Norwich IWWCC approves two wetland-permit modifications, tables new Farmview application
Summary
The Norwich Inland Wetlands and Watercourses Commission approved modifications to two inland-wetlands permits that reduced wetland impacts and shortened planned roadway length; commissioners found the plans' erosion-and-sediment controls sufficient. A new application for 33 Farmview Drive was tabled.
At a meeting (date not specified in the transcript), the Norwich Inland Wetlands and Watercourses Commission approved changes to two previously filed inland-wetlands applications, finding the revised plans reduce wetland impacts and include sufficient erosion-and-sediment (E&S) controls.
Consultant Greg Fettis of Fettis Engineering said revisions to a Canterbury Turnpike subdivision (IWWCC 25-0889) moved houses and septic systems on Lots 5 and 7 away from the 100-foot regulated-review area so that the only remaining impact on Lot 5 is the driveway and Lot 7 requires only a small amount of grading in the regulated area. "We pushed it back. That allowed us to push the house back in the grading and the septic system out of the 100 foot regulated review area," Fettis told the commission.
