PROJECT SUMMARY
673 Great Pond Road
North Andover,Massachusetts
September 3,2008
This proposal involves resurfacing the rear patio at 673 Great Pond Road in North Andover,
Massachusetts. In doing so,347 square feet of heated impervious surface area will be added to
the existing patio. The 347 square feet includes a new 64 square-foot spa. The hot tub will be
flush with the existing grades and will be surrounded by a fence that complies with local pool
codes. This fence will be hidden by proposed shrubs and landscape beds that will surround the
patio. Subsurface piping will be installed in the bluestone base, and circulating hot water will
eliminate snow accumulation.
The property has recently completed a review by the North Andover Conservation Commission
(NACC)of the lot's wetland areas and limits of wetland buffer zones and received an Order of
Resource Area Delineation(DEP File Number 242-1424)confirming the resource area
boundaries on the proposed project site plans. Additionally,the NACC issued an Order of
Conditions(DEP File Number 242-1429)for minor landscaping and wall reconstruction on the
lot. This work is in process. The patio and associated spa will be located outside of the 100' non-
disturbance zone and wetland buffer zones, as noted on the plan. However,the entire property
falls within the 325' no-discharge zone.
There will be no significant changes to the existing grading. Areas of new impervious surfaces
will have a 1% slope that will drain any runoff into adjacent planting beds,where it will percolate
into the soil.
The mechanics of the spa will be placed in the basement of the existing house alongside the
mechanics of the existing swimming pool. The spa shall incorporate a chlorine-based treatment
system. When necessary,the spa will drain into the public sewer.
We propose to place the spa in this specific location because of its appropriateness. It is located
in the rear of the property and is adjacent to the existing patio and existing indoor swimming
pool. Additionally,the location is well separated from the wetland areas on the property and will
drain to planting beds and lawn,which will readily infiltrate runoff from the patio area. The
attached certification confirms the non-significant effects of the proposed project on the water
quality and quantity discharging to Lake Cochichewick.

Re: Special Permit Certification
673 Great Pond Road
North Andover,MA
Dear Ms.Tymon:1.
Asa professional wetland scientist certified by the Society of Wetland Scientists,and a
Natural Resource Scientist certified by the State of New Hampshire,I have reviewed the
design and siting of the proposed spa facility at 673 Great Pond Road in North Andover,
Massachusetts.
The proposed project represents a minor modification of an existing patio area to incorporate
subsurface piping and a fenced spa facility. The project will add 347 square feet of
impervious area that will include the placement of a new 64 square-foot spa facility. The
work is proposed in an existing patio location behind the house on the parcel and adjacent to
an existing indoor pool facility. The location is relatively central to the developed portion of
the property and the drainage from the patio area will be onto a modest expanse of lawn area
with relatively flat slopes. The proposed work will have the effect of reducing some lawn
area onsite. However, it is not expected that this will reduce the ability of the remaining lawn
to readily infiltrate the additional runoff from the patio area. This is as a result of the well-
drained soils associated with the site,the flat grades,the distance to the wetlands,and the
dense turf grass in the lawn area.
The runoff from the patio area is not expected to include any water quality constituents that
Would have an adverse effect on Lake Cochichewick;and it is important to note that the spa
area,while treated with chlorine,will be maintained through mechanical equipment within
the existing pool house and there will be no discharge of chlorinated water resulting from
pool service or maintenance. Due to the nature of the proposed use,there is no expected
nitrogen,phosphorus or other chemicals that are remotely likely to be released as a result of
the proposed project.
