Currently, Springfield waterways routinely do not meet federal and state water quality safety standards for human and <br />aquatic life. In addition to Federal Clean Water Act requirements to improve stormwater quality, the City Council has established aten-year target goal for at <br />.least 75% of Springfield's waterways to meet water quality standards. Protected riparian areas are necessary to achieve this objective and some riparian <br />protection has been established in the Development Code. In cases where riparian area. protection poses disproportionate constraints on private land owners, <br />this funding will enable the City to identify priority areas for protection and to compensate property owners. <br />Relation to Plans: <br />This project supports implementation of the City Development Code, the stormwater Management Plan, the stormwater Management Plan, the stormwater <br />Facilities Master Plan, along with compliance with the Clean Water Act and Endangered Species Act. <br />..Maintenance Impacts: <br />Any City stormwater management facilities located within the acquired riparian areas will require increased maintenance. Any on-going land management <br />responsibilities will also require increased maintenance. Projects have not yet been selected. Cooperation with Willamalane and with environmental <br />organizations, such as is being planned on the Oxbow property, may mitigate City responsibilities and costs. <br />Page 111 - 7 <br />
