4615 Moorland Avenue | Proposed change to street façade
The proposed change to the street façade adheres to Edina’s Historic Country Club District’s Plan of
Treatment as it will maintain the historic character of the home.
The roof of the garage dormer is being raised and extended to the north to allow for better consistent
head height and function within, and to cover the entire length of the bathroom. The current ceiling
height at the window is 6’-2” and our proposed height is 7’-7”. The existing dormer wall location facing
the street will remain, while the north wall will be extended 10” and the new roof eave will be raised 1’-
6” to align with an existing fascia. The new window will be similar in size, match the jamb width of the
existing window, but will have a higher head height that better fits the scale of the taller dormer face.
This new dormer roof and walls will match both the materiality and details of the current home.
This proposed change does not alter the existing building footprint of the home, nor does it alter any
other portion of the existing roof, roofing materials, and wall materials.

Certificate of Appropriateness: 4615 Moorland Avenue-Changes to Street Facing
Facade
Information / Background:
The subject property, 4615 Moorland Avenue is located on the east side of Moorland Avenue,
south of Bridge Street and north of Country Club Road. The existing home on the property is a
two-story colonial revival style home built in 1940.
The Certificate of Appropriateness request includes changes to the street facing façade associated
with an interior remodel project at 4615 Moorland Avenue. Proposed changes to the street façade
include changes to an existing dormer over the garage on the east elevation. The COA request
would raise the height of the dormer and extend it to the north.
Primary Issues:
There are proposed changes to the street facing façade which is why the proposed project requires
a Certificate of Appropriateness.
Preservation Consultant Robert Vogel’s Comments:
“I have reviewed the plans and project narrative provided with the COA application for alteration of the
street facing façade of the house located at 4615 Moorland Avenue in the Country Club District. The
subject property is a 2-story residence constructed in 1940. For preservation planning purposes, it is
classified as an example of the Colonial Revival style. It is not individually eligible for heritage landmark
designation (its significance was evaluated as “complementary” in the 1980 National Register of Historic
Places nomination form); however, because it was constructed during the Country Club District’s period of
historical significance (1924-1944), it is considered a contributing heritage preservation resource for COA
review purposes. The owner proposes to construct an addition to the existing front-loading garage that will
match the exterior detailing found on the older parts of the house.
STAFF REPORT Page 2
In my opinion, the proposed work will not have an adverse effect on the historic character of the house or
the integrity of the district as a whole and will require minimal alteration of the existing structure (which has
already been altered from its as-built appearance). The Secretary of the Interior’s standards for
rehabilitation (which are the required basis for COA decisions) do not require restoration to accurately
recover the original form and details of the property as it appeared during the district’s period of
significance. No significant architectural character defining features will be destroyed or damaged by the
proposed work and, based on the architect’s plans submitted with the COA application form, the new
construction appears to be compatible with the size, scale, proportions, and materials of the original house.
I recommend approval of the COA.”
Staff Recommendation & Findings:
Staff concurs with Consultant Vogel’s evaluation of the proposed plans at 4615 Moorland Avenue,
also recommending approval of the Certificate of Appropriateness request.
Findings supporting the recommendation include:
The information provided supporting the subject Certificate of Appropriateness is consistent
with the Country Club District Plan of Treatment.
The proposed Certificate of Appropriateness meets the Secretary of the Interior’s standards
for rehabilitation.
