RE: Planitzer residence
Dear Mr. Krupski:
As per your request I have visited the subject parcel to asses the ecological conditions at the pond
where restoration activities are proposed. The following observations are based on my site visit
on November 20, 1996.
Water level, soils and vegetation indicate that this pond is undisturbed with little or no impacts
from surrounding land use. The most obvious alteration of the landscape was the historic
construction of the driveway which isolated this pond from any tidal influence during storm surges
and other high water events. Other than this alteration which has actually prevented common
reed from overtaking the pond, the system is in an almost pristine natural state. Native wetland
vegetation can be found in the pond in the form of a bog mat and around the pond as a
shrub/scrub fringe. A partial list of species identified in and around the pond include water willow
(Decodon verticillatus), sweet pepper bush ( Clethra alnifolia), red maple (Acer rubrum), sensitive
fern ( Onoclea sensisbilis), jewelweed (Impatiens capansis) and sedge (Carex spp).
If you have any additional questions about this site please feel free to contact me at my office at
852-8660.
