Essex Inc. 660 Rogers Street Lowell, MA 01852 Re: Septic testing - Evergreen Estates Dear Mr. Coulliard, 2 41991 I am writing to remind you that some of the lots in the Evergreen Estates subdivision require additional septic testing prior to Building Permit issuance per the decision of the Planning Board. I have had several applicants come into my office seeking a building permit who were unaware of these conditions. The leaching bed must be excavated on lots 4, 5, 19, and 20 before a building permit can be issued. If the leaching bed has not been excavated, the applicant may choose to place a note on the deed for the lot stating that the septic system must be installed, inspected and approved by the Board of Health in accordance with all state and local regulations before construction of the primary building is begun. This includes the pouring of foundation walls. A certified copy of the recorded deed must be submitted to the Planning Department and Board of Health. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to call me at 688-98535. Very truly yours, Kathleen Bradley Colwell Town Planner cc. W. Scott, Dir. CD&S S. Starr, Health Adm.

Scott Community Development Director 30 School Street North Andover, MA 01845 RE: Request for Reimbursable Septic Design Cages We are writing to you to express, our dissatisfaction: regarding North Andover health administrator services and are requesting to be-reimbursed'in the amount of $3,885 for additional charges incurred due to the administration's improper actions. History: In February 1997, I spoke to Sandra Starr regarding -an approved septic system design for Lot 18 in Evergreen Estates Development. She informed me that the "Form U"; i.e; approval for the septic system would not be granted until either the, bottom of bed inspection is done or as an alternative the septic system must be installed prior. to building, construction. (See attachment A - Lett&f om Sandra Starr). Sandra Starr made the first bottom of bed inspection in March 1997 and determined that.a piece of ledge located on one shoulder of the bed must first be removed in order for her to approve the septic as per design dated 1/16/97. The rock was immediately removed as per her request at a cost $1,217.50. (See attachment B - 7T&C Construction Co., -Invoice). Sandra later revisited the site and subsequently approved the bottom of bed of the designed septic system in April 1997. (See attachment C - Form U Verification Form). During this month, Lot 18 was purchased by Donald & Marlene Wilkes from DECM Essex Inc. subject to conditions outlined in the purchase and sale agreement; i.e. buildable lot with approved septic system design. Throughout the next several months the septic system installer made numerous attempts to complete the septic system installation pending Sandra's approval. Finally in August 1997, Sandra revisited the site and determined that the original septic system design was inadequate. Note this design was already approved by Ms. Starr. It was explained to me by my installer that Ms. Starr wanted the bed to be pivoted and moved away from the ledge that has been previously excavated. After numerous discussions between Phil Christiansen and Sandra Starr, a second septic system design was produced. Phil Christiansen informed me that the redesign was ready and a COD. payment in the amount of $360.00 must be paid before the prints could be picked up. (See Attachment D - Bill for Redesign). Because of the septic system installation delays, the bill was Page 1 paid and the plans were picked up. After resubmitting the plan to Sandra Star, she later determined that the second design did not meet her requirements and a complete redesign of the system was in order. These actions started to cause both financial and emotional hardship on myself and wife. My wife made several visits to the doctor for illness and stress caused by the Ms. Starr's actions. About this time I meet with you and Al Couliard in the North Andover Community Center building to discuss problems with septic system installations and Ms. Starr's performance. Additional discussions resulted between Phil Christiansen/Dan O'Connor and Sandra Starr regarding a third design of the septic system. By this time the house was 90% complete and still Ms. Starr was not satisfied with any of the designs that she supposedly helped produce. Finally a third design was presented by Christiansen & Sergi dated 9/26/97. Christiansen submitted another bill in the amount of $1,107.50 (See Atfachment E). These_plans were immediately resubmitted to Sandra. Starr by myself. At first she said that the plans weren't what she .wanted. If it wasn't for the sympathy and help- of one your- assistant's (unnamed.), -the third plan -wouldn't never have been reviewed by Ms.. Starr in a=timely manner. The -next day I n - received a call from Ms. Starr stating she approved these new set of plans. The first approved septic system design by Sandra Starr consisted of two trenches and was simple to install. The third design consisted of eight pre -cast concrete chambers and added an additional $1,200 to the overall cost of the septic system. (See Attachment F - Septic Charges) In summary we could never image the emotional stress and pain with the dealings of a public town official, Sandra Starr. Not only did my wife and I endure -pain and suffering, the house completion was delayed by 2 months, and a financial hardship in the amount of $1,885 was incurred because of Ms. Starr's actions and abuse of power. These charges are outlined as follows: - $1,217.50 - Remove ledge per Ms. Starr $360.00 - Second septic redesign $1,107.50 - Third septic redesign $1,200.00 - Additional septic installation costs; pre -cast chambers We feel that the town of North Andover should take the responsibility of Ms. Starr's actions and reduce the financial hardship by reimbursing us the $3,885 incurred beyond the original septic system design which Sandra Starr approved back in April 1997. Your actions will help restore our confidence in North Andover's community services,. - Your kind attention .and timely response will be appreciated. If you would like to discuss the content of this letter further, we can be reached at 978 960-4046 (work) or 978 682-7223 (home). Thank you again for your time and understanding.

