C. Further Evaluation is Required by the Board of Health:
Conditions exist which require further evaluation by the Board of Health in order to determine if the system is failing to
protect public health,safety or the environment.
1. System will pass unless Board of Health determines in accordance with 310 CMR 15.303(1)(b)that the system is not
functioning in a manner which will protect public health,safety and the environment:
_ Cesspool or privy is within 50 feet of a surface water
_ Cesspool or privy is within 50 feet of a bordering vegetated wetland or a salt marsh
2. System will fail unless the Board of Health(and Public Water Supplier,if any)determines that the
system is functioning in a manner that protects the public health,safety and environment:
_ The system has a septic tank and soil absorption system(SAS)and the SAS is within 100 feet of a surface water
supply or tributary to a surface water supply.
The system has a septic tank and SAS and the SAS is within a Zone 1 of a public water supply.
_ The system has a septic tank and SAS and the SAS is within 50 feet of a private water supply well.
_ The system has a septic tank and SAS and the SAS is less than 100 feet but 50 feet or more from a private water
supply well".Method used to determine distance
"This system passes if the well water analysis,performed at a DEP certified laboratory,for coliform bacteria and volatile
organic compounds indicates that the well is free from pollution from that facility and the presence of ammonia nitrogen
and nitrate nitrogen is equal to or less than 5 ppm,provided that no other failure criteria are triggered.A copy of the

You must indicate"yes"or"no"to each of the following for all inspections:
Yes No
_X_ Backup of sewage into facility or system component due to overloaded or clogged SAS or cesspool
—X— Discharge or ponding of effluent to the surface of the ground or surface waters due to an overloaded or
clogged SAS or cesspool
_X_ Static liquid level in the distribution box above outlet invert due to an overloaded or clogged SAS or cesspool
_X_ Liquid depth in cesspool is less than 6"below invert or available volume is less than''/z day flow
—X— Required pumping more than 4 times in the last year NOT due to clogged or obstructed pipe(s).Number
of times pumped
_X_ Any portion of the SAS,cesspool or privy is below high ground water elevation.
—X— Any portion of cesspool or privy is within 100 feet of a surface water supply or tributary to a surface
water supply.
X Any portion of a cesspool or privy is within a Zone 1 of a public well.
_X_ Any portion of a cesspool or privy is within 50 feet of a private water supply well.
—X—Any portion of a cesspool or privy is less than 100 feet but greater than 50 feet from a private water supply well with no
acceptable water quality analysis. [This system passes if the well water analysis,performed at a DEP certified
laboratory,for coliform bacteria and volatile organic compounds indicates that the well is free from pollution
from that facility and the presence of ammonia nitrogen and nitrate nitrogen is equal to or less than 5 ppm,
provided that no other failure criteria are triggered.A copy of the analysis must be attached to this form.]
No (Yes/No)The system fails.I have determined that one or more of the above failure criteria exist as described in 310
CMR 15.303,therefore the system fails.The system owner should contact the Board of Health to determine what will
be necessary to correct the failure.
E. Large Systems:
To be considered a large system the system must serve a facility with a design flow of 10,000 gpd to 15,000 gpd.

the system is located in a nitrogen sensitive area(Interim Wellhead Protection Area—IWPA)or a mapped Zone
II of a public water supply well
If you have answered"yes"to any question in Section E the system is considered a significant threat,or answered"yes"in Section
D above the large system has failed. The owner or operator of any large system considered a significant threat under Section E or
failed under Section D shall upgrade the system in accordance with 310 CMR 15.304.The system owner should contact the

You must indicate"yes"or"no"to each of the following for all inspections:
Yes No
Backup of sewage into facility or system component due to overloaded or clogged SAS or cesspool
— —X— Discharge or ponding of effluent to the surface of the ground or surface waters due to an overloaded or
clogged SAS or cesspool
— —X_ Static liquid level in the distribution box above outlet invert due to an overloaded or clogged SAS or cesspool
_X_ Liquid depth in cesspool is less than 6"below invert or available volume is less than''/z day flow
—X_ Required pumping more than 4 times in the last year NOT due to clogged or obstructed pipe(s).Number
of times pumped
Any portion of the SAS,cesspool or privy is below high ground water elevation.
_X_ Any portion of cesspool or privy is within 100 feet of a surface water supply or tributary to a surface
water supply.

