A substantial amount of the work has been completed. How- ever, additional time is necessary for completion of seawall and dredging. The main cause of this has been the delay attendant upon receiving necessary permits for the same work from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Division of Waterways and United States Army Corps of Engineers.

Massachu,,vtts 01970 C ADDENDUM Salem Harbor has served many productive purposes including commercial net- gill fishing, trap-fishing, lobstering as well as sport-fishing, sailing, pleasure motor boating and boat tours. The Pickering Wharf property is adjacent to the South River Channel and is situated along the inner Salem Marine Basin, Northwesterly of the recently renovated Central Wharf portion of the U.S. National Park Service's Salem National Maritime Park. It is an area of low wave action and accordingly has acted as a shelter and tie-up for craft during storm conditions. Historically, the property has been used as a coal (storage) facility and most recently as an. oil (storage) depot. Over the years, water quality has worsened, due in large part to the interruption of the tidal flow into the South River and its underground culvert and the brackish state of the Old Mill Pond wetland. 1 The presence of the oil depot facility was to have an high impact on the area, including heavy (oil laden) situation into the water abutting the property and also deteriorating seawalls (both wood and stone) ; and adding to the .poor water quality. In fact, all of Salem's waters and flats are closed to the taking of shell-fish for human consumption except for one area, east of the light of Fort Pickering to the easterly extremity of Pickering Point in South Salem and even these shellfish areas are moderately contaminated.Z The immediate area for proposed renewal and dredging along the Pickering property supports little or no significant marine life, except for shellfish which die off after growing only moderately and tapeworms which thrive in muck and silt (as it exists now) . The dredging proposed is temporary and its impact has no ill effect on fisheries3 or their life cycle and even the above mentioned marine forms will return to the area s.fter dredging is completed. The dredging impact will be to remove years of build up siltation, returning the seawalls to their original height (top to bottom) , removing accumulated debris and rubbish and environmentally and visually improving the site. It must be stated that the seawalls themselves shall be either totally replaced, capped, strengthened, or rebuilt. All must be considered as definite improvement for the downtown Salem shoreline. It is clear from conversations with both the lobstermen and the developers of the Pickering property that all fishing and lobstering is done outside the proposed dredging area. The commercial fishermen have chosen not to seek alternatives available to them for relocation of their shoreline docking operations (loading and unloading) and are now docked, temporarily, -2- adjacent to the N14 bulkhead of Central Wharf by permit of the U.S. National Park Service.4 This permit is of short duration, erpiring 1231/78, non- renewable, is for the purpose of allowing the permittees time to find and secure, within the time duration of the permit, docking arrangements out- side the Salem Maritime National Historic Site. The current proposed use of the Pickering property (Heritage _Trust II) will significantly reduce the negative environmental impact of the area, and without ill effect according to its prior use. The visual and aethestic qual- ity will be greatly enhanced by the proposed commercial and residential usage.

MASS. OCTOBER 19, 1976 DECISION ON THE PETITION OF HERITAGE TRUST FOR VARIANCES FOR SIDELINE AND SET- BACK REQUIREMENTS FROM STREET. AND PROPERTY LINES FOR THE PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION OF ELEVEN BUILDINGS AT 197 DERBY STREET (B-5 DISTRICT) . Hearing on this petition was held on October 19, 1976 with Chairman John M. Gray, Sr. , and members Jane T. Lundregan, William Abbott, Arthur LaBrecque, and Donald Eames::present. Notices were duly mailed to abutters and others in accordance with Massachusetts General Laws, Chapter 808. Attorney Barry Plumkett represented the petitioner before the Board. . He stated that the complex will contain commercial, residential and a theatre, and the variances requested are as follows: 1. To pexmit construction of Building F, as shown on Site Plan filed with variance petition, (combined Residential and non-Residential use) within fifteen (15) feet of Derby Street. 2. To co{istruct buildings A, K, and L. as shown on said plan, (combined Residential and non-Residential use) within 30 feet of abutting property lines..- The ines..The petitioner stated that a study had been done and plans drawn up according to the study to make the best use of the land, commercially and astheticly. The land is abutted on one side by the water. The petitioner further stated that the side line and set back requirements from the street and property lines as required by the Salem Zoning Ordinance . would restrict'-; develop able portion of the land and would thus render the buildings inconsistent with the surrounding structures and the architectural character. The Board voted unanimously to grant the variances as requested; . The Board found that the property was unique because of its size and location. The Board found that a literal enforcement of the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance would involve substantial hardship. The Board further found that it could grant the relief requested without any detriment to the public good, and with- out derogating from the intent and purpose of the Zoning By-Law. It was found that the granting of the variances would be to the benefit of the City of Salem. GRANTED.

