RE: Halverson-Dimler Restoration
Dear Tiffany:
We are pleased to submit the attached proposal for the Halverson-Dimler Restoration Project. Our team
is lead by Jason Naber, a senior biologist, who has successfully managed many ecosystem restoration
projects. Tony DeMars of Cross River Consulting will be part of the team focusing on the management
planning components. Tony has extensive experience with this site having inventoried the property during
different times of the year. This work included a detailed natural resource inventory of plant communities,
preliminary mapping of tiles and ditches, historical land use review, identification of trail alignments and
the establishment of restoration targets and strategies. Tony has also completed property assessments and
landscape-level management plans for the Six Mile Marsh Corridor, Upland Farms and Woodland Cove
Development Projects. Through these projects and his work on the Halverson-Dimler parcels, Tony
brings an intimate knowledge of ecological characteristics as well as an understanding of the
local/regional restoration context that is key to working successfully with project partners. Jason and
Tony have a long history of working together on projects and have demonstrated their effective
partnership through the implementation of many similar restoration projects including the District’s large
wetland restoration project along Painter Creek.
Jason and Tony are supported by a strong staff of professionals at EOR including Annie Weeks who
recently completed extensive research on agricultural field restoration for a Master’s program. Our lead
engineer for the project will be Jay R Hill. Jay brings decades of design and construction contract
management experience. Jay also is a registered land surveyor who will oversee site surveying activities
and can address utility easement issues as needed. EOR’s support staff cover disciplines including
wetland science, landscape architecture and ecosystem restoration. Many of our staff have experience
working with MCWD on similar successful restoration projects.
Our restoration plan and design will emphasize a cost-effective, incremental approach to achieving long
term restoration of the Halverson-Dimler parcels. The restoration plan and design will provide a
neighborhood amenity with key ecological attributes integrated into a trail plan.
EOR’s team is available to start immediately in order to develop plans and specifications that can be
publically bid early fall 2012.
Sincerely,
Jason R. Naber - Project Manager

REPRESENTATIVE PROJECT DETAILS
ACD 53-62 Wetland Feasibility Report This subwatershed contains many wetlands impacted by agricultural
drainage systems that are upstream of Golden Lake, a nutrient-impaired
waterbody. Restoration of these wetlands offer an important opportunity
regarding state wetland mitigation credits for the Twin Cities Metro Area,
while providing an opportunity for investigating the nutrient dynamics of
wetlands upstream of impaired waters. EOR’s study identified the
vegetative and hydrologic restoration features that would yield the most
wetland restoration credits under both the State and Federal wetland credit
programs. These areas were further evaluated and one 500-acre site is
currently undergoing extensive restoration as part of a State-approved
Wetland Bank.
Silver Creek Corridor Eco-Restoration
Private lands restoration activities were carried out in two of seven corridor
segments. EOR visited with and developed construction conservation
agreements with five landowners and secured state cost-share funds. In the
hydrologically disturbed stream reach, rock vanes, rootwad revetments,
brush-grids, wattles, coir logs, and other soil bioengineering methods were
employed. Within another stream reach, a multi-year plant community
restoration was completed. This involved large areas of oak and riparian
forest restoration, emergent wetland creation in sod fields, as well as reed
canary grass treatment cycles in the sedge meadow areas, consisting of
prescribed burning & herbicide wicking. EOR coordinated site activities
with Minnesota Conservation Corps and other contractors.
Bruce Vento Nature Sanctuary The historic, sacred Carver’s Cave and early Mississippi River settlement
area (now known as the Bruce Vento Nature Sanctuary) was restored from
brownfield conditions to include a 870 foot groundwater-fed stream, 3
wetlands, black and tamarack seepage swamps, and 4 acres of bedrock bluff
prairie. The ecological restoration was integrated with park design concepts
and 1.4 trail miles were also constructed for future paving. This project
required complex collaboration with park planning, historic preservation,
and tribal resource protection efforts. Design services included: various
public and project partner presentations, wetland permitting, coordinating
with the contaminated area’s Response Action Plan, and construction
oversight.
