Dear Mr. Anderson:
The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency(MPCA) staff has reviewed the limited data provided in your e-
mail dated June 30, 2004, for the above-referenced site.
The data provides documentation on petroleum contamination detected during the removal of an
underground storage tank. Based on the levels of contamination reported,MPCA staff will not require an
additional investigation or corrective action at this time for the petroleum contamination described above.
MPCA staff reserves the right to reopen this file and require additional work if in the future more work is
determined by MPCA staff to be necessary. If you, or other parties later come upon any evidence of
contamination other than what was previously reported,you are required by Minnesota law to notify the
MPCA immediately.
The contents of this letter only refer to information reported to MPCA staff for the activities described
above. This letter does not address other types of contamination that may be present at the subject
property. This letter does not release any party from liability for the petroleum contamination under
Minn. Stat. § 115C. (2002), or any other applicable state or federal law.
If you have any questions the regarding the contents of this letter,please call me at

Dear Mr. Anderson:
On March 29, 1999, the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency(MPCA) staff was notified that a
release of petroleum occurred from storage tank facilities that you own and/or operate at the site
referenced above.
A recent review of our files shows that we have not received an excavation report or limited site
investigation report within the time frame outlined in our April 8, 1999, letter to you. MPCA
staff requests that you take the steps necessary to investigate and clean up the petroleum release
and submit either an excavation report or limited site investigation report within 150 days of
receipt of this letter. Failure to meet this deadline may result in reduced reimbursement from the
Petrofund and/or enforcement action taken against you by the MPCA.
Please submit the requested report or respond in writing to indicate your intentions for further
action at this site. If your response is not received by the MPCA within 30 days after receipt of
this letter, MPCA staff will assume you do not intend to comply with this request. In this event,
the MPCA Commissioner may order you to take corrective action at the site. If you do not
comply with the Commissioner's order, it may be enfarced in court or alternatively, the MPCA
could spend its own money cleaning up the release and then seek to recover its costs from you
through legal action. Other possible courses of action against responsible parties who refuse to
cooperate with this agency include, but are not limited to, a reduction to future Petroleum Tank
Release Compensation Account reimbursements to which you might otherwise be entitled, and
substantial civil penalties for failure to comply.

at petroleum release sites. MPCA staff requires that the site investigation fully define the extent
and magnitude of soil and ground water contamination caused by the release. We reserve the
right to reject proposed corrective actions if the requirements of the site investigation have not
been fulfilled. If you have any questions concerning this letter or need additional information,
please call me at 651/297-8580. Please reference the above LEAK # in all correspondence.

Dear Mr. Anderson:
Notice of Release
The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA)has been informed that a release of petroleum has occurred from
storage tank facilities which you own and/or operate. We appreciate your timely notification so this site can be handled
in an efficient manner.
Legal Obligations
Federal and state laws require that persons legally responsible for storage tank releases notify the MPCA of the release,
investigate the release and, if necessary, clean up the release. A person is considered legally responsible for a tank
release if the person owned or operated the tank either during or after the release,unless specifically exempted under the
law. If you believe that you are not legally responsible for this storage tank release, please contact the project manager
listed below.
If you are not legally responsible for the release, but hold legal or equitable title to the property where the release
occurred, you may volunteer to take corrective action. Responsible persons and volunteers who take corrective action
may be eligible for reimbursement for a major portion of the costs of corrective action. The legislature has established
the Petroleum Tank Release Cleanup Account to reimburse responsible persons and volunteers. The account is
administered by the Petro Board which is part of the Minnesota Department of Commerce. Final decisions regarding the
amount of reimbursement are made by the Petro Board. All questions about eligibility and reimbursement should be
directed to the Petrofund staff at 651/297-1119 or 651/297-4203.
Request to Take Corrective Action
The MPCA staff requests that you take steps to investigate and, if necessary, clean up�he release in accordance with the
enclosed MPCA fact sheets. The site investigation must fully define the extent and magnitude of the soil and/or ground
water contamination caused by the release. A report(excavation report and/or remedial investigation/corrective action
design (RUCAD)) which details the results of the investigation or concludes that excavation was sufficient to clean up the
release must be submitted to this office within 10 months of the date of this letter. Please refer to MPCA fact sheets for
information pertaining to the amount of work needed at the petroleum release site(s).

Sites with free product(free-floating petroleum), drinking�water supply impacts, surface water impacts, indoor vapor
impacts, fire or explosion hazards, or ground water impacts which pose a significant threat to public health or the
environment, are considered high priority for staff review. If one or more of these situations apply to your site, an
RUCAD report must be submitted within 90 days. In addition, if you know or discover that there is free-product from a
well, excavation, or borehole, you must notify the MPCA within 24 hours and IMMEDIATELY begin interim free
productrecovery.
If you have not already done so, the MPCA recommends that you hire a qualified consulting firm registered with the
Petrofund staff that has experience in conducting petroleum release site investigations and in proposing and
implementing appropriate corrective actions. A list of registered contractors and consultants is available from the
Petrofund staff. The MPCA reserves the right to reject proposed corrective actions if the requirements of the site
investigation have not been fulfilled. Please note that, under Minn. R. 2890 (Supp. 1997), you must solicit a minimum of
two competitive proposals on a form prescribed by the Petro Board to ensure that the consulting costs are reasonable.
Questions about bidding requirements should be directed to Petrofund staff.
Required Response
MPCA staff requests a response to this letter within 30 days. Please tell us whether you intend to proceed with the
requested work. If you do not respond within this time frame, the MPCA staff will assume that you do not intend to
comply, in which case the MPCA Commissioner may order you to take corrective action. Failure to cooperate with the
MPCA in a timely manner may result in reduced reimbursement from the Petro Board. See Minn. R. 2890(Supp. 1997).
The enclosed fact sheets will provide you with the information necessary to complete a successful investigation and
cleanup. If you have any questions concerning this letter or need additional information, please contact me at
651/297-8580. Please reference the above LEAK#in all correspondence. If you are calling long distance, you may
reach the MPCA St. Paul office by calling 1-800/657-3864.
