Findings
Project Site Location & Current Conditions:
The project locus governed by this Order of Conditions is centered around/within a -225 linear
foot segment of intermittent stream channel that is located at the southerly end of Lawrence
Municipal Airport (LMA) near the terminal end of Runway 5 and associated runway safety
area. The subject stream segment is located on LMA property, sandwiched between the toe of
historic fill slope and associated plateau that supports Runway 5 and the dead-end streets of
residential neighborhoods on Grosvenor Avenue and Poor Street. Current conditions of the
stream segment and surrounding areas consist of wooded bordering vegetated wetland, an
intermittent stream channel, fill side slopes, residential properties and airport outparcel
containing additional BVW. At the upper section of the subject stream segment a concrete
headwall and flared end rip-rapped level spreader discharges flow from a 24" RCP that receives
stormwater flow from upper sections of the Airport property.
Jurisdictional Resource Areas:
The NACC agrees with the delineation of the following wetland resource areas as reviewed
in the field by the Conservation Administrator and reflected on the approved plan. The
applicant has not attempted to overcome the presumption of significance of these resource
areas to the identified interests in the Act and Bylaw.
a. Inland Bank to Intermittent Stream:
i. Flag Series 131 - B21, B32 - B35; BlA - B21A; B32A - B35A
b. Bordering Vegetated Wetland (BVW):
i. Flag Series W1 @ B20A; W30 @ 132-133; W31 @ 135-137; W32 @ 1313-1314
c. 100-Foot Buffer Zone to BVW & Inland Bank
d. The project locus does not lie within NHESP Priority Habitat or within 100 feet of
vernal pools
e. The project locus does not occur within the 100-year floodplain
f. The project locus does not occur within 200-Foot Riverfront Area

Notice of Intent DEP File #242-1876 Procedural History:
The primary catalyst for this Notice of Intent originated from catastrophic flooding events
experienced by the downstream abutting property at 27 Charles Street. Since early 2021, 27
Charles Street has been experiencing significant, property-damaging flooding from stormwater
flowing down the hillside that receives runoff from the Lawrence Municipal Airport (LMA) as
well as neighborhoods upstream. Based on a February 18, 2022 site inspection, two distinct

Page 1 of 17
Lawrence Municipal Airport DEP FILE #242 - 1876
areas along the unaltered section of the Airport stream were identified where flows had jumped
the banks and headed in a southwest direction. These sections of bank are low profile and abut
up against the chain link fence on Airport property. In February of 2022, this issue was brought
to the NACC's attention. Through discussion and consideration with LMA and 27 Charles
Street representatives, as an immediate stopgap measure, the NACC issued a "friendly"
Enforcement Order (EO) to allow the LMA to install staked coir logs or hay bales along these
areas (-120 feet) to keep water within the stream banks while a more permanent solution is
developed for formal permitting. The EO was later amended to allow additional coir log to be
installed within the BVW upstream of the 24" RCP outlet to help better direct flows from the
wetland into the stream channel.
The EO required monitoring of these coir logs after certain rain events to ensure their efficacy
while the LMA developed plans and prepared the required Notice of Intent (NOI). Over 43
monitoring reports have been received from Stantec to date, which report that the coir logs are
performing well in helping to contain flows within the stream channel at the breach points and
directing flows into the stream within the BVW. These monitoring events further assisted in
understanding the stormwater flow dynamics in this area and informed the project design,
which showed that along with LMA stream breaches, neighborhood "self-management" of
stormwater runoff along with some Town street drainage contribute to the flooding problem.
"Note: This Enforcement Order shall remain in effect until such time that the work governed
under this Order of Conditions commences.
On September 28, 2023, Stantec Consulting Services, Inc. submitted a NOI on behalf of LMA.
The NACC held the public hearing at its October 11, 2023, April 10, 2024, May 22, 2024 and June
12, 2024 meetings. At its October 11th meeting, the NACC voted to engage a 3rd party engineer
to perform a peer review of the following scope:
1. Review the NOI and associated attachments, in particular with respect to its
compliance with the Massachusetts Stormwater Standards and North Andover's
Stormwater Bylaw/Regulations.
a. Evaluate the applicant's hydrodynamic analysis particularly with the
appropriateness and accuracy of:
i. Assignment of watershed(s) and contributory area(s);
ii. Use of analytical storm events, including rain intensity, duration, and
recurrence interval;
iii. Use of valid hydrodynamic principles for Time to Concentration, Slope,
Cover, etc.;
iv. Use of hydraulic model;
v. Interpretation of results for flow expressed as cfs and volume;
vi. Use of appropriate routing model to express diverted flow through the
30"pipe, and through the modified streambed;
vii. Interpretation of the analytical results that demonstrate that the
modified stream will contain and convey all flow, without overtopping,
under the regulatory storm events.
2. Review various comment letters and correspondence received from 27 Charles
Lawrence Municipal Airport
DEP File 4242-1876 Findings&Special Conditions—Stream Segment Drainage Improvements
Page 2 of 17
Lawrence Municipal Airport DEP FILE #242 - 1876
Street's independent engineer and that of abutting neighborhood association.
3. Consult with the Town Engineer and DPW Director to obtain understanding of the
drainage dynamics.
The NACCs 3rd party engineer, Bobrek Engineering, provided three rounds of review and
corm-rents, to which Stantec responded satisfactorily. The only remaining recommendation
from Bobrek suggests that, through a separate permit process, LMA/Stantec evaluate for
similar restoration, the section of stream that lies between the Runway 5 relocated stream
channel and the —225 I.f. stream section subject to this OOC in order to create one consistent
stream section throughout the length of the channel, reducing the potential for failures.
At its June 1.2, 2024 meeting, having received sufficient information, and there being no further
need for supplemental information and no remaining questions from the NACC, the abutters or
the public, the NACC voted by majority to close the hearing and issue an Order of Conditions
within 21 days.
In consideration of the applicant's request for a waiver for work to be performed within the
stream channel and the 25' No Disturb Zone, the NACC voted by majority to grant the waiver.
The NACC finds that the nature of the work (stream restoration) necessitates work to be
performed within the resource area and associated immediate buffer zones which will result in
an improved and enhanced condition of these resources.
The NACC reviewed and amended a draft Order of Conditions that same evening, and voted
by majority to issue an Order of Conditions, Findings of Facts and Special Conditions
approving the project under the Massachusetts Wetlands Protection Act and the North Andover
Wetlands Protection Bylaw.
Therefore, the North Andover Conservation Commission (hereafter the "NACC") hereby finds
that the following conditions are necessary, in accordance with the Performance Standards set
forth in the State Regulations, the local Bylaw and Regulations, to protect those interests noted
above. The NACC orders that all work shall be performed in accordance with said conditions
and with the Notice of Intent referenced below. To the extent that the following conditions
modify or differ from the plans, specifications or other proposals submitted with the Notice of
Intent, the conditions shall control.
GENERAL CONDITIONS
21. The proposed work includes: improvement of drainage conditions within a —225 11
section of intermittent stream channel located at the Runway 5 end at the Lawrence
LWM which have deteriorated as a result of lack of routine maintenance and a series of
significant storm events. The deteriorated conditions are exemplified by sediment
accumulation, bank undercutting, uprooted vegetation, channel widening and bank
overtopping. Improvement of the drainage conditions and the overall capacity of the
Lawrence Municipal Airport