Lino Lakes Special Area Management Plan (SAMP) Current wetland policies, including the Federal Mitigation Rule & MN’s Wetland
Conservation Act, stress the importance of a watershed-based approach for
broader water resource benefits. This approach to mitigation can provide
permitting flexibility by demonstrating that a comprehensive planning approach
was taken to evaluate development alternatives and prioritize actions that are least
environmentally damaging. MN’s first Special Area Management Plan (SAMP)
was based on data from the state-adopted Comprehensive Wetland Protection and
Management Plan, City’s Comprehensive Plan, and several Total Maximum
Daily Load (TMDL) studies within and adjacent to the City. Working together
with the City, the Watershed District, and the USACE, EOR’s integrated planning effort includes a strategy that accommodates growth while protecting high valued
resources through a well-coordinated wetland permitting program.

Cold Water Stream Improvements for a Golf Course
This ongoing project will restore a critical stretch of Brown’s Creek, a
coldwater fishery. The 1700 lin.ft. reach traverses through a public golf
course and is continuously maintained with little to no buffer along its
bank. As a result, the increasingly warming stream has become over-
widened with no discernible creek features typical of cold water creeks
such as pools or riffles. Temperature Modeling (SSTEMP) completed by
EOR estimates that this project will reduce mean temperature by 0.5° F
and the estimated maximum temperature by 6° F. Construction of this
water quality and trout habitat enhancement project is slated for the Fall
of 2011. The design restores stream continuity and reduces instream
warming while meeting the specific playability expectations of the golf
course.
Baseline Vegetation Surveys To begin the long-term restoration monitoring of over 30,000 acres of eco-
regional prairie and wetlands, a pilot field-testing was conducted of The
Nature Conservancy’s new methodology on a 2,400 acre unit for the Key
Ecological Attribute of species composition of plant communities. Data
acquisition occurred during one seasonal window in mid-August. A 2-
person team logged 90 field hrs. to cover the unit that was divided into 18
plots. Created was a database designed for future GIS link-and-query, long-
term (15-yr) use, and data analysis. Combining the results of meander
surveys with Braun Blanquet cover classes formed a viable method that,
with additional GPS data entry, can be used for restoration management,
such as the planning of site-specific invasive species and the sub-unit
mapping of micro-habitats for rare species recovery.
Afton Natural Resource Inventory & Stewardship Plan Watershed Best Management Practices (BMPs), landowner guidance, and
local community implementation strategies were developed into a
Stewardship Plan based upon EOR’s inventory of natural communities and
public involvement process. Over 6,500 acres and 345 natural communities,
including bluffland farming areas, sloping ravines, and hill slope seepages
comprise the GIS database with attributes such as MLCCS classification,
custom ecological ranking, wildlife habitat ranking, rare features,
groundwater protection, & management class. Landscape units established
in the Stewardship Plan are discussed in terms of riparian buffers, springs
protection, eroding ravines, livestock mgmt., exotic species storm drains,
and fragmentation/greenways.

PROJECT TASKS
Project Kickoff and Data Collection
Initial Project Meeting. One project team member will participate in a project
kickoff meeting with you at the MCWD office to review tasks, schedule, and
communication.
Data Collection. Our team has already worked with MCWD on this site and
does not need to be spend time on initial site reconnaissance. We will utilize
site data previously collected and provided in reports to you by Tony DeMars
of Cross River Consulting. Previously collected data: identification of twelve
separate wetland basins that are land-locked or semi-landlocked depressions, or
with a tile outlet or shallow ditch. Building on the previously collected data, at
the kickoff meeting we will verify with you the new data to be collected that
meets the objectives for design and construction. Anticipated new data:
agricultural drainage features – elevations/locations for tiles, ditches, culverts,
and wetlands; utilities; other easements; key educational features for
incorporating into trail design.
60% Preliminary Ecological Restoration Design
The EOR team proposes an ecological restoration trajectory1 with this project focused on the first four
years ‘initial’ phase to restore soil carbon and water holding capacity and initial phase vegetation. The
baseline vegetation for agricultural areas will consist of simple native grassland seed mixes selected for
dry, mesic, or moist conditions. Previously collected data by Cross River Consulting was used to
determine that prior to European settlement and agricultural drainage, the wetlands identified at the site
were seasonally flooded, ephemeral basins that would have supported zones of shallow marsh and wet
meadow or hardwood swamp.
