5.34 Kramer Pond Watershed Management Plan

5.34.1 General Information

Kramer Pond and its entire tributary

watershed lie within the City of Lake

Elmo (see Figure 5.34-1). Kramer

Pond is a 9-acre wetland located north

of the I-94 frontage road, between

Keats Avenue North (CSAH 19) and

Lake Elmo Avenue North (CSAH 17),

near the south border of the City of

Lake Elmo.

One development is located adjacent

to Kramer Pond on the northeast side.

The remainder of the watershed is

currently occupied by agricultural land

use and undeveloped space, although

some developments are near

construction on the western edge of

the watershed. Future (2030)

estimated land use calls single family

residential development north of

Kramer Pond, multi-option

development along I-94, and

commercial development near the

intersection of I-94 and Keats Avenue

(CSAH 19). Figure 5.34-2 shows the

current (2010) and future (2030)

estimated land use within the Kramer

Pond watershed.

There is no public access to Kramer

Pond. Around 1969, the landowner

constructed a berm across the wetland

for tractor access to the fields north of

the pond. The berm causes the

northeastern lobe of the wetland (in

subwatershed KRM-3) to be drier than

the western portion of the wetland (in

subwatershed KRM-1, see Figure

5.34-1).

5.34.2 Water Quality Management Plan

The VBWD classified and will manage Kramer Pond as a Low Priority waterbody (see Section 4.1 –

Water Quality) due to the lack of public access and is classification as a wetland by the Minnesota

Pollution Control Agency (MPCA). This is consistent with its classification in the 2005 VBWD Plan.

In the VBWD 1995 Plan, Kramer Pond was classified as a Level V (wetland) waterbody.

The water quality of Kramer Pond is generally poor. The VBWD has a non-degradation water quality

policy which sets “action triggers” for all of its major waterbodies. Section 4.1 – Water Quality

discusses the action triggers in more detail. Action triggers for VBWD lakes consider the following

water quality parameters (summer average) relative to MPCA water quality standards and prior water

quality data (i.e., trend analysis):

Secchi disc depth

Total phosphorus

Chlorophyll a

Specific water quality implementation tasks for Kramer Pond include the following.

1. The VBWD will cooperate with other entities to monitor the water quality of Kramer Pond at

the interval(s) specified in Section 4.1 – Water Quality for Low Priority waterbodies. As for

all Low Priority waterbodies, the VBWD will perform additional monitoring or other actions

on a case-by-case (see Table 4.1-6).

The VBWD will evaluate the average summertime water quality (total phosphorus,

chlorophyll a, and Secchi disc transparency) and compare it to water quality standards (if

applicable) and applicable action triggers (described in Section 4.1.7.5).

2. The VBWD will cooperate with other entities in support of macrophyte management efforts.

VBWD efforts may include:

point-intercept surveys of aquatic vegetation

preparation of lake vegetation management plans (LVMP)

completion of Invasive Aquatic Plant Management (IAPM) Permit applications

design of herbicide treatment programs

participation in meetings with MDNR staff

other technical analysis

3. The VBWD will continue to implement its Rules and Regulations (2013, as amended) in the


Kramer Pond watershed. The VBWD Rules address water quality performance standards for

development and redevelopment projects, as well as required vegetated buffers around

VBWD lakes, streams, and wetlands. The VBWD Rules and Regulations are included in this

Plan as Appendix A-4.5.

5.34.2.1 Water Chemistry

Water quality sampling was conducted on Kramer Pond in 2003, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2012, and 2013.

Water quality samples are typically analyzed for total phosphorus and chlorophyll a, while Secchi

disc transparency is measured in the field at the time of sampling (see Appendix A-4.1 – Water

Quality Background Information).

The most recent 10-year average summer water quality data is presented in Table 5.34-1 and

illustrated in Figure 5.34-3.

While water quality in Kramer Pond fluctuates annually, water quality has been consistently poor

since monitoring began in 2003. Summer average Secchi disc transparency was less than (i.e. worse

than) 0.7 meters in all years measured. The worst water quality occurred in 2012, when Secchi disc

transparency was less than 0.2 meters, summer average chlorophyll a was over 300 ug/L (the highest

observed) and summer average total phosphorus was approximately 800 ug/L (the second highest

observed value). Chlorophyll a declined sharply in 2013, decreasing from over 300 ug/L to less than

10 ug/L (see Figure 5.34-3).

The most recent 10-years of data identify no statistically significant trends in total phosphorus,

chlorophyll a, or Secchi disc transparency.

5.34.2.2 Biological Data

Various types of biological data have been compiled and evaluated for Kramer Pond, in addition to

physical and chemical parameters. Macrophyte (large aquatic plants), phytoplankton (non-rooted

floating plants – algae), zooplankton (microscopic aquatic animals), and fisheries data provide

insight into the ecological quality of a waterbody. Section 4.2 (Water Quality Background

Information) provides more information about the importance of fisheries and other biological data.