As a followup to our conversation of this morning, I am sending you a �- copy of the Planning Board decision concerning Evergreen Estates and a table with the status of all lots in the subdivision.. As you can see from the table, Lot 18 must have the bottom of bed inspection before the "Form Ll" can be signed off by Health, or as an alternative, the septic system must- be installed prior to any building construction being done on the lot. As I'explaihed.to you, if the septic system cannot be installed at this location due to_scillrock conditions, it does not necessarily mean the lot is unbuildable, it simply means the septic system cannot be constructed in that exact location. I also explained to you that Mr. Couillard and I have already spoken about having the bottom of bed excavated, but no application has as yet been made. I hope this information and our conversation will be of help to you. Please call if: you have any further questions. Sincerely, Sandra Starr, R.S.

SCOTT North Andover, Massachusetts 01845 Director MEMORANDUM DATE: December 16, 1997 TO: William J. Scott, Director of Community Development & Services FROM: Sandra Starr, Health' ' t for RE: Lot 18 Evergreen Estates This memo comes in response to your memorandum of December 8, 1997 concerning the chronology relative to Lot 18 Evergreen Estates. February 10: Telephone -discussion with, and followup letter to Mr. Wilkes, March 20: Application by Tim Melvin for permit to excavate the leaching area and issuance of the permit. (Generally we do not charge for a bed bottom temporary permit and do not accept checks for this. In this case I was told that the system would be installed shortly after the approval of the bed bottom so the check was taken and held until the full permit was issued.) March 21: 1 inspected the bottom of the bed and noted a small 4' — 5' outcrop of bedrock in the northwest corner of the excavation. Since the impact on the system appeared to be minimal, I. approved the bed bottom. I believed that, with the small size of the outcrop, there was sufficient room to slightly alter the lay of the trenches to avoid the area. None of the submitted plans indicated that any other deposit of bedrock lay in the general area. April 2: The Form U was signed. July 28: The Disposal Works Construction Permit for the full installation was issued to Tim Melvin. August 18: I responded to a request from Tim Melvin to re -inspect the bottom of the bed. Since such a long time had passed with the leaching area open and unprotected (no sand fill), Mr. Melvin and I had agreed that the bottom should be cleaned out somewhat. Usually this entails, perhaps, 4 — 6 inches of soil removal and scarification of the bottom soil. The inspection showed that a great deal more than 6 inches of soil had been removed and that the bedrock deposit in the northwest corner was significantly larger than originally thought. The engineer was contacted and asked to develop. anew plan showing the extent of the bedrock and shifting the leaching lines to avoid the area. I was told that an area of bedrock had been found to the rear of the system during the original testing, possibly limiting the area available for leaching trenches. I asked why no bedrock outcrop was ever shown on any of the submitted plans. This is usually done. September 3: A new plan was submitted for Board of Health review, showing an 8' by 4' outcrop of bedrock in the far northwest corner. September 17: I measured the outcrop of exposed bedrock and found that it measured roughly 11' by 17', thereby significantly impacting the leaching area. Spoke to Dan O'Connell of Christiansen & Sergi about the discrepancy in actual and represented size, and he stated that he had not been to the site to evaluate the problem and the extent of the outcrop.

Once the plan was approved the system was installed, approved and given a Certificate of compliance. I hope this answers any questions that have arisen or that may come up in the future.

