Turano, Chairman Conservation Commission DATE: 19 January 1979 RE: Robert A. Watson/Earth Removal Permit Salem, Forest & Ingalls Street The Conservation Commission has reviewed its file, and additional available information, concerning the above referenced site. It is our conclusion that the referenced site is in violation of the "Wetlands Protection Act" (M.G.L. Chap.131, s.40, as amended). The earth removal at this site has been a recurring item for the Conservation Commission since 1969. Our records show that this operation has hot compl,ted1iiith the "Wetlands Protection Act" since 1972. Please note the enclosed "Request" which was precipitated by your request. Thus, it is the recommendation of the Conservation Commission that an Earth Removal Permit not be issued until such time that the alleged violation of the "Wetlands Protection Act" be clarified or rectified to the satisfaction of the Conservation Commission. Thank you for any consideration given to this recommendation.

CYR TELEPHONE 685-0950 Highway Surveyor January 16, 1979 Mr. Frank Serio, Chairman Board of Appeals 120 Main Street N. Andover, Ma P: Watson Earth Removal Permit Dear Frank: I have no objections in general to any earth removal from this area so long as there are conditions agreeing that no material will be hauled over our rural roads during any winter thawing periods or during March and April when the frost is leaving the ground. We have encountered serious damage to our rural roads in this area during the past couple of winters due to the removal of material from Lacy Street and Watsons earth removal operation on Sharpners Pond Road. Our roads in this area were not constructed to accomodate this type of constant heavy hauling and unless we control hauling during the thawing periods the road maintenance cost in this areaawill be a constant drain on the Highway Dept. budget. I hope we can work something out in this regard, not only on exist- ing earth removal permits but also special permits. I feel these per- mits have been abused and not used in the manner originally intended when they were inserted into the bylaw, and in addition the excessive amount of material that has been hauled from these special permit oper- ations. In closing I would like to comment on the fact that if all earth removal operations were operated in the manner of Mr. Reals operation on Rea Street, earth removal would not be a problem to this department. Mr. Rea has never hauled out of his pit when the described road condi- tions exist. WAC/j �Very truly yours, William A.

Watson 876 Forest Street, North Andover Earth Removal Permit On behalf of my clients, Robert A. and Jane S. Watson, we hereby request the renewal of the Earth Removal Permit on the property abutting Salem Street and the ABM site in the Town of North Andover, Massachusetts. Once again we are requesting a renewal of the permit which has been outstanding for a number of years, and we would request that the plan as presently on file by you be authorized as a plan required under Section 5, Paragraph 5.3, Subsection 2 of the North Andover Zoning By -Laws. You will also find enclosed a check in the amount of $100.00 constituting the filing fee for the permit renewal, and a statement encompassing the proposed ultimate use of the land as required under Section 5, Paragraph 5.3, Subsection 3. As the proposed ultimate use has not changed since last years submission you will find attached a copy of the ultimate land use as.submitted last year. I would however, like to inform you that the ultimate use of this land is approaching fruition as we are presently negotiating concerning this property and it may be developed in the near future. Also enclosed, you will find a complete list of current abutters and an operating schedule as required under Section 5, Paragraph 5.3, Subsection 5. If it is presently too late to advertise and have this Frank Serio, Jr., Chairman November 30, 1978 Board of Appeals Page ............ 2 Re: Robert A. and Jane S. Watson 876 Forest Street, North Andover Earth.Removal Permit matter heard for the December meeting, I would request that you have the advertisement set up and the renewal of the per- mit put on your agenda for your January meeting. If you are in need of any further materials or have any questions, please feel free to contact me at my office at any time. Thanking you in advance for your cooperation, I remain, Sincerely yours, �John'J. Willis, Jr. Attorney for Robert A. and Jane S. Watson JWJR:psw Enclosures TO: BOARD OF APPEALS RE: EARTH REMOVAL PERMIT FOR ROBERT A. WATSON OPERATING SCHEDULE Very little gravel has been removed in the past year, and the gravel that has been removed has been taken primarily from the front section of the site adjacent to the missile site road- way. As we requested and were granted a waiver of the five - acre requirement, the operation of the pit has not been such that a detailed operating schedule may be filed. The owner will be happy to explain at a view and at the meeting itself which areas have been worked and to what extent. Future operation of the gravel pit will continue as in the past with the active areas of operation as have been shown on the plans filed with the Board of Appeals in prior years. No modification of the operating areas is contemplated at this time. TO: BOARD OF APPEALS RE: EARTH REMOVAL PERMIT FOR ROBERT WATSON ULTIMATE LAND USE OF GRAVEL SITE It is the intention of the Petitioner to utilize the site in conformance with the residental zone in which the property is located. As such, it.will be necessary at some future time when the gravel operation has been terminated to apply for sub- division approval of the property establishing suitable ways and lot lines in conformance with the Town's 'zoning By -Law. It is proposed that the levelling effect of the gravel operations will make the property more amenable to development for housing. The central ponding, it is felt, will add a central focus to such a development which will be both aesthetically pleasing and beneficial to the surrounding houses to be constructed. The ways constructed and the lot lay -outs will be done in such a manner as to maximize the use of the ponds and also to pre- serve as much as possible the remaining woodlands. It is the belief of the petitioner that when this is accomplished the property will be even more of an asset to the community than it is at present.
