Engineering and Construction Services REF.: NHX-2010529 July 2, 2010 Secretary Ian A. Bowles Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs Massachusetts Environmental Policy Act (MEPA) Office 100 Cambridge Street, Suite 900 Boston, Massachusetts 02114 SUBJECT: Notice of Project Change, EEA No. 13806 Gasoline Station/Convenience Store with Drive Through and Proposed Office/Warehouse Building Route 125 (Osgood Street), North Andover, Massachusetts Dear Secretary Bowles: On behalf of Hera Development Company, Greenniarr Pedersen, Inc. (GPI) is pleased to submit three copies of a Notice of Project Change (NPC) for a proposed office/warehouse building located on Orchard Hill Road off of Osgood Street (Route 125) in North Andover, Massachusetts. The site currently contains a Solo gasoline station and convenience store with and vacant land behind the gasoline station. Access to the site is currently provided via an existing signalized driveway on Route 125 (a state highway). To avoid the appearance of segmentation of the development of the site, the gasoline station convenience store project went through the MEPA process in the form of an Environmental Notification Form (ENF) since there were no definite plans for the development of the vacant portion of the site at that time. The gasoline station/convenience store project received a Certificate on the ENF on June 23, 2006. As currently proposed, the project consists of the construction of an office/warehouse building on the vacant portion of the site, The proposed gross area of the building is 16,527 square feet, consisting of 12,272 square feet of warehouse space, 4,127 square feet of mezzanine office space, and 128 square feet of common space, Site access and egress for the office/warehouse building is proposed to be provided via two new driveways on Orchard Hill Road (a local roadway) with no cross connection to the gasoline station portion of the site and no direct access to Route 125 due to topographical site constraints. Since the site abuts Route 125, Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) will need to review the project information to ensure that the Highway Access Permit for the site will not need to be amended. Since the proposed office/warehouse building will increase the average daily traffic generated by the previously approved development by approximately 4.3 percent, the preparation of the enclosed NPC is required. The NPC will be circulated to those who received or commented on the ENF for the gasoline station/convenience store project. As documented in the NPC and enclosed materials, the proposed office/warehouse building and approved gasoline station/convenience store project do not exceed any Enviromnental Impact Report (EIR) thresholds for further MEPA review. We therefore respectfully request a determination that the project change is insignificant in terns of its environmental consequences and that no further MEPA review is required. 61 Spit Brook Road, Suite 110, Nashua, NH 03060 Tel:(603)891-2213 Fax: (603)891-6449 www.gpinet.com GPI Mr. Ian A.

If the change will involve modification of any previously issued Section 61 Finding, include a proposed modification of the Section 61 Finding (or it will be required in a Supplemental EIR). Previously Reviewed Proiect In May 2006, an Environmental Notification Form (ENF) was filed with the Executive Office of Environmental Affairs (EEA) for the redevelopment of a parcel of land located on the northeast corner of the intersection of Route 125 (Osgood Street) and Orchard Hill Road in North Andover, Massachusetts. The site is bound by Route 125 and Osgood Landing (formerly known as the Lucent Technologies' Merrimack Valley Works facility) to the west, Orchard Hill Road to the south, and undeveloped land to the north and east. The site previously contained two vacant single-family residences. The project consisted of razing the existing structures and constructing a 3,791 square foot convenience store that includes a donut shop with a drive- through window, and a gasoline fueling facility with 10 vehicle fueling positions on the western portion of the site, as shown on the existing conditions plan. Although the project was reviewed and approved for a 3,800 square foot convenience store, a smaller store was constructed. At that time, there were no plans to develop the remaining portion of the site. Access to the site is provided from Route 125 via one full-accesslegress driveway, which forms the fourth leg to the existing signalized intersection of Route 125 and the former Lucent Technologies' south driveway. The gasoline station/convenience store project by itself did not trip any MEPA review thresholds. Based on a conversation with the MEPA Office and to avoid the appearance