First, �.et me heap public praise on the St. Paul City Council when it urged in the resolution that administrative agencies and departments of the city be made availablP to assist in the discovery of new solutions to the problem created by depositing spoil materials dredged from the channel� . Only by a sgirit of cooperation from both sides are we going to be able to whip this problem without causing undue damage to either the economic lifeline or to the environment of the beautiful Mississippi River Valley. My office was in touch today with Colonel Rodney Cox, �hief Engineer of the Corps, who advised that Judge Doyle is expected to deliver an Amenc�ed Order Tuesday, Maq 7. I strongly support the Corps in reaching an agreement where emergency dredging is permitted. Colonel Cox advised mp office that there are at least five areas between Brownsville and Prairie Island that are in need of dredging at this time to remove the threat of barges running aground. Last Tuesday, Maq 2, I appeared in7person before a House Public Wcrks Appropriations Subcommittee urging that a �1 million study be included in the 1975 federal budget to find solutions to the current problems of Mississippi River dredging. As you may know, this is a proposal advanced by the tsinnesota-Wisconsin Boundary Area Commission. . � - - . � . Ms. Rose Mix riay 6, 1974 Page 2 I appreciate learning of your interest in this matter and if there is anything further I can do to help resolve this nagging problem, please do not hesitate to contact me.

ZO51 O May 14, 1974 Miss Rose Mix City Clerk City of St. Paul Office of the City Clerk 386 City Hall St. Paul, Minnesota 55102 Dear Miss Mix: Thank you for your recent letter and attached resolution regarding dredging activities on the Mississigpi River. I have been working very closely with local officials of the Corps, the Upper Mississippi Waterway Association and other concerned people attempting to bring a resolution on this matter. . I was recently notified that Judge Doyle on May 7th issued an emergency dredging order that will permit spot dredging on the Mississippi until the completion of the EIS. I am also told that a representative of the Wisconsin DNR can ride on the dredge and direct the Corps on the place- ment of the dredged materials. I am pleased with this decision and am hopeful that it will work successfully. With warm regards, Sincerely, ��9�� � Walter F. Mondale
