The plan does not include the off- site water main design in Boxford Street; however, here are some general comments for it. 1. The proposed water main in Boxford Street must be 12-inch cement lined ductile iron pipe. The proposed water main in Wellington Way can be 8-inch diameter as shown on the plans. 2. One-inch copper water stubs with curb stops must be installed in Boxford Street for all abutting lots between Brookview Drive and Wellington Way. This is a I policy the Water Department has maintained for decades. The Division of Public Works recently skipped paving this section of Boxford Street in anticipation of future water line installation. Very truly yours, �j4 Timothy J.

FROM: Gene Willis CC: Brace Thibodeau, and Tim Willett DPW; Phil Christiansen, CSI Inc. RE: Wellington Woods Subdivision review 42 - name changed from Autumn Woods I have received a Definitive PRD Plan for WELLINGTON WOODS dated June 12, 2015,by Christiansen and Sergi Inc. It appears the previous name was AUTUMN WOODS. I offer the following comments: 1. Sloped granite curbing detail, sheet 12 of 14, should change the name of intersecting street from Blue Ridge to Boxford St. Why are the limits of curbing different on the left side vs. right? 2. Sloped granite curbing is proposed for roadway entrance. Vertical curbing should be used from the intersection with Boxford St.through the radii on the proposed roadway. 3. The grade change from the FF outlet to catch basin 1 is 1' in 135' or approximately 0.007. Engineer needs to check and verify scouring velocity is adequate to keep pipe clear of sediment. 4. How much soil cover over the water main will there be through the center of cul de sac? 5. What is the purpose for the depressed cul de sac center. is there test pit data in this area? Are the soils well drained?What is the outlet for storm water runoff? It would appear a situation of standing water and mosquito breeding could develop in this area. 6. Lot 4 through 7 driveways need spot grades at their entrances to the proposed roadway to demonstrate compliance with driveway permit policy. (negative slope from roadway pavement onto driveway). 7. What is the slope of the cut slope to the right of roadway entrance? A stabilization detail should be provided. S. Proposed contours at stormwater treatment area west of roadway should be labelled. 9. Is there test pit data for stormwater treatment area? 10. Offshe water main design and details not provided 11. Deed restrictions will be required for the 10' wide drainage easements on either side of roadway. 4 t CHRIS TI NSEN & SERGI, INC ff 1111111111iX PROFESSIONAL ENGINEERS AND LAND SURVEYORS 160 SUMMER STREET,HAVERHILL,MA 01830 tel: 978-373.0310 www.csl-engr.com fax 978-372-3960 July 21 2015 Mr Gene Willis P.E. Engineer Town of North Andover 384 Osgood Street North Andover MA 01845 Dear Gene: Thank you for your timely review of the Wellington Woods Definitive Subdivision Plan. 1 would like to take this opportunity to address your comments in your Interoffice Memorandum of July 20, 2015. For ease of reference, I have reprinted your comments and my responses are printed in blue: 1. Sloped granite curbing detail,sheet 12 of 14,should change the name of intersecting street from Blue Ridge to Boxford St. Why are the limits of curbing different on the left side vs. right? The curbing detail was mistakenly added to the detail sheet while bringing in construction details to the drawing. Since Boxford Street does not have curbing and curbing is not needed for the drainage I did not see the necessity as having it pail of the design. Boxford Street has a four percent grade change across the roadway entrance. The elevation at the easterly end of the entrance is 124 and the elevation at the westerly side of the entrance is 120. The intersection grading shown on sheet 14 maintains that flow direction. 