Map 29,Parcels 190 &191
On behalf of my client,Martin Dugal,please accept this request for a Certificate of Compliance for the abovereferencedproject.A site inspection was performed by Shorefront Consulting on July 19,2022.The proposedworkiscomplete.An As-built plan was not required to close out this project.Photographs of the completed work
are included in this request.The project was monitored and inspected by Shorefront Consulting during the 2014constructionprocess.The walkway was constructed substantially in accordance with the plans and one approvedficldchange,dated July 21.2015.The field change was to add an additional kayak rack to the walkway.and acanoerackonthelawn,which has been completed.There was a separate request submitted in September 15,2015 to extend the walkway with a revised plan.This request was not approved.The walkwaywas constructedwithonlyminorchangesindimensionsandmaterialsasnotedbelow.The vegetated buffer that was enhanced
per note 11 on the plan appears to be in good condition.
1)The walkway is 3.4 feet wide between the handrails.where the plan showed 4 feet.
2)The clearance over the marsh was measured and is approximately 3.5 feet to the underlving structural
member,where 4 feet to the decking was shown on the plan.Since the support stringers are 2°x107s (9.5incheshigh),and the decking is 2”x6”(1.5 inches high),the decking is approximately 11 inches abovethe3.5 feet,for a deck height of 4 feet,5 inches,about 3 inches higher than shown on the plan.Therefore.the deck is approximately 5 inches higher than the plan showed.
3)The piles are in a slightly different position than shown on the plan;the outer pile is landward about 2
feet,and the landward pile is about 4 feet further landward.the spacing is now 20 feet instead of 18.Themarshiscompletelygrowninunderthedockandaroundthepiles.
4)The outer posts that support the end of the steps is a 4x6”instead of 6”square.
5)The landward posts for the start of the walkway are 4x4"instead of 67"x6™,
6)The deck spacing is larger (1 inch)instead of the %inch that is shown on the plan.
7)The 2-inch caliper beech tree that was proposed on the southwest lawn was installed.but landward of the
kayak rack,instead of seaward of it.It can be seen in the background for one of the photos of the kayakrack.Also,an additional evergreen tree was planted on the southwest corner of the lot.Several additionaltallshrubsofapproximatelythesamesizewereplantedonthefencelinetothenorthwheresomeinvasiveshrubswereremoved(note on record plan indicates administrative approval on 12-17-14).
The above changes do not substantially affect the project either structurally or physically in a negative way.The
most substantial changes,such as the width and the height.arc positive changes with respect to the environment.
Therefore,the project has been completed in accordance with the Order of Conditions.and all Special Conditions
contained in SE-83-2009 issued on 12/19/14.Attached please find Yarmouth form WPA-8A Request for
Certificate of Compliance,photos of the completed project,and a check for $75 made payable to the Town of
Yarmouth.As noted in the certificate of compliance form.this letter is also signed by Mr.Dugal.a professional
engineer.
