WET- DE No. SE 48-3115 / 1 2020 NOTICE OF CLAIM FOR ADJUDICATORY A 1. The Siasconset Beach Preservation Fund (the "Applicant" or "SBPF") hereby files this claim for adjudicatory appeal from the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection's ("Department") issuance of a Superseding Order of Conditions ("SOC," Exhibit A), dated January 28, 2020 concerning the properties located at 59 — 119 Baxter Road, Nantucket, Massachusetts (the "Property"). I. Applicant Information, Information of Other Interested Parties, and History of Review 2. SBPF and the Town of Nantucket jointly filed a Notice of Intent ("NOI") with the Nantucket Conservation Commission ("NCC") for the Proposed Baxter Road and Sconset Bluff Storm Damage Prevention Project ("Proposed Project") on January 5, 2018. However, SBPF independently filed a Request for a SOC of the Commission's Order of Conditions ("00C") that denied Proposed Project. 3. The Proposed Project seeks to extend the geotextile tube system to the north and south of the existing length of geotubes which was initially allowed by the NCC when it issued an 00C on September 20, 2015 (SE 48-2824) ("Existing Project"). 4. As described in more detail below, the Existing Project was the result of SBPF's original proposal to stabilize approximately 4,000 feet of eroding Coastal Bank from 63 to 119 Baxter Road. Through various appeals and decisions to provide some immediate protection for the most actively eroding reach of Coastal Bank, the approximately 900-foot Existing Project was approved and then built. 5. The purposes of the Existing Project and the Proposed Project are to: 1) complete the project originally sought by SBPF and the Town of Nantucket pursuant to a Memorandum of Understanding dated July 2013 ("MOU"), and 2) to provide storm damage protection for pre-1978 homes and other public infrastructure associated with Baxter Road along the portion of Sconset Bluff that continues to actively erode. The new section of geotextile tubes will: 1) extend north from the Existing Project to protect three (3) pre-1978 homes (109, 113, and 115 Baxter Road), which necessitates extending the geotube returns onto 117 Baxter Road; and 2) extend south to protect 13 pre-1978 homes between 59 and 85 Baxter Road with returns extending across a portion of 55 Baxter Road. This comprises the "Full-Length Project." 6. The NCC issued an OOC denying the Proposed Project ("Denial 00C") on June 20, 2019, under both the Wetlands Protection Act, M.G.L. c.131, §40 (the "Act") and the Nantucket Wetlands Protection Bylaw. A copy of the Denial OOC is attached as Exhibit B. 7. On July 2, 2019, SBPF filed a Request for a SOC with the Department under the Act. 8. On July 9, 2019, SBPF filed a Complaint in the Nantucket Superior Court appealing the OOC under the Nantucket Wetlands Bylaw. 9. SBPF has a mailing address of P.O.

The other interested party is the Nantucket Conservation Commission with an address at 2 Bathing Beach Road, Nantucket, MA, 02554. 12. The NOI was assigned the Mass DEP Wetlands File Number SE 48-3155. Statement of Errors in the Reviewable Decision 13. On January 28, 2020, the Department issued a SOC, which approved the proposed northern extension of the existing geotubes and a portion of the southern extension subject to certain conditions. The SOC confirmed the homes protected by the Proposed Project are pre-1978 buildings, and thus are able to be protected by a coastal engineering structure ("CES"). In issuing the SOC, the Department further affirmed the Proposed Project met the applicable performance standards established for Coastal Beach and Coastal Bank Resource Areas. SBPF concurs with inherent determinations in the SOC issued by the Department, and accepts many of the Special Conditions included in the SOC issued by the Department. 14. SBPF appeals Special Conditions Nos. 9, 13 and 15, with regard to certain monitoring and mitigation requirements, as described in further detail below. 15. SBPF also appeals Special Condition Number 1 as it relates to 51A, 51B and 53 Baxter Road, as those properties were not included as part of the Proposed Project described in NOI or Denial 00C. -3- A. The Department Erred in the Issuance of Special Condition No. 9. 16. The Department erred in its issuance of Special Condition No. 9, which requires quarterly monitoring for the first three (3) years. The Department further provides that following three (3) years of quarterly surveys, SBPF may request the Department to reassess the need for quarterly beach profiles, and allows the Department to make further decisions on any changes to the monitoring program. 17. SBPF appeals this Special Condition because there is no indication of quantitative criteria that the Department will use in making any future and anticipated determinations that monitoring frequency can be relaxed under this SOC. 18. The ongoing and proposed sand mitigation that is currently being performed for the Existing Project and Proposed Project is essentially a beach nourishment activity, as confirmed by the Department on Page 1 of the SOC cover letter. Therefore, the Department's Beach Nourishment Guidelines (Beach Nourishment: MassDEP's Guide to Best Management Practices for Projects in Massachusetts, March 2007, "Beach Nourishment Guidelines") should be used as guidance. 19. In particular, the Beach Nourishment Guidelines provide that a qualified surveyor or engineering contractor should undertake additional post-construction monitoring, and that a number of surveys should be performed during the first year following construction, including seasonally. After the first year, the beach nourishment transects can be monitored annually. 20. The Beach Nourishment Guidelines further provide that monitoring reports are typically prepared after the first year of complete data evaluation, and bi-annually thereafter. These reports should summarize all data collected, including general information regarding the -4- wave climate and storm activity, changes in sand volume over time, and measured shoreline changes. This information can then be used to evaluate performance, assess any adverse environmental impacts, and estimate future re-nourishment requirements. 