MANSFIELD CONSERVATION COMMISSION MONDAY, AUGUST 12, 1985 MINUTES PAGE TWO Commissioner O'Neill voiced concern regarding two special conditions listed in the Superseding Order of Conditions for Matthew Estates, which the Conservation Commission denied in May. The two conditions are: No. 3 "The water -oil separator on Lots 7 and 8 shall be inspected and cleaned a minimum of twice a year. Prior to the commencement of the project, the applicant shall secure a maintenance contract with a licensed hazardous waste hauler capable of providing this service. A copy of the agreement shall be sent to the DEQE and to the Town of Mansfield's Highway Department and Conservation Commission." No. 6 "The use of de-icing chemicals (other than sand) shall not be permitted on any portion of the roadway known as Jacob Drive." Commissioner O'Neill felt Order No. 6 could not be enforced, and the State was not taking into consideration the drainage from the subdivision going into the Wading River. He made the following motion, which was later withdrawn: MOTION: To file a notice of a claim for an Adjudicatory Hearing on the decision made by DEQE relative to the Javitch property, for Superseding Orders No. 3 and No. 6 (File No. SE211-126).
