Brad Caffyn, Tom F udala, Denis Bal arini <br /> Meeting convened at 7-05 p.m. <br /> Tom explained he spoke with Doug Storrs and Buff Chase of Mashpee Commons today about <br /> wastewater for the Mashpee Commons project and the proposal for a pipeline for discharge <br /> down to New Seabury. They are willing to come to the next Sewer Commission meeting, with <br /> their consultant, to talk about those issues. <br /> Brad asked if Andy Gottlieb could attend a meeting to talk about any available grant funds for <br /> wastewater facilities. <br /> Torn said he has already submitted an application to the State. Andy Gottlieb already did a <br /> program on the Cape discussing what funds are available. Tory said this Committee can discuss <br /> it but he doesn't think we should ask the State to come down here again. They have all that <br /> information in writing. <br /> Brad would like to have a discussion with them about what other towns have done, any mistakes <br /> they have trade so we do not repeat them. He 1s not against going to Boston to meet with therm.. <br /> He would like to hear about ghat kind of success other towns have had with these funds. <br /> Torn said a vast majority of the funds are used for planning and designing sewage treatment <br /> punts. <br /> Brad asked if the Mate has edueatiora materials, or courses on these subjects? <br /> Torn said they do not bold courses. He has some education material in his office. we would <br /> hire an engineering firm to get all these answers for us. <br /> Brad said there may be red flags out there for certain types of systems. Maybe we could send <br /> therm a letter with our concerns. <br /> Brad would also like to see the costs associated with the systems. <br /> Torn said the grant proposal is to hire an engineering firm to do that. <br /> Brad asked if the State would give us a guesstimate on costs, do they have that information <br /> available? <br /> Torn does not think the State would do that for us. They would expect as to hire a consultant but <br /> there is &cram money for a facilities plan. <br /> Brad asked if the Mate has an outline, for going through the sewering process? Torn does not <br /> know. <br /> Dennis suggested sending a letter to the State asking them for a list of other towns who went <br /> through this and we can contract them ourselves, especially towns -with similar topography. <br /> i brad said he is lling to listen to Mashpee Commons, at the next meeting, but W1 11 not make <br /> any comment on it because he does not have enough information. <br />
