New Developments/Existing Development Requiring Wastewater Treatment Plants: <br /> Mashpee Village is pursuing their own private treatment plant because Southport was unwilling to <br /> cooperate with a shared treatment plant. <br /> Mashpee Woods 40B project has been foreclosed. <br /> Falmouth Issues: <br /> Mr. Berrelli reported that there has been no additional information regarding the MMR treatment plant <br /> beyond copies of the letter that was sent to each of the 4 towns. Mr. Berrelli has no update for the <br /> Nitrogen Management meeting. <br /> Tom Cambereri reported that Falmouth will be submitting their CWMP for the eastern portions of the <br /> town. The Chair asked about receiving a copy of the report from Falmouth since the towns share <br /> watershed areas. Mr. Cambereri will check into the possibility of acquiring a copy of the report. <br /> Sewer/Funding Issues in Barnstable,Chatham,Orleans & Other Towns: <br /> The Chair noted that many Cape towns are struggling with financing their wastewater systems and <br /> discussed towns' use of betterments versus the tax base. The Chair announced that the Commission's <br /> goal is to meet required targets at the lowest cost. <br /> OTHER BUSINESS <br /> Burton Kaplan, representing the Board of Health,requested an overview of the project and a target <br /> date for the completion of the studies. The Chair responded that the original completion date was in <br /> 2002 and that the original project was intended as an 18 month study. Mr. Kaplan asked if additional <br /> contracts or analyses were expected,to which the Chair confirmed that further studies will be required <br /> from the contractors who are currently working for the Town of Mashpee. Mr. Kaplan questioned the <br /> costs of the studies to which Chairman Fudala responded that Sewer Commission funding is a <br /> $405,000 revolving loan from the State and approximately one half has been spent, in addition to one <br /> half of a$40,000 account set aside for unforeseen costs. <br /> The Chair and Mr. Berrelli discussed the need to unify numbers for the study,utilizing actual historical <br /> numbers, and the need to mesh the two studies to identify the best and most cost effective scenarios. <br /> EXECUTIVE SESSION <br /> MEETING ADJOURNMENT <br /> A motion to adjourn the meeting was made by Mr. Berrelli. The Chair seconded the motion. <br /> The meeting adjourned at 8:28 p.m. <br /> Respectfully submitted, <br /> Jennifer M. Clifford <br /> Board Secretary <br /> 6 <br />
