RE: APPROVAL OF VARIANCE GRANTED BY BOARD OF HEALTH(BRPWP59b)
22 Raleigh Tavern Lane,North Andover(15-Shawsheen)
DEP Transmittal No.31003558
Dear M/M Harb:
The Metropolitan Boston-Northeast Regional Office of the Department of Environmental Protection
has received and reviewed your application for approval of sanitary sewage variances pursuant to 310 CMR
15.410 and 310 CMR 15.412 with the above transmittal number.
The application contained written notification, dated May 4, 2000,that the North Andover Health
Department had approved variance to the following provisions of the State Environmental Code:
■ 310 CMR 15.212, as it relates to the separation of the bottom of the soil absorption system
(SAS)from the estimated high groundwater level; and
310 CMR 15.104, as it relates to performing a percolation test at the proposed site of the SAS.
Accompanying the application were plans consisting of one(1)sheet titled as follows:
Title: Upgrade Plan of Subsurface Sewage Disposal System
Location: 22 Raleigh Tavern Lane
Municipality: North Andover
Applicant: Joseph &Theresa Harb
Designer: Daniel Koravos, P.E. No. 37752
Date(Last Revision): March 17, 2000 (May 9, 2000)
An engineer of the Department reviewed the plans and the accompanying data, and it is opinion
of the Department that the plans are in compliance except for the following Title 5 provisions:
■ 310 CMR 15.212, as it relates to the separation of the bottom of the soil absorption system
(SAS)from the estimated high groundwater level[Three(3)feet of separation between the SAS
and estimated high groundwater, instead of the required four(4)feet, is proposed for this site.].
■ 310 CMR 15.104, as it relates to performing a percolation test[The soil conditions, especially
high groundwater, on the site preclude percolation testing. A sieve analysis was performed and

�a Printed on Recycled Paper
the most conservative long term acceptance rate(LTAR)for the class of soil was used to
calculate the SAS.].
As part of its approval, the Department will require that the following conditions be complied with by
the applicant and all subsequent owners or this approval be rendered null and void:
• Prior to construction, the applicant must obtain a Disposal System Construction Permit(DSCP)
from the North Andover Health Department.
• Title 5 of the State Environmental Code requires two deep observation holes be tested in the
area of the SAS. A second deep observation hole test shall be performed in the area of the
SAS at the time of construction. A copy of the soil log shall be forwarded to the Department. If
soil conditions are found to vary from those previously encountered, construction shall cease
and the North Andover Health Department shall be notified.
• The system is not designed to accommodate a garbage disposal. As such, one should not be
installed or used at this dwelling.
• It is the responsibility of the applicants to assure that the approved plans are available at the site
during construction.
The special conditions, outlined above, in no way should be viewed as superseding any conditions
imposed by the North Andover Health Department. The above conditions are meant to supplement any
other conditions imposed upon the facility.
It is the opinion of the Department that the requirements for the granting of variances as specified at
310 CMR 15.412 has been satisfied.The enforcement of the provisions of the Code from which variance is
being sought would do manifest injustice and the applicants have proved to the Department's satisfaction
that the same degree of environmental protection required under Title 5 can be achieved without strict
application of the subject provisions. The following paragraph outlines the Department's findings relative to
manifest injustice and equal environmental protection as they relate to the variances, granted by the North
Andover Health Department,which the Department hereby approves.
The site is limited by high groundwater. Because of this, a percolation test could not be performed.
The Department has granted variance from the percolation testing only for upgrades of existing systems with
high groundwater conditions. In these cases and with a variance, a sieve analysis may be used as an
alternate method to estimate the percolation rate of the soil. The SAS was designed using the most
conservative LTAR from the soil type determined through sieve analysis and verified by the soil evaluation.
The variance, from the separation of the SAS to the high groundwater from four feet to three feet, could not
be granted under local upgrade approval (LUA) because of the request for a variance from the percolation
testing. The upgrade of the existing failed system provides.for better treatment of the effluent by using the
full design area of the SAS and that no other variance nor increase in flow is sought. Based on this
information, the Department has concluded that to deny this variance would be manifestly unjust and that the
applicant has provided equal environmental protection.
This Permit is an action of the Department. Any person aggrieved by this action may request an
Adjudicatory Hearing. A request for a hearing must be made in writing and postmarked within twenty-one
(21)days of the Permit issuance date. Under 310 CMR 1.01(6)(b), the request must state clearly and
concisely the facts,which are the grounds for the request, and the relief sought.
The Hearing request along with a valid check payable to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts in
the amount of one hundred dollars($100.00) must be mailed to:
Commonwealth of Massachusetts
Department of Environmental Protection
P.O. Box 4062
Boston, MA 02211
The request will be dismissed if the filing fee is not paid, unless the appellant is exempt or granted a
waiver as described below. The filing fee is not required if the appellant is a city or town (or municipal
agency), county, or district of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, or a municipal housing authority. The
Department may waive the adjudicatory hearing filing fee for a person who shows that paying the fee will
create an undue financial hardship. A person seeking a waiver must file, together with the hearing request
as provided above, an affidavit setting forth the facts believed to support the claim of undue financial
hardship.
If you have any questions or additional information is required, please contact George A. Kretas at
(978)661-7744.

Dear Mr. Dufresne:
Conservation
Department I have reviewed the comments from Port Engineering concerning the most recent
(978) 688-9530 review of the proposed septic system repair plans at the above referenced
property. Two issues were brought up:
Health 1. the proposal to use a geo-membrane instead of a poured concrete wall for
Department breakout; and
(978) 688-9540
2. a missing note stating that the distribution lines must be connected with solid
pipe
Public Health
Nurse
(978) 688-9543 There are two other items which should be documented on the plan. These are
variance requests from local regulations for distance of the septic tank to
wetlands to be allowed to be 40 feet instead of 75 feet and distance of the leach
Planning area to wetlands to be 50 feet instead of 100 feet. The request to use a geo-
Department
(978) 688-9535 membrane and a block wall should also be placed on the plan.
If you have any questions about this letter, please call me at 978-688-9540.
