NARRATIVE
Eugene and Judith Reilly are planning to undertake an extensive renovation of their
current residential property at 316 Johnson Street. The existing house will be renovated as
well as the construction of a three car garage,breezeway, and additional living space. They
also plan to make two (2) sewer connections to a new 8" PVC sewer main which is
scheduled for construction by the Town in June, 2004. Their existing subsurface sewage
disposal system will then be abandoned upon completion of the sewer extension and their
own sewer connection is made. The scope of work on their property also includes the
relocation of the southerly driveway, two (2)bluestone terraces, and a substantial amount
of landscaping as appropriate to enhance and accentuate the property.
No further alteration of previously undisturbed land surface is proposed. Erosion
controls shall be set in place along the limits of proposed alterations prior to start of
construction activities. Temporary soil stockpiling shall occur in the specifically
designated areas. Since the project site and the proposed activities are located within the
100 foot Non-Disturbance Zone, a Special Permit is required to allow only the allowable
activities as proposed to be constructed, based on the local by-law. The combined gross
floor area of the proposed building additions excluding the open porch and garage floor
areas is slightly less than the 25%maximum allowable increase in the gross floor area of
the existing single family residence. See the attached floor area tabulation as prepared by
the project architect. The existing sewage disposal facility and components shall be
abandoned appropriately upon completion of a sewer connection from the dwelling to a
sewer soon to be extended in Johnson Street to this property. This off-site sewer extension
project is scheduled to be done in the spring of 2004, under the direction of the North
Andover Department of Public Works. The proposed lawn and landscaped area will be
fertilized only with organic—type slow release fertilizer, subject to approval of the
Planning Board and Conservation Commission,to ensure that there will be no negative
impact from nitrogen loading concentrations upon downstream properties.
The existing site has impervious surface areas: structures- 3050 sq. ft.; pavement—
1660 sq. ft. for a total of 4710+/- sq. ft. The proposed site alterations result in an increase
in impervious surface area: structures—4,561 sq. ft.; pavement—7,378 sq. ft. for a total of
1 1,939 sq. ft. The overall increase is: 11,979 -4710 or 7,229 sq. ft.,not including
terraces. It is proposed to directly discharge all of the roof runoff from the proposed
additions to a proposed subsurface roof drain leaching basin within the driveway. The
runoff from the proposed driveways will be treated to retain and filter any pollutant matter
prior to recharging or discharging.
The driveway runoff will be directed to a catch basin(C.B.)which will have a four
(4) foot deep sump and gas trap affixed to the outlet pipe from the C.B. to the leaching
basin. A fossil filter is proposed for installation just below the catch basin grate. The
purpose of the fossil filter is to achieve significant pollutant removal,primarily gas,oil,
grease and suspended solids such as grit and sand. These pollutants could be generated
within the proposed driveway leading to the proposed three car garage. Substantial
pollutant removal in the pretreatment of surface runoff prior to discharging into the
proposed leaching basin to achieve significant recharge volume is the objective. The area
of proposed driveway pavement which will generate runoff to the proposed catch basin is
approximately 2000 sq. ft. For a two year storm, a rainfall event of 3.1"in a period would
generate a runoff volume of approximately 520 cubic feet(3900 gallons). Using a soil
permeability rate of 0.2 inchesihour over the bottom area of the I F x 14' leaching basin, a
recharge rate of 2.5 cu. ft. per hour can be realized. In a 24 hour period, 60 cubic feet can
be recharged. Therefore, with a storage volume capacity of 180 cubic feet, the excess
runoff volume(520-60-180=280 c.f.) from the 2 year storm would be discharged as
overflow through a proposed 6"pipe to be installed through the existing stone wall to a
proposed small rip-rap splash pad below which will be ahead of a proposed grass lined
treatment swale.
These two (2)proposed subsurface leaching basins shall be installed beneath the
proposed driveway pavement, and shall be surrounded with crushed stone. The parent soil
at this location is verified by a Soil Evaluator as loamy sand(Paxton—Hydrologic Soil
Group"C"), with an estimated seasonal high water table(E.S.H.W.T.) at 56"below
existing grade; (E1=240.8).. A similar leaching basin for the runoff from the building
addition roof areas is proposed to be installed adjacent to the driveway runoff recharge
leaching basin. The total roof area of the proposed addition is approximately 1770 sq. ft.
The capacity of this leaching basin is also 180 cu. ft., same as the other proposed basin.
The excess storm runoff will be discharged through a similar overflow system,then onward
toward the wetland below achieving further treatment and removal of any pollutant matter.
As part of this proposed building construction project,there will be a further
landscaping enhancement of the exterior surrounding the building. Specifically,there are
two (2)proposed terraces in conjunction with walk ways to be located in the front of the
dwelling and in between the dwelling and the proposed garage. The proposed finish
surface treatment in these terraces is bluestone set on a sand/gravel base. No mortaring of
the joints or spaces between the flat bluestone inlays is required. This style lends itself to
infiltration of surface runoff to the subsoil directly beneath the bluestone terrace area.
There will be a slight pitch to these areas which will allow for surface runoff to flow away
from these terraces toward lawn areas,particularly during high intensity rainfall events and
when the ground below is frozen.
The existing stream channel, which runs through the subject project site,has been
determined by D.E.P. to be an intermittent stream with an associated Bordering Vegetated
Wetland(B.V.W.) (based on a nearby property at 383 Johnson Street). The proposed
garage addition will be approximately 53 feet from the B.V.W.,whereas the existing 90+
year old house is situated approximately 34 feet from the B.V.W.
SPECIAL PERMIT UNDER SECTION 4.136
The project site is located within the Watershed Protection District,which is
establised to protect the watercourses surrounding and including Lake Cochichewick,the
sole drinking water supply source for the Town of North Andover. A Special Permit must
be applied for and obtained prior to commencement of the proposed site improvements as
shown on the accompanying plan, or as subsequently approved and conditioned by the
Planning Board. The project has an intermittent stream which exists within a bordering
vegetated wetland(B.V.W.). The existing dwelling is at least 90 years old. Therefore, any
proposed work or alteration in the 100 feet non-disturbance zone from the edge of the
delineated B.V.W. shall be subject to the requirements specified in the zoning by-laws
undor Section 4.136 Watershed Protection District. The regulations pertaining to this
district relate to the preservation and maintenance of groundwater.
There is approximately 21,500 square feet of proposed alteration(work) in the
v
non-disturbance zone between 25 feet and 100 feet from the wetland.No work is proposed
within 25 feet of the wetland. All of the work as proposed is typical of the type of permitted
by the Special Permit Granting Authority(S.P.G.A.),which is the Planning Board,under a
Special Permit. The design of the site improvements include Best Management Practices
which serve to improve the quality of storm runoff prior to discharge from the site or
where recharge facilities are proposed. For example,the volume of runoff required to be
recharged is 0.1"x 7,229 square feet or 60.2 cubic feet,whereas approximately 360 cubic
feet of recharge volume capacity is being provided, as proposed on the plan. The two (2)
leaching basins can handle this capacity from the proposed building roof area and a large
portion of the proposed driveway to the 3 car garage. The runoff from the remaining
driveway areas will be discharged into grass-lined treatment swales (40 feet and 50 feet in
length)prior to discharge over existing vegetation in the 25 foot no-disturb zone. These
stormwater management systems shall serve to adequately address the requirements of
this bylaw.
