Intent, dated 8/12/04.
30. The following wetland resource areas are affected by the proposed work: Buffer
Zone to Bordering Vegetated Wetland (BVW). These resource areas are significant
to the interests of the Act and Town ByLaw as noted above and therein. The
applicant has not attempted to overcome the presumption of significance of these
resource areas to the identified interests.
31. The NACC agrees with the applicant's delineation of the wetland resource areas on
the site as shown on the plans dated referenced herein.
32. The NACC finds that the intensive use of the upland areas and buffer zone
proposed on this site will cause further alteration of the wetland resource areas. In
order to prevent any alteration of wetland resource areas a twenty five foot (25')
No-Disturbance Zone and a fifty foot (50') No-Construction Zone shall be
established from the edge of the adjacent wetland resource area except in those
previously disturbed locations as depicted on the approved plan. The
Conservation Administrator and/or other agents of the NACC do not have the
authority to waive these setbacks as established under the local bylaw. No
disturbance of existing grade, soils or vegetation is permitted in the No-Disturbance
zone. (See Section 3.4 &Appendix F of the local Regulations).
33. There shall be no increase in the post development discharges from the storm
drainage system or any other changes in post development conditions that alter the
post development watershed boundaries as currently depicted in the Notice of
Intent and approved by this Order of Conditions, unless specifically approved in
writing by the Commission.
34. This document shall be included in all construction contracts, subcontracts, and
specifications dealing with the work proposed and shall supersede any conflicting
contract requirements. The applicant shall assure that all contractors,
subcontractors, and other personnel performing the permitting work are fully aware
of the permits terms and conditions. Thereafter, the contractor will be held jointly
liable for any violation of this Order resulting from failure to comply with its
conditions.
35. The owners of the project and their successors in title, in the event they proceed to
alter areas subject to the Commission's jurisdiction under the order, agree that the
Order does not in itself impose upon the Town any responsibility to maintain the
proposed drainage system and that said Town shall not be liable for any damage in
the event of failure. By acceptance of this Order, the owners agree to indemnify and
hold harmless to the Town and its residents for any damage attributable to
CAWinword\1135GreatPondRd.doc 3 NACC 9/22/04
t ` r
DEP FILE #242 - 1268
alterations undertaken on this property pursuant to the Order. Issuance of these
Conditions does not in any way imply or certify that the site or downstream areas
will not be subject to flooding, storm damage or any other form of water damage.
Maintenance of the drainage system, if accepted by the Town as part of a public
way,becomes the responsibility of the Town.
36. Issuance of these Conditions does not in any way imply or certify that the site or
downstream areas will not be subject to flooding, storm damage or any other form
of water damage.
PRIOR TO CONSTRUCTION
37. No work shall be undertaken until all administrative appeal periods from this Order
have elapsed or, if such an appeal,has been filed, until all proceedings before the
Department or Court have been completed.
38. This Order shall be recorded by the applicant at the Registry of Deeds immediately
after.the expiration of all appeal periods. No work shall be undertaken until the
Final Order has been recorded in the Registry of Deeds or the Land Court for the
district in which the land is located, within the chain of title of the affected property.
In the case of recorded land, the Final Order shall also be noted in the Registry's
Grantor Index under the name of the owner of the land upon which the proposed
work is.to be done. In the case of registered land, the Final Order shall also be noted
on the Land Court Certificate of Title of the owner of the land upon which the
proposed work is to be done. The recording information shall be submitted to the
North Andover Conservation Commission on the form at the end of this Order
prior to commencement of the work. Any Order not recorded by the applicant
before work commences may be recorded by the NACC at the applicant's expense.
39. A sign shall be displayed at the site not less than two square feet or more than three
square feet in size bearing the words "Massachusetts DEP, File Number 242-1268."
40. Any changes in the submitted plans caused by the applicant, another Board's
decision or resulting from this Order of Conditions must be submitted to the NACC
for approval prior to implementation. If the NACC finds said changes to be
significant, the NACC will call for another public hearing (at the expense of the
applicant). Within 21 days of the close of said public hearing the NACC will issue an
amended or new Order of Conditions. Any errors found in the plans or information
submitted by the applicant shall be considered as changes. The proposed project

in changes to the project plans or wetland impacts. If any such changes occur a
revised plan and an explanation of the revisions shall be submitted to the NACC for

42. Prior to any work commencing on-site, the applicant shall submit to the NACC for
approval, a detailed sequence of construction, including the construction of
compensation and retention areas, installation of sedimentation/erosion control
devices and re-vegetation to be completed before other work begins on-site.
43. Wetland flagging shall be checked prior to start of construction and shall be re-
established where missing. All wetland flagging shall remain visible and

Such markers shall be checked and replaced as necessary and shall be maintained
until all construction is complete. Workers should be informed that no use of
machinery, storage of machinery or materials, stockpiling of soil, or construction
activity is to occur beyond this line at any time. All flags used for the above
purposes shall be of a color different from other flagging used on the site.

44: A row of staked hay bales backed by trenched siltation fence shall be placed
between all construction areas and wetlands. The erosion control barrier will be
properly installed and placed as shown on the plans approved and referenced
herein and shall be inspected and approved by the NACC prior to the start of
construction and shall remain intact until all disturbed areas have been permanently
stabilized to prevent erosion. All erosion prevention and sedimentation protection
measures found necessary during construction shall be implemented at the direction
of the NACC. The NACC reserves the right to impose additional conditions on
portions of this project to mitigate any impacts which could result from site erosion,
or any noticeable degradation of surface water quality discharging from the site.
For example, installation of erosion control measures may be required in areas not
shown on the plan(s) referenced in this Order of Conditions. Should such
installation be required by the NACC, they shall be installed within 48 hours of the
Commission's request.

altered wetland resource areas including the encompassing buffer
zone, which is regulated as a resource area under the local Wetland
Protection Bylaw.
