Notice of Intent Application 10 Mayhew Lane Map 41, Parcel 443 Nantucket, MA

1. Introduction

On behalf of the Applicants, Julia P. and Gary M. Killian, LEC Environmental Consultants, Inc., (LEC) is submitting this Notice of Intent (NOI) Application for a proposed pool/patio and improvements to existing structures, driveway, and landscaping at 10 Mayhew Lane. Proposed work activities occur within the 100-foot Buffer Zone to Bordering Vegetated Wetlands (BVW) and an Isolated Vegetated Wetlands (IVW) protected under the Massachusetts Wetlands Protection Act (M.G.L., c. 131, s. 40), its implementing Regulations (310 CMR 10.00, collectively the “WPA”), and the Town of Nantucket Bylaw (Chapter 136) and Wetlands Protection Regulations (Bylaw). A Waiver is requested for the proposed pool within 50-foot Buffer Zone and two-foot separation to high groundwater.

The following NOI Application provides a description of the existing site conditions, Wetland Resource Areas, and proposed project designed to protect the interests and values of the Wetland Resource Areas enumerated within the above-referenced statutes. Details of the proposed project are depicted on the Proposed Site Plan prepared by Bracken Engineering, Inc., dated October 29, 2020 (Appendix C).

2. General Site Description

The 20,018± square foot subject parcel affords frontage off Mayhew Lane (north), west of New Lane and downtown. (Appendix A, Figures 1 and 2). Developed single-family residential properties occur to the east, south, and west. Mayhew Lane bounds the property to the north. BVW exists north of Mayhew Lane.

The site is currently improved by an existing single-family dwelling, surrounded by lawn/landscaped conditions. An existing cottage/garage occurs within the southeastern portion of the lot. An IVW occurs within the southwesterly portion of the subject parcel, surrounding by invasive Asiatic bittersweet (Celastrus orbiculata) entanglements and blackberry (Rubus allegheniensis).

2.1 Floodplain Designation

According to the June 9, 2014, Federal Emergency Management Agency Flood Insurance Rate Map for the Town of Nantucket (25019C0086G), the subject parcel is located within

Page 1 of 5 Notice of Intent Application 10 Mayhew Lane Map 41, Parcel 443 Nantucket, MA

Zone X, Areas determined to be outside the 0.2% annual chance flood (Appendix A, Figure 3).

2.2 Natural Heritage and Endangered Species Program Designation

According to the 14th Edition of the Massachusetts Natural Heritage Atlas (effective August 1, 2017) published by the Natural Heritage & Endangered Species Program (NHESP), the subject parcel is not located within an Estimated Habitat of Rare Wildlife or Priority Habitat of Rare Wildlife (Appendix A, Figure 4).

3. Wetland Boundary Determination Methodology

LEC conducted a site evaluation on March 3, 2020, to identify and characterize existing protectable Wetland Resource Areas located within or immediately abutting the site. The BVW and IVW boundaries were determined through observations of the existing plant communities, using the “fifty percent criteria” to determine dominance of wetland/upland vegetation, the interpretation of soil characteristics, and other indicators of hydrology, in accordance with the principals of DEP’s handbook, Delineating Bordering Vegetated Wetlands under the Massachusetts Wetlands Protection Act (March 1995), the Field Indicators for Identifying Hydric Soils in New England-Version 4, May 2017, and the criteria set forth in 310 CMR 10.55(2) and the Bylaw, specifically analyzing the depth of high groundwater within 18 inches of the ground surface.

Based on these methods, the boundaries of the on-site IVW (#’s 1-6) and BVW (A-C) north of Mayhew Lane were demarcated with sequentially numbered blaze orange surveyor’s tape with the words “LEC Resource Area Boundary” embossed in bold, black print. As survey-located by Bracken Engineering, Inc., the wetland flagging locations are depicted on the Proposed Site Plan (Appendix C). Field Data Forms (Appendix B) supporting the delineation have been included.

4. Wetland Resource Area Descriptions

On-site Wetland Resource Areas include BVW and IVW, as described below.

4.1 Bordering Vegetated Wetlands

Bordering Vegetated Wetlands (BVW) are defined in 310 CMR 10.55(2) as freshwater wetlands which border on creeks, rivers, streams, ponds, and lakes. In these areas soils

Page 2 of 5 Notice of Intent Application 10 Mayhew Lane Map 41, Parcel 443 Nantucket, MA

are saturated and/or inundated such that they support a predominance of wetland indicator plants. The boundary of BVW is the line within which 50% or more of the vegetational community consists of wetland indicator plants and saturated or inundated conditions exist.

The BVW north of Mayhew Lane is occupied by a cattail (Typha spp.) marsh with fringing scrub shrub wetland habitat containing arrowwood, highbush blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum), winterberry (Ilex verticillata), pussy willow (Salix discolor), Virginia rose (Rosa virginiana), multiflora rose (Rosa multiflora), and bush honeysuckle shrubs. The BVW between Mayhew Lane and Grove Lane (north) continues to the west and is part of a larger wetland system.

