Page 3 <br /> Mr. Buckingham said they don't expect to go in right now and it maybe <br /> not for another 15 years and maybe then the manganese and iron will be <br /> controlled. But they don*t want to lose the opportunity by- not passing <br /> this by-law now. <br /> Mr. Maar•sters asked Mr. Buckingham if he thought this would become <br /> production well and will it be the first one , <br /> Nor. Buckingham replied he doubted it would be the first one , but h <br /> didn't want to lose something in the future for lack ofaction now, <br /> He stated however the long range prospects are not too goad that they <br /> will use 'It. <br /> Elizabeth Petti asked what implications on building and development <br /> would be by creating this specific district, <br /> .

Anything going <br /> in that area would have to show they are not increasing the contaminants <br /> of that designated area' . <br /> Mr. Mars tors said the nitrate loading limits.- nine pounds per 1,000 ft e t <br /> are very strict and and would limit it much more than other limitations <br /> mostly to one dwelling per acre . <br /> .

He sited a case <br /> pending in courts between the YWCA and the Town of Sandwich as to the <br /> reasons why the Committee only wants to use town owned land at this <br /> time and not make a taking. <br /> Ray Sweeney asked wouldn't this be considered a taking of land now. <br /> Mr. Buckingham responded that it wasn't a taking but they're just saying <br /> one has to use the land right, <br />