of segmentation of the development of the site, an ENF was filed for the gasoline station/convenience store project to act as a placeholder for the remainder of the site. -3- Proposed Project The site currently contains an existing Solo gasoline station and a 3,791 square foot convenience store with access and egress provided at a signalized intersection on Route 125 and vacant land behind the gasoline station. The proposed project consists of the construction of an off ice/ware house building on the vacant portion of the site. The proposed gross floor area of the new building is 16,527 square feet consisting of 12,272 square feet of warehouse/storage space, 4,127 square feet of mezzanine office space, and 128 square feet of common space. The building is proposed to be a multi-tenant facility with 28 parking spaces. Site access and egress for the new building is proposed to be provided via two new driveways on Orchard Hill Road with no cross connection to the gasoline station/convenience store portion of the site due to topographical site constraints. See the attached site plan. As documented in this NPC and attached materials, the proposed project does not exceed any thresholds for further MEPA review. Traffic The projects consist of constructing a new 16,527 square foot off ice/warehouse building. The project previously reviewed by MEPA projected the generation of 1,800 vehicles per day (vpd) on a weekday. Based on data contained within the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) publication Trip Generation, Eighth Edition, the proposed project is anticipated to result in a net increase in average daily traffic of 78 vpd over the previous MEPA review, which is an increase of less than 5 percent over previous projections. The new building therefore represents an insignificant change in traffic from the previously approved development and will not change the conclusions of the previous traffic study (submitted with the May 2006 ENF) reviewed by EEA during the approval process for the previously approved development. Additionally, the enclosed Trip-Generation and Project Impact letter demonstrates that the anticipated traffic volumes can be accommodated on the adjacent roadways. To ensure the safe and efficient flow of traffic to and from the site, any proposed plantings, vegetation, landscaping, and signing along the site frontage should be kept low to the ground (no more than 3.0 feet above street level) or set back sufficiently from the edge of the roadways so as not to inhibit the available sight lines. The proponent is committed to working with the Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) Highway Division's District Office during the permit process to address Transportation Demand Management (TDM) measures and other transportation-related matters. Water The proposed project is expected to generate an approximate 570 gallons per day (gpd) increase in water usage than the original project, totaling a projected 1,245 gpd usage for the entire site. This new total water usage amount does not meet or exceed any review thresholds. The water usage calculations are based on the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) State Environmental Code, Title 5, Sewage Flow Design Criteria. -4- 1'I Wastewater The proposed project is projected to result in the generation of a net increase of 570 gpd of wastewater above that projected under the previously reviewed project, totaling 1,245 gpd generated for the entire site. This new total wastewater usage amount does not meet or exceed any review thresholds. The wastewater usage calculations are based on the DEP State Environmental Code, Title 5, Sewage Flow Design Criteria. Drainage & Stormwater Management The drainage and stormwater management system will be constructed in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Town of North Andover Conservation Commission and Planning Department. The system has also been designed in accordance with DEP's Stormwater Management Policy as codified in the State Wetlands Protection Regulations, and provides a decrease in post-development runoff rates for all storm events by utilizing a series of best management practices. Best management practices include but are not limited to street sweeping, deep sump, hooded catch basins, a Stormceptor treatment device, underground pipe and stone infiltration system, and an extensive Operation & Maintenance program. The proponent is committed to working with the MassDOT Highway Division's District Office during the permit process to address any stormwater issues. The proponent will also seek coverage under the US EPA NPDES Stormwater General Permit for Construction Sites and implement a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan for the site.

