concern about
the septic and fuel area in regards to shellfishing. Michael Flanagan, Harbor Master, stated the fuel dock arrangement is safer than what is currently in use.

It will have an air tight connection which hooks up to the boats and minimize the possibility of spillage. Emily Beebe is awaiting a response from DMF with information on habitat.
