June 15, 2010 Jennifer L. McKay, Conservation Administrator Conservation Commission Town of Falmouth 59 Town Hall Square Falmouth, MA 02540 Dear Jennifer: The Town of Falmouth Department of Public Works Engineering Division (the DPW) is requesting permission to perform preliminary maintenance to a culvert located under Gardiner Road in front of house #55. The DPW will be filing a Notice of Intent to replace the pipe with the work to be performed in the fall. We will have to seek temporary construction and permanent maintenance easements on two parcels to the south of the road because the end of the culvert lies outside of the Gardiner Road right-of-way and within these two properties. In the meantime, we would like to alleviate the flooding occurring on the north side of the road by performing maintenance to get the culvert flowing freely again. The work would be performed in three phases as follows: Phase I Pipe Exposure Phase I would involve locating and exposing the ends of the existing culvert. On the north side, a backhoe and shovels would be used to expose the pipe end and an extension piece would be added to extend the pipe end out into the flooded area and prevent clogging. On the south side, the end of the pipe would be exposed by hand and the area around the outlet would be dug out slightly to prevent clogging. A few shovelfuls of riprap would be placed in the depression to minimize erosion. Construction Sequence (Someone from the Engineering Department to be onsite during all work operations) Notify Dig Safe a minimum of 72 working hours before construction. Notify the Town of Falmouth Water and Wastewater Departments. Both departments will need to mark out their utilities. Install Turbidity Barrier on the north side in a 10 foot radius from the area of work, shore to shore. Install haybales and siltfence in the mosquito ditch 10 feet from the area of work. Before any construction commences, the Conservation Commission and Engineering Department will inspect the site. Expose culvert end on north side. All spoils will be removed from the site. Install 4 foot extension to culvert on north side. Expose culvert on south side. All spoils will be removed from the site. Excavate 1 foot below pipe approximately 2-5 square feet in area. Backfill excavated area with rip rap. Remove any collected sediment at haybales. The Conservation Commission and Engineering Department will inspect the site at the end of Phase I. Traffic will have to be rerouted for Phase I. The anticipated time of construction is a single work day. Police details would be utilized as required. Residences along this portion of Gardiner Road will be allowed access.
This letter laid out our plans to clean out a pipe under the road and within an environmentally sensitive area.

Phase II Pipe Cleaning (a minimum of 2 weeks later) A minimum of two weeks after Phase I work is completed, the DPWs vactor truck will be used to attempt to clear the debris from inside the pipe with the water jet tools (penetrating, cutting, spinning) starting from the south side. If the culvert cannot be cleared from the south side, the water jet tools will be used from the north side. If the debris cant be cleared from the culvert from either side with the vactor truck, the location of the obstruction(s) will be determined and marked for Phase III construction if necessary. Construction Sequence (Someone from the Engineering Department to be onsite during all work operations) Before any construction commences, the Conservation Commission and Engineering Department will inspect the site. Verify haybales and turbidity barrier are in functioning condition. Remove any collected sediment at the haybales prior to commencement of work. Install plug into north side of the culvert. Begin clearing the culvert of debris on the south side until the culvert is fully cleared or an obstruction that cannot be cleared is encountered. Maintain haybales downstream of the work at all times. Stop clearing operations to remove accumulated sediment at the haybales as required. At no point should sediments be allowed to breach the haybales. All sediment/debris shall be removed from the site; no stockpiling will be allowed. If necessary due to an obstruction, remove plug from the north side and install on the south side. Proceed to clear the culvert of debris from the north side until the culvert is fully cleared or an obstruction that cannot be cleared is encountered. Maintain haybales downstream of the work at all times. Stop clearing operations to remove accumulated sediment at the haybales as required. At no point should sediments be allowed to breach the haybales. All sediment/debris shall be removed from the site; no stockpiling will be allowed. If necessary due to an obstruction, verify location of obstruction(s) and mark with paint. Remove any collected sediment at haybales. The Conservation Commission and Engineering Department will inspect the site at the end of Phase II. Traffic will have to be rerouted for Phase II. The anticipated time of construction is a single work day. Police details would be utilized as required. Residences along this portion of Gardiner Road will be allowed access. Phase III Pipe Repair (If necessary) If the culvert cannot be cleared with the vactor truck, portion(s) of the culvert may need to be replaced. At this point, all work would be either located in the pavement, sidewalk, or shoulder outside of the marsh. A new haybale and siltfence line would be installed. A saw cut of the area if in pavement would be required. The pipe would be exposed, and the blocked section(s) would be removed and a new small section would be installed. Construction Sequence (Someone from the Engineering Department to be onsite during all work operations) Notify the Town of Falmouth Water and Wastewater Departments. Both Departments should be on site in case of damage to their utilities. Notify National Grid. National Grid should be on site in case of damage to their gas line. Install haybale siltfence line around entire area to be excavated. Before any construction commences, the Conservation Commission and Engineering Department will inspect the site. If obstruction(s) are within pavement area(s), saw cut and remove pavement as required. All debris is to be removed from the site; no stockpiling will be allowed. Plug the north side of the culvert.
Jennifer L. McKay June 15, 2010June 8, 2010 Page 3

Excavate and expose the full diameter of the culvert. Portions may have to be hand dug due to the proximity of other utilities. Remove obstructed section (s) of the culvert and install a new section of the same diameter and material as is removed. (Records indicate it is 8 Corrugated Metal Pipe). All debris is to be removed from the site; no stockpiling will be allowed. Backfill and return excavation to original conditions. Loam and seed if in shoulder, patch pavement or sidewalk if in the roadway. Sweep entire construction area and remove all debris and sediments prior to removal of surface haybales and siltfence. Remove turbidity barrier and any accumulated sediments from the site. Remove haybales on the south side and any accumulated sediments from the site. Remove plug from the north side to allow the flooded area to drain. Observe until fully drained. Be prepared to reinstall plug if downstream erosion occurs. If erosion occurs, plug the culvert. Install rip rap in eroded areas as necessary and install haybales as a check dam downstream of the culvert in the mosquito ditch. If north side has not fully drained by the end of the work day. Reinstall the plug and return the next work day to continue draining. Continue to observe until fully drained. Be prepared to reinstall plug if downstream erosion occurs. If check dams were installed, remove sediments and the haybales from the site after fully drained. Traffic will have to be rerouted for Phase III. The anticipated time of construction is a single work day.
Please see the attached sketch for further information and details. Some of the proposed work will be performed outside of the Gardiner Road right-of-way and will require permission from the property owners. The Engineering Department will coordinate with the property owners. Also the residents at #s 37, 61, 67, 46, 50, 58, 60, and 66 will be notified prior to commencement of work so that coordination of access to their properties can be provided during the construction days.

