PROJECT NARRATIVE
1. Introduction
This Notice of Intent application has been submitted to permit the proposed site improvement
activities associated with the existing single-family home located at 71 Sachem Drive (the site).
The Town of Barnstable Assessors Department references the site Map ID# 209-026. The
proposed project occurs within the 100-foot buffer zone to a Bordering Vegetated Wetland
associated with Long Pond. This application is being submitted in accordance with the
Massachusetts Wetlands Protection Act and Town of Barnstable Wetland Bylaw.
2. Site Description
The site consists of a single-family home with a paved driveway, garage, entrance patio, stone
terrace to the rear, maintained lawn, landscaped areas, etc. The site is located to the south of
Sachem Road and is surrounded by similar single-family homes to the east & west, with Long
Pond to the south. Beyond the yard and landscaped areas to the rear of the home, exists a
sparsely vegetated slope down to Long Pond. Environmental Consulting & Restoration LLC (ECR)
performed a wetland delineation at the site on December 10, 2024. ECR delineated the Inland
Bank to Long Pond and the associated Bordering Vegetated Wetland (BVW) that exists along
some parts of the Pond onsite. Inland Bank flags (blue ribbon) and BVW flags (pink and black
ribbon) were hung along the landward limits of the resource areas in the field. As a result of the
field work and review of available environmental databases, ECR confirms the site contains the
following wetland resource areas and areas of Conservation Commission jurisdiction:
• Bordering Vegetated Wetlands
• Inland Bank to Long Pond
• 100-foot buffer zone to BVW and Inland Bank
A review of the MassMapper wetland database indicates the following:
1. The site is located within an area mapped as Priority Habitat & Estimated Habitat for Rare
Species according to the Massachusetts Natural Heritage & Endangered Species Program
(MaNHESP).
2. The site does not contain or is near a Certified Vernal Pool according to the MaNHESP.
3. The site is not located within an area mapped as Land Subject to Flooding according to the
FEMA Maps.
4. The site does not contain or is near a U.S.G.S. mapped stream.
5. The site is not located within an Area of Critical Environmental Concern (ACEC).
Please note, the proposed project has been reviewed by MaNHESP (NHESP File No. 25-19354).
A letter from MaNHESP has been provided with this application, which indicates the proposed
project will not result in a prohibited Take of state-listed rare species.
3. Proposed Activities
The proposed project includes the addition of a new rinse station, a new fire pit, a new pergola, the
conversion and expansion of the existing stone terrace to a larger porcelain paver terrace and a
four-foot-wide grass pathway to the pond. The proposed project also includes mitigation plantings
to comply with the Town of Barnstable Wetland Regulations. These activities are accessory to the
existing single-family home onsite. Furthermore, the proposed work is located within previously
disturbed portions of the site. The proposed work is located within the 100-foot buffer zone to a
BVW associated with Long Pond. The proposed activities and work sequence are detailed below.
Notice of Intent
71 Sachem Drive, Centerville
- 2 - | P a g e
• Installation of Erosion Controls – Prior to the start of work a siltsock will be installed along
the proposed limit of work to protect the downgradient BVW.
• Proposed Terrace and Pergola – The proposed terrace will replace the existing stone
terrace located to the rear of the home. The existing stone terrace is 546.9 square feet. The
proposed porcelain terraces are 1,239.2 square feet, an increase of 692.3 square feet. The
new terraces are within the footprint of the existing with expansion into the existing
lawn/landscaped portion of the backyard. The proposed pergola will be constructed on the
new terrace. Landscape plantings will be installed around the new terraces as detailed
below. This work is all within a previously developed portion between the 50 and 100-foot
buffer zone to the BVW.
• Proposed Rinse Station & Fire Pit – The proposed rinse station is located at the southwest
corner of the existing home. The new fire pit is proposed to the rear of the home. This new
firepit will replace and existing fire pit that is located much closer to Long Pond. The existing
firepit will be removed by hand and the area restored as part of the proposed path detailed
below. The proposed rinse station and fire pit total 178 square feet in size. This work is also
all within a previously developed portion of the site between the 50 and 100-foot buffer
zone to the BVW.
• Proposed Pathway to Long Pond – The proposed project includes re-establishing a grass
pathway to provide recreational access to Long Pond. The proposed grass pathway will be
four-feet-wide and meander slightly down the slope to the rear of the home. The pathway
will avoid all existing vegetation to the maximum extent possible. The pathway will be
seeded with a conservation seed mix to the extent that is necessary. The existing firepit
within the footprint of the proposed pathway will be removed and the area stabilized with
the conservation seed mix. Three-foot cedar guideposts will be installed by hand along the
pathway.
• Landscape Activities - All disturbed areas surrounding the proposed associated with the
proposed work will be stabilized as lawn/landscaped bed. All landscape plant materials
proposed within the 100-foot buffer zone at the site will consist of native plant species. The
proposed lawn will consist of environmentally friendly grass seed mix that requires little
maintenance needs such as irrigation and fertilization. ECR recommends using a grass
seed mix with a high content of tall fescues, which requires less irrigation and fertilization
needs.
• Proposed Mitigation – In order to comply with Barnstable Wetland Bylaw and associated
Regulations, a mitigation plan has been prepared as part of this project. The plan was
prepared by Elaine M. Johnson and includes the planting locations and species. It has been
calculated that the proposed project results in 870 square feet of additional hardscape
within the 50–100-foot buffer zone. In accordance with section 704-3 of the Barnstable
wetland regulations, mitigation is proposed at a 3:1 ratio, which includes a total of 2,640
square feet of native planting (greater than 3:1 ratio). As specified by the mitigation plan, all
plants will be native, they will be sourced locally, and the sizes and spacing requirements
will follow the Cape Cod Extension Services Recommendations. For more information,
please refer to the attached plan.
4. Summary
Sediment control measures will be implemented and maintained throughout the duration of the
construction process to prevent the conveyance of sedimentation into environmentally sensitive
areas. Disturbed areas will be stabilized upon the completion of work, and if intense rainfall is
Notice of Intent

expected, reinforcing control measures will be installed as needed to protect all wetland resource
areas. The stockpiling of soil or material, if any, shall be located beyond the 50-foot buffer zone
and surrounded by erosion controls as necessary. Erosion control measures shall remain in place
and be maintained until such time that a Certificate of Compliance has been issued by the
Barnstable Conservation Commission, stating that the project has been constructed in accordance
with the conditions set forth in the Order of Conditions. As a result, it is my opinion that the project
protects the Interests of the Massachusetts Wetlands Protection Act and the Town of Barnstable
Wetlands Protection Bylaw for the adjacent Resource Area and the Applicant is entitled to an
Order of Conditions approving the project.