Brad Northrup also inquired whether the developers will have gasoline on the site . Mr. Briggs stated there would be underground fuel storage. He added that it has not been decided at this time what fuel storage capacity would be, but he gave an approximate estimate of 5000 gallons. Paul Sdillis questioned the proposed anchorage of these tanks. Klr. Collins stated that they would be fiberglass tanks, steel banded and anchored in slab concrete . Mr. Briggs added that the process of anchoring was a f Heritage Trust Page 2' standard detail and he foresaw no problem with effectively accomplishing it. He also stated that information about anchoring of the tanks is not required by the Army Corps of Engineers or the State of Massachusetts. Brian French asked where the tanks would be located. Mr. Briggs answered that they would be in an open area away from the buildings and 20 feet from the water. Brian French suggested that the vents be placed higher than the 100 year flood elevation libel. Dolores Jordan questioned how long it would take to complete the work described. Mr. Briggs stated that it would take six months to complete. Brian French questioned when construction would begin. Mr. Briggs replied that the drawings are out to bid and that they expected to obtain the permits from the Army Corps of Engineers and the Division of Waterways in 3 or 4 weeks. if this happens then work could begin in 4 or 5 weeks. Attorney Stephens representing the Zdonowicz brothers questioned why the area was no longer open for public use Mr. Collins explained that up to four weeks ago it had been, but access has now been curtailed to protect the public and the property during the construction phase of the development. He added that in the future there will be public access. Attorney Stephens stated that her clients and Heritage Trust were in court at this time relevant to the eviction of the Zdonowicz brothers from the said property. Attorney Stevens stated that she felt the Con- servation Commission should be concerned with preserving the are as a natural resource for the future. She questioned whether fishing would be allowed in this area. Brian French read the portion of the Wetlands Protection Act, Chap. 131 Sec. 40 dealing with the areas covered by the Act. He stated that he questioned whether the issues raised by Attorney Stephens were relevant to the Act. She stated that she did not think that the owner- ship of the land had been clearly established and that a court decision relevant to this was pending. Attorney Plunkett informed the Commission that Judge David Doyle of the First District Court of Essex County had 'handed down a decision that Heritage Trust is "the owner of the premises in issue in fee simple by decree of the land Court, Certificate of Title 145958 originally registered October 14, 1900. The Court finds further that the defendants in this action have no possessory rights in the area in issue either as tenants, by adverse use or otherwise." Attorney Stephens replied That this decision was being appealed. Attorney Stephens next questioned the date of the hearing, as it falls on a Jewish Holiday. Mary Ellen Pelletier replied that she had spoken to City Solicitor Bill Tinti and that he had stated that it, was a legally posted hearing, that all City departments had been operating Heritage Trust Page 3 that day and that it would have been illegal to cancel the meeting. She further pointed out that Attorney Stephens' objection had not been received until today at'12:30 P.M. and that her letter had been the only objection to the date of the hearing. James Rienhardt stated that the minutes of the hearing would be avail- able at the next regular meeting of the Conservation Commission. Attorney Stephens stated that that would stili prevent people from having input on this issue. Brad Northrup questioned what "fishing areas" Attorney Stephens was referring to. Attorney Stephens explained that her clents could not transport their fish from their boat to the street because a chain had been placed across the previous access route by the owners of the property. Attorney Plunkett reiterated that the property was private property and not public. Attorney Plunkett added that the developers :ave informed the Zdanowicz brothers for a year and one-half that they would have to vacate the premises during construction. The eviction had .been served on September 6, 1577. Brian French stated that the impact to the environment of the work planned appeared to be minimal . The only justification for extending the hearing would be to allow the Zdanowicz brothers to testify relevant to the Wetlands Protection Act. Brian French also stated that the right of public access to the property is not a concern under the Wetlands Protection Act and that only physical changes and the effects are to be considered. Attorney Stephens repeated that the decision handed down by Judge Doyle is being appealed and that the land court case is still pending. Brad Northrup pointed out that the ownership of the land was not relevant to the Wetlands Protection Act because the Ower of Conditions would be attached to the land not the owner. Attorney Stephens stated that if construction is allowed on the seawall then it will affect access. Attorney Plunkett asked Attorney Stephens if her clients, the Zdanowicz bothers, were present at this hearing. She replied affirmative and the brothers were then.. introduced to the Commission. Mary Ellen Pelletier stated that since the brothers were present, they could give imput without extending the hearing. She pointed out that there had been no other objections to the hearing date. Attorney Stephens said that her clients chose not to discuss anything at this time. Heritage Trust Page 4 Ralph Hobbs stated that he found nothing objectionable in the proposed work. He felt it would not injure the ecology of the area. and would greatly improve the area.. Brian French strted that the application for the hearing was complete and that the ConCov had all the necessary information and that the Commission could not require the hearing to be extended unless the applicant concurred. Brian French asked Mr. Collins if he had any objections to extending the hearing to September 20, 1977 as a courtesy to the public. Mr. Collins replied that the developers were agreeable to this. Mr. Hobbs added that the Zdanowicz brothers had been offerred dockage at Central Wharf for an unspecified time period. Attorney Stephens replied that an "unspecified" time period is not acceptable.

