Page 6 The project as proposed could conceivably lead to the encouragement of other developments of a similar or supportive nature. At this time, however, none are specifically envisioned or anticipated. IV. Extent to Which the Environmental Effects are Subject to Mitigation By On -going Public Regulatory Authority It is anticipated that the project will require permits or approvals from several governmental agencies on a number of aspects. These agencies have the authority to mandate and regulate numerous items which would lead to the mitigation or prevention of potential environmental affects. Some of the more noticeable items are as follows: (a)• Minnesota Department of natural Resources via their permitting system to protect the wildlife and wetlands in the storm drainage pond located near the MnDOT off -ramp to I-35W near County Road C. (b) The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency for sanitary sewer extensions to insure ground water does not become polluted. (c) The Rioe Creek Watershed District to protect the area's waters from potential degradation and to reduce possibilities of flooding of adjacent properties. (d) The City of Roseville to insure the integrity of the comprehensive plan for land use, approve the sanitary sewer facilities, watermain facilities, storm drainage facilities, internal roadway facilities, as well as enforce the city's noise and shoreland ordinances. All of the above would be to protect the health, safety and welfare of the citizenry. V. Extent to Which Environmental Effects Can Be Anticipated and Controlled As A Result of Other Environmental Studies or Previous EIS9 No other studies or previous EISs are known to exist which would affect this project consideration. CONCLUSIONS 1. Although there will be an increase in the solid waste generated, this will not be a substantial increase in the overall waste production for the area or the community. 2. There are no hazardous wastes anticipated to be produced. 3. The site will be sensitive to erosion and require possible removal of peat, but these aspects can be controlled by the proposed erosion protection actions, and by proper removal and replacement of substandard materials underneath load bearing construction locations. 4. The amount of drainage coming from the site will inoroase, but this will not be substantial and modifications to the existing pond ing facilities plus the inclusion of on -site ponding facilities will mitigate this impact. 5. The activities will not cause a substantial adverse affect on the surface or ground water quality. 6. The air quality will be affected for a short period due to the dust generated from the construction, but this will be relatively minor.
