 In accordance with the provisions of the Massachusetts Wetlands Protection Act, M.G.L. c.131 § 40, its associated Regulations (310 CMR 10.00) and the Town of Dunstable General Wetland Bylaw, the Dunstable Conservation Commission will hold a joint public hearing at its regularly scheduled meeting on Monday, December 8, 2025 at 6:50pm in the Town Hall lower level, to consider a Notice of Intent filed by Joshua & Jennifer West for their property located at 951 Main Street, Map 11, Block 40 Lot 0.  The applicants project proposes the replacement of a septic tank and force main within the 100-foot buffer zone and river front.

No work is proposed within the limits of bordering vegetated wetland (BVW) or 100-year flood plain. There will be no trees removed in the buffer zone/riverfront of the Joint Grass Brook. The NOI is on file in the Commission office at the Town Hall.  Please call 978-649-4514 x230 or email CRock@Dunstable-MA.GOV to review the application.
