King Generating Plant (King) that is zoned for industrial use and is currently developed as a boat landing (Figure 1). The boat landing consists of a —900 foot access road (off of a King Plant maintained road) to the St. Croix River. Further, the landing has a —75 foot by —125 foot parking area/turn- around located approximately 125 feet back from the shoreline. In the past, the public had access to the boat landing until crime and other security issues drove Xcel Energy to close the landing. The property is still being maintained as a boat landing and is used a few times each year by Xcel Energy personnel as well as Federal, State, and Local agencies for gaining access to the river. Proposed Use as Barge Staging Area: MAX TODO MARINE SERVICES INC. is seeking to utilize the Xcel Energy owned property and boat landing as a barge staging area. The proposed use as a barge staging area is depicted in Figure 2 and will consist of the following activities: 1) The boat landing will be used as a barge staging area during non -frozen river conditions; 2) A barge will be moored in the St. Croix River, oriented perpendicular to the shoreline, at the boat landing when not performing marine activities in the river; 3) A barge will be moored in the St. Croix River, oriented perpendicular to the shoreline, at the boat landing during periods of loading/unloading of equipment and materials; 4) Vehicle(s), excavator(s), skid loader(s), dump truck(s), a crane, and other equipment as needed to support the barge's river -based operations will be staged in the parking area; 5) Materials will be temporarily staged in the parking area during periods of barge loading/unloading; 6) Routine barge operation and maintenance will take place in the parking area and along the shoreline as needed; 7) All work associated with the barge activities will occur between 7:00 AM and 5:00 PM, unless the equipment is needed for response to an emergency (e.g. recovery of a sunken boat); 8) No bulk fuel tanks will be stored at the boat landing; and 9) No external light sources, other than vehicle and equipment lights, will be installed or otherwise used. Conditional Use Permit Amendment: Given the fact that Xcel Energy is owner of the property that the proposed barge staging area will be located on and also the fact that the property is immediately adjacent to King Plant property, MAX TODO MARINE SERVICES INC. is submitting an application to amend King's Conditional Use Permit in order to allow the activities set forth in this fact sheet. Other Permitting Needs: MAX TODO MARINE SERVICES INC. is responsible for obtaining all other required permits /approvals needed to operate a barge staging area at the Xcel Energy boat landing (e.g. Army Corps of Engineers, Dept. of Natural Resources, etc...).
