ADC Manufacturing Facilities
ADC Telecommunications(ADCT)is a large corporation made up of several divisions located throughout the country. it designs and
manufactures a variety of equipment and systems that are used by the telecommunication and cable industries worldwide.
There are two facilities located in Bloomington,MN. Both of these facilities are currently being considered for relocation to Shakopee,
MN. These are part of the BROADBAND CONDUCTIVITY GROUP DIVISION of ADCT. Located within these facilities are two unique
organizations.
The first is an engineering organization whose primary purpose is to design,develop and market products for the copper and wireless
needs of the industry. These products are both mechanical and electrical in nature. This organization is made up of marketing type
personnel,a large and diverse engineering organization,and various support organizations such as product assurance labs to test
and verify product performance.
The second organization is a fairly large and diverse manufacturing operation. Very little product assembly is performed here as its
focus is strictly component level manufacturing. The primary technologies that we utilize within this operation include:
Injection molding of engineering grade plastics
Sheet metal fabrication

Continuous flow electrostatic powder painting
, Punch press and precision progress die stamping
Precision turning with single-spindle Swiss as well as multi-spindle type machinery
Precision tool and dies for making molds,dies and custom equipment
As part of this organization, significant infrastructure is needed for materials procurement, shop planning, facility and machine
maintenance,manufacturing,engineering,etc.
PHYSICAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS
The construction and operation of the proposed ADC Telecommunications manufacturing facility will have physical and environmental
impacts. The physical impact to the site will be change of land cover from rural grassland,brush and wooded land to an industrial,highly
impervious surface. This change in surface cover will increase the rate and volume of storm water runoff which is generated from the site,
as well as increase pollutant loads in storm water runoff.
The manufacturing facilities proposed to be located at this site will discharge wastewater into the existing sanitary sewer system. Portions
of the wastewater discharged from this site will be the result of paint facilities.Wastewater disposed of from the painting facilities is high
in phosphates and will be partially treated through dilution prior to discharge into the sanitary sewer system. In addition,there are impacts
associated with air quality from increased traffic,as well as manufacturing processes.
CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE
Construction is anticipated to begin in October, 1996 and continue through October, 1997.
CONSTRUCTION DESCRIPTION
The building will consist of a one-story manufacturing(high bay)facility with an attached two-story office building. The office portion is
located on the west side of the manufacturing facility. The main entrance will be located at the south end of the office,facing to the south
and west. The loading docks arelocated on the east side of manufacturing. The exterior wall materials will be masonry and architectural
precast panel with large areas of glazing around the manufacturing and office portions of the building. Parking will be located east and
south of the building.

9. Land Use Describe current and recent past land use and development on the site and on adjacent lands. Discuss the compatibility
of the project with adjacent and nearby land uses;indicate whether any potential conflicts involve environmental matters. Identify
any potential environmental hazard due to past land uses,such as soil contamination or abandoned storage tanks.
The site located on part of Lot 1,Block 2 of the Valley Park Eleventh Addition in Shakopee,Scott County,Minnesota. The property
is located within the northwest quarter of the northwest quarter of Section 10,Township 115 North, Range 22 West. Figure 1 in
Appendix A identifies the location of the property and a diagram showing the property boundaries and items of environmental interest
is included in Figure 3 in Appendix A.
The property is currently undeveloped and is bounded by Park Place Drive to the west;ADC Telecommunications,Inc.Warehouse
to the north;the FMG-Tsumura property to the east:and 12th Street and undeveloped land to the south.
Historical research and review of local offices confirmed that the property was undeveloped and has been utilized for agricultural
purposes since at least 1937_
FMG-Tsumura, located adjacent to the east side of the property was noted on the Voluntary Investigation Cleanup (VIC) list.
Groundwater contamination has been identified at the site. The source of contamination has been determined to be off-site. The latest
groundwater data collected from the site in March and August of 1990 indicated that no VOCs were identified in the monitoring wells
at the FMG-Tsumura site. The debris identified at the site was removed and testing indicated that remaining impacts appear minimal.
The MPCA subsequently issued a limited''No Action"letter for corrective actions taken at the site.
A subsurface investigation conducted by ADC Telecommunications in May of 1996 did not reveal the presence of stained or odorous
soils,nor debris. Water samples collected from four groundwater sampling wells,MW-1 through MW-4,were submitted for VOCs,
RCRA metals(dissolved),and DRO analysis. The results of the analyses indicated that no VOCs and DRO were identified above the
method detention limit in the samples analyzed. Low levels of RCRA metals,barium,and chromium were noted in the groundwater
samples. The levels detected are likely an indication of an ambient condition.