Ma.,101u 1 11S-1139 , 0 ADDENDUM Salem- Harbor has served many productive- purposes including commercial net gill fishing, trap-fishing, lobstering as well. ps sport-fishing, sailing, pleasure motor boating and boat tours: The Pickering Wharf property is adjacent to the South River Channel- and is situated along the inner Salem Marine Basin, Northwesterly of the recently renovated Central, Wharf portion of the U.S. National Park Service's Salem National Maritime Park. It is an area of low wave action and accordingly . has acted as a shelter and tie-up, for craft during storm conditions. Historically, the property has been used as 'a coal (storage) facility and most recently as an oil (storage) depot. Over thy= years, water quality has worsened, due in. large part to the interruption of' the tidal flow into the South River and its underground culvert: and the-brackish-state of the. Old Mill,- Pond wetland.l The presence of the oil depot facility was to have an high impact on the area, including heavy (oil ;laden) situation into. the.water abutting the property and also deteriorating seawalls (both wood and stone) ; and adding to the poor water quality. In fact, all of Salem's waters and . flats are closed to the taking of shell-fish for human consumption except for one area, east of the light of Fort Pickering to the easterly extremity of Pickering Point in South Salem and even-these shellfish areas are moderately contaminated.2 The immediate area for -proposed= renewal and dredging along the. Pickering ,.,property supports little or no significant marine life, except for shellfish :which die off after growing only moderately and tapeworm's which . thrive. in ; muck and silt (as it exists now) . The dredging.:proposed is temporary and -its . impact has no ill effect on fisheries3 or their life cycle and even the above mentioned marine forms will return to the area after dredging is completed.. The dredging impact will be to remove years of build up siltation, returning the seawalls to their original height (top to bottom) , . -removing accumulated debris and rubbish and environmentally and visually - improving the site. It must be Stated that theeseawalls,'themselves shall 'be either totally replaced, capped, strengthened, or rebuilt. All must be considered as definite improvement for the, downtown Salem shoreline. It is clear from conversations with both the lobstermen and the developers of the Pickering property that all fishing and lobstering is done outside the proposed dredging area. The commercial fishermen have chosen not to seek alternatives available to them for relocation of their shoreline docking operations (loading and unloading) and are now docked, temporarily, adjacent to the NW bulkhead of Central Wharf by permit_of the U:S .haCionaY ' Park Service:4 This perr_itis of 'short duration, erpiring 12j3I/78, non renewable, is for the purpose of allowing. the permittees time to find and secure, within the time duration of the peimit, docking arrangements out- side the Salem Maritima 1:at1onal Historic Site. The current proposed use of the Pickeringproperty. (Neritage Trust II) will significantly reduce the negative environmental impact of the area, and without ill effect according to its prior use. The visual and adential ic qual- ity grill be greatly enhanced by the proposed commercial and residentia usage_ .- Footnotes: 2 Conservation open Space and Recreation.

Collins Heritage Trust Salem, Massachusetts 01970 Dear Arthur: On his site visit last Wednesday, Phil Briggs noticed that one of the Building L piles had been built into the seawall . As a .result of consultation with Bill McQueen of Schoenfeld Engineering, we have determined that this pile must not be used due to the probability that the seawall will move and take the pile with it . Our structural engineer has designed a new beam that will by-pass this pile (see attached sheet D66) . It is very important that the pile be cut off flush with the top of the seawall (elevation 11 .0) and not be used to carry any load, and that very close attention be paid to the proper installation of the new beam and additionalsteel . I will be immediately available to visit the site to inspect the steel and formwork prior to pouring of concrete. Thank you for your concern and cooperation in this matter.

The leased area is approximately 42, 000 square feet. It is boarded to the North by the South River; East by Congress Street; South ,by Peabody Street and West by additional land owned by New England Electric. A variance for this use was granted by the Board of Appeal on October 10, 1978 and has been recorded with the Registry of Deeds (a copy of the registration is attached). Our present aim is to grade the lot in such a manner as to direct drainage as much as possible in to the South River. The cinder based soil condition is such that we have been advised not to break that integrity by digging for the storm drains inithe like. We plan only to skim the contour of the land, add a base course of Lynn Pac and top for now with pea stone. In the future we will want to pave the lot, however, due to the time consuming application/permit factors we will hold on that phase. Also included in our plans will be an attendant booth at the entrance, pre-wiring for a parking gate, lightpoles, guardrails and other appurtances. With Pickering Wharf due to open in the very near future we hope you will act favorably on this request by determining that the Wetland Protection Act does not apply to this proposal and that this parking lot will nct be detrimental to the environment.

Electric Company) .LOCATED WITHIN AN INDUSTRIAL DISTRICT A hearing on this petition was held on October 10, 1978 and continued on October 19, 1978. Notices were- sent to abutters and others and duly published in the Salem Evening News on September 22 and 29, 1978. The folloWing members of the Board were present for the hearing: Donald Eames, Art1•.ur Labrecque, Douglas Hopper and. James Boulger. The Chairman appointed John Nutting as a voting member for this meeting. Atty. Barry Plunkett represented the Petitioner before the Board. The Petitioner would like to lease 42,100 sq. ft. of vacant land from Mass. Electric Co. in order to provide off-street parking for the Pickering Wharf project. The Pickering Wharf devel- oper has provisions for commercial parking and resident parking on their site but with the growth of the project additional parking is needed. The parking area would be visually integral with the Pickering Wharf project and that it would be treated as a part of the overall project, including landscaping. Mr. Plunkett noted that there is going to be a heavy influx of traffic withthe development of the Pickering Wharf project and this seems like the best possible solu- tion to relieve the area of parking problems. The site is convenient and close to the development area and this would.be beneficial to keep the cars off the street. . This . particular site has been vacant for at least five years. _ David Lash, representing the Planning Dept. spoke in favor of the petition noting that this use of the site would relieve the neighborhood of the parking problem. Atty. Plunkett stated that the Petitioners would be willing to discuss providing off street parking for the local abutters. The Board voted to grant the variance requested with the following restrictions: 1. Submission of drainage and landscaping plan; 2. The wall along Peabody St. remains and will be maintained; 3. The fence around the generator will be restricted in height; 4. The other fence around the area will be no more than 8 ft. in height; S. The parking area will be established in accordance with the supplementary regulations of the Zoning Ordinance. The Board found the use of the site for off-street parking an appropriate use for an Industrial District and that'it would be beneficial to the public in.alleviating the parking problems in the area. -� BK 6 5 4 2 PG 7 9 1 REc4n' D Nov DECISION- HERITAGE TRUST II 2 October 10 25 PEABODY ST.

