BACKGROUND
On August 5, 2025, BETA staff visited the Yarmouth Riverwalk Park Site located at 669 Route 28 in
Yarmouth, MA to perform environmental monitoring during the Phase 1 construction period. The purpose
of this inspection was to document the conditions of the salt marsh, erosion controls, and park during
Phase 1 of construction. The following was observed during the inspection:
CURRENT CONSTRUCTION
Construction of the site is underway (Photo 1), and the following approved site elements have been
constructed or partially constructed:
Invasive species have been removed throughout the site;
Construction of the boardwalk has been substantially completed (Photo 2);
Construction of the playground has been substantially completed (Photo 3);
Stormwater infrastructure has been installed;
Stabilized aggregate walking paths have been installed (Photo 4);
Plantings have been installed;
Some site elements including light fixtures, bikes racks, and benches have been installed;
Pavement has been installed where proposed (Photo 4);
Portions of the site have become partially stabilized;
Utilities have been partially installed; and
The restroom facility has been partially constructed (Photo 5).
During the site visit, no work was occurring.
BOARDWALK/SALT MARSH
During this inspection areas of exposed soil in the salt marsh adjacent to the constructed boardwalk were
measured using drone and on the ground measurements (Attachment A). Generally, areas of exposed soil
on the eastern side of the boardwalk have become revegetated (Photos 6 and 7). The western side of the
boardwalk was observed as having less vegetative cover than the eastern side of the boardwalk (Photos
8 and 9). The salt marsh conditions will continue to be monitored, and supplemental plantings proposed
to be planted in areas of exposed soil can be found in Attachment A.

Site Monitoring
August 22, 2025
Page 2 of 3
Plugs and seed were installed within the area of exposed soil on both the eastern and western trail
upgradient of the salt marsh (Photo 10 and 11). Erosion controls upgradient of the salt marsh were
recently replaced and are in good condition. These areas will continue to be monitored to determine if
supplementary seeding is necessary.
EROSION CONTROLS
Two (2) layers of erosion controls consisting of silt fence and compost filter tubes are present along a
majority of the limits of work (Photo 12), except in locations where compost filter tubes have been
removed and in locations where silt fence was not proposed. Compost filter tubes were observed in
varying stages of biodegradation in multiple locations throughout the site. All erosion controls in proximity
to Resource Areas, including the Parker River, were observed in good condition (Photo 13), and no
sedimentation was observed past the limits of work. To ensure no sediment enters Resource Areas,
erosion controls should be maintained.
During this site visit, a section of erosion controls adjacent to the to the woodland path and erosion
controls along the woodland path were approved for removal (Photo 14) and another section was
approved for relocation. This is further discussed in Attachment A.
RIVERWALK PARK
Currently, Phase 1 of the Riverwalk Park is under construction. There is one (1) soil stockpile located onsite
associated with active construction and stabilization. Stabilization of stockpiles should commence if active
work is not occurring, or within 14 days of the cessation of work in the area. Exposed soil that requires
stabilization is present throughout the site in areas where work is ongoing (Photos 3 and 4). Erosion
controls were found to be in good condition downgradient of all areas of exposed soil.
During this inspection, no significant invasive plant species pressure was observed internal of erosion
controls; however, the site should continue to be monitored for success of the invasive species removal
plan. Species including bush honeysuckle (Lonicera spp.), autumn olive (Elaeagnus umbellate), black
swallowwort (Cynanchum louiseae), and bittersweet (Celastrus orbiculatus) were observed in small
populations outside of the limits of work directly adjacent to erosion controls. Japanese knotweed
(Fallopia japonica) was also observed within a planted area, where a large population was removed (Photo
15). Additionally, a population of bittersweet was observed (Photo 16) within the boulders adjacent to
the walking path. The population of cypress spurge (Euphorbia cyparissias) – a species considered likely
invasive by the Massachusetts Invasive Plant Advisory Group (MIPAG) - is present within the boulders
adjacent to the walking path.
SUMMARY
Currently, Phase 1 of the Yarmouth Riverwalk Park and Boardwalk Project is near completion, with work
primarily concentrated at the Phase 2 restroom facility, an future work associated with installation of the
kayak launch. Generally, pathway work is now complete and stabilization of the remainder of exposed soil
is required. Observations made during the August 5, 2025 site inspection include the following:
Areas of exposed soil within the salt marsh adjacent to the boardwalk have been measured and
proposed installation of plugs can be found in Attachment A,
Plugs and seed have been installed within the areas of exposed soil adjacent to the western and
eastern side of the boardwalk upgradient of salt mash,
Erosion/sediment controls throughout the site are in varying condition, with all erosion controls
upgradient of Resource Areas being in good condition,
August 22, 2025
Page 3 of 3
With review and concurrence with Conservation, upland erosion controls may be removed in
some areas,
Areas of exposed soil that require stabilization are present throughout the site but generally were
found to have erosion controls downgradient,
Soil stockpiles at the site that are currently being used and should be temporarily stabilized if not
in use for 14 days or more,
Minor invasive plant species presence /pressure was observed outside of the work area directly
adjacent to erosion controls and within a naturalized area near the kayak launch.