MEMORANDUM
TO: Joyce Repya, Senior Planner

DATE: March 28, 2022
SUBJECT: COA for 4615 Moorland Avenue
I have reviewed the plans and project narrative provided with the COA application for alteration
of the street facing façade of the house located at 4615 Moorland Avenue in the Country Club
District. The subject property is a 2-story residence constructed in 1940. For preservation
planning purposes, it is classified as an example of the Colonial Revival style. It is not
individually eligible for heritage landmark designation (its significance was evaluated as
“complementary” in the 1980 National Register of Historic Places nomination form); however,

Proposed I-494 Improvements Draft-Programmatic Agreement
I-494: Airport to Highway 169 Project 1 REVIEW DRAFT 1
54 USC 306108 Programmatic Agreement
PROGRAMMATIC AGREEMENT
BETWEEN
THE FEDERAL HIGHWAY ADMINISTRATION
AND
THE MINNESOTA STATE HISTORIC PRESERVATION OFFICE
REGARDING THE
INTERSTATE 494: AIRPORT TO HIGHWAY 169 PROJECT,
HENNEPIN COUNTY, MINNESOTA
Whereas, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) plans to provide Federal-Aid Highway
Program funds to the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) to carry out
improvements to Interstate 494 (I-494) in the cities of Edina, Bloomington, and Richfield,
including replacement of six Interstate bridges, reconstruction of interchanges, installation of
noise and retaining walls, construction of lanes and a pedestrian bridge, and reconfiguration of
several access ramps and adjacent frontage roads, and this project is known as the I-494:
Airport to Highway 169 Project (I-494 PROJECT); and
Whereas, MnDOT is developing a hybrid Environmental Assessment for the purposes of
compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) that will address the entire I-494
PROJECT corridor from approximately 24th Avenue to West Bush Lake Road/78th Street (see I-
494 PROJECT Footprint in Appendix A), including the currently funded improvements from
approximately East Bush Lake Road to 12th Avenue (First Construction Project [S.P. 2785-424]),
as well as subsequent construction projects as they are developed; and
Whereas, review of the I-494 PROJECT has been conducted under the terms of the
Programmatic Agreement Among the Federal Highway Administration; the Minnesota State
Historic Preservation Office; the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation; the Department of
the Army, Corps of Engineers, St. Paul District; and the Minnesota Department of Transportation
Regarding Implementation of the Federal-Aid Highway Program in Minnesota (as amended)
(Statewide Agreement), various stipulations of which are incorporated by reference, and the
MnDOT Cultural Resources Unit (CRU) has conducted the review on behalf of FHWA pursuant
to their delegation of authority described in Stipulation 2.I of the Statewide Agreement; and
Whereas, MnDOT CRU has determined that the I-494 PROJECT, including the First Construction
Project (S.P. 2785-424) and subsequent construction projects, is an FHWA undertaking that has
the potential to affect historic properties listed in, or eligible for inclusion in, the National
Register of Historic Places (National Register) and is therefore subject to review under Section
106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (54 USC 306108) and its implementing regulations
at 36 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 800, as well as under the terms of the Statewide
Agreement; and
I-494: Airport to Highway 169 Project 2 REVIEW DRAFT 1
54 USC 306108 Programmatic Agreement
Whereas, MnDOT CRU, pursuant to its responsibilities under Stipulation 3.C of the Statewide
Agreement, and in consultation with the Minnesota State Historic Preservation Office
(MnSHPO), has defined the First Construction Project’s (S.P. 2785-424) Area of Potential Effects
(APE) as depicted in Appendix B.1 and this agreement allows for delineation of APEs for
subsequent construction projects; and
Whereas, under the terms of the Exemption Regarding Historic Preservation Review Process for
the Interstate Highway System (70 Federal Register [FR] 11928-11931, March 10, 2005), FHWA
does not need to consider the effects of its undertaking on components essential to the
operation of the Interstate Highway System, including but not limited to the Interstate roadbed,
engineering features, bridges, tunnels, rest stops, interchanges, off-ramps, and on-ramps; and
no Interstate components within the I-494 PROJECT Footprint were included on Minnesota’s list
of exceptions to the exemption; and
Whereas, FHWA and MnDOT CRU, in consultation with MnSHPO and pursuant to
36 CFR 800.14(b)(1)(ii) and 36 CFR 800.14(b)(3), have elected to execute this project-specific
Programmatic Agreement (Project PA) because project-specific circumstances warrant a
departure from the normal Section 106 process and the consultation process described in the
Statewide Agreement; and
Whereas, due to the nature of the hybrid Environmental Assessment and consideration of
alternatives, FHWA and MnDOT CRU must phase identification and evaluation of historic
properties and application of the criteria of adverse effects in accordance with
