Re: 14 Lorraine Avenue—Notice of Intent Narrative
Dear Commission Members:
Our office was contracted by Peter Breen to assist him with the filing of a Notice of Intent to
develop his lot at the above referenced property. There is currently an existing dwelling and
garage on the property. Portions of the house and almost the entire garage are within the 25 foot
no disturb zone to a large bordering vegetated wetland that exists on the property. Mr. Breen is
proposing to remove the existing structures on the property and to construct a new single family
dwelling on a more suitable portion of the property. In order to access the proposed house
location a portion of the resource area will need to be altered.
The resource area on the property is a large bordering vegetated wetland. The soils are well
drained but because of the high water table the hydrology is such that it supports a predominance
of wetland vegetation.
We are proposing the wetland crossing in the narrowest point of the wetland to minimize
wetland impacts. The wetland does slope towards Andover Street so we are proposing a series
of culverts to allow surface water to flow freely under the proposed driveway. We have
designed the driveway so that it is 10 feet wide with 3 foot grass shoulders and then a 3:1 slope.
The grass shoulders will provide room for the proposed utilities as well as a guard rail. There is
no practicable alternative available that will allow access to the upland portion of this property
without altering wetlands.
We are proposing to replicate wetlands in accordance with the North Andover Conservation
Commission Replication Guidelines as well as the Department of Environmental Protection
Replication Guidelines. The replication proposed is at a 2:1 ration in accordance with your
regulations.
In September 5, 2006 an Enforcement Order was issued for the unauthorized tree clearing and
illegal filling of a jurisdictional wetland resource area. The Enforcement Order required that the

property owner cease and desist from any activity affecting the Buffer Zone and or resource area
and that a restoration plan be filed with the issuing authority on or before September 22,2006.
Our office submitted a report, dated September 22,2006, and a restoration plan, dated September
21, 2006, as required.
Following submittal of the report and restoration plan we received an Addendum to the
Enforcement Order from Pamela Merrill dated September 28, 2006. The addendum set forth
certain dates that specific activities were to be completed by:
• All stockpiled logs and debris shall be removed from the site and disposed of properly.
All fill within the wetland resource area and its associated buffer zone shall be removed
until the original soil surface is evident. A Professional Wetland Scientist shall verify
and confirm that this has been successfully completed.
This task was completed in the fall of 2006.
• Upon completion of the above action items, the disturbed areas shall be immediately
stabilized with a fast growing seed mix for winter stabilization.
This was never done. The areas received snowfall that covered the ground into the
following spring. We consulted with the agent at the time and it was determined that as
long as there was no risk for erosion and sedimentation, there was no need for seeding.
• Once spring weather conditions are appropriate, the restoration planting scheme shall be
immediately implemented in order to take full advantage of the spring, summer and fall
growing seasons. Concurrently, the drainage ditch shall be reconstructed to mimic pre-
existing site conditions.
This was done during the spring of 2007.
• Immediately after the mitigation efforts are completed, the wetland scientist shall prepare
an initial inventory report detailing the types and number of plant species installed, as
well as amount of seed mix that was broadcasted throughout the area.
The following list of species was planted in the spring of 2007:
7— Red Maples (Acer rubrum)
2— Gray Birch (Betula populifolia)
31 — Highbush Blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum)
23 — Winterberry Holly (Ilex verticillata)
11 — Sweet Pepperbush(Clethra alnifolia)
16— Northern Arrowwood (Viburnum dentatum)

2— Red-osier Dogwood (Cornus sericea)
13 — Cinnamon Fern(Osmunda cinnamomea)
9— Sensitive Fern(Onoclea sensibilis)
5 Pounds of New England WETMIX
I Pound of New England Conservation/Wildlife Seed Mix
• The Weiland Scientist shall also monitor the wetland and buffer zone restoration areas
for two consecutive growing seasons. Monitoring reports shall be submitted to the
Conservation Cepartment at the end of each growing season (spring and fall). A total of
four monitoring reports for the restoration areas shall be submitted over a 2-year period
Monitoring reports shall describe, using narratives, plans and color photographs, the
physical characteristics of the wetland and buffer zone restoration areas with respect to
stability, survival of vegetation and plant mortality, aerial extent and distribution, species
diversity and vertical stratification, and the amount of invasive species in the at-ea. If at
the end of the second growing season, or at any time within the 2-year growing season
period, it has been determined that a 75%success rate has not been achieved, the NACC
shall require additional mitigation measures, such as additional plantings.
To date only I of the required reports has been submitted, Spring 2008. Our client has
contracted with us to start up the monitoring again until completion.
We look forward to presenting this project at your next scheduled public hearing. If you should
have any questions regarding this information please do not hesitate to contact our office.