21. SBPF contends that the bi-annual monitoring proposed in the NOI satisfies the Beach Nourishment Guidelines, and further would have no adverse effect on the associated resource areas. Therefore, quarterly monitoring as presently required in the SOC is unnecessary and unfounded given the significant surrey monitoring data already presented for the DEP and NCC associated with the on-going Existing Project monitoring efforts. B. The Department Erred in the Issuance of Special Condition No. 13. 22. Special Condition No. 13 provides that sand mitigation shall be at a rate of 22 cubic yards per linear foot (cy/lf) per year in accordance with a particular schedule, following the same condition in the Existing Conditions approval. 23. The requirement in Special Condition No. 13 of 22 cy/lf of sand annually is approximately two and one half (2.5) times the length weighted average volume of sand contributed annually off the Coastal Bank, and therefore is excessive. Monitoring data associated with the Existing Project shows clear evidence that the required 22cy/lf is excessive, and that an adaptive sand management plan as presented in the NOI for this project should have been approved as part of the Department's SOC. 24. Additionally, Special Condition No. 13(e) provides that following three (3) years of mitigation at a rate of 22 cy/lf per year, SBPF may request the Department to reassess the rate of sand mitigation, and a final decision on any changes to the mitigation sand volume rests with the Department. -5- 25. While SBPF appreciates that this decision to re-visit the mitigation rate is with the Department, SBPF believes there should be some indication of quantitative criteria that the Department can use in making any future determination on this issue in order to allow for a fair adjustment of sand volume. Without a detailed standard of review, this conditioning as drafted places SBPF in an unknown realm on how and when an adaptive sand management program would ever be initiated. C. The Department Erred in the Issuance of Special Condition No. 15. 26. Special Condition No. 15(d) addresses "excessive loss in updrift or downdrift beach cross section that can be attributed to the project." 27. However, again, there is no quantitative review criteria provided in this conditioning to allow the Department to adequately measure "excessive loss" that can be "attributed to the Project." 28. The language in this Condition is too vague as it simply provides that "if the quarterly monitoring program identifies excessive loss to the adjacent shoreline (compared to historical data) that may be attributable to the project, then SBPF shall contact the Department and the NCC within 30 days of the quarterly survey." 29. SBPF maintains that there must be objective criteria demonstrating what distance from the ends of the Project would be reviewed to determine what excessive loss "may be attributed to the project." D. Revisions to the Above-Described Special Conditions Would Not Adversely Affect the Associated Resource Areas. 30. The minor design changes in the NOI between the Existing Project and the Proposed Project, and the revisions to the monitoring and maintenance programs, were informed by monitoring over six (6) storms seasons, and therefore, the Proposed Project is based on -6- coastal science, engineering modelling and design, and six (6) years of monitoring data. Therefore, the above-proposed revisions to the Special Conditions in the SOC will not adversely affect the associated Resource Areas. 31. First, with regard to Land Under the Ocean ("LUO"), 310 CMR 10.25, ongoing benthic monitoring in the LUO offshore of the Existing Project, as required by the Existing 00C (SE48-28240), has been performed to determine if indirect alteration of LUO has occurred from sand contributed off the sand template. Results of monitoring to date documents that there has been no adverse effect to the LUO from the Existing Project. Monitoring results were presented to the NCC during its hearing process. As there has been no adverse effect to the LUO from the Existing Project, SBPF maintains that there will be no alteration of LUO from the Proposed Project. 32. Second, with regard to Coastal Bank, 310 CMR 10.30, the purpose of the Existing and Proposed Projects is to protect the stability of the Coastal Bank, and the sand mitigation (beach nourishment) is proposed to continue to provide a sediment source for downdrift coastal landforms. Sand mitigation and shoreline monitoring are proposed to be conducted to ensure that the existing Coastal Bank face is stabilized and downdrift beaches are not impacted. 33. Third, the monitoring and sand mitigation requirements will not adversely affect Coastal Beach, 310 CMR 10.27, because the Proposed Project provides sand mitigation of compatible sand grain size contribute sand to the littoral drift system to maintain downdrift coastal landforms. To date and going forward, SBPF reviews sand samples for compatibility and submits this the NCC for review before the sand is placed on the template. -7- 34. Fourth, the Proposed Project will not adversely affect Coastal Dune, because the Proposed Project will be built southward to a point north of the existing Coastal Dune at the southerly limit of the Proposed Project. The actual southern limit will be defined in the field at the time of construction to avoid the Coastal Dune. E. The SOC Improperly addresses Lots 51A, 51B, and 53, Which Were Not the Subject Matter of the NOI or the 00C, and Therefore Such References Should be Stricken. 35. Special Condition No. 1 purportedly denies the proposed installation of geotubes along Lots 51A, 51B, and 53, where the Department describes that area as where a Coastal Dune fronting the toe of the Coastal Bank. However, the NOI for the Proposed Project did not include Lots 51A, 51B, and 53 as part of the extension of the geotubes, which cover Lots 59-119. Therefore, a decision regarding these lots is prejudicial to their owners, and should be stricken from the SOC. While the geotube returns extend to Lot 55, the proposed geotubes end at Lot 59. -8- WHEREFORE, SBPF respectfully requests that the Commissioner partially vacate and/or revise Special Conditions No. 1, 9, 13, and 15 of the Department's Superseding Order of Conditions.

