The MacDonald’s desire to modify their home, which will increase the bedroom count from 3 to 4. The lot size is approximately 1.4 Acres, so the lot has adequate acreage to accommodate the bedroom increase. The existing septic system was upgraded in 2000, which consisted of a new leach field utilizing Quick4 Infiltrators. It does not appear that any soil evaluation was performed in 2000 for this upgrade. The increase in bedroom count will obviously require an increase of the size of the leaching area. Longfellow Design respectfully requests a variance to allow the soil evaluation to occur at the time of leach field expansion. The existing leach field is located beneath the existing driveway. Granting this variance will avoid having to excavate the driveway multiple times. Feel free to contact me with any questions. Thanks, Scott P. Miccile Scott P. Miccile, P.E.

October 13, 2023 Mr. Thomas McKean, Director Town of Barnstable Board of Health 200 Main Street Hyannis, MA 02601 RE: 55 Poponessett Road, Cotuit, MA – MAP – 35 Parcel 2 Dear Mr. McKean and Board of Health Members: On behalf of our clients, Jeff Dinardo and Maria Apse, a request for a variance is being sought for the above referenced property. Based on a drawing by our firm, dated October 6, 2023, one (1) variance is being requested for the septic upgrade at 55 Poponessett Road in Cotuit. The land area required within the Saltwater Estuary for a 4-bedroom system is 40,000 s.f., however the existing parcel only contains 35,313 s.f. The applicant has included a NitriFAST 0.5 I/A system (Innovative & Alternative system) used for denitrification in the proposed septic upgrade plan. The proposed septic system provides denitrification, with an increase in the design flow over the existing conditions and is properly sited according to the regulations. Under the Town of Barnstable regulations for the Saltwater Estuary the lot would normally be limited to three bedrooms and would not have the requirement of an I/A nitrogen reducing system. By including an the I/A system the locus project and Saltwater Estuary would benefit more from an I/A system serving a 4-bedroom system than a normal Title 5 system serving a 3-bedroom system. Nitrogen calculations have been provided that show that the Proposed Development with a standard 3-bedroom title 5 system will continue to impact the site with a higher nitrogen concentration than the Proposed Development with a 4 bedroom I/A nitrogen reducing system. Nitrogen calculations are attached for each condition. The environmental benefit of granting the variance outweighs the installation of a standard system without the variance. The new Title 5 sewage disposal system Bio-Microbics NitriFast 0.5: to be Installed in accordance With Mass Dep General Use Approval, Transmittal Number X232831, (see attached) I/A denitrification system. The following Variance is as follows: NO DESCRIPTION BYLAW REQUIRED STATE REQUIRED PROPOSED REQUESTED 1.Three (3) bedroom to Four bedroom (4)3 Bedrooms 4 Bedrooms 4 1 If you have any questions, please feel free to call.

