ATTACHMENT 1
BARTLETT BAY TREATMENT FACILITY
SITE PLAN APPLICATION
LANDSCAPING
1. The majority of this lot is surrounded by woods and is well screened.
Discussions with the Wastewater Superintendent revealed that the only
desired additional landscaping would be a continuation of the hedge along
the eastern property line. The demonstration treatment facility will
provide a beautifully landscaped atmosphere within the greenhouse
structure.
EXTERIOR LIGHTING
Proposed
1. An exterior flood light is located on the east side of the proposed building.
The fixture is to be down casting, high pressure sodium type with dual
beam (see attached sheet). One beam is to face the new gravel parking lot
and the other is to light the entrance to the proposed structure.
Existin
1. Existing flood lighting is as shown on the plans and cut sheet attached.
OTHER SITE IMPROVEMENTS
1. A security fence and gate will be added to separate the existing facility
from the demonstration facility. A 20' wide gate with 10' of fencing on
either side was deemed adequate by the Wastewater Superintendent.
The 10' deep drainage swail and the wooded area will prevent access
around the fence/gate area.
2. The paved access road will be restored to existing condition after
construction is complete.

costs, is $60 which is not being met. The applicant is seeking a
credit for this amount. Staff supports granting the credit since
the amount is small and the site is well landscaped.
Sewer: No additional allocation needed.
Traffic: No additional traffic will be generated.
Lighting: Lighting consists of five (5) building mounted 200 watt
high pressure sodium lamps.
Dumpster: The dumpster storage area is screened.
4 ) CIT'it' OF SOUTH BURLINGTON - GREENHOUSE TREATMENT BUILDING, - SITE
PLAN
This project consists of the construction of a 7872 square foot
greenhouse wastewater treatment facility and 240 square foot
accessory structure on the site of an existing wastewater treatment
facility (Bartlett Bay).
This property located at 15 Bartlett Bay Road lies within the R1
District. It is bounded on the east by the Central Vermont Railway
r.o.w., on the south by Bartlett Bay Road, on the west by a single y�rNr�
family residence, and on the north by undeveloped property. r
Access/circulation: The existing access is via a 20 foot curb cut
on Bartlett Bay Road. No changes proposed.
Circulation is adequate.
Coverage/setbacks: Building coverage is 8.2% (maximum allowed is
15%). Overall coverage is 27.2% (maximum allowed is 25%). Overall
coverage is being exceeded but since the City is not subject to its
zoning regulations, this is not an issue. Front yard coverage is
21% (maximum allowed is 30%).
Setback requirements are met.
Landscaping: The minimum landscaping requirement, based on
building costs, is $13,780 which is not being met. The applicant
is seeking a credit for the $13,585 landscaping shortfall. The
plantings proposed include a cedar hedge along the easterly
boundary. This site is well screened from surrounding properties

so staff supports granting the landscaping credit.
Parking: There are no minimum parking standards for this type of
facility in the zoning regulations. Six (6) parking spaces are
being provided which staff feels is adequate given that the
facility will have only two (2) employees. The plan should be
revised to provide one (1) handicapped space.
Lighting: Proposed exterior lighting will consist of the
following:
--- two (2) building mounted 175 watt metal halide lights with
downcasting and shielded fixtures.
The note on the plan referring to "flood lights" should be changed
since the lights proposed are not flood lights.
Dumpster: No dumpster proposed.
5) G.B.I.C. - 6 LOT SUBDIVISION - FINAL PLAT
This project consists of the subdivision of a 175 acre parcel into
six (6) lots ranging in size from 4.0 acres to 146.66 acres. Lot
#6 is developed with the former Digital plant. The preliminary
plat was approved on 1/10/95 (minutes enclosed).
Access: Access to lots #1, #4 and #5 will be via access easements
over the existing Digital access road. Access to lots #2 and #3
will be via a shared access on Kimball Avenue located across from
Shunpike Road. Metes and bounds information for these easements
should be provided on the subdivision plat. This complies with
preliminary plat condition #5a.
Lot size/frontage: The minimum lot size requirement of 40,000
square feet (0.92 acres) will be met. The minimum frontage
requirement of 200 feet will be met for lots 1-4 and lot 6. Lot 5
will have no frontage on a public road.
Lot #6 is proposed to have 1,250 feet of frontage along Kimball
Avenue, approximately 700 feet of frontage west of lot #1 and 550
feet east of lot #4.
