ATTACHMENT A MODIFICATIONS TO 1992 APPLICATION MATERIALS May 17, 1994 On April 24, 1992, the Division of Solid Waste submitted an application to the City of Roseville for an Interim Use Permit to develop a household hazardous waste collection site. Included were Attachment 1, a site plan, and Attachment 2, a description of the intended use of the property and proposed construction. Based on the County's experience, the Division is requesting several minor changes in site operations. These changes will help to improve service for residents of Roseville and the County. This attachment describes the County's proposed minor modifications to those attachments. A revised site plan is included in this attachment. 1. Hours and Days the Site is Open to the Public Current Operations. As described in Attachment 2 of the 1992 application (on pages 1 and 2), the site would be open to the public on Fridays from noon to 7 p.m. and on Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. during up to eight weekends each' in fall and spring. Proposed chanles. The Division is requesting that the hours of public operat1on be rom 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Thursdays and Fridays and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturdays. Rationale. The requested change in weekday hours reflects the Div1s10n's analysis of patterns of satellite facility use by residents. Adding Thursdays will provide flexibility for the Division in providing HHW services. Satellite sites in Saint Paul were opened on Thursdays during 1993. While the Division does not have immediate plans to operate the Roseville site on Thursdays during 1994, allowing such use will provide the Division with flexibility in future years or in the case of unforeseen circumstances during 1994. 2. Bulking of Gasoline and Other Flammables On Site Current Operations. As described in Attachment 2 of the 1992 application (on page 2), waste containers would not be opened at this site unless it was necessary to verify contents. Containers would be packed in drums, placed into a truck, and then transported to the main \ Dynex facility in Mounds View at the end of each operating day. Proposed Chanqes. The Division is requesting that its contractor be allowed to used its trained HHW technicians to consolidate gasoline and other flammable liquids into a 55-gallon closed-head drum on site. The drum would be placed on heavy plastic sheeting curbed to contain any spills, and surrounded by absorbent booms. The drum would be surrounded by orange traffic cones, be positioned at least 20 feet from any source of ignition (such as traffic), and be grounded. Other
