Stormwater Open Meeting & Roll Call Town Hall In attendance were John Rabbitt (Conservation), Matt Proctor (Resident Contractor), Adam Burney (Land Use Director), Todd Dwyer (Selectman), John Beale via Zoom (Resident Engineer), Perry Jewel (liason), Danielle Marr (Secretary). 2. Member & Public Comment Stormwater group is selling rain barrel and compost bins- $80 for the pair. Call DPW if interested. Upcoming Earth Day Activities/Events - Saturday February 24th from 10AM-3PM – Meadow (Alpaca) Farm - Pollination garden information session – located on Hollis Road from 10-12 - Clean Up’s by snow riders – looking for volunteers. 3. MS4 Presentation by Nick Cristofori from CEI… (Town Storm Water Consultant) Previous meeting Nick was unable to attend but a brief discussion with the basic info was discussed. Under MS4 program Lunenburg is required to complete a number of activities and provide a brief status update. - Question by Jack in regards to IDDE Training program. There is concern about yearly requirement of training and new employee training. Nick confirmed training is required annually but towns typically do this on their own as opposed to having a consultation. In the past few years, 2 DPW employees attended the Central Mass Regional Stormwater Coalition free training. - Inquiry by Jack about MS4 training in 2020 and 2021. The results from 2020 show a class of 7 members completed a 1 hour training. Inquiry into whether this was an adequate amount of training. The permit does not specify training but in past they have completed a 1 hour presentation. Nick says he is willing to elaborate and provide more training and paperwork for study although this is not typically done in other towns. Central mass Framingham DPW offers 3 hour training with hands on experience including reviewing reports and results. Jack states he ===PAGE 2=== doesn’t want to just want to just meet minimum requirements. Currently there is no DPW director which would be needed to gain more information for training and development. - Inquiry about Training package- Currently there has only been 2 trainings. Training for operators and individuals cleaning out catch basins and outfalls. Jack wants more emphasis on training and will look into additional training options. - Concern about location of underground infiltration systems. Some underground infiltration systems were searched for but it was deemed unlikely that they even exist. After 2 rounds of tests there were not many underground locations found even where some were expected to be there. - 17 known stormwaters were inspected. Currently CEI inspections are annual as part of package. This may be discussed and changed in future once a DPW director is employed. Groups shows interest in training town employees to do these inspections and document. - Question- Does CEI give recommendations on other locations with adding swale or dentition pond. Draft provided with potential stormwater BMP locations on municipal properties may be a good opportunity to look into further. - Question- Is there funding available to put these practices in for areas with flooding, etc.? Town is not responsible for managing storm water on private properties. - Fundings and Massworks grants are available that are not town money. We would need grant writer. Follow up with Heather about asset management grant being submitted. Timeline: o Map all outfalls by end of year 2 and map of pipes by end of year 10. o Slide 36 of agenda shows outfalls- per permits need to be inspected all outfalls or dry weather flow by end of year 3 . As previously discussed, we tried to inspect but unable to find them all (typical for most communities). o Town will need to construct a demonstration BMP by end of year 6 to meet requirements. o By year 10 they need to map catch basins, manholes and pipe interconnectivity. Currently town is finalizing asset management grant which will include size of pipe, elevation of invert, outlet, rim, and sump. By year 10 – estimated to be 95% complete with 5% being human error. Stormwater inspection report – General concern about red flag locations but documentation states no inspection is required, no immediate actions. - Nick- wants to make BMP condition manageable and reasonable for DPW and staff to complete. Per permit everything needs to be inspected annually. Results show that our town BMP condition was quite good conduction and evaluation checklist can be provided to group as requested. - Inquiry as to whether residents will now be aware of locations of outfalls and catch basins for them to check in on and report back. Earthtech came in 2007 to identify all our stormwater outfalls and catch basins. Lunenburg needs to take calculations a year apart in order to see how much sediment ===PAGE 3=== accumulates within a year. Ideal to create routes of cleaning needing to be done once a year. Need to have this data in order to calculate how much sediment is being collected. - In past year plans were bid, constructed, then finalized. In 2020 plans were submitted by the stormwater bylaw to town meeting. In November 2020, bylaw was passed and effective May 2021. Zero projects of as-builts are under construction. - Matt spoke to drivers cleaning catch basins. Truck not outfitted correctly in order to achieve more cleaning of catch basins. More realistic to have outside vendor to do the cleaning as opposed to buying expensive vac truck. This would include having to pay for maintenance and the fact that it would only be used for 4 weeks out of the entire year. Interest in bringing in subcontractor to get a jump on the cleaning. Community develops plan that catch basins should never be more than half full. Most communities outsource and use subcontractor. Ideally want to create routes and complete internally. Plan works to evaluate which catch basins need to be cleaned more regularly. Use this data to further expand and detail plan. Street sweeping – 10 miles less cleaning than previous year of 2020. Sweeping is supposed to be done once a year. Nick leaves 9:15 4. Task Force Member Update and Vote on Additional Membership Paula Bertram is vacating board but will still be able to attend meetings. Jack wants to take a vote to increase members from 5 to 7. Ideally would like to add additional resident representatives from each of the 2 lakes. At this point Jack feels as though Paula and Perry will be good additions. Perry will be coming to meetings as liaison. Disagreement on whether town and liaisons should be able to vote. Danielle Marr listed as new board clerk/secretary. 5. Website Discussion Paula was not at meeting- Will discuss at later meeting. 6. Who gets the Storm Water Emails and responds? Emails go to everyone on the committee, town manager, DPW director, Adam Burney. 7. Identify possible Next Meeting Agenda Items. Stonewall utility. Additional training opportunities. Look into Town engineer or consultation would be used to do assessment and soil borings. Create storyboard in order to gain public awareness and involvement in regards to MS4. 8. Next Meeting ===PAGE 4=== May 19th at 7PM 9. Public Comment No public comment. 10. Committee Member Comment None. Meeting meet expectation based on agenda. Motion to Adjourn was made at 9:27 by Todd Dwyer, seconded by Matt Proctor. ======================================================================================== DOCUMENT : 2022-06-16-agenda-5808.txt BOARD : stormwater-task-force DATE : 2022-06-16 KIND : agenda OUR COPY : https://lunenburgbudgetproject.org/docs/minutes/text/stormwater-task-force/2022-06-16-agenda-5808.txt TOWN PDF : https://www.lunenburgma.gov/AgendaCenter/ViewFile/Agenda/_06162022-5808 ======================================================================================== ===PAGE 1=== June 16, 2022 Ritter Memorial Building 960 Massachusetts Ave. 7:00 PM Agenda 1.

