hazardous waste and therefore is not subject to hazardous waste licensing. The Project will not store hazardous waste and therefore is not subject to Sara Title III Tier II Reporting. Typically a fuel service will be used to fuel on-site equipment. The fuel service truck carries a spill containment kit. If on-site fuel storage is needed, the fuel storage tank will be an above ground double walled tank and meet all MPCA petroleum storage tank requirements. Tanks with capacities over 500 gallons located within 500 feet of a Class 2 surface water or over 1,100 gallon capacity located over 500 feet from a Class 2 surface water require registration with MPCA and must meet other MPCA requirements such as labelling, secondary containment, substance transfer safeguards, routine inspections. If tanks with capacities that require registration are brought to the Site, the operator will register the tanks and comply with the applicable MPCA regulations. d. Project related generation/storage of hazardous wastes - Describe hazardous wastes generated/stored during construction and/or operation of the project. Indicate method of disposal. Discuss potential environmental effects from hazardous waste handling, storage, and disposal. Identify measures to avoid, minimize or mitigate adverse effects from the generation/storage of hazardous waste including source reduction and recycling. Hazardous waste will not be generated at the Site. The service truck performing equipment maintenance will take all used fluids generated from maintenance activities to the operator's main shop where they are properly stored until final disposal. The service truck carries a spill containment kit. 13. Fish, wildlife, plant communities, and sensitive ecological resources(rare features): a. Describe fish and wildlife resources as well as habitats and vegetation on or in near the site. The Site currently provides grassland and wooded habitat for wildlife. The MN DNR Biological Survey (MBS) completed surveys of the natural areas and natural communities that were most likely to support rare plant and animal habitats and rare plant communities. The Site does not include any of these areas or communities. In the land near the Site, there is an Oak Woodland - Brushland to the west, as well as an Oak Forest—Dry Subtype to the southwest.14 b. Describe rare features such as state-listed (endangered, threatened or special concern) species, native plant communities, Minnesota County Biological Survey Sites of Biodiversity Significance, and other sensitive ecological resources on or within close proximity to the site. Provide the license agreement number(LA- ) and/or correspondence number(ERDB# 20160452)from which the data were obtained and attach the Natural Heritage letter from the DNR. Indicate if any additional habitat or species survey work has been conducted within the site and describe the results. 14 Barbara C.
