The site is currently undergoing redevelopment (raze and replace of a single family home) under a separate
permit (SE83-2321).
The Resource areas affected by the proposed project are: Coastal Beach, Land Containing Shellfish, Land
Under Ocean, Fish Run and Land Subject to Coastal Storm Flowage. The site is within Land Subject to
Coastal Storm Flowage.
A shellfish survey was conducted by John Lowell; the report is enclosed as part of this filing package.
310 CMR 10.27 Coastal Beach
The Coastal Beach is a margin of sand that lies landward of MLW and extends to the toe of concrete wall.
The Beach will continue to respond to wave activity and high tides given the insignificant disturbance from
six 12" pilings which are proposed in this area for pier support. These will impact 4.7 s.f. of bottom area.
Due to the absence of shellfish in this area, no impacts are expected. Only minor, temporary disturbance is
expected at time of installation. There shall be no grounding of the barge at low water. Piles will be
minimally jetted and then driven to refusal, a minimum of 15' embedment. The beach will continue to
respond to wave action and there will be no adverse impacts on storm damage prevention and flood control.
310 CMR 10.34 Land Containing Shellfish, 10.35 Fish Run, & 10.25 Land Under Ocean
The pier will cross over Land Containing Shellfish and Land Under Ocean and is within a Fish Run.
Soundings indicate a minimum of 3' of water at the end of the floats at MLW and 2.5' at the inner portion of
the float. The pilings shall be fiberglass or equivalent. Minimal impacts are expected due to the scarcity of
shellfish.
A shellfish study performed recently by John Lowell under Town of Yarmouth regulations indicated that
there was no significant shellfish population. Out of 70 observation plots, only 2 quahogs, 1 cherrystone
and 2 seed were found. The DEP does not map the area as having eel grass beds and none were
observed. Should shellfish be encountered during construction, they shall be moved and re -planted at the
discretion of the Natural Resources Department.
The minor turbidity from piling installation will have no effect on the Fish Run or shellfishery. The current is
expected to clear the water of any temporary impacts from sediment within the water column. The driving of
piling vs. jetting will minimize sediment disturbances.
RARE SPECIES
The pier is not located in a Priority Habitat or Estimated Habitat for state -listed rare species as shown on
Mass. GIS Oliver Maps dated 2021.

Under Town of Yarmouth Pier Regulations
Dock and pier requirements:
(4) (a)
1. New piers shall be constructed to minimize the blocking of sunlight... Pier construction will be of
non-CCA treated lumber, %" spacing and maximum of 4' wide. Pilings to be fiberglass or equivalent
2. There will be no impact on the mooring field. As of June 2023, there are no moorings within 100' of
the proposed pier (closest mooring is 165' to the south). The pier will not impede navigation; it is shorter
than the immediately abutting piers to either side of it (21' landward of a line drawn between the extents of
the abutting piers/floats). The southerly pier is 105' to the proposed floats; the northerly pier is 100' away.
3. Pier shall not interfere with public recreational use. The pier area is not commonly utilized by tacking
sailboats due to the presence of the existing piers to either side. No commercial marinas, town docks,
swimming areas or landings are impacted. Kayakers are readily seen paddling either under or around
existing piers along Bass River. The Waterways Committee heard this proposal at their meeting of June 12,
2023 and voted to approve as submitted, allowing the variance of 5V in order to obtain 3' of water at MLW.
4. Public right of passage.... A sign is proposed at the pier at MHW informing the public of their right to
pass beneath pier for along shore access.
5. Base of the pier shall be as close as possible to the centerline of the lot. River frontage is
approximately 195'. The pier is roughly centered on the frontage (80' from the northerly lot line extended
and 80' from the southerly line extended. Floats are 105' from the southerly pier and 100' from the northerly
pier.
6.(a) — (k) Project plans and specifications:
Soundings were performed for locus. The ends of the floats are 160'+/- to the channel.
There are no eel grass beds in the area based on DEP mapping and visual inspection.
Moorings are shown based on latest observations (6/6/23).
Construction will be performed by a barge with crane and care taken to avoid grounding at low tide. Cutting
debris, to include sawdust shall be done away from the resource areas with care to contain scraps of wood
from entering the waterway.
Floats and ramp will be stored at the contractor's yard in the off-season.
The soundings survey was performed in 2021 utilizing a boat and survey instrument. Datum utilized is
NAVD '88 and is from site -specific data from the Buzzards Bay Estuary Program, Interactive Tidal Datum
Viewer.
A shellfish study was performed by John Lowell with the report is enclosed herein, performed in accordance
with the Yarmouth guidelines.
7. Lights, if desired, shall adhere to the Yarmouth guidelines: directed downwards and shielded to avoid
disturbing neighbors and disrupting navigation.
8. The pier will be staked for viewing.
-2-
9. Shared use pier not available as an option. Abutters to either side have piers which are fully occupied.
10. The length of the proposed fixed pier portion is 101.5' from MHW, and with ramp and floats it is 131.5'.
This length is necessary to attain the required 3' of water at MLW at the end of the floats without dredging.
On behalf of our client, we are requesting a variance to allow the pier to be greater than 80' from MHW due
to hardship conditions. The Commission may, "at its discretion waive one or more of these regulations
when the proposed work... will not adversely affect any areas subject to the protection of these regulations".
See Yarmouth Wetland Regulations, section 4.01. There will be no significant adverse effect whatsoever to
any areas subject to the protection of these regulations. Note that this pier will be shorter than the
immediately abutting piers by about 21' when a line is drawn between the extents of the 2 abutting piers.
We maintain that it is better environmentally to attain the 3' minimum depth at MLW than to construct a
length -conforming pier which could only be used from mid to high tide. Realistically, there is nothing to
prevent a motorboat from docking in less than 3' of water — which would directly impact substrate leading to
turbidity, prop dredging and shellfish habitat disturbance. Maintaining the floats in 3' of water at MLW with
even greater depths as one heads out to the channel meets the intent of the regulations to minimize boat
traffic impacts, thereby not being more detrimental to the public and/or shellfishery. A variance is further
warranted because of alterations in bottom topography over the years caused by the old stone groins. The
applicants are willing to provide an additional public benefit in the form of purchasing shellfish to benefit the
public good for areas that the Natural Resources Department deems lacking. Accordingly, the proposed
project meets the criteria for the Commission to vary the pier length requirement.
11. n/a (not a pier expansion)
12 New docks/piers shall not be allowed within:
(a) 75' of adjacent docks. The floats will be 105' from the southerly abutting pier and 100' to the
northerly pier
(b) 100' of a navigable channel or mooring. The outermost floats are greater than 100' to the channel
and mooring(s)
(c) 250' from public boat ramp, public landing, and swimming beach. Pier is greater than 250' from
public boat ramp, public landing and swimming beach
(d) No new pier shall be closer than 25' to a property line. The new pier will be greater than 79' from the
projected lot lines..
13. Floats will be 198 s.f. (<200 sf max. allowed)
14. n/a (not an expansion of existing dock)
15. Alternative materials recommended ..... Fiberglass, non-CCA and/orAzek to be utilized.
16. Dock is in an allowable area based on Yarmouth map
17. n/a (not a public project)
18. n/a (not an existing dock)
19. n/a (not an existing dock)