Coverage/setbacks (lot #6): Building coverage is 4.2% (maximum
allowed is 30%). Overall coverage is 13.7% (maximum allowed is

The City approves your request to install a trailer at the above
referenced site as described in your letter dated 5/24/95 and as
shown on the attached site plan. The trailer will fit within the
approved building footprint and therefore is in accordance with the
intent of the Planning Commission's site plan approval. Similarly,
Zoning Administrator, Richard Ward, has indicated that the proposed
change complies with the Zoning Board of Adjustment's approval of
this project.

RE: Bartlett Bay Living Machine - Proposed Office/Lab Trailer
Dear Joe,
I am enclosing sketches of the proposed change to the Living Machine at Bartlett
Bay which I spoke to you about yesterday. The proposed trailer will be similar to a
construction trailer and will have a skirt around the bottom. It's height will be 1P-
6". This will be offset from the greenhouse structure 4 or 5 feet. As you will note
the footprint of the trailer is 390 sf. This trailer will replace a 500 sf wood frame
structure that was attached to the backside of the greenhouse (see the previous
building foot print note on the sketch). We will also be eliminating the
blower/storage shed on the north side of the building. This will reduce the lot
coverage by 350 sf.
As I mentioned yesterday, I spoke with Don Whitten about this and he had no
problem with it. Based on the tentative nature of operational funding beyond the
next two years, this alternative of a leased unit is the most economical way to
achieve an office and lab area for our operators.
Please let me know if I will need to go before the Planning and Zoning Boards or if
your approval is adequate for this minor change.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Sincerely,

Grand Opening -- With Senator Patrick Leahy
LIving Machine Sewage Treatment System
South Burlington, Vermont
jul y 1 y 1996 9z-45 - 1 Q:45 ant.
Dear Interested Vermonters:
On JtOy 1, 1996 at 9:45 am Senator Patrick. Leahy will open the "Living Machine:
Sevv't,g, tYeatrICDt cs-Stem in Smith Bvri:ngton, Vermont.
TlIiS ilinov"tive waste treatment system•, was designed and constructed by Living
Tec li o c)gses of Burlington and was funded by a demonstration grant from the
EPA and the Massachusetts Foundation for Excellence. Senator Leahy led the
effort to hiclude funding in then EPA appropriation for this research and the City
of South Burlington was instrumental in bringing the project to fruition. Today,
Living Teclnologies is designing and constructing ecological waste treatment
systems for such companies as M&M Mars, Masterfoods, the 13,-�dy Shop, Ethel
M.'47-1-i :colat'-s and the National Atidubon SocietY. The conipany has 15
employees.
The Living Machine installed in South Burlington uses the natural processes
found in estuaries, marshes and ponds, to treat 80,000 gallons of sewage per day.
With the help of sunlight and a managed environment, thousands of species
incluZg bacteria; micro-organisms, plants, snails, fish, etc ... break down and
digest organic waste.
At the opening, Dr. John Todd, the originator of the technology, will receive an
Environmental Merit Award from the United State Environmental Protection
Agency. The EPA Regional Administrator John DeVillars will present the
award.
Please came to the opening, tour the "Living Machine", and hear brief remarks
by Senator Leahy, John DeVillars and Dr. John Todd.
Will Raap, Chairman of Living Technologies and President of Gardener's Supply
Co. will chair the opening. We look forward to seeing you. There is no need to
RSVP. Please call 865-4460 if you have any questions.
LIVING MACHINE CASE STUDY
..............................
Municipal Sewage Treatment in
South Burlington, Vermont
Background: Built in late 1995, the South Burlington Living Machine was ramped
UP to full design flow by April 1996. Water chemistry data from an EPA certified,
independent laboratory demonstrates the excellent early performance of the treatment
system through winter months.
The Waste: This Living Machine treats 80,000 gpd of municipal sewage, an amount
typically generated by approximately 1,600 residential users. Average treatment
performance for January 1996 through April 1996 is:
Parameters IN (avg)
Total Suspended Solids 1,900 mg/L
Chemical Oxygen Demand 432 mg/L
Biochemical Oxygen Demand 219 mg/L
Total Suspended Solids 174 mg/L
Total Nitrogen 26 mg/L
Total KjehldahL Nitrogen 25 mg/L
Ammonia 13 mg/L
Fecal Coliform (col/100 mL) 3,960,000
Total Coliform (col/100 mL) 16,916,000
OUT (avg)
5-10 mg/L
36 mg/L
10 mg/l
3 mg/L
14 mg/L
1.5 mg/l
0.4 mg/L

459
The Process: Sewage flows to a greenhouse housing two treatment trains, each with five
aerobic reactors, a clarifier and three Ecological Fluidized Beds. The open aerobic
reactors have diaphragm aerators and are planted with a variety of aquatic plant species
in floating plant racks. BOD and TSS are reduced and ammonia nitrified in this stage of
treatment. A clarifier follows the open aerobic reactors to settle solids.
