RE: 019 Cabela's I Emergency Generator
OK thanks Amy, I'll let them know. If they have specific DWP questions I'll have them contact you directly. Staff will also
suggest using a propane or natural gas powered turbine generator for the site, which would address most of the DWP
and stormwater concerns. Plus, they wouldn't have to refill the generator with "fresh" diesel periodically as they would
with this proposed design.

Andy,
Yes, a new diesel generator does trigger the need for a DWP permit. They will need to show plans for
secondary containment of diesel fuel and other associated chemicals (e.g., antifreeze). The last
application to propose secondary containment for the entire unit was Springfield Dialysis. They had a
good proposal, though they don't actually have a generator in place (and they also did not pour a
continuous concrete slab, which would need to be modified if they ever did actually install a generator).

Amy: Attached is a site diagram showing the location of a proposed diesel emergency generator for the Cabela's store.
This feature was not shown on the approved Final Site Plan for the project. Please review the manufacturer cutsheets
and advise if the proposed style and location of generator can be accommodated. The applicant advises that secondary
containment should be built-in to the generator design. However, because the presence of a diesel-fueled generator
was not contemplated in the Drinking Water Protection review for this site, please let me know if this triggers the
requirement for a DWP permit. Thanks!

Hi Andy,
o
Thank you for returning my call earlier this evening. Thank you also, in advance, for coordinating the review of the
proposed location for our emergency generator. Please let me know if you need any additional information to aid your or
any other department's review.
Take care,
Scott
