Mrs. Sloane said that it seems to her that the Fields Point land., the first part of the S pit, was under litigation for a long time. Mr. Hicks said. that the abutters had litigation between there and Fields Point. He said he thinks part f the settlement was that Fields Point reclaimed some land and filled it in and left some kind of a deal between them.

Mrs. Be Lory said that what we had p .ann e d to d .was have a continuance on this approximately two months from now, but inasmuch as the Notice of Intent had been filed., we had to have the hearing, adding that the contract for the impact study was just awarded.

Mrs. Landry asked how people will get out on to it and Mrs. Sloane said that there has to be public access. Mrs. Landry said that ;there is no way we should- tet vehicles out there. Mr. Dias said that in that particular area, there is room f or only four oars and that was done by the State Division of Fisheries. Mrs. Landry said that that's basic y because we have lost so much of it a- ap-m parently the idea was to save that piece of property so it could be used. They asked the state to try to do something - we lose another 10 or 151 each year there won tt be an access spot. It Vas stated that one of the Selectmen thought maybe we could get a price and dump boulders there. I Mr. Bias said that they dumped a kinds of trees in there and it washed away. Apparently the stumps and staff that was put in there to save it wasn't on the state property. Mrs. BeLory said that we will have a continuance on this so we can get more information on landowners.
