Hale stated that the company is <br />in compliance with all regulations as they currently exist. <br /> <br />Bob Heitzer, Technical Director for Minnesota Solvents, discussed <br />the current regulations relating to their business and stated <br />that because of new regulations in the future, they want to make <br />sure they know the requirements of the regulations before they <br />redo the site. Heitzer summarized the reporting of materials on <br />the site and emergency planning activities. <br /> <br />Hale stated to the Commission that Minnesota Solvents is <br />proposing renovation over a three year period and that this is <br />necessary because of financial constraints. Hale added that some <br />of the curbing is in the current contract and that completion of <br />this curbing has been delayed because of installation of <br />additional water lines. <br /> <br />Cecil Wille summarized the current and proposed improvements. <br />Wille discussed proposed spill containment areas and indicated <br />that they would be sized to handle 8500 gallons which is based <br />on the size of the largest tanker truck.

Hale responded that it would be installed as capital is <br />available through 1991. <br /> <br />Maschka questioned how many trucks are on the si te and when. <br />Hale responded that there could be 8 trucks and that they would <br />only be stored on the site fully loaded if there was an early <br />morning delivery. <br /> <br />Maschka asked if the containment was for one truck or for eight. <br />Hale replied that their containment areas have a one truck <br />capacity. <br /> <br />Maschka questioned the capaci ty of the existing truck loading <br />area.