The results of the subsurface investigation indicated no evidence of debris or a release of hazardous substances or petroleum to soils
at the property. In addition,analyses of groundwater samples collected from the monitoring wells on the property did not indicate the
presence of a release.
10. Cover Types Estimate the acreage of the site with each of the following cover types before and after development(before and after
totals should be equal):

11. Fish,Wildlife,and Ecologically Sensitive Resources
a. Describe fish and wildlife resources on or near the site and discuss how they would be affected by the project. Describe any
measures to be taken to minimize or avoid adverse impacts.
The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources(DNR)Fisheries and Wildlife District Offices were contacted to determine if fish
or wildlife might be affected. We are currently waiting for a reply from Darrell Ellison of the DNR concerning the impact this project
would have on any existing fisheries or wildlife habitat at this site.
There are concerns regarding storm water runoff that may indirectly affect fish habitat off the site. Currently storm water runoff
generated from this site will be conveyed to the south into a regional storm water detention/treatment system known as the"K-Mart
Linear Pond"located along the north side of the TH 101 by-pass. This system has been sized to accommodate and treat storm
water runoff generated from 925 acres. it is the City's intent to provide treatment in accordance with the City's overall
Comprehensive Water Resource Management Plan prior to discharging any storm water from this site into the Dean's Lake Outlet
Channel which is directly tributary to the Minnesota River. Therefore,there should be no significant impact on water quality
associated with storm water runoff being discharged from this site.
b. Are there any state-listed endangered,threatened,or special-concern species;rare plant communities;colonial waterbird nesting
colonies;native prairie or other rare habitat;or other sensitive ecological resources on or near the site? o Yes ❑ No
If yes,describe the resource and how it would be affected by the project. Indicate if a site survey of the resources was conducted.
Describe measures to be taken to minimize or avoid adverse impacts.
The Natural Heritage Program was contacted regarding the presence of any fish,wildlife or vegetation on or near the site that
may be listed as State endangered,threatened or special-concern species. Phone conversations have been held with Mary Miller
of the Natural Heritage Foundation and we are currently awaiting a response concerning the occurrence of any of these species
at this site. However,past research in the development of the City's Comprehensive Water Resource Management Plan would
indicate that species of concern are not present at this site.
12. Physical Impacts on Water Resources Will the project involve the physical or hydrologic alteration(dredging,filling.stream diversion,
outfall structure,diking,impoundment)of any surface water(lake,pond,wetland,stream,drainage ditch)? a Yes a No
If yes,identify the water resource to be affected and describe: the alteration,including the construction process:volumes of dredged
or fill material;area affected;length of stream diversion;water surface area affected;timing and extent of fluctuations in water surface
elevations;spoils disposal sites;and proposed mitigation measures to minimize impacts.
The US Army Corp. of Engineers has issued a no wetland declaration for the site and a copy of this letter is attached in the
Appendix.
13. Water Use
a. Will the project involve the installation or abandonment of any wells? a Yes o No
For abandoned wells give the location and Unique well number. For new wells,or other previously unpermitted wells,give the
location and purpose of the well and the Unique well number(if known).