1!aE 3 of 17
Lawrence Municipal Airport DEP FILE # 242 - 1876
intermittent stream system to convey stormwater flows and provide other wetland
functions includes the following measures:
a. Reposition the existing 24" RCP stormwater outfall from the upstream section of
the work area into an existing 30" RCP bypass culvert located approximately 200'
downstream of the work area. This will result in permanently diverting
stormwater flows from the subject stream that originates from 15.5 acres of LMA
property into the bypass culvert. Removal of this outfall will also assist in
arresting a portion of the bank erosion that is occurring just upstream of the
channel rehabilitation limits.
b. Rehabilitation of —225 I.f. of intermittent stream channel to restore drainage
capacity and reduce bank overtopping probabilities for the target theoretical
storm events. Design of this rehabilitation is described in detail in the NOI
narrative.
c. Installation of a short-term bypass culvert at the head of the channel rehabilitation
section to provide for protection of the channel rehabilitation section during the
vegetation regrowth period.
d. Bank repair and protection of sections above the channel rehabilitation limits to
limit further sediment inputs into the system thus protecting the restored flow
capacity of the rehabilitated channel.
e. In order to create a more consistent channel with available capacity and freeboard
an upland berm (top of berm to be at elevation 104) was added to provide better
protection from larger storms with the updated increased rainfall data and to
assure greater longevity.
f. Wetland plantings along the rehabilitated channel edges to restore and increase
bordering vegetated wetland within the work area thus meeting the wetland
performance standards of the Massachusetts Wetlands Protection Act Regulations
and the Town of North Andover Wetlands Bylaw.
g. Wetland impacts include: —225 I.f. temporary impact and replacement of inland
bank, 155 s.f. temporary impact and replacement BVW.
22. The work shall conform to the following (except as noted in the remainder of this
document where revisions may be required):

specifications dealing with the work proposed and shall supersede any conflicting
contract requirements. The applicant shall assure that all contractors, subcontractors,
and other personnel performing the permitting work are fully aware of the permit terms
and conditions. Thereafter, the contractor will be held jointly liable for any violation of
this Order resulting from failure to comply with its conditions.
34. The owners of the project and their successors in title agree that the Order does not in
itself impose upon the Town any responsibility to maintain the proposed drainage
system and that said Town shall not be liable for any damage in the event of failure. By
acceptance of this Order, the owners agree to indemnify and hold harmless to the Town
and its residents for any damage attributable to alterations undertaken on this property
pursuant to the Order. Issuance of these Conditions does not in any way imply or certify
that the site or downstream areas will not be subject to flooding, storm damage or any
other form of water damage. Maintenance of the drainage system, if accepted by the
Town as part of a public way, becomes the responsibility of the Town.
35. The restored stream section shall stabilize for a minimum of one full growing season
before water flow is reestablished within the stream. A qualified wetland scientist or
engineer must inspect the area to ensure the channel is stable and constructed as
designed before allowing stream flow to enter. This should be followed by inspections
during and/or following storm events of 1/2" or more in 24 hours during the first three
months followed by storm events of 1" or more during the following two years to ensure
that the channel is functioning as designed and remains stable. Within one week of the
storm event, the designated scientist/engineer shall submit a written report with
photographs documenting the observed conditions and impacts if any. The report may
be submitted as part of the weekly monitoring report (see Condition #51).
36. Issuance of these Conditions does not in any way imply or certify that the site or