Re: Evergreen Estates Lot 12 Beaver Brook Road North Andover, Ma. Dear Ms. Starr. Regarding our conservation on Friday Sept. 26, 1997, 1 had an opportunity to review the soil conditions for the proposed septic system location at the above referenced site. Itis in my opinion that there is not enough naturally occurring material below and surrounding the proposed system to be considered adequate to properly treat the Wastewater disposal. The material consisted of sharp angular stone and weathered rock with fractures. The rock did not have any particles stuck to the face of the stone as if were surrounded by natural material but gave the appearance of having been blasted and left in place. If the blasting condition were true, there would be a direct fracture to the ground water that the untreated wastewater could travel. It is my opinion that there should not be a soil absorption system constructed in the area that I had reviewed. If you have any further question regarding this site, please feel free to call me anytime. Very truly yours, Gordon Rogerson Certified Soil Evaluator 4 Site Plans Wetland Delineations Wetland Replication Plans Town of North Andover Health Department Town Hall North Andover, MA 01845 Dear Staff, STEVEN J. D'URSO Registered Professional Sanitarian New Hampshire Designer Certified Soil Scientist Wetland Scientist Soil Tests Soil Surveys Septic System Designs September 22, 1997 RE: Lot 12 Evergreen Est. On September 15, 1997, at the request of Al Couillard, the bed bottom on Lot# 12 Beaver Brook Road was inspected. The purpose -of the inspection was to determine if a septic system could be installed con- forming to the requirements of Title 5 ( ie. 4' of permeable soil below the system ). A part of the excavation had exposed ledge on the south side. The septic system was redesigned from a trench system to a leach chamber system reducing the size of the bottom area. It appears that the re- confiquration of the soil absorption system utilizes that area in the excavation where soil exists rather than the exposed ledge. In addition, the Soil Profile from a Plan of Christiansen & Sergi titled Septic System Design, Lot 1112 Evergreen Estates, dated Rev 7/22/97 shows that .the chamber system is to be installed at existing grade with approximately 4' of sand replacing the existing A & Bw horizons. 22 Lilly Pond Road STEVEN J. D'URSO W. Boxford, MA 01921 Environmental Designs (508) 352-9872 r Both of these factors will ensure that the system will function in accordance with the requirements of Title 5.

Scott Community Development Director 30 School Street North Andover, MA 01845 RE: Request for Reimbursable Septic Design Charges We are writing to you to express our dissatisfaction regarding North Andover health administrator services and are requesting to be reimbursed in the amount of $3,885 for additional charges incurred due to the administration's improper actions. History: In February 1997, I spoke to Sandra Starr regarding an approved septic system design for Lot 18 in Evergreen Estates Development. She informed me that the "Form U"; i.e; approval for the septic system would not be granted until either the bottom of bed inspection is done or as an alternative the septic system must be installed prior to building construction. (See attachment A - Letter from Sandra Starr). Sandra Starr made the first bottom of bed inspection in March 1997 and determined that a piece of ledge located on one shoulder of the bed must first be removed in order for her to approve the septic as per design dated 1/16/97. The rock was immediately removed as per her request at a cost $1,217.50. (See attachment B - JT&C Construction Co., Invoice). Sandra later revisited the site and subsequently approved the bottom of bed of the designed septic system in April 1997. (See attachment C - Form U Verification Form). During this month, Lot 18 was purchased by Donald & Marlene Wilkes from DECM Essex Inc. subject to conditions outlined in the purchase and sale agreement; i.e. buildable lot with approved septic system design. Throughout the next several months the septic system installer made numerous attempts to complete the septic system installation pending Sandra's approval. Finally in August 1997, Sandra revisited the site and determined that the original septic system design was inadequate. Note this design was already approved by Ms. Starr. It was explained to me by my installer that Ms. Starr wanted the bed to be pivoted and moved away from the ledge that has been previously excavated. After numerous discussions between Phil Christiansen and Sandra Starr, a second septic system design was produced. Phil Christiansen informed me that the redesign was ready and a COD payment in the amount of $360.00 must be paid before the prints could be picked up. (See Attachment D - Bill for Redesign). Because of the septic system installation delays, the bill was Page 1 paid and the plans were picked up. After resubmitting the plan to Sandra Star, she later determined that the second design did not meet her requirements and a complete redesign of the system was in order. These actions started to cause both financial and emotional hardship on myself and wife. My wife made several visits to the doctor for illness and stress caused by the Ms. Starr's actions. About this time I meet with you and Al Couliard in the North Andover Community Center building to discuss problems with septic system installations and Ms. Starr's performance. Additional discussions resulted between Phil Christiansen/Dan O'Connor and Sandra Starr regarding a third design of the septic system. By this time the house was 90% complete and still Ms. Starr was not satisfied with any of the designs that she supposedly helped produce. Finally a third design was presented by Christiansen & Sergi dated 9/26/97. Christiansen submitted another bill in the amount of $1,107.50 (See Attachment E). These plans were immediately resubmitted to Sandra Starr by myself. At first she said that the plans weren't what she wanted. If it wasn't for the sympathy and help of one your assistant's (unnamed), the third plan wouldn't never have been reviewed by Ms. Starr in a timely manner. The next day I received a call from Ms. Starr stating she approved these new set of plans. The first approved septic system design by Sandra Starr consisted of two trenches and was simple to install. The third design consisted of eight pre -cast concrete chambers and added an additional $1,200 to the overall cost of the septic system. (See Attachment F - Septic Charges) In summary we could never image the emotional stress and pain with the dealings of a public town official, Sandra Starr. Not only did my wife and I endure pain and suffering, the house completion was delayed by 2 months, and a financial hardship in the amount of $3,885 was incurred because of Ms. Starr's actions and abuse of power. These charges are outlined as follows: $1,217.50 - Remove ledge per Ms. Starr $360.00 - Second septic redesign $1,107.50 - Third septic redesign $1,200.00 - Additional septic installation costs; pre -cast chambers We feel that the town of North Andover should take the responsibility of Ms. Stan's actions and reduce the financial hardship by reimbursing us the $3,885 incurred beyond the original septic system design which Sandra Starr approved back in April 1997. Your actions will help restore our confidence in North Andover's community services. Your kind attention and timely response will be appreciated. If you would like to discuss the content of this letter further, we can be reached at 978 960-4046 (work) or 978 682-7223 (home). Thank you again for your time and understanding.