36 CFR 800.4(b)(2) and 36 CFR 800.5(a)(3), respectively, and this Project PA outlines a process
for identification and evaluation of historic properties, assessment of effects, and resolution of
adverse effects for each construction project within the I-494 PROJECT footprint; and
Whereas, FHWA recognizes it has a unique legal relationship with Federally recognized
American Indian tribes (Tribes) set forth in the Constitution of the United States, treaties,
statutes, and court decisions, and that consultation with Tribes must, therefore, recognize the
government-to-government relationship between the Federal government and the Tribes; and
Whereas, pursuant to 36 CFR 800.2(c)(2)(ii) and the agreements in effect between FHWA and
certain Tribes, upon initiation of the Section 106 consultation for the I-494 PROJECT, MnDOT
CRU, on behalf of FHWA, has notified the following Tribes and invited their participation in
consultation for the I-494 PROJECT: Fort Peck Tribes, Lower Sioux Indian Community, Prairie
Island Indian Community, Santee Sioux Nation, Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux Community,
Sisseton Wahpeton Oyate of the Lake Traverse Reservation, Turtle Mountain Band of
Chippewa, and Upper Sioux Community, and none responded with any concerns or requested
to participate in consultation; and
Whereas, although no Tribes have requested to participate in the Section 106 consultation for
the I-494 PROJECT, FHWA will reinitiate consultation with Tribes that may attach religious
I-494: Airport to Highway 169 Project 3 REVIEW DRAFT 1
54 USC 306108 Programmatic Agreement
and/or cultural significance to historic properties that may be identified under the terms of this
Project PA, as appropriate; and
Whereas, on *ADD DATE and in accordance with 36 CFR 800.6(a)(1)(i)(C), FHWA notified the
Advisory Council on Historic Preservation (ACHP) of its intent to enter into this Project PA, and
the ACHP has *ADD CHOSEN TO OR CHOSEN NOT TO participate in the consultation pursuant to
36 CFR 800.6(a)(1)(iii); and
Whereas, due to the anticipated environmental impacts, confluence of jurisdictional
boundaries, anticipated need for permits and approvals, and expected interest in the I-494
PROJECT, the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) became a cooperating agency in the NEPA
process and, pursuant to 36 CFR 800.2(a)(2), invited FHWA to become the lead Federal agency
for the I-494 PROJECT, fulfilling their collective responsibilities under the Section 106 process;
and FHWA accepted lead Federal agency designation on August 31, 2021, agreeing to include
FTA as an Invited Signatory to this Project PA pursuant to 36 CFR 800.6(c)(2); and
Whereas, the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) may issue permits to construct
the I-494 PROJECT pursuant to Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (33 USC 1344) or Section 10
of the Rivers and Harbors Act of 1899 (33 USC 403), has determined that this is an undertaking
subject to the requirements of Section 106 and 36 CFR Part 800, and recognizes FHWA as the
lead Federal agency for the purpose of Section 106 compliance on Federal-Aid Highway
Program undertakings pursuant to the Statewide Agreement; and FHWA has invited them to
sign this Project PA as an Invited Signatory pursuant to 36 CFR 800.6(c)(2); and
Whereas, MnDOT CRU and FHWA have invited the City of Bloomington, the Edina Heritage
Preservation Commission, and the Richfield Historical Society to consult on the I-494 PROJECT
pursuant to 36 CFR 800.2(c)(5), and both the Edina Heritage Preservation Commission and the
Richfield Historical Society have accepted; and FHWA has invited each to sign this Project PA as
a Concurring Party pursuant to 36 CFR 800.6(c)(3); and
Whereas, because MnDOT CRU assumes certain responsibilities under this Project PA, FHWA
has invited MnDOT to become an Invited Signatory to this Project PA pursuant to
36 CFR 800.6(c)(2); and
Whereas, this Project PA was developed with appropriate public involvement pursuant to
Stipulation 3.A.ii of the Statewide Agreement, 36 CFR 800.2(d), and 36 CFR 800.6(a)(4); and the
public involvement has been coordinated with the public review and comment conducted by
FHWA and MnDOT to comply with NEPA, as amended, pursuant to 36 CFR 800.8(a); and
Whereas, the Signatories, Invited Signatories, and Concurring Parties are all considered
Consulting Parties pursuant to 36 CFR 800.2(c) and their roles described herein are consistent
with those described in 36 CFR 800.6(c)(1), (2), and (3), respectively; and
I-494: Airport to Highway 169 Project 4 REVIEW DRAFT 1
54 USC 306108 Programmatic Agreement
Whereas, MnDOT will implement the I-494 PROJECT and, with the assistance of MnDOT CRU,
will complete the stipulations of this Project PA, and FHWA will be responsible for ensuring that
implementation of the I-494 PROJECT meets the terms of this Project PA; and
Now, therefore, FHWA and MnSHPO agree that the I-494 PROJECT will be implemented in
accordance with the following stipulations in order to take into account the effects of the I-494
PROJECT on historic properties.
