The District Engineer, Omaha District, is evaluating an application from the City of Minot for a stormwater improvement project to alleviate flooding in the west US-83 ditch between 27th Avenue NW and 30th Avenue NW. Minot Storm Sewer District 124 is also referred to as the Polaris Park Drainage Basin. The City proposes to grade a portion of the US-85 ditch to slope to a new storm sewer inlet that would cross under US-85 to an existing storm sewer pipe that crosses under Minot International Airport property. The pipe would be extended to the Stonebridge Pond, which would be converted from a retention pond/mitigation site to a retention pond. The outlet would be upgraded to meter flows from the Pond to Livingston Coulee. The project would permanently impact 2.5 acres of wetlands and other waters. The project/review area is located in Section 1, Township 155 North, Range 83 West; centered on Latitude 48.269368° North and Longitude -101.274991° West; in Minot, Ward County, North Dakota.
