VII. <br />consists of recycling glass, plastic, aluminum, cardboard, and paper. The <br />programs are sponsered by both student groups and facilities statf. The College <br />also recycles all florescent light bulbs, old computers, and other electronic <br />equipment. <br />The idea of food waste recovery is an interesting idea that the College wi/l <br />investigate further. <br />2. Comment: Trash: The College is encouraged to have its contracted trash <br />haulers take their trash to a licensed waste processing facility, such as the <br />refuse derived fuel facility in Newport, MN, operated by RRT, instead of to a <br />landfill. <br />Response: Comment acknowledged. <br />3. Comment: Construction Waste: The�Col�ege is encouraged to have its <br />contractors recycle, or recover for,�bl�tass energy, as much construction waste <br />as possible, instead of sending it to � landfill ,�A;,, <br />����^ ��� ��A <br />Response: The College agrees and w�ll work w�th both general contractors and <br />the architects to ensure, whenever possrble;: that constructron waste is recycled <br />to avoid using landfil/s. � <br />, ��,�. <br />: �.�. <br />4. Comment: Sustainable Design: The College is�e"ncauraged to have the <br />���.��,� <br />architectural and landscape design for its new imPr�ovements be as <br />environmentally sustainable as possible, using standards such as those for the <br />LEED ncoa`ram���{ e_ <br />: Although,the College is not seeking a LEED certified building, the <br />seeking"ways to incorporate ideas of sustainability. The archifects do <br />EED�and have;:been through the professional accreditation program. <br />portation (Mn/DOT) <br />Tod Sherman,`Planning�Supervisor <br />Comment: Water Resources: A drainage permit will likely be required. The <br />proposed development will need to maintain existing drainage rates (i.e. the rate <br />at which stormwater is discharged from the site must not increase). It does <br />appe:ar thatnstormwater runoff will be directed to Mn/DOT right-of-way. Please <br />submit hy,arologic and hydraulic models for both the existing and proposed <br />conditi�ons for the 10 and 100-year design events. Drainage area maps for the <br />existing and proposed condition must be provided with flow arrows and <br />markings referring to the modeling. <br />Response: Any impacts to Mn/DOT right-of-way associated with the proposed <br />capita! improvements will be submitted for review and approval. Since the <br />proposed capital improvements are planned for the next 12 to 20 years, al! <br />improvements are conceptual in nature. The College will submit the requested <br />analysis to Mn/DOT when final desrgn of the improvements is completed. <br />TKDA Project No. 13529.002 Page 15 Draft Date: July 9, 2007 <br />
