Nantucket, MA 02554
Subject: Updated Returns Plans
Baxter Road Temporary Stabilization Project (SE 048-2610)
Dear Chairman Steinauer:
Please find attached plan and isometric views of the returns in a design that should
be responsive to the Commission’s requests. Although the Notice of Intent is for
four-tiers of geotubes with full returns, as previously submitted, the enclosed plans
provide the design information for the Commission to issue an Order for 3-tiers of
geotubes, as-built, with geotextile, jute or coir returns, to-be-built. Please note
that the isometric plan for the three-tier return also reduces the beach excavation
that is applied for in the 4-tier version (+3 to +4 MLW instead of +0 MLW).
Neither version would involve any bank excavation. Please also note that the plan
view also updates the base map using the current shoreline and bank contours
from the survey data gathered for the recently submitted updated as-built of the
existing three-tier system.
We look forward to discussing this further with the Commission at the April 30
public hearing. Please contact me at (703) 489-8945 or via email at
mhartnett@epsilonassociates.com for any questions regarding this submission.
Sincerely,
