Subject: 	Old Barn Estates - fill slope re-vegetation
Attachments:	Fill Slope Sketch 020113.pdf

Hi Jean,

I have attached a sketch which shows the reduced size leach fields, which keeps them all out of the stormwater buffer areas, and a line marking the estimated edge of the fill slope associated with the leach field construction.  The estimated fill slope edge is approximately 25’ from the edge of the system.  Our thought is to re-vegetate the fill areas by mulching heavily 3-4 inch depth and planting saplings (oak and maple).

As an fyi the rules are that a leach field must be 20’ away from a house with a basement and 15’ away from a garage.

We would appreciate any comments.

Thank you,

Peter
