Re: Unauthorized Deposition of Materials
In & Adjacent to Waterbodies
9 Waterview Drive, Waterford
Ms. Plateroti,
On February 1, 2024, my office conducted a site visit at property located 9 Waterview Drive at the
request of your contractor and Waterford Dept. of Public Works to assess an erosion issue occurring
along the north side of the property and discharge of eroded materials into the pond,
It was observed that a drainage trench installed along the northern side of the residence has eroded and the
backfill materials were deposited in the downgradient pond. The deposition of material into the pond is
in violation of the Waterford Inland Wetlands & Watercourses regulations.
By this letter, you are requested to:
1. Remove any obstructions within the 18 inch drainage pipe installed along the north side of the
property to promote flow.
2. Install hay bales or stone check dams within the eroded trench on the north side of the residence to
prevent additional erosion and deposition of materials into the downslope channel and/or pond.
3. Contact the Waterford Planning & Development office within 7 days of your receipt of this notice to
discuss temporary and permanent soil stabilization measures and timely removal of eroded materials
from the pond and adjoining lawn area.
4. Within 14 days of receipt of this notice, submit a soil stabilization and materials removal plan
identifying measures to stabilize the eroded trench and the existing channel outlet against further
erosion, and to remove the accumulated materials from the pond edge. The plan must include the
anticipated timing of the stabilization measures, timing for removal of deposited material from the
edge of the pond and temporaty erosion and sediment controls to prevent additional deposition of
material into the water, Please submit the restoration plan to the Environmental Planner. The plan
will be reviewed with the Waterford Conservation Commission for approval of activity in and
adjacent to the waterbody.
