Adelaide Landing Residential Development EAW, Hugo January 31, 2017 12. Contamination/Hazardous Materials/Wastes a. Pre project site conditions - Describe existing contamination or potential environmental hazards on or in close proximity to the project site such as soil or ground water contamination, abandoned dumps, closed landfills, existing or abandoned storage tanks, and hazardous liquid or gas pipelines. Discuss any potential environmental effects from pre project site conditions that would be caused or exacerbated by project construction and operation. Identify measures to avoid, minimize or mitigate adverse effects from existing contamination or potential environmental hazards. Include development of a Contingency Plan or Response Action Plan. A Phase I ESA has not been completed for the project area to date. However, review of the Minnesota Pollution Control What's in My Neighborhood Database indicated no activities or permits within the Project; however, 82 activities were mapped within one mile of the Project. The closest mapped activities and permits included: an inactive construction stormwater permit for TH 61 and 130th St., an inactive hazardous waste permit for small to minimal quantity generator (QG) at Truex, Inc., an active hazardous waste permit for small to minimal QG Lake Area Painting, Inc., an inactive hazardous waste permit for small to minimal QG at Kotoski Bros. Boat Works, an inactive construction stormwater permit for Country Ponds CSW, and an active industrial stormwater permit for Schwieter's Companies, Inc. Also, Egg Lake Demolition Dump (no longer active) is located about 0.3 miles northeast of the Project, and a Leak site associated with Glacier International is located about 0.4 miles east of the Project. The project proposer will prepare a Construction Contingency Plan for the site prior to development to address any potential contaminated soils that could exist within the project area from on or off -site sources. One pipeline crosses the southwestern portion of the project area. The pipeline reportedly carries crude oil and is operated by the Koch Pipeline Company, L.P. b. Project related generation/storage of solid wastes - Describe solid wastes generated/stored during construction and/or operation of the project. Indicate method of disposal. Discuss potential environmental effects from solid waste handling, storage and disposal. Identify measures to avoid, minimize or mitigate adverse effects from the generation/storage of solid waste including source reduction and recycling. Construction activities will generate wastes typical of residential development operations. No solid or hazardous wastes, including solid animal manure, sludge, and ash, will be produced during construction and/or operation. The contractor will dispose of wastes generated at the site in an approved method by using commercial dumpsters and disposing construction wastes at an MPCA- permitted landfill. The contractor will minimize and mitigate adverse effects from the generation and storage of solid waste by recycling construction waste that can be recycled, when feasible. Following project construction, solid waste generation will be typical of occupied residential developments of this size. The majority of the solid waste generated will include materials such as paper, organics (food wastes, wood, and rubber products), yard waste, and inert solids. The remaining wastes will likely include plastics, metals, and glass. According to the Metropolitan Solid Waste Management Policy Plan 2010-2030 (MPCA, 2011), a Minnesota family of five generates approximately six tons of garbage per year, or 1.2 tons per occupant. The following residential solid waste generation rates were based on the conservative 24
