Dear Sir :
1n reply to your letter of December 22, 1977 concerning the sub-
division plans of Hardtcourt Estates , John W. Warlick, P . 0 . Box 216,
North Andover, Mass . , November 2, 1977; we have the following recom-
mendations to make :
We estimate the cost of an eight inch ductile iron cement lined
water pipe , seal coated inside , tar coated outside on the proposed
roadway at %.2,500.00. This is for 3680 feet of eight inch pipe in-
stalled 15 feet from the property line as shown on said plan with five
Feet of cover below the finish grade of the street . Eddy breakflange
hydrants to North Andover specifications are to be installed at stations
6 + 5Q, it + 0, 18 + 65, 25 + 80, and 30 + 80. These hydrants should be
installed with six inch Mueller or equal gate valves ( open left) complying
with AWdA specifications L500 52T with sliding type cast iron gate boxes
marked WATER, eight inch Mueller or equal grate valves ( open left ) will
be required at station 6 + 02 10 + 0, 20 + 0, 30 + 0 and 36 + 80.
All of the above work must pass the leakage and pressure tests
performed in accordance with Section 13 of AWWA standard 600 and shall
be chlorinated in accordance with AWWA C601 Standard Procedure for
Disinfecting Water Mains . .Adequate public liability and property damage
insurance as well as street opening bond in an amount satisfactory to
the Highway Surveyor will be required for the work on Great Pond Road .
This subdivision is proposed on the shore of Lake Cochichewick, our
source of water supply. Unfortunately, there is no municipal sewage
disposal available at this kite ; necessitating the construction of
individual subsurface disposal systems ,
r
i 2 _ }
The Board of Public Works supports any proposal which will assure the
safety of our water supply in conjunction with the construction of this
subdivision. It is our understanding that present Board of Health
regulations prohibit the construction of this subdivision as shown, and
that these regulations are being challenged in court .
The Board of Public Works therefore reserves our final recommendations
regarding this subdivision pending the outcome of these proceedings .
Very truly yours ,
BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS

Re: Hard Court Estates
Dear Paul:
After reviewing plans and making a field inspection of
this area I would like to make the following recommendations:
First, there are numerous existing drainage systems running
through this area& apparently maintenance on most of these
drains has been negl6cted over the years because some appear
to be plugged while others have no defined exit point. It
is most important that all existing drainage in this area be
definitely established and controlled so; that it will not
cause additional problems, to what T consider an already
difficult drainage area. The development of this land will
d6finitely be affected by this existing drainage system and
we must make sure that we take positive steps to control
this drainage to prevent it from coming back to haunt us at
a future date.
T would like to make the developer aware that any
drainage connected to a town controlled drainage system
must be done by submitting plans and be approved by the
Highway Surveyor.
I would also like to make the Planning Board aware that
the proposed road for this subdivision is laid out in a manner
which would be most difficult -to control any drainage without
maximum maintenance, especially during the winter months when
ice and snow donditions would most,likely be severe. By this,
l mean the combination of road curvature, road grades and the
grades of driveways and enbankments of lots #20 thru 33,
make a combination of items that usually cause leaching of
drainage and severe ice conditions. This type of drainage
condition usually requires extra snow and ice control and
would also require large amounts of sand and salt to combat
this problem.
r '
The drainage as proposed,for the road laid ou" is not designed
to handle the type of drainage that would cause the problem
that I have described.
As for the road drainage in general, I would say, that
although there appears to be enough catch basin units, as
required, I feel, that other drainage requirements would have
to be adjusted during field conditions and that special att-
ention would have to be given to -the shoulder areas. I would
like special provisions made for those adjustments, with
possible slope easement;, being required along with sub-drain--
ago. There are 10 instances there the drainage line crosses
diagonally with the Crater lino. This will not be allowed.
AddiA i.onal manhole units will have to be installed to solve
this problem.
/As for the siltation pond, this would have to be deeded.
to -the town along with all other drainage easements that would
be involved.
Taking into consideration that Lake Cochichvi,ck is our
drinking water supply and considered as North Anduve is greatest
asset, I am concerned as to whether or not we cou`Jd stop this
drainage from going directly into the lake. As suggested by
me on other occasions, I foe'l that it would be possible to
block off heals pond at: Zito 133 on Great fond Road and direct
drainage from any development in this area down through
George Barkerr+s land to the Merrimack River. I know it would
take, some good engineering and piping byt I feel it is feasible
and should be considered, due to the land area involved and
the effects that development in this area would have on our
water .supply.
This wi.l.l be the first drainage , from any development
being dumped directly into Lake Cochichw:i..ck and I question
whether or not the septic systems within the subdivision would
not infi.ltra,t& into this drainage system as it has from other
developments in our lake watershed.
Headwalls are to be: constructed per Highway Dept. Spec-
ifications. Available at the Highway Dept. Office. Shoulder
widths and grades to be determined in the field with slope
easements possible, lot 120 tharu #33.
Very truly yours,
William A. Cyr
Highway Surveyor
