When an application is made for a building permit which involves the use of land
in the APOD, the Building Commissioner shall require that the applicant for such
a permit provide a plan of the lot on which the proposed development is intended
showing 2-foot contour intervals. The datum shall be the National Geodetic
Vertical Datum and the bench marks shall be identified on the plan. The plan
shall be stamped by a Registered Engineer or Registered Land Surveyor. The
Building Commissioner shall transmit one (1) copy of the plan to the following
Town agencies for written comments: Department of Public Works, Water
Division, Board of Health, Planning & Zoning Board and Conservation
Commission. 9-3
9.1.9 Design and Operations Guidelines. The following design and operation guidelines shall be
observed within the APODs. 1. Safeguards. Provisions shall be made to protect against toxic or hazardous
material discharge or loss resulting from corrosion, accidental damage, pillage
or vandalism through such measures such as:
a. prohibition of underground fuel storage tanks;
b. spill control provisions in the vicinity of chemical or fuel delivery points;
c. secured storage areas for toxic or hazardous materials;
d. indoor storage provisions for corrodible or dissolvable materials;
e. a closed vapor recovery system for each structure which allows the
evaporation of toxic or hazardous materials into its interior to prevent
discharge of contaminated condensate into the ground water. 2. Location. Where the premises are partially outside the APOD, potential
pollution sources such as on-site waste disposal systems shall be located outside
the District to the extent feasible. 3. Disposal. For any toxic or hazardous wastes to be produced in quantities greater
than those associated with normal household use, the applicant must demonstrate
the availability and feasibility of disposal methods which are in conformance
with G. L. c. 21C, as amended. 4. Drainage.
