I have discussed the meaning of"bedroom° under Title 5 standards with the Department of Environmental Protection. Because any appeal at the local level would not be heard by the DEP, they did not want to substitute their opinion for the local Board's opinion and prejudice the Board's case in a Superior Court action, but they did say that they were surprised by your interpretation. Upon further thought, please consider the following: 1. A revised set of house plans that show the opening of the first floor den as 4' in width; 2. A revised set of house plans that depict two (2) bedrooms on the and a game room that shows the opening as 4' in width on the second floor; 3. A revised set of house plans that depict one(1) bedroom on the third floor. Please contact me with you opinion of the suggested revisions to the house plans as soon as possible. The revised house plans would alleviate the privacy issue on the third floor as it would be used as a bedroom. The proposed revised house plans depict a three-bedroom house and would be in compliance With Title 5 Regulations. 1 I FEE-17-00 THU 05:14 FM AMENT & AMENT FAX:5084571293 PAGE 3 r If you agree that the approved Fast System as designed to serve a single family three-bedroom home (two on the second floor and one on the third floor)is adequate for the proposed house, including a second floor"game room", please sign below, where indicated, and fax back to me. ,— Very trul ours, Paula M.

The Public Health Division Office originally received proposed house plans dated June 20, 1999 which showed three bedrooms plus an enclosed den and an enclosed game room on the third floor. On about February 2, 2000 immediately upon it being brought to my attention,I requested revised house plans which showed only three(3)bedrooms,not five. To date I do not believe I have received any revised plans designed by an architect or other professional who is qualified to design such plans. I did receive the original plans again with red ink pen changes made by someone(no initials). One red ink pen mark denotes a four feet opening to the den which adjoins a hallway of only 3'9 1/2" wide. I question how this is possible. The third floor game room also shows a red ink pen change of a four(4)feet opening by someone(no initials). It is unknown what the stairway width would be. It appears that the room as designed meets the bedroom definition according to the Title V,the State Environmental Code. On February 14 2000,I telephoned you and requested a three bedroom deed restriction be recorded. To date,I have not received a response or reply in this regard. On February 15 2000 at 8:20 a.m.,I telephoned Susan Rask,Chairman of the Board of Health and she requests the applicant to appear at the next Board of Health meeting to resolve this bedroom issue on March 13,2000 at 10:30 a.m.. She indicated to me that she believes the variance expired at three years. She also indicated to me that the"game room"is considered a bedroom according to the Title V definition.

I TECHNICAL BULLETIN 2-93 • Flood-Resistant Materials Requirements for Buildings Located In Special Flood Hazard Areas in accordance with the National Flood Insurance Program Introduction The requirement to use construction and finishing materials that are resistant to flood damage in all new and substantially improved buildings in identified Special Flood Hazard Areas (SFHAs) is an important part of the National Flood Insurance Program's (NFIP's) flood-damage-resistant design and construction standards. A residential building's lowest floor is required to be elevated to or above the base flood elevation (BFE). All construction below the lowest floor is susceptible to flooding and must consist of flood-resistant materials. Uses of enclosed areas below the lowest floor in a residential building are limited to parking, building access, and limited stor- age—areas that can withstand inundation by floodwater without sustaining significant structural damage. The purpose of this Technical Bulletin is to provide data and guidance on what constitute"mate- rials resistant to flood damage" and how and when these materials must be used to improve a building's ability to withstand flooding. NFIP Regulations • Section 60.3(a)(3) of the NFIP regulations requires that the community: "Review all permit applications to determine whether proposed building sites will be reasonably safe from flooding. If a proposed building site is in a floodprone area, all new construction and substantial improvements shall...(ii) be constructed with materials resis- tant to flood damage..." It should be noted that Technical Bulletins provide guidance on the minimum requirements of the NFIP regulations. Community or State requirements that exceed those of the NFIP take precedence. Design professionals should contact the community to determine whether more restrictive local or State regulations apply to the building or site in question. All applicable standards of the State or local building code must also be met for any building in a flood hazard area. Required Use of Flood-Resistant Materials Flood-Resistant Material "Flood-resistant material"is defined as any building material capable of withstanding direct and prolonged contact with floodwaters without sustaining significant damage. The term"prolonged contact"means at least 72 hours, and the term"significant damage"means any damage requiring more than low-cost cosmetic repair (such as painting). 