excessive clearing and grading in proximity to wetlands. The owners stated
their intent to build a pool, Comm. Ouellette has concerns about the
groundwater in the area vis -a -vis the pool, particularly since the area is a

has concerns about Proximity to wetlands; would more favorably view 2:1 slope,
and additional changes to pull wort, back from the wetlands (using 146 as the

conditions 'regarding use of road salt. The conditions should mandate that
wetland replication BE DONE FIRST. Orders should also require cross - section,