Marsh Site Walk
BETA GROUP, INC.
www.BETA-Inc.com
BACKGROUND
On August 5, 2025, a site walk was conducted to assess current conditions of the Riverwalk Park as well
as discuss conditions found at the salt marsh and proposed removal of specific locations of erosion
controls. Attendees of the site walk included:
- Brittany DiRienzo, Town of Yarmouth
- Amanda Lima, Town of Yarmouth
- Kevin Morrissey, Town of Yarmouth
- Arek Galle, BETA Group Inc.
- Laura Krause, BETA Group Inc.
- Bill McGrath, BETA Group Inc.
- Andrew Pichette, BETA Group Inc.
- Anna Haznar, BETA Group Inc.
- David Ankener, BETA Group Inc.
- Rob Doane, Robert B Our Co Inc.
- Justin Spurr, Robert B Our Co Inc.
- Jay Merriman, Chase Landscape Inc
The following items were reviewed and discussed at the site walk:
1. SALT MARSH RECOVERY
During this site walk pink survey flags were placed along the perimeter of exposed soils within the salt
marsh. These locations were approved by the Conservation Administrator as locations requiring
installation of supplemental plantings. Drone footage and on the ground measurements were then taken
to determine the extent of exposed soil within the salt marsh. Four (4) distinct areas (W-1, W-2, C-1, and
C-2) totaling approximately 3,950 square feet of exposed soil were mapped throughout the salt marsh. It
was determined that bare root plug plantings will be installed in these areas. Areas of high marsh will be
supplemented with salt meadow cordgrass (Spartina patens) and areas of lower marsh will be
supplemented with smooth cordgrass (Spartina alterniflora). The location of species has been determined
by topography and by observing species growing in the general vicinity of the proposed plantings.
Plantings for each area as follows:

Page 2 of 3
Marsh grass plug plantings shall be installed approximately 18-inches on center. Bare root plugs will be
installed per Natural Resource Conservation Service (NRCS)1 guidelines which states; 1) installation of
plugs should occur before September 30th, 2) into holes that are approximately 3 inches in diameters, and
3) deep enough to fully cover the roots when fully extended.
2. TREES PLANTED IN SALT MARSH
Eastern Red Cedar trees (Juniperus virginiana) were planted in the marsh in 2024 as visual screens as
required for neighbor mitigation during the permitting process. Eight (8) trees were planted in 2024. Five
trees were omitted from the planting in 2024 due to conflicts with the helical pile installation work. They
remain to be planted in 2025. Several of the trees that were planted did not survive the winter. The
following decisions were made: 1) Trees planted in 2024 that were determined to be dead or showing low
vigor and growth shall be left in place. Any burlap, rope and tree stakes shall be removed. 2) The missing
five trees and tree replacements to offset dead trees installed in 2024 shall be planted. 3) The new trees
may be furnished at a smaller size than originally specified (7’h-8’h B&B) 4) Additional trees may be
required depending on the size sourced and proposed, contingent on availability. 4) The new trees shall
be planted at higher marsh elevations and closer to existing trees where possible, generally off to the
north-west of Overlook #3.
3. ILEX OPACA -HOLLY TREE PLANTINGS
The project specifies plantings of American Holly (Ilex opaca) in wooded areas of the project along the
woodland trails. These will supplement existing holly trees observed to occur on site. Jay Merriman of
Chase Landscape advised that sourcing the holly trees specified was presenting challenges. The
Conservation Administrator was of the opinion that the native species (Ilex opaca) sourced at a smaller
size than specified (4’h-6’h B&B) and in an increased quantity could be considered as a substitution. It was
also discussed that a small percentage of the holly trees could be furnished as a cultivar such as Ilex x
‘Nellie R. Stevens’, along with smaller, native Ilex opaca resulting in a mix. Chase Landscape advised they
will continue to source plant material and provide options to the group based on their research on
availability.
4. UPLAND EROSION CONTROLS
A review of the erosion controls in the forested areas was conducted. Approval by the Conservation
Administrator was granted to remove silt fence erosion controls along the woodland pathways leading to
the boardwalk approaches. The existing straw wattles immediately up-gradient to the salt marsh at the
eastern approach will remain in place on the east approach. Replacement/repairs shall be made as
needed. Locations where erosion controls were approved for removal are approved to be finish graded
and stabilized with the approved seed mix. A portion of the silt fence erosion controls east of the at the
convergence of the two paths in the woods was approved to be reconfigured to facilitate grading and
drainage. Erosion controls in place closest to the Parkers River will remain at the limits of work and will
be monitored to ensure they are in good condition. See attached plan calling out locations for erosion
control removal, relocation, and maintenance, as discussed in the field.