The Jeffries Point Yacht Club was originally purchased by Massport in an effort to accommodate possible further expansion of Logan Airport. Massport no longer sees the need for such facilities in its plans for Logan and desires to sell it and the Orient Heights Yacht Club (an original Massport property) in accordance with the 1976 Logan Master Plan. The sale in no way will alter the current use of the yacht clubs.

The reasons for this recom- mendation, with reference to Section P of the Zoning Ordinance, are as follows: (1) Subsection 4c is not properly addressed as detailed design of these systems is required to make a decision; (2) For Subsection d volume and surface area of dredging should be specified and it should be restricted to a period from October to the end of May; (3) Subsections 41 and 4m require design drawings to determine whether or not piles support the total structure, including floors, as .this is a requirement for building in a V zone of a Flood Hazard District; (4) There is no certification supplied as required by Subsection 5d for Pile construction; (5) No list of required permits as required by Subsection 5e was supplied. It would appear that giving permits only for work on the seawall would present no burden to the applicant as according to a presentation by Heritage Trust to the Commission, the only work planned for this year is work on the seawall and work close to Derby St. SOIL AND ROCK ENGINEERING C O N S ULTATION DESIGN TESTING GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERS INC. 1017 MAIN STREET WINCHESTER MASSACHUSETTS 01890 (617) 729-1625 STEVE J.POULOS RONALD C.HIRSCRFELD Ja NI P nssociwrr ' RICHARD MUROOC i.NUROOCF CON2AL0 Ca5iR0 December 17, 1974 Skidmore Owings & Merrill 334 Boylston Street Boston, Massachusetts 02116 Attention: Mr. William Martin Subject: Proposal for foundation feasibility study Pickering Oil Co.

We look forward to serving you on this project. Sincerely yours, GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERS INC. xU1461- (�I 4�dve1w Ronald C. Hirschfeld President RCH:ms Encl. P.S. Please return one signed copy of this proposal if it is accepted. I PROPOSAL 4J for FOUNDATION FEASIBILITY STUDY PICKERING OIL CO. SITE _ SALEM, MASSACHUSETTS Submitted to Skidmore Owings & Merrill Boston, .Massachusetts Geotechnical Engineers Inc. December 17, 1974 1.0 PURPOSE The purpose of the proposed investigation is to obtain prelimi- nary information about foundation conditions at the Pickering Oil Co. site. This information is needed for evaluating the feasibility of various foundation types and making estimates of foundation costs for various development schemes. If the decision is made to go ahead with development of the site, the subsurface data developed during this investigation will partially fulfil the requirements for final design of foundations, but will have to be supplemented by additional detailed boring data and foundation analysis for specific structures. _2.0 INFORMATION TO BE OBTAINED - 2.1 Available Information To the best of our knowledge, no borings have been made on the site previously. We have made a reconnaissance of the site and have summarized our observations in a letter report dated November 7, 1974 to Skid- more Owings & Merrill. In general, we observed that damage due to large settlements was obvious in several buildings, an oil tank, sections of the concrete spill-retention wall around the tank farm, and sections of the harbor-side bulkhead. These settlements un- doubtedly are the result of unfavorable foundation soils whose physical characteristics and geometry can only be determined by borings. f -2- 2.2 - 2.2 Proposed Boring Program We estimate that five (5) split-spoon borings, drilled to - bedrock, glacial till, or other good bearing material, would suffice to provide the general subsurface data needed for planning purposes. Since no high buildings (20 stories or more) are being con- sidered for this site, there will be no large concentrated loads which would require knowledge of the physical properties of the bedrock. Hence, no rock coring is required. No undisturbed sampling is proposed for this investigation. The split-spoon (disturbed) samples should be adequate for planning studies. For final design, some undisturbed sampling combined with detailed laboratory testing and foundation analysis may be economi- cally justified depending on the details of the foundation loading and the subsurface profile revealed at the site of a specific struc- ture by the split-spoon borings made for that structure as part of the final design. For estimating the cost of the proposed borings we have as- sumed that the average depth of each boring will be 60 feet. Be- cause there are no boring data available for the site, the assump- tion is only an educated guess. In order not to underestimate the cost we have estimated this depth on the high side of what might be expected, but there is the possibility that the foundation condi- tions might be even worse than our conservative guess and that the borings could go deeper than 60 feet. 2.3 Proposed Laboratory Testing Program The laboratory testing program would consist of measuring in- dex properties of the soil-samples: For the types of soil that are most likely to be encountered, those properties would include only. water-contents_-and.Atterberg Limits. More sophisticated laboratory tests, such as consolidation and strength tests, would be much more expensive and would require tak- ing undisturbed samples in the borings (which would be much more expensive than the split-spoon samples) . Such tests are not needed for the feasibility study, although they may -be.neede-d for final design of specific structures. -" " -3- 3.0 SCOPE OF WORk: Geotechnical Engineers Inc. would perform the following work: i 1. Select the layout of the borings. 2. Inspect the boring operations. 3. Perform laboratory tests as needed to classify '^ the soil samples. 4. Perform engineering studies to evaluate the technical feasibility of various foundation types. S. Evaluate the construction problems inherent in the foundation conditions at the site. i 6. Submit a report covering the results of the 4 study. i A surveyor should be engaged to lay out the five (5) pro- posed borings. This could be done by surveyors who work for the t City of Salem, or the work could be sub-contracted by Geotechnical Engineers Inc. , or by Skidmore Owings & Merrill. A boring contractor must be engaged to do the borings, either by Geotechnical Engineers Inc. or by Skidmore Owings &Merrill. The proposed boring program consists of five (5) split-spoon sample borings to bedrock or glacial till, with no rock coring. 4.0 FEE SCHEDULE Fees for our services will be based on the time worked on the project in accordance with the enclosed "Standard Conditions For Engagement." 5.0 ESTIMATE OF FEES 5.1 Engineering The engineering fee cannot be accurately determined in ad- vance. We estimate that the cost will be about $3,500, including $1,500 for inspection and supervision of borings and $2,000 for the analysis and report. t 1 . -4- 5.2 Borings i The cost of the borings also cannot be estimated accurately t in advance since we do not know how deep they will be. Assuming five (5) borings each 60 feet deep, the total cost is not ex- pected to exceed $3,000. 5.3 Surveying If the layout of the borings and determination of the ground elevations is done by sub-contract, the-cost should not exceed $300.

