RE: Minneapolis Factory Shoppes
Dear Messrs. Morse and Hale:
The staff of the Air Quality Division (AQD) of the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency
(MPCA) is in receipt of a letter dated November I i;, l 996, from Mr. David Braslau of
David Braslau Associates, Incorporated, and two copies of an application for an Indirect Source
Permit (ISP) for the Minneapolis Factory Shoppes located in Albertville, Minnesota. I will be
the lead person for this application.
The staff of the AQD has fit>ished its completeness review of the ISP application for the
Minneapolis Factory Shoppes. The air quality analysis submitted by David Braslau Associates,
Incorporated, in support of the request for an ISP slows that both the one-hour and eight-hour
maximum carbon monoxide concentrations are well below the state ambient air quality
standards. Therefore, the staff finds the application to be complete and has agreed that the ISP
request be granted.
No public notice is required for this project; however, the MPCA staff or MPCA Citizens' Board
can elect to require a public notice period. o~ to bring the permit issue to the MPCA Citizens'
Board if there is significant public inl:erest.