2. Sloped granite curbing is proposed for roadway entrance. Vertical curbing should be used from the intersection with Boxford St.through the radii on the proposed roadway, As noted above the curbing detail was incorrectly added to the plan, it was not part of the design intent. If you want the vertical curbing added we will do so. 3. The grade change from the FE outlet to catch basin 1 is V in 135` or approximately 0.007. Engineer needs to check and verify scouring velocity is adequate to keep pipe clear of sediment. Attached is a printout of the results of a Manning Equation calculation for an HDPE pipe. 1 used a depth of flow of only 3 inches with a Manning coefficient of 0,013 , which is rough for an HDPE pipe, and the result showed the velocity in the pipe would be 2.6 ft/sec. Velocities of 2.5 ft/sec and greater are adequate to re-suspend materials settled in a pipe. 4. Mow much soil cover over the water main will there be through the center of cul de sac?There will be 4 feet of cover through the cul-de-sac infiltration area, There will be 4 feet of cover through the cul-de-sac infiltration area. ,I i I i Apme CHRISTIANSEN & SERGI, INC PROFESSIONAL ENGINEERS AND LAND SURVEYORS 160 SUMMER STREET,HAVERHILL,MA 01830 tel: 978-373-0310 www.est-engr.com fax 978-372-3960 5. What is the purpose for the depressed cul de sac center. is there test pit data in this area? Are the soils well drained?What is the outlet for storm water runoff? It would appear a situation of standing water and mosquito breeding could develop in this area. The put-pose of the depressed area in the center of the cul-de-sac is to collect and infiltrate stormwater that drains from the inner portion of the roadway; that is from the crown to the edge of the road. We do not have any test pits in that area but the soil testing performed on the property confirms that the soils are an A soil and have rapid infiltration rates. The alternative to this design would be to eliminate the crown in the roadway around the cul-de-sac and superelevate the inside of the roadway so that all of the water flows to the outside. If that is a preferred design we can change the plan. 6. Lot 4 through 7 driveways need spot grades at their entrances to the proposed roadway to demonstrate compliance with driveway permit policy.(negative slope from roadway pavement onto driveway). I will add spot grades as requested 7. What is the slope of the cut slope to the right of roadway entrance? A stabilization detail should be provided. The slope is 2:1. The detail sheet contains a slope stabilization detail.Let me know if you need more. 8. Proposed contours at stormwater treatment area west of roadway should be labelled. I will label the contours. 9. Is there test pit data for stormwater treatment area? There isn't any test pit data. I relied on the information from the septic system testing and used a lower infiltration rate than the soils have in the drainage calculations. 10. Offsite water main design and details not provided I will add the offsite water line improvements to the plan 11.Deed restrictions will be required for the 10' wide drainage easements on either side of roadway. The clients attorney will prepare deed restrictions an provide them to you for review Very truly yours Philip Christiansen.P.E.

Included in the materials I received and reviewed were the following: • Definitive PKI). Subdivision Plan of "Wellington Woods" in North Andover MA (14 Sheets), Messina Development Co., Applicant, prepared by Christiansen & Sergi, Inc. and dated 6/23/15. ■ Stormwater Management Report for the PRD Definitive Subdivision Plan for "Wellington Way" in North Andover,MA, prepared for Messina Development by Christiansen& Sergi, Inc. and dated 6/26/15. • PRD Special Permit Application,Wellington Woods,July 2015 ■ Notice of Intent,Wellington Woods,July 2015 My primary focus in this technical review is on the overall stormwater management approach and design concepts used in the project, as well as its compliance with the Town of North Andover's PRD Subdivision Regulations, the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) Stormwater Management Standards and Regulations, and the North Andover Wetlands Bylaw. It is my understanding that a Notice of Intent (NOI) application for the project has been filed concurrently with the Conservation Commission. My review is aimed at assisting both boards in their respective reviews of the project. The project site is an approximately 18,15-acre parcel on the north side of Boxford Street. It is currently undeveloped and wooded, with drainage overland toward bordering vegetated wetland systems in the northeast corner and central portions of the site. The proposed project is a 7-lot cluster subdivision with approximately 12-acres of designated open space. As proposed, drainage from the development would be managed through a system of swales, forebays and infiltration areas. 