Ecological Fluidized Beds in each train follow the clarifier for final polishing.
The beds operate aerobically for BOD and COD polishing, nitrification, and suspended
solids digestion. Anoxic denitrification with carbon addition is carried out in the
second EFB in each train.
The Benefits: Solids are digested in the Living Machine treatment process to a much
greater level than conventional treatment, leaving about half the amount of sludge at the
end of the process. The design and construction cost for this system was $640,000, which
included an additional test line for EPA funded research, a complete laboratory and a
footprint large enough to accomodate tours and classroom space.

29 V.S.A. Chapter 11
RE: City of South Burlington
575 Dorset Street
South Burlington VT 05403
Application No. 97-33, Lake Champlain, South Burlington
Project: Install an Outfall Pipe and Diffuser Section for the Bartlett Bay Municipal
Wastewater Treatment Plant
Project Identification Number EJ95-0299
On October 3, 1997, an application was received by the Department of Environmental
Conservation (Department) from the City of South Burlington (applicant) under the provisions of
29 V.S.A. Chapter 11, "Management of Lakes and Ponds," for authorization to install a new
outfall pipe and diffuser section in the public waters of Lake Champlain, South Burlington,
Vermont. The outfall pipe and diffuser section is for the Bartlett Bay municipal wastewater
treatment plant, which is being upgraded to meet current and future wastewater treatment demands.
The plant operates under a Department issued wastewater discharge permit, which is a part of the
National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES). The wastewater discharge permit
program is administered by the Wastewater Management Division of the Department, under the
provisions of 10 V.S.A. Chapter 47.
Additional information regarding the Management of Lakes and Ponds permit application was
requested on October 8, 1997, and received by the Department on October 16, 1997.
On October 27, 1997, state and local officials, abutting property owners, and others having an
interest in this matter were notified of this application and given the opportunity to file written
comments or request a public information meeting.
Having received no requests for a public information meeting within the comment period provided,
the Department reviewed the documents entered into the record of this proceeding and found that
sufficient information exists with which to determine whether this project will be consistent with the
public trust doctrine and whether the project will adversely affect the public good as provided in 29
V.S.A. Section 405(b). The Department has developed Interim Procedures to aid in the review of
applications for conformance with 29 V.S.A. Chapter 11. Section 3 of these procedures, "Public
Trust Determination," was invalidated as exceeding the Department's rulemaking authority in In
Re- Richard and Alice. Angney (Lamoille County Superior Court, Docket No. S96-91, 9/04/92).
Therefore, the Department has relied on guidance provided by case law to make a decision
regarding the proposed project's consistency with the public trust doctrine.
97-33
Page 2
1. Lake Champlain, South Burlington, Vermont is "public waters" of the State of Vermont.
The project encroaches beyond the shoreline as delineated by the mean water level of Lake
Champlain, 95.5 feet National Geodetic Vertical Datum (NGVD). Therefore, the
Department has jurisdiction under 29 V.S.A. Chapter 11.
2. Project Descriptiinn: The proposed project consists of the installation of a new outfall pipe
and diffuser section for the City of South Burlington's Bartlett Bay wastewater treatment
plant. The new outfall pipe and diffuser section will be made of high density polyethylene
and have eighteen (18) inch interior and twenty (20) inch exterior diameters. The outfall
pipe will extend 605 feet from the mean water level. The diffuser section will be attached
at the lakeward end and extend an additional 101 feet into the lake. The diffuser section
will have four (4) equally spaced eight (8) inch interior diameter ports. The ports will be
angled up at thirty (30) degrees from the centerline of the diffuser section and point in the
direction of flow. The end of the diffuser section will be closed.
The outfall pipe will be buried in a trench for the first 243 feet beyond the shoreline
delineated by the mean water level. The remainder of the pipe and the diffuser section will
be laid on the lake bottom and held in place with precast concrete anchors, which will be
placed approximately every fifteen (15) feet for a total of forty-seven (47) anchors.
Burying only a portion of the outfall pipe will minimize the disturbance of lake bottom.
The excavated trench will be approximately three (3) feet wide and seven (7) feet deep at
the shoreline. The depth of the trench will vary, and transition to the lake bottom, or zero
(0), at a point approximately 243 feet from the shoreline, at elevation 90.0 feet NGVD.
