Regulatory officials from the Conservation <br /> Commission, Board of Health, Planning Board, Sewer Commission and Zoning Board of <br /> Appeals were in attendance. Sewer Commission members Joseph Lyons and Bradford Pittsley <br /> were present for the discussion facilitated by Jeff Greg of GHD, Inc., Mashpee's wastewater <br /> consulting engineer. <br /> Mr. Gregg reviewed in general,the components and analysis of the Plan. This includes best <br /> practices for managing operations, watershed agreements, potential site locations and revenue <br /> streams. There was a bit of dissatisfaction that no secondary meetings are planned to effectively <br /> work on this approach. <br /> It was noted there was some inquiries from the attendees,but not a lot of substance. There was <br /> comment regarding phosphorus, lead and Prozac levels in drinking water. Phosphorus is not as <br /> prevalent, and this should not be an issue in sewer processing as the treatment is intended to <br /> remove contaminants. Increased development adds to nitrogen loading and should be addressed. <br />