Theoharides Secretary JAN 2 8 2020 RE: NANTUCKET—Wetlands DEP File No. SE 48-3115 Superseding Order of Conditions 59-119 Baxter Road Martin Suuberg Commissioner Following an in-depth review of the above-referenced file and in accordance with Massachusetts General Laws, Chapter 131, Section 40, the Department of Environmental Protection has issued the enclosed Superseding Order of Conditions (SOC). This Order approves the proposed northern extension to the existing Geotube and a portion of the southern extension subject to certain conditions. The Department has determined that the project area is significant to the statutory interests of flood control, storm damage prevention and the protection of wildlife habitat. The Notice of Intent (NOI) was jointly filed by the Siasconset Beach Preservation Fund (SBPF) and the Town of Nantucket. The Town owns the beach in the project area. The project proposes an approximately 767 linear foot Geotube extension to the north and an approximately 1,916 linear foot Geotube extension to the south, smaller geotextile returns, planting of vegetation on the face of the coastal bank, and ongoing mitigation (beach nourishment) and monitoring of project performance. As shown on the referenced plans, the proposed design incorporates 4 tiers of Geotubes. The project area currently contains three to four tiers of Geotubes with a total length of approximately 947 feet. The Department has determined that the coastal bank (Sconset Bluff) acts both as a sediment source and as a vertical buffer to elevated storm waters. The Wetland Regulations at 310 CMR 10.30(3) provides, in part, that a coastal engineering structure "shall be permitted" when required to protect buildings constructed prior to 1978 from storm damage. The expanded project would protect 13 pre-1978 homes in the southern extension and 3 pre-1978 homes in the northern extension. All of the homes on the ocean-side of Baxter Road in the project area are pre-1978 buildings. The project area also includes 2 (vacant) gap lots at 85 and 107/107A Baxter Road. In the Department's judgment, the applicant has demonstrated the need to provide a contiguous Geotube system across the gap lots that can effectively protect pre- 1978 homes in the area, including pre-1978 homes on the landward side of Baxter Road. As a This information is available in alternate format. Call Michelle Waters-Ekanem, Diversity Director, at 617-292-5751. TDD# 1-866-539-7822 or 1-617-574-6868 MassDEP Website: www.mass.govidep Printed on Recycled Paper 2 result, the Department has determined that the proposed Geotubes between Lots 115 and 63 meets the above-noted performance standard for Coastal Banks. The enclosed SOC denies the proposed installation of Geotubes at the southern end (Lots 61, 59, and 55) of the approximately 1,916 linear foot southern Geotube extension. The coastal bank is more stable in the area south of lot 63 with extensive vegetation on the face of the coastal bank compared to areas to the north. In addition, the homes on Lots 61 and 59 do not meet the applicant's proposed "imminent" danger criteria that dwellings within 40 feet of the top of the coastal bank need immediate protection from storm damage as discussed in the Notice of Project Change filed with MEPA. In fact, the homes on Lots 61 and 59 are 68 and 65 feet back from the top of the coastal bank, respectively. Further, it is not clear that the homes on Lots 61, 59, and 55 couldn't be relocated to the landward side of Baxter Road and away from the coastal bank. As a result, the Department has determined that the proposed Geotubes on Lots 61, 59 and 55 do not meet the performance standards for Coastal Banks at 310 CMR 10.30 (3). Specifically, the Department has determined that the proposed Geotubes are not required to prevent storm damage at this time and there may be feasible alternatives to a coastal engineering structure. In the case of Lots 61 and 59, relocation of homes to the landward side of Baxter Road may be a feasible alternative to a coastal engineering structure. The enclosed SOC also denies the proposed installation of Geotubes along the southern end of the proposed project area where a coastal dune fronts the toe of the coastal bank. In the area of Lots 55, 53, 51B and 51A, the coastal dune serves to protect the toe of the coastal bank from erosion, resulting in a dense vegetative cover on the face of the coastal bank. The applicant proposed the installation of Geotubes if and when the coastal dune erodes away and exposes the coastal bank to erosion. In the Department's opinion, the proposed Geotubes on Lots 55, 53, 51B and 51A are not required to prevent storm damage to homes at this time. As a result, the Department has determined that the proposed Geotubes in this area do not meet the performance standards for Coastal Banks at 310 CMR 10.30(3). In addition, the Department has determined that there may be feasible alternatives to a coastal engineering structure, such as building relocation to the landward side of Baxter Road. Please be advised that any future NOI must demonstrate that there are no feasible alternatives to the Geotubes such as relocation of threatened buildings, that the buildings are at risk of storm damage at the time of the application and that the Geotubes or an alternative coastal structure are necessary to prevent storm damage to pre-1978 buildings. The MEPA Certificate (EEA#15240) issued on September 20, 2019 by the Secretary of Energy and Environmental Affairs, directed the Department to address concerns with proposed changes to the applicant's mitigation plan and monitoring frequency. The applicant's revised mitigation plan is an adaptive sand