Along the southwest side of the wharf, the minimum distance between the floats and the channel is 7.1 feet. The float configuration differs considerably from that authorized by a Corps permit issued in April 1978. By this notice we are seeking comment to determine whether the floats and piles should remain in the present configuration. Is 'L The decision whether to issue a permit will be based on an evaluation of the probable impact of the proposed activity on the public interest. That decision will reflect the national concern for both protection and utilization of important resources. The benefit which reasonably may be expected to accrue from the proposal must be balanced against its reasonably foreseeable detriments. All factors which may be relevant to the proposal will be considered including the .cumulative effects thereof; among those are conservation, economics, aesthetics, general environmental concerns, wetlands, cultural values, fish and wildlife values, flood hazards, flood plain values, land use, navigation, shoreline erosion and accretion, recreation, water supply and conservation, water quality, energy needs, safety, food production and, in general, the needs and welfare of the people. Where the activity involves the discharge of dredged or fill material into waters of the United States or the transpor- tation of dredgedmaterial for .the purpose of disposing of it in ocean waters. The evaluation of the impact of the activity on the public interest will also include application of the guidelines promulgated by the Administrator, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, under authority of Section 404(b) of the Clean Water Act, and/or Section 102(x) of the Marine Protection Research and Sanctuaries Act of 1972 as amended. Based on his initial review, the Division Engineer has determined that little likelihood exists for the proposed work to impinge upon properties listed in or eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places and no further consideration of the requirements of the Preservation of Historical and Archaeological Data Act of 1974 is necessary. This determination is based on one or more of the following: a. The permit area has been extensively modified by previous work. b. The permit area has been recently created. C. The proposed activity is of limited nature and scope. d. Review of the latest published version of the National Register shows that no i_ P g presence of registered properties or properties listed as being eligible for inclusion therein are in the permit area or general vicinity. Presently unknown archeological, scientific, pre-historic or historical data may be lost or destroyed by work to be accomplished under the requested permit. The Division Engineer has also consulted the latest published list of threatened or endangered species and has made a preliminary determination that the proposed activity will not affect those species listed or their critical habitat. The initial determinations made herein will be reviewed in light of facts submitted in response to this notice. The following authorizations have been applied for or have been or will be obtained: QO Permit, License or Assent from State. Massachusetts , ( ) Permit from Local Wetlands Agency or Conservation Commission. ( ) Water Quality Certification in accordance with Section 401 of the Clean Water Act. The States of Connecticut, Haines Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Rhode Island have approved Coastal Zone Management Programs. Where applicable, the applicant states that the proposed activity complies with and will be conducted in a manner that is consistent with this approved Coastal Zone Management Program. Issuance of a State permit from the appropriate State agency will indicate concurrence with this Statement of Consistency. All comments will be considered a matter of public record. Copies of letters of objection will be forwarded to the applicant who will normally be requested to contact objectors directly in an effort to reach an understanding.

