attach one additional page, if necessary.)
The proposed site is comprised of approximately 6.1 acres, located at the northeast corner of the
intersection of Route 125 (Osgood Street) and Orchard Hill Road in North Andover, MA. The site is
bound by Route 125 and the former Lucent Technologies' Merrimack Valley Works facility to the
west, Orchard Hill Road to the south, and undeveloped land to the north and east. The site
currently contains two vacant single-family residences. The project consists of razing the existing
structures and constructing a 3,800 square foot convenience store that will include a donut shop
with a drive-through window, and a gasoline station with 10 vehicle fueling positions on the western
portion of the site, as shown on the site plan.
Access to the site will be provided from Route 125 via one full-access/egress driveway, which will
form the fourth leg to the existing signalized intersection of Route 125 and the former Lucent
Technologies' south driveway. The gas station/convenience store project by itself does not trip any
MEPA review thresholds. The eastern portion of the site development has not been determined. A
Notice of Project Change (NPC) will be filed once the development scheme has been finalized for
that portion of the site development.

LAND SECTION —all proponents must fill out this section
I. Thresholds/Permits
A. Does the project meet or exceed any review thresholds related to land (see 301 CMR 11.03(1)
—Yes _X_No; if yes, specify each threshold:
II. Impacts and Permits
A. Describe, in acres,the current and proposed character of the project site, as follows:
Existing Change Total
Footprint of buildings _0.01_ _+0.08_ _0.09_
Roadways, parking, and other paved areas _0.01_ _+0.13_ _0.14_
Other altered areas(describe) _0 —+0.15— _0.15_
Undeveloped areas _0.98_ _-0.28_ _0.70_
B. Has any part of the project site been in active agricultural use in the last three years?
_Yes X_No; if yes, how many acres of land in agricultural use (with agricultural soils)will be
converted to nonagricultural use?
C. Is any part of the project site currently or proposed to be in active forestry use?
_Yes _X_No; if yes, please describe current and proposed forestry activities and indicate
whether any part of the site is the subject of a DEM-approved forest management plan:
D. Does any part of the project involve conversion of land held for natural resources purposes in
accordance with Article 97 of the Amendments to the Constitution of the Commonwealth to any
purpose not in accordance with Article 97?_Yes X_No; if yes, describe:
E. Is any part of the project site currently subject to a conservation restriction, preservation
restriction, agricultural preservation restriction or watershed preservation restriction? Yes
_X_No; if yes, does the project involve the release or modification of such restriction? —Yes
_No; if yes, describe:
F. Does the project require approval of a new urban redevelopment project or a fundamental change
in an existing urban redevelopment project under M.G.L.c.121A? _Yes X_No; if yes,
describe:
G. Does the project require approval of a new urban renewal plan or a major modification of an
existing urban renewal plan under M.G.L.c.121 B?Yes _No —X—; if yes, describe:
H. Describe the project's stormwater impacts and, if applicable, measures that the project will take to
comply with the standards found in DEP's Stormwater Management Policy:
The site stormwater system consists of a series of deep sump, hooded catch basins connecting to
manholes and/or Stormceptor treatment systems, three Stormceptors in all. All stormwater
collected via this closed drainage system discharges into two separate underground detention
systems consisting of 48-inch diameter solid, watertight, HDPE pipes. These systems then
discharge via outlet control structures to grass lined stormwater conveyance channels leading to
level spreaders which work to convert concentrated channel flow into sheet flow leading to the
wetlands design point.
Standard#3 (Groundwater Recharge).All roof runoff from the canopy and convenience store will
discharge into an underground infiltration system consisting of 24-inch diameter perforated
HDPE pipes in a bed of crushed stone, with a 40 percent void ratio. This infiltration system was
sized to store the required volume from the bottom of the stone bed to the invert out. The invert
out of this infiltration system works as an emergency overflow device for large storm events and
discharges into Underground Detention System#2.
-4-
Standard #4 (TSS Removal) is achieved through street sweeping and the best management
practices (bmp) previously discussed, i.e. deep sump, hooded catch basins and the Stormceptor
Treatment systems. If properly installed and maintained, these BMP's, along with the Operation
and Maintenance schedule (Standard #9), ensure compliance with the DEP Stormwater
Management Policy.

Contingency Plan? Yes _No _X_; if yes,what is the Release Tracking Number(RTN)?
J. If the project is site is within the Chicopee or Nashua watershed, is it within the Quabbin,
Ware, or Wachusett subwatershed?_Yes No; if yes, is the project site subject to
regulation under the Watershed Protection Act?—Yes _No
K. Describe the project's other impacts on land:
The proposed project is redevelopment of a site that currently supports land uses consisting of
vacant residential homes. Overall, the project will be an improvement by providing a cohesive,
well-maintained development with modern Best Management Practices for storm water runoff.

have no impact on the open space plan as the site is currently developed and not
planned for use as open space. The Master Plan identified the former Lucent building
across the street as a major redevelopment project, and the proposed project will not
preclude any redevelopment of the former,Lucent site.