Operation&Maintenance Requirements
Dear Mr.King:
As you are the owner of an alternative on-site sewage treatment and disposal system regulated under Title 5
of the State Environmental Code, 310 CMR 15.000,I am writing to remind you of your operation and maintenance
obligations.According to the Department of Environmental Protection's records,a RUCK system has been installed
at the above referenced location. The Department's approval for this system requires that, throughout the system's
life, the system owner must maintain an agreement with a person or firm competent in providing services consistent
with.the system's specifications, the operation and maintenance required by the designer and any specified by the
Department. In addition; every time the operator or operators are changed, the owner must notify the Department
and the local Board of Health,in writing,within seven days of such change.
The Department has received information indicating that you are no longer under contract with an
operation and maintenance firm in violation of your system approval. Please notify the Department, in writing,
within fourteen days of receipt of this letter,of the name of the new operator for your system and submit a copy of
your current contract.Failure to comply with this request may result in enforcement action by the Department

Re: O.R.E. Associates, Inc. -113 Falling Leaf Lane, Osterville
Subdiv. #518, Lot 15 —Application to Board of Health
Our File Ref: #2002-0168
Dear Mr. Dow:
I am writing this as a follow-up to our conversation of yesterday, June 20t', 2002.
After our conversation, I reread the Board of Health's unappealed October 7,
1997 decision regarding the Falling Leaf Lane subdivision. It continues to be my
opinion that it is clearly stated that no permit shall issue for so-called"Lot 15." You
acknowledge in your letter to me dated June 20, 2002 that you failed to appeal the
decision with knowledge of its terms vis a vis, Lot 15.. You have requested that I
provide you "proof" that O.R.E. Associates, Inc. made representations concerning Lot
"15". In light of the terms of the unappealed decision, I do not believe that at this
juncture, such "proof' is required, although I was present at all the hearings held in
1996 and 1997 and there is no doubt in my mind that such representations were made.
You suggested in the course of our conversation that it might be desirable to '
discuss this matter in a face-to-face meeting. Please contact me should you desire to
schedule such a meeting.
Thank you for your consideration of this matter.
Sincerely Yours,

RE: Alternative On-Site Sewage Treatment
Monitoring-and-Reporting Requirement
"Fill Leaf}Lane;Barnstable'
DEP Faclli No%RUCK08 "
Dear Mr.King:
The Department has received a letter from Innovative RUCK Systems, Inc., dated May 2, 2000 requesting reduction or
elimination of monitoring and reporting of pH,BOD,TSS,and TN on a quarterly basis on the effluent from the alternative on-site
sewage treatment and disposal system at the above referenced facility.' The Department's-Renewal of Certification for General
Use for the technology, in section IV (6)(1), states "After one year of monitoring and at the written request of the owner the
Department may reduce the monitoring requirements."
The Department, having reviewed the monitoring data for this technology, in general, and for your system, approves
your request to reduce effluent monitoring of the system, from four times to one time per year. This revised annual effluent
sampling requires testing TN only.The change in monitoring requirements in no way 9hanges the requirement that,throughout its
use, the system shall be under an operation and maintenance agreement with a rson or firm qualified to provide services
consistent with the system's specifications. This reduction in monitoring requirements is conditioned upon your continued
compliance with the Approval. As another condition of allowing you to reduce effluent monitoring,however, by January 31 of
/ . each year,you must submit to Department an annual report for the calendar year that includes: 1) a description of the operation
of the system;2) system inspection and emergency service information; 3) any other pertinent information that describes the
condition of the system; and 4)results of the annual effluent monitoring for TN. The report wall be prepared by the operator
contracted to inspect and maintain the system. Additionally, as required by the Approval for the system, any time the operator
changes,you shall notify the Department and the local approving authority,in writing,within seven days of such change.
Please be aware this change in monitoring does not apply to any local requirements. You should discuss any changes
from the local monitoring requirements,if any apply to your system,with your local Board of Health officials.
Should you have any questions regarding this matter,please contact Steven H.Corr,of my staff,at(617)292-5920.

