CAC Local Waterfront Revitalization Program
5/17/88
Attending: Steve, Peter, Don, Dick, Frank & Valerie
General comments:
Beaches are created by erosion. Hard Structures prevent e,rosion of;
the bluff while increasing beach erosion.
The Town has a policy against Town taking of open space. It much
prefers to leave open space in the hands of Homeowner's associations.
Codes exist now to allow for the protection of the health & welfare
of the public. Perhaps we can use these to achieve our goals.
Board of Health is now requiring ISO' between well & Cesspool.
Valerie reported that a meeting with Szepatowski has been set for
IPM, 5/26/88, to ask how they plan to meet their contractual
obligations.
Next meeting is 5/31/88. CALL IF YOU CAN'T MAKE A MEETING!
Comments on specific sub area policies are on attached sheets.

The attenuation due to precipitation is a highly statistical phenom-
enon related to both time and location. The percentage of time that rain
exceeds a given rate is shown for eastern England, Haiphong, North
Vietnam, and three typical locations in the United States in Fig. 6-4; in'
[55, 384] similar data are given for oiher locations throughout the
world.

SUB-AREA
I. Development
Good definitions of bluff, top of bluff or edge of bluff,
wetlands are required. There is a good definition of wetlands
in the code, but the trustees and the DEe definitiun are
different.
Generally agreed that we should make some recommendation
regarding inclusion of wetlands in computations for density.
No specific recommendation. Valerie will explore wetlands
policy with the Town attorney. 3 members would like to see a
policy excluding wetlands from density computations within
boundary areas; Don favored a policy of negotiation.
Bd of Health determines well & cesspool locations and pools
may be approved near sensitive areas. There should be
consistency in rules & regulations of agencies involved in
per,it process.
Generally agredd we should make recommendation regarding
location of cesspools near sensitive areas.
Suggest the Town explore alternative cesspool systems for
problem situations.

7. Water Quality
Ground water
Suggested we require on-site containment of runof( for both
residential & commercial uses.
Suggested we survey. known existing problems and recommend
immediate corrections.
It was suggested that the Town not only test the creeks, but
that they determine the source of the pollution and require
corrections.
Discussed the Town require a test of existing cesspools to
certify proper functioning of the system. Could be done at
time of purchase, or as an on-going test, say every 2 or 3 years.