mitigation plan that would change the fixed rate of 22 cubic yard per linear foot a year to a flexible rate of 8.8 cy/lf a year or a volume to fill a 22 cy/lf template, whichever is greater. Due to the apparent success of the current mitigation plan in maintaining a walkable beach seaward of the existing Geotubes and the substantial increase in project length, the Department's SOC will require the current mitigation volume of 22 cy/lf a year to remain for the expanded project. In addition, the applicant's revised monitoring plan would change the shoreline change analysis (beach profile) to semi-annual from the current quarterly requirement. Although the Department's Guide to Best Management Practices for 3 Beach Nourishment Projects recommends semi-annual monitoring, the Department believes that due to the substantial increase in project length and unique circumstances of the project, the current monitoring plan of quarterly shoreline change analysis will remain for the expanded project. Following 3 years of implementing the required mitigation and monitoring plans, the applicants may request the Department to re-assess these plans in accordance with the enclosed SOC. The Department is aware of recent enforcement action taken by the Nantucket Conservation Commission regarding the use of non-beach compatible nourishment material and the failure to submit beach monitoring reports. The Department supports the Commission's enforcement actions. Failure to provide clean, compatible sediment as mitigation and failure to submit timely quarterly monitoring reports could result in further enforcement action and constitute project failure in accordance with criteria in the enclosed SOC. In the opinion of the Department the reasons given here are sufficient to justify this SOC. However, the Department reserves the right, should there be further proceedings in this matter, to raise additional issues and present further evidence as may be appropriate.

SOC-NOI-AFTERJANO8 StormwaterRegs 2-2014 WPA Form 5 — Order of Conditions • Page 12 of 16 Formatted for Registry of Deeds Superseding Order of Conditions for Siasconset Beach Preservation Fund/Town of Nantucket, File No. SE 48-3115 Special Conditions: 1. This Superseding Order of Conditions (SOC) permits installation of an approximately 767 linear foot Geotube extension to the north and a portion of the approximately 1,916 linear foot proposed Geotube extension to the south in order to prevent storm damage to pre-1978 homes, installation of smaller geotextile returns on the ends of the Geotubes to prevent flanking and minimize end effects, planting of vegetation on the face of the coastal bank, and ongoing mitigation (beach nourishment) and monitoring. The proposed southern Geotube extension and smaller geotextile returns shall terminate at the southern boundary of Lot 63. Coir fiber roll returns may be installed on Lot 61 as needed. This SOC denies the proposed installation of Geotubes at the southem end (Lots 61, 59, and 55) of the approximately 1,916 linear foot southem Geotube extension. The Department has determined that the proposed Geotubes on Lots 61, 59 and 55 do not meet the performance standards for Coastal Banks at 310 CMR 10.30 (3). Specifically, the Department has determined that the proposed Geotubes are not required to prevent storm damage at this time, and there may be feasible alternatives to a coastal engineering structure. The SOC also denies the proposed installation of Geotubes along the southern end of the proposed project area where a coastal dune fronts the toe of the coastal bank (Lots 55, 53, 51B, and 51A). The Department has determined that the proposed Geotubes on Lots 55, 53, 51B, and 51A do not meet the performance standards for Coastal Banks at 310 CMR 10.30 (3). Specifically, the Department has determined that the proposed Geotubes are not required to prevent storm damage at this time, and there may be feasible alternatives to a coastal engineering structure. 2. Notice of work commencement shall be given to the Nantucket Conservation Commission (NCC) and the Department at least 48 hours prior to the commencement of work. 3. Prior to installation of the Geotube extensions on lots 63-87 and 105-119 and retums, the proponents shall ascertain the width of the beach seaward of the existing Geotubes to determine whether there is sufficient beach width landward of mean high water (MHW) to conduct activities associated with the installation of the Geotubes and retums in accordance with the proposed construction methodology. In the event the beach is not sufficiently wide to allow Geotube installation in accordance with the proposed construction methodology, the proponents shall submit an altemative construction methodology for the Departments review and approval. 4. Prior to installation of the Geotube extensions on lots 63-87 and 105-119 and returns, the proponents shall mark the MHW line with surveyed stakes, obtain Global Positioning System (GPS) coordinates along the MHW line and shall maintain the stakes throughout the duration of construction. GPS coordinates shall be submitted to the Department and the NCC within 2 weeks of collection. 5. The staked position of the MHW line shall serve as a limit of work throughout the duration of construction. No work is allowed seaward of the MHW line under this SOC. 6. Access to the beach shall be from Hoick's Hollow north of the project area. A gate or similar structure shall be installed to control vehicular access to the beach at the Hoick's Hollow access point. 