May 26, 2010 Jennifer McKay Conservation Commission Administrator Town of Falmouth 59 Town Hall Square Falmouth, MA 02540 Dear Ms McKay:
This project involved coming up with a solution to a parking lot that was flooded out every rain storm. High groundwater and sensitive wetland resource areas were obstacles to the solution. I designed a detention swale/basin with an outlet that reduced peak discharge, provided first flush treatment, and allowed some infiltration to reduce volumes discharging to the nearby salt pond. This project was in the public eye and ended up impressing the Townspeople. It was a cooperative effort between Engineering and the DPW who constructed it. We laid out the work in the field and assisted them in interpreting and completing the design.
Attached please find supplemental calculations for the Mill Road street reconstruction project to amend the Order of Conditions # 25-3568 as you requested. Included in this packet are the following documents: Existing and Proposed Drainage Area Plans (2 sheets) Existing and Proposed Stormwater Calculations Water Quality Calculations Soil Survey Map
The purpose of the new information is to provide an outlet to the previously approved design plans. The original design relied upon exfiltration of the storm water. Given the existing soils and proximity of the seasonal high groundwater to the elevations around the site, exfiltration will not work. The current situation on the site consists of the roadway and sidewalk have been reconstructed minus the final surfaces, the roadside swale has been shaped (the finish surfaces and 6 drain pipe have not been constructed), and the proposed basin was partially excavated in early fall of 2009. Construction was halted during the winter season. During this time we have observed that the swale system conveys the storm water to the basin, keeping the Mill Road surface dry, even during several large storm events. The issue is that the basin is not exfiltrating and has overtopped during some storm events. The basin has maintained water at various depths since construction, never completely emptying. The proposed revisions are an effort to drain the basin. The bottom of the basin will be raised to elevation 2.5 ft which puts it above groundwater levels recorded in the nearby monitoring wells. The sediment sumps and low flow channels are slightly lower and will likely have water during high tide events, therefore those bottom surfaces are proposed to be rip rap. The top of the basin will maintain the current elevation of 3.0 ft as well as the current location of the top of the excavation. The proposed outlet consists of recycled granite curbing sections set at elevation 2.5 ft which will convey storm water to a 12 foot wide grass lined swale prior to discharge into Salt Pond. Given the complications of the
S:\Private\Projects\Mill Road\2010\Parking Lot\Submissions\ConCom-5-26-10\submission letter.doc
Ms McKay May 24, 2010 Page 2 topography, existing soil types, high groundwater, and space constraints, we feel the design revisions meet the Stormwater Management Standards to the maximum extent practicable where full compliance is not met. The following is a summary of the results: Stormwater Calculations

Stormwater Management Standards

1. No new stormwater conveyances (e.g. outfalls) may discharge untreated stormwater directly to or cause erosion in wetlands or waters of the Commonwealth. The project consists of a single outfall at the end of a storm water treatment train consisting of a roadside swale, sediment forebay, low flow channel, and detention basin. The outfall from the basin consists of a vegetated swale in an effort to prevent erosion to the discharge at Salt Pond. 2. Stormwater management systems shall be designed so that post-development peak discharge rates do not exceed predevelopment peak discharge rates. This Standard may be waived for discharges to land subject to coastal storm flowage as defined in 310 CMR 10.04. Maximum Extent Practicable-Redevelopment The project increases peak outflow for the 2 year storm by 0.24 cfs. Since Salt Pond is a tidal water body and the discharge was designed to minimize erosion, this slight increase should not have an impact. The 10 year and 100 year storms result in a decrease in peak storm water flows as a result of the proposed storm water appurtenances. 3. Loss of annual recharge to groundwater shall be eliminated or minimized through the use of infiltration measures including environmentally sensitive site design, low impact development techniques, stormwater best management practices, and good operation and maintenance. At a minimum, the annual recharge from the post-development site shall approximate the annual recharge from pre-development conditions based on soil type. This Standard is met when the stormwater management system is designed to infiltrate the required recharge volume as determined in accordance with the Massachusetts Stormwater Handbook. Maximum Extent Practicable-Redevelopment The groundwater is within a few feet of all existing surfaces in the project area. There is no feasible infiltration for this project. The project is not increasing impervious surfaces so there should not be a decrease in recharge due to the proposed work.
Ms McKay May 24, 2010 Page 3

