These dates are tentative and subject to change depending on weather conditions, unforeseen circumstances, or other construction delays. Hours and Days of Operation Construction activities will take place Monday through Friday, from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM. Work outside of these hours will be avoided unless specified by the local authorities or under special circumstances that require after-hours work. No construction work will occur on weekends or public holidays, unless otherwise approved. Proposed Hauling/Transportation Routes Hauling and transportation of materials and equipment will primarily occur via S 4th Street and Morris Avenue S. The designated routes will be mapped out in advance to avoid congested areas and residential zones. Special attention will be given to the accessibility of the routes to prevent damage to existing infrastructure and minimize disruption to local traffic. Measures to Minimize Environmental and Community Impacts To mitigate environmental and community impacts, the following measures will be implemented: • Dust Control: Water trucks will be utilized on-site to suppress dust during excavation, grading, and other earth-moving activities. Dust control efforts will be increased during dry conditions. • Traffic and Transportation Impacts: Construction-related traffic will be restricted to designated routes to avoid congesting residential and high-traffic areas. Traffic management measures, including the placement of signs and traffic personnel will be implemented to direct traffic flow and prevent congestion, if needed. • Erosion and Mud Control: Silt fences, hay bales, and other erosion control measures will be installed around disturbed areas to prevent soil erosion and runoff. Regular inspections will be conducted to ensure the integrity of these measures. • Noise Mitigation: To minimize noise disruptions, all equipment will be maintained in good working condition, and mufflers or sound barriers will be used on machinery as necessary. Noise-generating activities will be limited to normal working hours (7:00 AM to 6:00 PM). • Other Noxious Characteristics: The use of hazardous chemicals will be minimized on-site, and any necessary chemicals will be stored in secure, sealed St. Anthony – Parking Lot Expansion 4/27/2026 Page 2 of 2 containers to avoid spills or fumes. Waste materials will be properly contained and disposed of in accordance with local regulations. Special Hours for Construction or Hauling There are no proposed weekend or late-night construction activities. However, in the event of a construction delay or unforeseen circumstances, special working hours, including extended hours on weekdays or limited work on weekends, may be required with prior approval from the local authorities. Any such adjustments will be communicated to the community in advance. Preliminary Traffic Control Plan A detailed traffic control plan will be developed in coordination with local traffic management authorities to ensure safe and smooth traffic flow during construction, as needed. All mitigation measures outlined will be reviewed periodically to ensure compliance with project goals and to address any emerging concerns. Regular communication with local stakeholders will be maintained throughout the duration of the project.
