any wastes generated during construction. Any toxic or hazardous materials used on site will be properly used, properly stored in between uses, and properly disposed of when finished. c. Indicate the number, location, size and use of any above or below ground tanks to store petroleum products or other materials, except water. Describe any emergency response containment plans. There will be no temporary tanks on site during construction. Refueling will take place fi:om tanker trucks, and will occur in areas that are not environmentally sensitive. There will be no permanent storage tanks located on the site alter development. Provide an estimate of the impact on traffic congestion on affected roads and describe any traffic improvements necessary. If the project is within the Twin cities metropolitan area, discuss its impact on the regional transportation system. Parking spaces added N/A Existing spaces (if project involves N/A expansion) Estimated total average daily traffic N/A generated Estimated ma:dmum peak hour N/A traffic generated (if known) Time of occurrence N/A A noticeable permanent increase in traffic will not .occur directly due to construction of the project, per se, The only increase in traffic resulting directly from the project would be that due to construction of the project, and that due to maintenance of the sewer line. During the construction process, construction vehicles will be utilizing cotmty roads. Delivery of pipe, concrete and other materials will be restricted to these county roads; use of local roads will be avoided. In the future, traffic in the vicinity of the project will increase with increased urban development. Residential, commercial, and other types of development will be enabled as a result of the project. It is the purpose of the project to provide wastewater collection and conveyence for the project service area. As a result of increased development of these areas in the furore, vehicular traffic will increase. The City of Rarnsey has prepared a transportation plan that will allow them to plan for and mitigate for the anticipated increase in traffic. It will be necessary ~br MnDOT, Anoka County, and the City of Ramsey to work together to provide appropriate roadway improvements and measures to mitigate traffic congestion. Estimate the effect of the project's traffic generation on air quality, including carbon monoxide levels. Discuss the effect of traffic improvements or other mitigation measures on air quality impacts. Note: If the project involves 500 or more parking spaces, consult EAW Guidelines about whether a detailed air quality analysis is needed. Thc proposed Droj¢ct will be coordinated with A~oka ~unty'and the City of Ramsey. Vehicle emissions directly associated with the prgject will not have a.,idgnificant effect on air quality. However, residential and other developme.nt enabled by the construction of waste';vater.conveyance capacity may result in measureable, but not likely.sl'gmificant, {mpacts. Carbon monoxide levels ar.e,projected to remain below the MPCA standards because the existing'roadway system (along with planned improvements) appears to have sufficient capacity to handle trips generated by the proposed development. Congestion is not expected on local or regional roadways and adverse air quality effects do not apFear likely. If traffic increases due to the enabled development result locally in future deterioration in levels of service and/or air quality violations, mitigative measures are available. These measures include roadway improvements, signal installation, and provision of alternative
