  • Project Descriptions for July 10, 2019 Board of Trustees Meeting Clean
    Project Descriptions for July 10, 2019 Board of Trustees Meeting Clean Water Commitments Bourne CW-19-07 The project involves construction of a new 100,000 gpd package wastewater treatment facility with subsurface discharge on town-owned land. The plant is designed using MBR technology. A Groundwater Discharge Permit has been approved for the plant and discharge. Based on detailed site testing and groundwater modeling, treated effluent will move towards the Cape Cod Canal. Added capacity is needed to handle flows above the 200,000 gpd capacity owned by Bourne in the Wareham WWTF. That plant, where no added capacity is available for Bourne's use, discharges to the Agawam River. Existing sewer flows from a portion of Bourne's sewered area will be intercepted and re-directed to the new treatment plant, redirecting treated effluent away from the Agawam River. Fall River CW-18-38 The City of Fall River's WWTF is aging and requires rehabilitation/upgrade to maintain reliable operation and performance. Additionally, EPA has indicated its intent to include a nitrogen limit in the City's next NPDES permit. Mt. Hope Bay is listed as impaired; Fall River's wet weather discharges and operational SSOs contribute to its impairment. Recent air quality regulations (Title V) necessitated shut down of the WWTF incinerator. Liquid sludge is trucked off site for disposal, dramatically increasing disposal costs. Administrative facilities are ineffective and undersized for current needs. Site electrical and security issues will also be addressed. Norton CW-18-43 This project involves providing new sanitary sewers to reduce pollution caused from the failed and malfunctioning private onsite sewage disposal systems, and more specifically the already failed systems at the Woodland Meadows Elderly Housing development.

  • Preserve Cape Cod to Association
    Association to Preserve Cape Cod Association to Preserve Cape Cod, Inc. 2011 Annual Report P.O. Box 398, 3010 Main Street Barnstable, MA 02630 Never Forgotten & Still Making a Difference Maggie Geist retired as executive director of the Association to Preserve Cape Cod in 2011. For a dozen years, Maggie steered our organization over many challenges and established her reputation as both a passionate environmentalist and a creative businesswoman. Capewind, county government reform, the Cape Cod Water Resources Restoration Project, the Upper Cape Water Supply Reserve on 15,000 acres of the Massachusetts Military Reservation, the No Discharge Area designation for Cape Cod Bay and, most of all, clean water were all positively impacted by her proactive style. She is still working with APCC developing a regional wastewater plan. Maggie led APCC and lives her life by the creed instilled upon her by her mom: “Leave the world a better place than you found it.” In her honor, the board of directors established the Geist Internship. The Geist Internship is intended to be a perpetual fund established to permit APCC to help train the next generation of environmental scientists, planners, engineers and creative thinkers. Each summer APCC will hire a promising college student to work on a project to help preserve Cape Cod. The fund is over one third the way toward being a self-perpetuating dedicated fund for this purpose. Member generosity, especially from current and past board members, made this possible. Programs & Projects Marine Invasive Species Monitoring: Over the past decade, many non-native marine plants and animals have arrived in coastal waters, often out- competing local species.

    Official List of Public Waters New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services Water Division Dam Bureau 29 Hazen Drive PO Box 95 Concord, NH 03302-0095 (603) 271-3406 https://www.des.nh.gov NH Official List of Public Waters Revision Date October 9, 2020 Robert R. Scott, Commissioner Thomas E. O’Donovan, Division Director OFFICIAL LIST OF PUBLIC WATERS Published Pursuant to RSA 271:20 II (effective June 26, 1990) IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not use this list for determining water bodies that are subject to the Comprehensive Shoreland Protection Act (CSPA). The CSPA list is available on the NHDES website. Public waters in New Hampshire are prescribed by common law as great ponds (natural waterbodies of 10 acres or more in size), public rivers and streams, and tidal waters. These common law public waters are held by the State in trust for the people of New Hampshire. The State holds the land underlying great ponds and tidal waters (including tidal rivers) in trust for the people of New Hampshire. Generally, but with some exceptions, private property owners hold title to the land underlying freshwater rivers and streams, and the State has an easement over this land for public purposes. Several New Hampshire statutes further define public waters as including artificial impoundments 10 acres or more in size, solely for the purpose of applying specific statutes. Most artificial impoundments were created by the construction of a dam, but some were created by actions such as dredging or as a result of urbanization (usually due to the effect of road crossings obstructing flow and increased runoff from the surrounding area).
