Conduct a public hearing to allow the public the opportunity to give testimony regarding Industrial Power, LLC's application for approval of a Municipal Setting Designation for the property located at 600 North Beach Street, a 5.653 acre site more fully described in the metes and bounds description included with the attached resolution; 2. Adopt the attached resolution supporting the applicant's application to the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality for a Municipal Setting Designation for the site; and 3. Adopt the attached ordinance prohibiting the potable use of designated groundwater from beneath the site. DISCUSSION: On January 21, 2016, Industrial Power, LLC, d/b/a Industrial Power Trucking, filed an application with the City seeking support of a Municipal Setting Designation (MSD) for property located at 600 North Beach Street. The site includes 5.653 acres. Industrial Power, LLC, will use the location for overflow parking on a gravel base for truck sales. The site is zoned K-Industrial and the planned use is appropriate. Staff from the Planning and Development, Transportation and Public Works and Water departments reviewed the application for potential impacts to City interests. Staff identified no significant concerns. Notice was issued, as required by ordinance and a public meeting was held at the Riverside Community Center on March 31, 2016. The groundwater that is sought to be restricted is shallow, perched groundwater that is underlain by a confining layer of approximately 500 feet in thickness. The affected shallow groundwater is not a designated, recognized major or minor aquifer. The chemicals of concern detected in the designated groundwater include arsenic, lead, cis-1,2-dichloroethene, tetrachloroethene, trichloroethene and pentachlorophenol in the shallow groundwater at levels exceeding the applicable Tier 1 Texas Risk Reduction Program (TRRP) Residential Protective Concentration Levels. The Fort Worth Water Department provides water service to all existing residential and commercial/ Logname: 23MSD for Industrial Power, LLC for Use as Parking for Trucks Page I of 2 industrial properties within the city limits of the City of Fort Worth, within half a mile of the MSD boundary. All undeveloped properties (within the city limits of the City of Fort Worth) within half a mile of the site are eligible to receive water service from the Fort Worth Water Department, in accordance with the Texas Water Service Certificate of Convenience and Necessity (CCN) No. 12311 and the City of Fort Worth Policy for the Installation of Community Services. The City of Haltom City has a border within one- half of a mile of the MSD boundary. In 2003, a state law became effective creating the concept of a MSD. The purpose of a MSD is to certify properties in order to limit the scope of or eliminate the need for investigation of or response actions addressing contaminant impacts to groundwater that has been restricted from use as potable water by municipal ordinance. A person, typically a developer, must apply to the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) for certification of their property as a MSD. If granted, they will not be required to clean up designated groundwater on their site to drinking water standards, although other cleanup standards such as inhalation and contact must still be met. The application will not be approved by TCEQ if the municipality where the site is located does not give formal approval. That approval must be by means of a City Council resolution supporting the application and an ordinance prohibiting potable use of groundwater in the MSD (potable water is water used for irrigating crops intended for human consumption, drinking, showering, bathing or cooking purposes). In January 2005, the City Council adopted an ordinance creating a procedure for persons applying to TCEQ for a MSD to get support of that application from the City Council. The procedure includes filing an application with the City, Staff review of the application for potential impacts to City interests, a public meeting held for the purpose of providing information on the application to the affected community and a public hearing. The site is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 4, Mapsco 64N and 64P. This M&C does not request approval of a contract with a business entity.
