THE PERMIT EXTENSION ACT
UPDATED SEPTEMBER 18, 2012
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
This document provides answers to frequently asked questions about the permit extension act as
it affects permits issued by state agencies. It is not intended to provide guidance with respect to
permits issued by a municipality.
WHAT IS THE PERMIT EXTENSION ACT?
The Permit Extension Act was created by Section 173 of Chapter 240 of the Acts of 2010 and
extended by Sections 74 and 75 of Chapter 238 of the Acts of 2012. The purpose of this act is to
promote job growth and long-term economic recovery and the Permit Extension Act furthers this
purpose by establishing an automatic four-year extension to certain permits and licenses
concerning the use or development of real property. With limited exceptions, the Act
automatically extends, for four years beyond its otherwise applicable expiration date, any permit
or approval that was "in effect or existence" during the qualifying period beginning on August
15, 2008 and extending through August 15, 2012.
WHAT TYPES OF APPROVALS ARE INCLUDED IN THIS ACT?
The Act applies to regulatory approvals issued by local, regional or state entities that concern the
use or development of real property. "Approval" isAdefined broadly to include any permit,
certificate, license, certification, determination, exemption, variance, waiver, building permit, or
other approval or determination of rights, and any order, except for enforcement orders.
I
DOES THIS EXTENSION APPLY ONLY TO STATE -ISSUED PERMITS?
No, this extension applies to all qualifying permits issued by any municipal, regional, or state
entity.
THE ACT REFERS TO A LIST OF STATUTES. DOES THE ACT COVER APPROVALS UNDER OTHER
STATUTES?
Yes. While the definition of "Approval" includes a particular list of statutes, it is not an exclusive
list of all statutes affected by this Act. As such, the Act applies to all regulatory approvals
concerning the use or development of real property, except those expressly exempted.
ARE ANY TYPES OF APPROVALS EXEMPTED FROM THIS STATUTE?
Yes. The following approvals are expressly exempted and therefore are NOT covered by the Act:
■ Permits or approvals issued by the Federal government, or by a state agency issued pursuant
to federal law
■ Permits issued under sections 20 to 23 of Chapter 40B
Hunting, fishing and aquaculture approvals issued by the Division of Fisheries and Wildlife
under Chapter 131.
Enforcement orders.
ARE PRE -DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES CONSIDERED APPROVALS?
No. Use or development of real property concerns buildings or structures, or site work
specifically associated with the development of buildings or structures, rather than pre -
development activities such as oil or hazardous material cleanup. Even though such actions may
THE PERMIT EXTENSION ACT
UPDATED SEPTEMBER 18, 2012
be deemed a precondition to making real property suitable for use or development, pre -
development activities that are independently undertaken outside of the context of a larger
development project are not covered by the Act.
DOES THIS STATUTE APPLY TO PROPERTY RIGHTS GRANTED TO THIRD PARTIES TO USE STATE
OWNED PROPERTIES?
No. The Act does not apply to the property rights issued by the Commonwealth in its role as a
landowner and as such does not apply to easements, leases, licenses for the use of property
(except to the extent that a license may authorize the use or development of property, such as in
the case of a license issued under Chapter 91 or a curb cut permit), and/or conservation or
agricultural restrictions.
IS THE 4 YEAR EXTENSION AUTOMATIC?
Yes. The four year extension authorized by the Act is automatic, meaning it occurred by
operation of law. Neither the permit holder nor the issuing agency needs to take action to
implement the extension.
DOES A PERMIT OR APPROVAL EXTENDED BY THE ACT REQUIRE ANY FURTHER REVIEW?
No, unless the permit or approval by its terms called for such further review when in effect
during the qualifying period. Permits or approvals issued prior to the qualifying period and in
effect at any time during the qualifying period, and permits or approvals issued during the
qualifying period have completed review and are valid for four additional years from the original
date of expiration.
WHAT IS THE NEW EXPIRATION DATE?
