Based on the information provided, the MPCA has closed the petroleum tank release site file. The closure of the petroleum tank release file means that the MPCA does not require any additional investigation and/or cleanup work at this time or in the foreseeable future. Please be aware that file closure does not necessarily mean that all petroleum contamination has been removed from this site. However, the MPCA has concluded that any remaining contamination, if present, does not appear to pose a threat to public health or the environment under current conditions. The MPCA reserves the right to reopen this file and to require additional investigation and/or cleanup work if new information, changing regulatory requirements or changed land use makes additional work necessary. If you or other parties discover additional contamination (either petroleum or nonpetroleum) that was not previously reported to the MPCA, Minnesota state law requires that the MPCA be immediately notified. You should understand that this letter does not release any party from liability for the petroleum contamination under Minn. Stat. ch. 115C (2010) or any other applicable state or federal law. In addition, this letter does not release any party from liability for nonpetroleum contamination, if present, under Minn. Stat. ch. 115B (2010), the Minnesota Superfund Law. Please note that as a result of performing the requested work you may be eligible to apply to the Petroleum Tank Release Compensation Fund (Petrofund) for partial reimbursement of the costs you have incurred in investigating and cleaning up this petroleum tank release. The Petrofund is administered by the Petroleum Tank Release Compensation Board (Petro Board) and the Minnesota Department of Commerce.

The MPCA further understands that you have volunteered to take corrective actions to address this release. The MPCA appreciates your assistance in this matter. The purpose of this letter is to explain your eligibility for Petrofund reimbursement and to outline the actions that the MPCA staff request that you take. Legal Obligations State laws require that persons legally responsible for storage tank releases notify the MPCA of the release and /or discovery of contamination, investigate, and if necessary, clean up the release and /or contamination. A person is considered legally responsible for a petroleum tank release if the person owned or operated the tank either during or after the release, unless specifically exempted under the law. See Minn. Stat. §115C.021 (2010). If development of this property or the surrounding area is planned, State laws require that persons properly manage contaminated soil and /or water uncovered or disturbed even if they are not legally responsible for the storage tank release(s). Developers and other interested parties must also incorporate appropriate response actions to prevent the further spreading of contamination. To receive MPCA review and approval of proposed response actions, please contact the Petroleum Brownfields Program (PBP) at 651- 296 -6300 or at 1- 800 - 657 -3864, or visit their website at http : / /www.pca.state.mn.us /foyp80a. If petroleum contamination is encountered during development work, the Minnesota State Duty Officer should be notified immediately. Request to Take Corrective Action The MPCA staff is requesting you to take the steps necessary to investigate and, if necessary, clean up the release in accordance with MPCA guidance documents. The site investigation must fully define the extent and magnitude of the soil and /or groundwater contamination caused by the releases /contamination. Unless your site is considered "high priority" (see below), you must submit a report to the MPCA which details the results of the investigation or concludes that excavation was sufficient to clean up the release, within 10 months of the date of this letter. The MPCA reserves the right to reject proposed corrective actions if the requirements of the site investigation have not been fulfilled. Guidance documents and related information are located at the following website at http : / /www.pca.state.mn.us /isri80e. The MPCA considers certain site conditions as high priority, including sites with "free product" (free - floating petroleum) that have affected or that threaten to affect drinking water supplies, sites where pollutants are being released to surface waters such as lakes or wetlands, and sites where petroleum or other vapors have been detected within structures or that pose fire or explosion hazards. If one or more of these situations apply to your site, you must submit an Investigation Report Form (refer to guidance documents) to the MPCA within 90 days. The MPCA reserves the right to reject proposed corrective actions if the requirements of the site investigation have not been fulfilled. In addition, if you know or discover that there is free product in a well, excavation, or borehole, you must notify the MPCA immediately of such a release and as rapidly and thoroughly as possible begin interim free product recovery (refer to guidance documents). If you have any question as to whether your site is high priority, please contact the MPCA project manager listed below. Mr. Kevin Pedelty Page 2 May 6, 2011 Reimbursement for Petroleum Site Investigations Although you are not a responsible person for the release pursuant to state law, you hold legal or equitable title to the property where the release occurred, and may therefore volunteer to take corrective action. In 1987, the legislature established the Petroleum Tank Release Compensation Fund (Petrofund) to reimburse some responsible persons and volunteers who take corrective action for a portion of their costs. The Petrofund is administered by the Petroleum Tank Release Compensation Board (Petro Board), which is part of the Minnesota Department of Commerce. To learn more about the Petrofund reimbursement program and to ensure you are eligible for reimbursement, please contact Petrofund staff at 651- 215 -1775 or 1- 800 - 638 -0418 (in greater Minnesota only) prior to incurring costs at the Site. More information is available on the Petrofund's website at http: / /www. state. mn. us /portal/mn/j sp /content.do ?programid = 536884614 &id =- 536881377 &agency = Commerce. The M PCA strongly encourages you to familiarize yourself with the program requirements in order to maximize the available reimbursement. Please be aware that Petrofund reimbursement determinations are made by Petrofund staff at the Department of Commerce. The determinations are based on whether or not the work performed at a leak site was necessary for investigation and corrective action, which is determined by MPCA staff, and whether or not the costs for that work were reasonable, which is determined by Petrofund staff. If you have not already done so, the MPCA recommends that you hire a qualified consulting firm to help you investigate and cleanup the contamination on your site. A qualified consulting firm should have experience in conducting investigations of contaminated sites and in developing and implementing corrective actions for petroleum investigations. The consultant must be registered with the PetroBoard if you wish to have your costs considered for reimbursement. A list of registered contractors and consultants is available from the Petrofund staff. Please note, under the PetroBoard's rules, Minn. R. 2890 (2010), you must solicit a minimum of two written competitive consultant proposals on a form prescribed by the Petro Board to incur costs eligible for reimbursement and a minimum of two written competitive contractor bids must also be obtained for each contractor service. The MPCA encourages you to contact Petrofund staff for answers to all of your questions about bidding and the other Petrofund reimbursement program requirements. Required Response Please provide notification to the MPCA by submitting the enclosed Leaksite Ownership Form to the MPCA project manager listed below. The Leaksite Ownership Form must be completed and submitted within 30 days of your receipt of this letter to indicate whether you intend to proceed with the requested investigation and /or corrective action. MPCA guidance documents will provide you with the information necessary to complete a successful investigation and cleanup.