4. Stormwater management systems shall be designed to remove 80% of the average annual post-construction load of Total Suspended Solids (TSS). This Standard is met when: a. Suitable practices for source control and pollution prevention are identified in a long-term pollution prevention plan, and thereafter are implemented and maintained; b. Structural stormwater best management practices are sized to capture the required water quality volume determined in accordance with the Massachusetts Stormwater Handbook; and c. Pretreatment is provided in accordance with the Massachusetts Stormwater Handbook. Maximum Extent Practicable-Redevelopment In addition to the previously approved design, the revisions propose a sediment forebay at the swale outlet pipe, a low flow channel in the basin bottom, and a sediment sump at the outlet. The proposed revisions will improve sediment removal over the original approved design. 5. For land uses with higher potential pollutant loads, source control and pollution prevention shall be implemented in accordance with the Massachusetts Stormwater Handbook to eliminate or reduce the discharge of stormwater runoff from such land uses to the maximum extent practicable. If through source control and/or pollution prevention all land uses with higher potential pollutant loads cannot be completely protected from exposure to rain, snow, snow melt, and stormwater runoff, the proponent shall use the specific structural stormwater BMPs determined by the Department to be suitable for such uses as provided in the Massachusetts Stormwater Handbook. Stormwater discharges from land uses with higher potential pollutant loads shall also comply with the requirements of the Massachusetts Clean Waters Act, M.G.L. c. 21, 26-53 and the regulations promulgated thereunder at 314 CMR 3.00, 314 CMR 4.00 and 314 CMR 5.00. Maximum Extent Practicable-Redevelopment The proposed project does not include a land use with higher potential pollutant loads. 6. Stormwater discharges within the Zone II or Interim Wellhead Protection Area of a public water supply, and stormwater discharges near or to any other critical area, require the use of the specific source control and pollution prevention measures and the specific structural stormwater best management practices determined by the Department to be suitable for managing discharges to such areas, as provided in the Massachusetts Stormwater Handbook. A discharge is near a critical area if there is a strong likelihood of a significant impact occurring to said area, taking into account site-specific factors. Stormwater discharges to Outstanding Resource Waters and Special Resource Waters shall be removed and set back from the receiving water or wetland and receive the highest and best practical method of treatment. A storm water discharge as defined in 314 CMR 3.04(2)(a)1 or (b) to an Outstanding Resource Water or Special Resource Water shall comply with 314 CMR 3.00 and 314 CMR 4.00. Stormwater discharges to a Zone I or Zone A are prohibited unless essential to the operation of a public water supply. Maximum Extent Practicable-Redevelopment The proposed project discharges to a mapped soft shelled clam shellfish suitability area. As previously mentioned the existing elevations of the project are a few feet above seasonal high groundwater. That, in combination of the narrow right of way space available required the storm water management appurtenances to be located in the parking lot at the intersection of Surf Drive and Mill Road. A low profile conveyance system in the form of a swale was required to convey the storm water to the parking area where a sediment forebay, low flow channel, and outlet sump located in the proposed detention basin provide storm water treatment. Given the distance from the beginning of the storm water collection point in Mill Road (~600 ft), the suggested Treatment BMPs could not be utilized in the design. The high groundwater prevents the use of infiltration measures.
Ms McKay May 24, 2010 Page 4

7. A redevelopment project is required to meet the following Stormwater Management Standards only to the maximum extent practicable: Standard 2, Standard 3, and the pretreatment and structural best management practice requirements of Standards 4, 5, and 6. Existing stormwater discharges shall comply with Standard 1 only to the maximum extent practicable. A redevelopment project shall also comply with all other requirements of the Stormwater Management Standards and improve existing conditions. Maximum Extent Practicable-Redevelopment See above Standards. 8. A plan to control construction-related impacts including erosion, sedimentation and other pollutant sources during construction and land disturbance activities (construction period erosion, sedimentation, and pollution prevention plan) shall be developed and implemented. Included on the design plans are erosion control measures that are in line with the previously approved application. 9. A long-term operation and maintenance plan shall be developed and implemented to ensure that stormwater management systems function as designed. Included on the design plans are the additional Operation and Maintenance requirements. The previously approved Operation and Maintenance plans still apply.
10. All illicit discharges to the stormwater management system are prohibited. The previously approved illicit discharge statement still applies.
We look forward to meeting with the board to discuss the design plans and calculations at your earliest convenience so the original Order of Conditions can be amended and construction can proceed prior to the start of the beach season allowing the parking lot be opened to the public. Sincerely,
Scott Schluter Staff Engineer

Bay Road Fish Ladder Replacement Falmouth, MA
1.3
Proposed Project
In addition to the fishway and roadway appurtenances, two existing water services will be abandoned and the two residences will be reconnected to another water main in the area (work scheduled for this fall, 2011), an existing gas line will be relocated to meet the new roadway grades and alignment, and an existing telephone pole has already been relocated off the proposed new roadway surface. Funds for the reconstruction of this fishway are being provided by Federal Grant money through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act as part of the Cape Cod Water Resources Restoration Project. The project is a coordinated effort between the Town of Falmouth Department of Natural Resources, Department of Public Works Engineering Division, Department of Public Works Highway Department, Conservation Commission, Town Counsel, Water Department; United States Department of Agriculture Natural Resources Conservation Service; Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries; United States Fish and Wildlife Service; Mass Bays Program; National Grid; NSTAR; abutters to the project, and neighbors on this portion of Bay Road. 1.4 Resource Area Determination and Impacts
In 2004 the Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries, in Technical Report TR-16 A Survey of Anadromous Fish Passage in Coastal Massachusetts Part 2. Cape Cod and the Islands, rated the fishway between Cedar Lake and Rands Canal in North Falmouth in poor condition with inefficient passage (see Appendix A). The Applicant is proposing to remove and reconstruct this failing fishway and the roadway above it. The fishway is comprised of a fish ladder which is considered a notched weir-pool configuration made of concrete with steel plates. It is approximately 77 linear feet in length, and 3.1 feet in width and has 14 baffles. Upstream of the ladder is a culvert that runs under Bay Road to the unnamed stream fed by Cedar Lake. The culvert enters under Bay Road through a concrete and stone headwall on the upstream end, and exits through a concrete retaining wall on the downstream end. The culvert is a 30 corrugated metal pipe, 27 linear feet in length, set at a 6.6% slope and contains internal baffles to further assist fish access to the stream leading to Cedar Lake. The culvert is prone to clogging which requires FDNR staff to climb into the 30 culvert to clear the debris. The concrete structure of the fishway is eroding and portions have fallen apart. A fence dividing the roadway from the vertical drop at the culvert exit headwall has fallen and there are no protective measures at the vertical drop of the culvert upstream end. The roadway edge over the culvert is poorly defined and extremely narrow, preventing two cars passing in opposite direction. There is evidence of frequent erosion from Bay Road into the stream due to the poor condition of the dirt surface of this portion of Bay Road.
Some of the resource areas within and adjacent to the project site were delineated by Peter McConarty (USACOE Wetland Delineator Certificate Program Certified), Acting Town Engineer of the Town of Falmouth DPW Engineering Division as well as Mark Kasprzyk, Conservation Commission Agent of the Town of Falmouth Conservation Commission. Other resource areas were determined from tidal data. The Town of Falmouth Department of Public Works Engineering Division located flagged resource areas via on-the-ground survey methods. 1.4.1 Land Under the Ocean (10.25) Land Under the Ocean starts at Mean Low Water (MLW) and extends seaward. The Mean Low Water line was taken from Dock License Plan No. 7546 for Thomas L. Kennedy recorded at the Barnstable County Registry of Deeds Book 543 Page 74 (see Appendix C). The Town of Falmouth requires a 75 foot Zone A (No Disturb) followed by 25 feet of Zone B (outer buffer) for Land Under the Ocean. 310 CMR 10.25 requires no buffer zone for this resource area.
The goal of this project is to replace the fish ladder and culvert and restore the migration of river herring and American eel as well as other catadromous and anadromous fish to this fishway. In addition, this portion of Bay Road will be reconstructed, improving stormwater management, and erosion and sedimentation into the stream. Some of the existing culvert and roadway lies outside of the Bay Road right-of-way; the proposed design will realign the road, culvert and headwalls so they will be situated within the right-of-way.
Since Bay Road is a dead end road and there are 11 residences that rely on crossing the stream as the only access their lots, Bay Road must be kept open for travel during construction. In order to facilitate this, the project has been broken into two phases consisting of constructing one-half of the roadway width in each phase. Because of the required phasing, the portion of Bay Road immediately above the fishway will be expanded in width to 28 feet, providing two lanes from the current 12+/- width. This will allow one lane to be constructed while the other is in use. The additional width will make Bay Road safer by providing an area where vehicles going in opposite directions can pass each other. The inclusion of guardrails will be an additional safety benefit over the existing conditions.
Currently the fish ladder is accessed via a severely eroded path from the roadway down the coastal bank to the fish ladder. In order to mitigate erosion on the coastal bank leading down to the fishway and to provide access to the fish ladder, a new wood observation deck and stairs will be constructed.
The proposed project includes replacement of portions of the fish ladder currently located within Land Under the Ocean, but will be limited to the existing fish ladder alignment plus some additional temporary disturbance for construction. The proposed erosion and sediment controls will protect resource areas adjacent to the construction area. The project will not have an adverse effect on the Land Under Water Resource and in fact, should improve the resource area by encouraging growth of catadromous and anadromous fish populations utilizing the repaired fishway for reproduction migration. In addition to this benefit, the existing collapsing fish ladder will be removed eliminating concrete and steel currently eroding into Rands Canal.
The new culvert under Bay Road will be set at a shallow slope (0.5%) and embedded slightly to encourage migration of eel species. The proposed culvert will be larger at 48 to provide adequate water depth. The fish ladder and culvert were designed to work together to provide the best conditions for species using the ladder.

