To the County Engineer:
Murias Laboratories, LLC is a start-up reagent and technology development company. The focus is the
bulk production of high quality proteins and specialty reagents for use by the research community.
Murias has one employee.
I have addressed the performance standards of Zoning Ordinance Section 18 -4.14:
Noise: The operation will not create sound or impact noise levels in excess of the values specified in
Section 4.14.1. The parcel is zoned Industrial (L -1) and is surrounded on 2 sides by parking lots, on 1
side by another business and on the remaining side by Reas Ford Rd. The major source of noise is a
backup diesel generator (uses off -road diesel) at the rear of the building. The generator runs a twice -
daily self -test and will only run continuously in the event of a power failure. The equipment inside the
laboratory includes centrifuges, incubators, spectrophotometer, Class II Biosafety cabinet, water baths,
refrigerators and freezers, electrophoresis equipment and power supplies, balance, stir plates and
autoclave, all of which do not have an unacceptable noise level.
Vibration: Equipment operated by the laboratory does not produce any detectable earthborn vibration.
Glare: The operation of Murias Laboratory is completely contained within the building. The interior
lighting associated with this operation does not produce glare that is visible beyond the lot line.
Air Pollution: There will be no emission of smoke, odor or gaseous pollutants with the exception of
those emitted by the diesel generator. The emissions will not exceed those levels acceptable for diesel
vehicles.
Water Pollution: Our operation does not represent a hazard to water quality. No industrial liquid
wastes will be generated by Murias Laboratories. All regulated medical waste (RMW) will be
transported off -site for disposal by an approved transporter in accordance with DEQ regulations.
According to the DEQ regional office, a permit for RMW is not required to be in compliance with state
regulations as long as all waste is transported and treated elsewhere. I am in the process of contracting
with Sci -Med Waste Systems, Inc. (1906 Progress Drive Roanoke, VA 24013) for disposal of RMW. A
small amount of hazardous chemicals (methanol) will be used at Murias Laboratories, but the amount
falls well below that which would require a DEQ permit. The hazardous waste will be transported off -
site for disposal by an approved transporter. I have contacted the following transporters:
i
o Environmental Options, Inc., PO Box 879 Rocky Mount, VA 24151 (540) 483 -3920
Y AEG Environmental Products and Services Baltimore, MD 21075 (443) 650 -0913
• Safety -Kleen Chester, VA (Richmond) 1200 W. Hundred Road Chester, VA 23831
(804) 748 -3767
Radioactivity: Murias Laboratories does not require handling of radioactive materials. Therefore, there
-- - - - - -- will -be no- radioactive emissions oY- danger-to health- and- safefy- of- anyperson- on -or- beyond -th -e - -- - '- - - - - -- - --
premises.
Electrical Interference: Murias Laboratories does not require any equipment that would generate
electrical disturbances that would adversely affect the operation of equipment on any other lot or
premises.
Please feel free to call me with any further questions you may have.
Sincerely, d
Celeste E. Smith
