UPA • United Power Association P O. Box 800 • Elk River,MN 55330-0800 . (612)441-3121 November 22, 1995 File 8-30-8 Mr. Steven Rohlf Planning & Zoning Administrator City of Elk River P. O. Box 490 Elk River, Minnesota 55330 Re: Application for Renewal of Conditional Use Permit and Solid Waste License Dear Mr. Rohlf: Application is hereby made for re-issuance of the above referenced documents. This includes the following items: Conditional Use Permit & Solid Waste License (one page form) Conditional Use Permit Request (one page form) Agreement to pay costs of review (one page form) • UPA Check for $75.00 Site Plan: The site is represented by one Facilities Layout and also by four separate drawings labeled NW, NE, SW and SE portions of the site. We have included ten sets of these five drawings; eight reduced size (11x17 inch) and two sets of full sized drawings. List of property owners within 350 feet of the UPA parcels. We have included the parcels recently added to the UPA ownership: former Hohlen property northeast of sewage treatment plant and the portion of UPA Drive near the Chamber-of Commerce office. We have included the printed list and the list of mailing labels, both supplied by the county auditor. Other information is as follows: Changes There are no changes in the information submitted in the last approved license application that the City is not already aware of through other regulatory processes or prior written communication. Having been in operation since 1989, the ERS has become a rather stable operation. We continually strive to improve the operation as well as planning for internal modifications which may be necessitated by the stricter emission limitation. Solid Waste Burned During the past 24 months (November 1, 1993 - October 31, 1995) ERS burned a total of 548,527 tons on refuse derived fuel (RDF). This is an average of 22,855 tons per month. • Solid Waste to be Burned UPA projects that ERS will burn approximately 600,000 tons in the next 24 months (November 1, 1995 to October 31, 1997). Given the variation in RDF density of 2 to 4 pounds per cubic foot as fired, the expected volume corresponding with the above-projected weight is 300 million to 600 million cubic feet of RDF.