Open Meeting & Roll Call Meeting opened at 7:05 PM by Adam Burney. Amanda Reid (Planning Board), John Beale (Member), Todd Dwyer (Chair), Richard tremble (Vice Chair), Bill Bernard (DPW), Adam Burney (Land use Director), and Danielle Marr (Secretary). 2. Committee Reorganization Todd Dwyer volunteers to be Chair as he has been on the committee the longest. Bill Bernard nominates Todd Dwyer as Chair- seconded by John Beale. Todd nominates Richard Tremble as Vice Chair- seconded by Amanda Reid. 3. Public Comment The main priority of the newly appointed Chair, Todd Dwyer, is to manage and make sure that the MS4 Permit is executed. Todd Dwyer wants to look into a way to better track where the stormwater dollars are being expended. 4. Review & Approve Minutes Danielle Marr to send prior meeting minutes to Adam Burney to then add them for approval to the next meeting. 5. Task Force Member Updates 3 new members have joined the Stormwater Committee and there is a new DPW director, Bill Bernard. 6. Asset Management Grant Update Town applied for and received an asset management grant. This grant is to map all physical infrastructure assets that the town has (catch basins, piping, outfalls, manhole). This will be a roughly 78,000-dollar grant from the state and is a requirement of the MS4 permit by year 10. Up to this point in the permit timeline, we are required to do outfall screening to see if during dry weather (48 hours without rainfall) the outfalls are running. This is mainly to check to see if there are any illicit discharges. 490 of the outfalls in town have been found, photographed, sampled, tested (phosphorus, chlorine), and plotted on a map. There are 500 outfalls in the town. ===PAGE 2=== Another application has been submitted for financial assistance regarding catch basins. This grant will look to identify where pipes connect to catch basins, where manholes are, and in which direction the water is flowing. The cost has been reduced because DEP is providing funding to accomplish this task. This is anticipated to start in spring. 7. Ongoing Items: Future Actions from Meeting with CEI (21 April 2022) The town is required annually to do elicit discharge detection and elimination training for the DPW employees. If a DPW employee finds an outfall that was running, and testing shows that it is defective they will be trained in the procedure to track down where it’s coming from. CEI has done training in town and the Central Mass Stormwater Coalition has also offered training free of charge. Adam Burney to communicate with Nick Cristofori to get the file with the GIS layer information. The file was provided to the prior DPW director, but the new DPW director has not gained access yet. Encumbering 20,000 dollars from this grant will be used to start the first 2 tasks to create information for the Enterprise account. CEI will look at other communities that have Enterprise accounts for reference. The Enterprise account is beneficial because there is no competition for funding and is typically already in the DPW budget. The biggest task for this grant is mapping with aerial photography and GIS information to implement the impervious cover model. Todd Dwyer wants Bill Bernard to create a spreadsheet with man hours being used towards stormwater tasks on a weekly basis. This tracking will help calculate what we need for capital funding. Website Updates No current updates. The town is looking into new website vendors, so this task has been put on hold. 8. Items for Next Meeting Adam Burney is reaching out to get Nick Cristofori to come to the next meeting to review previous work that CEI has already completed. Todd asks new members to review annual reports online and all information that is already on the website. New members to review info and come to the next meeting with questions for the committee and Nick Cristofori. ===PAGE 3=== Bill Bernard at DPW has added 2 new employees and is in the process of finding 1 additional employee. 9. Next Meeting Dates October 20 at 7 pm. 10. Public Comment Bill Bernard has completed stormwater training with BMPs and will share PowerPoint with the committee for additional information. 11. Committee Member Comment Discussion about looking into a hybrid option and setting up a zoom room for the next meeting. Adam Burney will speak to Dan about possibly setting this up as an option. 12. Adjourn Motion to adjourn was made at 7:42 PM by John Beale, seconded by Amanda Reid. ======================================================================================== DOCUMENT : 2022-10-20-agenda-5809.txt BOARD : stormwater-task-force DATE : 2022-10-20 KIND : agenda OUR COPY : https://lunenburgbudgetproject.org/docs/minutes/text/stormwater-task-force/2022-10-20-agenda-5809.txt TOWN PDF : https://www.lunenburgma.gov/AgendaCenter/ViewFile/Agenda/_10202022-5809 ======================================================================================== ===PAGE 1=== October 20, 2022 Ritter Memorial Building 960 Massachusetts Ave. 7:00 PM Agenda 1.