32 Old Framingham Rd Unit 29 Sudbury MA 01776 tel 508,259,1137 Wellington Woods, Stormwater Review 2 July 29, 2015 My comments on the proposed plan are outlined below; I. In general, the proposed plan uses a low impact drainage design that largely, maintains existing drainage patterns and takes advantage of the site's permeable soils to treat and infiltrate runoff onsite. I support the requested waivers regarding pavement width and curbing on the proposed roadway, as they are consistent with the project's scale and low impact development approach. 2. The project descriptions in the Stormwater Report and the NOT indicate that the stormwater runoff on the site will be managed through a system of swales, a forebay and infiltration areas, however there is no sediment forebay identified on the plans, nor is it included in the O&M Plan, If the design intent is for the sediment forebay(s) to be incorporated into the Swale design this needs to be clearly shown on the plan and included in the long term O&M for the project. 3. The outlet fi•om proposed Catchbasin#1 would discharge roadway runoff directly toward the wetland, within the 50-ft buffer. Since this flow would be largely untreated, de minitnus calculations are needed in accordance with the DEP Stormwater Standards 1 and 4. 4. Based on the slope of the proposed roadway, the check dams in the roadside swales should be permanent structures (vs. temporary erosion control measures) and should be designed and maintained accordingly. 5. The Stormwater Report indicates that roof drainage will be handled through subsurface recharge systems located on each lot. The plans include a detail and sizing calculations for the roof recharge systems, but the locations of the systems are not shown on the plan. I also recommend a note on the plan indicating that roof drain overflows are to be directed onto pervious surfaces. 6. As indicated by NRCS soil maps and verified by the test pit data provided, the soils on the site are predominantly fine sandy loams suitable for infiltration, with the estimated seasonal high groundwater elevation (ESHGW) more than five feet below grade in the areas tested. However, the test pits conducted on the site appear to have been limited to the proposed septic system locations; no tests were conducted in the two proposed infiltration basin locations or in the (as yet unidentified) locations proposed for roof recharge. Additional soil testing will be needed in these areas prior to system installation to verify soil suitability and depth to groundwater and/or bedrock. 7. The sizing of the proposed infiltration systems and the drainage analysis is based on a design infiltration rate (8.27 inlhr) characteristic of sand. Based on the soil maps and test data, which indicate loamy sands and sandy loams, the design infiltration rate should be no more than 2.41 in/hr. Wellington ellin Woods, Stormwater Review 3 July 29, 2015 8. The drainage analysis is based on outdated (1963) TP-40 rainfall data and is not reflective of current climatology. Per the NRCS Engineering Field Handbook Chapter 2 - March 2013 Massachusetts Supplement MA-EFH2, more recent rainfall data developed by the Northeast Regional Climate Center should be used in place of TP-40 when estimating runoff and peak discharges. Table Al.1 of that document lists the 24-hr rainfall volumes for the 2, 10, 25 and 100-yr design storms in North Andover as 3.15, 4.83, 6.16 and 8.94 inches, respectively. 9. The HydroCAD analysis includes a curve number adjustment for frozen or saturated antecedent moisture conditions (AMC=4); it is unclear what the basis for this adjustment is, and I believe that the adjusted curve numbers are inappropriately skewed. 10. The surface area of the proposed infiltration ponds should be treated as impervious in the model. 11. Grade lines on the proposed infiltration basins should be labeled, and dimensions of the spillway consistent with the model should be identified. 12. The water duality calculations should be based on 1-inch of runoff in accordance with the North Andover Subdivision Regulations. It appears that this would be met by the proposed BMPs. 13. The plan shows two pairs of catchbasins in the proposed roadway in addition to those in the swales; it is my understanding that these were added to the design at the request of the Town Engineer. The proposed outlet hood should be specified on the detail sheet, and maintenance of the catchbasins should be included in the O&M Plan. 14. Stone aprons should be provided at the piped inlets to the detention/infiltration basin. 