OLD BUSINESS

A. Buchanan Family LLC (J. Robert Buchanan) permit application for WL crossing - Chestnut Hill
Road
Jason Nemergut attended the meeting to answer any questions that members may have about the permit application for the wetland crossing. A new site plan with some minor corrections was submitted.
T. Doyle moved, seconded by S. Mala, to approve the revised site plan dated August 5, 2009, and a permit be granted. The motion carried with five votes in favor.

B. Notice of Violation sent to Anthony Sansone and August 25th site walk report
Commission members inspected the site on Tuesday, August 25th. Mr. Sansone submitted and discussed a sketch of his plan for a dock on the shoreline of Kroupa's Pond. It was decided that Mr. Sansone will use fir or another similar wood instead of pressure treated wood for the decking. A permit application will be submitted before the next IWWC meeting. Because this corrective activity is a response to the Notice of Violation, it will be voted on at the next meeting.
