Parcel/Lot Number
b. Area Description (use additional paper, if necessary):
The lot fronts on what has been historically "FOLLINS POND". It is shown that was on various maps
including the Yarmouth Asssessors Map. The Town of Yarmouth is stating that this body of water is
realy a Riverfront Area, which we strongly disagree. A Narrative is supplied to address certain facts
away from the "RA Theory" into the actual realm of Coastal Bank.

2. a. Work Description (use additional paper and/or provide plan(s) of work, if necessary):
Site has been delineated has having a Coastal Bank with a TOB and a Salt Marsh adjacent to Follins
Pond. Thissite is too far from (518 LF) the centerline of a short river connnecting Follins Pond with
Kelley's Bay to be absorbed into Riverfront status. The angle of entry into Follins Pond by said River is
too obtuse (118 degrees) to be anything but a clear divergent from this river's standard geography. The
embayment that empties into the river also has a narrowing strait (actually 2 straits in Follins Pond) whose
width at 805 LF is approx 3.25 times (x) the normal width (247 LF) of the actual (unnamed river) The
shape factor of this tertiary embayment of Follins Pond is clearly different from that of the actual river
mandating that it acts a a collection embayment to the river and not part of the riverine system itself..
