<br />c. Identify any toxic or hazardous materials to be used or present on the project site <br />and identify measures to be used to prevent them from contaminating ground <br />water. <br /> <br />Normal small quantities of toxic or hazardous materials associated with the construction, <br />operation, and maintenance of commercial office space will be used and present as part of <br />the project. Tenants operating light industrial or manufacturing business may generate <br />additional quantities of toxic or hazardous materials. All such materials will be handled in <br />compliance with applicable state and federal regulations. <br /> <br />21. Solid Wastes; Hazardous Wastes; Storage Tanks <br />a. Describe the types, amounts, and compositions of solid or hazardous wastes to be <br />generated, including animal manures, sludges, and ashes. Identify the method <br />and location of disposal. For projects generating municipal solid waste indicate <br />if there will be a source separation plan; list type(s) and how the project will be <br />modified to allow recycling. <br /> <br />Normal solid waste typical of commercial office space will be generated as part of this <br />project. Normal construction debris will be generated during the construction of the <br />project. Solid waste will be handled by private haulers and disposed of in a licensed solid <br />waste facility in accordance with Ramsey County and state requirements. <br /> <br />b. Indicate the number, location, size and use of any above or below ground tanks to <br />be used for storage of petroleum products or other materials ( except water). <br /> <br />No below ground storage tanks will be part of this project. <br /> <br />22. Traffic. Parking spaces added 959. Existing spaces (if project involves expansion) <br /> <br />Efnimated total Average Daily Traffic (ADT) generated 5.200 . Estimated maximum <br />pE~ak hour traffic generated (if known) and its timing 590. 7-8 a.m. For each affected <br />r(]lad indicate the ADT and the directional distribution of traffic with and without <br />the Project. Provide an estimate of the impact on traffic congestion on the affected <br />r(]iads and describe any traffic improvements which will be necessary. <br /> <br />An estimate of total trip generation was calculated based on the ITE Trip Generation Manual, <br />5th Edition (1991), the February 1995 Update to the 5th Edition (1995) and building square <br />footages from the proposed development plan. The trips generated by the Opus Gateway <br />Business Park site plus background traffic were then assigned to the site access locations and <br />a~jacent roadways. Trips from the proposed Centre Pointe Business Park, to be located <br />northeast of the Opus site, were also included in the year 2001 No Build and Build <br />Alternatives. Using these traffic forecasts, capacity analysis of key intersections was then <br />cOJmpleted. <br /> <br />E1~isting Conditions <br /> <br />Afternoon peak hour (4:30 to 5:30) turning movement volumes were counted in March and <br />April 1997 (see Figure 22.2). Since there is no reason to believe that a.m. trip patterns will be <br />significantly different than p.m. trip patterns, the a.m. pattern was obtained by reversing the <br />p.m. pattern. <br /> <br />2362468 \48185-1II'MN <br /> <br />11 <br />