Stipulations
FHWA, with the assistance of MnDOT CRU, will ensure the following measures are carried out:
I. Applicability
A. If MnDOT applies for additional funding or approvals for the I-494 PROJECT from a
Federal agency that is not party to this Project PA, the Federal agency may remain
individually responsible for their undertaking under 36 CFR Part 800. Alternatively, if
the undertaking as described herein remains unchanged, such funding or approving
Federal agency may request in writing to FHWA of their desire to designate FHWA as
lead Federal agency for the undertaking pursuant to 36 CFR 800.2(a)(2) and to
become a Consulting Party to this Project PA pursuant to Paragraph B of this
Stipulation.
B. If during the implementation of this Project PA, FHWA identifies other agencies,
Tribes, individuals, and organizations with a demonstrated interest in the
undertaking due to the nature of their legal or economic relation to the I-494
PROJECT or affected properties, or due to their concern with the I-494 PROJECT’S
effects on historic properties, FHWA may offer such entities Consulting Party status
pursuant to 36 CFR 800.2(c) and/or invite them to become a party to this Project PA,
with notification to the other Consulting Parties.
i. If FHWA invites an entity to become an Invited Signatory, the party may accept
this status by agreeing in writing to the terms of this Project PA and so notifying
FHWA. If the entity agrees to become an Invited Signatory and MnSHPO, FTA,
and USACE have no objections, FHWA will follow Stipulation XI: Amendments to
amend this Project PA.
ii. If FHWA invites an entity to become a Concurring Party, the entity may accept
this status by agreeing in writing to the terms of this Project PA and so notifying
FHWA. Because Concurring Parties have no responsibility for implementation of
this Project PA, FHWA may add such parties to the consultation process without
formal amendment of this Project PA. FHWA will notify the Consulting Parties of
any entities who agree to become a Concurring Party.
I-494: Airport to Highway 169 Project 5 REVIEW DRAFT 1
54 USC 306108 Programmatic Agreement
C. The I-494 PROJECT is expected to have more than one construction project within
the Project Footprint, beginning with the First Construction Project (S.P. 2785-424)
and followed by subsequent construction projects. Each construction project will be
considered independently for the purposes of consultation pursuant to this Project
PA. In these instances, the status of any individual construction project (e.g., design
stage or construction) may be considered specific to the individual construction
project without applying to the entire I-494 PROJECT. Active construction activities
include, but may not be limited to, demolition activities, earthwork, staging, and
construction of infrastructure and related improvements.
II. Standards
A. All work carried out pursuant to this Project PA will meet the Secretary of the
Interior’s Standards for Archaeology and Historic Preservation (48 FR 44716) and/or
the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties
(36 CFR Part 68), as applicable (individually or collectively, SOI Standards).
Documentation for determinations of eligibility and findings of effect will meet
36 CFR 800.11, Stipulation 4 of the Statewide Agreement, the SOI Standards, the
National Park Service’s Bulletins, MnSHPO survey and reporting guidance, and
MnDOT CRU survey and reporting guidance, as appropriate. Documentation of
historic properties for the purposes of resolving Adverse Effects under Stipulation
VII: Consultation to Resolve Adverse Effects, may follow either the SOI Standards or
another appropriate documentation standard that is agreed upon in writing by both
FHWA and MnSHPO.
B. FHWA will ensure all activities carried out pursuant to this Project PA are done by, or
under the direct supervision of, historic preservation professional(s) who meet the
Secretary of the Interior’s Professional Qualifications Standards (48 FR 44738-44739)
in the appropriate field(s) for the activity (SOI-Qualified Professionals).
