North Andover Board of Health 146 Main Street North Andover,MA 01845 RE: Receipt of ENFORCEMENT ORDER Dear Mrs. Starr: The North Andover Land Corp. is in receipt of an Enforcement Order issued May 8, 1997 for 629 Salem Street,North Andover,MA. The house at 629 Salem Street,North Andover is vacant and has been since October 1996. Soon after learning of the system failure we notified the occupant of the problem with the system and asked that they vacate the home. We were forced to go to court to evict the occupant, and it wasn't until October of 1996 that they finally left. In December of 1996 we had the North Andover Department of Public Works shut off the water at the street and remove the water meter. We believe that we are not in violation of M.G.L. c.111, sec.31 because of the actions we have taken to prevent any further discharge of sewerage. If you disagree or if you require any further information,or if you intend to maintain that we are still in violation,please contact me immediately at 508-683-3163, other wise I will consider this Enforcement Order to be null and void with no further action on our part required.