The downstream end of the existing fish ladder lies within the flagged Salt Marsh. Since the fish ladder will be replaced, work will be done within the Salt Marsh, but will be limited to the existing fish ladder alignment plus some temporary disturbance for construction. A large portion of the salt marsh is populated with phragmites. When completed, the new fish ladder will not be falling into the Salt Marsh like the current fishway does and construction disturbance will help control the pragmites population. Therefore, this project should be considered an improvement to the Salt Marsh.

1.4.2 Coastal Bank (10.30)
Coastal Bank was determined in the field, flagged by Peter McConarty, and adjusted/verified by Mark Kaspryzk. The Town of Falmouth requires a 50 foot Zone A (No Disturb) followed by 50 feet of Zone B (outer buffer) for Coastal Bank. 310 CMR 10.30 requires a 100 foot buffer for this resource area.
The proposed project includes work along the coastal bank where the existing fishway crossed under Bay Road. The existing Coastal Bank includes the retaining wall/headwall over the culvert under Bay Road. Since the new culvert and retaining wall location will be moved to within the Bay Road right-of-way, the existing Coastal Bank will be realigned in this area. The move also impacts slopes of the Coastal Bank leading down to the upstream end of the fish ladder. A portion of the new slopes leading down to the fishway will be graded 2.5:1 and reinforced with rip rap to control erosion (The existing slope in this area is 1.5:1 without erosion control). The new retaining wall and associated grading will be an improvement over the existing failing retaining wall and eroding slopes leading to the fishway and Rands Canal.
The downstream end of the fishway falls within an area considered Land Containing Shellfish as shown on Figure 4 Shellfish Suitability Areas in Appendix A. The delineation of this area falls within Land Under the Ocean which is defined by MLW as described in Section 1.4.1 of this report. The Town of Falmouth requires no buffer to Land Containing Shellfish. 310 CMR 10.34 requires no buffer for Land Containing Shellfish.

A portion of the downstream end of the existing fishway lies within an area that may contain shellfish. Since the fishway will be replaced, work will be done within Land Containing Shellfish, but will be limited to the existing fishway footprint below MLW plus some additional temporary disturbance for construction. Shellfish species found within the limit of work will be relocated under the guidance of the Shellfish Constable. There should be no impact on shellfish communities as a result of replacing the existing fishway.

1.0 Executive Summary
Hydrologic/Hydraulic Engineering Report Fishway Replacement at Bay Road North Falmouth, MA
The Town of Falmouth DPW Engineering Division has prepared a detailed design of the stormwater management system in conjunction with the proposed replacement of an existing failing fishway at Bay Road in North Falmouth, Massachusetts. Included in this report are the methods that will be employed to prevent any potential adverse hydrologic impacts as well as water quality impacts due to the proposed construction. The objective of this Stormwater Management Program is to direct and collect a portion of the stormwater runoff through a drainage channel and to distribute it to an infiltration pit developed in accordance with the MassDEP Stormwater Management Standards. The remaining portions of the site will be directed and collected through drainage channels that will distribute the runoff to the unnamed stream between Rands Canal and Cedar Lake (the unnamed stream) in a controlled manner. The proposed stormwater quality mitigation measures include a drainage channel and a leaching basin. The supporting hydrologic and hydraulic calculations for the proposed project are included as Appendices to this report. This project is considered a mix of new construction and a redevelopment project; therefore Stormwater Management Standards are required only to the maximum extent practicable for Standards 2, 3, and the pretreatment and structural best management practice requirements of Standards 4, 5, and 6 for the redevelopment portion. Every effort was made to meet the Standards. The new construction portion of the project involves the widening of Bay Road by more than one lane over the fish ladder; the remaining portions of the project are considered redevelopment as they involve replacement of an existing fish ladder and the addition of stormwater management appurtenances to an existing roadway widened by a few feet. 1.1 Design Point Summary
A description of the pre-development and post-development drainage characteristics follows. Generally, this project attempted to match post-development characteristics to the predevelopment state. The use of stormwater BMPs, along with careful site planning resulted in an improvement in the drainage characteristics as a result of the proposed project.
1.1.1 Pre-Development Drainage Characteristics
The existing site is the portion of Bay Road adjacent to Rands Canal located in North Falmouth, Massachusetts. The site slopes from the north and the south down towards wetlands around Rands Canal and the unnamed stream between the canal and Cedar Lake. The majority of the project area is within the Bay Road roadway surface and the existing fishway structures. The total existing watershed area for the pre-development stormwater runoff analysis consists of 0.83 acres. The total watershed area is divided into two drainage areas (HydroCAD subcatchments). A time of concentration flow path was developed and land cover areas were determined for each drainage area. The pre-development stormwater runoff from these areas flows to one Design Point where the peak rates of runoff are compared to the post-development conditions runoff. Design Point 1 is Rands Canal.
Town of Falmouth DPW Engineering Division 4
Submitted to: Falmouth Conservation Commission September 28, 2011
Drainage Area 1 (HydroCAD Subcatchment DA1) flows overland to the freshwater wetlands to the east of Bay Road. Drainage Area 2 (HydroCAD Subcatchment DA2) flows overland to the salt water resource areas west of Bay Road. Both the freshwater wetlands and the salt water resource areas discharge to the Design Point (HydroCAD Reach RANDS), Rands Canal.