C. FHWA acknowledges Tribes possess special expertise in assessing the National
Register eligibility of properties with religious and cultural significance to their
Tribe(s). If a Tribe requests, or if FHWA otherwise offers and the Tribe accepts,
Consulting Party status under this Project PA, FHWA will seek input from the Tribe
on whether an identified property has potential religious or cultural significance to
the Tribe under National Register criteria.
III. Deliverables and Consulting Party Review Procedures
A. To facilitate review, submittals to Consulting Parties may be limited to the portions
of the construction plan set that illustrate the way the I-494 PROJECT may affect
historic properties. Additional portions of the plan set or additional information
requested by one or more Consulting Parties will be provided to all Consulting
Parties.
I-494: Airport to Highway 169 Project 6 REVIEW DRAFT 1
54 USC 306108 Programmatic Agreement
B. The Consulting Parties have thirty (30) calendar days to review and provide
comments on all findings, determinations, documents, and deliverables, unless
otherwise specified in this Project PA.
C. For all findings, determinations, documents, and deliverables submitted during
construction and directly related to construction activities, the Consulting Parties
have ten (10) calendar days to review and provide comments, unless otherwise
specified in this Project PA.
D. If the deliverable is a draft document, any written comments provided within the
review and comment period will be considered in the preparation of the final
document. If there are any comments that are not feasible to address in the final
document, FHWA will provide an explanation to the Consulting Parties as part of
issuing the final document. If no comments on a draft document are provided within
the specified review timeframe, FHWA, at its discretion, may consider the draft
document final with notification to Consulting Parties.
E. If FHWA and MnSHPO are unable to reach agreement on eligibility determinations,
findings of effect, or resolution of Adverse Effects, FHWA will consult with MnSHPO
to resolve the disagreement in accordance with Stipulation X: Dispute Resolution.
F. All review timeframes may be extended by mutual consent between FHWA and
MnSHPO with notification to the other Consulting Parties. Failure of any Consulting
Party to respond within the specified timeframe will not preclude FHWA from
proceeding to the next step of any process under this Project PA.
IV. Delineation and Revisions to the APE
A. MnDOT CRU, pursuant to its responsibilities under Stipulation 3.C of the Statewide
PA, and in consultation with MnSHPO and other Consulting Parties, will develop an
APE for individual construction projects within the Project Footprint and incorporate
each construction project’s APE into Appendix B.
i. MnDOT CRU, in consultation with MnSHPO and other Consulting Parties, has
delineated the First Construction Project’s (S.P. 2785-424) APE as shown in
Appendix B.1. As subsequent construction projects are developed, MnDOT CRU
will submit the draft and final APE for the individual construction project, along
with any supporting documentation to MnSHPO and other Consulting Parties for
review and comment pursuant to Stipulation III: Deliverables and Consulting
Party Review Process. Once it has considered any comments received, MnDOT
CRU’s determination on the individual construction project’s APE will be final.
ii. Incorporation of individual construction project APEs into this Project PA do not
require a formal amendment. If delineated by MnDOT CRU pursuant to
Subparagraph A.i of this Stipulation, then the APE will be incorporated into
I-494: Airport to Highway 169 Project 7 REVIEW DRAFT 1
54 USC 306108 Programmatic Agreement
Appendix B, distributed to all Consulting Parties, filed with the ACHP, and used
throughout the remainder of the I-494 PROJECT unless further revisions to the
APE are necessary due to modifications to project scope.
B. Throughout the design process, and as needed during construction, MnDOT CRU will
determine if revisions to APEs for individual construction projects are necessary.
i. If MnDOT CRU determines an APE for an individual construction project requires
revision, it will submit the draft and final APE, along with any supporting
documentation, to MnSHPO and other Consulting Parties for review and
comment pursuant to Stipulation III: Deliverables and Consulting Party Review
Process. Once it has considered any comments received, MnDOT CRU’s
determination on the revised APE will be final.
ii. Revisions to APEs for individual construction projects do not require a formal
amendment to this Project PA. If revised and documented by MnDOT CRU
pursuant to Subparagraph B.i of this Stipulation, then the revised APE will
replace the applicable APE in Appendix B, distributed to all Consulting Parties,
filed with the ACHP, and used throughout the remainder of the I-494 PROJECT
unless further revisions to the APE are necessary due to modifications to project
scope.
