RE: 291 & 301 South Shore Drive, S. Yarmouth; SE 83-2233 - Certificate of
Compliance — Beach Nourishment and Beach Maintenance — Blue Water Limited
Partnership
To the Conservation Commission,
Attached please find Form 8A and a check in the amount of $75. The applicant is
requesting a Certificate of Compliance.
A new Notice of Intent is currently in the application process for purposes of re -applying
for the activities related to this COC.
During the term of the OOC the ownership changed. Beach raking activity occurred
during the term of the OOC. No sediment replenishment activity was done during the
term. During the summer of 2025 I observed roped — off piping plover refuge areas in
place on the beach area. Record keeping for the NHESP protocols is sparse and we have
no firsthand information about earlier bird management at the site. Town of Yarmouth
Conservation Commission enforcement action on an unrelated matter (seasonal deck)
triggered a more focused approach to the NHESP requirements.
The activities regulated by the OOC are not related to structures or geologic alterations
and no known or measurable detrimental impacts occurred because of either lapses in
monitoring or lapses in the record — keeping. However, the process of monitoring and
record keeping is the only way to prove compliance. Given the circumstances and
benefit of the doubt about adverse impacts and the commitment of improved compliance
going forward through the force of a subsequent OOC the Commission can find it
appropriate to issue a Certificate of Compliance.
Sincerely,
Cape Cod Engi eying, Inc.
