CATEGORICAL EXCLUSION DETERMINATION
FOR THE PROPOSED PROJECTS AT BALTIC, SOUTH DAKOTA
The proposed project will replace the interior water meters at existing service locations. The new meters will reduce water loss, replace outdated equipment, and streamline data collection and billing. The water meters will be installed in Minnehaha County in the Section 5, T103N, R49W and Section 32, T104N, R49W.
Listed below are the reasons for granting a categorical exclusion:
1. The actions are solely directed toward minor rehabilitation of existing facilities, functional replacement of equipment, or towards the construction of a new ancillary facility adjacent or appurtenant to existing facilities.
2. The action does not affect the degree of treatment or capacity of the existing facility.
3. No comments requiring mitigative action were received from any of the five review agencies or through the public participation process.
The estimated cost of the project is $183,000. The city of Baltic will fund the project with a $165,000 Clean Water State Revolving Fund loan (2.25% for 10 years) that will be repaid with water user fees. The city has requested that $82,500 of the State Revolving Fund loan be principal forgiveness. The remaining costs will be funded with $18,000 in local cash. Water rates are $24.65 for 5,000 gallons. Water fees are adequate to pay for the debt service and operation and maintenance costs as a result of this project. The proposed action did not result in any serious local objections at the public hearings nor does it meet any of the criteria for not granting a categorical exclusion as specified in Section 6.505(c) (i) through (iii) of 40 CFR part 6, Subpart E.
The review process did not indicate that significant environmental impacts would result from the proposed projects. Consequently, a preliminary decision not to prepare an EIS has been made. This action is taken, on the basis, of a careful review of the engineering report, environmental information documents, correspondence with responsible governmental agencies, and other supporting data, which are on file at the Division of Financial and Technical Assistance, Water Resources Assistance Program, DENR, Pierre, South Dakota, and are available for public scrutiny at the Baltic City Hall, Baltic South Dakota.
Comments supporting or disagreeing with this decision may be submitted for consideration by DENR after publication of the Categorical Exclusion Determination. After evaluating the comments received, DENR will make a final decision.

APPROVED BY THE

John Pekas, Chairman
ATTEST:
Sandy Kinder, Deputy Auditor
Commissioner Barth also briefed the Commission on a request to compromise DPNO 68685, in the amount of $2,732, by removing half of the amount ($1,366), removing the applicant's ex-husbands name from the account, and placing the $1,366 on DPNO 30435, which is in the name of the ex-husband only. The applicant has other lien accounts under various alias names and is not asking to compromise those amounts. She is only asking that her ex-husband be accountable for his half of the one account which involves the couple's minor child. The Commission previously denied a similar request on 4/21/09, and indicated that they would not split the account until the applicant's divorce was final. The applicant has provided an Amended Judgment and Decree of Divorce finalizing the action. Gordy Swanson, Deputy State's Attorney, reported that each parent can be held responsible for the full amount, but that no more than the total amount can be collected. MOTION by Barth, seconded by Kelly to approve the request to split DPNO 68685. 2 ayes, Hajek, Twedt, and Pekas - nay. Motion fails.
On the recommendation of Hauge Associates, Inc., MOTION by Barth, seconded by Hajek to compromise DPNO 52828 in the amount of $543.00 in full upon payment of $450.00 within 20 days. 5 ayes.
PUBLIC COMMENT
John Boyd, citizen, spoke about his wait at the Treasurer's office while doing business there last week. He offered some suggestions on improving service which included paying a fee for an appointment time and staggering work hours.
Mr. Boyd also reported that he owns Justice Fire and Safety and asked that the service of fire extinguishers be put out for bid so that he could have an opportunity to do business with the County. No bidding is required for this service because the total annual cost does not exceed $25,000.
FEE
Scott Anderson, Planning Director, reported that some concerns over the fee for a Temporary Use Permit have been expressed by the organizers of a fundraising event to be held 6/14/09 at Connie's Coffee & More in Renner. He noted that the fee is set by ordinance and staff has no authority to waive such a fee. He provided a list of permits issued since 2000. Commissioners questioned how many other events have been held without a permit. Mr. Anderson reported that events held at churches or fire halls were considered an accessory use and did not require an additional permit. He also noted that the temporary permit was required for this site because the fundraiser use exceeds the principal use of the site and because of the number of people expected to attend was significant for the size and location of the facility. Gordy Swanson, Deputy State's Attorney, reported that there was no authority to waive the fee. Commissioner Hajek asked that other entities in the same position requesting a waiver of fees make the request to the Commission formally. MOTION by Hajek, seconded by Twedt to waive the fee for this entity. 2 ayes, Barth, Kelly, and Twedt - nay. Motion fails. Commissioners made personal donations to off-set the $250 fee.
GRANT
Gordy Swanson, Deputy State's Attorney, requested authorization to submit an application for the Federal FY2007 Juvenile Accountability Incentive Block Grant to the SD Department of Corrections. The grant award amount is $53,379 and is shared with the City of Sioux Falls. The funds will be used to provide funding support to the following programs: Volunteers of America/Turning Point Street Outreach Center, Glory House Electronic Monitoring Program, MC State's Attorney Juvenile Prosecution Officer, SF Police Department School Resource Officers, SF School District School Probation Officers, Sioux Council BSA Teen Court, and a 1% grant administration fee for Minnehaha County. Commissioners discussed the need for the Juvenile Crime Enforcement Coalition to meet and discuss which programs should receive funding. It was noted that the member list had not been updated in some time. Previously, the Coalition solicited funding proposals from providers who met the grant requirements. Commissioners Kelly and Twedt supported reconstituting the Coalition to look at the community needs prior to next years' application. Sioux Falls Police Chief Doug Barthel reported that due to the significant decrease in JAIBG funding and many requests, it was decided to fund the same programs. Commissioner Pekas supported year-end reporting on what grants were received and how the funding was used. MOTION by Kelly, seconded by Hajek to authorize the submittal of the JAIBG FY2007 Grant Application. 5 ayes.
