The threshold when environm ental review is mandatory is reduced to 500 AU when any part of t:-.e facility is located within a "sensitive area''. The iaciiity is wiinin a sensitive area when any of the following apply. •Any part of the facility is within a delineated flood plain (yes to question 2 above) •Any part of the facility is within designated shoreland (yes to question 3 above} •Any part of the facility is within 1,000 feet of a karst feature (yes to question 4 above} •Any part of the facility is within a vulnerable drinking water supply management area •Any part of the facility is within a federal, state, or local wild and scenic river district •Any part of the facility is located within the Minnesota River Project Riverbend area or the Mississippi head waters area Additionally mandatory environmental review is required for "Phased actions". Phased actions are defined under Minnesota law (Minn. R. ch. 4410} as two or more projects located in the same geographic area and constructed sequentially within three years of each other by the sam e proposer. When this is the case, the animal units from all projects are combined to determine if environm ental review is required. The following will assist the MPCA to evaluate if your project qualifies as a "phased action". Do you have ownership interest in another livestock operation that was constructed/expanded within the past three years or are you substantially certain you will be constructing/expanding another livestock operation within the next three years? D Yes 181 No If Yes, how far away (straight-line distance) is it located from the project proposed in this application? miles There are also rule provisions to require com pletion of the environmental review process in the event of a citizen petition or upon the discretion of the MPCA. Please see the MPCA fact sheet entitled "When is Environm ental Review Required for Feedlots" (available on the MPCA website at http://www.pca.state.mn.us/publications/wg-f1-10.pdf) and/or Minn.

All animal numbers and animal sizes used to complete this table should reflect the animal holding capacity of the facility even if the facility does not currently house or propose to house that number of animals. At no time is the number of animals at the facility allowed to exceed the capacity provided below without first obtaining a permit or permit modification. Current Capacity - List the current head count capacity for each animal type in column 3 below. For sites with a permit, this should match the currently permitted number of animals. Next, multiply the AU Factor in column 2 by the number of animals listed in column 3 to get the Current AU Capacity for each animal type (column 4). Finally, add together all AU's in column 4 to get a total at the bottom of the chart. If this application is for a brand-new feedlot site leave columns 3 and 4 blank. (ie. bare piece of ground) Final Capacity-List the final head count capacity for each animal type in column 5 below. This number should include current animals plus or minus any expansion or reduction in each animal type. This should reflect the maximum AU capacity requested with this permit application. Next, multiply the AU Factor in column 2 by the number of animals listed in column 5 to get the Final AU Capacity for each animal type (column 6). Finally, add together all AU's in column 6 to get a total at the bottom of the chart. ADI attl •a1ryc 1. Animal tvoe Mature cow (milked or dry) over 1,000 lbs.

Manure Management Plan (MMP) Requirements when Ownership of Manure is Transferred Feedlot Program Doc Type: Permit Information Form MMP and record keeping requirements for feedlot owners are different when manure ownership is transferred. Manure ownership is not considered to be transferred (i.e., feedlot owner/operator retains ownership) when you answer "yes" to either question: 1.D Yes 181 No Is manure from the feedlot facility applied onto land that is owned, leased, or rented by the feedlot owner/operator? 2.D Yes 181 No For manure application sites not owned, leased, or rented by the feedlot owner/operator, have you as the feedlot owner/operator or employees working under your direction been given control of the crop and nutrient planning decisions, including planning for manure application rates, timing, and methods? If you answered "Yes" to either question, you are retaining ownership of manure, and you should see the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) guidelines "Manure Management Plan Requirements" which describe requirements when manure ownership is not transferred (found on the MPCA website at http://www.pca.state.mn.us/index.php/view-document.html?gid=3537). If you answered "No" to both questions, then you are transferring ownership of your manure and the feedlot operator may use these guidelines to complete a MMP. If only a portion of your manure is considered to have transferred ownership, then use these guidelines for the manure which has transferred ownership, and develop the more comprehensive MMP for the manure which does not have transferred ownership. MMP development The MMP can be developed by answering the questions below or by using other formats that include all required information in Minn. R. ch. 7 02 0.