7. All sand used to fill and cover the Geotubes shall be imported from an off-site source and shall be clean sediment compatible in terms of grain size with the existing beach sediments. The Department reserves the right to request the grain size analysis of sediments used for beach nourishment. 8. As proposed, the smaller geotextile returns shall be installed in a manner to form closure between the existing Geotubes and the adjacent bluff without excavation into the coastal bank. All beach sand excavated to install the retums shall remain on the beach and shall be used to restore the beach following construction. 9. The ongoing beach monitoring/survey program currently conducted by the Woods Hole Group shall continue. The monitoring program shall be conducted on a quarterly basis for the first 3 years in order to timely identify beach impacts that may be attributable to the Geotubes and to assess whether the mitigation program is adequate. Beach profiles shall be taken on a quarterly basis along the 24 proposed profile lines. Beach profiles shall be taken from the toe of the coastal bank, coastal dune or Geotube seaward to the —5 foot MLW contour. SOC-NOI-AFTERJANO8 StormwaterRegs 2-2014 WPA Form 5 — Order of Conditions • Page 13 of 16 Formatted for Registry of Deeds Beach profile data and analysis shall be submitted to the Department and the NCC within 30 days of completion of the quarterly survey. Following 3 years of quarterly surveys, the proponents may request the Department to re- assess the need for quarterly beach profiles. Such a request shall be accompanied with a report that provides reasonable justification for a reduced survey schedule. The final decision on any changes to the monitoring program rests with the Department. 10. As proposed, offshore (bathymetric) profiles shall be taken on an annual basis. Offshore profiles shall be taken out to the —25 foot to -35 foot MLW92 contour or 2,000 to 3,000 feet offshore, whichever is less. The bathymetric survey transects shall overlap the beach profiles (no gaps) and the tide gage used during the survey shall be surveyed into the same datum as the beach profiles. Bathymetry profile data and analysis shall be submitted to the Department and NCC within 30 days of completion of the survey. 11. An annual assessment report summarizing the beach and bathymetric profile monitoring program shall be submitted to the Department and the NCC each year. This report shall, at a minimum, provide an analysis of beach changes including volumetric changes between surveyed transects, assess location of the top of coastal bank and estimate bank retreat over the previous 12 months and calculate bank volume loss in the project area and 300 feet to the north and south. In addition, the report shall recommend any necessary changes to the beach nourishment program for the Departments review and approval. 12. Post-Storm monitoring reports shall be submitted following all significant storms. A storm will be considered "significant" if there are sustained winds over 40 mph over at least a 6 hour period according to NOAA's National Climate Data Center, Nantucket Memorial Airport station. The post-storm monitoring report shall include, at a minimum, photo-documentation of the condition of the Geotubes and nourishment sand within the project area, estimate of the volume of sand lost from the sand template, estimate of the beach level in front of the Geotubes to determine if replenishment is needed, estimate of volume of sand (if necessary) and schedule for delivery, identification of the location of any exposed geotextile or of any repair required to the geotextile, and visual observation of the ends of the Geotubes to determine if flanking is occurring. Such reports shall be submitted to the Department and the NCC as soon as possible following all significant storms but no later than 7 days from the end of the storm. 13. Sand mitigation shall be at a rate of 22 cubic yards per linear foot (cy/lf) per year in accordance with the following schedule for the first 3 years: a. Provide initial cover of 22 cy/If during and/or immediately following construction of the Geotube extensions and returns. b. Annually in April: Provide additional sand and/or adjust the existing template to obtain a minimum two foot cover over the Geotubes to protect them from UV degradation. The volume of any sand placed in April shall be recorded and counted towards the annual 22 cy/If requirement. c. Annually in September-November: Place an additional volume of sand, to ensure a substantial portion of the sand template volume (10-15 cy/lf) is available at the onset of the winter storm season. Throughout the winter, place additional sand on an as-needed basis, in accordance with the replenishment trigger in the Milone & MacBroom's November 12, 2013 letter (i.e., if half the vertical height of the lowest Geotube is exposed, place a minimum of 2 cy/lf). If the balance of the 22 cy/lf volume is not placed in its entirety before March 1, the balance of the sand will be placed by March 31. d. Delivery tickets from sand supplier shall be provided annually to the Department and the NCC to document the total volume of sand provided on a yearly basis. e. Following 3 years of mitigation at a rate of 22 cubic yards per linear foot per year, the proponents may request the Department to re-assess the rate of sand mitigation. Such a request shall be accompanied with a report that provides reasonable justification for a modified mitigation rate. The final decision on any changes to the monitoring program rests with the Department. SOC-NOI-AFTERJANO8 StormwaterRegs 2-2014 WPA Form 5 — Order of Conditions • Page 14 of 16 Formatted for Registry of Deeds 14. If there is not adequate space to provide the entire mitigation volume within the project area footprint, then any