ATTACHMENT B: SPECIAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS <br />1. Facilities Plan <br />Completed Facilities Plan. A completed Facilities Plan means a Facilities Plan /Preliminary Engineering Report <br />completed according to the provisions set forth in Minnesota Rules 7077.0272 FACILITIES PLAN FOR <br />WASTEWATER TREATMENT SYSTEMS, excluding parts D and G of Subpart 2a and excluding Subpart 5. <br />Preparation of the Facilities Plan shall also include the following supplemental information that shall be submitted to <br />MPCA in accordance with the Grant Contract: <br />(1) A summary of the proposed project that includes, at a minimum: <br />a. An indication of the daily and annual volumes of reused wastewater that will supplant water <br />currently acquired from a groundwater aquifer; <br />b. The source(s) of water used by the proposed beneficial user(s), and, as applicable, a copy of the <br />Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (MDNR) Water Allocation Permit or Permits according <br />to which the water is acquired; <br />c. Identification of the aquifer; and <br />d. A brief narrative description of the proposed project and its primary components and of the <br />disposition of the reused wastewater and the residual waters and solids deriving from the wastewater <br />after its treatment and beneficial use. <br />(2) Facility water balances for the proposed beneficial provider and beneficial user(s) as presently <br />NPDES/SDS-authorized. The water balance is represented by a line drawing of the water flows for the <br />facilities as presently authorized by their existing NPDES/SDS permits, showing operations contributing <br />water to the effluent and treatment units, and describing the treatment the water receives, including the <br />ultimate disposal of any solid or fluid wastes, including any direct and indirect discharges associated with <br />the wastewaters. Discharges include process and utility wastewaters, including those residuals generated by <br />water treatment. The water balances must illustrate how and where all wastewaters are managed. The water <br />balances must show approximate average and maximum design flows at intake and discharge points and <br />between units, including treatment units, for the proposed beneficial provider and beneficial user(s), and <br />describe the flow frequencies... <br />(3) Complete information on the proposed changes in NPDES/SDS-authorized chemical additions. This <br />information shall clearly identify, in relation to the proposed project: <br />a. The process for which the chemical additive will be used; <br />b. The Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) that include aquatic toxicity, human health, and <br />environmental fate information for the proposed chemical additive; <br />c. A complete product use and instruction label; <br />d. The commercial and chemical names and Chemical Abstract Survey (CAS) number for all <br />ingredients in the additive (if the MSDS does not include information on chemical composition, <br />including percentages for each ingredient totaling to 100%, contact the supplier to have this <br />information provided); and <br />e. The proposed method of chemical application, application frequency, concentration, and daily <br />average and maximum rates of use. <br />(4) A facility water balance that corresponds to the proposed project for the proposed beneficial provider <br />and beneficial user(s). The water balance is represented by a line drawing of the water flows for the <br />proposed project, showing operations contributing water to the effluent and treatment units, and describing <br />the treatment the water receives, including the ultimate disposal of any solid or fluid wastes, including any <br />direct and indirect discharges associated with the wastewaters. Discharges include process and utility <br />wastewaters, including those residuals generated by water treatment (including the treatment of reused <br />wastewater). The water balance must illustrate how and where all wastewaters are proposed to be managed. <br />The water balance shall address alternate sources and methods according to which the Elk River Station of <br />Great River Energy will make up the shortfall if -for whatever reason -the stipulated volume of wastewater <br />treated as prescribed herein and supplied by the City of Elk River to Elk River Station of Great River Energy <br />is unavailable. The water balance must show approximate average and maximum flows at intake and <br />Grant (Rev. 11/08) <br />CR <br />
