Quick Take Eminent Domain
Government can take your property in a process that only takes 90 days.
From my understanding this is a way for government to take property from the owner, in away that doesn't allow them time to create a defense or gather support from others who would also appose this eminent domain.
I went to the Minnesota Statutes Index web page. I found this article that looks like state can take property with in 90 days.

I found this articular in the Star Tribune. Washington County uses Quick Take for a roundabout.

TMDL Total Maximum Daily Load
The Clean Water Act, Section 303(d), requires that every two years states publish a list of waters that do not meet water quality standards and do not support their designated uses. These waters are then considered to be “impaired”. Once a waterbody is placed on the impaired waters list, a Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) must be developed. The TMDL provides a calculation of the maximum amount of a pollutant that a waterbody can receive and still meet water quality standards.
This is a link to the 2012 Study ( every 2 years)