The new expiration date is four years from the date that otherwise marked the end of the lawful
term of the permit or approval. For example, a permit that expired on September 1, 2009 is now
revived and will expire on September 1, 2013.
ARE ISSUING AGENCIES REQUIRED TO ISSUE WRITTEN NOTICES OF EXTENSION TO APPROVAL
HOLDERS?
No. The Act does not require issuing agencies to provide written notice of extension and an
approval holder does not need written notice of extension of its permit or approval. However, an
issuing agency may post a general notice of the Act on its website and may issue a standard
notice of extension eligibility to approval holders who request a document for financing or other
purposes.
DOES THE ACT APPLY TO BUILDING PERMITS?
Yes. Any building permit issued or in effect between August 15, 2008 and August 15, 2012 has
been extended by four years from the date on which the permit was otherwise set to expire.
DOES THE ACT APPLY TO MASSACHUSETTS ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY ACT (MEPA)
DECISIONS, CERTIFICATES OR WAIVERS?
Yes. Certificates issued pursuant to MEPA are specifically listed in the definition of "Approval"
included in the Act. Therefore, Certificates that were issued or were in effect between August
15, 2008 and August 15, 2012 will have four additional years before a "Lapse of Time" will have
2
THE PERMIT EXTENSION ACT
UPDATED SEPTEMBER 18, 2012
occurred triggering either a Notice of Project Change or a new Environmental Notification Form
(See 301 CMR 11.10).
ASIDE FROM THE 4 YEAR EXTENSION, HAS THE PERMITTING OR CONSTRUCTION PROCESS
OTHERWISE BEEN CHANGED BY THE ACT?
No.
WHAT IF I SUBMITTED AN APPLICATION FOR A PERMIT DURING THE QUALIFYING PERIOD, BUT
IT WAS NOT ISSUED UNTIL AFTER THE PERIOD HAD PASSED?
The permit does not qualify for extension. The Act only extends permits that were issued or
already in effect at any point (e.g., even for one day) during the qualifying period.
WHAT IF A PERMIT WAS ISSUED BY A BUILDING OFFICIAL DURING THE QUALIFYING PERIOD,
BUT NEVER PICKED UP BY THE APPLICANT?
If the permit was issued and never revoked, it qualifies for the extension regardless of whether it
was ever picked up.
WHAT IF I RECEIVED A PARTIAL BUILDING PERMIT DURING THE QUALIFYING PERIOD, BUT NOT
A PERMIT FOR THE REST OF THE PROJECT?
Only the permit that was issued or was already in effect is eligible for the four year extension.
For instance, if a foundation permit was issued during the qualifying period, but other permits for
the remainder of the project were issued outside of the qualifying period, only the foundation
permit is extended. No approvals or permits that were not either issued or already in effect
during the qualifying period are eligible for automatic extension.
DOES THE ACT APPLY TO A PERMIT THAT EXPIRED DURING THE QUALIFYING PERIOD?
Yes, the Act revives and extends any permit or approval that was valid during the qualifying
period of August 15, 2008 through August 15, 2012. For instance, a permit that expired on July
1, 2009 is now revived and set to expire on July 1, 2013.
DOES THE ACT APPLY TO A PERMIT OR APPROVAL THAT WAS NOT DUE TO EXPIRE UNTIL AFTER
THE QUALIFYING PERIOD?
Yes. The Act provides an additional four years to the original "lawful term of the permit" or
approval. If a permit or approval was due to expire on September 1, 2011, it will now
automatically expire on September 1, 2015.
DOES THE ACT APPLY TO A PERMIT THAT HAD AN EXPIRATION DATE THAT FELL WITHIN THE
QUALIFYING PERIOD BUT HAS BEEN ADMINISTRATIVELY CONTINUED PAST AUGUST 15, 2012,
PURSUANT TO A TIMELY APPLICATION FOR RENEWAL?
