Rice Lake surface drain permit to follow prior process; Board to notify landowners of public meeting
Summary
Because the Rice Lake application was submitted before April 1, 2026, it must be processed under the prior administrative rules requiring a public meeting. The Board authorized HDR and the Board attorney to prepare a meeting notice to Rice Lake landowners.
Attorney Bryan Van Grinsven summarized the administrative steps required because the Rice Lake surface drain application was submitted to the Department of Water Resources before April 1, 2026 and must therefore proceed under the prior, more complex permitting process.
Roger Kluck moved and Dale Dohms seconded a motion authorizing HDR and the Board attorney to prepare and issue a meeting notice to Rice Lake landowners; the motion passed 5-0. The minutes do not record the meeting date; the action is to notify landowners and begin the public meeting process required by the older administrative rules.