15. 1 recommend horizontal curbing on the inside edge of the proposed cul-de-sac to promote drainage and protect the pavement edge. 16. The plan should include the limit of work or of vegetation clearing on the site. 17. The Erosion & Sediment Control Plan should include measures to protect proposed infiltration areas, and to restore infiltration capacity of the BMPs that are used as sediment traps during construction. 18. As is indicated in the Stormwater Checklist, the proposed project entails the disturbance of more than one acre and will therefore require a Construction Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) and an NOI filed under the EPA Construction General Permit. The Construction SWPPP should be prepared by or Wellington Woods, Stormwater Review 4 July 29, 2015 in conjunction with the contractor selected for project construction, and the Conservation Commission and/or Planning Board should have the opportunity to review the plan prior to implementation. 19. I have the following comments on the O&M flan: ■ Short-term construction related control measures should be removed frorn the O&M Plan and included in a separate Erosion & Sediment Control Plan or Construction SWPPP. • The O&M Plan should include maintenance of the. *Kbasins and sediment forebay. _.. _._.... _" ■ The plan references maintenance of infiltration chambers in addition to the roof recharge areas; it is not clear what chambers this refers to. The proposed infiltration basins should be mowed at least twice a year to prevent woody growth. Given its location within the cul-de-sac, the upper basin may need more frequent mowing or alternative plantings. a The plan should clearly identify who will be responsible for maintaining each of the stormwater BMPs in the development over the long term. In all likelihood, individual homeowners would be responsible for maintenance of the roof infiltration systems on their own lots, Since the swales and infiltration basins are located on common lands and most of the maintenance entails mowing, consideration should be given to establishment of a Homeowners Association to maintain them even if the Town accepts the roadway and maintenance of the catchbasins, The O&M Plan should include a simple figure showing the locations of the BMPs to be maintained. I appreciate the opportunity to assist the North Andover Planning Board and Conservation Commission with the review of this project, and hope that this information is suitable for your needs. Please feel free to contact me if you or the applicants have any questions regarding the issues addressed herein. Sincerely, EGGLEMN ENVIRONMENTAL Lisa D. Eggleston, P.E.

Thanks for the quick review. I will respond by Monday or Tuesday I have no idea why the AMC was set at 4. I should have known by the size of the flows I was getting. I will adjust to 2. Good review to have picked it up. We did a test pit in the infiltration area on Tuesday July 28 and found results similar to Test Pits 5A,B,C, 6 A,B,C, 7A,B,C,and 9 A,B,C. The profile in the infiltration area marked as TP IP is A 0-10" FSL B 10-26" LS C 29-92" CS No water No mottles The elevations at the above referenced test pits range from 122-126 The perc rates in 5,6,7,an9 ranged from 2 to 4 minutes per inch. In 4 of the peres we could not maintain water in the perc hole long enough to measure. I ran a double ring infiltrometer test at test pit IP and the water droped 4 inches in 80 seconds. Which is 180 inches/hr.Not a reasonable number for design. i i i "e soil description of the C horizon in all of the above pits is sand, ranging from medium sand to coarse sand. 1 Since the bottom of the infiltration basin is at elevation 122 it will be infiltrating into the C horizon sand and I think the 8.27 in/hr is appropriate. I will specify that the area must be stripped of all top and subsoil and if fill is needed it must be a medium to course sand. If I have your concurance I will rerun the program at an AMC of 2 and an infiltration rate of 8.27in/hr, I Regards, Philip Christiansen P,E. CHRISTIANSEN &SERGI, INC.