Yes. The Act applies to any permit or approval valid during the qualifying period and extends
the permit or approval four years in addition to the "lawful term of the approval."
DOES THE ACT EXTEND THE TERM OF A PERMIT THAT WAS REVOKED DURING THE QUALIFYING
PERIOD?
No. The Act applies to permits or approvals that were "in effect or existence" during the
qualifying period. Any permits or approvals that were revoked during the qualifying period were
THE PERMIT EXTENSION ACT
UPDATED SEPTEMBER 18, 2012
not in effect or existence for the purposes of this Act. The Act expressly preserves an issuing
agency's authority to suspend or revoke an approval in accordance with the terms of approval
itself, or the authorizing statute or regulations.
DOES THE ACT APPLY TO A PERMIT THAT EXPIRED PRIOR TO THE QUALIFYING PERIOD, BUT
WHICH HAD BEEN EXTENDED BY THE ISSUING AGENCY?
Yes, provided the extension resulted in the permit being "in effect" during the qualifying period;
if the permit application was pending but not granted during the qualifying period it was not "in
effect or existence" for purposes of the Act. For example, a permit that was set to expire on
January 31, 2007, but which was lawfully extended for three years by the issuing authority (until
January 31, 2010), would now be set to expire on January 31, 2014.
IF MY PERMIT WAS EXTENDED BY THE AGENCY DURING THE QUALIFYING PERIOD, SUCH THAT I
HAD TWO VALID PERMITS FOR THE SAME PROJECT, ARE BOTH EXTENDED?
While both permits may technically be extended, they would run concurrently, such that the four
year extension on the second permit would be the controlling and relevant deadline. For
example, if your permit were due to expire on August 15, 2009, and you applied for and received
a one year extension until August 15, 2010, your new permit deadline would be August 1.5, 2014.
CAN AN AGENCY REVOKE OR SUSPEND A PERMIT OR APPROVAL TO AVOID THE 4 YEAR
EXTENSION?
No. An issuing agency must have an independent reason authorized by the terms of the permit,
the statute or the regulation to revoke or to suspend a permit.
DOES THE ACT REVIVE PERMITS THAT EXPIRED DURING THE QUALIFYING PERIOD WHERE A
REQUEST FOR AN EXTENSION OR RENEWAL WAS ALREADY DENIED?
Yes. The Act only preserves certain rights of an agency to suspend or to revoke an approval.
Even if an extension had been previously denied, the permit or approval is revived by the Act.
However, a permitting authority retains its rights to revoke or modify a permit to the extent
authorized permitted by the underlying permit, statutory or regulatory authority.
CAN THE ISSUING AGENCY CONDITION THE EXTENSION TO CORRECT PROBLEMS, ERRORS,
AND/OR PROJECT CHANGES SINCE THE PERMIT EXPIRED?
No. The extension is automatic and no conditions can be placed on the extension. The Act
automatically changes the expiration date of a qualifying approval. Any work that takes place
under an extended permit or approval must conform to the existing performance standards.
However, an issuing agency may modify the conditions of the extended permit or approval if the
underlying statutory or regulatory authority would allow such modification.
CAN THE ISSUING AGENCY MODIFY A PERMIT OR APPROVAL TO CORRECT PROBLEMS, ERRORS,
AND/OR PROJECT CHANGES SINCE THE PERMIT EXPIRED?
Yes. The Act preserves the issuing agency's authority to modify an approval if the underlying
statutory or regulatory authority would allow a modification to correct problems, errors, or
project changes. Any work that takes place under an extended permit or approval must conform
to performance standards otherwise applicable to the permit as originally granted or previously
extended.
4
THE PERMIT EXTENSION ACT
UPDATED SEPTEMBER 18, 2012
DOES THE ISSUING AGENCY'S AUTHORITY TO MODIFY A PERMIT INCLUDE REVISING A
WETLAND RESOURCE DELINEATION?
