ISSUE
Dakota Aggregates (a partnership of Ames Construction and Cemstone) received a Large Scale
Mineral Extraction (LSME) permit on December 18, 2012. The LSME included an Ancillary Use
Facility (AUF) which is essentially an industrial park of businesses that use significant amounts of
aggregate in their production. The approved ancillary uses included recycled aggregate production
(RAP), asphalt production, concrete production, concrete product casting yard and a maintenance
facility for the vehicles used in the mine and AUF businesses. The Zoning Ordinance requires that
each of the AUF businesses apply for and receive their own Interim Use Permit (IUP). Tonight,
Gemstone is requesting an IUP use permit for a primary (enclosed) ready mixed concrete plant and a
seasonal ready mixed concrete plant in the same area of the AUF. Each plant requires its own
separate IUP and this Executive Summary and public hearing addresses the primary plant. The
seasonal plant public hearing will also be conducted during the April 22, 2014 meeting.
SUMMARY
Applicant: Gemstone Products Company
Owner: Regents of the University of Minnesota
Location: About 1/8 mile North of CSAH 46 between Station Trail and
Akron Avenue.
Net Acres: 23.73 Acres
Comprehensive Plan Designation: AGR—Agricultural Research
Current Zoning: AG—Agriculture
Legal Authority
The interim use permit approval is a quasi-judicial action,meaning that if the application meets the
City Code, the large scale mineral extraction permit conditions and interim use permit regulations,
then the interim use permit must be approved. Staff supports approval of this interim use permit and
finds that it is substantially in conformance with the approved large scale mineral extraction permit
and the interim use permit regulations with recommended conditions. The detailed analysis of this
finding is provided below.
Site Layout
The 23.73 acre site is located within the designated ancillary use facility and is approximately 250 feet
north of CSAH 46 and directly south of the private AUF access drive (158th Street). Within the 250
foot separation between the cement facility and CSAH 46, there is an area of existing trees 125 feet
wide and a berm that is 16 feet in height. The facility site is located about equal distance from the
Station Trail and Akron Avenue accesses to CSAH 46. The site has two accesses to 158`h Street with
the western access being used by the concrete delivery trucks.
The site is divided into four areas. On the east side of the site is a conveyor from the mining area
that leads to the raw material stockpiles and then these stockpiles will feed the conveyor to the
primary concrete plant. On the north central portion of the site is the primary concrete plant that
includes a building that encloses the concrete ready mix equipment, office, and front end loader for
the site. The building design is discussed in more detail below. In the center of the site is the wash
water weir in which the trucks will back up to the weir and rinse the trucks. The weir will settle out
the fines of the concrete and result in pre-treated water that can be used for the next series of trucks.
The narrative describes that the weir will be constructed by the end of 2015 and a washout pond will
be used until the weir is constructed. In the south central portion of the site will be an exterior
seasonal concrete plant. The seasonal concrete plant will be review more thoroughly in its own IUP
review next on the Planning Commission agenda.
Concrete delivery trucks will drive into the site,go to the weir for washing and then be taken to
either the primary or the seasonal concrete plant. After filling, the trucks will circulate from 158th
Street onto CSAH 46. The LSME requires that the areas in which concrete delivery trucks would
drive must be paved. Cemstone is proposing to pave the concrete production site over a five year
period. Staff finds that this timeline is too broad and inconsistent with the intent of the LSME.
The Minnesota Total Facility Operating Permit (Air permit#03700370-001) was issued with specific
acknowledgement that the site will include some staged development and the paving of the vehicular
2
access road with the staged development. However, a five year paving schedule would not allow the
Planning Commission to evaluate if the paving is complete when evaluating the next IUP. Further,
staff is uncomfortable about granting a 5-year time period and is recommending something less.
Staff has prepared a condition that requires that the paving of the concrete production site shall be
completed by December 31, 2016; that no less than 1/3rd of the site shall be paved each year;and
that the priority of the paving done each year shall consider the area closest to the private AUF road,
the area most traveled by the concrete trucks and the area of the wash water weir.
Building Design
The LSME regulations require that the primary concrete plant must be enclosed within a building.
Gemstone has proposed a precast concrete building with a steel roof. The concrete plant equipment
is enclosed within 42 foot wide and 130 foot long building that is 73 foot 3 inches tall. A conveyor
runs into the west side of the building to supply the raw material and the concrete delivery trucks
drive through the east end of the building to be filled. The building will allow concrete to be
produced 12 months a year. The proposed seasonal plant cannot operate during the winter months.
Attached to the south side of the building is a 40 foot wide by 66 foot long enclosure with 20 foot
tall walls. This attached enclosure contains space for the office, electrical room and the front end
loader for the concrete plant.
Large Scale Mineral Extraction Ordinance and Permit
11-104-1 G. 3. a. Location:The plant shall be located in such a way as to minimize its visibility from an adjacent
residential use or a public right of way:The site for the concrete plants is 250 feet north of CSAH 46 and
is screened by existing trees and a 16 foot tall berm. Staff finds this site is adequately screened from
public views and therefore is comfortable with the location.
