Suggested Industry Profiles for Site Certification

APPENDIX II

A. Heavy Industrial/Manufacturing includes plants, factories or mills; usually very energy- and capital-intensive; due to impacts or appearance may be unsuitable near other uses; generally require rail service. Examples include: steel manufacturing and processing, fiberglass manufacturing and processing and automotive assembly. B. General / Light Manufacturing includes assembly and light manufacturing; generally do not require major on-site utility services or utilize large quantities of hazardous chemicals; can be located in most campus-like industrial parks or individual sites. Examples include: automotive parts suppliers, life sciences and motor sports. C. Food Processing/ Value Added Agriculture includes industries that manufacture or process foods and beverages; may require high-volume water demand. Examples include: animal feed producers, meat and poultry processing, wet corn milling and commercial bakery products. D. Transportation, Distribution, Logistics (TDL) includes industries that furnish local or long-distance trucking or transfer services or are primarily engaged in the warehousing, storage, wholesale and distribution of goods. Examples include: large retailer distribution facilities and commercial trucking facilities.

E. Business & Financial Services / Insurance includes backoffice bulk processing, electronic commerce or service centers; requires space for employee parking. Examples include: customer service call centers and insurance claims processing. F. Biofuels includes operations that manufacturer fuels from grain and oilseed; typically require the manufacturer to locate adjacent to a mill that provides the raw material, such as corn or soybeans; may require high-volume water demand; requires rail service and infrastructure designed to handle heavy truck traffic. Examples include: biodiesel and ethanol production.

G. Agricultural Livestock Production includes breeding and raising of livestock; would be unsuitable in close proximity to populated residential areas. Examples include: hog and pig farming, dairy farming and poultry and egg production. H. Other includes uses not described in other industry profiles. Permit and utility requirements would be dependent on the end user.

Indiana Department of Environmental Management Wetlands Fact Sheet
http://www.in.gov/idem/programs/water/401/index.html
· · · The state and federal agencies share the goal of no net loss of wetland area or function. Identifying wetlands and other waters of the state on a piece of property begins with a delineation conducted by a trained professional who follows the procedures detailed in the 1987 Army Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual. The USACE Louisville District has posted a list of wetland consultants at: http://www.lrl.usace.army.mil/orf/ (Click on Information on the right hand side of the page and then select Consultant List). Please use caution when selecting a consultant as there is no licensure or certification process to guarantee that providers of these services are qualified. IDEM does not endorse the accuracy or quality of the USACE list or the qualifications of the firms and individuals on the list. This may not be a comprehensive list. The National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) maps are a useful resource for preliminary planning purposes. If the NWI depicts a wetland on or near the site, then it is highly likely that a wetland is present on the site. However, the NWI is not intended to depict jurisdiction for regulatory purposes, since the NWI wetland definition differs from the regulatory definition and some wetlands were not mapped because of both political and technological considerations/limitations. The NWI maps are approximately 30 years old and the absence of wetlands on the NWI maps should NOT be interpreted to mean that wetlands are not present on the property. For a wetland delineation to be valid, the appropriate district of the USACE must verify the delineation. Wetland delineations verified by the USACE are valid for five years. The USACE will need 30-60 days to review the wetlands delineation to determine: a) if the area(s) are regulated under the Federal Clean Water Act, and b) if the area(s) are regulated under the Federal Clean Water Act, then verify the extent and location of these areas. If the USACE determines that a wetland is not regulated under the Federal Clean Water Act, then it is, by definition, isolated. The USACE may decline to verify the delineation of isolated wetlands. In these cases, IDEM will review the delineation. Isolated wetlands are subject to regulation under the State Regulated Wetland Program, a similar permitting program administered by IDEM separate from the USACE. No permit is required if a project can be designed and sited in such a way as to avoid wetlands, streams, and lakes. If a project needs an Individual Section 404 Permit from the USACE, then plan on a minimum of six months from the submittal of a complete application for permit processing, review, and final agency decision. If the project needs an Individual Section 401 Water Quality Certification or an Individual Isolated Wetland Permit from IDEM, then plan on 120 days from the receipt of a complete application for processing, review, and a final agency decision. If you believe the project qualifies for the Regional General Permit or for an Isolated General Permit from IDEM, then allow thirty (30) days from the receipt of a complete notification form for IDEM to determine if the project falls within the scope of these general permits.

IDEM and the USACE conduct their reviews concurrently; however, IDEM cannot begin their review until the USACE determines the extent of federal jurisdiction and the type of permit and the USACE cannot issue their federal permit until IDEM has issued the State Water Quality Certification. Changes in the proposed project often require additional time for review. Mitigation is required for impacts to wetlands and streams. Mitigation includes avoidance, minimization and replacement (in that order). Be prepared to: 1) describe why these proposed impacts are necessary, 2) evaluate other alternatives, 3) demonstrate how you have minimized the proposed impacts and 4) replace the lost resource through the creation or restoration of wetland or stream. Refer to IC 13-18-22 State Regulated Wetlands for additional information.

Shovel Ready certification is subject to an applicant receiving a site review letter from the appropriate INDOT District office summarizing the condition of the site and the need for a subsequent traffic study (if applicable). INDOT district personnel and a FASTeam member will visit sites that pass the preliminary application review.

The Indiana Brownfields Program provides technical, legal, financial, and educational assistance to stakeholders involved with brownfields redevelopment. Indiana defines a brownfield as a parcel of real estate that is abandoned, inactive, or underutilized on which redevelopment is complicated by the presence or potential presence of a hazardous substance, pollutant, or contaminant. Examples of brownfields include gas stations, manufacturing facilities, dry cleaners, landfills, schools and rail yards. The three stages of brownfields redevelopment are: 1. Planning/Investigation: create redevelopment/end use plan, identify available resources, conduct appropriate site assessments (Phase I and Phase II Environmental Site Assessments) 2. Remediation (when appropriate): consider cleanup criteria for planned end use and develop a corrective action plan, consider use of institutional controls 3. Redevelopment
