July 17, 1980 Mr. Edward Scanlon Chairman North Andover Board of Health Town Hall Main Street North Andover, MA 01845 Re: Variance From North Andover Board of Health Requirement 3.1. 3 100 Foot Minimum Distance to Wetland, Lot 9, Winter Street Dear Mr. Scanlon; on behalf of my client, North Andover Associates, I am requesting the North Andover Board of Health grant a waiver from paragraph 3®1 . 3 of their Rules and Regulations requiring a 100 foot minimum setback of the septic system from wetlands. As can be seen from the enclosed plan, it has not been possible to place the leaching area the minimum 100 feet from the edge of existing wetland because of the requirements of both the North Andover Conservation Commission and the Department of Environmental Quality Engineering prohibiting my client to fill in any of the wetlands. The setback distance, or course, conforms to Regulation 3 ® 7 of Title V which requires a minimum setback of 50 feet* If I can be of further service to you in this matter, please do not hesitate to contact this office.

The Order requires that compensatory storage volume be provided for any fill placed below El. 135. It is recognized that compensation for the fill, volume initially prok. , ed may be difficult to accomplish within the confines of the lot; however, a less extensive intrusion into the wetland may be possible if the sewage disposal expansion area can be moved uphill or realigned to require less fill. Further, you should note that Title 5 of the State Environmental. Code requires a minimum distance of 50 feet from leaching works to surface waters, and that a variance from the local. 100 foot requirement would obviate the need for significant filling in the wetland area. Such a variance should pose no untoward threat to the wetland, provided that other requirements of Title 5 can be satisfied. Very truly yours, For the Commissioner, Gerald W. McCall.

Dear Tom: Enclosed you will find the material which you requested of me during the Board of Health meeting of August 11, 1980® It includes: 1. The original Order of Conditions issued by the North Andover Conservation Commission June 29, 1978. 2. The Superceding Order of Conditions issued by the Depart- ment of Environmental Quality Engineering March 2, 1979. 3. The covering letter to the Superceding Order of Conditions issued by the Department of Environmental Quality Engineering. In designing this system, we have taken our lead from the covering letter in that we have moved the disposal system uphill and realigned it in order to encroach less into the wetland area. Now we are asking the Board of Health for a variance to the 100 foot wetland setback believing that there will be no threat to the wetlands provided that the other requirements of Title V are satisfied. If I can be of further service to you in this matter, please do not hesitate to get in contact with me. Yours truly, r osepl B. Cushing � r ,� wr cc: Richard D.