shown on the approved plans and shall be monitored daily by the erosion control
monitor to ensure that sediment laden water is appropriately settled prior to discharge
toward the wetland resource areas. No discharge of water is allowed directly into an
area subject to jurisdiction of the Wetlands Protection Act and/or the North Andover
Wetland Bylaw. If emergency de-watering requirements arise, the applicant shall submit
a contingency plan to the Commission for approval, which provides for the pumped
water to be contained in a settling basin, to reduce turbidity prior to discharge into a
resource area.
64. Any fill used in connection with this project shall be clean fill, containing no trash, refuse,
rubbish or debris, including but not limited to lumber, bricks, plaster, wire, lath, paper,
cardboard, pipe, tires, ashes, refrigerators, motor vehicles or parts on any of the

an analysis certifying cleanliness - whichever is most applicable as determined by the
Conservation Commission or its staff.
65. All exposed soil finish grade surfaces shall be immediately landscaped and stabilized, or
loamed, seeded and mulched, with a layer of mulch hay. All disturbed areas must be
graded, loamed and seeded prior to November 1st of each year. Outside of the growing
season, exposed soil finish grade surfaces shall be stabilized with a layer of mulch hay
until climate conditions allow for seeding. During construction, any area of exposed soils
that will be left idle for more than 30 days shall be stabilized with a layer of mulch hay or
other means approved by the NACC.
66. No re-grading in the buffer zone shall have a slope steeper than 2:1 (horizontal: vertical)
other than that shown on the approved plan set. Slopes of steeper grade shall be rip-
rapped to provide permanent stabilization.
67. All project areas shall incorporate crushed rock pads to avoid sediment tracking onto
adjacent paved areas. Paved areas affected by the project shall be swept daily to remove
sediment deposited by construction vehicles accessing the site.
68. There shall be no stockpiling of soil or other materials within twenty-five (25) feet of any
resource area.
69. All catch basins and any other stormwater inlets on the site or within 100 feet of the
project shall be protected by silt sacks to prevent sediment from entering the drainage
system (except where proposed to be blocked or removed). Silt sacks shall be maintained
and regularly cleaned of sediments until all areas associated with the work permitted by
this order have been permanently stabilized and the NACC or its agent has formally
approved their removal.
70. All disturbed areas located within wetland resource areas which are to be only
temporarily disturbed during construction, shall be restored to their original grade, soil
profile and vegetative cover. Soil used for this purpose will either be wetlands topsoil or

a minimum of 4" of quality loam with a minimum of 20% organic material (soils to be
amended with clean leaf compost if needed). This shall all be done in accordance with
DEP Massachusetts Inland Wetland Replication Guidelines and Section 6.0 of the North
Andover Wetlands Protection Regulations.
71. If utilized, washings from concrete trucks, or surplus concrete, shall not be directed to
any drainage system or wetland resource area. If truck washing is to occur onsite an area
for this activity must be designated and approved by the Conservation Department at
the preconstruction meeting.
72. All waste generated by, or associated with, the construction. activity shall be contained
within the limit of work, and away from any wetland resource area. There shall be no
burying of spent construction materials or disposal of waste on the site by any other
means. The applicant shall maintain dumpsters (or other suitable means) at the site for
the storage and removal of such spent construction materials off-site. However, no trash
dumpsters will be allowed within 50' of areas subject to protection under the Act or local
Bylaw.
73. Accepted engineering and construction standards and procedures shall be followed in
the completion of the project.
74. During and after work on this project, there shall be no discharge or spillage of fuel, or
other pollutants into any wetland resource area. If there is a spill or discharge of any
pollutant during any phase of construction the NACC shall be notified by the applicant
within one (1) business day. No construction vehicles are to be stored or cleaned within
100 feet of wetland resource areas, and no vehicle refueling, equipment lubrication, or
maintenance is to be done within 100 feet of a resource area.
AFTER CONSTRUCTION
75. The coir logs located within the upstream Bordering Vegetated Wetland shall be
monitored and properly maintained to function as intended.
76. No underground storage of fuel oils shall be allowed on any lot within one-hundred
(100) feet of any wetland resource area. This condition shall survive this Order of
Conditions and shall run with the title of the property. This condition is issued under the
authority of the Town's Wetland protection Bylaw.
77. Fertilizers utilized for landscaping and lawn care shall be slow release, low-nitrogen,
phosphorous free types (< 5%), and shall not be used within 25 feet of a resource area.
