PUBLIC HEARING A. Notice of Intent 1. Town & County of Nantucket — Baxter Rd btw 87 & 106 Baxter Rd (Baxter Rd Layout) SE48 -2733 Sitting Steinauer, Oktay, Bennett, Glowacki, Lafarge, Erisman, LaFleur Recused None Documentation Supporting documents and plans. Representative Arthur D. Gasbarro, Blackwell and Associates Inc. — Submitted a letter addressing comments made at the last hearing. The site before them tonight is based upon an update survey showing the coastal bank and shows the 25 -foot setback as well as the exact measurements of each well. Southerly most drainage system was changed based upon previous comments: added a 4" over flow pipe up to divert water into a catch basin. Added elevations along the profiles of both the proposed systems and the strata. The infiltration system is above the static groundwater elevation. Reviewed the net benefits of the systems. In regards to the vegetated wetlands, he looked at the data from old watering wells; but they don't address the wetlands. Would need an expert in the area to look at the wetlands for changes in vegetation and hydrology. There has been a request to look at the overall contributing watershed; treating the water and putting it into the ground should have a minimal affect on the wetlands. Kara Buzanoski, Director department of Public Works Public Cormac Collier, Executive Director Nantucket Land Council D Anne Atherton Discussion Oktay — Concerned about a hole being punched into the clay layer and flowing out of the perched wetland. Glowacki — Asked if there was anything in the original plan that does not comply with the performance standard. Oktay — They have taken actions to show that the wetlands won't be drained, which is not in compliance. Discussion about whether or not there is a need for a test well. Oktay — Can condition this to have a 6" PVP pipe in the wetland to measure the water level. Lafarge — Asked if the wetlands have all been flagged. Gasbarro — Yes. Lafarge — Asked if this had been applied for as an emergency road repair; said some had. Collier —The soil boring in relation to actual infiltration is almost 200 feet from one transect unit and 500 from another so it is not an accurate reflection of infiltration. Located the existing water wells, the readings from which are 6 to 7 feet not 9 feet. Need soil boring information from exactly where the infiltration unit will go. The actual work within the 100 -foot buffer is not fully indicated to include a Page 1 of 8 Minutes for f anuary 21, 2015, adopted Feb. 4 soil berm. In terms of the wetland itself, on the northerly wetland it is within 5 feet of the road layout; the plan shows 15 feet. Around the utility pole, there are sensitive plants. He would ask the Town to redo the delineations to what they actually are. In terms of the exemption, normally applications with storm water within 100 feet of a wetlands, they have to adhere to the storm -water management policy. He contends this is new construction, not an emergency repair. Gasbarro — He will double check to ensure it meets all the storm water management requisites; he believes it does. Doesn't see a lot of other options for moving and treating run off that is causing damage to the road, private property, and the bluff. Feels this is the storm -water management plan and that the system meets the standards. This is clearly and emergency situation; there is damage happening from run -off from a public road onto private property using best management practices. The earth berm will be just tall enough to keep water from going off the road; sees no sense in micro- measuring the height of the berm will be. Asked the board to close the hearing. Atherton — has a comment and question about the context of this application. The BOS has asked the parties to come together in settlement talks having to do with emergency installation of the geo- tubes. This application for the drainage system involves the same parry, the same property, and the same issue. Given that, she wonders if it would come within the discussion about the geo -tube construction. Oktay — Normally when they are installing storm water treatment for impervious surface, typically they apply for a storm water permit. Staff — The storm water permits are different. This is a question of applying towards the DEP storm water policy; there are certain exemptions that don't require those and DEP provides comments for where they request information. The storm water policy addresses correct size, removal of solids, and separation. They are still required to meet all the performance standards. Oktay — She feels that this is an emergency road repair. She also wants the wetlands properly delineated. Glowacki — Asked if there are any places this does not meet the standards. Oktay — Work within 25 feet of a wetland requires a waiver. Cohen — There is an approved and binding Request for Determination of Applicability delineating the wetlands; the board can precondition the certification of those wetlands. Nothing in that data will change this application. Collier — If this goes forward without adequately determining the location of the clay layer, the wetlands will be impacted. Glowacki — If nothing is done and erosion continues, the wetland will not exist. Thinks the discussion is drifting from that linear thinking. Steinauer — There are questions about this and they might not affect the approval of this project. This infiltration is a proposal to do something this board has never seen before. Glowacki — That can be easily conditioned and move on. Oktay — Doesn't think it will change the design; but she can't think of another application where the whole plan depends on the location of the wetlands. We have never permitted with delineation to be done after the approval. The delay is to have a plan that accurately depicts what is on the ground. Gasbarro — Asked for a continuation to get the requested information. Steinauer — Asked for a sense of the commission on the type of Order of Conditions staff should prepare. Gasbarro — Would not be able to come back in 2 weeks with a deep soil boring; might be able to do a shallow. Collier — Suggested a strong condition that during the pre- construction analysis that then they do an analysis of the stratification of the soil and the conditions state that if the clay layer is being punched, work stops. Staff could ask if this is emergency road repair and determine whether or not this does in fact falls under storm water management. Gasbarro — Pointed out that water from the east side going over the bank will be redirected into the wetland. Consensus — Majority of the board will not deny the plan. Staff Staff - This is a separate application. Reminded the board that the representative asked for a continuance and the board was going to consider possible action. The board is now spinning its wheels. Motion Motion to Close.

