Mrs. Ferriday asked if they planned to open up the deck, or put on a new deck with spacing' They could have to modify the floats to provide petroleum resistant material and would have to have the proper spacing. Mr. Wilson stated he wanted to present it s it had previously existed. Mr, Sherman suggested they extend the pier out to the main float as they cannot access that float with a boat. Mr. Wilson did not think removing the inner float and lengthening the ramp would not be a problem. He has not talked with Chapter 91 fret. He would suspect that the inner float would be sitting on the bottom at Mean Lour water; half floating in the mud. Soundings are based on Dean Low Water. Ir. Desrosiers stated that used to be one of the prime shellfish areas in Popponesset Bay. Mr. Sherman stated the inner float should be removed and the outer one encapsulated.