The Existing Conditions Drainage Area Plan (see Appendix B) indicates the boundaries of the pre-development drainage areas and the time of concentration flow paths utilized in the calculations. The pre-development drainage calculations can be found in Appendix C. Pre-Development Post-Development
1.1.2
Post Development Drainage Characteristics
The proposed project consists of the replacement of an existing failing fishway and the roadway surface of Bay Road above it. A stormwater infiltration pit is proposed to contain some of the runoff from upper portion of Bay Road. The stormwater management facilities have been designed to attenuate peak discharge increases in stormwater runoff due to construction of the project and to provide groundwater recharge approximating existing conditions. The postdevelopment design watershed area is divided into three drainage areas for a total of 0.86 acres. The increase in area of 0.03 acres is due to the proposed grading of the site which will alter drainage divides. 1.3 Stormwater Checklist
A review of the analysis and subsequent calculations in this report indicate reductions in peak stormwater discharge from the site will be realized upon completion of the project due to this Stormwater Management Program. Accordingly, no impact or increase in the frequency or extent of flooding downstream from the site due to the construction of the project is expected.
As in the pre-development conditions, stormwater runoff from Drainage Area 100 (DA100) will flow to freshwater wetlands to the east of Bay Road. Stormwater runoff from Drainage Area 101 (DA101) will flow to a proposed infiltration pit with an overflow that will discharge to the freshwater wetlands to the east of Bay Road. As in the pre-development conditions, stormwater runoff from Drainage Area 200 (DA200) will flow overland to the salt water resource areas west of Bay Road. Both the freshwater wetlands and the salt water resource areas discharge to the Design Point (HydroCAD Reach RANDS), Rands Canal.
The MassDEP Checklist for Stormwater Report follows.
The Proposed Conditions Drainage Plan (see Appendix B) indicates the boundaries of the predevelopment drainage areas and the time of concentration flow paths utilized in the calculations. The post-development drainage calculations can be found in Appendix D.

Detailed Hydrologic and Hydraulic Analysis
Pre and post development runoff summaries are provided below. Detailed calculations and descriptions can be found in later sections of this report.
1.2.1
Pre and Post Development Runoff Comparisons
Peak stormwater runoff flows from the site for the 2, 10, 25, and 100-year storm have been calculated for pre-development and post-development conditions. The increase in stormwater runoff due to the development of the site has been determined and will be mitigated through the use of an on-site stormwater infiltration pit. A runoff comparison between pre-development and post-development conditions at each Design Point is shown below.

I chose to utilize precast concrete wall sections for a fast construction. I designed the crossing to be two lanes to provide a place where cars can pass in opposite directions, something they can't do on the rest of the road. TOWN OF FALMOUTH DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WORKS
The interface between phases was critical since the stream is always flowing and the new pipe was higher, a larger diameter, and at a much shallower slope. I determined where the two pipe bottoms met and set that as the phase1/ phase2 interface. The crossing widths fell into place after this was set. Phase3 interface was simply where the wall and the fish ladder meet.

