Robert P . Fagan DECEMBER 29 , 1995 <br /> Regional Engineer for Resource Protection <br /> Massachusetts D . E . P . <br /> Division of water Pollution Control <br /> 20 Riverside Drive <br /> Lakeville , Ma 02347 <br /> ; t Subject : Mashpee Commons Groundwater Permit Application <br /> Permit No . SE # 2-30 <br /> Cape Cod Times Legal Notice 12/11 /95 <br /> Dear Mr . Fagan, <br /> I , herewith, request a Public Hearing be held on the sub 'ect <br /> application. I further suggest that the Hearing be held in Mashpee to <br /> allow the maximum public attendance of concerned citizens . <br /> I reside in close proximity to the Estuarine portion of the Mashpee <br /> River and ani deeply concerned about the proposed discharge ' s affect on <br /> the River . <br /> The limits proposed in the application .exceed the total carrying <br /> capacity of the River (as determined by the Gape Cod Commission <br /> without cons ' deratlon of other sources within the watershed It should <br /> be noted that the area served by the application is small when compared <br /> to the total watershed area . <br /> I have additional concerns relating to the application that I feel <br /> should be addressed. The f o 1 lowing are a few examples . <br /> why is the number of monitoring wells being reduced from 5 to 4 when at <br /> least one of the wells has a seasonal pattern that exceeds the results <br /> of samples? what is the cause of the high readings @ Mw-2 ? Should <br /> added wells be placed between the Plant and the River ? <br /> With Restaurants and Supermarkets connected to the Plant shouldn ' t <br /> there be tighter VOC sampling on the effluent and monitoring wells than <br /> twice a year 9, <br /> Does the need to increase the quantity of. effluent from the <br /> Plant by a <br /> factor of 5 from the current level exist ? <br /> Has any -s,tudy been undertaken to assure the integrity connecting- <br /> �, y of the �.onnect log <br /> pipin9 from, the various sources to the Plant ? <br /> Can the effluent be piped to a d.ischar e location t ` <br /> g har is less <br /> envi ronmerital l'y sensitive ? <br /> Thank you for your consideration of my concerns . <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Edward A.
