30. The following wetland resource areas are affected by the proposed work: Riverfront
Resource Area, Bordering Land Subject to Flooding (el 206.7), and 100' 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 as
shown on the record plan referenced herein with the exception of wetland flag #2 and
an unlabeled wetland flag located within the 20' drain easement at elevation 94.39. A
temporary pipe in the adjacent catch basin (not shown on the plan) was installed to divert
stormwater into a temporary sediment basin on the subject property during the
development of this subdivision. The North Andover Department of Public Works
recently capped off this pipe in order to redirect the stormwater towards the headwall
and outlet near Mosquito Brook. As a result of this, this finger-like portion of the BVW
will naturally recede towards wetland flags #1 and #3, as identified on the record plan.
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 (BVW) except as shown on the record plan referenced
herein. 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. The NACC finds the applicant's proposal for 120 sq. ft. of compensatory flood storage to
be adequate. The compensatory flood storage area shall be constructed prior to other
construction activity on site and this sequence shall be reflected in the construction
sequence. (Refer to Section 8.3 (p.37) of the local Regulations for perforniance standards).
34. 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.
35. 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.
CAW inword\ooC\35HoIIyRidgeRd 3 NACC 9/28/2005

36. 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 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.
37. 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.
"PRIORT(O CONSTRUCTION
38. 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.
39. 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.
40. 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 242-1320."
41. 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 may be still under review by other local
CAW inword\ooC\35HoIlyRidgeRd 4 NACC 9/28/2005
DEP FILE # 242 -1320
or state boards or agencies. This may result 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 review and approval prior to the start of construction. No
work shall begin on a project until written approval has been granted by the NACC.
42. It is the responsibility of the applicant, owner, and/or successor(s) to ensure that all
conditions of this Order of Conditions are complied with. The project engineer and
contractors are to be provided with a copy of this Order of Conditions and referenced
documents before commencement of construction.
43. 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.
44. Prior to the commencement of any work on site, a Registered Land Surveyor (R.L.S.)
shall stake the proposed flood storage area. These measurements will be verified
during the pre -construction meeting.
45. Wetland flagging shall be checked prior to start of construction and shall be re-
established where missing. All wetland flagging shall remain visible and enumerated
per the approved plan(s) throughout the life of the project and until a Certificate of
Compliance is issued so that erosion control measures can be properly placed and
wetland impacts can be monitored. The proposed limit of work shall be shall be clearly
marked with stakes or flags and shall be confirmed by the NACC. 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.
46. 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.
CAW invord\OOC\35HolIyRidgeRd 5 NACC 9/28/2005

47. The applicant shall have on hand at the start of any soil disturbance, removal or
stockpiling, a minimum of 10 hay bales and sufficient stakes for staking these�bales (or an
equivalent amount of silt fence). Said bales shall be used only for the control of
emergency erosion problems and shall not be used for the normal control of erosion.
48. A check payable to the Town of North Andover shall be provided in the amount of
$1,500 ($1000- addition; $3 /.s.f. of replication @ 120s.f. = $360), which shall be in all
respects satisfactory to Town Counsel, Town Treasurer, and the NACC, and shall be
posted with the North Andover Town Treasurer through the NACC before
commencement of work. Said deposit of money shall be conditioned on the completion
of all conditions hereof, shall be signed by a party or parties satisfactory to the NACC,
and Town Counsel, and shall be released after completion of the project, provided that
,provisions, satisfactory to the NACC, have been made for performance of any conditions
which are of continuing nature. The applicant may propose a monetary release schedule
keyed to completion of specific portions of the project for the NACC's review and
approval. This condition is issued under the authority of the local Bylaw.
49. Prior to construction, the applicant shall permanently mark the edge of the 25 no -
disturbance zone or the edge of disturbance if the 25' no -disturbance zone is not being
maintained, with twelve (12) markers evenly spaced every 25 -feet incorporating the
following text: "Protected Wetland Resource Area". This will designate their sensitivity
and assure no further inadvertent encroachment into the wetland. These markers can be
purchased at the Conservation Department for $2.00 per marker. These permanent
markers are subject to review and approval by the NACC. The applicant shall instruct
all agents to explain these markers to buyers/ lessees/ landscapers and all persons taking
over the property from the applicant.
50. The applicant and/or the legal owner of that portion of land upon which these Orders of

signed under the pains and penalties of perjury,. stating that said applicant and/or
owner has read these Orders of Conditions and is in compliance with each and every
condition. This document shall apply to each of the conditions referenced herein and
shall be provided to the Conservation Department at least five (5) business days prior to
the closing of said land transaction.
51. Once these above mentioned pre -construction requirements are complete, the applicant
shall contact the Conservation Office prior to site preparation or construction and shall
arrange an on-site conference with an NACC representative, the contractor, the
professional land surveyor and the applicant to ensure that all of the Conditions of this
Order are understood. This Order 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 permitted work are fully aware of the
permit's terms and conditions. Thereafter, the contractor will be held jointly liable for any
C:\Winword\OOC\351]ollyRidgeRd 6 NACC 9/28/2005