2015 Valley Branch Watershed District Watershed Management Plan Kramer Pond Watershed Management Plan Barr Engineering Company .34-4 P:\Mpls\23 MN\82\2382174\WorkFiles\2015 VBWD Plan\Final\Section 5.34 - Kramer Pond.doc

The Kramer Pond fishery is not managed by the MDNR and there are no stocking or surveying

programs in place. Kramer Pond does not have a fisheries-use classification, and no fish consumption

advisories have been issued for the pond. The MDNR’s Lakefinder website includes the most current

data on Kramer Pond and is available at: http://www.dnr.state.mn.us/lakefind/lake.html?id=82011700

The VBWD conducted macrophyte (large aquatic plant) surveys on June 9, 2003, August 18, 2003,

June 4, 2009, and June 5, 2012. Appendix A-5.34 includes the 2003, 2009, and 2012 macrophyte

survey information. The VBWD collects macrophyte data to identify the conditions of plant growth

throughout the lake. Macrophytes are the primary producers in the aquatic food chain, converting the

basic chemical nutrients in water and soil into plant matter through photosynthesis, which becomes

food for all other aquatic life. While macrophytes can negatively impact the recreational use of a

water body, they are critical to the ecosystem as fish and wildlife habitat.

In 2003 and 2009, the pond’s moderately diverse plant community consisted of five to eight

individual species. In both 2003 surveys, plant growth was limited to depths less than two or three

feet due to shading by the algal community. Plant species observed in Kramer pond are consistent

with the pond’s poor water transparency and include three turbidity tolerant native species, water

celery (Vallisneria americana), Canada waterweed (Elodea canadensis), and coontail

(Ceratophyllum demersum) (Borman et al., 1997). In 2012 the water level in Kramer Pond was high

and no macrophyte species were observed during the survey.

All plant species observed in Kramer Pond are common to Minnesota ponds and lakes and provide

good habitat for the fish and aquatic animals living within the pond. No non-native, exotic species

were noted in the two surveys.

There are no phytoplankton (microscopic plants), or zooplankton (microscopic animals) data for

Kramer Pond.

5.34.3 Water Quantity Management Plan

Kramer Pond is a landlocked basin and is often split into two water bodies. The two parts of the pond

in subwatershed KRM-1 (see Figure 5.34-1) are at an elevation of about 910, according to

Washington County’s 2000 two-foot interval topographic map. The two ponds become one larger

pond at higher elevations, approximately Elevation 911.2. At Elevation 910.15, water will flow into

the large wetland area northeast of the two ponds in subwatershed KRM-3 (see Figure 5.34-1). When

this combined water body reaches Elevation 911.64, water will flow northeast from Kramer Pond to a

1.2-acre pond located in subwatershed KRM-6 (see Figure 5.34-1). The ultimate overflow from the

combined ponding area is the low point in Lake Elmo Avenue North, at Elevation 916, based on

Washington County’s 2000 topography. If Kramer Pond were to overflow, the water would flow to

Rose Lake.

The 100-year flood elevation for Kramer Pond has been managed by the VBWD at different levels

throughout the history of the VBWD. In the 1987 VBWD water management plan, the 100-year flood

level of Kramer Pond was shown as Elevation 911 (NGVD29 datum). This elevation was based on


the belief that there are culverts under Lake Elmo Avenue North (CSAH 17) at the low point in the

road. However, during VBWD’s review of The Forest development adjacent to Kramer Pond, it was

determined that there are no culverts under Lake Elmo Avenue North (CSAH 17). Therefore, the

overflow point became the low point in Lake Elmo Avenue North, and the 100-year flood elevation

was computed to be Elevation 916. At this elevation, a home adjacent to the 1.2-acre pond northeast

of Kramer Pond would be flooded. The 1995 VBWD water management plan listed the 100-year

flood level of Kramer Pond at Elevation 915.8.

In 2003, Washington County contracted with the VBWD to establish a “Base Flood Elevation” that

could be used for new Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Flood Insurance Rate Maps

(FIRMs). Through this detailed study, the VBWD determined that the 1% probability flood level

(i.e., the 100-year flood level) for Kramer Pond is Elevation 914.0 (NAVD88), which the VBWD has

adopted as the 100-year flood elevation for Kramer Pond. The 100-year flood level for Kramer Pond

included on FEMA’s Washington County Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) is also set at Elevation

914 (NAVD88 datum). At this elevation, there still appears to be one home within Kramer Pond’s

100-year floodplain.

In 2013, the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) published Atlas 14,

Volume 8 (see Section 4.7.6). Atlas 14 contains updated precipitation data for Minnesota and

supersedes data sources used to establish the VBWD and FEMA 100-year flood elevations within the

Kramer Pond subwatershed. Over the next several years, the VBWD will update its hydrologic -

hydraulic modeling of major subwatersheds, including Kramer Pond. Updated modeling will

incorporate the most recent precipitation data (see Section 4.7.7) which may increase 100-year flood

levels relative to the existing levels.

VBWD has no plans to control Kramer Pond water levels. The VBWD has monitored water levels on

Kramer Pond since 2008 (see Figure 5.34-4). The VBWD will continue to monitor water levels on

Kramer Pond as staff or volunteer time and access allow.

5.34.4 Groundwater

Water that seeps from Kramer Pond could contribute to the groundwater feeding Valley Creek. More

information regarding groundwater regional ground water flow is described in Section 3.7.

Groundwater management strategies of the VBWD are described in Section 4.2. Information

regarding groundwater contributions to Valley Creek is described in the Valley Creek subwatershed

management plan (see Section 5.20).