existing appropriation. Discuss the impact of the appropriation on ground water levels.
c. Will the project require connection to a public water supply? • Yea a No
If yes,identify the supply,the DNR water appropriation permit number of the supply,and the quantity to be used.
Water will be supplied by the City of Shakopee Public Utilities Commission(SPUC). Contact was made with Joe Adams of SPUC
and the DNR water appropriations permit number for the City of Shakopee well which serves this site is 80-6205. Groundwater
aquifers are the source of Shakopee's public water supply.
14. Water-related Land Use Management Districts Does any part of the project site involve a shoreiand zoning district,a delineated
100-year flood plain,or a state or federally designated wild or scenic river land use district? ❑ Yes • No
If yes,identify the district and discuss the compatibility of the project with the land use restrictions of the district.
15. Water Surface Use Will the project change the number or type of watercraft on any water body? o Yes ■ No
If yes,indicate the current and projected watercraft usage and discuss any potential overcrowding or conflicts with other users or fish
and wildlife resources.
16. Soils Approximate depth(in feet)to:
Ground water: minimum 33 average. 37 Bedrock: minimum 20 average 30
Describe the soils on the site,giving SCS classifications,if known.(SCS interpretations and soil boring logs need not be attached.)
Two soil series have been classified by the Soil Conservation Service(SCS)for the site. The majority of the site has been classified
by the SCS as Zimmerman fine sand_ Zimmerman soils are deep,excessively drained sands. These soils have low available moisture
capacity and rapid internal drainage and permeability. The water table is at a depth below 10 feet in all seasons. Zimmerman soils
are subject to wind erosion.
The site also contains the Duelm series. Duelm soils are deep.moderately well drained loamy sands. Duelm soils have very low
available moisture capacity. The water table is at a depth of 3 to 5 feet during wet seasons. Duelm soils have rapid internal drainage
and rapid to very rapid permeability. These soils are subject to wind erosion.
Based on subsurface environmental and geotechnical investigations,areas of the site in the vicinity of the proposed building are
underlain by approximately 4 to 8 feet of silty sand and sand fill material. Other areas appear to be underlain by native soil,which
consists of silty sand or sand with silt(SM)underlain by poorly graded sand(SP). Bedrock consists of dolomite associated with the
Shakopee Dolomite of the Prairie du Chien Group,
17. Erosion and Sedimentation Give the acreage to be graded or excavated and the cubic yards of soil to be moved:
acres 21.5 ; cubic yards 21,000 . .
Describe any steep slopes or highly erodible soils and identify them on the site map.
Describe the erosion and sedimentation measures to be used during and after construction of the project.
The soils on the site are of the Zimmerman fine sand and Duelm series which are subject to wind erosion. There are no steep slopes
,12%located on the site.
Temporary erosion and sedimentation measures to be used during construction include silt fences and possible seeding(depending
on the length of time soil is exposed)of exposed soils. Permanent erosion control measures include sod/seeding or placement of
impervious surfaces over exposed soils.
13. Water Quality-Surface Water Runoff
a. Compare the quantity and quality of site runoff before and after the project. Describe methods to be used to manage and/or treat
runoff.

The existing site is primarily brush and grass land with a few wooded areas. The development of this site includes the addition
. of approximately 14 acres of impervious surface area. The result of this land use change will be an increase of 1.2 acre-feet of
storm water runoff volume in a one-year storm event and 1.8 acre-feet in a ten-year storm event. The total volume of runoff
generated by this site in the one-year storm is approximately two acre-feet,and four acre-feet in the 10-year event. The quality
of runoff generated from this site should be typical of industrial sites with higher concentrations of total suspended solids and
nutrients than runoff from the existing conditions. It is anticipated that no unique contaminants will be found in storm water runoff
discharged from this site,as all manufacturing and storage materials will not be exposed to contact by precipitation.
Storm water runoff generated from this site will be directed to the south and into a regional storm water treatment and detention
basin known as the K-Mart Linear Pond. This pond is located on the north side of TH 101 by-pass. Storm water detention and
treatment will take place in this regional storm water system as outlined in the City's Comprehensive Storm Water Management
Plan. This regional system will reduce the discharge rate from not only this site but an additional 900 acres to 1/3 cfs per acre
and provide treatment to NURP recommendations.
It is anticipated that the regional system will be completed simultaneously with this project and that impacts from water quality
or water quantity from the development of this site will be mitigated by the K-Mart regional pond.
b. Identify the route(s)and receiving water bodies for runoff from the site. Estimate the impact of the runoff on the quality of the
receiving waters. et the runoff may affect a lace consult TAW Gutdetnes"about whethera nutrient budget enaysis iz needecr)
Storm water runoff generated from this site will be directed to the K-Mart Linear Pond located on the north side of the TH 101 by-
pass as noted above. Water discharged from this regional storm water detention and treatment facility will be directed to the
Dean's Lake Outlet Channel which will then convey water to the north and into the Minnesota River. The City's Comprehensive
Storm Water Management Plan is in compliance with the Metropolitan Council's interim strategies for reducing non-point source
pollution to all metropolitan water bodies. This document states that the goal of the Metropolitan Council is to reduce the overall
pollutants to the Minnesota River by 40%. The City of Shakopee has prepared a Comprehensive Storm Water Management Plan
which is in compliance with these guidelines and the systems proposed for this location should perform adequately to meet or
exceed these goals,thus reducing the impact to water quality on downstream water bodies. Storm water rate control and
treatment will occur prior to any water being discharged into the Dean's Lake Outlet Channel.
19. Water Quality-Wastewaters
a. Describe sources,quantities,and composition(except for normal domestic sewage)of all sanitary and industrial wastewaters
produced or treated at the site.
The amount of water discharged by the present facility for the 1995 time period was approximately the following:
Cooling water: 125,410 gallons
Domestic water: 2,771,120 gallons
Industrial water: 4,212,780 gallons
These figures were taken from the 1995 DMRs as reported to the Metropolitan Council of Wastewater Services. The new facility
will most likely double the cooling and industrial use and most likely 112 of the domestic use.
1995 paint and process water voktmes averaged approximately 12.701 gallons per day 1995 total facility water volumes
averaged approximately 23,701 gallons/day. (Numbers taken from two sampling periods by MCWS)
The composition of wastewater from this site is anticipated to be approximately the same as the analytical results from the existing
Bloomington facilities. The analytical results of waste water sampling at that facility indicate the following composition;

