MINNEAPOLIS, MN 55441 612/559-1423 FAX: 612/559-2202 MEMORANDUM TO: STEVE ROHLF FROM: JOHN LICHTER 94, SEPTEMBER 2,1993 DATE: RE: CUSTOM MOTORS; PROPOSED WORK PLAN Background and Objective This work plan has been formulated to provide an environmental screening of the Custom Motors site legally described as 7.88 acres consisting of the W245.31' of the E273.81' of the S 1,400' of the W 1/2 of the W 1/2 of the NE 1/4, Section 31, T33N, R26, hereinafter referred to as "the Property". The Property is being considered for a zoning change from agricultural to residential. This work plan is developed to assess whether or not environmental impairment is present on the Property and the likely extent of any such impairment. Further, a baseline of environmental conditions is desired to help assess existing and possible future use of the Property. Custom Motors operates as an automobile salvage yard. Vehicles are received, drained of fluids, inventoried, further disassembled or stored. Approximately 100 vehicle bodies are flattened and removed from the Property on a monthly basis. No appliances are accepted for processing. Recovered fluids are stored in drums and shipped off-site for re-use or disposal. Recovered engine oil or waste oil is used on the Property to operate a used oil furnace. Batteries, tires and other salvaged parts are stored until truck load quantities are reached then shipped off-site for further processing. The Property has reportedly been used for this purpose for more than 30 years.
