CONSERVATION COMMISSION AGENDA 2/20/13 @ 12:30 PM
Site Visits will take place on February 19 @ 12:30 PM.
- PUBLIC HEARING NOI SE 12 - ???; KAREN LOMBARD (OF THE NATURE 12:30 PM CONSERVANCY) AND ISAIAH SCHEFFER FOR THE TOWN OF CHILMARK; Town Cove; Tisbury Great Pond: Create a 0.99-acre site on land under the Tisbury Great Pond for a native oyster restoration bed. The pond is owned by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The proposed bed is located in Town Cove and straddles both the Chilmark and West Tisbury Town lines. The plan calls for the clam shell deployment and oyster seeding to take place in summer 2013 with the monitoring completed by October 2014.
- PUBLIC HEARING NOI SE 12 – 678; GEORGE SOURATI FOR SWB LTD. 12:40 PM
PARTNERSHIP; 8 Greenhouse Lane; AP 33-30: Follow up Notice of Intent for an Emergency Certification that has already been issued for the work. The applicant would like to add beach nourishment of matching river rock sediment at the base of the coastal bank to stabilize the erosion and protect the house that is 10 feet from the edge of the bank at the deck’s closest point. Approximately 3.5 feet of additional river rock will be added and proceed approximately six feet away from the bank and toward the ocean. It will slope down to sand over an additional 7 feet of beach and rock. The added rock will be 140 long and the end of the stones will be approximately 40 feet from the observed mean high tide mark. The eastern end of the additional rocks will
end about 12 feet from the east lot line and continue to the western lot line. The face of the coastal bank will be stabilized by installing coir logs with ten-foot long anchors in the face of the bank; added sand and loam sediment and jute netting for planting beach grass plugs. The applicant is asking to maintain the bank planting and rock sediment for three years. This is in response to severe coastal bank erosion caused by Hurricane Sandy.
- PUBLIC HEARING NOI SE 12 - ???; DAVID MICHNIEWICZ OF 12:50 PM
COASTAL ENGINEERING FOR NATALIE CONROY; 22 Greenhouse Lane; AP 33-33: Relocate the existing single-family dwelling and guesthouse structures farther north and away from the top of the coastal bank. The existing septic tank, old water well pipe and associated materials will be removed. All of the work is within the 100-foot buffer zones of the coastal bank to the south and a wetland to the north. The main residence will be relocated over the existing roadway and on the wetland edge. Both of the structures will be approximately 15 feet from the top of the bank. This is required because of severe coastal bank erosion caused by Hurricane Sandy.
- PUBLIC HEARING NOI SE 12 – 679; GEORGE SOURATI FOR 1:00 PM
WHALE HILL, INC.; 16 Greenhouse Lane; AP 33-31: Follow up Notice of Intent for an Emergency Certification that has already been issued for the work. The applicant would like to add beach nourishment of matching river rock sediment at the base of the coastal bank to stabilize the erosion and protect the house that is 45 feet from the edge of the bank. Approximately 3.5 feet of additional river rock will be added. The sediment will stop ten feet from the western lot line. The river rock will gradually slope down to the existing level at a 1:4 ratio. This downward slope to the beach will therefore start approximately 25 feet from the western lot line and conclude ten feet from the lot line. The face of the
coastal bank will be stabilized by installing coir logs with ten-foot long anchors in the face of the bank; added sand and loam sediment and jute netting for planting beach grass plugs. The applicant is asking to maintain the bank planting and rock sediment for three years. This is in response to severe coastal bank erosion caused by Hurricane Sandy.
