Summary

The Bridgewater Conservation Commission closed the continued Notice of Intent for the Old State Farm (Map 90 Lot 999A) and voted to issue a standard order of conditions after Silver Engineering said the proposal was largely unchanged and town‑benefit replication is limited to 1:1.

Marilyn McDonald, chair of the Bridgewater Conservation Commission, closed a continued hearing on the Old State Farm Notice of Intent (Summer Street, Map 90 Lot 999A; DEP file SC116‑1Fifth1581) and directed staff to issue a standard order of conditions. Rebecca of Silver Engineering described the filing as a continuation of a previously reviewed plan and said the town project would minimize disturbance and seek a 1:1 replication rather than a 2:1 mitigation ratio.

"I thought the environmental structures going in were very friendly to the environment," McDonald said, adding she had "enough information" to close the hearing. The commission then moved, seconded and adopted the order of conditions by roll‑call vote with all members present voting aye. The decision is subject to the 10‑business‑day appeal period to MassDEP noted in the hearing procedures.
