The project site is bound to the north by one of the Town's fire stations, to the east by residential properties on Osgood Street, to the south by Cochichewick Brook and associated wetlands and to the west Chickering Road. Project Site Development &Wetland Permitting History. The site was originally developed in the mid 1970's for the Town's high school campus, at which time the main building and associated parking were concentrated at the southerly end of the site and playing fields to the north. • September 1999 - a Determination of Applicability was issued to confirm delineation of all wetland resources found on site. • 2001 - an Order of Conditions, Mass. DEP File #242-1045,was issued governing a complete redesign of the campus including a new high school building, reconfigured parking, playing fields, campus access and circulation drives, utilities, stormwater management BMP's,wetland fill and replication. • 2004 the Order of Conditions, Mass. DEP File #242-1045 was amended to include synthetic turf fields for the track and football stadium, a natural grass baseball field and pre-existing tennis court repaving. • June 16, 2017- Mass. DEP File #242-1045 a Partial Certificate of Compliance issued for work associated with synthetic turf fields located at the lower fields (stadium and practice field) and at the track. Limited as-built plans were provided with this request - which included a partial existing conditions plan survey of the project area was conducted by Gale Assoc. on April 5, 2017- the limit of the survey was the synthetic turf perimeter. • June 19,2017- a Determination of Applicability was issued allowing replacement of existing synthetic turf carpets in both northerly and southerly fields • March of 2025 - Mass. DEP File #242-1045 a Partial Certificate of Compliance was issued for limited footprints and only specific aspects related thereto that included areas of tennis courts, shotput area,baseball field and select areas of Walsh Stadium. "Note: Any non-compliant features found as part of this Partial Certificate of Compliance review will be rectified during work performed under this Order of Conditions, DEP File #242-1906. A comprehensive as-built survey of the entire High School campus will be performed at the conclusion of work under #242-1906 so as to request a full and complete Certificate of Compliance for both OOC's #242- 1045 & #242-1906. 430 Osgood Street DEP File#242-1906 NACC Findings&Special Conditions Order of Conditions Page 1 of 21 430 Osgood Street,North Andover High School-DEP FILE#242—1906 Findings&Special Conditions Project Site Wetland Resource Areas: The NACC agrees with the delineation of the following wetland resource areas based on the Conservation Department staffs' field inspection, and reflected on the approved plan.

Procedural History: On January 23, 2025, the NACC received a Notice of Intent and associated attachments, stormwater management report, and site plans for proposed work at the project site. The NACC held the public hearing at its February 12, 2025, February 26, 2025, March 12, 2025, April 9, 2025 and April 23, 2025 meetings. This project was subject to permitting with the Planning Board pursuant to Limited Site Plan Review Permit under Article 8 Supplementary Regulations, Part 3 Site Plan Review and Article 10 Administration 195-10.7 of the North Andover Zoning Bylaw. The Board issued an approval decision on April 15,2025. The project stormwater design has been reviewed by the Towri s outside consulting engineer, Horsley Witten,for compliance with the Town Stormwater Bylaw requirements and Best Management Engineering Practices, the most recent version of the MA DEP Stormwater Handbook. There were extensive discussions between the Towri s outside consultant engineer and the project engineer related to the overall design and Operations & Maintenance Plan (See correspondence from Horsley Witten dated February 25, 2025, March 14, 2025 and April 1, 2025 and response correspondence from Gale Associates, Inc. dated March 10, 2025 and March 26, 2025). Throughout the hearing process, the applicant's project engineer provided a number of materials, documents and interim revised plans in response to the NACC and Conservation Department staff's requests (as well as the Planning Board's requests) for information and plan revisions. Portions of the work will occur within the wetland/stream resource areas as well as within the 25' NDZ and 50' NBZ. A Waiver Request has been submitted seeking relief from the restrictions in these zones. After due consideration, the NACC voted in favor of granting the waivers as the NACC finds: • Removal of the collapsed culvert and the entire asphalt walkway within the 25' NDZ and remaining buffer zone necessitates work within the resource area and the 25' NDZ. The NACC finds the complete restoration of the stream channel, associated bordering vegetated wetland and associated buffer zone to a naturalized state will improve and enhance the condition and function of these resources. • Removal of the gravel access drive and parking area from within the 25' NDZ and 50' NBZ necessitates work in these zones. The NACC finds complete restoration of the 50' NBZ with native seed mix to a naturalized state, that will not be subject to 430 Osgood Street DEP File 4242-1906 NACC Findings&Special Conditions Order of Conditions Page 3 of 21 430 Osgood Street,North Andover High School-DEP FILE#242—1906 Findings&Special Conditions mowing or other landscaping treatments,will improve and enhance the condition and function of these buffer zone resource areas. • The existing tennis courts have been in place, within the 25' NDZ, since the mid 1970's, and the proposed rehabilitation work will occur within the existing footprint of the court surface and slightly decrease due to chamfered edges. Stormwater runoff will be infiltrated via a proposed stone infiltration trench as requested by the NACC and will improve recharge. The NACC finds this work to result in no further degradation, but slightly improved conditions of the buffer zone. At its April 23, 2025 meeting, having received sufficient information, and there being no further need for supplemental information and no remaining questions from the NACC or the public, the NACC voted 7-0 (7 in favor, 0 opposed) to close the hearing and issue an Order of Conditions within 21 days. The NACC reviewed a draft Order of Conditions that same evening, and voted 7-0 (7 in favor, 0 opposed) to issue this 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 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/approved plans referenced below.
