RE: Request for Certificate of Compliance, SE 83-1454, 8 Channel Point Drive, West
Yarmouth, Massachusetts; BSC Job #50387.00
Dear Ms. Grant and Members of the Conservation Commission:
BSC Group, Inc. (BSC) is pleased to submit this Request to for Certificate of Compliance
(RCOC) on behalf of our client, John & Matt Spillane, for the property located at 8 Channel
Point Drive, West Yarmouth (the Site). The permitted project at the Site involved the various
landscaping and gravel driveways. The Order of Conditions (OOC), DEP File #SE83-1546,
was issued on 7/6/1998. On April 29, 2021, Paul Mancuso of BSC, conducted an inspection
to confirm the current condition of the site. Despite the project being completed ~20 years
ago, a majority of the work remains in significant compliance with the OOC and approved
project plans. The gravel driveways, the Japanese Knotweed removal from the lawn, the
existing wild rose area, and the planted Rugosa rose area still in compliance with the OOC.
Some of the areas planted with Rugosa rose have been colonized by other vegetation species
as well which could be expected after 20 years.
Enclosed in the Request for a Certificate of Compliance please find….
1. Yarmouth COC Checklist
2. WPA Form 8A
3. Order of Conditions
4. Site photos.
This application is being submitted in accordance with the Massachusetts Wetlands