The SAS shall be designed and constructed in accordance with310 CMR 15.100 -15.279 and subject to the provisions of this Certification. 2.Technology Description -The FAST® system is an aerobic wastewater treatment systemthat utilizes a completely submerged fixed film process to treat organics and nitrify, and apassive recycle system for denitrification. Each model contains submerged media specificto the application. Microorganisms grow on the media and remove soluble contaminantsfrom the wastewater, utilizing them as a source of energy for growth and production of newmicroorganisms. The FAST® system insert consists of a liner around the media and anairlift to provide aeration and mixing within the confines of the liner. The area outside theliner in the septic tank remains anoxic for denitrification and a passive recirculation system Certification for General Use Page3 oflO Bio-Microbics FAST <2,000 GPD Nitrogen Reducing moves the aerated wastewater to the outside of the liner to obtain denitrification. The aeration and circulation inside the liner are provided by a blower that pumps air into a draft tube that extends down the center of the media. Treated effluent passes out of the aerobic zone of the treatment plant through a pipe connected directly to a baffled quiescent area in the liner. Final effluent is discharged to a soil absorption system. Specific model considerations are as follows: •The MicroFAST® 0.5, 0.75 and 0.9, HighStrengthFAST® 1.0 and NitriFAST® 0.5, 0. 75 and 0.9 are installed in the second compartment of a two-compartment tank with a total liquid capacity of at least 1,500 gallons constructed in accordance with 310 CMR 15226. •The MicroFAST®, HighStrengthF AST® and NitriF AST® 1.5 are installed in the second compartment of a two compartment 3000-gallon tank constructed in accordance with 310 CMR 15.226. •The MicroFAST®, HighStrengthFAST® and NitriFAST® 3.0 is installed in a separate tank constructed in accordance with 310 CMR 15.226 and located between a standard Title 5 septic tank, designed in accordance with 310 CMR 15.223 and 15.224, and the soil adsorption system (SAS). In this larger system, an additional recycle pump may be needed to send nitrified effluent back to the septic tank for added denitrification. Consult the Company for proper layout. •The NitriFAST® models can also be used for additional nitrification in series after the MicroFAST® models or HighStrengthF AST® models. In this configuration the tanks used for the NitriF AST® shall be constructed in accordance with 310 CMR 15.226 and meet the minimum dimensions and volumes required by the Company. •Flow equalization may also be employed prior to the FAST® system depending on the type of facility. Consult Company for proper layout 3.All access ports and manhole covers shall be readily removable, of durable material and installed and maintained at grade to allow for maintenance of the System. No structures shall be located directly upon or above the access locations which could interfere with performance, access, inspection, pumping, or repair. Sufficient access for infrequent maintenance of the System treatment media and all other treatment works shall be evaluated, and addressed in the System design if necessary, by the designer. System control panel(s) including alarms shall be mounted in a location accessible to the operator of the System. 4.Wastewater Loading and Effluent Concentration Design Standards For new residential construction in an area subject to the Nitrogen Load_lng Limitations of 310 CMR 15214, and the facility does not meet with the Nitrogen Loading Limitations pursuant to the aggregation provisions of310 CMR 15.216, an increase in calculatednitrogen loading per acre is allowed for facilities with design flow less than 2000 gpd with limitations as follows: •The design flow shall not exceed 660 gallons per day per acre (gpda) and the total nitrogen (TN) concentration in the effluent shall not exceed 19 milligrams per liter (mg/I..); or Certification for General Use Page4 oflO Bio-Microbics FAST <2,000 GPD Nitrogen Reducing •The design flow shall not exceed 550 gallons per day per acre (gpda) and the total nitrogen (TN) concentration in the effluent shall not exceed 25 milligrams per liter (mg/L). •TN is measured as the total of TKN (Total Kjeldhal Nitrogen), NO3-N (Nitrate nitrogen) and NO2-N (Nitrite nitrogen).

October 13, 2023 Board of Health Variance Request Abutter Notification Letter Dear Abutter: A public hearing has been scheduled for the Barnstable Board of Health to act on a request for variance from Title V Regulations under CMR15.000 and Town of Barnstable Regulations for the septic upgrade located at Assessor’s Map 035, Parcel 002, 55 Poponessett Road in Cotuit, MA. This Variance Request is being filed on behalf of our clients, Jeffrey Dinardo and Maria Apse. One (1) variance is being requested for the septic upgrade at 55 Poponessett Road in Cotuit. The land area required within the Saltwater Estuary for a 4-bedroom system is 40,000 s.f., however the existing parcel only contains 35,313 s.f. The applicant has included a NitriFAST 0.5 I/A system (Innovative & Alternative system) used for denitrification in the proposed septic upgrade plan. The proposed septic system provides denitrification, with an increase in the design flow over the existing conditions and is properly sited according to the regulations. Under the Town of Barnstable regulations for the Saltwater Estuary the lot would normally be limited to three bedrooms and would not have the requirement of an I/A nitrogen reducing system. By including an the I/A system the locus project and Saltwater Estuary would benefit more from an I/A system serving a 4-bedroom system than a normal Title 5 system serving a 3-bedroom system. Nitrogen calculations have been provided that show that the Proposed Development with a standard 3-bedroom title 5 system will continue to impact the site with a higher nitrogen concentration than the Proposed Development with a 4 bedroom I/A nitrogen reducing system. Nitrogen calculations are attached for each condition. The environmental benefit of granting the variance outweighs the installation of a standard system without the variance. The new Title 5 sewage disposal system Bio-Microbics NitriFast 0.5: to be Installed in accordance With Mass Dep General Use Approval, Transmittal Number X232831, I/A denitrification system. Variance requested under Town of Barnstable Board of Health Regulations: Article XV: Section 360-45: Protection of Saltwater Estuaries: NO DESCRIPTION BYLAW REQUIRED STATE REQUIRED PROPOSED REQUESTED 1. 3 bedrooms to 4 bedrooms 3 Bedrooms 4 Bedrooms 4 1 Said hearing will be held in the James H. Crocker Hearing Room, Barnstable Town Hall, 367 Main St, 2nd Floor, Hyannis, MA on November 28, 2023, at 3:00 pm. Plans and the application describing the proposed activity are on file at the Board of Health office, 200 Main Street, Hyannis, MA. It is recommended to check with the Health Department to confirm the date and time if you are interested in attending. Any questions, we may be reached at 508-477-7272. Sincerely yours, Jean E.