remaining sand shall be placed in a berm at the toe of the coastal bank or dune and landward of MHW within 300 feet of the ends of the Geotubes. Any additional sand placed outside of the project area shall be equally distributed to the areas north and south of the project area. 15. Failure of the Siasconset Beach Preservation Fund (SBPF) to conduct the actions set out in subsections (a) to (e) herein shall constitute a project failure ("failure criteria") if not performed within the stipulated timeframes or within such other reasonable periods of time as determined by the Department in the event of a delay in performance outside the control of SBPF, or if there are unmitigated adverse impacts from the project. The "failure criteria" include: a. Failure to provide the sand mitigation as required in Special Conditions #s 7, 13, and 14. b. Failure to conduct the shoreline monitoring and post-storm monitoring as required in Special Conditions #s 9 through 12. c. Failure to repair and/or replace damaged geotextile tubes in a timely manner. If repair or replacement cannot be accomplished within 30 days from the date of the damage, SBPF shall notify the Department and the NCC before 30 days have elapsed and provide a repair schedule for Department review and approval. d. Excessive loss in updrift or downdrift beach cross section that can be attributed to the project. If the quarterly monitoring program identifies excessive loss to the adjacent shoreline (compared to historical data) that may be attributable to the project, then SBPF shall contact the Department and the NCC within 30 days of the completion of the quarterly survey. Upon notice, the Department shall commence an information gathering and consultation process to evaluate whether the shoreline loss is a result of the project. Following the conclusion of the evaluation the Department shall determine an appropriate course of action to address the beach loss associated with the project which may include, but is not limited to, changes to the placement of the sand template, an increase in the volume of sand mitigation, or project removal if impacts cannot be effectively mitigated. SBPF shall implement the Department's required mitigation within 30 days of receipt of written notification from the Department. e. Failure to maintain adequate beach width in front of the Geotubes. If the beach in the project area erodes so that the position of MHW migrates landward to the seaward edge of the second tier of geotextile tubes for any two consecutive quarterly surveys, then within 30 days of completion of the second quarterly survey SBPF shall contact the Department and the NCC. Upon notice, the Department shall commence an information gathering and consultation process. Following the conclusion of the evaluation, the Department shall determine an appropriate course of action which may include, but is not limited to, changes to the placement of the sand template, an increase in the volume of sand mitigation, or Geotube removal if impacts cannot be effectively mitigated. SBPF shall implement the Department's required mitigation within 30 days of receipt of written notification from the Department. 16. In the event certain failure criteria have been met and the Department orders Geotube removal, then the geotextile fabric shall be cut, removed and properly disposed of. Following removal of the geotextile fabric, sand from the Geotubes shall be spread along the beach landward of MHW. SBPF and the Town shall maintain the escrow fund in place as of the date of this SOC to ensure the availability of funds to pay for the removal of the Geotubes. Lack of adequate funds in the escrow account shall not negate SBPF's requirement for Geotube removal. 17. The SBPF shall be responsible for the retrieval and proper disposal of all geotextile products associated with this project in the event wave action and erosion destroys or otherwise causes damage to the Geotube system. 18. As proposed, exposed areas on the face of the coastal bank, other than the upper 5-7 feet between lots 109 and 115 Baxter Road, may be stabilized using biodegradable erosion control blankets planted with beach grass and/or SOC-NOI-AFTERJANO6 StormwaterRegs 2-2014 WPA Form 5 — Order of Conditions • Page 15 of 16 Formatted for Registry of Deeds other indigenous coastal vegetation. The erosion control blankets and plantings shall be installed with hand tools with workers repelling down the bank face. 19. All construction refuse shall be removed from the site and disposed of in compliance with all local, State, and Federal laws and regulations. 20. Upon completion of the proposed installation of the North and South Geotube extensions and retums, a partial Certificate of Compliance shall be requested in accordance with General Condition No. 11, and under the provisions of 310 CMR 10.05 (9)(d). A statement from a Professional Engineer or a Professional Land Surveyor registered in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts certifying compliance with the plans and conditions of this Order shall accompany the request for a partial Certificate of Compliance. 21. A portion of the proposed project is located within mapped Priority and Estimated Habitat of state-protected rare species by the Natural Heritage and Endangered Species Program of the Division of Fisheries and Wildlife (Division). As such, the proponent must adhere to the following conditions: a. All work, including all access locations (e.g. Hoicks Hollow), located within Priority Habitat is prohibited during the period April 1 — August 31, unless a monitoring and protection plan for state-listed species has been approved in writing by the Division. b.