Dear Mr. Corr:
RE Request for Action to Determine Lethal Materials Apparently
Found in On-site RUCK Septic Systems
and Report of Attempt to resolve Noncomplying RUCK Systems
--------------------------------------------------------------
As I have promised the Department, we have investigated
several failures of Residential RUCK systems to meet the
required discharge levels of Total Nitrogen concentration as
measured in the distribution box. In discussing the increasing
number of failures with a soap manufacturer, we were told that
the Total Nitrogen in laundry soap was increasing due to more
D additives being added to soap to promote better cleaning. We
had planned to test the concept of installing a recycle line by
adding a recycle pump in the gray water tank. The recycle pump
would periodically pump gray water effluent into the black
water tank. Such an add-on to the system would lower the Total
Nitrogen concentrations by about half.
-� We interviewed three owners of houses with nonconforming
systems . It became apparent that a particular brand of laundry
soap was being used and it has a label on the box stating that
it kills 99. 90 of the bacteria in the laundry.
During the planning for the steps to lower the Total
Nitrogen in the existing RUCK systems with too high
concentrations of Total Nitrogen, we had focused on adding a
recycle pump in the gray water tank. The recycle pump would
periodically pump gray water effluent into the black water
tank. In order to verify that this recycling would work, I
approached the owners of Lot 25 on Falling Leaf Lane in
Barnstable and asked if we could perform an experiment where
our technician would pump, with a portable submersible pump,
one third the contents of the gray water tank into the black
water tank daily for three days . This would mimic the operation
of a recycle pump. Prior to the initial pumping, a sample of
r.� printed on recycled paper
T 1 I
DEP Steve Corr. P.E. - 2 - November
o ember 10, 2000
the effluent was to be taken from the black water septic tank,
the gray water septic tank and the distribution box. After the
three days of pumping, then we would test the gray water septic
tank and distribution box. Simultaneously the homeowners were
furnished free laundry soap with little or no nitrogen content.
We had predicted that the recycled effluent would have
almost all nitrate denitrified and that the filter would
nitrify the recycled organic nitrogen and ammonia compounds .
The new laundry soap has significant concentrations of
available carbon so denitrification would be enhanced. Total
nitrogen in the final effluent after recycling should drop a
minimum of about 50% and perhaps reach 70% .
Initially, we gathered a grab sample from the system black
water, gray water septic tank and the distribution box on
October 30, 2000. The samples were delivered to Groundwater
Analytical . The test results of the samples (copies enclosed)
are listed below:
All constituents in milligrams per liter
BLACK WATER GRAY WATER D-BOX
BOD 54 27 35
DTSS 100 30 83
NO3 BRL 7 15
NH3, NH4 85 15 19
TKN 170 22 31
The results indicate that the Total Nitrogen in the
wastewater stream is as follows :
All constituents in milligrams per liter
BLACK WATER GRAY WATER D-BOX
TN 170 29 46
The Total Nitrogen in the system influent is approximately
99 milligrams per liter. This number is approximate since
denitrification occurs in the gray water septic tank.
There is sufficient BOD for denitrification to occur in
the gray water tank. The nitrate concentration should be lower.
Since denitrification did not occur and we have the four
conditions for denitrification to occur; an anaerobic
environment, bacteria, time, temperature and a carbon source,
one of the required conditions is missing. Since we have an
anaerobic environment in the gray water tank, time, temperature
and sufficient BOD (carbon) , then the bacteria must be missing.
DEP, Steve Corr. P.E. - 3 - November 10, 2000
The TKN concentrations are higher than typically found in
gray water prior to 1998 . If the nitrate was denitrified, the
total nitrogen concentration in the gray water tank would have
been 22 milligrams per liter and the total nitrogen
concentration in the distribution box would have been 31
milligrams per liter.
Our technician then did pump, with a portable submersible
pump, one third the contents of the gray water tank into the
black water tank daily for three days from October 30, 2000
until November 2, 2000 . A grab sample was then taken from the
effluent in the black water septic tank, gray water septic tank
and the distribution box. The samples were delivered to
Groundwater Analytical. The results of the samples (copies
enclosed) are listed below:
All constituents in milligrams per liter
GRAY WATER D-BOX
BOD 51 13
TSS 66 21
NO3 BRL 0 . 49
NH3, NH4 27 32
DTKN 59 66
Additionally the technician grabbed a sample from the gray
water tank and had it tested for Heterotrophic plate count. The
results were >60, 000 colonies per milliliter.
The predicted effect of the pumping should have been a
decrease in Total Nitrogen concentrations . The RUCK filter
should have nitrified the increased flow by 90% to 95% . The
input of Total Nitrogen from gray water influent into the gray
water septic tanks should have been minimal if the homeowner
used the provided laundry soap. The TKN concentration should
have decreased and the nitrate concentration should have
dropped. The increase of TKN from 22 to 59 milligrams per liter
as a result of the pumping indicates a failure to nitrify. The
result of pumping the gray water through the RUCK filter is the
apparent loss of nitrification which implies the destruction of
the nitrifiers, the bacteria that exist in the RUCK filter.
Since we did not expect the bactericide to be present, we did
not test the black water septic tank after pumping. Since the
filter is capable of 90% to 95% nitrification even under shock
loads, the failure of nitrifiers is dramatic. The increase of
Total Nitrogen in the distribution box from 46 to 66 milligrams
per liter is unexpected. The increase of Total Nitrogen in the
j 1 n
DEP, Steve Corr. P.E. - 4 - November 10, 2000
gray water septic tank from 22 to 59 milligrams per liter
indicates that a significantly toxic agent is in the system and
that it has caused a failure of the system.
Since the new furnished laundry soap has caused
significant increases in population of HPC counts on the
Lunenburg RUCK CFT systems, the toxic compound continues to
exist in the system in sufficient concentrations to inhibit
bacterial growth. The concentration of the toxic compound has
survived the recycling and is still lethal to bacteria. The
concentration of the toxic compound is still lethal after
exposure to both an aerobic and anaerobic environment. Such
bacteria are necessary for the continued operation of RUCK
systems. Such bacteria are necessary for the continued
operation of any on site septic systems .
My conclusions are as follows:
1 . A toxic substance apparently exists in this system that
apparently has killed off the bacteria in the gray water
tank limiting denitrication. It appears that the laundry
soap used by the homeowners may be the cause of the
mortality to bacteria.
D2 . A toxic substance apparently exists in this system and
continues to exist in lethal concentrations after recycling
the effluent to a black water septic tank and an aerobic
sand filter.
3 . The existence of toxic compound holds threat to the
continued operation of RUCK systems .
4 . Since the operation of the RUCK systems mimics the
environment below a soil absorption system in that the four
foot deep RUCK filter is equivalent to the standard vertical
offset to ground water from the bottom of the soil
absorption system in a traditional septic system, whatever
toxic compound that exists in this tested system could
easily reach the ground water from effluent from a
traditional septic system.
5. In other RUCK installations, users are free to use bleach,
an obvious toxic compound, and that no adverse effects of
the use of bleach in a RUCK system have been found.
6. Whatever toxic compound exists threatens the continued
successful operation and use of on-site systems .
DEP, Steve Corr. P.E. - 5 - November 10, 2000
7 . Since RUCK systems are only installed in environmentally
sensitive areas such as areas with ground water supplying
drinking waters the toxic compound and is most likely
reaching the ground water and that its effect on the
environment is unknown.
I ask the Department of Environmental Protection, the
County of Barnstable and the Town to retest this system and
other such systems using this brand of soap and to investigate
to see if this particular laundry soap is the cause of the
problems to this and other septic systems or what material is
causing the problem.
I ask that whatever material is causing the problem be
determined to be hazardous to the environment and it' s use
should be banned in on site septic systems.
If you have any questions, please call or write me.

