Therefore, by definition, they would not <br /> <br />be considered as wetlands. <br /> Groundwater <br /> <br /> The following information was gathered on groundwater as a <br />result of public comment on the proposed Site E: <br /> <br /> 1. The depth of an irrigation well located in the <br /> center of the site (317 feet) . <br /> <br /> 2. The depth of a domestic well located on the <br /> northwest portion of the site (21 feet). <br /> <br /> 3. Information indicating that groundwater from the <br /> south portion of the site may be flowing south toward a <br /> housing development (rather than east). <br /> <br /> 4. Information indicating that wells within 1,000 feet <br /> range in depth from 25 to 125 feet. The MPCA staff checked <br /> with the source of this information and determined that these <br /> wells are located generally south of the site and east of <br /> Cedar Creek. The deeper wells are to the south of the site in <br /> the housing development mentioned above. <br /> <br /> With respect to the irrigation well, the MPCA staff would <br />note that it is not used for drinking water purposes. If the site <br />is developed as a landfill, its use would likely be discontinued. <br />Therefore this information does not bear on the determination of <br />the intrinsic suitability of the site. <br /> <br /> <br />
