At its Sept. 3 meeting the Westport Conservation Commission approved an application to replace a leaching pit and install a new Title 5 septic system at 220C Fisherville Lane. Staff noted the proposed leaching field lies within 90 feet of the coastal bank and within a mapped flood zone; erosion controls were required and would be maintained until the site stabilized.
Staff recommended a Negative 2 and Negative 3 determination for the filing, and the commission approved the work after a motion and second. The record notes the work is separated from nearby resource areas by an existing driveway, and staff emphasized standard conditions to protect the coastal bank and floodplain during construction.
