I ` <br /> i <br /> and got input and Parker was supposed to collate the questions that wesub- <br /> mitted that night to the people that were there and he hasn't sent that. <br /> Mr.: Gargiulo mentioned that the Trustees of Reservations own a big hunk <br /> of it and they are # private foundation. They are pretty well backed by the <br /> state - they own land all over the state. They were a whole bunch of old fam- <br /> ilies and they picked up land all over the state. The Mashpee River is prom <br /> bably one of the last unspoiled bodies of water. The discussion turned t <br /> making the I ashpee River a scenic river. Apparently it involves federal law <br /> and when we were pushing them on it, they had not yet made a decision and <br /> were working on a river elsewhere. The rive is not running through any <br /> other tate or town ', contained a nt i re ly in the Torn of Ylashpee. <br /> Mr. Buckingham lent tined that he has discussed this With Frank Ricks <br /> and Mr. Dicks said the -survey ' s all done.., but • still haven't gotten any <br /> report. The soil survey was to be the a fitire watershed involving 4100 <br /> acres from the iashpeem- akby dawn to Popponesset Bay. Hr. Gargiulo said <br /> that he has some definite input With the Lt. Governor's office and he could <br /> find out about it that he'd hate to see itletgo. <br /> - <br /> Mr. Buc kingham wants those re p or is f ou d and favors a f or al me a ting <br /> at whic h.we I re told thi s is as f ar as we c an g o. <br /> Mr. Gargiulo mentioned the Bay itself - that the Bay is just about dead <br /> ecologically - if you put it over a period of 15 years, it's almost dead. <br /> Mrs. Sloane said we cannot dredge,, -they need a hydrological study first. -- she <br /> said that Falmouth harbor was very'-polluted and they got a,man from NIT who <br /> was going to do the hydrological .study, adding that he is very good. When <br /> the s tudy i s done, t hen the Army Cforps of Engineers says okay,or' not• then <br /> we g o f or f de ral grants:-Y'+lf, it •broke=through ---i t. would give the -Bay a be t� <br /> ter flush. If,that Bay gets tied up, it would tie up the, Mashpee River. <br /> Mrs. studley..ask d- if. the umbers wanted to act on the Orders of Condi <br /> tions. Everyone acquiesced, and she asked if there should be any restriction <br /> on Meegan and it was suggested{ that we put in that the Conservation Commission <br /> has no jurisdiction over septic systems. Apparently the abutters are d s� <br /> turbe - he may have. to `pump. . The -Conservation Commission recommends that an <br /> engineer be -retained to- design his septic system. <br /> The only other-'ream- endationas that- dger• ply'. use light e ui ent to <br /> backfill. <br /> - <br /> - r <br /> r , ' <br /> f T <br /> - r SIF � � •IF �f Yk �F v <br /> Mrs. Sloane --said this afternoon one of 'the things that was brought up...� . <br /> at the onmes ,te -inspection was that they clair d' that we were settifig a pre- <br /> cedent and Mrs. Sloane told them that the CoTrMission was not, that each case <br /> that we see is decided on an indi idua L basis. Mrs. Studley couldn't figure <br /> out why they all agreed at the time that it was a fine thing to do. Mrs: <br /> Sloane said that if some guy decides to dig out a bog and attach it to a + <br /> pond, they think that we have set a precedent by letting Wheeler, do it and <br /> Mr. Buckingham tossed in that each action is Judged on its own particular <br /> merits. <br /> All Orders of C ondi ti ons were signed by all of the meribers of the Com-, <br /> mission. <br /> "L 4Z+vLriI -tr neq &,,r. 4n-;vft%A 4 In o%4, M....•. 091 D__ <br />