The Commission finds that areas subject to regulation are land under the ocean coastal beach, coastal dune, coastal bank, land subject to coastal storm flowage and their associated buffer zones. 2. The Commission finds that the property is partially located within Priority Habitat of Rare Species or Estimated Habitat of Rare Wildlife as defined by the Massachusetts Natural Heritage and Endangered Species Program. 3. The Commission fmds that the geotube system is a coastal engineering structure. Siasconset Beach Preservation Fund, SE48-3115; 59-119 Baxter Road revetment, seawall, groin or other coastal engineering structure shall be permitted on such a coastal bank except that such a coastal engineering structure shall be permitted when required to prevent storm damage to buildings constructed prior to the effective date of 310 CMR 10.21 through 10.37 (August 10, 1978), including reconstructions of such buildings subsequent to the effective date of 310 CMR 10.21 through 10.37, provided that the following requirements are met: a. A coastal engineering structure or a modification thereto shall be designed and constructed as to minimize, using best available measures, adverse effects on adjacent or nearby coastal beaches due to changes in wave action, and b. The applicant demonstrates that no method of protecting the building other than the proposed coastal engineering structure is feasible. c. Protective planting designed to reduce erosion may be permitted. 14. The Commission finds that the applicant has not met the burden of proof to demonstrate compliance with 310 CMR 10.30 (4) that any project on a coastal bank or within 100 feet landward of the top of a coastal bank, other than a structure permitted by 310 CMR 10.30(3), shall not have an adverse effect due to wave action on the movement of sediment from the coastal bank to coastal beaches or land subject to tidal action. 15. The Commission finds that the applicant has not met the burden of proof to demonstrate compliance with 310 CMR 10.30 (6) that any project on such a coastal bank or within 100 feet landward of the top of such coastal bank shall have no adverse effects on the stability of the coastal bank. 16. The Commission finds that the applicant has not met the burden of proof to demonstrate compliance with 310 CMR 10.30 (7) that bulkheads, revetments, seawalls, groins or other coastal engineering structures may be permitted on such a coastal bank except when such bank is significant to storm damage prevention or flood control because it supplies sediment to coastal beaches, coastal dunes and barrier beaches. The following findings pertain to the Town of Nantucket Wetlands Protection Bylaw (Chapter 136) 17. The Commission finds that the coastal beach is significant to the protection of the following interests: flood control, erosion control, storm damage prevention, fisheries, shellfish, wildlife, recreation and wetland scenic views. 18. The Commission finds that the coastal dune is significant to the protection of the following interests: flood control, erosion control, storm damage prevention, prevention of pollution, wildlife, and wetland scenic views. 19. The Commission finds that the coastal bank is significant to the protection of the following interests: flood control, erosion control, storm damage prevention, wildlife, and wetland scenic views. 20. The Commission finds that land subject to coastal storm flowage is significant to the protection of the following interests: flood control, erosion control, storm damage prevention, water quality, erosion and sediment control, and wildlife. 21. Pursuant to Section 2.02B(1) of the Nantucket Wetlands Protection Regulations the provisions of Section 2.01B(1-8)(Land Under the Ocean) shall apply to coastal beaches and tidal flats. Therefore the Commission finds that the applicant has not met the burden of proof to demonstrate compliance with Section 2.01B(7) that no new bulkheads or coastal engineering structures shall be permitted to Siasconset Beach Preservation Fund, SE48-3115; 59-119 Baxter Road protect structures constructed or substantially improved after 8/78. Bulkheads may be rebuilt only if the Commission determines there is no environmentally better way to control an erosion problem, including in appropriate cases the moving of the threatened building. Other coastal engineering structures may be permitted only upon a clear showing that no other alternative exists to protect a structure built prior to 9/78, but not substantially improved, from imminent danger. 22. Pursuant to Section 2.02B(1) of the Nantucket Wetlands Protection Regulations the provisions of Section 2.01B(1-8)(Land Under the Ocean) shall apply to coastal beaches and tidal flats. Therefore the Commission finds that the applicant has not met the burden of proof to demonstrate compliance with Section 2.01B(8) that water dependent projects shall be designed and performed so as to cause no adverse effects on wildlife, erosion control, marine fisheries, shellfish beds, storm damage prevention, flood control and recreation. 