The superintendent took the blame for it who said he didn't think it would be a problem. <br /> The Agent suggested they come forward with a notice of intent. He explained to the <br /> superintendent that he wanted to see everything that was there replanted down to the <br /> exact species. The shrubs were holding that bank together. He said the area is also a <br /> Natural Heritage Habitat. He said his recommendation would be New Seabury submit.a <br /> notice of intent to revegetate the area. He put a cease and desist order on the area. <br /> The Agent noted the superintendent has also gotten in touch with a restoration <br /> specialist. The Agent stated the State will be notified by way of the Notice of Intent and <br /> he plans to notify Natural Heritage. The Agent said he will draft an enforcement-order <br /> which will have specific timelines on which they need to file a notice of intent and fines <br /> will kick in automatically on a daily basis if they don't submit by the required date. It was <br /> summed up the commissioners to require them to come before.the commission with a <br /> notice of intent as soon as possible. <br /> Update- Briarwood Mashpee Association: drainage trenches <br /> The Agent showed some pictures where they redug out some of the trenches which <br /> where were refilled. The Agent said it is back in compliance again.

Barnstable designated their <br /> representative and Mashpee has to determine who is going to be their representative. <br /> The next step is to come up with a formalized management plan. <br /> plscusslon: Santuit Pond fish ladder <br /> The Agent noted this requires a site visit by the commissioners. He said the fish ladder <br /> was not designed properly and showed a photo of the herring that are backed up. He <br /> said this issue needs to be dealt with and he would like to take the commissioners out <br /> there for a site visit. He said the 5 pools are not deep enough to handle the flow and <br /> that flow gets so strong that it washes them back down into the river. There are too <br /> many pools and too shallow and the turbulence is so high they get trapped and get <br /> washed down the river by the hundreds, He said in his opinion, it is a design flaw. ,His <br /> ultimate goal is to have the commissioners go out and witness it and have the <br /> commission write a letter of concern and distribute It to the town manager, marine <br /> fisheries, natural resources and conservation services. We need to get everyone back <br /> to the table and come up with a solution. <br /> Update: Assistant Agent projects <br /> The Agent updated the commissioners on the Assistant Agent's projects.