Re: Alternative On-site Sewage Treatment
Monitoring and Reporting Requirement
DEP Facility ID: RUCK12
2 a L�f Lane;�Bamstable,MA
Dear Mr. McGrath:
The Department has received a letter from Innovative RUCK Systems,Inc., dated April 18,
2000,requesting reduction or elimination of monitoring and reporting of pH,BOD and TSS on a
quarterly basis on the effluent from the alternative on-site sewage disposal system at the above
referenced facility. The Department's Certification for General Use for.the technology, in section
IV(6)(i), states that"After one year of monitoring and at the written request of the owner,the
Department may reduce the monitoring requirements."
The Department,having reviewed the monitoring data for this technology, in geuerai, and
your system, approves the request to-reduce effluent monitoring of the system, from four times to
+one time per year. The change in monitoring requirements in no way changes the requirement that,
throughout its use,the system shall be under an operation and maintenance agreement with a person
or firm qualified to provide services consistent with the system's specifications. As a condition of
allowing you to reduce effluent monitoring,however,by January 31 of each year, you must submit
to the Department an annual report for the calendar year that includes: 1) a description of the
operation of the system; 2) system.inspection.and emergency service information; 3) any other
pertinent information that describes the condition of the system; and 4)results of the annual effluent
monitoring. The report shall be prepared by the operator contracted to inspect and maintain the-
system. Additionally, as required by the Approval for the system, any time the operator changes,
you shall notify the Department and the local approving authority, in writing,within seven days of
such change. -
This information is available in alternate format by calling our ADA Coordinator at(617)574-6872.

