Beaton, Secretary Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs Attn: MEPA Office 100 Cambridge Street, Suite 900 Boston, MA 02114 Subject: Final Environmental Impact Report and Phase 2 Comprehensive Wastewater Management Plan, EOEA No. 13388 Town of Mansfield - Proponent Dear Secretary Beaton: On behalf of the Town of Mansfield (Town), CDM Smith Inc. (CDM Smith) submits this Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR) and Phase 2 Comprehensive Wastewater Management Plan (CWMP) in accordance with the MEPA Regulations. The FEIR responds to the scope of work identified by MEPA and outlined in the Draft EIR Certificate dated November 26, 2014. The recommended wastewater plan includes expansion of the existing Water Pollution Control Facility (WPCF) located in Norton and construction of wastewater effluent recharge infiltration basins for infiltration of treated wastewater effluent. In addition, the Fruit Street Landfill, located in Mansfield and previously used for sludge and grit disposal from the WPCF, will be capped and closed. The recommended wastewater management plan as described herein requires MEPA review pursuant to Section 11.03(5)(b)(2) and 11.03(5)(4)(d)ii because a 1.0 mgd expansion of the existing WPCF is proposed and effluent recharge greater than 0.5 mgd is proposed.

  • Mansfield, MA
    Mansfield, MA Municipal Vulnerability Preparedness (MVP) and Community Resilience Building Workshop Summary of Findings January 2019 Submitted by: Overview Mansfield is a town of over 23,000 residents in northwestern Bristol County, MA. Its neighboring towns include Easton to the east, Sharon to the northeast, Foxboro to the north, North Attleboro to the west, Attleboro to the southwest, and Norton to the south (see map from Mansfield’s 2017 Open Space Plan). It is located about 28 miles south of Boston, 14 miles from Brockton, and 19 miles from Providence, Rhode Island. This inland community has collaborated with neighboring towns to steward shared natural resources, namely through the Canoe River Aquifer Advisory Committee (CRAAC). Much of Mansfield is low‐lying, and its proximity to critical water bodies like the Canoe River and Rumford River makes effective household and municipal water management systems important. The increasing severity of the regional flood‐drought cycle is noted as a top concern to many residents. Regionally unique ecosystems like the Great Woods offer multiple benefits to the surrounding community and must be actively preserved against climate hazards. In addition to the flood‐drought cycle, heavy precipitation, high winds, and extreme temperatures have severely impacted Mansfield’s various assets. The town sees collaborative planning as the most effective way to ensure the future safety of town residents, and the protection of critical shared resources. This value of collaboration is seen in Mansfield’s leadership as part of an emerging regional group of open space experts working to coordinate conservation efforts. To help the town consider and prioritize actions to improve its climate resilience, the Town of Mansfield applied for and received a grant from the Massachusetts Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs (EEA) to become a Designated Municipal Vulnerability Preparedness (MVP) Community.

  • Wildlife Habitat Evaluation of the Canoe River in Norton MA 2006-2008
    Wildlife Habitat Evaluation of the Canoe River in Norton MA 2006-2008 Introduction The purpose of the wildlife habitat evaluation is to provide the Town of Norton with a tool for obtaining grant funding to purchase land along the Canoe River as part of the Canoe River Aquifer Advisory Committee’s (CRAAC) Greenbelt project. A secondary objective is to provide information that will be useful during permit review to encourage cluster development and conservation restrictions for projects within the proposed Greenbelt area. A third objective is to provide residents with educational opportunities to learn about local ecosystems. In 2004, CRAAC solicited bids for a wildlife habitat evaluation of the entire Canoe River through Sharon, Foxborough, Mansfield, Easton and Norton. CRAAC does not have an operating budget and attempts to obtain grant funding have been unsuccessful. The lack of funds to hire a consultant for the work is the main reason the Norton Open Space Committee is undertaking this project in Norton. Methodology Background data was collected from the previous biodiversity day events held at protected properties along the Canoe River. Additional information was compiled from rapid resource surveys done by staff at the Wildlands Trust for three of Norton’s Self-Help Grant applications. On-line research was conducted on the MassGIS website, Manomet Center for Conservation Services ConservationMapper program and the DEP Wetland Loss project of 2004 (CD-Town of Norton). Site-specific information and maps were received from the Natural Heritage and Endangered Species Program (NHESP). Several field days were conducted in canoes/kayaks to investigate portions of the river.