Geotechnical exploration of the outfall route showed the bottom material to be mostly fine
sand. Therefore, no granular bedding material is proposed to be placed in the trench
bottom. The trench will be backfilled and covered with the excavated native material,
which will result in a slight mound along the trench line. This mound will settle and
dissipate over time. A floating silt curtain, extending to the lake bottom, will be installed in
the lake around the trench area to contain turbidity during construction. Any ballast
material used to secure the curtain to the lake bottom will be required to be removed as a
condition of this permit.
The existing wastewater discharge pipe is not proposed to be removed from the lake. This
will minimize disturbance of lake bottom materials and ease the transition from the existing
outfall to the new outfall and diffuser section.
The overall upgrade project also includes the placement of riprap along the shoreline above
the mean water level of the lake to stabilize the banks of Bartlett Brook and a portion of the
lake's shoreline. This will control erosion and the discharge of sediments to the lake.
3. Project Purpose: The Bartlett Bay municipal wastewater treatment plant is currently
operating such that it meets its discharge permit limitations, but with difficulty.
Improvements to the wastewater treatment plant are necessary, even without increasing the
treatment and discharge capacity of the treatment plant. The diffusion study titled, "Phase
II, Diffuser Design and Mixing Zone Study, August 1997, " prepared by Binkerd
97-33
Page 3
Environmental, concluded that the existing single port diffuser on the existing outfall pipe
would not adequately disperse and dilute the increased volume of effluent discharged from
the upgraded treatment plant within the currently designated waste management zone. The
increased flow velocity resulting from increased flow volume through the existing outfall
would cause the effluent to be transported beyond the currently designated waste
management zone before it was sufficiently diluted to meet the Vermont Water Quality
Standards. The study stated that the proposed multiport diffuser would effectively dilute the
plant effluent within the currently designated waste management zone to meet the Vermont
Water Quality Standards. The wastewater treatment needs of the current population, as
well as the needs of increasing residential and commercial development in South
Burlington, require the upgrade of the wastewater treatment facility. The planned upgrade
will meet the future demands on the treatment facility with a twenty (20) year design life.
Concerns were raised regarding zebra mussels becoming established on the diffuser section
and interfering with the flow of effluent. The wastewater treatment plant will not be using
chlorine for disinfection of the effluent, so there will not be the residual concentration that
exists in other effluents. Chlorine is known to discourage zebra mussels from establishing.
The applicant, as a condition of this permit, will be required to periodically inspect the
diffuser section to ensure that the diffuser section is functioning correctly.
4. Public Purpose/Public Benefit: The Bartlett Bay municipal wastewater treatment plant is
currently operating such that it meets its discharge permit limitations, but with difficulty.
Improvements to the wastewater treatment plant are necessary, even without increasing the
treatment and discharge capacity of the treatment plant. The upgrade of the existing outfall
will provide improved dispersion and dilution of effluent from the facility within the
currently designated waste management zone. The proposed diffuser section will enable an
increased amount of treated effluent to be discharged while meeting the Vermont Water
Quality Standards, thereby, increasing the amount of wastewater that can be treated and
discharged daily, without the need for a larger waste management zone. Development
currently occurring in South Burlington includes residential housing as well as service
oriented businesses open to the public, such as restaurants, hotels, and stores. The
Department finds that the proposed project will create a public benefit by providing a basic
service, wastewater treatment, to an increased population without increasing the currently
designated waste management zone.
�"3Ms m 0 6 .ii
A. Excessiveness for Stated Purpose The outfall pipe and diffuser section is the
minimum necessary for the discharge to meet the Vermont Water Quality Standards,
with the twenty (20) year design needs of the treatment plant upgrade, without
changing the currently designated waste management zone. Use of the multiport
diffuser will discharge the effluent such that it can be diluted to meet the Vermont
Water Quality Standards within the currently designated waste management zone.
B. Less Intrusive Feasible Alternativese. No less intrusive feasible alternative has been
identified that will meet the design year discharge needs. Using the existing outfall
pipe would require increasing the size of the designated waste management zone,
which would impact uses. Extending the outfall pipe to deeper water for sufficient
97-33
Page 4
dilution could result in the same size waste management zone, but in a new location
which would impact uses and would impact more lake bottom due to the increased
length of the outfall pipe.
C. Measures to Reduce Impacts- A silt curtain extending to the lake bottom will be
installed around the trench area to contain turbidity during construction. The outfall
pipe will be buried to elevation 90.0 feet NGVD and anchored to the bottom for the
remaining length, limiting the disturbance of bottom materials. Only precast
concrete anchors will be used to secure the outfall and diffuser structure. The
existing outfall pipe will also be left in the lake to minimize impacts to bottom
materials. The City of Burlington will be operating under the conditions and
limitations of the Department's wastewater discharge permit during the construction
of, and transition to, the upgraded system.