Eggleston,PE Eggleston Environmental 32 Old Framingham Road,Unit 29 Sudbury,MA 01776 RE: Wellington Estates Stormwater Review Dear Ms. Eggleston: I have received your review comments of July 29, 2015 on the above referenced project and over the following responses. For ease in discussion, I have repeated your comments and followed my responses in blue ink, 1. In general, the proposed plan uses a low impact drainage design that largely maintains existing drainage patterns and takes advantage of the site's permeable soils to treat and infiltrate runoff onsite. I support the requested waivers regarding pavement width and curbing on the proposed roadway, as they are consistent with the project's scale and low impact development approach. No comment necessary 2. The project descriptions in the Stormwater Report and the NOI indicate that the stormwater runoff on the site will be managed through a system of swales, a forebay and infiltration areas, however there is no sediment forebay identified an the plans, nor is it included in the O&M Plan. If the design intent is for the sediment forebay(s) to be incorporated into the swale design this needs to be clearly shown on the plan and included in the long term O&M for the project. The plans have been modified to clearly mark the forebays within the swales. Profiles of the swales with check dams have been included on the detail sheets 3. The outlet from proposed Catchbasin #1 would discharge roadway runoff directly toward the wetland, within the 50-ft buffer. Since this flow would be largely untreated, de YYlininnis calculations are needed in accordance with the DEP Stormwater Standards I and 4. The outlet from CB#1 has been directed towards an infiltration basin (pond 6P). Pretreatment is provided by the catch basin, The water level in the basin never exceeds the level of the berm. There won't be any surface flow from pond 6P 4. Based on the slope of the proposed roadway, the check dams in the roadside swales should be permanent structures (vs. temporary erosion control measures) and should be designed and maintained accordingly. The check dams in the swales have been designated as permanent structures and maintenance addressed in the O&M Plan 5. The Stormwater Report indicates that roof drainage will be handled through subsurface recharge systems located on each lot. The plans include a detail and sizing calculations for the roof recharge systems, but the locations of the systems are not shown on the plan. I also recommend a note on the plan indicating that roof drain overflows are to be directed onto pervious surfaces. The design has been changed so that the roof leaders from Lots 1,2, 5 and 7 are directed to the roadway swales. The roof leaders for the house on lot 3 shall be directed to the infiltration basin on lot 3. The roof runoff on lot 4 will be delivered to the grassed basin in the rear of the lot and the roof water from Lot 6 will flow through the rear yard lawn, through 50 feet of undisturbed woodland and into the adjacent open space. 6. As indicated by NRCS soil maps and verified by the test pit data provided, the soils on the site are predominantly fine sandy loams suitable for infiltration, with the estimated seasonal high groundwater elevation (ESHGW) more than five feet below grade in the areas tested. However, the test pits conducted on the site appear to have been limited to the proposed septic system locations; no tests were conducted in the two proposed infiltration basin locations or in the (as yet unidentified) locations proposed for roof recharge. Additional soil testing will be needed in these areas prior to system installation to verify soil suitability and depth to groundwater and/or bedrock. As indicated on the plans a soil test was conducted in the infiltration area opposite station 1+00. Designated on the plan as TP IP 7. The sizing of the proposed infiltration systems and the drainage analysis is based on a design infiltration rate (8.27 in/hr) characteristic of sand. Based on the soil maps and test data, which indicate loamy sands and sandy loams, the design infiltration rate should be no more than 2.41 in/hr. Based upon the results of the test pit in the infiltration area, a double ring infiltration test and the percolation and test pits done for the septic systems at similar elevations the 8.27 inches/hour is appropriate for the sandy soils encountered. 8. The drainage analysis is based on outdated (1963) TP-40 rainfall data and is not reflective of current climatology, Per the NRCS Engineering Field Handbook Chapter 2 - March 2013 Massachusetts Supplement MA-EFH2, more recent rainfall data developed by the Northeast Regional Climate Center should be used in place of TP-40 when estimating runoff and peals discharges. Table A1.1 of that document lists the 24-hr rainfall volumes for the 2, 10, 25 and 100-yr design storms in North Andover as 3.15, 4.83, 6.16 and 8.94 inches,respectively. The drainage analysis has been changed to reflect the recommended rainfall rates 9. The HydroCAD analysis includes a curve number adjustment for frozen or saturated antecedent moisture conditions (AMC=4); it is unclear what the basis for this adjustment is, and I believe that the adjusted curve numbers are inappropriately skewed. The use of an AMC of 4 was in error and has been changes to an AMC of 2. Ii 10. The surface area of the proposed infiltration ponds should be treated as impervious in the model. The surface of the infiltration ponds has been changed to impervious as suggested. 