In- inial use of this information will be to convert Salem to the regular program of flood insurance by the Federal Insurance Administration. Further use of the informa- tion will be made by local and regional planners in their efforts to promote sound land use and flood plain development. 1. 2 Coordination Contacts and meetings with city officials , agencies , and residents yielded a variety of information regarding land use and planning data, past flood history, and estimates of current and future community development patterns. At a meeting held on November 26 , 1974 , be- tween town officials and representatives of Anderson- Nichols , decisions were made pertaining to study limits and methods; data was also gathered pertinent to flood- prone areas. On June 4 , 1975, representatives of the Federal Insurance Administration and Anderson-Nichols gave a presentation to Salem City officials and resi- dents to familiarize them with both the Flood Insurance Program, and the nature and requirements of the study to be performed. At the final coordination meeting held February 24 , 1976 , representatives of the Federal In- surance Administration and Anderson-Nichols again gave this presentation and also considered all questions from those in attendance. It was decided by the City Engineer that detention ponds (perched swamps) in upland wetlands should not be de- lineated, as the base flooding would be less than 1 foot. 1. 3 Authorization and Financing This Flood Insurance Study was conducted by Anderson- Nichols & Company, Inc. , at the request of the Federal Insurance Administration, U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. The source of authority for the study is the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 , as amended. Authority and financing are contained in Con- tract No. H-3715 . 2. 0 AREA STUDIED 2 . 1 Scope of Study Y This Flood Insurance Study covers the incorporated area of the City of Salem. The area of study is shown on the Vicinity Map (Figure 1) . The detailed study is restricted to areas affected by tidal, flooding or the surge that accompanies severe storms, including the tidal flooding of the North, South, and Forest Rivers. In the detailed study, the effects of velocity are also considered. Thompson' s Meadow, a swampy area on the upstream section of Forest River, was evaluated by approximate methods . Existing development and proposed urbanization expected to occur within the next 5 years were also considered. 2. 2 Community Description The City of Salem, located 11 miles northeast of Boston, in southeastern Essex County, Massachusetts , is a sub- urban community of approximately 8 square miles . The city is bordered on the north by the Danvers River and Beverly Harbor, on the south by the Cities of Swampscott and Lynn, on the east by Beverly and Salem Harbors and the City of Marblehead, and on the west by the Town of Peabody. The area was incorporated as a town in 1630 , and the name of Salem (from the Hebrew work for "peace" ) was adopted. Salem is an important industrial center, with manufacturing as the predominant economic pursuit. Physiographically, Salem is located in the Glaciated Appalachians . The dominant bedrocks , probably Carboni- ferous in age, are clastics such as sandstone, shale, and conglomerate, metamorphosed to varying degrees , and originally deposited in sedimentary basins . Within Salem, the coastal lowland supports dense urban development and has been subjected to fill type modi- fications . The shoreline , 18 . 5 miles in length, is characterized by tidal-flat inlets , stretches of salt marsh and rough rock. The land rises gradually inland, and then rises sharply, becoming what is known as the "Salem Highlands" , its pock-marked plateau created by the more recent glacial action. Salem is subjected to weather patterns typical of New England; more or less regular conflicts between cold- dry air masses flowing out of the great subpolar region 2 s •y 9 n y (� � ��-.� y�� 1 � .: '�j �'�>..(ta- .��n✓ r � '�'' �� .%6„� r �'@r c. .1'tIPAlit- p v ' s. .�� \ ) ',� 3A `,i! �I��.aiL t'd� .Y�{ y �4T^T I r —_ � +,L �--•D . — ��. . �a A IT L A N T I C 11 41111 e'45 o c s A N N e ♦ p 'F+y.. `�'t' '�.=F��..I i �`i [�J (ter n•• li1y�._y1,v,. �/`i,�"'�{"1�$'�,�/4 Y� T��re>-�'� qer" ..... - ar E� (.N *r,[ Y \� �� TINKERS ISLAND �� •, �� l�� )�r .�u� r T 1 � �l [.F« �r �($OIT DIY$ • aa, f\� r h f j" 1 �e .� DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT APPROXIMATE SCALE L7 Federal losurani:e Administration 0 7000 14000 21000 28000FEET CITY OF SALEM , MA I E S S E X C . I VICINITY MAP i to the northwest, and the warmer moisture-bearing tropical air from the south. These patterns produce a normal an- nual precipitation of 41. 28 inches , fairly well distrib- uted throughout the year. Temperatures rarely exceed 96°F in the summer or dip below -19°F in the winter months. Average temperatures are 70 . 3°F in July and 30 . 7°F in January. 2 . 3 Principal Flood Problems Because of its exposed location, Salem is vulnerable to high tide levels resulting from the effect of north- eastern-induced storm surges coupled with normal astro- nomical tide ranges . Damages to structures in the flood plains has occurred during a storm such as that of March 1830 (Reference 2) , and rncently in February 1972 and December 1974 , with their respective tide levels , at the Boston tide gage , being 9 . 1 feet and 7. 6 feet mean sea level. 2 . 4 Flood Protection Measures Presently in place along the shoreline are numerous em- bankments and seawalls designed for the primary purpose of erosion protection. These barriers do provide some protection against wave action associated with the more frequent events (10 and 50 year) . They may not be suf- ficient to significantly preclude flooding of property by the 100- and 500-year tidal events . Flood control projects for the North and South Rivers' were not designed to protect against tidal inflows of the magnitudes attained by the 100- and 500-year floods . Actually, the design criteria for these projects are based more on the 10- and 50-year figures for precipi- tation runoff with little consideration given to storm- tide effects. It must also be noted that the heights of existing or planned tide gates within the city are insufficient to prevent tidal inflow during the 100-year event. While it is acknowledged that some inland flooding does occur in conjunction with severe events , it is signifi- cant to note that recent construction such as that on Jefferson Avenue can be expected to alleviate this situ- ation during future flood events . It must be accepted, however, that the city storm-drainage system will not be able to operate effectively during times of heavy preci- pitation which is in concert with a high astronomical 4 tide and the storm-related ocean surge; unless suffi- ciently pumped, storm water cannot be discharged to an elevation below the existing tide level . 3. 0 ENGINEERING METHODS For flooding sources studied in detail in the community, standard hydrologic and hydraulic study methods were used to determine the flood hazard data required for this study. Floods having recurrence intervals of 10- , 50- , 100- , and 500- years have been selected as having special significance for flood plain management and for flood insurance premium rates . - The analyses reported here reflect current conditions in the watersheds of the streams . 3. 1 Hydrologic and Hydraulic Analyses As no continuous record of tidal-flood data for the im- mediate Salem coastline exist, long-term records from the Boston tide gage, representative of the Salem area, were used. The gage is located approximately 10 miles southeast of Salem, and is subject to the same north- eastern inducted surges encountered in Salem. Tidal ele- vations have been recorded at this gage since 1921. From 1851 to 1921, high tides were recorded at either Common- wealth Pier or the Navy Yard, and from 1723 to 1851 , were estimated from historical accounts . Values of the 10- , 50-, 100-, and 500-year tide elevations were obtained from a log-normal distribution of maximum tide levels (Figure 2) after adjustment for the observed gradual rise in sea level of 0. 05 foot per decade prior to 1910 and 0 . 1 foot per decade thereafter (Reference 3) . The elevations used for this study are all measured from mean sea level. Locations of elevation reference marks given in Exhibit 1 are shown on the Flood Insurance Rate Map (Figure 2) . 4 . 0 FLOOD PLAIN MANAGEMENT APPLICATIONS A prime purpose of the National Flood Insurance Program is to encourage state and local governments to adopt sound flood plain management programs. Each Flood Insurance Study, there- fore, includes a flood boundary map designed to assist commu- nities in developing sound flood plain management measures . 4. 1 Flood Boundaries In order to provide a national standard without regional discrimination, the 100-year flood has been adopted by the Federal Insurance Administration as the base flood for purposes of flood plain management measures .