4.2 Isolated Vegetated (Freshwater) Wetland

A vegetated Freshwater Wetland is defined within Section 1.02 of the Nantucket Wetlands Protection Regulations as a wet meadow, freshwater marsh, swamp, bog, pond, lake, creek, or stream; an area of low topography where ground water, flowing water, standing surface water, or ice provides a significant part of the supporting substrate for a plant community for at least five months a year; characterized by emergent and submergent plant communities in inland waters; and/or where depth to high groundwater is within 18 inches of the ground surface, and/or exhibits hydric soil characteristics and includes that portion of any inland bank which touches any inland waters. Freshwater wetlands are not defined to include drainage facilities constructed to include wetland vegetation as treatment for stormwater runoff.

The 317± square foot on-site IVW is overgrown with encroaching invasive Asiatic bittersweet and blackberry. Minimal soft rush (Juncus effusus) and grass-leaved goldenrods (Euthamia graminifolia) occupy the interior portions of the IVW. The IVW currently offers limited wetland functions and values considering its small size, lack of vegetative diversity, encroaching invasive species, and geographic location surrounded by developed conditions.

5. Proposed Project

The Applicant is proposing the following as depicted on the Proposed Site Plan:

• 12’ x 20’ pool (5 feet deep) with surrounding dry laid stone patio;

• Driveway improvements, including a reconfigured/expanded brick driveway and walkway; Page 3 of 5 Notice of Intent Application 10 Mayhew Lane Map 41, Parcel 443 Nantucket, MA

• Structural Improvements, including an expanded front stoop, southerly deck expansions, new east side deck abutting relocated A/C units, and modification and removal of deck off the guest house/garage; and

• Landscaping improvements.

New structural improvements identified above are all located outside of the 50-foot Buffer Zone to the BVW and IVW. No aspect of the project is proposed within the 25- foot Buffer Zone as defined by the erosion control barriers depicted on the Proposed Site Plan. The proposed pool is located within the 50-foot Buffer Zone. A Waiver is consequently requested, as below, and the Applicants are proposing mitigation to restore and enhance the IVW and associated 25-foot Buffer Zone.

6. Waiver Request

The Applicant respectfully requests a Waiver for the proposed pool within the 50-foot Buffer Zone and separation to high groundwater, and restoration of the IVW and associated 25-foot Buffer Zone, in accordance with Section 1.03 F.3. a) & c) of the Nantucket Wetlands Protection Regulations.

Alternative locations for the proposed pool were explored during design planning. The existing lawn area west of the house, outside of the 50-foot Buffer Zone to the IVW (south) and BVW (north), is not viable due to the 30-foot front yard zoning setback. There are no viable locations outside of the 50-foot Buffer Zone on the subject property to site the pool. However, as stated above, the 317± s.f. IVW provides diminished functions and values due to its small size, lack of vegetative diversity, encroaching invasive species, and geographic location surrounded by developed conditions.

The proposed 12’ x 20’ pool (5 feet deep) within the existing lawn area will not result in an adverse impact on the IVW or its limited interests. A soil boring was conducted the week of October 19, 2020. Actual high groundwater was documented at 74 inches deep. The five-foot-deep pool has been designed to avoid encroachment into the observed groundwater. Mottles were observed above 74 inches; however, it is unclear whether groundwater fluctuates any higher for any extended period of time. The Waiver has therefore been conservatively requested, if needed. Should any dewatering be required, excess water will be pumped to a DirtBag™ encircled by straw bales within the lawn area.

Page 4 of 5 Notice of Intent Application 10 Mayhew Lane Map 41, Parcel 443 Nantucket, MA

Under existing conditions, 470± s.f. of the 25-foot Buffer Zone is occupied by lawn, while the remaining vegetated areas (2,493± s.f.) are overgrown with invasive Asiatic bittersweet entanglements and blackberry (see photo). The IVW does not currently provide significant wildlife habitat value.

The Applicant is proposing to restore and enhance the IVW and 25-foot Buffer Zone, including the 470± s.f. of lawn area. Utilizing Best Management Practices (BMPs), Asiatic bittersweet will be removed by hand, bagged, and brough to the Madaket digester. Following removal of existing vegetative debris, native plantings will be introduced. The IVW will be planted with highbush blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum) and winterberry (Ilex verticillata) shrubs (2-3 foot minimum) in clusters of 2-4 individuals, 3-5 feet on center along with individual blue flag (Iris versicolor), rose mallow (Hibiscus moscheutos), and Atlantic Joe-Pye Weed (Eutrochium dubium) plugs. The 25-foot Buffer Zone will be planted with red maple (Acer rubrum) saplings, 4-6 feet (minimum); arrowwood (Viburnum dentatum) and bayberry (Myrica pensylvanica) shrubs; and butterfly weed (Asclepias tuberosa) and switch grass (Panicum virgatum) plugs, in addition to a native fescue seed mix. The restoration area totals 3,280± s.f.

