The fact that you neither attended the meeting nor forwarded a status report, the Board assumed that you are disinterested in completing both projects.

There is no reason, why these two subdivisions cannot be sinned off prior to the setting in of the Winter season.

On March 24, 1981, I submitted a memorandum to the Board of Health with respect to the soil testing, a copy of which is enclosed herein. In reviewing the impact of the subdivision on Mosquito Brook, the following are my findings : 1. The flow of Mosquito Brook, at the junction of the brook with Salem Street, has been calculated at 367 cubic feet per second. 2. The typical cross section (sheet 6A) indicates a brook- way area of 98. 13 sq. ft. at elevation 61. 5, 60 sq. ft. at elevation 61 . 0, and 35 sq. ft. at elevation 60 . 5. 3. Floodway elevation has been thus determined to be 61.0. My office will superimpose elevation 61. 0 contour on the I' definitive plans per the request of Dr. Vincent Turano, 1 s v�. . r 1 April 3, 1981 North Andover Planning Board 'age 2 In addition, Mr. Hedstrom requested the elevation change of the brook during the 100 year event as a result of the construction of Abbott Meadows .

At this time, the Conservation Commission has no input, as the proposed work is not within our jurisdiction. However, should there be any fur- ther work done outside of what these plans suggest, a Notice of Intent may be required. As can be seen on the plans, i4osquito Brook runs along the back of this property. The proposed construction should have no impact on this area.

Re: Abbott St. S. B. Homes, Inc. Dear Bill: I have gone over plans and also visited the site and make the following recommendations. In genergl I have no objections to this proposal and as you know I have strong objections to culdesacs and dead end streets, but in this case I cannot see where future connections of this proposal could be made, either to existing streets or future develop- ment in the area. c,_.. I would recommend 2 catch basins be installed at the intersection of Abbott Street and the sub- division road, instead of at Station 1.25, as shown on the plan. 2 additional basins should be installed at the intersection of road where it enters the culdesac and the grade of the culdesac should be re- versed, so that all water from the culdesac would E enter these basins. The drainage easement could stay the same but it should be deeded to the Town of North Andover, by the developer. Other Items: 1. Gravel to be of good quality and free of any stone larger than 6 inches. 2. Catch basins to be 8 in. pre-cast and all pipe to be re-inforced concrete, top grade. 3. Crown of the road to be 3/8 in. per foot. 4. Road to be paved 26 ft. in width and an 18 in. overlap of gravel. If there were a profile of this road, along with this plan, it would not be necessary for me to list some of these general items. Abbott St. as shown on this plan is not a Public Way. I wish to caution the developer, that even though Abbott St. is no gem we did spend a great deal of time, last summer, bringing it up to the present condition, which is a considerable im- provement. If concrete trucks and other heavy equipment give this road a pounding, while the frost is coming out, or during the spring thaw, it could be disasterous for this road. I would request that the developer use good judgment, in protecting this road because, where the road is private, and where we did make repairs and did an oil seal, that is all the repairs this road can expect, for another 4. or 5 years. So, if the road is broken or messed up the people will have to live with it, under those conditions. Any excavations within Abbott St. will require a Street Opening Permit along with bonding and set conditions. Very truly yours, 4 William A.

Town Building - Main Street Abbott Street North Andover, mh 01845 Dear Jean: From the plans submitted to the Conservation Commission, by the Plan- ning Board, it appears that none of the proposed construction will be within 100 feel; of any Wetland. Areas. Also, after a .recent site, the Commission agreed that the proposed construction work could be done without any detrimental effect on Mosquito Brook, at the rear of the sub-division. Therefore, we have no further comment to make. ,Should we find that a problem arises during construction, we will keep you advised. Although we have no jurisdiction on the work as proposed, any impact it may have on Mosquito Drook may be cause for the Commis- sion to become involved. If there are any further questions, please feel free to contact rite, or other members of the Commission. .Sincerely, for the Conservation Commission, (� James R.