For tidal-flood areas , the boundaries of the 100-year and the 500-year flood have been delineated, using topo- graphic maps (Reference 4) , enlarged to a scale of 1 inch = 12 , 000 feet with a contour interval of 10 feet. Although flood boundaries are normally shown on a flood boundary map, in this study; maps showing flood insurance zones have been used to indicate the flood boundaries . On this map, the 100-year flood boundary coincides with the boundary of the areas of special flood hazards (Zones A3 and V3) and the 500-year flood boundary coincides with the boundary of areas of moderate flood hazards (Zone B) . In cases where the areas of special flood hazards (Zones A3 and V3) are not bordered by areas of moderate flood hazards (Zone B) , the 100-year and 500-year flood bound- aries coincide. 5. 0 INSURANCE APPLICATION In order to establish actuarial insurance rates, the Federal Insurance Administration has developed a process to transform the data from the engineering study into flood insurance cri- teria. This process includes the determination of reaches, Flood Hazard Factors , and flood insurance zone designations for the tidal areas of the city. 5. 1 Reach Determinations Reaches are defined as flood-prone areas having the same relative flood hazard, based on the average weighted difference in water-surface elevations between the 10- and 100-year floods . This difference does not have a variation greater than that indicated in the following table for more than 20 percent of the reach. Average Difference Between 10- and 100-year Floods Variation Less than 2 feet 0. 5 foot One reach meeting the above criterion was required for the flooding sources of Salem. This one reach was for the Atlantic Ocean. 5. 2 Flood Hazard Factors The Flood Hazard Factor (FHF) is the Federal Insurance Administration device used to correlate flood informa- tion with insurance rate tables . Correlations between 7 property damage from floods and their• FHF are used to set actuarial insurance premium rate tables based on FHFs from 005 to 200 . The FHF for a reach is the average weighted difference between the 10- and 100-year flood water-surface eleva- tions expressed to the nearest one half foot, and shown as a three-digit code. For example , if the difference between water-surface elevations of the 10-year and 100- year floods is 0. 7 foot, the FHF is 005 ; if the differ- ence is 1. 4 feet the FHF is 015 ; if the difference is 5. 0 feet, the FHF is 050 . When the difference between the 10-year and 100-year water-surface elevations is greater than 10. 0 feet, accuracy for the FHF is to the nearest foot. 5 . 3 Flood Insurance Zones After the determination of the reach and its Flood Hazard Factor, the entire incorporated area of Salem was divided into zones according to flood potential or hazard areas . Each zone was assigned one of the following flood insur- ance zone designations : Zone A: Special Flood Hazard Areas inun- dated by the 100-year flood, de- termined by approximate methods ; no base flood elevations or Flood Hazard Factors determined. Zone A3 : Special Flood Hazard Areas inun- dated by the 100-year flood, de- termined by detailed methods; base flood elevations shown, and zones subdivided according to the Flood Hazard Factor. Zone V3 : Special Flood Hazard Areas along the coasts inundated by the 100-year flood as. determined by detailed methods and that have additional hazards due to velocity (wave ac- tion) ; base flood elevations shown and zones subdivided according to the Flood Hazard Factor (coastal areas only) . Zone B: Areas between Zone A3 and the limits of the 500-year flood. 8 Zone C: Areas not subject fo flooding by the 500-year flood. Table 1, "Flood Insurance Zone Data" , summarizes the flood elevation differences, Flood Hazard Factors , flood insurance zones and base flood elevations for Salem. 5 .4 Flood Insurance Rate Map Description The Flood Insurance Rate Map for the City of Salem is, for insurance purposes , the principal result of the Flood Insurance Study. This map contains the official delineation of flood insurance zones and base flood elevation lines. Base flood elevation lines show the locations of the expected whole-foot water-surface ele- vations of the base (100-year) flood. This map is de- veloped in accordance with the latest flood insurance map preparation guidelines published by the Federal In- surance Administration. 6. 0 OTHER STUDIES While there have been past studies defining specific flcod problems for certain areas of Salem (References 5 and 6) , these studies have been concerned with precipitation runoff. Normal tide levels were considered, but tidal flood analysis was not done. The Flood Insurance Study for Swampscott has been completed and the results of this study are in general agreement with those for Salem. No direct comparision could be made since the study limits for Salem and Swampscott are not continuous . 7. 0 LOCATION OF DATA Survey, hydrologic, hydraulic, and other pertinent data used in this study are on file at the office of Anderson-Nichols & Company, Inc. , Consulting Engineers , 150 Causeway Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02114 . 8. 0 BIBLIOGRAPHY AND REFERENCES 1.

