City of <br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />INFORMA¥ , ,,; <br /> <br />TO: <br /> <br />FROM: <br /> <br />DATE: <br /> <br />SUBJECT: <br /> <br />Mayor and City Council <br />Bruce West, Fire Chief ~~// <br /> <br />April 17, 2000 <br /> <br />MN Pollution Control Agency Meeting <br />at Elk River Fire Department <br /> <br />The Elk River Fire Department will be conducting a meeting of <br />representatives from the Mississippi River Defense Network and the <br />Minnesota Pollution Control Agency on Thursday, May 11, 2000 at 2:00 p.m. <br />at the Elk River Fire Department. Also invited to this meeting are <br />representatives of facilities within the City of Elk River that have above <br />ground storage tanks and bulk oil storage tank facilities. The reason for this <br />meeting is to show the facility owners the equipment recently donated to the <br />Elk River Fire Department on behalf of the Mississippi River Defense <br />Network. The Mississippi River Defense Network received an appropriation <br />from the 1999 Minnesota Legislature to purchase spill equipment to be <br />donated to various cities along the Mississippi River. The Elk River Fire <br />Department was selected as one of the cities benefiting from the donation of <br />equipment and a trailer for a quick response within our community in case of a <br />spill that may effect the Mississippi River. <br /> <br />The meeting on May 11, 2000 at 2:00 p.m. will give an orientation to facility <br />owners within the community as to the history of the Mississippi River <br />Defense Network and the donation program to various cities along the <br />Mississippi River. On behalf of the Mississippi River Defense Network and <br />Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, I would hke to invite the Mayor and <br />Council to this meeting for an orientation of the equipment recently donated to <br />the Elk River Fire Department. The value of the equipment and mobile trailer <br />donated to the Fire Department is approximately $10,000.00. If you have any <br />further questions in reference to this issue please feel free to call me at the Elk <br />River Fire Department at (763) 441-4919. <br /> <br />S:\offsite\fire\mpcmeet <br /> <br />13065 Orono Parkway · P.O.
