-9- <br /> C. Ecology: Because of the following information, the Quashnet Valley <br /> Country Club would not have a negative effect upon either the town, <br /> the project site, or the residents of the project: <br /> 1 . Water will be supplied by a publically franchised central water <br /> company which will utilize ground water sources. <br /> 2. Sewage will be disposed of by individual septic tanks and leaching <br /> pits requiring state approval . <br /> 3. Site drainage will be taken care of by leaching catch basins, preserv- <br /> ing the purity of Quashnet River and recharging water table. <br /> 4. Roads and buildings would be carefully graded and disturbed ground <br /> surface areas will be re-landscaped in a professional manner. <br /> 5. Diversion ditches, berms and other erosion control means will be used . <br /> during construction to prevent any erosion from taking place. <br /> 6. The project would not detract from the character of the area, but <br /> rather would set a high standard for future development. <br /> 7. Ground water is of good quality and plentiful . CCPEDC estimates that <br /> the ground water supply in Mashpee could support a maximum of 41 ,322 <br /> people, while another reports that Otis A.F.B alone could supply <br /> 70,000 people with water. The project will give much more to the <br /> 1 town in taxes than it will require in services. <br /> D. Traffic: Two access roads will serve the project. The practical capacity <br /> of these roads, based on width, alignment, lateral clearance and a speed <br /> of 35 mph is 500 + vehicles per hour. The maximum peak load generated <br /> by the projcet upon completion would be 223 vehicles. The 223 cars <br /> represent 1/4 of the residents moving within the peak hour. This low <br /> estimate is due to the fact that most of the units will be sold to <br /> seasonal people who will not generate a morning and evening "rush" . <br /> Assuming that 50% of those 223 vehicles leaving the project travel in <br /> each direction, the peak load represents 23% of the access roads capacity. <br /> E. Recreation: The Quashnet Valley Country Club would be almost self- <br /> contained with respect to recreational facilities. The residents would <br />
