Waste M~nagcment of Minnesota, Inc. - 2 - May 18, 1979 We are reco~nending a change in the groundwater monitoring requirements (see items 1 and 2 of our correspondence of June 16, 1978[. This change would consist of the deletion of hardness and dissolved solids determina- tions and substituting in their place specific conductance and iron. You are already required to do specific conductance by the MPCA. Over the past several years there have been a number of emergency or abnormal conditions develop which our landfills were not able to deal with effectively, resulting in less than acceptable community conditions. For this reason we are recommending the following license condition: "A contingency plan be prepared, and submitted by July 1, 1979, which sets forth modifications of operation, provision of services and/or equipment necessary to reduce and promptly correct the community impact of adverse weather, essential equipment breakdowns, and other such problems or emergency conditions." Your license renewal application will be considered by the Environmental Services Committe of the Comprehensive Health Board at 8:00 P.M. on May 29, 1979 in the Commissioners' Room of the Courthouse. I anticipate that the above matters will be considered by the Committee. I would appreciate receiving your comments con- cerning the above before the Committee meeting. If you have any questions concerning this matter, or if I can be of any service to you, please call on me. Yours very truly, Robert M. Hutchison Director, Environmental Services cc: 'f~ty of Ramsey