The enclosed drawings and following written explanation describe how the conditions for a special permit are met. A. The proposed use complies with all provisions of the Zoning District B-5 except for setback requirements . A variance was applied for exempting the developer from these require- ments and was granted on October 19 , 1976 . B. Adequate convenience and safety of vehicular and pedestrian movement within the site have been provided. A major loop road allows free movement of traffic, both pedestrian and vehicular. No dead end conditions exist and no adverse effect from flooding is expected on adjacent public or private property. C. The entire site plan and building design has been reviewed on a preliminary basis by the Design Review Board and was found to be consistent with their objectives . Additional review is expected as detailed architectural plans are developed. D. All site utilities will be run underground and will be constructed to resist differential settlement between buildings and site. Engineering analysis of the subsoil conditions show that conventional underground utilities can be installed because of a stable soils condition. The existing utilities have been installed in this manner and have functioned satisfactorily over a period of years . E. The proposed buildings will be erected on piles mechani- cally fastened to a structural concrete slab first floor system in compliance with the Massachusetts State Building Code. The design does not include any structures above open water and all structures are built on solid existing soils . No basements are planned. The elevation of the tl� ADD Inc Architecture Design Development - Page Two Mr . David Lash 3/3/77 first floor will be at or above the 15 . 36 foot elevation thus no flooding is expected. First floors will be occupied by commercial tenants and second and third floors by residential units. F. on site surface drainage will be handled with a system of catchbasins directly piped to open water. The accumulation of water will have no effect on the water surface elevation of the base flood. We will be pleased to meet with the Planning Board to discuss this matter in detail. e t y you s , a Philip M. Briggs PMB:sjt Enc. cc: A. Collins T.

GREGORY SENKG PLANNING DEPARTMENT CITY PLANNER ONE SALEM GREEN 01970 MEMO RE: Wetlands and Flood Hazard District FROM: David Lash, Planning Department DATE: March 16, 1977 On March 10, 1977, the City Council gave final passage to the Wetlands and Flood Hazard District amendment to the Salem Zoning Ordinance. The amendment stipulates that in these Districts, no structure or building shall be constructed or substantially improved, or earth filled or excavated, without a Special Permit from the Planning Board. In granting a Permit, the Board must find that a number of conditions have been met. These conditions insure that construction elevations and methods will minimize or eliminate flood damage. In short, if a developer wants to do something in the areas covered by the proposed ordinance that are not allowed by right, he must apply to the Planning Board for a Special Permit. The Board then must review the application in regard to specific criteria and approve the application if it complies, and disapprove it if it does not. Part of this review is a request for comments by the Building Inspector, City Engineer, Board of Health, and Conservation Commission. The ordi- nance stipulates that comments must be received within 35 days. Follow- ing that comment period, the Planning Board will hold a public hearing on the application; notice of the hearing will be sent to you. I am enclosing a copy of the amendment as adopted for your information. I am also enclosing a Request for Review Comments from- you- for our first application, that of the Pickering Wharf development on 1 /y 2 Derby Street. Comments are due on April 20, 1977 although we would like to receive them as soon as possible. If I can provide any additional information regarding this matter, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Without going into current liti,,.ation beto.een the parties our Board has voted to protest tae prupob•:.0 marina not alone because of the intereLit of our rnembrrsnip but because of the interest to the general public. It is our desire to protest the proposed commercial marina because of our concenis for trre �,reserve.t on of the fisherin:; and lobstering industry, the darnage to the enviroment , the pollution, and the need of the public for access to the w t r for purposes including a shelter for vessels in case of storm. We call your attention to the official record :kept by Helen V. CouKlin, Acting City Clerk of the City of Salem, dated July 15, 1979 at a public hearing held on the matter of zoning. 16e }uore from the official record "Councillor Saraceno was concerned about a redident who lob:aered in this area for yea -s but was told the resiaent would be allo:.ea to continue while they were in con- struction". The f�.;t that the developers have brc;sen faith ty ' pressuring for the eviction of our members suggest that ;;rent caution be exerci,.eu in connection with perr: its for the use of the waterer by these developers.
