Subject:RDA, Pelletier, 188 South Street, Yarmouth
Date:Wednesday, December 17, 2025 12:49:39 PM
Dear Commissioners:
The Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries (MA DMF) has reviewed the Request for
Determination of Applicability (RDA) by Richard Pelletier, Trustee to replace float anchor
pilings at the existing docking facility at 188 South Street in the Town of Yarmouth. The project
was reviewed with respect to potential impacts to marine fisheries resources and habitat.
Based on the scope of the project as currently proposed, MA DMF recommends that any
activities requiring a barge should be coordinated to avoid barge grounding or operation in
intertidal habitat or shallow water (less than 2 feet between motor skeg and substrate) over
mapped shellfish habitat. MA DMF has no additional recommendations for methods,
sequencing, or timing that would further avoid or minimize impacts to marine resources at
this time.
Questions regarding this review can be directed to Amanda Davis in our New Bedford office at
amanda.davis@mass.gov.
Sincerely,
Kara Falvey
