local land use and lard use controls, the protection of agricul- ture and natural resources, existing and future development pat- terns, transportation and other services appropriate to the haz- ardous waste facilities, the quality of other potential sites, and the location of hazardous waste generators. 18. On November 4, 1982, the Board identified certain factors which would be used in the oomparison of preliminary area in order to select proposed areas. Those factors are listed on page 23 of WMB Exhibit O and will form the basis for the organization of the following Findings. However, one of the purposes of the hearings was to identify criteria which had been overlooked by the Board aryl, therefore, additional factors will be discussed which do not "fit" into the Board's factors. Existing Industrial Development 19. As can be seen from the large aerial photograph (*S Ex. ZZ), much of the proposed area is already in use as an industrial park. The eastern por- tions of the area are primarily occupied by trucking-related industries--truck sales, service and storage. 7b the north, above the proposed area, is the Williams Brothers Pipeline any. Standard and Phillips Oil Companies are also in the vicinity. Other occupants within the proposed area include Boise-Cascade, Honeywell, Old Dutch Foods, and Sperry-Univac. Paper Calmenson Company is south of the proposed area. (WMB Mt. 0; Frc. XX). Planned Industrial Development 20. The area is zoned and planned for heavy industrial (I-2). In Febru- ary of 1982,1 the City of Roseville rezoned lard east of the proposed area from industrial use to business use. (*a Ex. O). Availability of Sewer 21. Sanitary sewer service is available to the entire proposed area. Adequate sewer system capacity currently exists and should be available in the future. Wastewater from Roseville is treated at the Metropolitan Wastewater teatment Plant (K*M). Sanitary sewer service to a specific area of a mm- munity is subject to approval of the community and can change. (W+93 Ex. 7T). Transportation Access 22. The proposed area has direct access to several nine-tan routes, in- cluding I-35W (interstate), Highway 280 (intermediate arterial), Hicray 88 (minor arterial), and Highway 51 (mirror art erial). " Ex. 40). 23. Interstate 35W, Highway 88 and HicJh ay 36 have lower accidents rates than the average rate for the same type of road in Minnesota. Hic�eray 280 and Highway 51 have higher-than-average accident rates. (VM Ex. 00, Ex. XX). 24. The two highways with higher-than-everage accident rates (7H-280; SH-51) are scheduled for rehabilitation within the next several years. (WMB at. Q4),. 25. 7}he area is also served by the Burlington Northern and Minnesota . Transfer Railroads. -4-
