wastewater flows will not increase. Wastewater will be treated and disposed off in accordance
with 314 CMR 5.00.The design flow for the proposed wastewater treatment facility is 27,620
gallons per day.

79)subject to the following conditions:

Please be advised that this approval is not a Groundwater Discharge Permit. It does,
however, authorize the project proponent to submit an Individual Groundwater Discharge Permit
application for the discharge described at the evaluated location. The Department requires that
the Individual Groundwater Discharge Permit application (BRPWP 79) be accompanied by a
transmittal form and include all required supporting documentation. Included in the supporting
documentation shall be a certification from a Massachusetts Registered Professional Engineer
that the approved Hydrogeological Report has been reviewed and accurately reflects site
conditions as of the date of the permit application. Information on any changes noted during the
review shall be included in the Engineering Report that accompanies the application.
Should you have any questions regarding this matter, please contact Christos Dimisioris at
