112 <br /> • Stormwater management standards, including nutrient <br /> removal, as detailed in Section 6.14 of the UDO. <br /> G. Will existing streams and water features have to be buffered? <br /> APPLICANT: There are streams and other water features on the property <br /> (shown on Sheets C3.0 and C3.1 of the Rezoning Plan) that are to be <br /> buffered consistent with County regulations. These areas are slated for <br /> preservation in designated open space areas within the project. <br /> COUNTY STAFF: All water features are required to be buffered <br /> consistent with Section 6.13 Stream Buffers of the UDO. The anticipated <br /> buffer will be 65 ft. on each side of the stream bank. <br /> H. I see the overhead power lines are being relocated. How will this impact property <br /> owners to the north and west of the project? <br /> APPLICANT: The overhead powerline relocation will remain within the <br /> limits of the proposed development and is not anticipated to impact <br /> adjacent property owners. <br /> COUNTY STAFF: <br /> I. 1 am concerned over ground water contamination fuel leaks/spills impacting <br /> water quality and contaminating our groundwater. What steps are being taken to <br /> address this potential issue and preserve/protect our well water? <br /> APPLICANT: We follow all current design criteria required at the federal, <br /> state, and local levels and are subject to plan review, construction <br /> inspections, and final cover procedures required at all levels. To date, no <br /> travel center fueling system has ever had a reportable release and we <br /> work hard to maintain that standard. As an additional precaution not <br /> required by code, the developer is committed to installing oil-water <br /> separators as a part of the stormwater systems which are to be located in <br /> close proximity to the fueling stations to intercept incidental hydrocarbons <br /> gathered by stormwater runoff so that they can be collected and disposed <br /> of appropriately. <br /> COUNTY STAFF: <br /> J. I am concerned over air quality. How are you going to address the venting of gas <br /> tanks and comply with applicable air quality standards? <br /> APPLICANT: We will comply with all federal, state and local regulatory <br /> requirements. Exposure to gasoline vapors during vehicle refueling is <br /> regulated on the macro scale by the federal government. All vehicles <br /> manufactured today come equipped with a required Onboard Refueling <br /> Vapor Recovery (ORVR) system which captures the vapors displaced <br /> during refueling and keeps them within the vehicle. <br /> COUNTY STAFF: <br /> K. Where will fuel be stored? <br />