Falling Leaf Lane, Osterville, Shown on Subdivision Plan dated February 11, 1984, revise
April 23 1984 and identified as Parcels`3.001 Through 3.014 on Assessor's Map 144, and
Parcels 3.016 Through 3.026 on Assessor's Map 144.
PROCEDURAL HISTORY
On November 18, 1996, the Board of Health agent, Thomas McKean, R.S., C.H.O.,
received twenty-four (24) disposal system permit applications along with two checks totaling
$2,400.00 from Peter Sullivan, P.E., of Baxter and Nye Incorporated, who was representing
O.R.
E. Associates Incorporated and Osterville Highlands Trust pertaining to proposed
construction along Falling Leaf Lane, Osterville. The lots are located off of Acorn Drive,
Osterville Massachusetts, and are identified as parcels 3.001 through parcels 3.014 on AssesSOP,
Map 144, and parcels 3.016 through 3.025 on Assessor's Map 144. The disposal system
nstrE�ction a plications indicated that parcels 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, and 24 (all .
co p
the even numbered lots) were owned by Osterville Highlands Trust. The remaining application
ESE
indicated that parcels 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 17, 19, 21, 23, and 25 (all the odd numbered lots) were
owned by O.R.E. Associates. - -
On or about November 21', 1996, Mr. McKean disapproved all twenty-four disposal
constn fiction permit applications due to the fact that the plans lacked maximum feasible
compliance with the State Environmental Code, Title 5. He also returned the checks totaling
$2,400.00 to Peter Sullivan, P.E., of Baxter and Nye, Incorporated, and invited him to attend a
Board of Health hearing scheduled on Tuesday December 17, 1996 in order to provide Mr.
Sullivan the opportunity show why he, and the owners of the parcels, believed it would be
feasible to construct septic systems on these 24 lots which would meet the provisions of Title 5,
the St�ite Environmental Code.
i
During the first hearing which was held on December 17, 1996, the applicant requested a
continuance. Then the Board members voted to continue this matter to the February 4, 1997
public meeting. On February 4, 1997, the applicant again requested a continuance; then the
Board members voted to continue this matter to the March 4, 1997 public meeting. Continuation
hearinrts were also held on the.following dates during 1997: June 17th, July 1 st, and August
19th. Many documents were submitted into the record by both the applicant(s) and the Board of
Health. The Board members rendered a decision on September 3, 1997 during a special public
hearing. ;
FINDINGS OF THE BOARD OF HEALTH ,
;after discussion and based upon the evidence submitted, the Board of Health made the
following findings:
l All 25 lots in the subdivision fall within a DEP approved Zone 11 of a public water supply:
the Centerville-Osterville-Marstons Mills Water district wells CO# 10, CO AR#3,4, and CO MC#2
The Zone 11 for these wells was approved by DEP May 3, 1994. Further, these wells are showing
nitrate levels in the range of 1-3 mg/L; these levels clearly exceed background nitrates levels
(generally <0.5 mg/L) and are indicative that nitrogen from human sources is reaching these
wells. Septic systems are known to be the largest source of nitrogen to groundwater on Cape
Cod. _
2. All lots in the subdivision are within a DEP-defined nitrogen sensitive area as defined in
310 CMR 15.215(1).
3. Further, the majority of lots in the subdivision (lots 1-10 and 16-25) fall within the town of
Barnstable defined WP zone, the five year time of travel contribution zone to a public water
supply.
4. Septic system effluent is a known source of nitrate and other possible contaminants to th
public water supply.
5, increasing density of housing is associated with increased levels of nitrate and other
contaminants in groundwater.
G. In recognition of 4 and 5 above, DEP has determined per 310 CMR 15.214(I), that no
system serving new construction in a nitrogen sensitive area designated in 310 CMR 15.215 sr
L_
00,
-
be'designed to receive or shall receive more than 440 gallons of design flow per day per acre
except as set forth at 310 CMR 15.216 (aggregate flows) or 15.217 (enhanced nitrogen removal).
7. All lots in the subdivision are less than an acre in size. Further, all lots, except lots 23 and
21, are less than one-half acre (20,000 sf). Under the nitrogen loading requirements of 310 CMR
15.214, the half-acre lots would be entitled to a 220 design flow, the lots less than one-half acre
would be entitled to a 110 gpd design flow.
8. Under the Title 5 transition rules, 310 CMR 15.005, the owner of a lot on which`
construction of a septic system in full compliance with 310 CMR 15.000 is not feasible is entitled
to construct a system with a cumulative design flow of up to 330 gpd provided that the system is
constructed in compliance with 310 CMR 15,000 to the maximum extent feasible as determined
by the local approving authority pursuant to 310 CMR 15.404 and'15.405.
9. 310 CMR 15.404 (maximum feasible compliance) states that a non-conforming system
may b a brought into compliance through the installation of an alternative system (i.e. a nitrogen
removal system with associated design flow credit may be used to bring a system into compliance
with tr-e requirements of 310 CMR 15.214).
10. The Board is in receipt of a letter from DEP to William Nye (one of the applicants)dated
February 4, 1997 stating that "the department interprets compliance with the requirements of 310
CMR 15.005 (3)(a) through (c) to require, pursuant to 310 CMR 15.005(c), a considered
asses!,,ment by the proponent of approved nitrogen removal technologies when site limitations
prevent attainment of the 440 gallon per acre design flow standard set for new construction under
V
310 CMR 15.215(1)...0
{