11. Grade lines on the proposed infiltration basins should be labeled, and dimensions of the spillway consistent with the model should be identified. The plans have been changed to reflect the comment. 12, The water quality calculations should be based on 1-inch of runoff in accordance with the North Andover Subdivision Regulations. It appears that this would be met by the proposed BMPs. The calculations have been revised to provide the required one inch/square foot of impervious area. 13. The plan shows two pairs of catch basins in the proposed roadway in addition to those in the swales; it is my understanding that these were added to the design at the request of the Town Engineer. The proposed outlet hood should be specified on the detail sheet, and maintenance of the catch basins should be, included in the O&M Plan. The plans and the O&M Plan have been revised according to your comments 14. Stone aprons should be provided at the piped inlets to the detention/infiltration basin. Stone inlets to the detention pond have been added to the plan as requested 15, 1 recommend horizontal curbing on the inside edge of the proposed cul-de-sac to promote drainage and protect the pavement edge. Horizontal curbing will be added to the plan if it is acceptable to the DPW and the Planning Board 16. The plan should include the limit of work or of vegetation clearing on the site. The sedimentation control is the maximum limit of work.The area encompassed within the sedimentation control is 4.8 acres of a 17.98 acre parcel, or 26%. It is quite possible the areas within lots 3,4 and 7 will not be cleared to the limits of the haybales. Tile remainder of the lots will be cleared to the haybales.The final extent of clearing will depend upon the septic designs. 17. The Erosion & Sediment Control Plan should include measures to protect proposed infiltration areas, and to restore infiltration capacity of the BMPs that are used as sediment traps during Construction Additions have been made to the Sedimentation Control Plan to address this comment. 18, As is indicated in the Stormwater Checklist, the proposed project entails the disturbance of more than one acre and will therefore require a Construction Storrnwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) and an NOt filed under the EPA Construction General Permit. The Construction SWPPP should be prepared by or in conjunction with the contractor selected for project construction, and the Conservation Commission and/or Planning Board should have the opportunity to review the plan prior to implementation. The appropriate filing will be made with the EPA 19. 1 have the following comments on the O&M Plan: AN Short-term construction related control measures should be removed from the O&M Plan and included in a separate Erosion & Sediment Control Plan or Construction SWPPP. A specific O&M Plan for construction phase was in the original document with reference to Erosion & sediment control including frequency of inspection and inspection logs. Additional information is detailed on Page 11 of the Design plans. IN The O&M Plan should include maintenance of the catchbasins and sediment forebay. Post Construction Phase O&M has been revised to include Catch Basins and Sediment forebay. IN The plan references maintenance of infiltration chambers in addition to the roof recharge areas; it is not clear what chambers this refers to. Roof recharge areas and infiltration chambers have been removed form the desing and O&M Report IN The proposed infiltration basins should be mowed at least twice a year to prevent woody growth. Given its location within the cul-de-sac, the upper basin may need more frequent mowing or alternative plantings. A statement has been added to the Post construction O&M for mowing as required. r� The plan should.clearly identify who will be responsible for maintaining each of the stormwater BMPs in the development over the long term. In all likelihood, individual homeowners would be responsible for maintenance of the roof infiltration systems on their own lots. Since the swales and infiltration basins are located on common lands and most of the maintenance entails mowing, consideration should be given to establishment of a Homeowners Association to maintain them even if the Town accepts the roadway and maintenance of the catchbasins. Responsible parties have been identified to table 1. ■ The O&M Plan should include a simple figure showing the locations of the BMPs to be maintained. A plan has been added. I hope this response answers all of your concerns with the Stormwater Management Program for Wellington Woods. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any additional questions.