May 5, 2011 Jennifer McKay Conservation Commission Administrator Town of Falmouth Conservation Commission 59 Town Hall Square Falmouth, MA 02540 Dear Jennifer:
This is the transmittal for an RDA involving stormwater issues in two areas of the DPW Building's driveway.
On behalf of the Town of Falmouth Department of Public Works (DPW), the Town of Falmouth Department of Public Works Engineering Division (Engineering) is filing this Request for Determination of Applicability for drainage improvements at the DPW facility on Gifford Street. The goal of this project is to make emergency repairs to an existing drainage system in close proximity to the Town of Falmouth fuel facilities that the DPW maintains. Currently there is a leaching catch basin with an overflow to a Bordering Vegetated Wetland (BVW) to the south of the facility. There is no protection of the BVW in this system in the event of a fuel or oil spill. This project will address this issue by adding a fuel/oil capturing device. The project involves removing the existing leaching basin and replacing it with a Stormceptor EOS (Extended Oil Storage System) unit that is designed to capture and separate hydrocarbons from stormwater runoff. The existing leaching basin will be relocated approximately 8 feet downstream and connected to the new Stormceptor EOS unit with 10 HDPE pipe. The existing 10 CMP outlet from the existing leaching basin will be reconnected to the new location. The existing outlet near the BVW is just over 2 feet below grade. The end of the pipe has been exposed in a very small excavation to allow clearing of the pipe when it plugs up. The plans are to cut this pipe back approximately 2 feet from the end and to expand the excavation to 5 foot diameter, centered on the new end of the pipe. The excavation will then be lined with filter fabric and back filled with crushed stone. In addition to the drainage structure reconfiguration, approximately 209 linear feet of cape cod berm is proposed to positively direct stormwater runoff to the Stormceptor EOS unit, and approximately 253 square feet of pavement will be removed from behind utility pole #644B. None of this work would result in an increase in stormwater flows (a very slight decrease will be realized due to the pavement removal). This work is critical in protecting the BVW should a spill occur at the fuel filling facility. A lot of work has recently been done at the abutting Lawrence Lynch facility adjacent to this BVW and our proposed work would only enhance the BVW. This area is currently being monitored for past underground storage tanks that were removed when the DPW Facility addition along with the parking lot and the stormwater system in question was constructed in 2005. The upgrade to this stormwater system will only be an improvement. Attached to this application we have included a 40 scale plan showing the proposed work, a Locus and an Aerial Map, several GIS maps, and information on the Stormceptor EOS system.
P:\Private\Projects\0-Town Facilities\Public Works Facility\2011\DPW Drainage\Reports\RDA\RDA transmittal.doc
September 6, 2012
We are filing the Request for Determination of Applicability because we do not believe the Wetlands Protection Act and the Stormwater Management Standards contained therein apply to this project based on the following arguments: None of the work is proposed within the BVW, only buffer area work is proposed. 310 CMR 10.02(2)(b)1.f. o We are removing existing pavement and replacing it with loam and seed and erosion and sedimentation controls are proposed. 310 CMR 10.02(2)(b)2. a. We are filing a Request for Determination of Applicability. b. The BVW was delineated during a Notice of Intent by the abutter as shown on the plan entitled Plan of Proposed Stormwater System by Holmes and McGrath Inc, dated November 14, 2007 and last revised 3/15/10. c. Slopes in the buffer zones are less than 15%. d. None of the buffer zone is located within NHESP mapped habitat area. e. None of the buffer zone borders an Outstanding Resource Water. f. We are proposing work within 50 feet of the BVW. g. We are reducing the impervious surface and all alterations within 50 feet of the BVW is temporary and will be returned to natural conditions. h. Erosion and sedimentation controls are proposed; although they are within 50 feet of the resource area they are placed to protect the BVW to the maximum extent practicable. i. The project will increase compliance of the existing stormwater system with the Stormwater Management Standards with the addition of the Stormceptor EOS unit. j. This work is within previously developed area with the exception of the last 16 feet which falls within a brush line. The other remaining portions of the project are either existing paved or lawn surfaces. Based on the above reasoning, we respectfully request a Negative Determination of Applicability for the proposed work at the DPW Facility. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions, comments or concerns. Sincerely,
Peter M. McConarty Acting Town Engineer Department of Public Works Engineering Division

I designed a modification to existing drainage near the DPW's fueling station and a BVW.
I designed a stormwater system to handle a persistent large puddle that had been in the driveway for years.
I designed and permitted an accessibility ramp and observation deck for a public beach. this project was a balance between ADA requirements, beach use, and resource areas. In the end, a dune system was expanded and a beautiful ramp and observation deck was constructed.

Memo
To: David Carignan, Health Agent Peter McConarty P.E., Acting Town Engineer Old Silver Beach Summer Program CC: Re:
From: Scott Schluter, Staff Engineer Date: 6/20/2012
The Engineering Division met with Don Hoffer to go over the summer water use investigations program for this season. The plan is to fully open the Town of Falmouth Beaches for the summer season on June 30. The following program has been set up: ResidentSide(Smallsnackbar) To be performed by Beach Department Staff Every Morning Prior to Opening Read master water meter in pit. Read shower meter #43445390 in womens bathroom closet. Read snack bar meter #43445262 in snack bar by sink. Every Afternoon Prior to Closing Read master water meter in pit. Read shower meter #43445390 in womens bathroom closet. Read snack bar meter #43445262 in snack bar by sink. Periodic & Holiday Counts (Take these readings on a busy day, once a week, for two hours, during peak hours. We need a mix of morning, mid day, and afternoon readings.) Count the number of people using the showers and estimate the time with water on. Count the number of people using the bathroom facilities. Daily
This is the water meter reading plan I set up so that we could determine how much water was being used so we could size the septic system.
Open leaching pit cover and check liquid/solids level.
To be performed by Engineering Staff Periodic Counts Count the number of people using the showers and estimate the time with water on. Count the number of people using the bathroom facilities. Check levels in the septic system.

PublicSide(Largesnackbar) To be performed by Beach Department Staff Periodic & Holiday Counts (Take these readings on a busy day, once a week, for two hours, during peak hours. We need a mix of morning, mid day, and afternoon readings.) Count the number of people using the showers and estimate the time with water on. Count the number of people using the bathroom facilities. To be performed by Water Department Staff Every Monday Morning Read master water meter in pit. Every Friday Afternoon Read master water meter in pit. To be performed by Engineering Staff Periodic Counts Count the number of people using the showers and estimate the time with water on. Count the number of people using the bathroom facilities.
In addition to coordinating the water use efforts, we also discussed the future operations of this facility and the use of portable toilets. We discussed portable toilets and their use this summer. Don is going to consider locking the portable toilets, and only opening them when lines get too long, and at that point count the people using these facilities. Once the lines dissipate, the portable toilets would be locked up. This would help our efforts to quantify water use greatly, however may be an inconvenience the beach goers would not be receive well, so he is weighing both sides of this issue. We discussed whether portable toilets would be allowed if the system were replaced in the future. We discussed what would be done in the event the snack bar was destroyed in a hurricane or other event. We discussed ways to entice people to stay on the Public Side instead of migrating from the larger facilities to this beach with smaller facilities. Finally, we discussed plans for the facility, which is not in very good shape now. We summarized our goals: Obtaining good water use data this year for system design purposes while maintaining an acceptable level of service. Think about the acceptable level of service for future operation of the facilities. Think about any future plans for the facilities. Signs have been put up at the snack bar and in the snack bar with instructions of what to do should the alarm go off. To summarize, a call will go to Charlie Pires who can have a septic hauler there ASAP. Either Don or Bruce will get a call to let them know there is an issue. The bathrooms will be shut down until the system is pumped out. The Engineering Division will be informed that there was an issue and we will inspect the system soon after it has been addressed. We will update the Board of Health periodically throughout the summer season. Thanks,
Scott Schluter Staff Engineer