a
11. The applicant is entitled to pursue an aggregate determination of nitrogen loading per 310
CMR 15.216 and DEP guidelines. It is this board's belief that the cumulative acreage in the
subdiv;sion, minus the acreage devoted to roads, when considered in the aggregate is sufficient
to allow the construction of 2-bedroom homes (220 gpd design flow) on twenty of the lots and this
will be in general compliance with the nitrogen loading requirements of 310 CMR 15.214.
12. The applicant has acknowledged that lot 15 will be used for drainage and is not to be
considered buildable. -
13. At the hearings held on August 19, 1997 and September 3, 1997, the applicants proposed
to the Board that dwellings located on 20 of the lots, which specific lots they identified, would be
limited to 2 bedrooms unless the system(s) are modified to include enhanced nutrient removal as
approved by the Board of Health in which case a dwelling served by a modified system may be
permitted to have not more than .1 bedrooms. The remaining four lots would be limited to not
more than 3-bedrooms and said system(s) must be modified to include enhanced nutrient removal
as approved by the Board of Health.
14. Based upon the evidence presented, the Board finds that the applicants can achieve
maximum feasible compliance with 310 CMR 15.000 through either 1) the construction of 2-
bedroom homes on twenty of the lots with the remaining four lots provided with nitrogen removal-
technology; the twenty lots must have appropriate restrictions placed upon their deeds to indicate
that only 2 bedrooms are allowed, or 2) the installation of nitrogen removal technology on any lot
will entitle the owner to a design flow of 330 gpd.
5
e applicant may choose in the future to present to this board an
aggregate nitrogen loading which complies with 310 CMR 15.216; this plan, if
approved by the board, will negate the restrictions in 14 above.
ACTION TAKEN BY BOARD OF HEALTH
Based upon the Board's unanimous approval of the proposed
findings, the Board of Health voted to take the following action regarding the
pending twenty-four applications for disposal system construction permits
submitted by the applicants, Osterville Highland Trust, John Alger, Trustee
and ORE Associates, Inc.:
A) Disposal System Construction Permits shall issue to ORE Associates, Inc. for lots

