-6- Mr. Hennigan:_ I have recommended to this Commission and I think that they will take it under advisement that an Order of Conditions be issued specifically setting forth protective language that they want so badly and I don't blame them, I would do it tool in that the systems installed shall meet Title V in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and be installed in such a way so as not to interfere as impose a threat to the surround- ing area or the environment. We have substantiated documentation from the Board of Health and the Shellfish Warden saying that It should not impose any threat. Now, if the Commission has any other suggestions . . . Pauline: I have one question and, I have to consult DEQE as to just what the exact pro- cedure is after denial. What is the time limit. This I am not sure of myself. Mr. Hennigan: You have twenty-one days. Pauline: Because you have not appealed it. Mr. Hennigan: I did not want to do that. Because this is a ridiculous approach, it ties up everybody. Pauline: (Our twenty-one day time limit is by-passed us now. This is why I have to look out for the Board's safety, my own, and what the legal procedure is under the State law. Mr. Hennigan: You have already conducted a continuance. This is what we had here this evening. As of tonight, this is the beginning of your twenty-one days legally. Pauline: But legally a continuance was not typewritten and submitted. George Benway: What you are asking that after the twenty-one days have gone by, when can a re-submittal be made? Dorothy: If he submitted an appeal . . . Pauline: But he didn't submit an appeal. This is why I have to check on the timing. Dorothy: Asks Mr. Hennigan: Did you appeal :a denial order from DEQE? Mr. Hennigan: No. The appeal process is still open. Pauline: The ?3rd of December it was appealed. Mr. Hennigan: Legally, if you issue an Order of Conditions any time within twenty-one days from tonight it is legal. I have some amendments that I am going to give you. Pauline: Well, this is what I have to check for myself. We will let you know on this. George Benway: The Sanchez's are looking for your help as a Committee to show them how to construct the septic tanks and so forth to conform to the prescribed regulations. I know them and they are looking for your help. Mr. Hennigan: I am sure they will find it. Before we close are there any questions? Is there any advise that I can give,; you and I am not talking about the commission's ruling, but engineering wise as a Sanitary Engineer.