PRITCHARD SECfiETARY June 23, 2006 CERTIFICATE OF THE SECRETARY OF ENVIRONMENTAL AFFAIRS ON THE ENVIRONMENTAL NOTIFICATION FORM PROJECT NAME Proposed Gas Station/Convenience Store with Drive-Through PROJECT MUNICIPALITY North Andover PROJECT WATERSHED Merrimack EOEA NUMBER 13806 PROJECT PROPONENT 1503 Osgood Street LLC DATE NOTICED IN MONITOR May 24, 2006 Pursuant to the Massachusetts Environmental Policy Act (G. L. c. 30, ss. 61-62H) and Section 11.06 of the MEP.A, regulations (301 CMR 1 I.00), 1 hereby determine that this project does not require the preparation of an Environmental Impact Report (EIR). The project consists of construction of a gasoline station with ten fueling positions, a 3,800 square foot (sf) convenience store with a donut.shop and drive-through window, and thirty parking-spaces. The project also involves demolition of two existing houses. The project site is approximately 6.1 acres and includes an intermittent stream and associated bordering vegetated wetlands. According to die Environmental Notification Form (ENF), water use is estimated at 675 gallons per day (gpd) and will be provided through connections to the municipal system. An on- site septic system is proposed to handle wastewater flows, which are estimated at 675 gpd. Traffic impacts associated with,.the project are estimated at 1,800 vehicle trips on an average weekday. The proposed project will result in alteration of approximately 0.15 acres of land (including approximately 0.13 acres of new impervious area). The project as proposed in the ENF is slightly below MEPA review thresholds for traffic. However, the proponent is considering additional development on the site in the future, which could result itu a project at Bull build-out that meets or exceeds MEPA review thresholds. As noted in the ENF, the proponent intends to submit a Notice of Project Change once plans have EOEA# 13806 ENF Certificate June 23, 2006 been developed for the eastern portion of the site. Based on information obtained during the :MEPA site visit, it appears that significant portion of the site will remain undeveloped due to the existing wetlands resources: The project is undergoing MEPA review pursuant to Section 11.03(6)(b)13 because it may result in generation of 2,000 or more average daily trips on roadways providing access to•a single location. The project tequires a State Highway Access Permit from the ssHighway Department(MHD) for access onto Route 125. The project also requires an Order of Conditions from the North Andover Conservation Commission for work in the wetlands buffer zone (arid, on appeal only, a Superseding Order from the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP)). The proponent is not seeking financial assistance from the Commonwealth. Therefore, MEPA.jurisdiction applies to those aspects of the,project.within the-subject matter of required . state permits with-the potential to cause damage 16 the environment. 1n this case,MEPA jurisdiction extends to traffic,.wetlands, land, stonnwater and drainage. Traffic The project site has frontage on Osgood Street (Route 125,Northbound). Proposed access to the site is from a driveway on Route 125 which will form the fourth;leg of an existing signalized intersection(Route 125 and.the former Lucent Technologies' south driveway). Traffic impacts for the project are estimated at 1,900 vehicle trips on an average'weekday. The ENF included a limited. traffic study that generally conforms to the'EOEA/EOT Guidelines for Traffic Impact Assessments. The Executive Office of Transportation (EOT)has determined that the proposed project will.not have.a%negative impact on the state;highway, However;the proponent will be required, as part of the lV1HD permit process,to make`all . necessary,changes acid updates to signal equipment to accommodate site traffic; and #o provide adequate pedestrian and Bicycle facilities: The proponent should also make evoryeffort to maximize retention and infiltration of:stormwAter ran-off on�site and,avoid connection to the state highway drainage system. The proponent should consult with the MHD District Office during the permit process to address stormwater issues,traffic signal improvements, and Transportation.Demand Management (TDM) measures; Wetlands, Stormwater Management and Construction Activities As further detailed in the ENF, the proposed stormwater system consists of a series of deep sump,hooded catch basins connecting to manholes and/or stormceptor treatment systems. Three stormceptor systems are proposed. Stormwater collected through the closed drainage system will discharge into two separate underground detention systems, and then to grass-lined conveyance channels and level spreaders. All roof run-off from the gas station canopy and convenience store will discharge into an underground infiltration system. As noted in the ENF, the project is being designed to meet DEP Stormwater Management Policy Standards for Total ,Suspended Solids (TSS), groundwater recharge, operation and maintenance, and other standards. The proponent should ensure that the proposed project will be designed to meet the DEP Stormwater Management Policy Standard for an Area of Higher Pollutant Load. 2 EOEA# 13806 ENF Certificate June 23, 2006 The proponent should ensure that appropriate erosion and sedimentation controls are implemented to avoid and minimize adverse impacts to wetlands and surface waters during construction activities. The proponent should also ensure that appropriate measures are implemented to avoid and minimize dust,noise,odor, traffic, and nuisance conditions associated With construction activities. Sustainable Design I encourage the proponent to require Leadership in Environmental Design (LEED) Certification-for new construction. The incorporation of high performance/green building elements in project design will help reduce the environmental footprint of the final project in terms of energy and water consumption, ambient and indoor air quality, land alteration, and resource consumption. Other Sustainable design measures,which can reduce project development and long-terra operational costs.,'may include: • water conservation and reuse of wastewater and stormwater; • recycling and reuse of construction and demolition (C&D)materials; • ecological landscaping; _ • use of Low Impact Development(LID)te6liniques (the proponent may fund the following web sites useful -www.mass.gov/envir/lid am&www.lid-stormwatef.net); • optimization of natural day lighting,passive solar gain, and natural cooling; • use of energy efficient Heating, Ventilation, and.Air Conditioning(HVAC) and lighting systems, appliances and other equipment,and use of solar preheating of makeup air; • favoring building supplies and materials,that.are non toxic, made from recycled materials, and made with low enlbodied*,energy; • provision of easily accessible and user-friendly recycling system infrastructure. I have determined that the ENF has sufficiently defined the nature and general elements of the project and proposed measures to avoid and minimize environmental impacts. I am satisfied that any remaining issues can be adequately addressed during the state and local permitting and review process. The proposed project, as described in the ENF, requires no further review under MEPA. I remind The proponent that any development of the remainder of the project site will require a Notice of Project Change (NPC) in accordance with Section 11.10 of the MEPA regulations.