C. If any new, previously unsurveyed, areas are added to an APE for an individual
construction project, the procedures in Stipulation V: Survey and Evaluation will be
followed to identify historic properties that may be affected.
V. Survey and Evaluation
A. MnDOT CRU, pursuant to its responsibilities under Stipulations 3.D and 3.E of the
Statewide Agreement, and in consultation with MnSHPO and other Consulting
Parties, will conduct surveys and evaluation of properties in the APE for individual
construction projects.
i. Surveys and evaluation will be conducted and reviewed in phases, beginning
with the First Construction Project (S.P. 2785-424), and continuing with each
subsequent construction project as it is developed.
ii. Surveys and evaluation may be updated when necessary to account for any
areas added to the APE through revisions made under Stipulation IV: Delineation
and Revisions to the APE or the receipt of additional information about known or
suspected historic properties in the APE.
iii. Under the terms of the Exemption Regarding Historic Preservation Review
Process for the Interstate Highway System (70 FR 11928-11931, March 10, 2005),
FHWA does not need to consider the effects of its undertaking on components
I-494: Airport to Highway 169 Project 8 REVIEW DRAFT 1
54 USC 306108 Programmatic Agreement
essential to the operation of I-494 and I-35W, including but not limited to the
Interstate roadbed, engineering features, bridges, tunnels, rest stops,
interchanges, off-ramps, and on-ramps. No Interstate components within the
APE were included on Minnesota’s list of exceptions to the exemption.
B. Survey and evaluation will be performed by SOI-Qualified Professionals appropriate
to the resource type(s) being identified and evaluated and will meet the
requirements of Stipulation II: Standards. In any instance where a property cannot
be fully evaluated prior to the initiation of construction or the resumption of
construction activities in the vicinity of the property when identified pursuant to
Stipulation VIII: Unanticipated Discoveries and Treatment of Human Remains, the
property may be treated as though it is eligible for inclusion in the National Register
for the purpose of the Section 106 review for the I-494 PROJECT only. In these
instances, and in addition to providing a justification for not performing a full
evaluation, MnDOT CRU will document the National Register criterion or criteria,
potential area(s) and period(s) of significance, and boundaries used to assume the
property’s eligibility so that this information can be used to assess effects on the
historic property pursuant to Stipulation VI: Assessments of Effects.
C. MnDOT CRU will submit its National Register eligibility determinations to MnSHPO
and other Consulting Parties for review and comment pursuant to Stipulation III:
Deliverables and Consulting Party Review Process. Subject to the confidentiality
requirements in Section 304 of the National Historic Preservation Act
(54 USC 307103) and 36 CFR 800.11(c), MnDOT CRU will post the survey results on
the I-494 PROJECT website, or other means as appropriate, in order to obtain public
input and will share any comments received from the public with the Consulting
Parties.
i. If MnSHPO does not respond during the applicable review period or if MnSHPO
concurs, MnDOT CRU’s eligibility determinations will become final and effects to
any historic properties identified will be assessed pursuant to Stipulation VI:
Assessments of Effects.
ii. If MnDOT CRU and MnSHPO do not agree on the National Register-eligibility of a
property, or if MnDOT CRU and a Tribe that attaches religious and cultural
significance to a property do not agree on National Register-eligibility, MnDOT
CRU will resolve the disagreement pursuant to Stipulation X: Dispute Resolution.
VI. Assessments of Effects
A. MnDOT CRU, pursuant to its responsibilities under Stipulations 3.F, 3.G., and 3.H of
the Statewide PA, will make a finding of effect for historic properties identified
through Stipulation V: Survey and Evaluation.