1 1 As stated previously, all structural and non-structural building materials at or below the BFE must be flood resistant. This requirement applies regardless of the expected or historic • flood duration. For example, buildings in coastal areas that experience relatively short-duration flooding (generally, flooding with a duration of less than 24 hours) must be constructed with flood-resistant materials below the BFE. As noted in the tables within this bulletin, only Class 4 and Class 5 materials are acceptable for areas below the BFE in floodprone buildings. In some instances, Class 1, 2, and 3 materials may be permitted below the BFE, when specifi- cally required to meet local building code provisions concerning life-safety issues. In below- BFE applications, materials that meet life-safety code requirements and have maximum resis- tance to damage from flood inundation should be used. This applies to the flood-resistant re- quirements only. In Zones V, VE, and V IN30, the installation of such materials may create an obstruction. Because obstructions in V zones could result in structural failure of the building, they represent a life-safety issue and shall therefore take precedence over local building codes. Refer to Technical Bulletin 5, "Free of Obstruction Requirements," for further information. Lowest Floor Under the NFIP,the term"lowest floor"is used to define the lowest level of a building that must be located at or above the BFE as required under Sections 60.3(c)(2) and (3) of the NFIP regula- tions. The floodplain management regulations, under Section 60.3(c)(5), limit the use of all areas below the lowest floor to parking of vehicles, storage, and building access. These reason- able uses below the BFE are permitted because the amount of damage caused by flooding to these areas can easily be kept to a minimum if design and construction requirements contained in the NFIP regulations are met. Failure to meet the requirements can increase the building's • damage potential and result in the application of higher flood insurance premiums. The require- ment to use flood-resistant materials means that all interior wall, floor, and ceiling materials located below the BFE be unfinished and resistant to flood damage. This is meant to exclude the use of materials and finishes normally associated with living areas constructed above the BFE. Flood Insurance Implication An NFIP flood insurance requirement regarding the use of materials in areas below the BFE must also be considered. Flood insurance will not pay a claim for finishing materials (such as clay floor tiles) located in basements or in enclosed areas below the lowest floor of an elevated building, even if such materials are considered to be flood resistant. The NFIP defines finishing materials as anything beyond basic wall construction. Flood-Resistant Classification of Materials The information in this Technical Bulletin is based primarily on the U.S. Army Corps of Engi- neers (COE) 1992 "Flood Proofing Regulations:" The following table (Table 1) classifies building materials according to their ability to resist flood damage. i 2 L • Table 1 Flood-Resistant Classification of Materials N F I Class Class Description P A C 5 Highly resistant to floodwater damage. Materials C within this class are permitted for partially enclosed E or outside uses with essentially unmitigated flood P exposure. T A 4 Resistant to floodwater damage. Materials within B this class may be exposed to and/or submerged in floodwaters in interior spaces and do not require • E special waterproofing protection. U 3 Resistant to clean water damage. Materials within N this class may be submerged in clean water during A periods of intentional flooding. C C 2 Not resistant to water damage. Materials within this E class require essentially dry spaces that may be r P subject to.water vapor and slight seepage. T A 1 Not resistant to water damage. Materials within this B class require conditions of dryness. L E Source: COE 1992 "Floodproofing Regulations" 3 Flooring Materials Table 2 lists flooring materials commonly used in construction that fall within the five classes • described in Table 1. Not all available construction and finishing materials are listed. For prod— ucts not listed herein, manufacturers' literature should be reviewed for recommended uses. Such recommendations must be complied with fully. All masonry and wood products used in floodprone buildings must comply with the applicable materials standards of the nationally recognized standards organizations, such as the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), the American Concrete Institute (ACI), and the American Wood Products Association (AWPA). Basis for Classification of Flooring Materials The classification of flooring materials is based on their vulnerability to damage from inundation by floodwaters. Class 1, 2, and 3 flooring materials are not acceptable for below-BFE applica- tions for one or more of the following reasons: • Normal suspended-floor adhesives specified for above-grade use are water soluble or are not resistant to alkali or acid in water, including ground seepage and vapor. • n products Flooring materials contain wood and wood g • Flooring materials are not resistant to alkali or acid in water. • Sheet-type floor coverings (linoleum, rubber, and vinyl)restrict evaporation from below. • Flooringmaterials are impervious but dimensionally unstable.

