Mr. Christian replied that the work was done about one year ago. <br />Mr. Danielsreplied that Northern Natural replaced line and piping from their facility which then <br />goes west along the edge of the wetland. He noted that the digging was five to ten feet in depth <br />and there would have been dewatering in those trenches. He could not speak to what happened <br />with the neighboring property but noted that was not CenterPoint. He stated that this project would <br />be surface level with the exception of putting in supports for the tank. He commented that this is <br />a vapor and is flammable. He was unsure the odorant that the resident looked up online but <br />provided the Chevron SDS that is used. He also provided details on studies that have been done <br />and that can be supplied if desired. <br /> <br />Chairperson Bauer asked if staff requested those reports. <br /> <br />Senior Planner Anderson stated that staff did not make that type of request as those concerns were <br />not raised by the development review team. He noted that the Commission could make that a <br />condition if desired. He noted that the project from one year ago was maintenance and the WMO <br />issued the proper permits for dewatering. He was not aware of any concerns or complaints made <br />upon completion of the project. <br /> <br />Commissioner VanScoy asked if there is anything about the use that is unusual or unique to this <br />location. <br /> <br />Mr. Daniels replied that there is nothing unusual or unique about the location, but it is good use of <br />property they own. He noted that the use of these tanks are industry standard, and these would be <br />above ground storage tanks, therefore a diking system would be used to ensure containment could <br />occur. <br /> <br />Mr. Christian asked for details on who looked into the application and the requested chemical. <br /> <br />Senior Planner Anderson stated that the development review team includes staff from planning, <br />economic development, building, engineering, public works, fire department and police. He stated <br />that any land use application is routed through all those departments for review and comment. He <br />stated that the Fire Department did not have any concerns other than the permit for above ground <br />storage tank that would include the diking system. <br /> <br />Mr. Christian asked if the name of the chemical was known prior to tonight. <br /> <br />Senior Planner Anderson confirmed that information was included in the application. <br /> <br />Mr. Christian asked if anyone would like this tank behind their home. <br /> <br />Motion by Commissioner Peters, seconded by Commissioner VanScoy, to close the public hearing. <br />Motion Carried. Voting Yes: Chairperson Bauer, Commissioners Peters, VanScoy, Anderson, <br />Gengler, Hunt, and Walker. Voting No: None.
