Progress Update. Dear Members of the Toronto Executive Committee and City Council,

Progress Update. One round of Section 319 applications was scored but the resulting Project Work Plans were largely unfocused and oftentimes vague. Specific problems involved plans not being targeted towards BMPs for water bodies with TMDLs without extensive editing. Many applicants asked for funding to be spent across a watershed or county without regard for critical areas. Some wanted to further study an area for which sufficient data had been collected but hadn’t been used. This “pre-test” of Project Work Plans highlighted challenges that can focus future efforts. MPCA plans to hire a new staff (0.5 FTE) to develop guidance documents, conduct training, and revise the request for grant applications to improve this situation. This staff person will be overseen by the Statewide Administration Supervisor and the Metro Watershed Section Manager. FFY 2017 Report EPA reviewed and approved MPCA’s FY17 Workplan. Based on issues raised during the course of EPA’s review, however, MPCA requested in October 2017 a two-year waiver from the Section 319 guidelines, in order to choose a number of small watersheds and create detailed nine-element watershed based plans (9E-WBP), similar to detailed grant work plans, for each small watershed. EPA is in the process of completing its review of MPCA’s request. If approved, FFY2018 and 2019 Section 319 monies would fund projects as described in the waiver request, until several 9E-WBP can be reviewed and approved by U.S. EPA. FFY 2018 Report On October 23, 2017, US EPA Region 5 granted a two-year waiver for FFY2018 and FFY 2019 from meeting the WBP requirements. For FFY2018, Section 319 funds continued to be competitively funded under the temporary waiver of the 9E-WBP requirement. Several meetings were held from December 2017 to mid-summer with local partners to discuss the intent and proposed designs of the new Section 319 program, branded “Section 319 Small Watersheds Focus” and often referred to as 319 Focus for short. Once the program design was settled upon, MPCA issued a continuously open request for interest. Once we received a sufficient number of expressions of interest (approximately 40), the interested LGUs were evaluated. The 19 likely recipients were interviewed at their sites across the state. From these requests, 10 were prioritized for funding beginning in 2020. These prioritized watersheds are spread across the state geographically, honoring the Minnesota Watershed Approach and meeting our state priorities. Pass-through funds...
