(BSC) is pleased to submit this Request to for Certificate of Compliance (RCOC) on behalf of Dawn Karol (the Applicant), for the property located at 49 South Shore Drive and 51 South Shore Drive, (the Site) in South Yarmouth. The permitted project at the Site included the construction of a stone revetment wall across both properties, grading above the stone revetment wall, and a viewing platform and stairway at each property, spanning a portion of the wall. This OOC was extended on 2/22/2010 and 5/15/2015 (under the Permit Extension Act) to the date of 4/5/2016. This application is being submitted in accordance with the Massachusetts Wetlands Protection Act and the Town of Yarmouth Wetlands Protection By-law and associated Regulations. BSC conducted an inspection to confirm the current condition of the Site and the state of the permitted work under the Order of Conditions (OOC), DEP File #SE083-1774, issued on 4/5/2007. All work associated with the stone revetment wall and grading across both properties was not conducted. The viewing platform and stairway at 49 South Shore Drive was not built. The viewing platform (4’ x 10’) with attached stairway at 51 South Shore Drive was built in the general permitted location as shown in the plan dated April 3, 2007, listed in the OOC, but the stairway(s) are in total 24 square feet (sf) smaller (due to the reduction in stairs) than the permitted structure. The stairway and viewing platform constructed at 51 South Shore Drive, and current site conditions are reflected in the As -built plan associated with the Request for Determination of Applicability (RDA) application for 49 South Shore Drive submitted on 6/13/24. Attached please find the WPA Form 8A, Photo Pages, RCOC Application Checklist. If you have any questions or require additional information, please contact our office at (508) 778-8919 or via email at hraddatz@bscgroup.com or byergatian@bscgroup.com. Sincerely, BSC Group, Inc.

This request is being made by: Dawn Karol Name 424 Adams Street Mailing Address Milton City/Town MA State 02186 Zip Code 617-543-7022 Phone Number 2. This request is in reference to work regulated by a final Order of Conditions issued to: Dawn Karol Applicant 4/5/2007 Dated 83-1774 DEP File Number Upon completion of the work authorized in an Order of Conditions, the property owner must request a Certificate of Compliance from the issuing authority stating that the work or portion of the work has been satisfactorily completed. 3. The project site is located at: 49 & 51 South Shore Drive Street Address Yarmouth City/Town 19 Assessors Map/Plat Number 9 & 10 Parcel/Lot Number 4. The final Order of Conditions was recorded at the Registry of Deeds for: Dawn Karol Property Owner (if different) Barnstable County 15764 (49) & 15765 (51) Book 275 (49) & 25 (51) Page Certificate (if registered land) 5. This request is for certification that (check one): the work regulated by the above-referenced Order of Conditions has been satisfactorily completed. the following portions of the work regulated by the above-referenced Order of Conditions have been satisfactorily completed (use additional paper if necessary). The stairway and observation platform built in front of 51 South Shore does not match the orientation of the permitted plans, but is smaller (by 24 sf) than what was originally permitted. The structure could not be built in the exact permitted location due to the absence of the stone revetment which was not constructed. The observation platform and stairway were constructed as close to the permitted location as possible, given the current site conditions. the above-referenced Order of Conditions has lapsed and is therefore no longer valid, and the work regulated by it was never started. wpaform8a.doc •• rev. 5/29/14 Page 2 of 2 Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection Bureau of Resource Protection - Wetlands WPA Form 8A – Request for Certificate of Compliance Massachusetts Wetlands Protection Act M.G.L. c. 131, §40 Town of Yarmouth Wetland By-law, Chapter 143 DEP File Number: 83-1774 Provided by DEP A.