The EOR team with Cross River Consulting proposes 60% design plans that lay out the approach for
removing or disabling agricultural drainage elements for the wetlands. Based upon existing site data
collected by Cross River Consulting, an exception to this approach will be for the three wetland basins
that are adjacent to the Turtle Creek subdivision. Restoration design for these basins will be focused on
reducing the magnitude and duration of stormwater bounce, and reed canary grass rhizome mat scraping
for vegetation management.
From data collected by Cross River Consulting, existing oak woodland extends for over 3000 linear feet
along the shore of Six Mile marsh. As previously reported to you, this woodland contains buckthorn and
is generally of low quality, can play an important role in restoring much of the adjoining upland
agricultural areas to oak savanna-woodland, and provides a high diversity of habitat conditions including
interior, edge and open areas, each of which support their own suite of plants. The EOR and Cross River
Team proposes to establish during the 4-year initial restoration phase the conditions to encourage oak
savanna establishment adjoining the existing oak woodland corridor.
The 60% plans will include a summary of previously collected data on existing conditions, restoration
trajectory initial phase goals and potential future condition, trail location with sites for educational
features, plan for utilizing partners such as Minnesota Conservation Corps and Tree Trust and volunteer
enthusiasts, schedule, preliminary cost estimate, and plans sheets (site plan, tiles and ditches, wetlands,
utilities, trails, and vegetation. Optional Burroughs Easement. One additional plan sheet shall be
provided to integrate this easement. Meetings. One staff meeting, one public meeting, and one board
meeting are proposed.

Permitting Assistance
The 60% design will be used for coordination with permit and approval staff. The reviewed and approved
preliminary design will be submitted for review and determination of permit requirements. EOR shall
provide necessary permit applications for SWPPP and wetlands. As necessary for a joint wetland permit
application, field delineation of wetland boundaries inside the project area will be performed.
Design Final Construction Documents (90% and 100%)
These plans shall factor in final review and comment, as well as factors identified in meetings with
permitting and approvals staff. After that the cost estimate and bid package will be prepared. This task
includes EOR coordination of the bid process.
Construction Observation
Tile breaking, soil ripping, and prairie grassland seeding shall be the focus of construction observation
and preparation of as-built surveys and plans. Up to 10 observation site visits are anticipated. This task
shall also involve a 3-year warranty inspection of seeding and other plant materials installed, with up to
12 visits. All items listed in your RFP have been factored into our task cost estimate.
Post Construction Monitoring (4 yrs)
The initial phase ecological restoration trajectory will be mapped out through measurements of key
ecological attributes2, KEAs, aspects of structure, function and composition that are key to the integrity of
the prairie wetland ecosystem. This will include measurements of vegetation (cover class estimates of
native vs. non-native, invasive species, and essential species) and abiotic (soil carbon, soil water holding
capacity) system characteristics. As requested in your RFP, EOR will establish a detailed monitoring
protocol, establish quality control and oversight of vegetation management activities, and submit annual
monitoring reports to you for four years. The fourth report will provide an outline of recommended
hydrologic modeling to determine the contribution of soil/vegetation initial restoration to watershed
hydrology restoration.
Vegetation Management Plan
Desired future condition (ecological objectives) for agricultural areas restoration will be the long-term
post-initial restoration objectives for the site. This will be important to keep in mind during the 4-year
initial restoration phase, although it is not essential to know which direction to go at the onset of initial
restoration. Possible future conditions are: open prairie-wetland complex, mixed prairie-wetland-
woodland, and oak savanna, as well as permaculture for selected sites. Any or all of these possible future
conditions would be feasible after the initial restoration phase. Future conditions for existing woodland
communities are assumed to remain woodland.
The initial restoration objective will be the focus of the vegetation management plan. This initial phase of
the ecological restoration trajectory is focused on vegetation establishment for post-agricultural soil
carbon and water holding capacity restoration. The vegetation shall not only serve this function but also
establish an initial vegetation baseline for the longer term desired future condition. The simple mixed
condition prairie grassland seed mix establishment shall be the focus of vegetation management, and will
use several tools, including prescribed burning, overwinter broadcast seeding into microsites, exclosures
for desired tree groves, additional species introductions during the 4-year monitoring/initial restoration
phase that are consistent with the desired future condition. Minnesota Conservation Corps, Tree Trust,
and local volunteer enthusiasts are proposed for much of the implementation of vegetation management.