SCOTT Director 3 -73 - c 3 I'0 February 10, 1997 Don Wilkes RE: Lot 18 Evergreen Estates Dear Mr. Wilkes: As a followup to our conversation of this morning, I am sending you a copy of the Planning Board decision concerning Evergreen Estates and a table with the status of all lots in the subdivision. As you can see from the table, Lot 18 must have the bottom of bed inspection before the "Form Ll" can be signed off by Health, or as an alternative, the septic system must be installed prior to any building construction being done on the lot. As I explained to you, if the septic system cannot be installed at this location due to soil/rock conditions, it does not necessarily mean the lot is unbuildable, it simply means the septic system cannot be constructed in that exact location. I also explained to you that Mr. Couillard and I have already spoken about having the bottom of bed excavated, but no application has as yet been made. I hope this information and our conversation will be of help to you. Please call if you have any further questions. Sincerely, J Sandra Starr, R.S.

North Andover, Massachusetts 01845 • WILLIAM J. SCOTT SSACMUS� Director December 18, 1997 Mr. & Mrs. Donald Wilkes 71 Beaver Brook Road North Andover, MA 01845 - Dear Mr. & Mrs. Wilkes: This letter is in reference to your letter of December 4, 1997 regarding the development of Lot 18 and the issues of septic -system installation.-- I have attached. a chronology of events leading to the design changes required by the Health Department. Three items are of particular issue: 1. Through no fault of the Health Department the "bottom of bed" laid open and exposed from March 21 to August 18. The developer had the opportunity to proceed during this time with the installation. While the timeline was affected by redesign, several months delay can be attributed to the developers lack of action. 2. As a result of the open bed the bed required excavation again. 3. Upon the subsequent excavation, additional ledge was found which changed the condition under which the original septic design was developed. The -original approval for the system was based on conditions seen at the time of the plan development. The exposure of additional ledge changed those conditions and precipitated further design. The obligation of the Town is to follow the regulations and protect the public health. The failure of the Health Department to request the removal of ledge and require a system that met Title V would have been an oversight that would have caused greater problems to you and the Town. As a case in point, a system designed off Berry Street is now in litigation with the Town because the property owner claims that the Town allowed a system to be improperly constructed and constructed on the wrong property, this system was approved prior to Ms. Starr's working for the Town. The Town's culpability is greater when the staff fails to enforce the regulations allowing ineffective systems to be constructed. During Ms. Starr's tenure the Town has not had a septic system failure for any system that she has reviewed. CONSERVATION - (978) 688 9530 • HEALTH - (978) 688-9540 • PLANNING - (978) 688-9535 *BUILDINGOFFICE - (978) 688-9545 • *ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS - (978) 688-9541 0 *146 MAIN STREET Mr. & Mrs. Donald Wilkes December 18, 1997 Page 2 — You should be discussing the cost overruns with your developer. The fact that ledge was on your site and it required removal for installation of the system is not a factor that was caused by the Health Department. The fact that the bed lay open from March to August is not the fault of the Health Department. A greater percentage of lots in your area are faced with ledge. In fact, the engineer at one point, failed to properly indicate the full_extent of the ledge which required additional plans. An omission on the plan is not the fault of the Town. Ms. Starr then confirmed the error by an onsite measurement. — At our prior meeting, another lot owner was presentand was concerned with the design issue facing his lot. As a means to mitigate—a dispute over design,. the Health Department offered to have a staff person from.the-State Department of Environmental Protection determine --the appropriate course of action. The Developer opted to not request the DEP secondary review. The system -resulted in the chamber system_design to mitigate the problems created by-severe_soil conditions. This is the same system type that.was designed for your Ioty Itis _ clear by other excavations in the area of the -Evergreen Subdivision that ledge is a problem. The Town has no