Fred Saraceno, the owner, attended the meeting. A site visit took place
last Saturday. Discussion about stability of wetland crossing bridge which
has loose stones in the walls. Gravel and stones have washed down around
wetland area, at base of pipes and stones in the wing walls seem loose.
Letter from Engineer describes some deviations from original plan, which
we need to review. He should remove gravel from stream bed and NACC will
make another site visit. Bill Sousa will review the letter from Engineer.
Irene will visit the site at request of Fred Saraceno.
Yellow Maize Replacement Area -- Discussion
Dick Barret and Doug Strong have purchased Lots 13 and 16, uncertain about
Lots 14 and 15. They attended meeting as did Phil Busby who had done
some previous work in the area when owned by John Tuttle. Mr. Busby did
some work on the sewer crossing, and posted the original bond. Busby's
work violated the original plan, by doing unauthorized filling. Subsequent
firm finished crossing and initiated replication areas. Jack Lindon indicated
that since Busby's company did the violation, they should be responsible
for costs of replication area, and we will pursue the posted bond. Neve' s
As-Built of sewer is nearly done. Buddy Cyr indicated there may be problems '
with the sewer. The question was raised as to who has jurisdiction over
the sewage line and causeway. No vote taken.
Lot 2 ,AA Tucker Farm - Public Hearin - Determination
Ralph DeVito, the owner, attended the meeting. fie is requesting permission ;
to fill in his back yard. He proposes filling 10' from wetland with 2/1
slope. Jack suggested either 4: 1 slope if 10' away, or a 2: 1 slope if 25'
away. He needs to come back with a plan, also we need an extension from him.
Abutters expressed concern about the drainage in Tucker Farms area. Public
Hearing to be continued, two weeks from tonight (October 12, 1988) ;
Woodchuck Grove - Notice of Intent
This hearing was advertised but plans were not ready for review. Since

the NACC wants BSC to look for in their review. (next Friday there will
be a meeting of all involved in this project including Mike Herlihy of BSC
Group) . An abutter expressed concerns about adequacy of drainage calculations
and the fact that mitigation plans (wetland replication area) are not submitted
yet. W. Vicens motioned that we indefinitely extend the hearing on Woodchuck