b. Describe any waste treatment methods to be used and give estimates of composition after treatment,or if the project involves
on-site sewage systems,discuss the suitability of the site conditions for such systems. Identify receiving waters(including ground
water)and estimate the impact of the discharge on the quality of the receiving waters. /n the dIsctraps may affect a lake consult-EAW
Guidelines"about',Mather a nutnan(budget and analysis is needed)
The only waste treatment will be elementary neutralization of the phosphating tank solution(s)used on the powder paint lines.
These solutions will be neutralized by dilution prior to discharge to the sanitary sewer system. The volume of this discharge is
approximately 2200 gallons per event and occurs
once per month. So, with three activepaint lines, we would
approximately 6600gallons of this expect
xs
type of discharge occurring in a month's period of time The ultimate use of this facility does
include the possible addition of a fourth paint line and a third degreaser.
c. If wastes will be discharged into a sewer system or pretreatment system,identify the system and discuss the ability of the system
to accept the volume and composition of the wastes. Identify any improvements which wilt be necessary.
AN waste water discharges from this site are anticipated to be into the inplace sanitary sewer system which carries waste water
to the Blue Lake Treatment System. This waste water system has been sized and designed to accommodate discharges from
this industrial site as welt as the entire industrial park.
20. Ground Water-Potential for Contamination
a. Approximate depth(in feet)to ground water .. _.33 minimum; 35 average.
b. Describe any of the following site hazards to ground water and also identify them on the site map:sinkholes;shallow limestone
formations/karst conditions;sods with high infiltration rates;abandoned or unused wells. Describe measures to avoid or minimize
environmental problems due to any of these hazards.
Sinkholes,shallow limestone formations and karst conditions are not exposed at the surface on the site. Subsurface investigation
indicates that dolomite occurs beneath the site at a depth of 20 to 30 feet. Karst conditions have not been documented in the
dolomite bedrock. The unconsolidated materials overlaying the bedrock generally consist of relatively permeable sand deposits
which generally have high infiltration rates. The Geologic Atlas of Scott County indicates that the shallow water table in the vicinity
of the site is highly susceptible to contamination. Four monitoring wells are currently located on he site but will be abandoned
and removed prior to construction of the facility. In order to minimize potential environmental problems, the wells should be
abandoned and sealed in accordance with Minnesota Department of Health regulations.
c. Identify any toxic or hazardous materials to be used or present on the project site and identify measures to be used to prevent
them from contaminating ground water.
Outside storage tanks containing methylene chloride.Machine Cutting Oils,Stoddard Solvent,and a waste oil tank. Also stored
on-site will be cryogenic liquids,such as liquid oxygen and liquid nitrogen. Outside aboveground storage tanks will be contained
in berms large enough to contain at least the largest tank size spilled as required by State and Federal codes.