Haines, Haines Hydrogeologic Consulting — For a swimming pool and cabana; the wetland boundary has been flagged, reviewed, and readjusted. The plans reflect that change; still meets the 50 -foot setback. Would like to maintain the retaining wall with the split -rail fence on top for use as the pool fence. The house was approved in 2000 with a septic system within 100 feet of the wetlands; instead of putting in the septic, they connected to Town sewer. There is a second retaining wall that was not approved; it has been added to the plan and is slightly within the 50 -foot buffer. There are invasive species; explained the removal process. There is a sump pump creating standing water; that water will be redirected to a leech facility outside the 25 -foot buffer. Asking for a waiver for the 2 -foot separation. Asking for temporary dewatering; explained where that water will be directed; will need a waiver. Asking for a waiver for net benefit due to being on sewer and removal of invasive species. Public Bruce Perry, Laurentide Environmental, LLC Discussion (5:07) Bennett — Asked if the basement entrance was part of the original plan. Haines — he doesn't know. Discussion about what might be the best way to remove the invasive species. Staff This can be conditioned as to best practice for removal. Have everything needed to close. Motion Motion to Close.

Representative Rachael Freeman, Nantucket Islands Land Bank — Property contains a coastal beach and the entire property is with land subject to coastal storm flowage. The proposal is to remove a single family dwelling and revegetate with coastal beach grass. On the beach, proposing two posts to tie up boats and split -rail fence along the south property line. Will use no more than 55 cubic yards of compatible fill. The beach grass will be planted in staggered rows 18 inches off center to match the existing vegetation. No fertilizer will be used. During the 151 season of growth, a silt fence will be used. Presently there is no plan to irrigate. Explained that two hand -dug posts would be placed to keep boats off the grassy area.