23. The Commission finds that the applicant has not met the burden of proof to demonstrate compliance with Section 2.02B(2) that new bulkheads or coastal engineering structures shall be permitted to protect structures constructed, or substantially improved, after 8/78. Bulkheads may be rebuilt only if the Commission determines there is no environmentally better way to control an erosion problem, including in appropriate cases the moving of the threatened building. Other coastal engineering structures may be permitted only upon a clear showing that no other alternative exists to protect a structure built prior to 9/78, but not substantially improved, from imminent danger. 24. The Commission finds that the applicant has not met the burden of proof to demonstrate compliance with Section 2.02B(4) that clean fill of compatible grain size may be used on a Coastal Beach but not on a Tidal Flat, only if the Commission authorizes its use, and only if such fill is to be used for a beach or dune nourishment project. All possible mitigation measures shall be taken, as determined by the Commission, to limit the adverse effects of the fill. 25. The Commission finds that the applicant has not met the burden of proof to demonstrate compliance with Section 2.03(B)(1) that no coastal revetments or coastal engineering structure of any type shall be constructed, rebuilt or repaired. 26. The Commission finds that the applicant has not met the burden of proof to demonstrate compliance with Section 2.03(B)(3) that no excavation or disturbance of vegetative cover shall be allowed on a coastal dune unless the area is completely restored, replanted and stabilized to its original form and volume. 27. The Commission finds that the applicant has not met the burden of proof to demonstrate compliance with Section 2.03(B)(4) that fill may be used only if the Commission authorizes its use and only if such fill is to be used for beach and dune nourishment projects. 28. The Commission finds that the applicant has not met the burden of proof to demonstrate compliance with Section 2.03(B)(6) that any activity allowed on a coastal dune or within 100 feet of a coastal dune shall be restricted to such activity that is determined by the Commission not to have any adverse effect on the dune by altering the ability of wind or waves to remove sand from or deposit sand on a dune; by disturbing vegetative cover in a manner sufficient to destabilize the dune; by causing any modification of the dune form and slope which would increase the potential for erosion, storm flood damage; by Siasconset Beach Preservation Fund, SE48-3115; 59-119 Baxter Road interfering with landward or lateral movement of the dune; or by causing the rate of sand removal to increase through man-made means or structures. 29. The Commission finds that the applicant has not met the burden of proof to demonstrate compliance with Section 2.05B(1) that new bulkheads or coastal engineering structures shall be permitted to protect structures constructed, or substantially improved, after 8/78 except for public infrastructures. Bulkheads and groins may be rebuilt only if the Commission determines there is no environmentally better way to control an erosion problem, including in appropriate cases the moving of the threatened buildings and/or public infrastructure. Other coastal engineering structures may be permitted only upon a clear showing that no other alternative exists to protect a structure that has not been substantially improved or public infrastructure built prior to 9/78, from imminent danger. 30. The Commission finds that the applicant has not met the burden of proof to demonstrate compliance with Section 2.05B(3) that all projects shall be restricted to an activity as determined by the Commission to have no adverse effect on bank height, bank stability, wildlife habitat, vegetation, wetland scenic view or the use of a bank as a sediment source. 31. The Commission finds that the applicant has not met the burden of proof to demonstrate compliance with Section 2.10B(1) that the work shall not reduce the ability of the land to absorb and contain flood waters, or to buffer inland areas from flooding and wave damage. Therefore, based on the referenced findings, the Nantucket Conservation Commission DENIES the project SE48-3115 for the Siasconset Beach Preservation Fund at 59-119 Baxter Road pursuant to the Massachusetts Wetlands Protection Act (MGL Chapter 131§40), Massachusetts Wetlands Protection Regulations (310CMR 10.00), the Town of Nantucket Wetlands Protection Bylaw (Chapter 136) and the Town of Nantucket Wetlands Protection Regulations. The Commission finds that the given information, historical site conditions and current site conditions that no conditions can be set for the project as proposed that would adequately protect the wetland resources and wetland interests protected by the Massachusetts Wetlands Protection Act and the Town of Nantucket Wetlands Protection Bylaw. Further the Commission finds that the applicant has not met the burden of proof required for the Nantucket Conservation Commission to grant a permit.