The estimated trip generation is based on information found in the 5th edition of the Institute of Transportation Engineers Trip
Generation Manual.
The primary impacted roadways adjacent to the site are 12th Avenue on the south and Park Place to the west of the site. Access will
be provided from both of these roadways.
Traffic will be distributed to the regional roadway system(ie;TH 101 and Scott CR 83)by two designated collector roadways, 12th
Avenue is a east-west roadway which will carry traffic from the site to CR 83. Valley Park Drive is a north-south roadway that will carry
traffic from the site to TH 101 It is estimated that the traffic from the site will be distributed 50-50 to these roadways.
The figure in Appendix A illustrates the existing and proposed Average Daily Traffic(ADT)volumes on the impacted roadways as well
as the estimated traffic distribution from the proposed site.
The critical areas that would indicate operational problems due to the traffic generated from the proposed sites are the driveways to
the site and major intersections. The primary access driveways to the site are from 12th Avenue which is a four-lane roadway(Iwo
lanes in each directions). This roadway section will acc mmodate any traffic which would be turning into or out of the proposed site.
The access onto Park Place is a secondary access and will have little volume and will not be impacted by the proposed traffic into or
out of the site.
The regional impacts would be at the intersections of 12th Avenue and CR 83 and Valley Park drive at TH 101. The intersection of
Valley Park Drive and TH 101 is currently a signalized intersection and would have sufficient capacity to handle any proposed site
generated traffic. The intersection of 12th Avenue at CR 83 is currently stop sign controlled. This intersection should be considered
for traffic signalization with the proposed expansion of this facility.
Based on this data,the proposed site traffic now,and in the future,will have little or no impact on the existing roadway systems. The
only roadway improvement that should be considered is the signalization of the intersection of 12th Avenue at CR 83.
23. Vehicle-related air emissions Provide an estimate of the effect of the project's traffic generation on air quality.including carbon
monoxide levels. Discuss the effect of traffic improvements or other mitigation measures on air quality impacts. pr me project,nvoives

The proposed project will involve development of 336,098 SF of building area and an ultimate expansion of 700 parking stalls. The
development does not require an Indirect Source Permit(ISP) because fewer than 1.000 new parking spaces will be provided.
However,a carbon monoxide analysis was performed to document comphance with applicable ambient air quality standards.
To screen the project for potential air quality conformance problems,the Mn/DOT simplified analysis procedure was utilized. One
receptor location was used for the analysis. The background carbon monoxide levels used for the analysis were non-rural one-hour
in eight-hour levels indicated in the Mn/DOT guidelines which are 2.5 PPM and 1.5 PPM respectively.
The results of the analysis indicate that the roadways adjacent to the proposed facility will be within the current MPCA guidelines of
30 PPM for a maximum one hour reading and 9 PPM for an average eight hour reading. The following Table represents the results
of the analysis for the proposed project years.

During construction,particular emissions will temporarily increase due to the generation of fugitive dust. The following dust control
measures will be undertaken as necessary:
1. Minimize the period and extent of areas being exposed and regraded at any one time.
2. Spraying construction areas and aN roads with water,especially during periods of high wind or high levels of construction activity.
3. Minimize the use of vehicles on unpaved surfaces.
4. Covering or spraying material piles and/or truck loads.
Odors
The proposed project is not anticipated to involve any process that would generate any odors outside of the buildings.

Existing and projected 1999 and 2001,noise levels were determined for a receptor adjacent to the site off of 12th Avenue.The Federal
Highway Administration(FHWA) Level Two Highway Traffic Noise Prediction Model, Stamina 2.0 was used for this analysis. The
Traffic Noise Model on which this computer was based was developed the Federal Highway Administration and is documented in a
report entitled FHWA Highway Traffic Noise Prediction Model(FHWA-RD-77.106).
The model uses:
1. The volume and type of vehicles on the roadway;
2. Vehicle running speeds;
3. The physical characteristics of the roadway(e.g.horizontal and vertical alignment);and
4. Any physical features between the roadway and the receptor that may mitigate the noise,such as buildings or noise walls. Output
is issued in the form of L10 and LEO values.
The noise level analysis for the receptor indicated that the levels will increase in 1999 and 2001 over what they are today. However,
all levels are wed within the noise level standards for an industrial facility as indicated in the previous Table. The following Table
indicates the results of the existing,predicted and projected noise levels.