Engineering and Construction Services REF.: NHX-2010529 July 2, 2010 Mr.Nicholas Hera, Jr. Hera Development Company 470 Washington Street Brighton, Massachusetts 02135 SUBJECT: Proposed Contractor's Building Orchard Hill Road North Andover, Massachusetts Dear Mr. Hera: Greennian Pedemen, Ine. (GPI) has prepared this letter related to expected trip-generation estimates and project impacts for .the proposed development to be located on Orchard Hill Road in North Andover, Massachusetts. The site currently contains a Solo gasoline station and convenience store with access and egress provided at a signalized intersection on Osgood Street (Route 125) and vacant land behind the gasoline station. Based on the site plan provided by Hendren Design Associates, the project consists of the construction of a contractor's building on the vacant portion of the site. The proposed gross area of the building is 16,527 square feet consisting of 12,272 square feet of warehouse space, 4,127 square feet of mezzanine office space, and 128 square feet of common space. The building is proposed to be a multi- tenant facility with 28 striped parking spaces. Site access and egress for the contractor's building is proposed to be provided via two new driveways on Orchard Hill Road with no cross connection to the gasoline station portion of the site. This letter has been prepared to evaluate the trip-generation and project impacts associated with the proposed contractor's building development, Trip-Generation Traffic to be generated by the proposed contractor's building was forecast using the trip rates contained in the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation? report.' This particular land use is not contained within the ITE Trip Generation report. To provide a trip-generation comparison, data were researched assuming the proposed project contains a 12,272 square foot mini-warehouse for the warehouse component and 4,255 square feet of mezzanine office space, which also includes the common space, versus 16,527 square feet of office space. The trip-generation comparison is summarized in Table 1. All trip-generation data are attached to this letter. t Trip Generation,Eight Edition;Institute of Transportation.Engineers;Washington,DC;2008, 61 Spit Brook Road, Suite 110, Nashua, NH 03060 Tel; (603)891-2213 Fax:(603)891-6449 www.gpinet.com GPI Mr. Nicholas Hera, Jr. July 2, 2010 Page 2 of 5 Table 1 TRIP-GENERATION SUMMARY Proposed Proposed Proposed Time Period/Direction Warehouse Space' Office Space b Total Trips Office Space' Trips Used Weekday Daily 30 48 78 182 182 Weekday AM Peak Hour: Enter 1 6 7 23 23 Exit 1 1 2 3 3 Total 2 7 9 26 26 Weekday PM Peak Hour: Enter 2 1 3 4 4 Exit 1 5 6 21 21 Total 3 6 9 25 25 Saturday Daily 28 10 38 40 40 Saturday Midday Peak Hour: Enter 3 1 4 4 4 Exit 2 1 3 3 3 Total 5 2 7 7 7 '1TE Land Use Code 151 (Mini-Warehouse)for 12,272 s£ b1TE Land Use Code 7I0(General Office Building)for 4,255sf. 1TE Land Use Code 710(General Office Building)for 16,527 sf. It is expected that the contractor's building will generate low peak-hour traffic volumes as shown by the warehouse and office space estimate since the warehouse storage space will be used by the tenants of the proposed mezzanine office component of the project. Therefore, the new traffic to the study area for the warehouse space component is expected to be negligible. For analysis purposes,.although the full office building alternative will overestimate the project's impacts, it was used to provide a more conservative (worse case) analysis scenario. The proposed site, which is located within the CDD3 zoning district, allows for other by-right uses to be constructed on the site such as retail space and restaurants. A trip-generation comparison between a potential retail project, a potential restaurant project, and the currently proposed contractor's building project is provided in Table 2, I0519 Trip-Generation&LDS Letter 070210- MEPA.doc GPI Mr. Nicholas Hera, Jr. July 2, 2010 Page 3 of 5 Table 2 TRIP-GENERATION COMPARISON Difference in Trips__ Potential Potential Proposed Proposed Proposed vs. Time Period/Direction Retail Space' Restaurant b Development° vs.Retail a Restaurant' Weekday Daily 732 1,862 182 (550) (1,680) Weekday AM Peak Hour: Enter 7 68 23 16 (45) Exit 5 46 3 