Not all available construction and finishing materials are listed. For products not listed herein, manufacturers' literature should be reviewed for recommended uses. Such recommendations must be complied with fully. All masonry and wood products used in floodprone buildings must comply with the applicable materials standards of the nationally recognized standards organizations, such as the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), the American Concrete Institute (ACI), and the American Wood Products Association (AWPA). Basis for Classification of Wall and Ceiling Materials The classification of wall and ceiling materials is based on their vulnerability to damage from inundation by floodwaters. Class 1, 2, and 3 wall and ceiling materials are not acceptable for below-BFE applications for one or more of the following reasons: • Normal adhesives specified for above-grade use are water soluble or are not resistant to alkali or acid in water, including ground seepage and vapor. • Wall and ceiling material contains wood, wood products, gypsum products, or other material that dissolves or deteriorates, loses structural integrity, or is adversely affected by water. • Wall or ceiling material is not resistant to alkali or acid in water. • • Wall or ceiling material is impervious but is dimensionally unstable. 1 • Wall or ceiling materials absorb or retain water excessively after submergence. • 7 Table 3 Walls and Ceiling Materials Classifications for Flood Resistance • Classes of Walls and Ceilings Types of Wall and Ceiling Materials Acceptable Unacceptable 5 4 3 2 1 Asbestos-cement board (and cement board1) • Brick, face or glazed • Common • ...................................................................... ............... .................................... ................................................. .................................... ................................. ............... .................................... ................................................. .................................... ................................. ............... s built-in Cabinets,Wood • Meta I . • Cast stone (in waterproof mortar) • ...................................................................... ............... .....................................%....... ...... h Ik C a boards Slate, porcelain glass, nucite glass • Cement-asbestos • Composition, painted • • Chipboard • Exterior sheathing grade • .. . . . .. ... . .. . .. ..... .. ................................................... ............... .................................... ................................................. til Clay e Structural glazed • Ceramic veneer, ceramic wall tile-mortar set • Ceramic veneer, organic adhesives • Concrete • Concrete block • Corkboard • ...................................................................... ............... .................................... ................................................. ............................... ...............

The NFIP regulations require that the lowest floor be at or above the BFE. The construction method illus- trated in Figure 1 meets this requirement. Note, however, that the flooring materials and sup- porting wood members are at or below the BFE. Therefore, in Figure 1, all materials supporting the lowest floor, including the flooring itself, must be made of flood-resistant materials. To maximize the use of the area below the lowest floor, it is a common floodplain construction technique to elevate a building a full story (approximately 8 feet), even though the BFE may only be 4 or 5 feet above grade. In such cases, while the NFIP regulations require that Class 4 or. 5 building materials be used below the BFE, FEMA strongly recommends that Class 4 or Class 5 materials also be used for the construction of the remainder of the buildingbelow the 1 eowes t floor. Flood damage from a greater-than-design flood event will thereby be reduced in the lower area.

