Data drop: Work permit documents related to the North American High Speed Rail's Velos project

Back at the end of January, Heather Carlson reported for the Rochester Post Bulletin in Private company gets permits to study high-speed rail route:

The Minnesota Department of Transportation announced Wednesday it would stop work on the Zip Rail project, pending a vote by the Olmsted County Regional Rail Authority on Tuesday. A resolution before the county board would suspend work on the Zip Rail project "for the indefinite future," citing the private-sector efforts. MnDOT also revealed it had approved miscellaneous work permits for the North American High Speed Rail Group, allowing the private company to move ahead with a feasibility study along the proposed high-speed rail corridor.

Here are the documents, obtained by a reader via a Data Practice Request:
