellhead, must not be made until after plans have been submitted to and approved by the MDH. 7. All well contracting activities, including wellhead completion, pump installation, and discharge head connection must be done by or under the direct supervision of a person licensed by the MDH to perform those activities. 8. The well owner must obtain a Water Use Permit in accordance with the requirements of the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources. 9. The city of New Hope must contact the following offices if the emergency water supply well is ever placed into production: The MDH, city of Minneapolis, city of Crystal, and the city of Golden Valley. In addition, the city of New Hope must provide a copy of the action plan to the MDH when the well is placed into production. This plan should be submitted to our office as soon as possible. Joint Water Commission - Emergency Well No. 1 Well Plan No. 120317 Page 3 July 19, 2012 10. Since the laboratory reports indicate that the combined radium 226 + 228 is 5 picocuries per liter (pCi/L) (see laboratory report), the city of New Hope must contact the MDH district engineer, Isaac Bradlich, at 651/201 3971, if the well is ever placed into production. 11. Please verify that only clear water wastes are allowed to discharge into the floor drain inside the pumphouse. If anything other than clear water wastes are going to discharge to the floor drain, then another approved method of sewage disposal must be provided. 12. Prior to permanent sealing of the well, the small diameter pipe currently at a depth of 334 feet and any other obstructions that may interfere with sealing must be removed from the well; the fill material must be removed to within 10 feet of the original bottom of the well; and the 16 -inch casing must be ripped or perforated from the bottom of the casing up to a depth of 245 feet, in accordance with Minnesota Rules, part 4725.3850, subpart 3. Well Site Inspection 13. The site location was inspected on November 1, 2011, by Amal Djerrari of the MDH. Mr. Guy Johnson and Mr. Bernie Weber, from the city of New Hope, and Mr. Steve Nelson, from Bolton and Menk, Inc., were present to answer questions about the setback distances from potential contamination sources and the locations of property boundaries. The well is already constructed. This is a disaffected well that the city wants to rehabilitate and use as an emergency well. Information provided to the MDH indicates that the city of New Hope owns the parcel on which the well is located. The parcel boundary, however, is less than fifty feet from the well. The city has entered into an easement agreement with the school district for permanent control of the property needed to control the area within 50 feet of the well site. A copy of the easement is contained in the Emergency Well Reactivation Submittal. The well is completed in the Prairie du Chien -Jordan Aquifer, which has sufficient geologic cover over it to retard the vertical movement of contamination. The original well was completed in the Jordan Aquifer to a depth of 422 feet. The contact between the Prairie du Chien and the Jordan is at 339 feet. The hole is filled with caving material from 342 feet to the bottom. The driller tried to bail to 422 feet, but the hole kept refilling to 342 feet. The floor drains are connected to a pipe that exits the building on the east side, heads south, and then west towards the storm or sanitary sewer mains on Aquilla Avenue. The city tried to verify the potential connection to the sewer but could not confirm it. They are thinking of plugging the known portion of the pipe that exits from the building. Except for this issue, all setback distances appear to be met and other siting criteria specified in Minnesota Rules, chapter 4720, based on the location of the well and our evaluation of the surrounding area. Note(s): 1. The 8 square figures surrounding the valves and circular object on the plan view nelsosheet are footings for an old or existing water tower. 2. The old sewer line from the floor drain in the pumphouse will be disconnected in the yard, south of the pumphouse, and it will be reconnected to a new sewer line and subsequently to a buried gravel pocket. The buried gravel pocket will be located approximately 30 feet from Well No. 1. Joint Water Commission - Emergency Well No. 1 Well Plan No. 120317 Page 4 July 19, 2012 COMPLIANCE: No construction shall take place except in accordance with the approved plans. If it is desired to make deviations from the approved plans, the MIH should be consulted and approval of the changes ohtained before the construction is started; otherwise, such construction is installed without proper approval and, in addition, may create dangers to public health. Authorization for construction in accordance with the approved plans may be withdrawn if construction is not undertaken within a period of two years. The fact that the plans have been approved does not necessarily mean that recommendations or requirements for change will not be made at some later time when changed conditions, additional information, or advanced knowledge make improvements necessary.
