District 12
Capital Program & Projects
District 12 includes, in Dakota County, the cities of Coates, Hampton, Hastings, Miesville, New Trier, Randolph, Rosemount, South St. Paul, and Vermillion; and the townships of Douglas, Hampton, Marshan, Nininger, Randolph, Ravenna, and Vermillion; in Ramsey County, the portion of the city of Maplewood south of I-94; and in Washington County, the cities of Cottage Grove, Hastings, Newport, St. Paul Park, and the remaining two-thirds of the City of Woodbury west of Woodbury Drive and south of Bailey Road; and the townships of Denmark and Grey Cloud Island.
Capacity and condition assessments are being conducted along with regulatory reviews to identify system-wide lift station upgrades. These upgrades extend the life of facilities, reduce the risk of spills, and improve the safety of staff who operate and maintain lift stations.
This program provides funding to upgrade Environmental Services' ability to measure flows for billing, operational, and planning purposes and standardize meter equipment at similar facilities. Meter improvements include meter rehabilitation or replacement, planning meter installation, and new meter installation.
This program provides funding to complete planning activities and near-term capital improvements (not otherwise included in a separate program) at 8 regional Water Resource Recovery Facilities (WRRF).
The interceptor systems in Blaine, Brooklyn Park, Champlin, Circle Pines, Coon Rapids, Forest Lake, Fridley, Hugo, Lexington, Lino Lakes, Maple Grove, Mounds View, Spring Lake Park, and other north area communities need rehabilitation and/or replacement. The project will rehabilitate existing interceptor facilities, including gravity sewers, forcemains, lift stations, and meter stations.
This program includes miscellaneous projects to rehabilitate failing facilities, address inflow and infiltration (I/I) sources, and address general needs of the interceptor system not programmed into a region- or facility-specific program. This program also includes additional condition assessment work to complement the internal inspections work completed by Operations, odor control improvements, city coordination for street improvement projects, and office space planning and design to accommodate all staff assigned to the Regional Maintenance Facility.
This program provides funding for planning activities needed to support the Council’s overall wastewater reuse initiative.
This program, which provides funding for planning and implementation of a new Hastings Water Resource Recovery Facility (WRRF) at 2445 Ravenna Trail in Hastings is anticipated to close in 2025. The Met Council has determined to reinitiate planning activities to identify and evaluate a broader range of alternatives to serve the southeast region.
