Meeting Outline
- Project Update
– Summarize major themes from the first public meeting – Recap 2014 monitoring
- Preliminary Modeling and Universe of
Options
– Overview of model calibration to 2014 flooding – Preliminary results of 100-year flood event

Themes from First Community Meeting
- How were you impacted by 2014 flood?
– Damage to structure, shoreline, lawn/yard – Sandbagging and pumping for extended period – Road closures, loss of recreational use
- What issues, concerns, possible remedies
would you like considered?
– Upstream storage and management of flow* – Modification to outlets/outlet operation – Water quality concerns – Flood-proof homes and use other storage basins

Themes from First Community Meeting
- For you, the most important outcome of this
study would be…
– Better management of lake levels; never let water to get to 904.5’ – More proactive flood response; estimate each spring if Prior Lake is going to flood – Slow down upstream water/manage inflows – Improving/protecting long-term water quality – Don’t exacerbate downstream (of PLO) impacts

Themes from First Community Meeting
- Other comments/suggested strategies
– Flood-proofing/buyouts – Enlarge Prior Lake outlet channel or provide new pipe – Re-establish overflow under TH13 – Emergency pumping to Campbell Lake/other basins – Let water out of PLO sooner—901 feet MSL or permanently/temporarily lower control elevation – Control Spring Lake outlet/permanent dam – Upstream storage (Buck Lake and CD13)

“What-if” Mitigation Strategies used in Modeling Scenarios
18
- Increase upper watershed storage
– Utilized 1,000 ac-ft. storage by restricting flow at 3 locations
- Increase Spring Lake storage
– Raised peak elevation by 1.2 ft. to 915.1’ – Raised peak elevation by 2.0 ft to 915.9’
- Modify Prior Lake outlet structure
– Increase flow to 65 cfs (and 85 cfs) when lake level is > 902.5’
- Combination of three scenarios (upper watershed
storage, Spring at 914.3’ & 85 cfs from Prior Lake)

Selection Matrix for Flood Mitigation Options
- Criteria that will be summarized for each
alternative:
– Life-cycle costs—incl. construction, O&M, loss
- f property use/value
– Benefit—measured by flood peak reduction – Other benefits or impacts—water quality improvement(s), wetlands, habitat, etc. – Feasibility of reduction mechanisms—legal authority, regulatory controls, education, eligibility for outside funding, readiness