TTY# MassRelay Service 1-800-439-2370 MassDEP Website: www.mass.gov/dep Printed on Recycled Paper Standard Conditions for Secondary Treatment Units Certified for General Use Last Revised: March 20, 2015 A Secondary Treatment Unit (STU) is an alternative technology designed to reduce the amount of organic material and solids in sanitary wastewater. An STU may be used as a component of an on-site sewage disposal system to enhance treatment prior to discharge to the soil absorption system (SAS). For residential systems with design flows less than 2,000 gpd, certain STU’s may be used as a component of an on-site sewage disposal to reduce the effective leaching area required for the SAS where soil or site conditions may make conventional soil absorption systems more costly or less desirable to construct. For residential systems with design flows less than 2,000 gpd, an STU which allows for a reduced leach field may require less land area, potentially less fill, and less disturbance of the site. The System consists of an STU preceding a soil absorption system and, when the leaching area is reduced or the design flow is 2,000 gpd or greater, the SAS must be pressure dosed. A conventional septic tank precedes the STU unless exempt by the Special Conditions for a specific Technology.

May 22, 2014, Renewal November 20, 2017, Mod. Jan 26, 2023. Technology: SeptiTech – Nitrogen Reducing Page 2 of 17 I. Purpose Subject to the conditions of this Approval and any other local requirements, the purpose of this Approval is to allow installation and operation of at least 50 on-site sewage disposal systems utilizing the Technology in Massachusetts in order to conduct a performance evaluation of the capabilities of the Technology during the first 3 years of operation of each system, in accordance with Title 5 – 310 CMR 15.286 (7), Provisional Approval of Alternative System. The specific goal of the Performance Evaluation is to determine if the Technology is capable of consistently meeting the concentration limits for total nitrogen (TN) of 19 or 25 milligrams per liter (mg/L) for installations with design flows less than 2,000 GPD and 25 mg/L for installations with design flows 2,000 GPD or greater but less than 10,000 gpd, in the effluent discharged to the soil absorption system. In areas subject to nitrogen loading limitations, increases in the discharge rate per acre may be allowed when the nitrogen concentration discharged to the soil is reduced. The Company is responsible for oversight and sampling of the systems during the Performance Evaluation. The Owner has responsibility for continued oversight and sampling of the system if the property served was allowed to increase the discharge rate per acre above 440 gallons per day per acre (gpda) in an area subject to Nitrogen Loading Limitations or if the property served has a design flow of 2000 gpd or more located in a Nitrogen Sensitive Area. The System Owner will be required to repair, replace, modify or take any other action as required by the Department or the local approving authority, if the Department or the local approving authority determines that the System is not capable of meeting the required reduction in nitrogen in the effluent. With the other applicable permits or approvals that may be required by Title 5, this Approval authorizes the installation and use of the Alternative System in Massachusetts. All the provisions of Title 5, including the General Conditions for all Alternative Systems (310 CMR 15.287), apply to the sale, design, installation, and use of the System, except those provisions that specifically have been varied by the Approval. II. General Description of the Technology The SeptiTech unit (the ‘System’) is installed in series between the building sewer and the soil absorption system (SAS) of a standard Title 5 system in a manner which neither intrudes on, replaces a component of, or adversely affects the operation of a Title 5 system constructed in accordance with 310 CMR 15.000, subject to the provisions of this Approval. Two or more units may be installed in parallel to accommodate larger design flows. The System is an aerobic treatment system that uses an enhanced recirculating biological trickling filter treatment process with anoxic phase to reduce biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5), total suspended solids (TSS) and total nitrogen from sanitary wastewater by biological degradation. The wastewater flows into the first of two tanks consisting of a two-compartment primary- anoxic tank where primary settling, and partial denitrification occur. The second processor tank contains the trickling filter media and pumps for recirculation within the trickling filter, recirculation back to the anoxic tank and for discharge to the distribution box of the SAS or to a pressure distribution system. In addition to BOD reduction, further nitrification occurs in the mixed liquor as it passes through the trickling filter with the ammonium in the wastewater converting to nitrate. The System uses a hydrophobic media composed of either polystyrene beads or polystyrene beads with honeycomb shaped solid media, in a two-stage process that allows biological growth within the media pore spaces. Modified Provisional Approval – Rev. May 22, 2014, Renewal November 20, 2017, Mod. Jan 26, 2023. Technology: SeptiTech – Nitrogen Reducing Page 3 of 17 SeptiTech Models STAAR .5 (M400N) through STAAR 1.0 (M750N) come prefabricated in HDPE or concrete tanks and have hydrophobic bead media in mesh bags. SeptiTech Models STAAR 1.2 (M1200N) through STAAR 4.5 (M3000N) are configured similarly to STAAR .5 (M400N) series tanks; however, these units include a larger processor tank and use a combination of the larger commercial solid media and hydrophobic bead media in mesh bags. A programmable logic controller (PLC) controls the treatment process. The PLC monitors incoming flows and adjusts the treatment process (recirculation, recycling, sludge return,99 and discharge cycles). The SeptiTech Engineered system, as referred to in this approval, are just multiples of the commercial STAAR 4.5 (M3000N) for large flows larger than a regular STAAR 4.5. Other systems (s) are added in line to handle flow treatment. So, the O&M for the STAAR 4.5 would cover a system with multiple STAAR 4.5 systems (Engineered System), as it is the same system with one additional tank. • Wastewater from the primary anoxic tank enters the treatment tank and collects in a reservoir at the base of the tank where it mixes with treated wastewater, • A recirculation pump controlled by the PLC pumps the wastewater to the treatment area at the top of the tank where air is drawn into the wastewater, • The aerated wastewater is sprayed over the hydrophobic media which is suspended above the reservoir, wastewater trickles through the media and returns to the reservoir, • Wastewater is circulated over the media 70 or more times per day, • Effluent is returned on a scheduled basis to the anoxic tank for denitrification • Solids in the reservoir are periodically returned to the anoxic tank The control panel including alarms are mounted in a location accessible to the operator (or Service Contractor) of the System. For Systems with a design flow of 2000 gpd or greater an influent sampling location that is not impacted by recycled wastewater shall be a part of the design. The use of the Technology under this Approval requires: • Disclosure Notice in the Deed to the property; • Certifications by the Company, the Designer, and the Installer; • System Owner Acknowledgement of Responsibilities; • A certified operator under contract for periodic inspection and maintenance; • Periodic sampling; • Recordkeeping and reporting; and • An external power supply III.