CONTRACTS
Todd Cheever, JDC Director, presented an agreement with the SD Department of Corrections to house adjudicated juveniles at the JDC at a rate of $215 per juvenile per day. This is an increase from last year's rate of $200. The agreement will be valid from 6/1/09 to 5/31/10. MOTION by Twedt, seconded by Kelly to authorize the Chairman to sign the State of SD Contract/Letter of Agreement for Services with the SD DOC. 5 ayes.
Ken McFarland, Commission Administrative Officer, presented the FY2010 detox funding agreement with the SD Department of Human Services Division of Drug and Alcohol Abuse in the amount of $89,352.20. The state funding is one of three sources for the clinically-managed residential detoxification program. The City of Sioux Falls and Minnehaha County also provide funding to make up the budget of $581,877. MOTION by Hajek, seconded by Twedt to authorize the Chairman to sign the State of South Dakota Department of Human Services Division of Alcohol and Drug Abuse Purchase of Services Agreement. 5 ayes.
DEED
Scott Anderson, Planning Director, requested authorization to accept a Conservator's Deed for a gift of 20 acres of land to be used as a public park to be called "Bucher's Prairie". In August 2008, Mr. Anderson informed the Commission of a proposed land gift from Lyle Bucher. At that time, the Commission authorized Mr. Anderson to continue working towards acceptance of the land gift. Mr. Anderson reported that the legal process is now complete and that the deed documents and plat have been reviewed by Gordy Swanson, Deputy State's Attorney. The donor has also asked that the land be converted to a native prairie within 2 years and that a sign be installed detailing the gift and including the following restrictions: 1) no hunting; 2) no motorized vehicles; 3) all pets must be leashed; and 4) no alcohol allowed on the property. Commissioner Hajek asked about waiving of the reversion clause or designating a timeframe to revert. Commissioner Pekas recognized the generosity of the Bucher family and their desire to preserve the prairie. MOTION by Twedt, seconded by Barth to accept the gift of property to be known as Tract 5 of Bucher's Second Addition, Section 24-T103N-R49W, Minnehaha County. 5 ayes.
GRANT
Lynn DeYoung, Emergency Management Director, reported that his 2009 Homeland Security briefing in January included a request from the state to release the grant funds to the state in order to fund upgrades to the state digital radio system. Mr. DeYoung noted that no project recommendations have been made yet and that local committee members are recommending the release of the 2009 funds back to the state. Commissioners discussed the number of counties in support of releasing their funds for the project and how the state would establish the estimated $5.9 million in funding for the project if not all counties agree to participate. There was also discussion on the legislature not being asked to appropriate funds for the project and their lack of support in providing additional funding for counties. MOTION by Barth, seconded by Hajek to authorize the release of the 2009 Homeland Security Minnehaha County grant funds back to the State of South Dakota for the use in the upgrade of the state radio system. Commissioner Hajek asked that the money be returned to the County if the project does not receive full support from all counties. Commissioner Kelly noted that there was still time to take the issue to the legislature because the state has until 2015 to complete the upgrade. MOTION to amend by Barth, seconded by Hajek to release the funds to the state and add a stipulation that the money be returned to the county if there is not full support. VOTE on the amendment. 5 ayes. Michelle Boyd, Assistant Sheriff, reported that the decision to move forward with the project will be based upon an acceptable majority. That majority will be up to the state. She also stressed the importance of the radios as the lifeline for those in public safety. Sioux Falls Police Chief Doug Barthel reported that there is no other system in place to support their radio traffic. MOTION to amend by Barth, seconded by Hajek to release authorize the release of the 2009 Homeland Security Minnehaha County grant funds back to the State of South Dakota for use to upgrade the state radio system, remove the stipulation to return the money if there is not full support, and add to return the money back to the county if the state does not receive majority support. Vote on the amendment. 5 ayes. VOTE on the motion. 4 ayes, Kelly - nay.
TREASURER
Pam Nelson, Treasurer, reported that she still stands behind her request to fill a vacancy in her office and extend hours, but has been told by her liaison commissioner that the support is not there. Commissioner Twedt did not believe Ms. Nelson was open to other options. Commissioner Hajek supported using an outside agency to review the efficiencies in the Treasurer's office. Commissioner Barth stated there were more than enough employees to staff the windows and that he is tired of the commission being blamed for the windows not being open. Ms. Nelson withdrew her request and stated she did not oppose the review.
OLD BUSINESS
John Boyd, citizen, restated comments made earlier under Public Comment and offered some other insight on ways to improve the efficiency of the office.
NEW BUSINESS
Commissioner Twedt asked that expenses related to the Housing First Project be separated from the Human Services budget for review at budget hearings.
Commissioners recognized Commissioner Pekas on the birth of his son, Benjamin, on June 4th.
Commissioners recognized Faron Wahl, citizen, who was present with his son, Dustin, who has expressed an interest in politics.
MOTION by Barth, seconded by Hajek to adjourn until 9:00 a.m. on Tuesday, June 16, 2009. 5 ayes.
