Mr. Carter, P. Sullivan of Baxter & Nye and Mr. & Mrs. Foley were in attendance for this scheduled appointment. Mr. Carter stated: "Two main issues remain outstanding from the last meeting. One was four feet of permeable soil from the bottom of the leaching facility and the second was DEP probably not allowing an addition to the dwelling due to distance from the wetland. Mr. Carter stated that Mr. Sulli- van is present to answer any technical questions. " Mr. Greelish asked if anything has changed. Mr. Sullivan replied: "No. There is only 2 .5' of natur- al permeable soil. We are proposing to remove to top and sub soil and replace it with permeable soil and setting the sys- tem on top of that. We perked to top and sub soil and it does perk at 2 minutes per inch, but whether this is consid- ered suitable material is questionable. In field classifica- tion it is considered loam and sub." I Mr. Evans stated he did witness the perk test in the top and sub soil Mr. Sullivan stated that the wetlands were identified by Sanford Botanist and Conservation agreed with the line on the West. On the East Conservation felt the line should be the retaining wall which we did. "This is the best we can do geometrically. The primary and reserve are planned to be in- stalled to spread out the loading rate. " Mr. Carter stated the DEP' has indicated in'writing that the addition, deck and septic upgrade were not located in the restricted wetlands.
