BUtTE su COON RAPID>i, MN bb488 (f f 81780.6/01 ' As your Sub-Committee works on the Water Resources Development Act of 1992, I would like to ask your assistance for what I hope you will see as a modest request toward slapping the erosion of a retaining wall system m Stillwater, Minnesota. My office has been working closely with the Army Corps of Engineers - St. Paul District Office and the City of Stillwater to obtain technical assistance through 19~b Flood Control Act, .Section 14 Emergency streambank and shoreline protection (a Continuing Authorities Program). Currently, we are anxiously awaiting the announcement of a feasibility study by the North Central Division US. Army Corps of Engineers. Mr. Chairman,' I am writing you today because the gmblem we are facing is serious enough to warrant action above and beyond the Section 14 program. First of all, Section 14 has a $500,000 statutory Federal cost limitation. Engineers have estunated that it will cost $1.2 million. to repair the existing retaining wall system and another $800,000 to extend the wall system which would protect the City of Stillwater's trunk sewer line and lift stations. Under this funding Ievei the City of Stillwater would be left to finance 75% of the project, a prico tag the Ciry can not afford to pick-up. Furthermore, the aver wall, the lift bridge connecting Minnesota and Wisconsin, Lowell Park, and the. busy commercial section of downtown Stillwater arc all listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Erosion of the wall system threatens each of these hisiatiC markers. _w The wall system and bridge hold up more than }ust history, mare specifically, the Army Corps of Engineers concluded in a preliminary report that, "failure of the wall could lead to temporary loss of the only bridge across the St. Croix River between Hudson and 4sceoia, Wisconsin a distance of 28 miles." Stillwater medical services nrnvi~u a.w.w~n...• 1~snLL ....~ 1`.,. ~____ ~~n , . ~ i i One final oin th ~~ Arm C s of En ' eers allure is not the result of inadequate ma ntenanc~ by the cioty~." And sous you~can~see time attd water have taken their toll on Stillwater's prQtecdve wall system and could Iead to econaraic and historical damage at any time in the ~,noxt two years. Action must be taken now on this retaining wall system, built 55 year ago as a WPP~project. In light of the econ'~omic and historic importance of the wall system, I request that this year's Water Resources Development Act include authorization for Stillwater's retaining wall system. Mr.'i Chairman, this project is tog priority for myself and my constituents and I thank yc~u for your attention. If there are any questions which you or your staff hive about this project, I would be pleased to answer them.
