City of Ranier (dock expansion) - 401 Water Quality Certification
We invite you to comment on the draft 401 Water Quality Certification for the City of Ranier's community dock improvement project.
The City of Ranier proposes to replace and expand its existing boat dock. The primary walkway for the dock would be 20 feet wide and extend 266 feet from the shoreline. The T-section of the dock would be parallel to the shoreline and would be 15 feet wide by 199 feet long. The proposed dock would have six 46-foot-long by 6-foot-wide and two 28-foot-long by 6-foot-wide floating docks connected to the main dock with gangways. With the new dock installation, the littoral drift would be improved and would restore the natural transport of sediments along the surrounding shoreline.
A 401 Water Quality Certification is required when an individual, business, or property owner proposes construction-related activities near a navigable lake, river, stream, or adjacent wetland. The MPCA reviews projects to ensure they will not violate Minnesota's more protective water quality standards. The 401 certification becomes an enforceable component of the associated federal license or permits issued under the Clean Water Act.
