proper working condition;v.any vegetation associated with post-construction BMPs is suitably established to withstand
erosion.

responsibility for BMP maintenance.Prior to requesting a Certificate of Compliance,or Partial Certificate of Compliance,the
responsible party(defined in General Condition 19(e))shall execute and submit to the issuing authority an Operation and
Maintenance Compliance Statement("O&M Statement")for the Stormwater BMPs identifying the party responsible for

than one lot,the legally binding agreement shall also identify the lots that will be serviced by the stormwater BMPs.A plan and
easement deed that grants the responsible party access to perform the required operation and maintenance must be submitted

MassDEP Stormwater Handbook,Volume 3,Chapter 1,Low Impact Development Site Design Credits)shall not be altered
without the prior written approval of the issuing authority.
1) Access for maintenance,repair,and/or replacement of BMPs shall not be withheld.Any,fencing constructed around

Area. This resource area is 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 this resource area to the identified interests.

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. No work shall begin on a project until
written approval has been granted by the NACC.
40. 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

approved by the NACC or its agent 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 or its agent.
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
hall be installed within 48 hours of the Commissions request.
