M -1979 -221 <br />Class: Report <br />Doc Type: Sedalia Recycling center a <br />Transportation Depository <br />Highway 85, fronting the proposed facility, is a major two lane artery between Denver and Colorado <br />Springs. Traffic is very heavy during rush hour periods and moderate during the day. Access to the <br />highway is on an improved road with high visibility. During heavy traffic volumes ingress and egress <br />would be difficult due to the large numbers of vehicles using the highway. Lighter traffic would make <br />access to and from the highway more manageable. <br />The access road to the proposed site as well as Highway 85 are all rated to handle truck traffic associ- <br />ated with the proposed operation. Both roads currently handle heavy trucks and loads and will accom- <br />modate the project zone sufficiently. <br />The proposed facility will cause only minimal increases in traffic which are related to day -to -day <br />operations and periodic deliveries. The road will be improved by blading and gravel. These measures <br />will safely accommodate additional traffic and emergency vehicles. <br />Photograph of aca cN, total to facility. <br />Human population <br />No people will be displaced or relocated because of the proposed facility. Current land use of the <br />proposed location does not include any residences. Day to day operations of a recycling and deposi- <br />tory center will likely cause some negative responses from neighboring residential and ranching facili- <br />ties. <br />A 30 day public comment period and a legal notice of a public hearing required by the State of Colo- <br />rado Public Health and Environment Department will be followed in order to address public questions, <br />comments or concerns. <br />Construction <br />Construction information pertaining to the day to day operation and engineering of the Sedalia Project <br />is available from the design consultant, Petotec International Corporation. <br />1 111111 11111 11111 11111 IIIII IIII IIII <br />22385 <br />