I-494: Airport to Highway 169 Project 9 REVIEW DRAFT 1
54 USC 306108 Programmatic Agreement
i. Effects will be assessed and reviewed in phases, beginning with the First
Construction Project (S.P. 2785-424), and continuing with each subsequent
construction project as it is developed.
ii. Findings may be updated when necessary to account for any changes in design
or the receipt of additional information that may result in newly identified
historic properties, changes in the finding of effect for a historic property, or
unanticipated effects (e.g., damage) to historic properties.
iii. As part of the finding of effect, MnDOT CRU may impose conditions on the
individual construction project to ensure an Adverse Effect to a historic property
is avoided and/or minimized.
iv. If MnDOT CRU makes a finding of Adverse Effect on a National Historic
Landmark, MnDOT CRU will notify FHWA. Pursuant to 36 CFR 800.10,
54 USC 306107, and Stipulation 3.H of the Statewide Agreement, FHWA will
invite the ACHP and the Secretary of the Interior to participate in consultation to
resolve the Adverse Effect.
B. Pursuant to Stipulation 3.F of the Statewide Agreement, findings of No Historic
Properties Affected do not need to be submitted to MnSHPO or other Consulting
Parties. If a finding of No Historic Properties Affected is made, MnDOT CRU will
notify Consulting Parties through the reporting process outlined in Stipulation IX:
Reports on Agreement Implementation.
C. Pursuant to Stipulations 3.G and 3.H of the Statewide Agreement, findings of No
Adverse Effect and Adverse Effect must be submitted to MnSHPO and other
Consulting Parties for review and comment. MnDOT CRU will submit the finding of
effect, supported by documentation that meets the requirements of Stipulation II:
Standards, to MnSHPO and other Consulting Parties pursuant to Stipulation III:
Deliverables and Consulting Party Review Process.
i. If MnDOT CRU makes a finding of No Adverse Effect and MnSHPO and other
Consulting Parties agree, no further consultation is required pending
implementation of any conditions upon which the finding is based.
Implementation of conditions will be tracked by MnDOT CRU as part of the
reporting outlined in Stipulation IX: Reports on Agreement Implementation.
FHWA will ensure the specified conditions are met.
ii. If MnDOT CRU makes a finding of Adverse Effect and MnSHPO and other
Consulting Parties agree, the Adverse Effect will be resolved through Stipulation
VII: Consultation to Resolve Adverse Effects.
iii. If MnSHPO objects to MnDOT CRU’s finding of effect or if other Consulting
Parties do not agree with the finding, they will provide comments to FHWA
I-494: Airport to Highway 169 Project 10 REVIEW DRAFT 1
54 USC 306108 Programmatic Agreement
specifying the reasons for their disagreement. FHWA and MnDOT CRU will
consult with MnSHPO and other Consulting Parties to resolve the disagreement
in accordance with Stipulation X: Dispute Resolution.
VII. Consultation to Resolve Adverse Effects
A. If MnDOT CRU makes a finding of Adverse Effect pursuant to Stipulation VI:
Assessments of Effects, FHWA and MnDOT CRU will consult with MnSHPO, other
Consulting Parties, and the owner of the historic property, when applicable, to seek
and consider other measures to avoid, minimize, and/or mitigate the Adverse
Effect(s). Consultation may take whatever form is appropriate based on the
significance, character, and use of the historic property and the nature and scale of
the project elements causing the Adverse Effect(s). The consultation must include an
opportunity for the public to express their views in resolving the Adverse Effect(s). If,
through consultation, it is determined the Adverse Effect(s) cannot be avoided
entirely, a Mitigation Plan will be prepared under Paragraph B of this Stipulation.
B. MnDOT CRU will develop a Mitigation Plan(s) to document the measures identified
through consultation under Paragraph A of this Stipulation to avoid, minimize,
and/or mitigate Adverse Effects. Mitigation Plan(s) may be prepared for the I-494
PROJECT as a whole, for individual and/or multiple construction projects, and/or for
individual or groups of historic properties, as needed. The Mitigation Plan must be
finalized before construction activities on the individual construction project begin
or, in the case of properties identified under Stipulation VIII: Unanticipated
Discoveries and Treatment of Human Remains, the Mitigation Plan must be finalized
before resuming construction activities in proximity to the historic property.
i. When applicable, deliverables required by a Mitigation Plan will be prepared in
accordance with the requirements of Stipulation II: Standards and will be
submitted and reviewed pursuant to the timeline(s) and process outlined in
Stipulation III: Deliverables and Consulting Party Review Process, or as otherwise
specified in the Mitigation Plan.