Restoration of the IVW and associated 25-foot Buffer Zone will provide a long-term net benefit to the IVW that will offer improved wetland functions and values.

7. Summary

On behalf of the Applicants, Julia P. and Gary M. Killian, LEC is submitting this NOI Application for a proposed pool/patio and improvements to the existing single-family dwelling, driveway and landscaping within the 100-foot Buffer Zone to BVW and IVW protected under the WPA and/or Bylaw. The proposed project has been designed to avoid adverse impacts and restore/enhance the IVW and 25-foot Buffer Zone to provide a long-term net benefit/improvement over existing conditions.

Re: Notice of Intent Application 10 Mayhew Lane Map 41, Parcel 443 Nantucket, MA

Dear Members of the Commission:

We own property at 7 Meadow Lane, which abuts the above-referenced parcel, and are writing to provide input regarding the notice of intent application. We would like to attend the Public Hearing at 5:00 p.m. on November 19, 2020, which we understand will be held via remote participation. Please provide us with sign-in information.

While we do not necessarily object to the application, we do have a number of concerns that we ask the Commission to consider. We are primarily concerned with groundwater issues. We understand that groundwater was observed at 74", but this has been a year of record droughts in Massachusetts. In more “normal” years, it would seem that the groundwater would appear at higher levels. Additionally, we wonder whether groundwater levels in the fall season (the test was performed in late October) accurately reflect the groundwater situation during other times of the year, e.g., in the spring. Finally, we are concerned about the significance of mottles having been observed at unspecified higher levels.

On a related note, we see from the site plan on page 37 of the application that the designated “isolated vegetated wetland” is relatively small (approximately 300 sq. feet). While we have no reason to question the designation itself, as noted above 2020 has been a very dry year. In more “normal” years, it would seem that the isolated vegetated wetland would be larger, perhaps significantly so.

Returning to the groundwater level issue, we note that the pool has a projected depth of 60” (i.e., 5 feet). This is only 14” above the observed groundwater level, and as noted previously, mottles have been observed above that level. Although the application claims that "the pool has been designed to avoid encroachment into the observed groundwater", the design of the pool itself is not shown on the plans or explained in the narrative. There is no detail about the composition of the pool (e.g., concrete or vinyl lined); we understand that the walls of a Gunite/concrete pool would be at least 12" thick. Regardless, either material will require removing current boulders, adding several inches of trap rock and compacting and leveling the site beneath the bottom surface of the pool. The engineers propose the construction of a "DirtBag" to receive pumped excess ground water if necessary. However, neither the design detail nor the location of the "DirtBag" or the pump and piping are shown on the plan.

We respectfully request the Conservation Commission to carefully inquire into all of the issues we have raised. Thank you.

Very truly yours,

Peter & Princess Devlin

Re: Notice of Intent Application [LEC File #: BrEI\20-086.01] DEP File #SE48-3356 10 Mayhew Lane (41-443) Nantucket, Massachusetts

Dear Members of the Commission:

LEC Environmental Consultants, Inc., (LEC) is submitting revised materials on behalf of the Applicants, Julia and Gary Killian, to supplement the previously submitted NOI Application. Specifically, the proposed pool/patio has been revised to be located outside of the 50-foot Buffer Zone and the pool design has been modified to increase the separation to high groundwater.

Based on feedback from the building commissioner, the actual, legally approved road layout line for Mayhew Lane and associated front yard setbacks were clarified, enabling the relocation of the pool to the existing lawn area west of the single-family dwelling, outside of the 50-foot Buffer Zone. The pool/patio is proposed to be raised (El. 17.0). A four-foot-deep fiberglass pool has been selected to minimize the excavation footprint in comparison to a typical gunite/concrete pool foundation. The proposed fiberglass pool will be set above documented redoximphorphic features within the soil profile, and therefore avoid intrusion into high groundwater. Project details are depicted on the Proposed Site Plan, prepared by Bracken Engineering, Inc., revised January 15, 2021.

The Applicants remain committed to restoring the degraded IVW and 25-foot Buffer Zone, as originally proposed. Restoration of the IVW and associated 25-foot Buffer Zone will provide a long-term net benefit to the IVW that will offer improved wetland functions and values. Furthermore, the proposed pool design avoids adverse impacts to the on-site IVW and/or northerly, off-site BVW.

We look forward to discussing the revisions at the January 28, 2021 Public Hearing. Please don’t hesitate to contact me with any questions in advance of the hearing.

Sincerely, LEC Environmental Consultants, Inc.
