REID SILVA FOR STEPHEN JUDGE AND JAMES SKELTON; NOI SE 12 – 601; AP 19-41; # 21 Fulling Mill Road: Mr. Fischer opened the public hearing at 12:35 PM. Mr. Silva summarized the plan to replace a failed cesspool with a septic tank, pump chamber and force main system within the buffer zone of a bordering vegetated wetland and with the 200-foot riverfront area. He added that an abandoned well pit will be filled in with the excavated material. The remainder will be removed from the site. Silt fencing and hay bales will be installed to protect the resources. The total project will take about four days to complete. Mr. Walton suggested clearly defining the limit of work area to keep the machinery out of the resource area. Mr. Silva agreed. The site visit
was discussed and the Commission agreed this is a much better septic plan than the cesspool. Mr. Silva commented this plan was approved by the Board of Health. With no comment from the audience a motion was made to close the hearing at 12:45 PM. The motion was seconded and unanimously approved. A subsequent motion was made to approve the plan as presented with the addition of Mr. Walton’s suggestion to clearly define the limit of work. The motion was seconded and unanimously approved.
