IV <br /> December 2, 1975 <br /> Town of Mashpee <br /> Selectmen's Office <br /> Town Hall <br /> Mashpee, MA 02649 <br /> Dear Sirs: <br /> I wish to apply for a private shellfish grant in accordance with <br /> the Commonwealth of Massachusetts General Laws Relating to Marine <br /> Fish and Fisheries; Chapter -130 Section 57 thru 68. <br /> The enclosed map and drawing show the exact location of proposed <br /> grant. <br /> The opening of a culvert from Waquoit Bay into Hamblins Pond has <br /> greatly increased the circulation of water in this area and this i <br /> should be very beneficial to the growth of shellfish. <br /> In recent years, shellfish have been getting fewer and fewer- in <br /> this location, but I feel with the issuing of a grant, I could <br /> heavily seed this area with quahogs and wait two to three years <br /> before starting to take them for commercial purposes. - <br /> In seeding this area, the seed would spread to surrounding areas <br /> in this location and improve the shellfishing in that portion of i <br /> Hamblins Pond in general. <br /> This would not be the first issuance by the Town of a grant of <br /> this type as one Carl Avant had a grant in this same area ivany <br /> years ago. <br /> I have been a part-time resident and tax-payer to the Town of : <br /> Mashpee for the past thirty-five years. It is:my intention to <br /> make Mashpee my full-time residence in the .near future. It ig <br /> in planning for this future that I feel a shellfish grant would _; <br /> be a good investment 'for me. <br /> Your cooperation and attention to this matter will be greatly- <br /> appreciated. <br /> reatlyappreciated. <br /> tz <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Georgi C. Leach �- <br /> 87 Judge Road �A <br /> a Lynn, MA 01904, and <br /> Monomoscoy Road <br /> Mashpee, MA �� Y� <br />
