If this water will came from <br />on -site wells, an appropriation permit is required. If the water will come <br />from the City of Minneapolis water supply, then the city's appropriation <br />permit will have to modified to reflect the increased wi thdrawl, If the water <br />is contained entirely in the waste stream to the facility, then no permit is <br />necessary. Appropriation permits are required for withdrawl of water greater <br />than 10,000 gpd or 1 million gpy. <br />As mentioned in the EAW, it is very important that adequate measures are taken <br />to prevent contamination of ground or surface water from accidental spills of <br />waste materials. <br />Thank you for the opportunity to review this project. <br />Sincerely, <br />Thomas W.
