North Dayton Development AUAR <br />• All lighting for the development should be shielded and down directional so as to minimize glare onto <br />surrounding properties. <br />■ Wooded areas along the lakes shall be preserved to maintain a visual barrier when possible. <br />■ The project will comply with the City's Buffering Requirements along all major roads. <br />16. Air <br />a. Stationary source emissions - Describe the type, sources, quantities and compositions of any emissions <br />from stationary sources such as boilers or exhaust stacks. Include any hazardous air pollutants, criteria <br />pollutants, and any greenhouse gases. Discuss effects to air quality including any sensitive receptors, <br />human health or applicable regulatory criteria. Include a discussion of any methods used assess the <br />project's effect on air quality and the results of that assessment. Identify pollution control equipment and <br />other measures that will be taken to avoid, minimize, or mitigate adverse effects from stationary source <br />emissions. <br />The project would not result in stationary source air emissions, and therefore this item is not applicable to <br />the AUAR. Any stationary air emissions source large enough to merit environmental review requires <br />individual review. <br />b. Vehicle emissions - Describe the effect of the project's traffic generation on air emissions. Discuss the <br />project's vehicle -related emissions effect on air quality. Identify measures (e.g. traffic operational <br />improvements, diesel idling minimization plan) that will be taken to minimize or mitigate vehicle -related <br />emissions. <br />Motor vehicle emissions will be associated with vehicles traveling to and from the redevelopment site and <br />from construction equipment necessary for the proposed construction activities. The most critical <br />pollutant associated with vehicular traffic in Minnesota is carbon monoxide (CO). Carbon monoxide <br />(CO) is one of five vehicle emission pollutants for which the US Environmental Protection Agency has <br />standards. CO is a colorless, odorless and tasteless toxic gas produced by the incomplete burning of <br />carbon in fuel. Concentrations of carbon monoxide are typically greatest at intersections with poor levels <br />of service because of excessive idling or acceleration of vehicles. The existing concentration of carbon <br />monoxide at the project location is considered to be low because no part of Dayton has been identified as <br />a Carbon Monoxide Level Non -Attainment Location. The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency has a <br />nearby ambient air quality monitoring station in Anoka (MPC Station 6020). In addition, charging <br />stations for electric vehicles will be considered in pertinent public areas. <br />c. Dust and odors - Describe sources, characteristics, duration, quantities, and intensity of dust and odors <br />generated during project construction and operation. (Fugitive dust may be discussed under item 16a). <br />Discuss the effect of dust and odors in the vicinity of the project including nearby sensitive receptors and <br />quality of life. Identify measures that will be taken to minimize or mitigate the effects of dust and odors. <br />Odors generated during construction will be mitigated by maintenance of the construction equipment to <br />the manufacturers' specifications and by using appropriate fuel additives when necessary.