Representative Mark Rits, Site Design Engineering —There is an existing set of stone steps, walkway and wooden pier straddling the property line; those are to be moved onto the Land Bank portion abutting 158 Orange Street. Resource areas are a salt marsh and coastal bank. Public Eric Sevetsky, Nantucket Islands Land Bank, abutter Paul Santos, Nantucket Surveyors, for Nantucket Islands Land Bank Discussion (5:28) Steinauer — Where the walkway meets the pier is mostly dirt and should be cordoned off to allow it to revegetate. Rits — When there is a storm, junk comes in and buries that area. Erisman — Asked if there are any soil tests. It has been apparent to her that fertilizer has been used. Rits — No testing has been done; the land has been developed for a number of years. If there is noticeable evidence of fertilizer, he can inform the owner that it is not appropriate in this area. Sevetsky — The walkway to the dock and the dock have joint use between both properties. When the Land Bank purchased the property, there are easement issues on the dock. This is an effort to separate the situation. This is planned to be a park to be enjoyed in a non - boating manner so hardscaping will be to that end. Santos — There would be an elevated walk way. Rits — His clients work is in -kind replacement and shifting away from Land Bank property; it is a good will act to remove the other portion on Land Bank property; his client will replant that area per the wishes of the Land Bank. Steinauer — That could be approved through staff. Rits — Haven't heard from Massachusetts Natural Heritage; their area of jurisdiction runs through the dock. Bennett — Asked about the posts. Rits — They would be hand dug; might need to use a small sled skier outside the 25 -foot buffer and the rest hand addressed. Asked for a continuance to hear from Massachusetts Natural Heritage and work out a planting protocol. Staff There is an existing Chapter 91 license for the pier; that will have to be amended when it moves. If a public access component is added, they can come back and amend at that time. The Land Bank's intention is to provide a way for people to walk around their property. The direct impact to Chapter 91 is the relocation of the pier 4 feet. Motion Continued to 2/4/2015 without objection Vote N/A 10. *Baxter Road Property Owners - 85,87,91,93,97,99,101 & 105 Baxter Rd ( 49 ,48- 35,8;22,21,19,18,17,15)SE48 -2733 Sitting Steinauer, Oktay, Bennett, Glowacki, Lafarge, Erisman, LaFleur Recused None Documentation Supporting documents and plans. Representative Arthur D. Gasbarro, Blackwell and Associates Inc. — Application to vegetate the face of the coastal bank along Baxter Road with American Beach Grass. Reviewed the plan details. Will use jute netting on the slope and coir logs running parallel along the bank to stabilize the bank. Submitted photos at the table showing similar projects. Have requested a waiver for work in the resource area; believe it will be a net benefit and meets performance standards. Read the appropriate performance standards. Proposing a temporary irrigation system for use while plants grow. That would provide only enough water for the plants and not aggravate erosion. Public None Discussion (5:58) Lafarge — Asked what makes the sand compatible. Gasbarro — Explained how the soil would be tested and matched. There is a wide range of variability in sand /soil along the bank. Explained how the sand would be delivered along the bank to create a uniform surface upon which to work. Oktay — Would like to see a calculation on the amount of sand fill to be used. The fiber logs concern is the handout says the logs should not be used on steep slopes or where slides are possible. The jute netting, sand and plants will work. She fears the logs will roll off. Gasbarro — It needs to be done in areas above the geo- tubes. The handout says 4:1 and the sand fill will create a more gentle slope. All that will help stabilize the entire bank. Discussion about other options to stabilize the bank and clarification of this proposal and the logs. Glowacki — Cautioned against substituting "our" engineering for the applicants engineer. Erisman — She also has trouble on understanding how the logs will stay in place, would like a schematic. She is concerned with the statement that there will be no adverse impact. There will be impact by putting pit sand, basically a dead sand, onto a bluff that has microbes that feed the food chain. Steinauer —Have to keep in mind the ConCom areas of interest. Page 4of8 Minutes for f anuary21, 2015, adopted Feb. 4 Oktay — Asked how they will irrigate without causing the same problem they are having with run off. Gasbarro — Very limited water would be sprinkled from a hose head. A spray head off a surface hose would be attached to a post about '/2 way down the bank. Erisman — Asked about how many sprinklers would be needed over the face of the bluff. Gasbarro — He does not have that number. Added there is no way to hand water. Steinauer — It would be to their benefit to apply the least amount of water as possible. Gasbarro — The watering is to help the plants get established. The plants are delicate. Oktay — Asked about access. Gasbarro — Explained that the people doing the planting would use a measured rebar to poke a hole for the plug and the spacing between plants would be the length of the rebar. Bennett — Asked how far out toward the base the planting would go. Gasbarro — Not beyond the geotubes up to the flat toe at the top of the tube bank. He will add where the toe will be to the plans. Oktay — Would like to see a profile of the slope. Gasbarro — Further explained the extent of the planting toward the geotubes. Does not propose planting or fill on Town property. Glowacki —There are points where private property overlaps the top of the geotubes. Erisman — Pointed out that in a previous discussion, 8 feet of the bluff was supposed to remain natural for the nesting birds. Gasbarro — He did not specifically lay that out in this application; he will show that. Oktay — Asked about the length of the stakes and the angle to the slope Gasbarro — The stakes are 4 feet with the holes placed 90% to the angle to the slope. He will add a profile to the plan.
