volver Club history. It appears that the RRRC obtains ac-
cess to its land via Conservation land. C. Anthony
reviewed the file and found a license agreement that re-
auires the RRRC to pay a fee for the use of the Conserva-
tion land.

visory Committee meeting. DPW Director A.V. Fletcher gave

7:29 DP r s~ntat%on discussion _ drY_ ae .1s, A. V. Fletcher and
DPW Assistant Director W.M. Robertson made the Dresenta-
tion. They outlined problems with dry wells or pits:
leaves, grit., dirt, pine needles, etc.. clog them; a typi-
cal dry well lasts five years. Mr. Fletcher asked why the
Commission regulates 3,500 sq. ft. maximum impervious area
for individual house developments. Subdivision detention
areas have enough capacity to handle individual lot in-
creases. DPW regulations allow no more than 25% impervious
area per lot anyway.
D. Nadeau and W. Robertson will discuss plans for future
subdivision detention area requirements. A stormwater
mitigation subcommittee was formed consisting of J. Lach-
mayr, J. Biller and. J. Keigley.