violation of this Order of Conditions resulting from failure to comply with its conditions.
The applicant or contractor shall notify the NACC in writing of the identity of the on-site
construction supervisor hired to coordinate construction and to ensure compliance with
this Order. A reasonable period of time shall be provided as notice of the pre -
construction meeting (e.g. 72 hours).
DURING CONSTRUCTION
52. Accepted engineering and construction standards and procedures shall be followed in the
completion of the project.
53. Upon beginning work, the applicant shall submit written progress reports every month
detailing what work has been done in or near resource areas, and what work is
anticipated to be done over the next period. This will update the construction sequence.
54. Compensatory flood storage shall be constructed prior to any filling of the floodplain.
55. The applicant shall ensure that the contractor does not encroach into the 50' No -Build
Zone for any portion of the proposed work.
56. The previous landowner constructed a brick patio within the 25' No -Disturbance Zone
and the 50' No -Build Zone without a valid Order of Conditions as shown the record
plan referenced herein. The NACC determined that portions of this patio must be
removed prior to the issuance of a Certificate of Compliance. The NACC agreed that
the patio could be reconstructed, so as long as it met the 25' No -Disturbance setback.
Further, upon removal of portions of the patio to meet the No -Disturbance setback, the
disturbed area must be immediately restored with a combination of native plantings
and wetland seed mix to prevent inadvertent encroachment into this area. As such, a
buffer zone restoration -planting plan and erosion control plan shall be submitted to
the Conservation Department prior to the removal of the patio for review and approval.
57. De -watering activities anticipated shall be supervised and witnessed by the
Conservation Department. This designee must be on-site while work specific to de-
watering activities are occurring and until complete. Activities will be monitored daily
by the Department to ensure that sediment laden water is appropriately settled prior to
discharge toward the wetland resource areas. No discharge of water is allowed directly
into an area subject to jurisdiction under the MA Wetlands Protection Act and / or the
North Andover Wetlands Bylaw. If emergency de -watering requirements arise, the
applicant shall submit a contingency plan to the Commission for approval, which
provides for the pumped water to be contained in a settling tank or basin, to reduce
turbidity prior to discharge into a resource area.

58. Any fill used in connection with this project shall be clean fill, containing no trash, refuse,
rubbish or debris, including but not limited to lumber, bricks, plaster, wire, lath, paper,
cardboard, pipe, tires, ashes, refrigerators, motor vehicles or parts on any of the
foregoing.
59. No exposed area shall remain unfinished for more than thirty (30) days, unless approved
by the NACC. If soils are left to idle greater than thirty days, all areas shall be seeded
with rye seed to provide immediate stabilization.
60. The contractor will take all steps necessary to control dust onsite so that adverse effects on
adjacent resource areas and / or habitat do not occur.
61. No re -grading in the buffer zone shall have a slope steeper than 2:1 (horizontal: vertical).
Slopes of steeper grade shall be rip -rapped or biodegradable erosion controls to provide
permanent stabilization.
62. There shall be no stockpiling of soil or other materials within fifty (50) feet of any resource
area.
63. Washings from concrete trucks, or surplus concrete, shall not be directed to, any drainage
system, or wetland resource area.
64. All waste generated by, or associated with, the construction activity shall be contained
within the construction area, and away from any wetland resource area. There shall be no
burying of spent construction materials or disposal of waste on the site by any other
means. The applicant shall maintain dumpsters (or other suitable means) at the site for
the storage and removal of such spent construction materials off-site. However, no trash
dumpsters will be allowed within 50' of areas subject to protection under the Act or
local Bylaw.
65. During and after work on this project, there shall be no discharge or spillage of fuel, or
other pollutants into any wetland resource area. If there is a spill or discharge of any
pollutant during any phase of construction the NACC shall be notified by the applicant
within one (1) business day. No construction vehicles are to be stored within 100 feet of
wetland resource areas, and no vehicle refueling, equipment lubrication, or maintenance
is to be done within 100 feet of a resource area. -

issued under the authority of the Town's Wetland Protection Bylaw and shall remain in
perpetuity.
68. Upon completion of construction and grading, all disturbed areas located outside
resource areas shall be stabilized permanently against erosion. This shall be done either
by loaming and seeding according to SCS standards. If the latter course is chosen,
stabilization will be considered complete once vegetative cover has been achieved.
69. Upon approved site stabilization by Conservation staff, the erosion controls shall be
removed and properly disposed of and all exposed unvegetated areas shall be seeded.
70. Upon completion of the project the applicant shall submit the following to the

Subject: RE: Resident Diane Sachs or 35 HollyRidge Road
Everyone,
Mrs. Sachs property at #35 Holly Ridge Road has a long history of drainage issues (prior to Peachtree
development). Basically, Mosquito Brook runs through her property and there is an established flood plain on the
property as well. I spoke to Mrs. Sachs after one of the large rain events (April 2, 2004) and she stated that
Peachtree Development was contributing to and advancing her drainage problems. I explained to her that a
detailed drainage analysis and design was completed for the Peachtree development and that peak flow
rates following development of the site can not exceed peak flow rates prior to construction. To break down a
complicated process ... the engineer must design a drainage system that does not increase peak runoff flows to
off-site areas. Mrs. Sachs stated that she visually witnessed a failure in the detention basin at Peachtree Farms
during the April 2nd storm event.
VHB provided an engineering analysis in 2002 of the Mosquito Brook Drainage Basin and in the report concludes
that little can be done to improve the flooding conditions where Mosquito Brook crosses Holly Ridge Road. VHB
targeted 4 other areas along Mosquito Brook which are presently being analyzed for possible improvements.
Adele ... I am forwarding a memorandum to your attention dated December 12, 2002 which details the Mosquito
Brook Hydrology Review. l have highlighted the areas in the memo which deal in the vicinity of #35 Holly Ridge
Road. If you have any questions please feel free to call.
Jack
