C. General Conditions Under Massachusetts Wetlands Protection Act (cont.)

17. Prior to the start of work, and if the project involves work adjacent to a Bordering Vegetated Wetland, the boundary of the wetland in the vicinity of the proposed work area shall be marked by wooden stakes or flagging. Once in place, the wetland boundary markers shall be maintained until a Certificate of Compliance has been issued by the Conservation Commission.

18. All sedimentation barriers shall be maintained in good repair until all disturbed areas have been fully stabilized with vegetation or other means. At no time shall sediments be deposited in a wetland or water body. During construction, the applicant or his/her designee shall inspect the erosion controls on a daily basis and shall remove accumulated sediments as needed. The applicant shall immediately control any erosion problems that occur at the site and shall also immediately notify the Conservation Commission, which reserves the right to require additional erosion and/or damage prevention controls it may deem necessary. Sedimentation barriers shall serve as the limit of work unless another limit of work line has been approved by this Order.

19. The work associated with this Order (the “Project”)

(1) is subject to the Massachusetts Stormwater Standards

(2) is NOT subject to the Massachusetts Stormwater Standards

If the work is subject to the Stormwater Standards, then the project is subject to the following conditions:

a) All work, including site preparation, land disturbance, construction and redevelopment, shall be implemented in accordance with the construction period pollution prevention and erosion and sedimentation control plan and, if applicable, the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan required by the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System Construction General Permit as required by Stormwater Condition 8. Construction period erosion, sedimentation and pollution control measures and best management practices (BMPs) shall remain in place until the site is fully stabilized.

b) No stormwater runoff may be discharged to the post-construction stormwater BMPs unless and until a Registered Professional Engineer provides a Certification that:

i. all construction period BMPs have been removed or will be removed by a date certain specified in the Certification. For any construction period BMPs intended to be converted to post construction operation for stormwater attenuation, recharge, and/or treatment, the conversion is allowed by the MassDEP Stormwater Handbook BMP specifications and that the BMP has been properly cleaned or prepared for post construction operation, including removal of all construction period sediment trapped in inlet and outlet control structures;

ii. as-built final construction BMP plans are included, signed and stamped by a Registered Professional Engineer, certifying the site is fully stabilized;

iii. any illicit discharges to the stormwater management system have been removed, as per the requirements of Stormwater Standard 10;

C. General Conditions Under Massachusetts Wetlands Protection Act (cont.)

iv. all post-construction stormwater BMPs are installed in accordance with the plans (including all planting plans) approved by the issuing authority, and have been inspected to ensure that they are not damaged and that they are in proper working condition;

v. any vegetation associated with post-construction BMPs is suitably established to withstand erosion.

c) The landowner is responsible for BMP maintenance until the issuing authority is notified that another party has legally assumed responsibility for BMP maintenance. Prior to requesting a Certificate of Compliance, or Partial Certificate of Compliance, the responsible party (defined in General Condition 18(e)) shall execute and submit to the issuing authority an Operation and Maintenance Compliance Statement (“O&M Statement) for the Stormwater BMPs identifying the party responsible for implementing the stormwater BMP Operation and Maintenance Plan (“O&M Plan”) and certifying the following:

i.) the O&M Plan is complete and will be implemented upon receipt of the Certificate of Compliance, and ii.) the future responsible parties shall be notified in writing of their ongoing legal responsibility to operate and maintain the stormwater management BMPs and implement the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan.

d) Post-construction pollution prevention and source control shall be implemented in accordance with the long-term pollution prevention plan section of the approved Stormwater Report and, if applicable, the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan required by the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System Multi-Sector General Permit.

e) Unless and until another party accepts responsibility, the landowner, or owner of any drainage easement, assumes responsibility for maintaining each BMP. To overcome this presumption, the landowner of the property must submit to the issuing authority a legally binding agreement of record, acceptable to the issuing authority, evidencing that another entity has accepted responsibility for maintaining the BMP, and that the proposed responsible party shall be treated as a permittee for purposes of implementing the requirements of Conditions 19(f) through 19(k) with respect to that BMP. Any failure of the proposed responsible party to implement the requirements of Conditions 19(f) through 19(k) with respect to that BMP shall be a violation of the Order of Conditions or Certificate of Compliance. In the case of stormwater BMPs that are serving more than one lot, the legally binding agreement shall also identify the lots that will be serviced by the stormwater BMPs. A plan and easement deed that grants the responsible party access to perform the required operation and maintenance must be submitted along with the legally binding agreement.

f) The responsible party shall operate and maintain all stormwater BMPs in accordance with the design plans, the O&M Plan, and the requirements of the Massachusetts Stormwater Handbook.

