The Operator will route traffic from <br />the Operation to the County Road #33 and Highway 169 <br />interchange as directed by the Minnesota Department of <br />Transportation or the City of Elk River. <br /> <br />(11) Dust Control <br /> <br />a. A permit from MPCA regarding air emissions shall be <br />obtained when required and particulate emission <br />standards shall be met by the Operation. This permit and <br />all other correspondence between the Operator and MPCA <br />shall be copied to the City. <br /> <br />b. All equipment shall be located as to reduce dust to <br />adjacent properties. <br /> <br />c. A water truck shall be on site at all times when mining <br />activities are taking place to control dust as necessary. <br />Chemicals shall not be use for dust control. <br /> <br />d. The City reserves the right to require additional <br />measures to be taken, if warranted by dust problems, <br />including but not limited to reducing stock pile heights. <br /> <br />(12) Hours of Oneration <br /> <br />The operator will be allowed to mine, process and sell product on <br />the site from 6:00 a.m. until 2:00 a.m. and maintain equipment <br />24 hours a day, as long as the Operation does not constitute a <br />nuisance to surrounding properties as determined by city staff. <br />If complaints can not be resolved, the Environmental <br />Administrator may, as a remedy, adjust the hours during which <br />mineral excavation activities are conducted, ultimately <br />reverting back to the normal hours of 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., <br />Monday through Saturday. Upon approval of the <br />Environmental Administrator, or his/her designee, sale (hauling <br />product off site) may occur outside of the permitted hours (on a <br />temporary basis not to exceed seven (7) days) to address an <br />unique situation. Alternatives to back-up alarms will be used <br />from dawn to dusk. <br /> <br />(13) Noise <br /> <br />s: \b&e \stever \gravel pits \gravcup-amend bauerly.doc <br />