Yes. The Act preserves the issuing agency's authority to modify an approval if the underlying
statutory or regulatory authority would allow a modification to correct problems, errors, or
project changes. Any work that takes place under an extended permit or approval must conform
to performance standards otherwise applicable to the permit as originally granted or previously
extended.
CAN A WETLAND RESOURCE DELINEATION WHICH HAS BEEN EXTENDED BY THE PERMIT
EXTENSION ACT BE AMENDED?
Yes. Where the most recent governing wetland's approval (Determination of Applicability,
Order of Resource Delineation or Order of Conditions) was extended by the PEA, a property
owner or the owner's agent may file a request to amend the associated wetland delineation,
provided that the request can only be submitted after the date the governing approval would have
expired in the absence of the Permit Extension Act.
CAN THE ISSUING AGENCY TAKE ENFORCEMENT ACTION TO ADDRESS NONCOMPLIANCE?
Yes. The Act upholds the issuing agency's enforcement authority.
DOES THE ACT AFFECT MITIGATION THAT WAS REQUIRED AS A CONDITION OF MY PERMIT?
No. Any and all conditions that applied to the permit or approval extended by the Act continue to
apply.
IS ANYTHING OTHER THAN THE EXPIRATION DATE OF MY PERMIT OR APPROVAL CHANGED BY
THE ACT?
No. A permit or approval is subject to the same substantive terms that applied when it was
issued by the agency, except that any interim deadlines established by the permit are extended
for four years. Permits or approvals can be modified under the same terms that were originally
contained in the permit or approval or that are authorized by the underlying statute or
regulations.
IF WORK UNDER A PERMIT OR APPROVAL REQUIRES OTHER PERMITS, ARE THEY ALSO
AUTOMATICALLY EXTENDED?
If such permits or approvals are covered by the Act and were issued or already in effect during
the qualifying period, they would also be extended.
IF AN APPROVAL HOLDER IS IN VIOLATION, DOES THE ACT EXTEND THE PERMIT OR APPROVAL?
Yes, but the issuing agency can take appropriate enforcement action if a violation has occurred.
The Act does not alter other substantive provisions of the permit or approval, or the authority of
the issuing agency under which it was issued.
WHAT IF A PERMIT WAS ISSUED DURING THE QUALIFYING PERIOD BUT WAS SUBJECT TO AN
ADMINISTRATIVE APPEAL?
A permit or approval that was pending adjudicatory appeal during the qualifying period is not
extended because it is not a final permit or approval and as such is not "in effect or existence."
THE PERMIT EXTENSION ACT
UPDATED SEPTEMBER 18, 2012
However, if the administrative appeal that prevented the permit or approval from taking effect
was resolved and a final permit was issued during the qualifying period, it is a permit in effect or
existence and is entitled to the four year extension. If the administrative appeal is resolved and a
final permit is issued after the qualifying period, the final permit is not entitled to the four year
extension.
WHAT IF A PERMIT WAS ISSUED DURING THE QUALIFYING PERIOD BUT IS NOW PENDING
JUDICIAL APPEAL?
As with any permit pending judicial appeal, it is subject to the court's ultimate decision. If a
permit that would qualify for the extension is pending appeal, and the court upholds the permit,
the permit will qualify for an extension. There is no need for an extension if the court invalidates
the permit.
WHAT IF A PERMIT WAS ISSUED DURING THE QUALIFYING PERIOD BUT WAS APPEALED TO
COURT AND THE COURT'S DECISION UPHOLDING THE PERMIT WAS NOT ISSUED UNTIL AFTER
THE QUALIFYING PERIOD?
Because the permit was issued during the qualifying period, it was in effect or existence during
the qualifying period and qualifies for an extension.
IS THERE ANY REASON WHY A PERMIT OR APPROVAL EXTENDED PURSUANT TO THE ACT
WOULD NOT BE ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE EXTENSIONS PURSUANT TO THE STATUTES AND
REGULATIONS THAT APPLY TO THAT PERMIT OR APPROVAL?
