The property is on 28,240 st and is in the estuaries zone so you would be allowed to increase to 3 bedrooms max. Please let me know if you have any other questions. Regards, Marybeth McKenzie R.S. 2 From: ED FITZGERALD <topfitz@msn.com> Sent: Monday, April 22, 2024 10:33 AM To: McKenzie, Marybeth <Marybeth.McKenzie@town.barnstable.ma.us> Cc: Gabriella Fitzgerald <gabriella.fitzgerald@verizon.net> Subject: Septic Inquiry - 25 Oxford Drive, Cotuit, MA 02635 Importance: High Good Morning Ms. McKenzie - Background: We have lived at 25 Oxford Drive since we bought the home in early 2017. We had been planning to retire there but unfortunately our life situation has changed. We are starting to get the home ready to sell, and when I contacted the Title V inspector about getting it inspected, I found that I had been misled about the system and its 3 capacity & throughput. The real estate listing in 2017 stated that it was qualified for 3 bedrooms although the home was laid out as a two-bedroom. Further, I was given a 'partial' Title V report which stated all was satisfactory. The pages showing the system size and capacity were left out. Contemplating lawsuit but questioning the likely success. Activity since then: The windows and doors were getting old and leaky so I contracted to have all new windows, doors, and a slider put in, as well as new cedar shingles on the front. The contractor who did that removed one of the two front doors of the home and an old bay window and replaced them with 2 new large Anderson windows, and partitioned off the old living room to be set up as a bedroom. All is to fire code. Picture of before and after shown here: Situation: I would like to replace the existing septic system to be one meeting all the requirements for a 3- bedroom home. I have researched Deed Restrictions, The Barnstable GIS mapping software showing restricted zones and water protection areas, The Water Protection Overlay maps, etc, and I believe I can legally and safely replace the septic to a larger system with your OK. My septic system is in the front yard which is spacious and has no obstructions: 4 Our home is at one of the higher points within the village of Cotuit and was the tenth green (after a long uphill shot) at the King's Grant golf club when it existed: 5 I would like to speak as soon as possible about getting your approval to proceed so that I can get a suitable licensed contractor to follow up with Septic Permitting & Construction and then get the home reclassified with the building department and the Registry of Deeds. Thank you very much for your consideration. I can meet you on site if needed, or speak by phone.

Mr. Kenneth H. Molloy, P.E. RE: MASHPEE--BWSC/SMP Cotuit Waders 106 Falmouth Road 225 Oxford Drive RTN 4-11904 Cotuit, Massachusetts 02635 Dear Mr.Molloy: The Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection, Bureau of Waste Site Cleanup (the Department), recently received your report relative to -the groundwater contaminant plume migrating from the former Augat facility in Mashpee, Massachusetts. The Department shares your concerns relative to groundwater contamination and appreciates the efforts of the Cotuit Waders and other similar groups have taken to ensure that these environmental issues are adequately addressed. It is not uncommon to detect low concentrations of contaminants in surface water when the groundwater is discharging to a surface water body, as it is in this case. The concentrations of tetrachloroethene (PCE) and trichloroethene (TCE) detected in surface water samples QRl and - QR1N/QR2, collected on July 2; 1999, July 30, 1999, September 30, 1999, and October 29, 1999, are all well'below the freshwater..and marine Clean Water Act Aquatic Water Quality Criteria (AWQC) standards for,surface water. These standard values are 5,280 µg/t for freshwater acute,, 840 µg/l for freshwater chronic,,10,200 µg/l for marine acute, and 450 µg/l for marine chronic. Considerable work has been done to delineate the extent of the plume at this site,-including potential impacts to surface water and sediments in Shoestring Bay and further north along Quaker Run, especially in the area where higher concentrations of PCE and TCE within the plume(near the irrigation pond and AW-68) have been detected. Surface water testing in this area indicates no significant changes in contaminant concentrations since first detection and no exceedances of AWQC standards. Extensive testing of both cranberry bog soils and cranberry fruit has also been conducted with no PCE or TCE detected in either soils or fruit. This information is available in alternate format by calling our ADA Coordinator at(617)574-6872. DEP on the World Wide Web: http://www.magnet.state.ma.us/dep Z� Printed on Recycled Paper Mashpee-BWSC/SMP RTN 4-11904 Page 2 of 3 The Department recognizes that dilution and volatilization occur when groundwater contaminated with volatile organic compounds (VOCs) discharges.into a surface water body. In ontamm g p (V ) g y some cases, chlorinated solvents (such as PCE and TCE) will sorb onto, and biodegrade, in the organic muck on the bottom surface of the surface water body. This dilution, volatilization and biodegradation significantly reduce the concentration of the VOCs in the groundwater. In fact, recent changes to the Massachusetts Contingency Plan (MCP) require that surface water and sediment in a surface water body need only be analyzed for VOCs if Non-Aqueous phase liquid (NAPL)is present within 200 feet of the surface water body [see 310 CMR 40.0904(2)(c)J. Therefore, since Quaker Run is within the boundaries of the disposal site (as defined in the MCP) and groundwater is discharging to the surface water, it is not surprising that low concentrations. of VOCs have been detected in the surface water. However, because the concentration of VOCs in the groundwater are. considered low, and NAPL is not present, the discharge of the contaminated groundwater does not represent a substantial hazard to ecological receptors. Recently, the Department sent out a letter approving a long-term monitoring plan for the contaminant plume to maintain the Class C Response Action Outcome. Any significant changes in the configuration of contaminant concentrations in the groundwater would require additional work to be done to ensure that no substantial hazard remains At the site. In addition, last month Thomas and Betts submitted a Class A-1 Response Action Outcome (Class A-1 RAO-P) for the northernmost portion of the site. The Class A-1 RAO-P was submitted because contamination on the northernmost portion of the site has been reduced to background (no VOCs are in the groundwater at the former Augat property). The letter indicates that Thomas and Betts anticipates submitting additional RAO-Ps as treatment and natural processes reduce VOC concentrations farther to the south. In addition, in a December 22, 1999 letter to the Department, Thomas and Betts indicates that a groundwater recovery and treatment system to remediate the lower(southern) portion of the plume is currently being planned for the area along Quinaquisset Avenue. In summary, conditions at the site do not present a substantial hazard to health, safety, public welfare and the environment. Thomas and Betts is continuing to do what is necessary to maintain a condition of no substantial hazard at the site and continues to move the site toward a permanent solution. If you have any questions, please contact Mark Wood at (508) 946-2874 or at the above letterhead address. Sincerely, d O erard M. R.
