Dane County Zoning and Natural Resources Standing Committee February 12, 1991 Page 2 2. Stack emissions from the asphalt plants may present a health risk to area property owners, or may damage area crops or nearby wetlands. 3. The close proximity of the asphalt plants relative to the existing quarry blasting may increase the danger of fire and uncontrolled explosions. 4. The existing area fire departments may not have the appropriate equipment to handle the types of fires which could occur at the proposed plant, depending on the size of the on- site storage tanks. 5. Payne & Dolan, Inc. will be allowed to operate the plant for a longer time period than originally requested in their application if they obtain additional projects within the area. The mentioned property owners believe that final granting of this permit and plant operation should be contingent upon: 1. The potable asphalt plants will be removed from the site no later than September 1, 1991. 2. No asphalt or fuel must be stored, consumed or produced on this site, until Payne & Dolan, Inc. can produce documents from the Wisconsin DNR Air Management Group and Wisconsin DILHR Board of Petroleum Inspection and Fire Protection. That the proposed plant is in compliance with state code and regulations regarding: a. Air Pollution b. Diking and Spillage Containment of On-site Petroleum Materials c. Code Required Site Fire Protection 3. The Town of Medina, Dane County and Payne & Dolan, Inc. accept responsibility for any property damage or well water pollution. The property owners will have their water tested by the state hygiene laboratory prior to start of this construction, and within 1 year after the plant is removed from the site. We have spend weeks gathering information from state agencies and sources which may have jurisdiction relative to the proposed plant construction and code compliance. Much of the information is complicated and hard to understand. We believe it is the County's responsibility to protect the property owners and determine what specific codes and ordinances must be adhered to and Payne & Dolan, Inc. will be held liable for. The following is a list of information we have gathered and is enclosed for your review: Attachment 1: Property Owners letter of February 6, 1991 to Township of Medina Board (1 page).
