could be put towards a partial remediation. Mr. Marcelli and Mr. Theis believe that there will be <br /> multiple issues requiring remediation, and the request should be left open ended. <br /> The Committee discussed the current status of the Town Wide Road.Specifications. Ms. Laurent has <br /> not yet met with Mr. Rowley to seek agreement between the Department of Public Works and the <br /> Planning Board. The Committee agrees that a single specification is necessary to provide stormwater <br /> protection and management and discussed the possibility of going ahead and writing the regulations <br /> without input from the DPW. The Committee discussed the necessity of BMPs for each new and <br /> manufactured road as the leaching pits that are being used are not as effective in eliminating the <br /> nitrates. <br /> The Chair and Mr. Baker described the possible recommendations to request Textron funds that will <br /> pay for 1) the Santuit Pond Study, 2) The Blue Book, 3) BMP devices for stormwater runoff and 4) <br /> costs to finalize the Town Wide Road Specifications. The Chair suggested that the big comprehensive <br /> projects may not get as much attention as a number of smaller projects. <br /> The Chair recommended that the Committee provide to the Board of Selectmen the suggested projects <br /> along with priority and approximate costs. <br /> 1) Santuit Pond Study-$60,000 <br /> 2) The Blue Book-$30,000 <br /> 3) Stormwater management devices in 3 locations-$75,000 <br /> 4) Creation of Road Specification document-$15,000 <br /> Ms. Kane informed the Committee that the Orleans Blue Book can be found online at <br /> wuiw.orieaiispondcoalition.org, and is located by selecting"clean blue waters." Ms. Kane believes <br /> that the Blue Book project meets the stewardship criteria and is an appropriate fit for the Textron <br /> funds. The Chair agrees that it is a good fit for their criteria. The Committee also discussed the value <br /> of incorporating the schools into creation of the book,particularly the artwork, and crediting anyone <br /> who contributes, creating a true community project. The Committee agreed that they wish to have the <br /> book in print, but if necessary,the possibility of accessing the book online if printing funds were <br /> unavailable was also discussed. <br /> Wastewater Plant Update <br /> Mr. Marcelli announced that the EPA has approved the Zone 2 delineation as presented. The revised <br /> Zone 2 delineation shows that the Mashpee Public School's wastewater treatment facility subsurface <br /> disposable beds are outside of the Zone 2 boundary. It was also noted by the EPA that Sandwich <br /> should be made aware that Zone 2 no longer extends into their town. <br /> Mr. Marcelli shared photographs of the current condition of the plant. Due to the recent decision at <br /> Town Meeting, the town's Grounds and Buildings Department will be taking over the Wastewater <br /> Plant in July 2009. Mr. Marcelli pointed out styrofoam located under the grates which has caused <br /> rusting and deterioration. The styrofoam is being removed. Trees in the background need to be <br /> trimmed because they are limiting air circulation. Finally, funding has already been approved by the <br /> School Committee to add three strands of barbed wire to prevent access to the area. Inspectors <br /> identified safety issues as the major concern at the facility. The town will be working on developing a <br /> comprehensive wastewater treatment plan. The School Committee was advised that this type of plant <br /> 2 <br />