conditions:
1. All dwellings shall be limited to 2 bedrooms unless the system(s) is modified to
include enhanced nutrient removal as approved by the Board of Health in which case a dwelling
served by a modified system may be permitted to have not more than 3- bedrooms.
2. Each plan shall be modified by the applicants to include a notation containing the fut•-
text of !,he language recited in paragraph (A)(1) above.
3. Deed restrictions, approved as to form by the Town Attorney, limiting the use of the
dwellin.1a to two bedrooms on each of the above-referenced lots shall be recorded at the

to compliance with the following conditions:
1. All dwellings shall be limited to not more than 2.bedrooms and said system(s) must be
modified to include enhanced nutrient removal as approved by the Board of Health.
2. Each plan shall be modified by the applicants to include a notation containing the full
text of the language recited in paragraph (13)(1) above.
(C) No permit shall issue for lot 15 which has been designated, pursuant to the initial
subdivision approval by the Planning Board, as a lot reserved for drainage.
(D) The issuance of the permits, as restricted, shall not prejudice or otherwise limit the right of
both applicants, jointly or severally, to fle with the Board of Health and the DEP a plan pursuant
to the provisions of 310 CMR 15.216(2), nor shall the mere filing of such a plan obligate the Boarc

Decision of the Board of Health Regarding Lots 1 Through 14 and Lots 16 Through 25
Falling Leaf Lane, Osterville, Shown on Subdivision Plan dated February 11, 1984, revised
April 23, 1984 and Identified as Parcels 3.001 Through 3.014 on Assessor's Map 144, and
Parcels 1016 Through 3.025 on Assessor's Map 144.
PROCEDURAL HISTORY
On November 18, 1996, the-board of Health agent,'Thomas McKean, R.S., C.H.O.,.
received twenty-four (24) disposal systd(n,permit applicationsalong with two checks totaling
$2,400.00 from Peter Sullivan, P.E., of Baxter and, Nye Incorporated, who was representing
O.R.E. Associates Incorporated and'Osterville Highlands,Trust pertaining to proposed
construction along Falling Leaf Lane, Osterville. The lots are located off of Acorn Drive,
Osterville Massachusetts, and are identified as parcels 3.001 through parcels 3.014 on Assessors
Map 144, and parcels 3.016 through 3.025 on Assessor's Map 144. The disposal system
construction applications indicated that parcels 2, 4;6, 8, ,10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, and 24 (all
the even numbered lots) were ownedby Osterville Highlands Trust. The remaining applications
w ,
indicated that parcels 1, 3, 5, 7,,9, 11, 13, 17, 19, 21, 23, and 25 (all the odd numbered lots) were
owned by O.R.E. Associates.
On or about November-21, 1996, Mr. McKean disapprovedal[twenty=four disposal
construction permit applications due to the fact that the plans lacked maximum feasible
compliance with the State Environmental Code,_Title 5. He also returned the checks totaling
$2,400.00 to Peter Sullivan, P.E., of Baxter and Nye, Incorporated, and invited him to attend a
Board of Health hearing scheduled on Tuesday December-17,, 1996 in order to provide Mr.
Sullivan the opportunity show why he, and the owners of the parcels, believed it would be
feasible to construct septic systems on these 24 lots which would meet the provisions of Title 5,
the State Environmental Code.
y` During the first hearing which was held on December 17,T 1996, the applicant requested a
continuance. Then the Board members voted to continue this matter to the February 4, 1997
public meeting. On February 4, 1997, the applicant again requested a,continuance; tKen.the.
Board members voted to continue this matter to the March 4, 1997 public meeting. Continuation
hearings were also held on the following dates during,1997.: June 17th, July.1st, and August
19th. Many documents were submitted into the record by both the applicant(s) and the Board of
Health. The Board members rendered a decision.on.September 3, 1997 during a special public
paring.

