Abstract |
This is the final environmental impact statement (EIS) prepared by EPA for the Metro Denver Sludge Management Plan. The Metropolitan Denver Sewage Disposal District No. 1 plan calls for development of a pipeline and drying/storage complex some 27 miles to the east of the Commerce City plant. Up to 107 dry tons per day of anaerobically digested sludge would be pumped to the drying basins. After drying and storage of approximately a year, the dried sludge product would be sold or distributed for a variety of uses. It is contemplated that municipal parks, irrigated farms, sod farms and home gardens would constitute the principal use areas. The report describes the project, alternatives, environmental impacts, and mitigating measures. The most severe potential impact is expected to be on the groundwater in the vicinity of the site. Other impacts include added water consumption, odor problems, effects in the site area, effects in areas of use. Recommendations are made for basin lining, control of uses, heavy metals limits, etc. |
