WETLANDS PROTECTION ACT HEARING CONTINUATION - SE211 -349 Lot 7, Riverwood Estates. A field walk took place on 4 -27. The line which was accepted was essentially the line submitted on the original plan dated 4 -22 (the rev. plan dated 4 -29 and submitted at this meeting showed the same line, and incorporated additional features such as clay barrier). Mssrs. Trowbridge and Wright were present at the meeting. They and the commission agreed that the new plan reflects what was agreed to on the site walk. It was noted that the septic system could not be sited in front, so house could not be moved back on plan. Dick mentioned the possibility of a dry well for a swimming pool. MOTION- To close the hearingg - (Rhoads - O'Neill; all in favor) VOTED REPLICATION AREA FOR RIVERWOOD ESTATES; Comm. Rhoads feels a corrective measure is necessary to bring the area back: up to proper grade, because at the moment it is clearly over - excavated. Steve Wright stated that he had submitted an ERC report about the replication area in support of Certificate request, which was accepted by the commission. It was explained to Mr. Wright that the commission took the report as a sign of good faith that progress was being made, not that the area was acceptable or complete. The area has been monitored by ERC. The commission's consensus is that it is necessary to show that the 'replication area is C equivalent in function to the wetland that was lost. The burden of proof is on Mr. Wright and his botanist to convince the board of this. Chairman Powers has concerns 'regarding the detention area on lot 9 vis -a -vis street acceptance. The developer still holds the title to lot 13, so the 'replication area work can be done. WETLANDS PROTECTION ACT HEARING - SE211 -352- -Sohn Riccio- -Essex St., lot 42 -- Construction of Fawn Lane and associated drainage structures within the buffer zone. James Dunn represented Mr. Riccio. The NOI includes the same NOI filed under SE211 -224. Purpose: To construct roadway, associated drainage, and house on lot 3 off of the roadway (part of Essex Heights subdivision). The area was flagged in 1987. Construction on lot 3 has been added. Storage of 100 -year- storm has been allowed for in a basin which acts as both a retention and detention basin, as proposed and approved by the con com and p. b. in 1987. Siltation controls are shown farther from wetlands than on original plan. Chairman Powers asked whether this NOI included removal of old ice -house foundation, debris, etc. as specified by the original Order of Conditions. Mr. Dunn was not aware of the ice -house foundation. Comm. Rhoads would like to review drainage calculations and test hole data. This subdivision lies within the Water Protection District. Dry wells will be required for roof drains. The siltation control line is the limit of clearing line also. Abutters were present. Anne Cirillo, 100 Essex St., had questions about street drainage; Mr. Dunn explained the catch basin system shown on the plan. Dick will verify the wetland line, and the commission will then decide whether there is a need to review the site. Revised plan dated 4 -13 -91 on sheet 1. MONDAY, APRIL 29, 1991 -- PAGE 3 MOTION: To continue the hearing to 5-6- -91 at 7:20 at the H.S. cafeteria. (Rhoads - O'Neill; all in favor? VOTED STREET ACCEPTANCES: RIVERWOOD - Chairman Powers has no problem sending a letter to the Planning Hoard stating that Commission concerns Have been addressed, as long as the replication area is the only issue outstanding.

Street acceptance review will be scheduled the meeting of 5 -13 right before town meeting. ORDER OF CONDITIONS - SE211 -251.