FINDINGS OF THE BOARD OF HEALTH
After discussion and based upon the evidence submitted, the Board of Health made the
following findings:
I. All 25 lots in the subdivision fall within a DER approved Zone II of a public water supply:
the Centerville-Osterville-Marstons Mills Water district wells CO# 10, CO AR#3,4, and CO MC#2.
The Zone II for these wells was approved by DEP May 3, 1994. Further, these wells are showing
nitrate levels in the range of 1-3 mg/L; these levels clearly exceed background nitrate levels
(generally <0.5 mg/L) and are indicative that nitrogen from human sources is reaching these
wells. Septic systems are known to be the largest source of nitrogen to groundwater on Cape
Cod.
2. All lots in the subdivision.are within a DEP-defined nitrogen sensitive area as defined in
310 CMR 15.215(1).
3. Further, the majority of lots in the subdivision (lots 1-10 and 16-25) fall within the town of
y. F
Barnstable defined WP zone, the five year.time of travel contribution zone to a public water
supply.
4. Septic system effluent is a known source of nitrate and other possible contaminants to the
public water supply.
5. Increasing density of housing is associated with increased levels of nitrate and other
contaminants in,groundwater. '
6. In recognition of 4 and 5 above, DEP has determined per 310 CMR 15.214(I), that no
system serving new construction in a nitrogen sensitive area designated in 310 CMR 15.215 shall
. 3
f
be designed to receive or shall receive more than 440 gallons of design flow per day per acre
except as set forth at 310 CMR 15.216 (aggregate flows) or 15.217 (enhanced nitrogen removal).
7. All lots in the subdivision are less than an acre in size.' Further, all lots, except lots 23 and
21, are less than one-half acre (20,000 sf). Under the nitrogen loading requirements of 310 CMR
F
15.214, the half-acre lots would be.entitled to a 220 design flow, the lots less than one-half acre
would be entitled to a 110 gpd design flow.
8. Under the Title 5 transition rules,-310 CMR 15.005, the owner of a lot on which
construction of a septic system in full compliance with 31-0 CMR 15.000 is not feasible.is entitled
to construct a system with.a cumulative design flow of up to 330 gpd provided that the system is
constructed in compliance.with 310 CMR'15.000 to the maximum extent feasible as determined
by the local approving authority pursuant to 310 CMR 15.404 and 15.405.
9. 310 CMR 15.404 (maximum feasible compliance) states that anon-conforming system
may be brought into compliance through the installation of an alternative system (i.e: a nitrogen
removal system with associated design flow credit may be used to bring a system into compliance
with the requirements of 310 CMR 15.214). = E
10. The Board is in receipt of a letter from DEP to William Nye (one of the applicants)dated
February 4, 1997 stating that "the department interprets compliance with.the requirements of 310
CMR 15.005 (3)(a) through (c) to require, pursuant to 310.CMR 15.005(c), a considered
assessment by the proponent of approved_ nitrogen removal technologies when site limitations
prevent attainment of the'440 gallon per-acre design flow standard set for, new construction under
•310 CMR 15.215(1)..
4
15. The applicant may choose in the future to present to this board an
aggregate nitrogen loading which complies with 310 CMR 15.216; this plan, if
approved by the board, will negate the restrictions in 14 above. '
ACTION TAKEN BY BOARD OF HEALTH
Based upon the Board's'unanimous approval of'the proposed
findings, the Board of Health voted to,take the following action regarding the
pending twenty-four applications for.disposal system construction permits
submitted by the applicants, Osterville Highland Trust, John Alger,-Trustee
and ORE Associates, Inc.: ;
A) Disposal System Construction Permits shall issue to ORE Associates, Inc. for lots 3,
5, 7, 91 11,.13, 17, 19, 21, 25 and to Osterville Highland-Trust, John Alger, Trustee for lots 2, 4, 6,
8, 10, 14, 16, 18, 20, 24, as designed, said issuance subject to compliance with the following`
conditions:
,l 1. All dwellings shalll be limited,to 2 bedrooms unless the systems) is modified to
include enhanced nutrient removal as approvedby the Board of Health in which case a dwelling

of Health prior to the issuance of a,Disposal System Construction Permit.
(B) Disposal System Construction Permits shall issue to ORE Associates, Inc. for lots I and
23 and to Osterville Highland Trust, John Alger, Trustee for lots 12 and 22, as designed,,subject
to compliance with the following conditions:
1. All dwellings shall be limited to not more than 3 bedrooms and said system(s) must be
modified to include enhanced nutrient removal as approved by the Board of Health.
2. Each plan shall be modified by the applicants to include a notation containing thefull
text of the language recited in paragraph (13)(1) above.-
(C) No permit shall issue for°lot 15 which has been'designated, pursuant to the initial
subdivision approval by the Planning Board, as a lot reserved for drainage.
(D) The issuance of the permits, as restricted, shall not prejudice or otherwise limit the right of
