26 8 the progress and results of projects funded with moneys
26 9 appropriated under this section.
26 10 The department shall recommend funding for lake restoration
26 11 projects that are designed to achieve the following goals:
26 12 a. Ensure a cost=effective, positive return on investment
26 13 for the citizens of Iowa.
26 14 b. Ensure local community commitment to lake and watershed
26 15 protection.
26 16 c. Ensure significant improvement in water clarity,
26 17 safety, and quality of Iowa lakes.
26 18 d. Provide for a sustainable, healthy, functioning lake
26 19 system.
26 20 e. Result in the removal of the lake from the impaired
26 21 waters list.
26 22 2. The process and criteria the department shall utilize
26 23 to recommend funding for lake restoration projects shall be as
26 24 follows:
26 25 a. The department shall develop an initial list of not
26 26 more than thirty=five significant public lakes to be
26 27 considered for funding based on the feasibility of each lake
26 28 for restoration and the use or potential use of the lake, if
26 29 restored. The list shall include lake projects under active
26 30 development that the department shall recommend be given
26 31 priority for funding so long as progress toward completion of
26 32 the projects remains consistent with the goals of this
26 33 section.
26 34 b. The department shall meet with representatives of
26 35 communities where lakes on the initial list are located to
27 1 provide an initial lake restoration assessment and to explain
27 2 the process and criteria for receiving lake restoration
27 3 funding. Communities with lakes not included on the initial
27 4 list may petition the director of the department for a
27 5 preliminary lake restoration assessment and explanation of the
27 6 funding process and criteria. The department shall work with
27 7 representatives of each community to develop a joint lake
27 8 restoration action plan. At a minimum, each joint action plan
27 9 shall document the causes, sources, and magnitude of lake
27 10 impairment, evaluate the feasibility of the lake and watershed
27 11 restoration options, establish water quality goals and a
27 12 schedule for attainment, assess the economic benefits of the
27 13 project, identify the sources and amounts of any leveraged
27 14 funds, and describe the community's commitment to the project,
27 15 including local funding. The community's commitment to the
27 16 project may include moneys to fund a lake diagnostic study and
27 17 watershed assessment, including development of a TMDL (total
27 18 maximum daily load).
27 19 c. Each joint lake restoration plan shall comply with the
27 20 following guidelines:
27 21 (1) Biologic controls will be utilized to the maximum
27 22 extent, wherever possible.
27 23 (2) If proposed, dredging of the lake will be conducted to
27 24 a mean depth of at least ten feet to gain water quality
27 25 benefits unless a combination of biologic and structural
27 26 controls is sufficient to assure water quality targets will be
27 27 achieved at a shallower average water depth.
27 28 (3) The costs of lake restoration will include the
27 29 maintenance costs of improvements to the lake.
27 30 (4) Delivery of phosphorous and sediment from the
27 31 watershed will be controlled and in place before lake
27 32 restoration begins. Loads of phosphorous and sediment, in
27 33 conjunction with in=lake management, will meet or exceed the
27 34 following water quality targets:
27 35 (a) Clarity. A four=and=one=half=foot secchi depth will
28 1 be achieved fifty percent of the time from April 1 through
28 2 September 30.
28 3 (b) Safety. Beaches will meet water quality standards for
28 4 recreational use.
28 5 (c) Biota. A diverse, balanced, and sustainable aquatic
28 6 community will be maintained.
28 7 (d) Sustainability. The water quality benefits of the
28 8 restoration efforts will be sustained for at least fifty
28 9 years.
28 10 d. The department shall evaluate the joint action plans
28 11 and prioritize the plans based on the criteria required in
28 12 this section. The department's annual lake restoration plan
28 13 and report shall include the prioritized list and the amounts
28 14 of state and other funding the department recommends for each
28 15 lake restoration project. The department may seek public
28 16 comment on its recommendations prior to submitting the plan
28 17 and report to the general assembly.