I Forth Andover Health Department Community Economic Development Division To: Christine Cheetham,Town Planner From: Michele Grant,Public Health inspector Date: August 12,2015 RR Wellington Woods Subdivision Plan Dear Ms. Cheetham, This memo is in regards to the application before the Planning Board for 602 Boxford Street, Wellington Woods Subdivision. The Health Department staff observed soils testing in January 2015, in preparation for the proposed houses to be built utilizing on site septic systems in their design plans, The results show that the locations tested could support subsurface disposal systems. The septic plans have not been received to date however, so comments regarding how these designs will fit into the landscape proposed for this subdivision cannot be made at this time. The plan submitted for comment incorporated 600 square foot leaching beds with associated grading details. The size proposed for the subsurface leaching facilities generally would support three bedroom houses. If larger homes are proposed they would likely need each footprint increased a few hundred square feet. As the subdivision will be serviced by the municipal water system,the Health Department has no comment in this regard. If you have any questions regarding this memo,please do not hesitate to contact me. �e t Regards, t� Michele Grant Public Health Inspector 1600 Osgood Street,North Andover,Massachusetts 01845 Phone 978.680.9540 Fax 978,688,0476 Web www,townolnorlhandower.com Cheetham, Kristine From: Lisa Eggleston <Iisa@egg lestonenvironmental.com> Sent: Wednesday,August 12, 2015 2:58 PM To: Phil Christiansen Cc: Cheetham, Kristine; Hughes, Jennifer Subject: Re:Wellington Estates Kristine Ft Jennifer, Just letting you know that the 8/10 revisions on this project, in conjunction with the revised Sheet 14 that Phil Christiansen emailed today, satisfactorily address my 7/29 comments on this project.

While the NACC does not have jurisdiction over much of the development, they do have concerns about the open space portion of the PRD. Often the open space is deeded to the town as open space under the care, custody and control of the Conservation Commission(Article 97 lands or under a Conservation Restriction). The NACC members commented that they would be interested in seeing a neighborhood trail developed as well as a public access point and signage if they were to be given control of the property. They would also like to see the potential vernal pools on the site certified although this will likely be done as part of the Order of Conditions issued by the NACC.

The soils suitability reports were received as required by the State code. The results of the tests show that the locations tested could support subsurface disposal systems. There is no risk to Public Health. As the subdivision will be serviced by the municipal water system,the Health Department has no comment in this regard.

As you know we provided septic testing on each lot as required. Each of the tests had adequate results so that development of each lot would not cause injury to the public health. The first three sentences of your review addressed that specific issue and would have been a sufficeint response in accordance with MGL chapter_41 Section U Approval, modification or disapproval of plan by board,_ Section 81U. When a definitive plan of a subdivision is submitted to the planning board, as provided in section eighty-one O, a copy thereof shall also be filed with the board of health or board or officer having like powers and duties. Such health board or officer shall, within forty-five days after the plan is so fled, report to the planning board in writing, approval or disapproval of said plan, and, in the event of disapproval, shall make specific findings as to which, if any, areas shown on such plan cannot be used for building sites without injury to the public health, and include such specific findings and the reasons therefor in such report, and where possible, shall make recommendations for the adjustments thereof. The following comments are what caused to Board to call for clarification The septic plans have not been received to date howener, so comments regarding how these designs will fit the landscape proposed for this subdivision cannot be made at this time. The plan submitted for coma eats incorporated 600 square foot leaching beds with associated grading details. The size proposed for the subsurface leaching facilities generally would support three bedroom homes. If larger homes are proposed they likely would need each footprint increased a few hundred square feet. The first sentence was confusing to one board member since after reading it he thought our plans were lacking because we didn't design the systems. As you are aware system designs at this point in the approval process are never done and all subdivisions approved in town are only approved on the basis of soils tests showing that septic systems are possible. It would be most helpful if that sentence did not appear in future responses to the Board. The limited review required by the Board of Health in the Subdivision review is further protected by the following declaration in 81 U When the definitive plan shows that no public or community sewer is to be installed to serve any lot thereon, approval by a board of health or officer shall not be treated as, nor deemed to be approval of a permit for the construction and use on any lot of an individual sewage