I. Executive Summary
This application is related to a proposed site plan application (DRC2008-00060). The
applicant, Hamilton Construction, proposes construct a 6000 square foot fabrication
building with associated utilities at its construction yard on South F Street. The
fabrication building will bring together into one building, fabrication activities that are
scattered across a number of existing buildings on site. This is the first phase of a multi-
phase renovation of the construction yard which will include the eventual de~olition of
some existing structures and the construction of new ones.
DWP .review is 'a Type I application review process that requires n~ public notice or
hearing. Staff review the proposed application against objective standards found in the
Springfield Development Code (SDC), Section 3.3-235 Standards for Hazardous
Materials within Time of Travel Zones. Section 3.3-235 prescribes standards prohibiting
certain chemicals and setting standards for the handling and storage of other potentially
hazardous materials that couId.damage Springfield's well fields and pose a threat to
public health and safety. .
Based on the information provided by the applicant, and staff findings stemming from an
analysis of the proposal for compliance with the standards found in Section 3.3-235 of
the Springfield Development Code, the Director concludes that the application is

IV. Criteria for Permit Approval
Type I decisions are made based on clear and objective standards that do not require staff
discretion. Staff reviewed the application against the development standards found in
Section 3.3-235 Standards for Hazardous Materi.als within Time of Travel Zones.
Section 3.3-235 prescribes standards prohibiting certain chemicals and setting standards
for the handling and storage.of other potentially hazardous materials that could damage
Springfield's well fields and pose a threat to public health and safety. These standards
vary according to the Time of Travel Zone (TOTZ) in which the subject property is
located. The following section of this report shows the applicable standards for the
TOTZ and makes findings that stem from a comparison of those standards with the
. applicant's DWP submittal.
Finding #1.. The subject property lies within the 10 - 20-year time of travel zone to the 16th &
Q Street Well. The site is therefore governed by the 10 - 20 year Time of TravelZone (TOTZ)
Standards in Springfield Development Code SDC 3.3-235 (D).
Review Standards for the 10-20 year TOTZ SDC 3.3-235 (D) .
. SDC 3.2-235 states that ''the storage, handling, treatment, use, production or keeping on premises
of more than 20 gallons of hazardous materials that pose a riskto groundwater inaggregate
quantities is allowed only upon compliance with containment and safety standards specifii:d.by
the most recent Fire Code adopted by the City." ,

Upon reviewing the applicants's submittal, against the standards found in SDC 3.3-235 (0), staff
made the following fmdings:
Finding #2. The Hazardous Materials Management Plan (HMMP) submitted with the
application addresses product and container secondary containment, labeling, provision of spill
kits, spill prevention, spill clean-up procedures, and employee training.
Finding #3. The Hazardous Materials Inventory Sheet (HMIS) lists hazardous material
storage areas. The site plan included in Appendix B of the HMMP shows the hazardous material
storage locations listed in the HMIS but does not identifY them specifically as hazardous material.
storage areas.
Finding #4. Hamilton Construction has proposed to use spill basins,.spill pallets, and other
devices to provide secondary containment for its hazardous materials storage.
Finding #5. Section 4.1 of the HMMP inaccurately states that "The City of Springfield
requires that all hazardous material containers ,must have secondary contairnnent regardless of
type, quantity, or size." The DWP standards for approval for l'Wl'~' ~ies in the 10 - 20-year
TOTZ state that "The storage, handling, treatment, use, application, or production or otherwise
keeping on premises of more than 20 gallons of hazardous materials that pose a risk to
groundwater in aggregate quantities is allowed only upon compliance with contairnnent and
safety standards set by the most recent Fire Code adopted by the CitY." The secondary
contairnnent requirements that apply to this site are as prescribed by the Fire Code.
v; Conditions of Approval SDC 3.3-240
SDC 3.3~240 states: "The Director may attach conditions of approval that will minimize negative
impacts of regulated substances on groundwater and ensure that the facility or the proposed
development can fully meet the standards specified in Section 3.3-235.. These conditions may
include, but are not limited to: on-site monitoring wells, Wellhead Protection Area signs, special
storm water facilities or other conditions to address specific risks associated with the proposed
development."
Based on the findings made by staff, the applicant is required to comply with the following
conditions are for approval ofthis application.
Condition #1 The Hazardous Materials Inventory Sheet (HMIS) should be dated and include a
note to be updated annually.
Condition #2 The site plan map in Appendix B of the Hazardous Materials Management Plan
(HMMP) must be labeled "Hazardous Material Storage Locations." Storage locations should be
clearly identified on the map. It is acceptable to make this change with handwritten notes and
color highlighting.
Condition #3 During a site visit conducted on July30, 2008, SUB found that the site currently
has areas of oil residue on the gravel and floor surfaces. Prior to occupancy,' all oil product or
other hazardous material residue on the wound surface or in any uncovered area or any residue-
