Be advised that at the time of purchase by heritage Trust II of the Salem Marine Basin property, we obtained an assignment of lease from the City of Salem covering the area affected by the enclosed permits and an assignment of each permit as well.

Included with the inquiries from the Planning Board is the question pertaining to the dredging requirements received by the Massachusetts Water. Resources Commission, Division of Water Pollution Control . DREDGING Inquiry By: Dr. Robert Ingram, State Water Pollution Control , Martin Fair, R. S. , Sanitarian, City of Salem, Board of Health Schoenfeld Associates, Inc. has contacted Dr. Robert Ingram of the State Water Pollution Control and Mr. William Sterling Wall the State Environmental Engineer. Licensing for all future dredging operations v t will depend on the controlling of the drying out site of the dredge material . The runoff from the dredged material will riot be allowed to flow back into the river. A detention basin for the runoff effluent is a necessary requirement. This detention basin will allow the suspended solids , containing the chromates, to be filtered out so the pollutants will not be returned to the river. A containment drying out basin will have to be constructed with an imperious clay wall or a framed basin lined with plastic material like butyl . Also; a schedule of dredging operations is needed, time of dredging, size of drying out area, contain- ment of the effluent while the dredged material is drying out in this area, etc. r I Mr. Skip Coppola June 20, 1980 Page 2 The existing dredged material will have to be enveloped with similar Plastic material such as butyl for disposal at an acceptable landfill site (Nobles). A future acceptable disposal site is as yet not determined Por the future dredging operations. DREDGING: Existing Bulkhead Walls Inquiry By: Arthur Fletcher, City Engineer - Salem, Massachusetts The depth of the existing walls below the present mud line has been researched and license plans with wall sections have been found. Further investigation is now being made for a better engineering evaluation of the wall stability due to the proposed dredging. CITY DRAIN Inquiry By: Arthur Fletcher, City Engineer - Salem, Massachusetts The City drain out-fall , through the bulkhead wall , is now shown on the revised 20 scale plan of the Marina floats. The dredging operations or .depth of dredging will :in no way interfere with the flow from this drain. The edge of the proposed floats are 7' away from the wall and will not block the drain at any tide level. FLOATS Inquiry By: Robert Gruthies, SPP Building Inspector - Salem, Massachusetts, Martin Fair, R. S. , Sanitarian, City of Salem, Board of Health Vessel Sewage Pump Out Station. A newly installed self-contained marine pump out station for handling the Marine sewage is located near the gangway to the channel floats. The pump is located on the deck at the southeast corner of Victoria Station. The discharge of this _pump is directly connected to the City sewage system. Mr. Kelley, Operator of Pickering Wharf Marina assures us that it is adequate for all vessels using the Marina.

E. Descriptions relative to all conditions applicable in Section III below. III. Conditions (Complete those sections indicated (x) by the Building Inspector) In the Wetlands and Flood Hazard Districts no structure or building, including pipes and wells, shall be erected, constructed, substantially improved, enlarged, or otherwise created or moved; no area shall be paved; no earth or other material shall be stored, dumped, used as fill, excavated, or transferred; and no sediment shall be caused to be discharged from or onto a wetland, unless all the following condi- tions are found to exist as part of the granting of a Special Permit by the Planning Board (Use additional pages if necessary) : A. All Districts: (X) 1. The proposed use will comply in all respects to the uses and provisions of the underlying District in which the land is located. Yes X No (X) 2. There is adequate convenience and safety of vehicular and pedes- trian movement within the site, and in relation to adjacent streets and property, particularly in the event of flooding of the lot(s) or adjacent lot(s) caused by either overspill from water bodies or high runoff. Existing marina areas has adequate convenience and safety of vehicular and pedestrian movement within the site also in relation to adjacent streets and property. Adequate means of egress from the existing marina floats exists in the event of tidal flooding. -3- (X) 3. Utilities, including gas, electrictity, fuel, water, and sewage disposal, shall be located and constructed so as to protect against breaking, leaking, shortcircuiting, grounding or igniting or any other damage due to flooding. (Provide details) Nnr applicable (X) 4. The cumulative effect of the proposed development or use, when combined with all other existing and anticipated development and uses will not obstruct or divert flood flow; substantially reduce naLural flood-water storage capacity in the local drainage area; destroy valuable habitat for wildlife including fisheries or shellfisheries; adversely affect groundwater resources or increase storm water run-off velocity so that water levels on other land are substantially raised or the danger from flooding increased. The dredging would give the marina area greater depth of water for the boats using the marina. Dredging would slightly increase the flood water storage. Dredging would not adversely affect valuable habitat. B. Wetlands District: ( ) 1. The proposed development or use shall not include the storage of salt, chemicals, petroleum products or other conta urinating substances or discharge of any polluting liquids or materials into streams, brooks or wetlands.

The floor level. of areas to be occupied by human beings as living or work space shall be four (4) feet or more above the seasonal high water table. -- ( ) 3. If the basement floor level is below the seasonal high water table and affords the possibility of human occupancy at some future (late, although not originally intended, adequate perimeter drainage and foundation shall be installed to with- stand the effect of pressure and seepage. Furnace and utilities are to be protected from the effects of leaching. (Provide details) Applies ( ) Does not Apply ( X ) Not applicable. ( ) 4. If the lot is to be served by an on lot septic system, the leaching area designed For use, as well, as a reserved area for future expansion or total future use, shall be plotted with dimensions on the site plan, and the leaching areas shall not be constructed where the seasonal high water table is less than 4 feet below the bottom of the leaching areas. Applies ( ) See site plan Does not apply ( X ) C. Flood hazard District (all zones) : ( ) 1. The floor of the basement, or if none, the lowest floor of new construction or substantial improvement of structures for residential uses shall be at or above the 100 year flood level. Not applicable. ( ) 2. The floor of the basement, or if none, the lowest floor of new construction or substantial improvement of structures for non- residential uses shall. be at or above the 1.00 year flood level or the structures shall be flood-proofed to that level in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Massachusetts State Building Code. Flood-proofing measures shall insure that the structure is watertight and that structural components have the capability of resisting hydrostatic and hydrodynamic loads and the effects of bouyancy.