Flood-Resistant Material Requirements for Buildings Elevated in Accordance with NFIP Requirements for Zones V, VE, and V 1—V30 Accessory Buildings Some communities permit the construction of low-cost, small detached accessory buildings (e.g., garages, storage sheds)with a lowest floor elevation below the BFE (Technical Bulletin 5, "Free- of-Obstruction Requirements,"provides definitions of"low-cost" and "small"). The below-BFE portions of such buildings must be constructed of flood-resistant materials so that flood damage will be minimized. Additional construction requirements for these buildings, such as the need to anchor the building to resist flotation, collapse,and lateral movement, also must be met before the building is permitted and built. For additional information about these requirements, contact the community that has permitting jurisdiction. Wet Floodproofing • Wet floodproofing is designing a building to allow floodwaters to enter in order to equalize hydrostatic forces. The NFIP does not allow wet floodproofing in lieu of meeting the lowest 13 floor elevation requirements. However, in situations where the NFIP regulations do not apply, such as voluntary floodproofing of an existing (Pre-FIRM) building not in association with substantial improvements, the use of flood-resistant materials is advisable. Using flood-resistant materials will make cleanup and repair following a flood much easier and less costly than if the floodprone areas are constructed of non-flood-resistant materials. The NFIP The NFIP was created by Congress in 1968 to provide federally backed flood insurance cover- age, because flood insurance was generally unavailable from private insurance companies. The NFIP is also intended to reduce future flood losses by identifying floodprone areas and ensuring that new development in these areas is adequately protected from flood damage. The NFIP is based on an agreement between the federal government and participating communities that have been identified as floodprone. FEMA, through the Federal Insurance Administration (FIA), makes flood insurance available to the residents of a participating community provided that the community adopts and enforces adequate floodplain management regulations that meet the minimum NFIP requirements. The NFIP encourages communities to adopt floodplain manage- ment ordinances that exceed the minimum NFIP criteria. Included in the NFIP requirements, found under Title 44 of the U.S. Code of the Federal Regulations, are minimum building design and construction standards for buildings located in SFHAs.. Through their floodplain manage- ment ordinances, communities adopt the NFIP,design performance standards for new and sub- stantially improved buildings located in floodprone areas identified on FIA's FIRMs. Technical Bulletins This is one of a series of Technical Bulletins FEMA has produced to provide guidance concern- ing the building performance standards of the NFIP. These standards are contained in Title 44 of the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations at Section 60.3. The bulletins are intended for use prima- rily by State and local officials responsible for interpreting and enforcing NFIP regulations and by members of the development community, such as design professionals and builders. New, bulletins, as well as updates of existing bulletins, are issued periodically, as necessary. The bulletins do not create regulations; rather they provide specific guidance for complying with the minimum requirements of existing NFIP regulations. Users of the Technical Bulletins who need additional guidance concerning NFIP regulatory requirements should contact the Natural Haz- ards Branch of the appropriate FEMA regional office. The "User's Guide to Technical Bulle- tins" lists the bulletins issued to date and provides a key word/subject index for the entire series. Ordering Information Copies of the Technical Bulletins can be obtained from the appropriate FEMA regional office. Technical Bulletins can also be ordered from the FEMA publications warehouse. Use of FEMA Form 60-8 will result in a more timely delivery from the warehouse— the form can be obtained from FEMA regional offices and your state's Office of Emergency Management.

Gatewood FAX 508-775-3344 Conservation Administrator TO: Tom McKeon, Director, Health Dept. FROM: Robert W. Gatewood RE: Heritage Research Project DATE: February 19, 1993 In response to your questions: is the project locus in a velocity zone, how is that determination made, and finally, why didn't the Conservation Department/Commission request FEMA's perspective. . . 