No. Such permits would be subject to any substantive provision of the underlying statutes or
regulations.
CAN AN APPROVAL HOLDER REFUSE AN EXTENSION?
No. If the Act applies to a permit or approval, it is automatically extended. However, an
approval holder can surrender its approval under the same terms and conditions of that permit or
approval that it could absent the Act.
WHAT EDITION OF THE STATE BUILDING CODE (780 CMR) IS A PROJECT PROCEEDING UNDER
AN EXTENDED PERMIT SUBJECT TO?
A project should proceed in accordance with the edition of the State Building Code under which
the permit was issued.
UNDERSTANDING THAT CHAPTER 40B PERMITS ARE EXEMPT FROM THIS ACT, ARE THE NON -
40B PERMITS ASSOCIATED WITH A 40B PROJECT (SUCH AS WETLANDS PERMITS,
ETC.)EXTENDED?
Yes. Only permits issued under sections 20 to 23 of Chapter 40B are not extended. All other
permits associated with the project are extended.
ARE 40R PAYMENTS OR THE CLAWBACK OF ZONING INCENTIVE FUNDS EXTENDED?
No. The Act applies only to the use or development of real property and does not extend Chapter
40R incentive payments.

RE: Septic System Design, 250 Farnham Street, North Andover, Map 107A, Lot 99
Dear Mr. Higgenbottom,
The North Andover Board of Health has completed the review of the septic system design plans,
for the above referenced property, submitted on your behalf by New England Engineering
Services, dated June 3, 2008, last revised August 13, 2008. This plan has been approved. The
approval includes;
1) a Local Upgrade Approval for the request to have only one test pit within the area of the
proposed system.
2) A Local Upgrade Approval for the request for the use of a sieve analysis in lieu of a
percolation test
3) To allow the use of an impervious barrier and segmental wall in lieu of a poured concrete
wall.
Please keep a copy of the attached 9b document for your records. This plan is valid for two years
from the date of this approval.
The design has been approved for use in the construction of an onsite septic system for a 4 -
bedroom house (maximum 9 -room). During this time, a licensed septic system installer must
obtain a permit and complete this work, and a Certificate of Compliance be endorsed by the
installer, designer and the Town of North Andover. In the event an imminent health problem
such as sewage backup into the dwelling is occurring, the North Andover Board of Health may
reduce the time period for which this plan is valid.
This approval is subject to the following conditions:
1. If site conditions are found in the field to be different from those indicated on the design plan
and/or soil evaluation, the originally issued Disposal System Construction Permit is void,
installation shall stop, and the applicant shall reapply for a new Disposal Systems
Construction Permit.
2. It is the responsibility of the applicant and/or the applicant's septic system designer, septic
system installer or other representative to ensure that all other state and municipal

compliance with any of the aforementioned requirement.
The Presby Enviro-Septic Leaching System has requirements as set forth in the DEP
approval (see attached document) Review section V. Conditions Applicable to the System
Owner.
2. The System owner shall at all times properly operate and maintain the on-site sewage
disposal system. The System owner shall have the System inspected annually by an operator
trained by the Company and shall submit the results of that inspection, on a technology
checklist, to the local approving authority.
5. Prior to the issuance of a Certificate of Compliance or the System, the System owner shall
record and/or register in the appropriate Registry of Deeds and /or Land Registration Office,
a Notice disclosing or/ the existence of the alternative septic system subject to this Approval

Massachusetts with the necessary permits and approvals required by 310 CMR
15.000.
2. With the necessary permits and approvals required by 310 CMR 15.000, this
Approval for Remedial Use authorizes the use and installation of the System in
Massachusetts.
3. The System may only be installed where conditions meet the criteria of 310 CMR
15.284(2). The System is an alternative system approved in accordance with 310 CMR
15.280 through 15.289 and is used to treat and dispose of wastewater.