11-104-1 G. 3. b. Multiple Ready Mix Concrete Plants:If a facility is to have multiple concrete plants, each
concrete plant shall have its own separate interim use permit. The primary ready mix concrete plant shall have the
equipment, except for silos and the conveyors that transport materials into the building, enclosed within a building:
The primary concrete plant is enclosed within 42 foot wide and 130 foot long building that is 73
foot 3 inches tall. Attached to the south side of the building is a 40 foot wide by 66 foot long
enclosure with 20 foot tall walls. Staff finds this building complies with the ordinance standard.
11-104-1 G. 3. c. Plant Height: The maximum height of any concrete plant shall be one hundred five feet(105'):
The proposed building is 73 feet 3 inches tall and therefore staff finds that this requirement is met.
11-104-1 G. 3. d. Material Stockpiles:Stockpiles associated with these uses shall be limited to a height of sixty feet
(60):The application narrative states that the stockpile will not exceed 60 feet in height.
11-104-1 G. 3. e. Outdoor Storage:All equipment and raw material associated with the cement or concrete plant
must be screened from view from an adjacent residential use or public right of way:The site for the concrete
plants is 250 feet north of CSAH 46 and is screened by a 125 feet wide area of existing trees and a
16 foot tall berm. Staff finds the site is adequately screened.
11-104-1 G. 3.f Hours Of Operation: The hours of operation shall be limited to seven o'clock (7:00)A.M. to
seven o'clock (7:00)P.M. Monday through Saturday unless special permission is granted by the city council within the
interim use permit:Gemstone is requesting 24 hour, 7 day a week operation. The enclosed primary
concrete plant will allow concrete production 12 months a year and often transportation
construction projects require night and weekend delivery. In recognition of this demand and
recognition that urban development is currently more than a mile from this site, staff supports 24
hour, 7 day a week operation with the term of this IUP. This condition will be evaluated when the
3
IUP is up for future renewals. As urban development continues to move into the UMore property
there may come a time when the City will determine that 24 hour operations would be too
disruptive to adjoining residential development.
11-10-4-1 G. 3.g. Haul Routes: Traffic generated by this use shall utilize haul routes approved by the city and other
agencies as required: The concrete production site will access CSAH 46 using the private AUF road
(158`h Street) at either of the accesses at Station Trail or Akron Avenue. Concrete trucks may not
use Biscayne Avenue or any UMore roadway (Akron,Angus,Barbara or Blaine Avenues) to access
CSAH 42. With this specific condition within the IUP, staff finds that this requirement is achieved.
LSME 2012-105 Condition 18: The path of any road licensed vehicles using the concrete processing, asphalt
processing, and vehicle maintenance facility shall be paved with curbing per the City Code:Gemstone is proposing
to pave the concrete production site over the five years period. Staff finds that this timeline is
inadequate. The Minnesota Total Facility Operating Permit (Air permit#03700370-001) was issued
with specific acknowledgement that the site will include staged development and the paving of the
vehicular access road with the staged development. Additionally, a five year paving schedule would
not allow the Planning Commission to evaluate if the paving is complete when evaluating•the next
IUP. Staff has prepared a condition that requires that the paving of the concrete production site
shall be completed by December 31, 2016; that no less than 1/3"d of the site shall be paved each
year;and that the priority of the paving done each year shall consider the area closest to the private
AUF road, the area most traveled by the concrete trucks, and the area of the wash water weir. With
this condition, staff finds that this requirement is achieved.
Interim Use Permit Regulations
11-10-8 E. 1. The extent, location and intensity of the use will be substantially in compliance with the Comprehensive
Plan:The Comprehensive Plan states that concrete plants are incompatible with adjacent residential
uses and discourages interim uses within the 2020 MUSA. Within the timeframe of this
recommended IUP, staff finds that the request is compliant with the Comprehensive Plan.
11-10-8 E. 2. The use will provide adequate ingress and egress to minimize traffic congestion in the public streets:
With the accesses to CSAH 46 via Station Trail or Akron Avenue and the recommended condition
limiting the access to CSAH 42, staff finds the access adequate.
11-10-8 E. .3. The use will not be detrimental to the existing character of the development in the immediate
neighborhood or endanger the public health, safety, and general welfare:The immediate neighborhood land uses
are currently agriculture or agricultural research. Within the term of this IUP, staff finds that the
request will not be detrimental to the public or the neighboring land uses.
11-10-8 E. 4. The use will not impede the normal and orderly development and improvement of the surrounding
property for uses permitted in the district: In 2013, the City adopted the UMore Alternative Urban
Areawide Review (AUAR) which anticipates the development of this area over the next 40 years.
Within the timeframe of this IUP, staff finds that the request will not impede the development or
improvement of the surrounding properties.
11-10-8 E. 5. The use shall, in all other respects, conform to the applicable regulations of the district in which it is
located:With the recommended conditions, staff finds that the request will conform to the applicable
regulations.