The threshold when environmental review is mandatory is reduced to 500 AU when any part of the facility is located within a "sensitive area". The facility is within a sensitive area when any of the following apply. •Any part of the facility is within a delineated floodplain (yes to question 3 above) •Any part of the facility is within designated shoreland (yes to question 4 above) •Any part of the facility is within 1,000 feet of a karst feature (yes to question 5 above) •Any part of the facility is within a vulnerable drinking water supply management area •Any part of the facility is within a federal, state, or local wild and scenic river district •Any part of the facility is located within the Minnesota River Project Riverbend area or the Mississippi headwaters area Additionally mandatory environmental review is required for "Phased actions". Phased actions are defined under Minnesota law (Minn. R. ch. 4410) as two or more projects located in the same geographic area and constructed sequentially within three years of each other by the same proposer. When this is the case, the animal units from all projects are combined to determine if environmental review is required. The following will assist the MPCA to evaluate if your project qualifies as a "phased action". Do you have ownership interest in another livestock operation that was constructed/expanded within the past three years or are you substantially certain you will be constructing/expanding another livestock operation within the next three years? D Yes ffJ No If Yes, how far away (straight-line distance) is it located from the project proposed in this application? miles There are also rule provisions to require completion of the environmental review process in the event of a citizen petition or upon the discretion of the MPCA. Please see the MPCA fact sheet entitled "When is Environmental Review Required for Feedlots" (available on the MPCA website at https://www.pca.state.mn.us/quick-links/environmental-review and/or Minn.

At no time is the number of animals at the facility allowed to exceed the capacity provided below without first obtaining a permit or permit modification. Current Capacity -List the current head count capacity for each animal type in column 3 below. For sites with a permit, this should match the currently permitted number of animals. Next, multiply the AU Factor in column 2 by the number of animals listed in column 3 to get the Current AU Capacity for each animal type ( column 4 ). Finally, add together all AU's in column 4 to get a total at the bottom of the chart. If this application is for a brand-new feedlot site leave columns 3 and 4 blank. (ie. bare piece of ground) Final Capacity -List the final head count capacity for each animal type in column 5 below. This number should include current animals plus or minus any expansion or reduction in each animal type. This should reflect the maximum AU capacity requested with this permit application. Next, multiply the AU Factor in column 2 by the number of animals listed in column 5 to get the Final AU Capacity for each animal type ( column 6).

The following is from an email received form Dr. Ala L. Lysyk Smith dated Thursday, December 14, 2017 – Dear County Commissioners: My name is Dr. Ala L. Lysyk Smith and I am requesting a pardon of the tax penalty assessed to me due to an inadvertently missed tax payment for the 2nd half of 2017. R#71004990746000 was missed being paid while I paid a group of other property taxes on 10/12/2017. Page | 4 Reason: In August 2017, my entire identification portfolio was stolen, including all of my business and personal bank account numbers. I had set up BILL Pay payments for the 2nd half property taxes due. However, all BILL Pay accounts were deleted due to closure of the stolen accounts. In a hurried fashion, I promptly went directly to the County Treasurer’s office and paid all of the R #’s I owed on, but somehow, this one was missed. All others were paid by check for a total sum of 2067.00. I received a notice “courtesy reminder” on 12-31-17, almost 2 full months past the tax deadline. In that 2 month period I accrued, unknowingly, 106.96 in penalty. Please consider pardoning this penalty due to the scenario described above. When you review my 22 years of records, you will see that not only is my credit superior, but I do not neglect payment of nay taxes knowingly. I look forward to your response and consideration, Regards, Dr. Ala L. Lysyk Smith NOTE: Full payment of tax and penalty were made with Lori at the County Treasurer’s office on 12-14-2017. 8.