The pipes will remain exposed 1 foot above the ground and the tops shall be capped and spray painted green for future reference. (Not applicable for this project.)

25. Any replication area is to be prepared prior to the destruction of the resource area being replicated.

(Not applicable for this project.)

26. All detention basins and/or retention areas are to be completed before installation of any impervious material or structures discharging surface water runoff.

27. There shall be no stockpiling of soil or other materials within 25 feet of the resource area.

28. Upon completion of construction and grading, all disturbed areas located outside the resource areas shall be stabilized permanently against erosion. This shall be done either by sodding or by loaming, seeding and mulching according to Soil Conservation Standards. If the latter is chosen, stabilization will be considered once the surface shows complete vegetative cover has been achieved.

29. After proper grading, all disturbed areas located within a resource area, except those areas designated as compensatory wetlands, shall be loamed and seeded with not less than four (4) inches of good quality loam and a vegetated cover established.

30. No earthen embankment in the Buffer Zone shall have a slope steeper than 2:1.

31. All facilities and equipment used within or as part of this project shall be continually maintained and operated so as to comply with this Order and the Wetlands Protection Act. No equipment refueling or servicing shall be conducted within 25 linear feet of the project locus.

Good Morning, Please see the responses in red below.

SC #27: With regard to the condition requiring stockpiles be maintained at least 25 feet away from resource areas, we respectfully request that this be revised to state “…as feasible”.

Given the constraints at the site, stockpiling within 25 feet of resource areas will likely be unavoidable for the project to be constructable; however, they can be sited as far from

Resource Areas as feasible. In addition, supplemental protections for stockpiles can be provided (e.g., use of surrounding compost filter tubes and installation of tarps when piles are

Material stockpiling can be reviewed and reviewed on site by the Commission without any need for modification of the approval.

Acknowledged.

SC #13: For the Erosion Control Monitor condition, we respectfully request that the

Commission finds and approves the SWPPP Inspector as a suitable alternative to an Erosion

Control Monitor. We would like to request that SC 13, as well as SC 12, be revised to reflect that the SWPPP Inspector will fulfill this role and would be the individual to certify to the

Commission that all controls are properly in place (in lieu of a P.E.).

The requirement for PE certification needs to remain because of the scale of the project -as a PE would be an individual who has demonstrated technical skills, training and expertise.

Acknowledged. We will plan to have the SWPPP Inspector monitor erosion controls, but are including a requirement in the Special Provisions stating that the Contractor is responsible for hiring a P.E. to certify erosion and sedimentation controls.

The OOC states “N/A” under the DEP File #, but we wanted to inquire about how the

Commission would like to identify the Project under the Bylaw. Taunton provided us with a file number under the local approval so that we could install signage at the site, similar to a

DEP file # sign. Please advise.

Conservation does not currently have a numbering system in place since this is the first time an Order of Conditions was issued only for reasons of Town Bylaw and not DEP. An opinion I received in feedback was to put something along the lines of “Approved by Town of Raynham Wetlands Protection Bylaw Ch. 336 on date: 4-27-2026”. If any further comments come in on my end about that I will let you know.

Acknowledged. The Project Special provisions currently provide this language for the signage.

SC #4: MassDOT and the City of Taunton respects the Commission’s right to inspect the site.

However, we respectfully request that the Commission gives a 24-hour notice before any personnel visit the site. Due to the use of heavy equipment and other threats to safety, we want to ensure that the open construction site is safe for Commission members.

The Commission has no problem providing at least 24 hour notice before any scheduled inspection. Please provide specific information of who is to be contacted and how.

Acknowledged. We can provide the contact information prior to construction.
