Comment: Sewer lines shall be PVC and not HDPE, as shown on the plan, and shall be installed
per DPW Specifications.
The plans will be revised to show the correct sewer pipe type of PVC, per DPW specifications.
Comment: Old water and sewer lines are to be abandoned at the Town's main lines. This will
require a MassDOT Street Opening Permit and Town Street Opening Permit.
The plans will be revised to note that water and sewer pipes are to be abandoned at the Town's main
lines where they will not be reused by this project. The proper permits will be obtained prior to
construction.
Comment: New water line connections shall be live taps, not cut-in connections.
The plans will be revised to note the proper live tap connection type.
Comment: A sewer mitigation fee will apply based on the design flow for each new building.
A draft sewer mitigation fee calculation has been provided for review.

Comment: Utility Plan [C601] shows fire service connections to both proposed buildings to be on
sides opposite where existing hydrants are located.Will additional hydrants be installed In
locations nearer to proposed fire service connections? If not, FD requests fire service
connections be moved to locations that provide FD with access to supplement sprinkler systems
wt greater ease and efficiency.
The project team will review fire service connection locations as the design progresses and follow up to
confirm final locations relative to existing hydrants or proposed hydrants, if required.
We trust the above is sufficient for your needs at this time. Should you have any questions or require
additional information, please do not hesitate to contact us at(617) 849-8040.
Sincerely,