1. As we determine, the septic and house o� the proposed Heritage Research project reside in an A zone (subject to stillwater flooding) , and not a velocity zone. 2 . In delineating velocity pursuant to wetland protection regulations, we rely upon the FIRM panel for the given area. The velocity zone from the FIRM panel, when rendered as an overlay (at corresponding scale) upon the site plan is determinative. Seaward of the V-zone line is within, landward is outside of the velocity zone. 3 . We felt to require a site-specific velocity zone delineation by FEMA using a new (and narrowly applied) dune cross-section method would be inappropriate. Floodplain mapping should be done in broad, accurate strokes, rather than a little bit here (followed by a requisite FIRM panel revision) , a little bit there (followed by, you guessed it, another FIRM panel revision) . I feel strongly that when FEMA is ready to apply its new method to the Barnstable coastline, it should proceed in one grand townwide effort, and revise all our panels at once. Otherwise we face a waste of federal tax dollars and perhaps the risk of unnecessary regulatory burden upon our applicants. The Board of Health may have good reason to require the re- analysis of the velocity zone at the locus. We don't discourage them. AertRee. The BOH should not grant a variance to its regulation prohibiting new septic systems in shifting sands for the following reasons: The Handbook for Local Officials for Projects in the Floodplain issued by . the Commonwelath of Massachusetts Executive Office of Environmental Affairs , Flood Hazard Management Program gives the. following guidance to BOHs when reviewing projects in the floodplain. It states (p. 21) that FEMA/NFIP regulations 44 CFk 60. 3 (a) (5) require that 1) new and replacement sanitary sewage systems be designed to minimize or eliminate infiltration of flood waters into the systems and discharges from the systems into flood waters and 2) on-site waste disposal systems be located to avoid impairment to them or contamination from them during flooding. These requirements shouldbe met if a community participates in the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) . The Handbook further advises that BOHs review whether the project is located in a Velocity Zone (based on FEMA FIRM maps) and notes that Massachusetts Coastal Zone Management g ment recommends against placing septic systems in velocity zones, especially systems requiring the mounding up of soil around the system. The seaward portion of the lot in question is located in a V10 zone. The more landward portion of the lot, and the area where the septic system is proposed to be placed, is mapped on the FIRM maps Ur,>�as an A13 zone..—��T e predicted. 100 year storm stillwater flood is A0 7) at elevation 11. The BOH is concerned that in a 100 year flood zkrtl virtually the entire lot will be under water as only a very small portion of the lot lies above elevation 11. The BOH also has concerns that the seaward barrier dune is not an effective barrier to flood storm surges and wave action. The BOH has reason to suspect that the entire lot may in fact be a velocity zone, although a portion is mapped as an A13 zone. This is because of the so-called 11540 square foot" rule: FEMA 44 CFR Parts 59 , 60, 61, 65, 70 and 72 National Flood Insurance Program; Flood Plain Management Standards. These rules (Federal Register vol . 53 no. 88 , 1988) state that "the cross ional area of the dune , as m_Qasured from the ocean si e of the dune crest and above the 100 year stillwate ood elevation mus e 0 s uare fee er for --be to be considered effective in attenuatin wave ac r�--U�der-the rule all dunes with a cross sec Iona areas �r er 540 sgaure feet will be treated as completely eroded during the 100 year storm in the preparation of FIRMs. Such a dune will not be credited with offering any protection against -flooding or wave action n areas to the landward side of that dune.For dunes with a cross-sectional area smaller than the 540 square feet , the methods used t determine the areas subject to wave action will be employed as if the dune did not exist" . It appears to the BOH that the barrier dune is less than 540 square feet and the applicant has not provided any information that the dune is greater than 540 square feet. Since the most recent Barnstable FIRM maps were 1 prepared prior to this 1988 rule (Check Map Year to make sure this is true! ) it is possible that a portion of the lot is incorrectly mapped as being an A13 zone and is in fact a velocity zone. The BOH believes it is not in the interests of public health to allow new septic systems to be placed in shifting sand. The entire lot in question appears to be a coastal dune which by its nature and under normal daily conditions is composed of constantly shifting sand. Further, it appears as though the entire lot may be a velocity zone which would result in the movement of large volumes of sand during a major storm event, with the possible uncovering and destruction of the septic system. 