ii. Upon completion of consultation, MnDOT CRU will submit a draft and final
Mitigation Plan to the Consulting Parties and the property owner, if applicable,
pursuant to Stipulation III: Deliverables and Consulting Party Review Process. The
Mitigation Plan will be considered final following agreement in writing by FHWA
and MnSHPO. In lieu of amending this Project PA, FHWA will ensure that the final
Mitigation Plan is attached to the Project PA in the FHWA and MnDOT CRU
administrative records, distributed to all Consulting Parties, and filed with the
ACHP. Implementation of the Mitigation Plan will be tracked by MnDOT CRU as
part of the reporting outlined in Stipulation IX: Reports on Agreement
I-494: Airport to Highway 169 Project 11 REVIEW DRAFT 1
54 USC 306108 Programmatic Agreement
Implementation. FHWA will ensure the Mitigation Plan provisions are carried
out.
C. If FHWA and MnSHPO fail to agree on how to resolve the Adverse Effect(s), FHWA
and MnDOT CRU will consult with MnSHPO and other Consulting Parties to resolve
the disagreement in accordance with Stipulation X: Dispute Resolution.
D. If required by a Mitigation Plan, construction activities may not begin or resume in
the vicinity of the historic property until after the completion of the associated field
work or implementation of protection measures outlined in the Mitigation Plan.
VIII. Unanticipated Discoveries and Treatment of Human Remains
A. If an individual construction project affects a previously unidentified property that
may be historic or a known historic property in an unanticipated manner, MnDOT
CRU and FHWA will ensure the process outlined in Stipulation 5 of the Statewide
Agreement is followed.
B. If human burials or artifacts associated with mortuary features are found during
construction of an individual construction project, MnDOT CRU and FHWA will
ensure the process outlined in Stipulation 6 of the Statewide Agreement is followed.
IX. Reports on Agreement Implementation
A. Every six (6) months following the execution of this Agreement and until it expires or
is terminated, the MnDOT CRU, on behalf of FHWA, will provide all the Consulting
Parties a summary report detailing work undertaken pursuant to its terms via email.
Subject to the confidentiality requirements in 54 USC 307103 and 36 CFR 800.11(c),
each report will include an itemized listing of all measures required to implement
the terms of this Project PA.
B. The Consulting Parties will review the reports pursuant to the timelines established
in Stipulation III: Deliverables and Consulting Party Review Procedures. At its own
discretion, or at the request of any Signatory, FHWA may convene a meeting to
facilitate review and comment on the reports, and to resolve any questions about
their content and/or to resolve objections or concerns.
X. Dispute Resolution
A. Any party to this Project PA may object to its terms or the implementation of its
terms by providing written objection to FHWA. FHWA will ensure the process
outlined in Stipulation 7 of the Statewide Agreement is followed.
E. FHWA’s responsibility to carry out all other actions subject to the terms of this
Project PA that are not the subject of the dispute remains unchanged.

the terms of the Project PA have not been met, they will respond within the
timeframes outlined in Stipulation III: Deliverables and Consulting Party Review
Procedures.
B. Any Signatory or Invited Signatory may terminate this Project PA by providing at
least thirty (30) calendar days’ notice to all Consulting Parties. FHWA will consult
with the Signatories and Invited Signatories during the thirty (30) calendar day
notice period in an attempt to seek agreement on amendments or other actions that
would avoid termination. In the event of termination, FHWA will reinitiate review of
the undertaking in accordance with 36 CFR 800, the Statewide Agreement, and any
active agreements FHWA has with federally recognized tribes. Any Federal agencies

36 CFR 800.3-800.13 for their undertaking, when applicable.
XIV. Execution
A. This Project PA may be executed in counterparts, with a separate page for each
Consulting Party. This Project PA will become effective on the date of the final
signature by the Signatories and Invited Signatories. The refusal of any party invited
to concur with this Project PA does not invalidate this Project PA. FHWA will ensure
each Consulting Party is provided with a fully executed copy of this Project PA and
that the final Project PA, updates to appendices, and any amendments are filed with
the ACHP.
B. Execution of this Project PA by FHWA and MnSHPO, and implementation of its terms
is evidence that FHWA has taken into account the effects of its undertaking on
historic properties and has afforded the ACHP an opportunity to comment, pursuant
to Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act.