reason to request inordinate design.and construction. -The primary reasons for the construction methods..is the proper construction -for _ protection of public health. The Town cannot anticipate the subsurface conditions and, as a result of those unforeseen conditions, the plans required a change. In short, I apologize for the issues that you faced in developing your lot. However, those conditions and the resulting design change_ s are not the responsibility of the.Town. Sincerely, WILLIAM J. SCOTT Director DATE: TO: FROM: RE: Town of North Andover OFFICE OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT AND SERVICES 30 School Street North Andover, Massachusetts 01845 MEMORANDUM December 16, 1997 William J. Scott, Director of Community Development & Services Sandra Starr, Healtht for Lot 18 Evergreen Estates This memo comes in response to your memorandum of December 8, 1997 concerning the chronology relative to Lot 18 Evergreen Estates, February 10: Telephone discussion with, and followup letter to Mr. Wilkes. March 20: Application by Tim Melvin for permit to excavate the leaching area and issuance of the permit. (Generally we do not charge for a bed bottom temporary permit and do not accept checks for this. In this case I was told that the system would be installed shortly after the approval of the bed bottom so the check was taken and held until the full permit was issued.) March 21: I inspected the bottom of the bed and noted a small 4' — 5' outcrop of bedrock in the northwest corner of the excavation. Since the impact on the system appeared to be minimal, I approved the bed bottom. I believed that, with the small size of the outcrop, there was sufficient room to slightly alter the lay of the trenches to avoid the area. None of the submitted plans indicated that any other deposit of bedrock lay in the general area. April 2: The Form U was signed. July 28: The Disposal Works Construction Permit for the full installation was issued to Tim Melvin. August 18: I responded to a request from Tim Melvin to re -inspect the bottom of the bed. Since such a long time had passed with the leaching area open and unprotected (no sand fill), Mr. Melvin and I had agreed that the bottom should be cleaned out somewhat. Usually this entails, perhaps, 4 — 6 inches of soil removal and scarification of the bottom soil. The inspection showed that a great deal more than 6 inches of soil had been removed and that the bedrock deposit in the northwest corner was significantly larger than originally thought. The engineer was contacted and asked to develop a new plan showing the extent of the bedrock and shifting the leaching lines to avoid the area. I was told that an area of bedrock had been found to the rear of the system during the original testing, possibly limiting the area available for leaching trenches. I asked why no bedrock outcrop was ever shown on any of the submitted plans. This is usually done. September 3: A new plan was submitted for Board of Health review, showing an 8' by 4' outcrop of bedrock in the far northwest corner. September 17: I measured the outcrop of exposed bedrock and found that it measured roughly I F by 17', thereby significantly impacting the leaching area. Spoke to Dan O'Connell of Christiansen & Sergi about the discrepancy in actual and represented size, and he stated that he had not been to the site to evaluate the problem and the extent of the outcrop.

After discussions with the engineer to appeal for a trench system (no possibility in the area available for leaching) and to work out some technical difficulties, the plan was approved on October 1, 1997. Once the plan was approved the system was installed, approved and given a Certificate of compliance. I hope this answers any questions that have arisen or that may come up in the fixture.

The separation distance specified in 15.2530)(c) shall be applied to adjacent chamber or gallery systems as a unit rather than to the individually connected chambers or galleries", The systems we have designed for lots 12 and lg of the Evergreen Estates Subdivision are chamber systems and the separation distance should be applied from the exterior of the system and not individually between the system components. The proposed system on both lots 12 and 18 are chamber systems that are comprised of many individual chambers that act together to form a single system. The sewage is distributed evenly to all of the chambers. Only the exterior side walls of the system are used for leaching and because of that the separation distance should only be applied from the exterior was of the total system. NORT" O'4"S.