Memo
To: Sari Budrow, Zoning Administrator File CC: Re:
This is a typical review letter for the Zoning Board of Appeals.
55 Glenwood Avenue Comprehensive Permit
The Engineering Division has reviewed the document entitled application for Comprehensive Permit 55 Glenwood Avenue Falmouth, MA submitted by Habitat for Humanity of Cape Cod and offer the following comments: It appears that the applicant is proposing to subdivide the property into two parcels as shown on the Site Plan. o The proposed interior lot line that divides the parcel into two lots has an incorrect bearing label (N001958W). We recommend that this lines geometry be reviewed and revised. o If the single parcel is subdivided into two lots, the two dwelling units would share a common wall following the internal property line. We recommend that the applicant check State and Local Fire Codes regarding common walls between two separate buildings on separate lots if the parcel is subdivided as shown. o If the parcel is subdivided, we recommend that a copy of the stamped plan be sent to the Engineering Division for review prior to recording at the Registry of Deeds. Glenwood Avenue is a Public Right of Way in this area. The Applicant will have to file a Driveway Permit Application with the Engineering division before we sign off on the Building Permit. We will waive the $50 application fee. The applicant should be aware that there is a refundable performance bond associated with the Driveway Permit Application. We recommend that the contractor file the application and bond and not the applicant.
Thanks,
Scott Schluter Staff Engineer Town of Falmouth DPW Building 416 Gifford Street Falmouth, MA 02540 Office:508-457-2543 Fax:508-548-1537

I looked into stormwater improvements for roads surrounding a degraded salt pond and wrote this letter to the Water Quality Management Committee. the letter Eric Turkington contains my suggestions to help improve stormwater in Chairman, Water Quality Management Committee the area. Falmouth Public Schools Administration Building 340 Teaticket Highway East Falmouth, MA 02536 February 8, 2012 Dear Mr. Turkington: In an email to Peter McConarty, Acting Town Engineer, dated February 3, you requested a number of items for your upcoming Water Quality Management Committee meeting on Thursday February 16. Peter asked that I address your email and update you on the Engineering Divisions efforts on Stormwater in the Little Pond area. The Engineering Division was awarded an AmeriCorp volunteer for our Stormwater Program in October 2011. We have the volunteer one day a week, and she goes out with our staff doing various tasks in our Stormwater Program. One of her main projects is to improve our Stormwater Maps by going out to every street and making sure the maps agree with what is actually out there, and at the same time we evaluate the structures and determine rough drainage areas for each system. Most of the Little Pond area has been completed at this time. For the Little Pond area, in addition to the normal mapping tasks, we went out and took a hard look at what Stormwater Management possibilities there were for the roadways off Maravista Avenue. I have attached our markup maps for this work. To summarize, we found that each road had a number of different options to reduce stormwater flows and/or to provide treatment where lacking as follows: Replacement of lawn areas with formal bioretention areas and/or vegetated swales at the ends of the roads. Remove excess pavement where not needed, mostly at the ends of the roads, providing a single parking space length past the last driveway on any road and cut out any pavement beyond that. Intercept flows with infiltration structures in areas with enough elevation above seasonal high groundwater and tidal influences. Conversion of paved driveways to pervious driveways (pavers, gravel, reinforced grass, etc.) Removal of leaf and brush piles in the resource areas at the ends of the roads, and prevention of future accumulation. Fertilizer education (many lawns along these roads are obviously heavily fertilized).

In addition to the mapping, the Engineering Division has begun a Stormdrain Marker Program which consists of metal stormdrain markers being installed on inlet curbs, and templates being painted alongside inlets away from curbs. I have included a stormdrain marker sample, and an example of a template we use. Across the entire Town, we have done the following: Produced a Stormwater Program brochure that will be handed out to businesses along Main Street once we complete the Stormdrain Marker Program there. A door tag has been developed for residential areas once Stormdrain Marker Programs have been completed in these areas of Town. Our AmeriCorps volunteer is in the process of organizing a group event to stencil and marker the Maravista Avenue area this spring and the plan is to distribute the door tags at the same time. We have been in communication with the Dog Park group to set up some educational programs with them. The Falmouth School Department has been contacted in order to set up and educational program/demonstration at one of the school parking lots with drainage structures in it.
On the Maravista Avenue side of Little Pond, there are only a few drainage systems with pipe outfalls into Little Pond, so there is a small opportunity to install inline treatment systems on these pipes. The systems could be swirl chambers such as StormCeptor or Downstream Defender which would address Total Suspended Solids, or could be a canned wetland system such as StormTreat or Modular Wetland which would address Total Suspended Solids as well as Nitrogen, and bacteria/pathogens among other things. Costs for any of these solutions vary greatly and is based on design flows which are usually dependent on amount of impervious area discharging to the structure. Generally, they are expensive solutions but they take up less room than most Low Impact Development methods do. Treatment levels and components of stormwater treated also vary greatly. Typically you choose a target and you can size a unit to meet that target or develop a treatment train to meet that target with upstream or downstream components or maintenance practices. Stormwater BMPs are rated in the Massachusetts Stormwater Handbook Volume 2, Chapter 2.Based on my review of the information in this manual the following BMPs are rated for Nitrogen removal: Bioretention Areas - 30-50% removal Constructed Stormwater Wetlands20-55% removal Extended Dry Detention Basins15-50% removal Proprietary Media Filtersvariable, depending on media Sand and Organic Filters and Treebox Filters20-40% removal Wet Basins10-50% removal Water Quality Swales10-90% removal Infiltration Basins50-60% removal Infiltration Trenches40-70% removal Dry Detention Basins5-50% removal Proprietary Hydrodynamic Devicesvaries if at all o From Manufacturer: Stormceptor42-67% removal Proprietary Structural Devicesvaries if at all o From Manufacturer: Modular Wetland Systems76% o From Manufacturer: StormTreat77%

One site that should be of particular interest is http://www.mastep.net where they have a searchable database setup with Stormwater BMPs and their ratings. There is a summary spreadsheet located here: http://www.mastep.net/documents/BMP_comparison_table.xls A monitoring program to evaluate before and after would be a very involved project. One way to do this would be to monitor Little Pond before, during, and after rainfall events at the various proposed locations for improvements before any stormwater measures were taken to develop a baseline. Once a baseline has been established, samples could be taken before, during, and after rainfall events again and compare readings with rainfall amounts. An important thing to consider is the maintenance of any structure or system installed. Without proper maintenance, the devices would not operate properly and could possibly not provide the treatment they are rated for. Maintenance is usually an issue with Stormwater Management because it requires manpower and money. Ive included a map of the known outfalls to Little Pond along with photographs of those outfalls. Please dont hesitate to contact us with any questions, comments, or concerns.
Sincerely,

This project involved the design of an accessibility ramp to accomodate beach wheel chairs.
These are the permitting plans for the septic system replacment at Old Silver Beach.
I chose all the components and sized the pumps for the system.
I had to design special inspection equipment to satisfy the Board of Health.

