This property is <br /> surrounded by Bordering Vegetated Wetlands on three sides and involves construction of the <br /> porch along the front of the house and taking a portion of the existing driveway and replacing <br /> it with a 24x24 square foot addition, removing a small area of impervious surface. Ms. <br /> Trudeau noted that the proposed front-facing garage will allow for a narrower driveway. <br /> Concerns of the Commission: <br /> -Is there a DEP file number? <br /> -There is no mention of Feno markers. <br /> -Demarcating the edge of the wetland would be acceptable. <br /> Responses of the Applicant: <br /> - Will restore a vegetated buffer between the house and the closest flag. <br /> -Most suitable location for infiltration is in the front yard of the house. Not able to <br /> take roof runoff from addition. <br /> -Gravity fed and works better. Forced to evaluate only the front yard for <br /> infiltration. <br /> -Can put in Feno markers; 25 foot buffer runs through the house. <br />