Board of Health November 1st 2023 To whom it may concern: Madi Schluter has been is a serious tattoo artist. Her ambition to learn and master the elements and the practice of tattooing is nothing less than extraordinary. The way that she works with clients to make them feel at ease during the tattoo process is a rare quality and is another one of her excellent attributes. Her enthusiasm and behavior as a student has been exemplary. Regarding her ability to tattoo; Madi can execute complicated designs with clarity and precision. Her practice is sterile, clean and meticulous. Madi is particular in her set up and cleaning practices. She has never had any complaints about her tattoos or cleanliness. Madi has also shown an momentous amount of growth in the time that I have known her; in her expression and her confidence. I think this growth is a reflection of how Madi will continue to grow and develop her unique tattoo artist voice while providing safe and beautiful tattoos. I highly recommend Madi Schluter to receive her Tattooing License as she has worked hard, put in the time and the research, and ultimately has become one of my favorite tattoo artists. If there any more questions and or information needed from me please don’t hesitate to reach out at: Miceala Thatcher 508 771 6624 micelalam@gmail.com BOH NOV 28, 2023 Request: To schedule a date for a public hearing to review and discuss a proposed revisions to Sections 385 6 and 385-4, and 376-19.

Page 1 of 3 BOH 07/25/2023 AGENDA – BOARD OF HEALTH MEETING Original Tuesday, July 25, 2023 3:00 PM James H. Crocker Jr. Hearing Room, Town Hall 367 Main Street, 2nd Floor, Hyannis, MA A regularly scheduled and duly posted meeting of the Barnstable Board of Health was held on Tuesday, July 25, 2023.