system; and approval of a definitive plan for a subdivision by a board of health or officer shall not be treated as, nor deemed to be, an application for a permit to construct or use an individual sewage system on any lot contained therein. i Regarding you specific comments about the size of leaching systems shown on the plan I offer the following: A 4 bedroom system would be sized for 440 gal/day With percolation rates at 5min/inch or less the application rate for the system will be .74 gal/square foot which would yield a system size of 595 square feet. The slowest percolation rate was on lot one at 8 min/inch which would have an application rate of.66 gal/square foot requiring a 667 square foot system So a 600 square foot system on all but lot 1 would support a 4 bedroom home not be limited to a 3 bedroom home The systems shown on the plans were chambers.The number of chambers shown on each lot varied as required by the percolation testing Lot #of chambers 1 24 2 24 3 30 4 20 5 20 6 20 7 20 As you know the use of chambers allows 7.93 square feet of leach area per linear foot(we used chambers in all three lots recently approved on Boxford Street) Using that rate the square foot of leach area provided for each lot as shown on the plan is as follows Lot leach area of chambers (SF) 1 761 2 761 3 951 4 634 5 634 6 634 7 634 As you can see from the above the systems shown exceed what is required for a 4 bedroom home.We have not only accounted for 4 bedroom homes we have accounted for various percolation rates and larger homes, specifically lot3. apologize for not providing this information to you for your review but hope it will be helpful to you in revising the recommendation to the Planning Board that the project presently before the Board has adequate testing to show that septic systems can be built on the lots without a danger to the public health.

RE: 602 0oxford Wellington Woods The certification of vernal pools is acceptable to my client. It is my understanding the certification will be done by the Town with no expense to my client. Additionally,the certification of the vernal pools, since it is after the fact we have been assured the certi-fication will not impact the subdivision lots in any way. If I am incorrect in those assumptions please let me know(Jennifer). As far as the disposition of the land is concerned I think the owner has three options 1. Retain the land in the homeowners association 2.Donate to the Town 3. Donate to Natural Heritage,Essex County Green Belt or other non profit environmental groups. If the land remains in the homeowners association there won't be any trails for the public because of the liability problems. If the property is donated to the Town there are several things that need to be thought out. 1.Three of the neighbors from Duncan drive were at the meeting before last and told us they don`t want trails. They axe concerned about people wandering through the woods. If trails were to be established I think abutters need to be notified and be able to express their oppinions regarding trails. 2.Con Com members suggested parking areas off the proposed roadway for people using the trails. The slope of the roadway and the country drainage are not conducive to creation of parking areas along the roadway. When I raised this issue at Planning Board Mr. Simmons indicated that parking areas were not necessary. So I see a conflict between Con Com and Planning. 3.The trails map I sent to you does not show any trails near the site. So the trail on this property would not tie into any other trail. 4. Additional questions would be 2 i Who plans the trails? Who does the permitting of the trails with Natural Heritage? Who pays for the construction of the trails? If the property is donated to an environmental group all of the above issues become their problems. Regards, Philip Christiansen P.E. CHRISTIANSEN &SERGI, INC.

I am sensing that this topic may hold up the project. I attached the memo from the Conservation Commission because it notes their interest in having the Town-Conservation Commission own the land, as well as having a trail, parking and signage, I also understand that some neighbors of the Duncan Drive spoke up at the Conservation Commission meeting. They did not speak at the Planning Board meeting, so many of the members are unaware of their concerns. If you could provide some clarity on the matter, it might help resolve the decision making.

A proposed trail through the open space parcel would likely require a formal MESA filing (MESA Project Review Checklist) and review,and we would need additional information (e.g.,how constructed,proposed uses,location,width,surface,likely maintenance,etc.) to provide more concrete feedback. Trails can be of concern in some instances;for example,proposing to create a new trail or widen an existing trail through state-listed plant habitat. But in this case,in concept,I would not anticipate having significant rare species concerns about a minimal width,unpaved trail for passive recreation (e.g., wanting,hiking,snowshoeing,etc.). In advance of filing,you're welcome to send along conceptual plans (via email) for our review and feedback. Feel free to call or email if you have any additional questions or would like to discuss further for any reason. All the best! ...

The Planning Board was interested in trails being established at some point in the future, if feasible. John Smolak was at the hearing when this was discussed.