Primary Concrete Plant:
An enclosed ready-mix concrete plant will be located in the Ancillary Use Facility.Production in this area
requires a plant capable of storing and mixing the ingredients for various concrete mix designs.The ready-
mix plant site within the AUF will have storage silos for the cement materials and storage tanks for the
liquid additives. The primary concrete plant within the Ancillary Use Facility will be enclosed. A seasonal
concrete plant will be utilized in the building of the primary plant,and then as an auxiliary plant after
construction is complete. The seasonal plant will be portable,and a separate IUP is being submitted to the
city. The construction of the primary concrete plant is anticipated to be completed within 9 to 11 months of
IUP approval; however, it will be completed no later than 18 months of the IUP approval.
The primary enclosed ready-mix concrete plant will be located in the south central portion of the AUF. The
plant will not be located near any residential property; however, it will be located just north of CSAH 46.
The plant and all stock piles will be screened from view from public right of way by existing berms and
mature trees on the north side of CSAH 46. The nearest EIS boundary is located 905' to the east of the
ready-mix concrete facility area,which means the facility will meet the setback requirements of Rosemount
ordinance. The AUF is surrounded on all sides by land owned by the Regents of the University of
Minnesota,who also own the AUF.
The height of the enclosed building will be approximately 80' tall to the peak of the roof. The entire plant
will be enclosed with the exception of some of the cement and cementitious material silos,the drive over
aggregate hoppers,and the aggregate conveyor. In order to load the trucks underneath the plant,the
aggregates, cement,and the supplementary cementitious materials are gravity fed into a central mixer,
combined with water,and then batched into the truck. Because of this,the equipment must be elevated,and
therefore,requires a significantly tall enclosure to house it. The exterior walls of the plant will be precast
concrete, and the roofing will be steel. Renderings of the building are included with this application;
however,the final exterior appearance may differ from the renderings. The approximate size of the primary
concrete plant will be 130'x 82'.
In order to supply the both the primary and seasonal plants with water, a well will be drilled on-site. This
well will provide water not only for the batching of concrete and washing of the trucks,but also potable
water for the employees. The wastewater from the primary plant will be routed into a septic holding tank.
The entrance to the concrete plant area and the area around the primary plant will be paved with concrete.
Cemstone is proposing a 5 year paving plan to complete this. The attached site plan lays out the proposed
phasing of the site paving.
Wash water from the washing of the ready-mix truck drums will need to be handled on-site. Ultimately, a
weir system will be installed to handle this water. The weir will allow sediment from the wash water to
settle out as the water travels from bay to bay. The water can then be recycled and used to wash truck
drums or in the batching of fresh concrete. The weir will be completed by the end of 2015. Until the weir
can be constructed,the trucks will utilize a washout pond. This will be a lined pond, and will be
constructed in accordance with the already issued MPCA NPDES permit(permit no. MNG 490289).
3
The material stockpiles will be primarily located along the perimeters of the concrete production facility.
The stockpiles will vary in height,but will not exceed 60' in height at any point. A majority of the
stockpiles will be stored in concrete bin blocks to prevent erosion of the piles. The stockpiles may include,
but are not limited to concrete sand,mason sand,coarse sand,3/8"gravel, Y2"gravel,3/4"gravel, 1-1/2"
crushed gravel, 1-1/2"round gravel,and 3/4"granite. The stockpiles and associated equipment will be
screened from view from public right of way by berms and existing mature trees on the north side of CSAH
46.
The proposed hours of operation for the concrete plant are 24 hours per day 7 days a week. Hauling
activities associated with the ready-mixed concrete facility will only occur at the AUF access locations with
direct access onto CSAH 46. The trucks will exit out onto 158th Street West,and then to either Akron Ave.
or Station Trail. From Akron or Station Trail,the trucks will turn onto CSAH 46. Any Lighting that is
required for nighttime operations will be shielded to prevent lights from being directed at traffic on public
roadways, and in order to not disturb any traffic or surrounding properties,the level of lighting will not
exceed 1 lumen at the EIS boundary. Noise levels will comply with the regulations established by the
MPCA.
The primary concrete plant is covered under the already issued Minnesota Total Facility Operating Permit
(Air Permit#03700370-001). This permit places limits on production throughput of the plant,as well as
lays out maintenance requirements for control equipment.
The primary concrete plant is covered under the already issued Minnesota NPDES permit number
MNG490289,covering stormwater discharges and the on-site handling of process water. All stormwater
and spill procedures can be found in the previously submitted Dakota Aggregates Storm Water Pollution
Prevention Plan(SWPPP)and Spill Prevention, Control and Countermeasures(SPCC)plan. These plans
encompass the entire site, including the seasonal and primary, concrete plants. The Hydrogeologic Study&
Water Monitoring Plan and the Environmental Contingency Plan which encompasses the entire large scale
mineral extraction operation were also previously submitted.
