Dear Mark:
SUBJECT: TREE FELLING PERMIT #DRC2010-00009 RELIEF NURSERY--
Tax Map 18-02-05-22, Tax Lot 1400 & Tax Map 18-02-05-23, Tax Lot 101

Listed below are our comments for the above referenced development proposal:
1. The Springfield Utility Board Water Division Engineering Department has no objection
to the proposed tree felling permit.
2. Springfield has several wellhead protection areas. Ninety percent of Springfield's
drinking water comes from wells. In every instance, care shall be taken to prevent
groundwater contamination. Contractors/developers/owners shall be responsible for the
safe handling and storage of chemicals, petroleum products, fertilizers, and the
prevention of groundwater and storm water runoff contamination.
Special requirements may be necessary for groundwater protection at this development.
Contact Amy Chinitz at Springfield Utility Board Water Division for details at 726-2396.
Sincerely,
Rebecca Templin, P.E.
