4 <br />F. Water Quality <br />Ground water and surface water quality should not be <br />adversely impacted with this project. There is no <br />planned direct discharge to ground or surface waters due <br />to the operation of the facility. <br />The facility will be subject to the Resource Conserv,tion <br />and Recovery Act (RCRA) or state permitting requirements <br />and county requirements for hazardous waste treatment and <br />storage facilities. The project will also be subject to <br />requirements for transporting hazardous wastes as <br />required by RCRA, the U.S. EPA Regulations for Hazardoc'.s <br />Waste Transporters and Ramsey County regulations, <br />including spill control and truck routing requirements. <br />Project site stormwater related to construction <br />activities will be minimal due to the flatness of the <br />site. Stormwater will be directed to existing municipal <br />facilities adjacent to the site. <br />The paved truck parking and unloading area will have <br />stormwater drainage facilities which connect to the <br />municipal stormwater drainage system. The on -site system <br />will include gates and traps to enable the diversion of <br />surface liquids into internal sumps and control equipment <br />if a waste spill occurs. <br />The project will comply with federal RCRA or state <br />requirements for spill prevention control plans and <br />countermeasures, container adequacy and management <br />practices, and requirements for the design and operation <br />of secondary containment systems. <br />A buried 10,000•-gallon emergency spill containment area <br />for truck loading/unloading, a depressed truck dock area <br />with spill containment in excess of 10,000 gallons, and a <br />containment system for the waste storage area are <br />proposed to be constructed to hold spills and leaks. <br />With regard to the storage area, the floor under the <br />storage containers will be impervious to contain leaks <br />and spills and will be adequately sloped and have <br />sufficient capacity to contain the volume of the largest <br />container or 10% of the volume of the containers located <br />in the storage area. It will also contain a sump or <br />collection area to prevent overflow of the containment <br />system. Also proposed is the construction of a paved <br />spill containment dam separating the truck loading/ <br />unloading area and employee car parking lot. <br />The facility will dispose of approximately 80,000 gallops <br />of wastewater per day (assuming 29 shops) into the <br />municipal/metropolitan sewage treatment system. Waste- <br />water will be pretreated at the facility to ensure <br />