Dan Ojala was present and stated his revised plan dated July 25, 2023 includes a liner the health inspector requested. Upon a motion duly made by Dr. Guadagnoli, seconded by Mr. Lee, the Board voted to grant the variance(s) according to the revised plan showing the liner was given to Mr. McKean. (Unanimously, voted in favor.) II. Innovative/Alternative (I/A) – Secondary Treatment Unit (S.T.U): A. Dan Ojala, Down Cape Engineering, representing Susan McAllister, owner – 10 Island Avenue, Hyannis, Map/Parcel 265-004, 70,087 square feet parcel, repair of failed septic system, proposing to install a MicroFAST 0-.9 Innovative Alternative (I/A) Septic System and requesting multiple variances. Dan Ojala explained that on the original permit it incorrectly showed as a 4 bedroom while assessors stated 8 bedrooms. This was clearly an 8 bedroom in the original footprint and this was before plans were required to be filed. Thus, the submitted plans are designed for the eight bedrooms. With two sensitive embankments and the possibility of sewer not looking promising to this location, they opted to use a MicroFast to protect the water. Mr. Ojala added the vent requested by the Health Inspector to the MicroFast. He reviewed the size of the tanks with MA DEP and J&R Sales representing MicroFast. They acknowledged the tank size was the correct size and could handle 100 gallons more. Upon a motion duly made by Dr. Guadagnoli, seconded by Mr. Lee, the Board voted to grant the variances with the use of the MicroFast Septic System. The revised plans are dated 7/25/23 showing the venting. (Unanimously, voted in favor.) Town of Barnstable Board of Health 200 Main Street, Hyannis MA 02601 John T. Norman, Chair F.P.

Brian Yergatian, BSC Group, representing Hyannisport Club – 2 Irving Avenue, Hyannis, Map/Parcel 266-031, 156 acre parcel, proposed expansion of Racquets Facility, requesting to not install an Innovative Alternative (I/A) Septic system. No one was present. This was moved to the next meeting- August 2023. III. Septic Repair – Deadline: Paul Baron, Baron Property Management, representing Strawberry Hill Condominiums – 1431 Iyannough Road, Hyannis, Map/Parcel 274-021, requesting extension on deadline until sewer connection. Paul Baron said currently there is one of the four septic systems in failure with a failed leaching pit. The system covers the units 15-22 (Map/Parcels 274-021-00O to 274-021- 00V). The Health Division sent a letter requesting the repair be done within a year. They are in the early portion of Phase 1 of the sewer project and are monitoring the leaching field every month and Bortolotti will be pumping it as needed. They are asking for an extension until connected to sewer. Mr. McKean said the staff has no issue with extension. Upon a motion duly made by Dr. Guadagnoli, seconded by Mr. Lee, the Board voted to grant an extension of two years until 7/31/25 with the following conditions: 1) it continue being monitored once a month, 2) the system be pumped as needed to prevent backing up or overflowing, and 3) the system be connected to Town sewer immediately - within six months.

British Beer Company, 412 Main Street, Hyannis, Map/Parcel 309-221, requesting grease trap variance, for 2,000 gallon grease trap, menu items have low level of grease, asking for same seating as prior owner - 197 seats. Attorney John Kenney was representing the owner at this meeting and explained the owner was unaware at purchase of property that there was a variance on the food permit. He suggested creating a policy to have variances for food also recorded at the Registry of Deeds so attorneys can find them at time of sale. He expressed concern that the drop in seats recommended by Department of Public Works would be a reduction of 39% with huge consequences for income. He stated they do have a grease recovery device (GRD) and a contractor who pumps the grease trap and takes the grease from the GRD every three months. Mr. Kenney asked for a two year extension (through the summer season) with current seating to earn income to cover the cost of an enlarged grease trap. Upon a motion duly made by Dr. Guadagnoli, seconded by Mr. Lee, the Board voted to grant a temporary extension for 27 months to allow 197 seats used until October 31, 2025. The grease trap shall be pumped whenever the level of grease is 25 percent of the effective depth of the trap or at least every three months, whichever is sooner.

Mr. Weekes stated the raw bar is outdoors. Mr. McKean stated the Black Cat Café was granted a similar variance as a pilot program and he would not an issue for this locate to be granted the same provided they operate in a similar fashion. Mr. Norman said, as the oysters are shucked to order, and not large amounts are opened ahead of time, there shouldn’t be an issue with flies, etc. Upon a motion duly made by Dr. Canniff, seconded by Mr. Lee, the Board voted to grant the variance with the following conditions: 1) a high-powered fan be used as an air curtain just in the area where they are shucking oysters, 2) they seal the piece of wood where the shucking is done.
