<br />Recent soil boring logs from 1994 and 1999 found ground water levels on the site to <br />range from 4.5 to 15 feet below the surface. Based on the soil borings, the average <br />water table elevation was 9.4 feet below ground, at an average elevation of 90 I <br />MSL. The ordinary high water level (OHWL) ofDNR Wetland SOW is 902 MSL, <br />also indicative of the water table elevation. <br /> <br />The described soil borings were to a depth of20 feet below the surface, and no <br />bedrock was encountered, According to Mossier and Cleland, depth to bedrock in <br />the area is approximately 100 feet (Depth to Bedrock Map, County Atlas Series, <br />Atlas C-7, Plate 5 in the Geologic Atlas, Ramsey County, Minnesota, University of <br />Minnesota, St. Paul, 1992). <br /> <br />The described soil boring logs are available for review upon request. <br /> <br />20. Solid wastes, hazardous wastes, storage tanks <br />a. Describe types, amounts and compositions of solid or hazardous wastes, including <br />solid animal manure, sludge and ash, produced during construction and operation. <br />Identify method and location of disposal. For projects generating municipal solid <br />waste, indicate if there is a source separation plan; describe how the project will be <br />modified for recycling. If hazardous waste is generated, indicate if there is a <br />hazardous waste minimization plan and routine hazardous waste reduction <br />assessments. ' <br /> <br />b, Identify any toxic or hazardous materials to be used or present at the site and <br />identify measures to be used to prevent them from contaminating groundwater, If <br />the use of toxic or hazardous materials will lead to a regulated waste, discharge or <br />emission, discuss any alternatives considered to minimize or eliminate the waste, <br />discharge or emission. <br /> <br />The proposed types of site users would generate no wastes that are considered <br />"hazardous". Types of solid wastes generated would include those common to office <br />uses such as paper, cardboard, newspaper, food wastes, metal cans, film plastics, <br />glass, etc. Using data from a 1993 study of wastes generated by various types of <br />businesses (Los Angeles AB 939 Plan: Commercial Generator Strategies, 1993), <br />estimated quantities of solid wastes that will be disposed are as follows: <br /> <br />Type of Sample A vg.