Total 12 114 26 14 (88) Weekday PM Peak Hour: Enter 27 35 4 (23) (31) Exit 34 33 21 3 12 Total 61 68 25 (36) (43) Saturday Daily 694 1,810 40 (654) (1,770) Saturday Midday Peak Hour; Enter 35 70 4 (31) (66) Exit 33 72 3 121 (69) Total 68 142 7 (61) (135) s ITE Land Use Code 814(Specialty Retail)for 16,527 sf. °1TE,Land Use Code 933(Fast-Food Restaurant without Drive-Througli window)for 2,600 sf. `From Table 1. dProposed Development minus Potential Retail Space. `Proposed Development minus Potential Restaurant. As shown in Table 2, the proposed contractor's building development is expected to generate significantly less traffic than a restaurant development on a weekday, a Saturday, and the weekday AM, weekday PM, and Saturday midday peak hours. The proposed contractor's building development is also expected' to generate less traffic than a retail development on a weekday and a Saturday. When compared to a retail development of the same size, the proposed project is expected to generate slightly more trips during the weekday AM peak hour (1 vehicle every 4 minutes) and significantly less trips during the weekday PM and Saturday midday peak hours. 10529 Dip-Generadon&LOS Letter 070210- MEPA.doc GPI Mr..Nicholas Hera, Jr. July 2, 2010 Page 4 of 5 Project Impacts Based on discussions with the North Andover Town Planner, 2010 Baseline traffic conditions at the Osgood Street and Orchard Hill Road intersection were obtained from the Traffic hnpact and Access Study prepared for the Solo gasoline station and convenience store which currently occupies the western portion of the site, z Having estimated the project-generated vehicle trips (Table 1), the next step in determining the project's impacts is to establish the distribution of project traffic and assign these trips to the local roadway network. The distribution of proposed site traffic on the area roadways is based on existing travel patterns and expected travel routes to the site. Accordingly, approximately 50 percent of the site traffic is expected to and from the north on Osgood Street and 50 percent to and from the south on Osgood Street. Level-of-service analyses were conducted at the Osgood Street and Orchard Hill Road intersection under 2010 Baseline and 2010 Build conditions during the weekday AM, weekday PM, and Saturday midday peak hours. The capacity and queue analysis methodology is based on the concepts and procedures in the Ilighway Capacity Manual (HCM) and is described in an attachment to this letter.3 The queue analysis methodology for unsignalized intersections is based on the concepts and procedures described in the HCM. The 95tt'percentile queue represents the length of queue of the critical movements that are not expected to be exceeded 95 percent of the time during the analysis period (typically one hour). hi this case, the queue length is a function of the capacity of the movement and the movement's degree of saturation. All analysis worksheets are attached to this letter. As shown in the attached capacity analysis worksheets under 2010 Baseline and 2010 Build traffic-. volume conditions, vehicular turns onto Orchard Hill Road from Osgood Street are expected to operate at LOS A during all three critical peak hours investigated. The Orchard Hill Road right-turn movements onto Osgood Street are expected to operate at LOS C or better during all three peak hours studied. Left-turning movements from Orchard Hill Road are expected to operate at LOS D during the weekday AM peak hour, LOS F during the weekday PM peak hour, and LOS C during the Saturday midday peak hour. Maximum queues on Orchard Hill Road are not expected to exceed five vehicles during the peak hours. It should be noted that operations may be better than as modeled due to the gaps and platooning in the Osgood Street southbound traffic stream that are created by the traffic signal located approximately 250 feet north of the intersection. The gaps in the traffic stream provide additional opportunities for vehicles to turn out of Orchard Hill onto Osgood Street. 2 Traffic Impact and Access Study; Proposed Gasoline .Station/Convenience Store with Drive-Through; North Andover; Massachusetts; Greenman-Pedersen,Inc.;October 2005. 3 Highway Capacity Manual 2000;Transportation Research Board;Washington,D.C.;2000. 