Ij �zt 'CIO Page 1 of 2 DelleChiaie, Pamela `.J From: Sawyer, Susan Sent: Tuesday, March 09, 2004 12:02 PM To: DelleChiaie, Pamela Subject: RE: Phone Call: Lee Knowles re: 151 Salem Street �• I told her the best way to determine if there is a wetland concern is to request that a sewer entrance P permit be applied for,The form can be picked up at DPW. It has a line on it that requires, "Conservation to sign off before issuance. Upon receiving this form Allison would go to the property to, see if there are any problems that might require filing with ConCom. She will sign the permit application if there are no problems. I suggested she require the owner to show proof of this signed form. Unfortunately, she as the buyer cannot give Allison permission to enter the property it must be the owner. Whether or not DPW requires her to pay the fee to get the form, I doubt it, but I don't know. I also do not know what the current tie in fees are with DPW. She was also concerned about the additional costs because the old system is in the rear and far from the street. I recommended that she request that an estimate be done by a local contractor so they could get an idea of the unknown costs. v The main problem is that sewer:is not there yet. What if it is delayed for years or health and Conservation agents change over and the policy changes?Those unknowns are just a risk they would have to take. Finally, the,BOH,is supposed to witness it. This is one item that has slipped. Iused to view dozens of ,these. If we don't see it, it just means that we cannot verify that it happened', there have been no penalties for this to date. Of course it would be helpful to us so that we could change the files to"on sewer"and clean out some of the old septic stuff, but we'll deal with that.

This is the property that Ben from NEES presented a form "Certificate of Approval for Continued Use of a Title V Failed Inspection System" to be signed by you, which was signed as of Feb. 9, 2004. He came before the BOH at the January meeting I believe. I was able to answer most of Ms. Knowles questions. However, once the property is connected to sewer, I told her that the tank must be filled and crushed. She is concerned about: 1. Wetlands are on the property--would there any repercussion or problems with wetlands to crush/fill tank? 2. What is an average cost to fill/crush tank, and does the BOH need to witness it, or can a form just be sent in certifying that it is complete? This potential Buyer is just trying to see what the additional costs would be before she makes an offer. Ms. Knowles number at work is: 781.442.6321. Thank you for your assistance.

This document needs to be signed by the buyer of the home and essentially puts them on notice that the property has a failed septic system and will have to be tied in to the sewer system within 60 days of it becoming available. Their signing the document relieves you from having to replace the system before you sell the house. I have also enclosed an invoice for my services in drafting this document and working with the Board of Health and Public Works Department to gain its approvaL If you have any questions regarding the document, who to take it to at the town,or about any other issue that may arise during the sale of your home as it relates to the Title 5 process, do not hesitate to give me a call.

The purpose of being on the agenda is to request that the Board of Health consider allowing the owner of the above referenced property to be given a waiver of the requirement to repair a failing septic system as allowed under Title 5 section 15.305(1)(b). The owner of the property plans to sell his property in the spring and move to a retirement home. Although the current system still works it is 40 years old. As currently constructed the system is most likely to close to the wetlands at the rear of the home and is to deep in the ground to be certified as being above the estimated seasonal high ground water. This office has investigated the possibility of tying the home in to the municipal sewer system and has discovered that a new gravity sewer line is to be installed within the street in front of the home and is in the final stages of design and permitting. The North Andover Public Works Department is planning to solicit bids for construction of the line in the near future and the money to pay for the construction was appropriated at Town Meeting last spring. A letter from the Public Works Department explaining the status of the project has been requested and will be supplied to the Board of Health at its meeting. The owner of the property is willing to enter in to whatever enforceable agreement the Board of Health would require. The owner of the property is Edward Bjornson. 60 BEECHWOOD DRIVE-NORTH ANDOVER,MA 01845-(978)686-1768-(888)359-7645-FAX(978)685-1099 I would like to be heard at the November 20, 2003 Board of Health meeting. I understand that this is short notice for inclusion on to the agenda, but I would be appreciative of any forgiveness the Board would allow. Mr Bjornson would like to resolve this matter before it becomes to late in the season to pursue other avenues of dealing with the Title 5 problem. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact this office. Sincerely, Benjamin C.
