The tank would be <br />located on a concrete pad, adjacent to an existing outdoor nitrogen storage tank, on the east side <br />of Building 14, which is located on the north side of the campus (Attachment C). In addition to <br />the. storage tank, and on an existing concrete pad, the applicant would install a liquid nitrogen <br />vaporizer. The vaporizer would be five feet, nine inches square, and fifteen feet, nine inches in <br />height. The tanks are necessary in order to meet the demand of Boston Scientific's <br />manufacturi~g process. All of the new equipment would be surrounded by fencing similar to <br />what is currently surrounding the existing equipment in that area. Since the installation of the <br />nitrogen tank and vaporizer were not included on the original approved Master Plan, a Master <br />Plan PUD amendment and site plan review are needed for the proposal to go forward. <br /> <br />Currently there are several storage tanks, a vaporizer, and generator to the east of Building B <br />which house the liquid nitrogen that Boston Scientific uses for research and development of their <br /> <br />City of Arden Hills <br />City Council Meetingfor October 27,2008 <br /> <br />\\Metro-inet.us\ardenhills\Planning\Planning Cases\2008\08-025 Boston Scientific PUD Amendment and Site Plan Review (PC <br />Approved) \102708 - CC Report - Boston Scientific PUD Amend and Site Plan Review.doc <br />Page 1 of3 <br />