10629 Trip-Generation&LOS Lener 070210- MEPA.doc GPI Mr. Nicholas Hera, Jr. July 2, 2010 Page 5 of 5 Summary In summary, the proposed development is expected to have minimal impacts on the Osgood Street and Orchard Hill Road intersection with an expected increase in traffic of approximately 1 additional vehicle every 2 to 8 minutes during the critical peak hours. These impacts assume a conservative (worse case) scenario that 100 percent of the building is occupied as an office use (the higher generator), when in actuality only 26 percent is designated as office space and the remaining 74 percent is designated as warehouse space. Using the conservative (worse case) methodology, these impacts represent an increase in queue length of less than 1 vehicle on the Osgood Street southbound approach and less than 2 vehicles on the Orchard Hill Road approach. In addition, volume-to-capacity ratios on all movements at the intersection are expected to be below 1.00, indicating that capacity will remain after the proposed development is constructed and occupied.

Greenman-Pedersen, Inc. 933-SF.xls PROPOSED CONTRACTOR'S BUILDING North Andover,Massachusetts CAPACITY ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY PROPOSED CONTRACTOR'S BUILDING North Andover,Massachusetts CAPACITY ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY A primary result of capacity analysis is the assignment of levels of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions. The capacity analysis methodology is based on the concepts and procedures in the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM).4 The concept of level of service (LOS) is defined as a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and their perception by motorists and/or passengers. A level-of-service definition provides an index to quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed, travel time, freedom to maneuver, traffic interruptions, comfort, convenience, and safety. Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility. They are given letter designations from A to F, with LOS A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F the worst. Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it, such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service, depending on the time of day, day of week, or period of year. A description of the operating condition under each level of service is provided below: • LOSA describes conditions with little to no delay to motorists. • LOS.B represents a desirable level with relatively low delay to motorists. • LOS C describes conditions with average delays to motorists. • LOS D describes operations where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable. Delays are still within an acceptable range. • LOSE represents operating conditions with high delay values. This level is considered by many agencies to be the limit of acceptable delay, • LOS F is considered to be unacceptable to most drivers with high delay values that often occur, when arrival flow rates exceed the capacity of the intersection. Levels of service for unsignalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the HCM. The procedure accounts for lane configuration on both the minor and major street approaches, conflicting traffic stream volumes, and the type of intersection control (STOP, YIELD, or all-way STOP control). The definition of level of service for unsignalized intersections is a function of average control delay. Control delay includes initial deceleration 4 Highway Capacity Manual 2000,Transportation Research Board;Washington,D.C.;2000. PROPOSED CONTRACTOR'S BUILDING North Andover,Massachusetts delay, queue move-up time, stopped delay, and final acceleration delay. The level-of-service criteria for unsignalized intersections are shown in Table A-1. Table A-1 LEVEL-Or-SERVICE CRITERIA FOR INTERSECTIONS Unsignalized Intersection Criteria Average Control Delay Level of Service (Seconds per Vehicle) A <i0 B >10 and<_15 C >15 and:M D >25 and<35 E >35 and:550 F >50 Source; Highway Capacity Manual 2000,Transportation Research Board;Washington,D.C.;2000, Page 17-2, For unsignalized intersections, this delay criterion may be applied in assigning level-of-service designations to individual lane groups or to individual intersection approaches.
