We are not aware of any <br />additional restrictions or requirements for USTs within wellhead protection areas. <br /> <br />Recommendations (of the commenter): <br /> 9. This statement should provide a reference to State statute, rule, or local <br /> ordinance that places this addition restriction on USTs located within a <br /> wellhead protection area. If no supporting regulatory documentation is <br /> provided this statement should be deleted. <br /> 10. That the AUAR acknowledge that USTs may be located in the City's <br /> wellhead protection areas and encourage the City to address this potential <br /> contaminant source in their wellhead protection plan (under development). <br /> <br />Response: The Mitigation Element oflteTM 13 of the document has been changed to <br />reflect the comment. <br /> <br />Cominent 8.25: Re: Page 20-3 - The Ramsey Wellhead Protection Plan is in <br />development. Part 1 on the wellhead protection plan, addressing WHPAs, DWSMAs and <br />well vulnerabilitY classifications has been completed and approved by MDH. Part 2 of <br />the City's wellhead protection plan is being developed and ,,viii address contaminant <br />sources and education initiative within the site and the City WHPA/DWSMA. <br /> <br />Recommendation (of the commenter): <br /> 11. That this statement be combined with other references to wellhead <br /> protection planning and inserted into the Water Use section/item. <br /> References to a developed wellhead protection plan should be modified to <br /> completion of Part- 1 and continuing development of Part 2. <br /> <br />Response: See response to comment 8.1. References to the wellhead protection plan as <br />having two parts have been corrected in the document as suggested. <br /> <br />Comment 8.26: (page 20~3) "The most controlled land use in the I4/H£A is the use of <br />zmderground storage tanks to slore petroleum and any other potentially harmful <br />substance. Undergro~tnd tanks are allowed in the I4/H?A if the tanks are double-walled <br />and grozmdwater c/roztnd the tc/nk is monitored for contamination fi'om, a possible leak in <br />/he tank./-/owever, the ztse of ztnderground tanks in these areas is strongly discouraged. <br />[n /he case that a leak occurred, alternative water sources, such as the emergency <br />conneclion with the City of Anoka, would potentially have to be used". <br /> <br />34~17 <br /> <br />-165- <br /> <br /> <br />