4. This Approval for Remedial Use allows the use of the System where the local
approving authority finds that the System is for upgrade of a failed, failing or
nonconforming system. The Title 5 design flow for the facility must be less than
10,000 gallons per day.
II. Design and Construction Standards
1. The System is a subsurface unit that replaces a soil absorption system (SAS) designed
in accordance with 310 CMR 15.000. The System consists of an 11 5/8 -inch diameter
corrugated, high-density plastic pipe with a 9.5 -inch interior diameter and a length of 10
feet. The exterior of the pipe has ridges on the peak of each corrugation. The pipe is
perforated with eight holes equally distributed around its inner circumference. Each
hole has a plastic skimmer extending inwards. The exterior of the pipe shall have a
minimum of two layers of material. The inner layer shall be a thick layer of coarse,
randomly oriented polypropylene fibers. The outer layer shall be a non -woven geo-
textile polypropylene fabric. The pipe shall be installed in a concrete system sand bed
and surrounded on all sides by a minimum of six inches of system sand. Depth to the
high groundwater elevation shall be measured from the bottom of the system sand
underlying the pipe.
2. The System sand shall meet ASTM C-33.
3. Systems shall be installed with a differential venting for aeration and inspection at
end of each run of pipe, section or serial bed and whenever the System is installed
under impervious surfaces._
4. The System shall be designed and installed using distribution boxes for inspection
ports. The pipe between the distribution box and the System shall be installed at a
minimum slope of 0.02 feet/foot.

Re: Septic System Repair Plan for 250 Farnum Street
Map 107A, Lot 99
Dear Mr. Osgood:
The proposed wastewater system design plan for the above site dated June 3, 2008 and
received on June 27, 2008 has been reviewed. Unfortunately, the plan cannot be approved
until the following items are corrected. The specific section in Title 5: 310 CMR 15.000, or
North Andover (NA) regulation that has not met by this design follows each item for your
convenience.
1. Only one (1) deep observation hole is utilized in the primary soil absorption area.
Please request a Local Upgrade Approval (15.102(2)).
` Please specify and depict where appropriate, a riser to within 6" of final grade for the
Y distribution box (15.232(3), 221(13), 228(1)).
v3 Please provide buoyancy calculations for the septic tank or describe why calculations
are not provided (15.221(8)).
,4 Under "Design Data", the sand bed area provided (32'x 25'= 800 S.F.) does not reflect
°� what is shown on the site plan (30'x 28' = 840 S.F.) or depicted in the "End Layout
ZDetail". Please clarify the correct sand bed area proposed.
5Under "Design Data", the Enviro-Septic system size provided (9 Rows of 30' Chambers
Spaced at 2.75' = 270 L. F.) does not reflect what is shown on the site plan (10 Rows of
26' Chambers Spaced at 3.0'= 260 L.F.) or depicted in the "End Layout Detail". Please
clarify the correct size of the Enviro-Septic system.
6. Please provide the DEP approval letter (general or remedial use) for the Enviro-Septic
system that is being proposed.
Please indicate on the plan the maintenance requirements of the Enviro-Septic system
in accordance with the DEP approval letter.
$. In accordance with the Alternative To Percolation Testing Guidance, the soil evaluator
v must determine whether the soils are compacted or uncompacted. Please provide this
determination.

Although not reasons for disapproval, you may consider the following:
1. Providing an Enviro-Septic system with 30' length lines instead of 26'. Each Enviro-
Septic line has a length of 10'. This would eliminate the need for the installer to cut the
pipes during installation.
2. According to the sieve analysis, the percentage of sand is 70.3 which would allow the
use of a loading factor of 0.66 GPD/SF in accordance with the Alternative To
Percolation Testing Guidance.
Please feel free to contact the office with any questions you may have. We look forward to
working with you to obtain a wastewater treatment and dispersal system which will be in
compliance with all regulations and assure protection of public health and the environment of
North Andover.
