Powers Deputy Gtneral Counsel Department of Environmental Ouality Engineering 100 Cambridge Street - Room 1901 Boston, Massachusetts 02202 RE: Ouail Run, North Andover - Request for Determination Dear Mr. Powers: I wish to thank you for your proirpt reply (April 20, 1979) to P�v letter (April 12, 1979) regarding the above referenced matter. Since that time the North Andover Conservation Commission has considered the matter further and discussed it with Mr. Gregor I flcGregor. This has resulted in the Coninission requesting that I write to you again to communicate at least two (2) points which I failed to note or emphasize in my.earlier letter. The first point is that while it is true that there is no work proposed within areas subject to the Wetlands Protection Act, it is povposed to create a 11pondinq area" on site in order to attenuate the increased peak rate of surface runoff,caused by thp less frequent storm events, leaving the site. This aspect, as proposed, would cause a floodinn condition to be created on site which does not exist at the present time. in addition there still exists an increase in the volume of surface water rundff from the site as I outlined in my earlier letter. The second point is that the Commission wished to eRphasize that the pro- posed connection of this new drainage system will be a direct connection to wetland areas located athhhe discharqe point of the tQVn drainaqe approximately . If the drainage were to travel in natural ways we believe 2000 feet "downgipe that there may e an unwarranted extension of the concept of "alter", but since the water travels in a man-made system we believe this altering comes under the definition of "alter" contained in the Regulations. :1 TO: Mr, Powers FRO7,1: H.A. Cons. Comm. RE: Quail Run DATE: 5/23/79 At this time the North Andover Conservation Commission has Issued a deter- mination which states that if the applicant takes such rwasures(Abich will prevent the altering of the drainage and flovi tharacteristics (flow rate and volume) leaving the site a Notice of Intent will not be required. If these measures are not Implemented then a Notice of Intent will be required based on the North Andover Conseraation Commission's definition of the word "alter". Ile have also supplied the applicant with specifications on havi this requesteday be satisfied. Thus the North Andover Conservation Commission wishes to request that you consider the additional information I have outlined above and inforn. us if this information alters the opinion expressed in your letter of April 20, 1979.

Town Counsel OFFICE OF TOWN COUNSEL ' 160 PLEASANT STREET TOWN OF NORTH ANDOVER, MASSACHUSETTS 01845 North Andover Town Hall North Andover, Gentlemen: April 24, Conservation Commission MA 01845 Ri�': Quail Run.-' North Andover The authority that the North Andover Conservation Commission has to regulate comes specifically from the statutes, namely Chapter 131, Section 40. This statute gives you jurisdiction over a development only in a "wetland area". According to your letter of April 12, you indicate that the subdivision in question is not within the "wetland area". It necessarily follows there- fore, that you have no further jurisdiction over this subdivision. qE 685-3551 You seem to have assumed a position that you have jurisdiction over flooding. The only jurisdiction you have over flooding is where as spelled out in the statute.. a person attempts to Itemove, fill, dredge ..... o..* .... any land subject to tidal action, coastal storm flowage, or flooding" .......... In the instance of Quail Run, there appears to be no area subject to flooding. That is another reason that you gain no further jurisdiction over this development. Now with respect to the omission of the ultimate drainage onto land of other persons, you might gain jurisdiction in that area if the drainage to be installed again goes into the jurisdiction area that is granted you by the statute, namely "the alteration of wetland". In the description that you give me regarding Quail Run, it would appear that the area of the Trustees of Reservations to be affected will only be affected by the disposition of town drainage onto their land. It is my understanding from the Highway Surveyor that he intends to obtain an easement from the Trustees of Reservations to particularly define the area into which the drainage is to be deposited. You are of course aware that even a municipal department must North Andover Conservation Commission April 24, 1979 Page ......... 2 Re: Quail Run, North.Andover comply with the provisions of the "Wetland -s Act". I would however suggest that in the spirit of cooper- ation and in light of the need of as little interference as possible where the Highway Surveyor is concerned in his attempt to solve serious drainage problems in this communi- ty, your Board should make every effort to cooperate. The formalities for obtaining permission to enter wetlands and the limitations that you impose upon such development, should be minimal. V ry truly yours, h J W n J.

D., Chairman North Andover Conservation Commission Town offices husetts 01845 North Andover, Massac Dear Mr. Turano: I have received your letter to me of April 12, 1979 concern- ing Quail Run in North Andover - Request for Determination. The situation you outline is certainly a difficult one. However, believe that the answer from the point of view of the Wetlands Protection Act is clear. As I understand your description, there are no wetland areas within the site itself, no work i . s proposed to be done within 100 feet of any wetland or body of water, and the site is not subject iew is that the work is not to flooding. In that situation my v To hold otherwise would be within the jurisdiction of the Act. to expand the concept of "Alter" far beyond what the Department� feels is the appropriate interpretation of that term. Since nearly every project changes drainage'patterns and discharges water that will eventually find its way to a stream or wetland, such an in- terpretation,taken literally, would bring nearly every project in the Commonwealth within the jurisdiction of the Act. That inter- pretation would also make.administration of the Act extremely difficult for every Conservation Commission ....-Tbe _Department does not believe that the Legislature ever intended or contemplated such a result. All of this is not to say that the problem you identified is not real. I would suggest, that it is within the authority of the Planning Board. in granting subdivision approval, to consider run- off effects. An alternative would for the -Town to re-examine and Or ' perhaps change the Town drainage. pe�hap!�- the Trustees of nt with -the Applicant here. Reservations can work out an agreeme In any event, however, a project must meet the initial threshold test of being within the jurisdiction of the Wetlands Protection Act before a Conservation Commission can look at the consequences of the work, require a Notice of Intent, or take any other steps under the authority of the Act. 4 -6 i - 2 - I hope that you find this useful. If you would like to discuss the matter further, please feel free to call me or write to me again. TBP/em cc: James Colman William St. Hilaire Sincerely, U'nW4 V. Pe")Z�4s Thomas B.
