Round Lake Road <br />Arden Hills, MN 55112 <br /> <br />Dear Nancy Randall: <br /> <br />The management ofFriskies PetCare is requesting a site plan review for the construction <br />of a bio-filter on its property located at 4251 Femwood Avenue. <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />The purpose of this bio-filter will be to significantly further reduce the odor that is <br />generated by the petfood baking process. The engineering design and installation <br />contractor that we have selected for this installation is Biorem. <br /> <br />An expert odor consultant along with Friskies PetCare's envirorunental, technical experts <br />and engineers, has been researching improvements to the plant odor emission. We have <br />determined that the natural bacteriological system used by the bio-filter is the most <br />effective enhancement. The Friskies representatives have visited several sites using <br />Biorem Bio-filters. These sites have had a dramatic reduction in odors and odor <br />complaints. Observations by Friskies personnel have indicated that the facility odor was <br />close to being non-detectable after the discharge air flowed through the bio-filter. <br /> <br />As you can see from the attached site plan, the bio-filter will be constructed behind the <br />plant and will be landscaped to reduce its visual impact. <br /> <br />If you have any questions about the site plan, please contact me. <br /> <br />Thank you for your consideration. <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />SP;'!1J0 <br /> <br />Ken Hola <br />Plant Manager <br />Friskies PetCare <br /> <br />REC!=lvr-o <br />JUL 2 3 1999 <br /> <br />01Y Of ARUti~ liiU5 <br /> <br />_. <br />