6 - 5 1 WED 1 219 AUEREY r0MSULT I Nr I H P _ 02 W • ° AL3E3REY CONSULTING, INC, • 'i G January 1993 'Attorney Albert Schultz 7 Parker Rd 0stcrville, MA 02655 Rc: Horn property Long Beach Road Map 206/Paricel 17 Ik.ar Mr. Schultz: Aubrey Consulting, Inc, (AQ has been asked submit comments concerning the proposed bouse constniction on Long Beach toad designated as Map 206/Parcel 17, The con ' cerrj centers afound the geologic classification of the property and the potential impact of the septic system A.S.i0ciated with the new house, ACI had the opportunity to visit the site and make a preliminary assessment. The following summarizes my opinion of the proposed construction. Characterization in brief Long Beach has been designated as a barrier beach by Massachusetts Coastal Zone Management. The majority of the eastern one-third of the barrier beach is heavily developed with single family homes. This section of the barrier beach is heavily anno�red along both the C'. ,rrtcrville River and Centerville,Harbor shorelines. The western two-thirds of the barrier beach is ir itnarily undevetapod vvi(h few shore protection structures. Most of the developed section of harrier beachsituated behind the seawall,while classified as a dune is not presently functioning as a'dune nor has it functioned'as such f6r decades however, the seawall ends several hundred feet west of the Horn property. The only storm damage protectiob is provided by the small fronting dune. The developed section'of barrier T beach has been classified by the Federal Emergency vtanagen�ent Agency (FEMA) as an "A" zone because of the fronting seawall. The difference between an "A" end a "V" zone is that a "V" may sustain a 3-foot wave during a 10-year flood, 1~'I'MA typically designates low dune type areas as an "A" zone when there are shore protection str►,rotres present. Specifically,FEMA referred to the continuous seawall which fronts all of the h6o,;ds along Centerville Harbor and Nantucket Sound. The Centerville River side of the barrier beach.will not allow the formation of large waves during a 100-year starts. Although the river provides access for flood waters, there is extremely . limited fetch. Limited fetch means that there rs a strrall distance for wave generation. Therefore, a 3-foot wave cannot be generated on the fiver. Because of extensive and permanent development,a 3-foot wave cannot overt o the barrier from the south,either.• This means that during a 100-year flood waves will trot be a factor. potential damage will only occur as a result of the rise and fall of flood waters. �;he,�hifns Property, . The proposed house is located on the. Centerville Harbor/Nantucket Sound d side of the e bal rrier island adjacent to the Beach Club and is located behind a small fronting drtne. The area Y. f.

The fIorn property and the adjacent property located to the west are heavily vegetated with Cape American beach grass, 'rep 1cd Jdouse flan During th6 site.visit we'discussed the impacts of structures on the migration of a barrier �cach and dune system. It is our understanding that the proposed house will be elevated on pilings a.hnve the 100 year flood elevation. The only permanent structure located on the dune will be the Sortie holding tank and leaching field. rQ1.C.itial impacts of the Proposed Structure t State regulations require that'any construction on a dune/barrier beach should have a minimum impact on*the transport of sand by aeolian and overwash processes. The present Massachusetts Title 5 and DEP Southeast Region guidelines require new structure septic systems to meet Title 5. Addidonally,DEP Southeast Region requites that septic'structures loc?tcd in dune 4ia subjected to;unc'overing by overwashing or wind scour maintain the 1 ft vegetated cover. Septic systems located on barrier beaches in FEMA "V" zones are generally prohibited, 1 As stated,'theTroperty is located in a FEMA "A" zone and is protected by a small fronting One. FEMA and U Amiy Carps of Engineers have published guidelines that a fronting dune should be considered protection from waves and storm damage only when the cross-section area of the clime above the 100-year flood elevation exceeds 540 ft2. The small fronting dune on the Hom pa cperty does not have a cross-sectional area above the 100-year flood elevation which exceeds 50 0. In conclusiQn, the primary impact concerning the proposed house center around the septic Fiee"mt . This eonicern regul 's that minimumTitle 5 sand cover over the septic tank and leachinld be maintained. .Addrtionally,�we are concerned thafthis property is a'IV"zone and not art "A" lone because th.e fronting dune does not meet the minimum criteria to provide protection during a JM-year storm, 'If this area is a "V" zone,the septic'systetn will most likely become exposed or destroyed during a 100-year storm, Based on the plans showing the topography,nay site visit,and fi .the 540 ft2 dune c'ross-sectional area criteria; it is my opinion that this property should be classified as a "V" zone, If the area is a 'IV" zone the project should not be permitted and is not permzttable under the Massachusetts wetlands regulations, Therefore, it is recommended that the Town ask PEMA for a reevaluation of thi flood zone designation for this lot to verify its FE3MA flood zone Oa.5sifieation. FEMA reevaluatlon of a lot can be requested at no cost to the Town. Sincerely, Lee L. Weishar,PhD. Coastal Engineer GROUNDWATER ZONE: AQUIFER PROTECTION OVERLAP DISTRICT LONG BEACH ROAD NOTES 1.