Memo
To: Jennifer L. McKay, Administrator File Thomas Landers at Crocker Pond CC: Re:
This is an example of a typical review I do for the Conservation Commission.
The Engineering Division received and reviewed a set of plans entitled Falmouth Crocker Pond Route 28A (4 sheets) revised August 10, 2012, and a comment response letter with backup data also dated August 10, 2012 for the MassDOT Thomas Lander Road project under MassDEP file SE 025-3838. We offer the following comments (original comments bold and italicized): Deep Sump Catchbasins have a sump 4X the inlet diameter, 4 minimum to get 25% TSS credit, the report says the existing catchbasins are only 2.5-3 feet deep. The Applicant is not changing the existing catch basins which have less than a 4 foot sump, yet in the new TSS worksheet they are claiming 25% TSS removal. It is our opinion that a single 6 foot diameter, 6 foot deep sump manhole in a treatment train is not the same as every catch basin in the treatment train having a 4 foot sump. It is our opinion that 25% credit should not be accepted. Without pretreatment the infiltration units do not receive 80% TSS. However, this project is a redevelopment and therefore only has to meet some standards to the maximum extent practicable. The Applicants design will be an improvement over existing conditions. It appears that all small event storms will be routed to infiltration areas and only the larger storm flows bypass the infiltration areas and discharge to the pond. Does the Applicant know at which storm events the runoff is fully infiltrated (no bypass)? For the proposed leaching structures to get 80% TSS adequate pretreatment is required, the existing catchbains do not meet the criteria to be considered Deep Sump Catchbasin pretreatment units (see above). See above. To qualify for 10% TSS removal for street sweeping, a mechanical sweeper would have to sweep weekly, a regenerative air sweeper would have to sweep every 2 weeks on average, and a vacuum sweeper would have to sweep every month average. None of which is proposed. The Applicant has not taken credit for street sweeping in their new TSS calculations.

The maximum Time of Concentration for sheet flow is typically 50 in Massachusetts. Some areas in the calculations used up to 300. No calculations were provided to review. However, since there is no increase in impervious surfaces and new infiltration areas will be constructed, the peak flows and storm volumes should all be reduced over existing conditions.
The report states that the Simple Dynamic method was used to size the infiltration areas. The calculations are for a 10 year storm using the Rational Method. This is not the Simple Dynamic way to size infiltration. The calculations have been changed to simple Dynamic following the Massachusetts Stormwater Handbook for calculating the Recharge Volume. It appears that the bottom area calculation was done incorrectly, it did not account for the void spaces in the stone only as described in the Massachusetts Stormwater Handbook. Also the volume provided calculation was done incorrectly, it consist of the void volume of the stone and the volume of the structures. However, it appears that the recharge areas do provide the required volume storage and bottom area with the exception of Leaching Basin 3. It is not clear where the applicant obtained the Water Quality Volume provided numbers used to show that they met Standard 4. The Draw Down Time calculations did not take only the void space of the stone into account as described in the Massachusetts Stormwater Handbook. The time to draw down for each leaching basin is so short that they will all clearly meet the 72 hour maximum time. This project is a redevelopment and therefore only has to meet some standards to the maximum extent practicable. The Applicants design will be an improvement over existing conditions by adding 10 additional leaching structures and rebuilding 5 existing leaching structures. Three small sediment trap devices were added to the design to increase water quality volume for an improvement on the existing conditions.
It appears the peak flow rates (not all calculations were provided) are from the Rational Method not TR55/TR20. No calculations were provided to review. We agree that with no increase in impervious area, and an increase in infiltration areas should result in a decrease in peak flow rates.
The silt fence is proposed in the water, the detail shows haybales that might be in the water. The Commission may want more detail on this aspect of the erosion control. The Applicant has included a Turbidity Curtain Detail as part of the design.
It sounds like the report states that access to the work will come from the abutting properties. Does MassDOT have permission for this? The Applicant claims all access to the project areas will be from the right of way and not from private property.
It appears that the calculations for the infiltration structures do not appear to include all the areas potentially discharging to them.

The Applicant claims that there is an unpermitted connection to their drainage system. There are two catch basins located in the roadway layout of the former location of Mill Road (renamed Thomas B. Landers) which is now used as a driveway to a private residence. As far as we can tell from our records, these are located in the old Mill Road/Thomas B. Landers roadway layout and would be in a Town Accepted Way (a public roadway layout). There is a 12 pipe heading in the direction of the Highway south bound onramp with a source not located. The Applicants plans show them blocking the outfall from this system at a catchbasin in front of 929 West Falmouth Highway. Unfortunately, we have no records for this drainage system but it could be part of the construction of Route 28 which relocated Thomas B. Landers Road. The Engineering Division took a site visit and could not find the source of the pipe. It is our opinion that there are a few issues with blocking this pipe. 1. The pipe should be closed off on the upstream end so as to not leave a pipe that would remain full of water. 2. The Applicant has not shown what the impact would be of blocking this pipe. Where would stormwater go from this action? The catchbasins are in a low spot and we dont know what else is upstream and connected to this portion of the system. It is our opinion that this should be investigated both on the physical and on the legal side of things. The two catchbasins in this same area but located within the Route 28A layout did not appear to be included in the original drainage area plans. It is not clear to us that they have been included in the new calculations or if the original drainage area plans were not drawn correctly. It isnt clear what the invert calculations are, or how they pertain to the design. No further comment necessary. No calculations were provided for sizing the outlet erosion control system (Headwall Treatment Detail). The Applicant has utilized an acceptable method to size the outlet erosion control. No calculation was provided for the 25 year storm utilized in the calculation. Thanks, Scott S.
