We invite you to comment on the draft 401 Water Quality Certification for the Carsonville Township Culvert Replacement Project in Becker County.

Carsonville Township proposes to replace a failed culvert that serves as a crossing over Straight Lake Creek along 520th Avenue. The existing culvert is a 24” x 38’ corrugated metal pipe (CMP) and will be replaced with a 32” x 40’ CMP culvert. Riprap will be placed at the inlet and outlet of the proposed culvert. The culvert will be embedded one foot into the substrate. The culvert replacement will result in 44 linear feet of stream impact. No mitigation is required for the project.

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.
