Plaisted. <br />Companies <br />kt(�P�' I NCORPOR ATE D <br />March 28, 2016 <br />Plaisted Companies, Inc. is applying for an Interim Use Permit to continue the yard composting <br />operation on parcel 75-115-2200. This began as a joint venture between Plaisted Companies, Inc. <br />and The City of Elk River for a place for the city to bring the yard material to open up space at <br />the Public Works Department. <br />Plaisted Companies now has a professional company, OTI, Inc. operate the yard composting <br />area. OTI puts the material in rows to begin the composting process and they utilize a <br />composting turning machine to help facilitate the process and keep any smell to a minimum. <br />Once the composting process is complete, OTI will screen the material to a usable product which <br />is used as a soil amendment, in garden and planting soils and as a rain garden additive. <br />The total operation is operated with one to two people during the normal hours of our sand and <br />gravel operation. The composting sites are located within our sand and gravel operation and all <br />storm water is retained on-site. There are no utilizes or trees within the composting area. <br />Thank you, <br />Mark Duitsman <br />Chief Operating Officer <br />P.O.
