The waste haulers in Ramsey have municipal waste recycling programs. The residents will be encouraged to <br /> recycle all municipa~ solid was[es thai can be recycled. The remainder of the municipal solid waste will be disposed <br /> of at an approved muncipal waste landfill. - <br /> <br />b. Identify any toxic or hazardous materials to be used or present at the site and identify <br /> measures to be used to prevent them from contaminating groundwater. If the use of <br /> toxic or hazardous materials will lead to a regulated waste, discharge or emission, <br /> discuss any alternatives considered to minimize or eliminate the waste, discharge or <br /> emission. <br /> No previous environmental hazards have .been found on site. Normal construction and household hazardous wastes <br /> are anticipated. Toxic or hazardous materials such as fuel for construction equipment and materials used in the <br /> construction of homes (paint, adhesives, stains, contaminated rags, acids, bases, herbicides, and pesticides) will <br /> likely be used during site preparation and house construction. Spills of these materials are not planned, but could <br /> require notification of the Minnesota Duty Officers if a significant spill occurs. Builders/contractors are responsible <br /> for proper management and disposal of any wastes generated during construction and homeowners are responsible <br /> for management and disposal thereafter. Any toxic or hazardous materials used on site will be properly used, <br /> properly stored in between uses, and properly disposed of when finished. <br /> A Phase I Environmental Site Assessment for the project site concluded that there have been no toxic or hazardous <br /> material spills at the site. <br /> <br />c. Indicate the number, location, size and use of any above or below ground tanks to <br /> store petroleum products or other materials, except water. Describe any emergency <br /> response containment plans. <br /> There will be no temporary tanks on site during construction. Refueling will take place from tanker trucks, and will <br /> occur in areas that are no/environmentally sensitive. There will be no permanent storage tanks located on the site <br /> afl:er development. <br /> <br />Provide an estimate of the impact on traffic congestion on affected roads and describe <br />any traffic improvements necessary. If the project is within the Twin Cities metropolitan <br />area, discuss its impact on the regional transportation system. <br /> <br />Parking spaces added <br /> <br />Existing spaces (if project involves <br />expansion) <br />Estimated total average daily traffic <br />generated <br /> <br />Estimated maximum peak hour <br />traffic generated (if known) <br /> <br />Time of occurrence <br /> <br />N/A <br />N/A <br /> <br />975 vehicles per day residential, 1065 vehictes per day commercial, 2370 <br />TC-2 district <br />345 trips in, 185 trips out residential; 385 trips in, 190 trips out <br />commercial; 610 trips in, 610 trips out TC-2 district <br />4-6 PM Weekdays residential, 8-9 AM Weekdays commercial, 8-9 AM <br />Weekdays TC-2 district <br /> <br />Please see an in depth discussion of the traffic issues included in the appendix. <br /> <br />96 <br /> <br />Estimate the effect of the project's traffic generation on air quality, including carbon <br />monoxide levels. Discuss the effect of traffic improvements or other mitigation measures <br />on air quality impacts. Note: If the project involves 500 or more. parking spaces, consult <br />EAW Guidelines about whether a detailed air quality analysis is needed. <br /> Carbon monoxide levels are projected to remain below the MPCA standards because the existing roadway system <br /> <br /> <br />
