Estates) -- Construction of house and septic system, grading within buffer zone

buffer zone completely. Commissioner Ouellette commented that the water level on
site is now higher and closer to the road than on the original plan submitted in
the SE211 -126 filing. The applicant indicated that the wetland line is taken from
the 1984 plans; therefore, the edge of wetlands may be questionable. This site
