Findings of Fact - page 7 Metropolitan Metals Recovery EAW September, 1983 M. Energy Adequate energy resources and sewer and water service capacity are available to the site.(EAW) Improved electrical service and sewer conveyance (a larger sanitary sewer pipe will be installed from the facility; see EAW Attachment, letter from Pope -Reid Associates, incorporated, dated June 21, 1983) must be installed to serve the warehouse prior to commencement of waste processing in April of 1984. II.. CUMULATIVE POTENTIAL EFFECTS OF RELATED OR ANTICIPATED FUTURE PROJECTS L'ven if the number of shops utilizing the proposed facility were to increase to 45 shops (the project magnitude used as an example for a large central recovery facility (CRF) in the EAW Attachment, letter from Pope -Reid Associates, Incorporated), no aCverse environmental impacts are expecte"" due to operation of the facility. Any increase in volume of wastes to be processed by the facility will be subject to federal RCRA, TSCA and to state permit and county licensing requirements. Moreover, wastewater from the project will have to meet.the MWCC's or any applicable federal wastewater pretreat- ment standards. MPCA Division of Water Quality staff do not expect that combined sewer overflow discharges from the large CRF as described above pose a threat to river water quality. (EAW, EAW errata) III. EXTENT TO WHICH ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS ARE SUBJECT 70 MITIGATION BY ONGOING PUBLIC REGULATORY AUTHORIT'i The project is subject tos- 1. Federal RCRA and MPCA hazardous waste treatment and storage facility permits and TSCA requirements which will include re- quirements for spill prevention control plans and counter- measures, container adequacy specifications and management practices, requirements for the design and operation of secondary containment systems, and requirements for trans- porting wastes. The facility must also obtain a hazardous waste transportation storage and processing license from Hennepin Cn„-ty. (EAW) In addition, air quality emission surveillance monitoring systems for the storage and processing equipment will be required under RCRA.