D. Placement of Fill: No granular bedding material is proposed to be placed in the
trench bottom. The trench will be backfilled and covered with the excavated native
material. Riprap will be placed along the shoreline above elevation 95.5 feet
NGVD, the mean water level of the lake, to stabilize the banks of Bartlett Brook
and a portion of the lake's shoreline.
6. Effects on Water Q uaL litT A silt curtain extending to the lake bottom will be installed
around the trench area to contain turbidity during excavation and backfilling. Effluent
discharged through the outfall pipe and diffuser section, in conformance with a Department
issued wastewater discharge permit, will meet the Vermont Water Quality Standards in the
currently designated waste management zone. There will be no increase in phosphorus
loading to Lake Champlain as a result of this project. The overall upgrade project also
includes the placement of riprap along the shoreline above the mean water level of the lake
to stabilize the banks of Bartlett Brook and a portion of the lake's shoreline. This will
control erosion and the discharge of sediments to the lake. No short or long term water
quality problems should result from the construction or operation of the proposed project.
7. Effects on Fish and Wildlife Habitat: There will be disturbances of bottom materials during
the construction period, but the bottom contours will be restored once the project is
completed and settling has occurred. Over time, vegetation will reestablish over the trench
and other disturbed areas. There was no information received from noticed parties,
including state fish and wildlife biologists, and others to indicate that the project would have
an adverse impact on fish and wildlife habitat.
8. Effects on Aquatic and Shoreline Vegetation- The lake bottom and shoreline disturbed due
to construction will be restored to existing contours once the project is complete and settling
has occurred. The area disturbed by construction will revegetate over time. There should
be no long term adverse impacts to aquatic and shoreline vegetation due to the project.
9. Effects on Navigation and Other Recreational and Pnhlic TTcec Tnchidina Pichina and
Swi ming_- During construction, navigation and boating will be impeded in the work area
Once construction is completed, the outfall pipe and diffuser section should have sufficient
water cover to not impact navigation, boating or fishing. This project will not change any
existing impacts to swimming that may be caused by the currently designated waste
J
97-33
Page 5
management zone. The completed project, when operated in conformance with a
Department issued wastewater discharge permit, will meet the Vermont Water Quality
Standards in the currently designated waste management zone. There should be no long
term impacts on public uses from the construction or operation of the proposed project.
10. Consistency with the Natural Surrounding The outfall pipe will be buried for more than a
third of its length. The rest of the pipe and the diffuser will lay on the lake bottom. The
new outfall pipe and diffuser section will be located next to the existing outfall pipe. The
proposed project should not adversely impact the natural surroundings.
11. Consistency with Municipal Shoreland Zoning Ordinances and Applicable State Plans- No
adverse comments were received during the comment period from local and state offices
and the project is thus considered to be consistent with applicable state plans. As a
governmental project, the construction of the project by the applicant is not subject to any
restrictions under its municipal shoreland zoning ordinance. Kedroff v. Town of
Springfield (1969) 127 Vt. 624. The proposed project will be consistent with the
phosphorus reduction plan in the "Opportunities for Action: An Evolving Plan for the
Future of the Lake Champlain Basin, " the bi-state plan developed for the basin, as the
amount of phosphorus discharged from the treatment plant will not be increased.
12. Cumulative Impact The shoreline portion of the pipe will be buried with the remainder of
the pipe and the diffuser section resting on the bottom. The overall project also involves
stabilization of the banks of Bartlett Brook and lake shoreline. The project should have a
minimal visual cumulative impact. The installation of the new outfall pipe and diffuser
section will enable the wastewater treatment plant to increase the amount of treated effluent
it discharges. However, the Vermont Water Quality Standards will be met, without
requiring changes to the currently designated waste management zone. The amount of
phosphorus discharged from the wastewater treatment plant will not be increased over
existing amounts. ,Based on the information available, the Department finds the cumulative
impact of the proposed project is not adverse to the public good.
Based upon the foregoing findings, it is the decision of the Department that the project described
herein, as set forth in the above findings and in the plans and filings on file with the Department,
complies with the criteria of 29 V.S.A. Section 405, and is consistent with the Public Trust
Doctrine.
In accordance with 29 V.S.A. Sections 403 and 408, permission is hereby granted to the City of
South Burlington, hereinafter called "permittee," to carry out the project in accordance with the
following conditions:
1. The project shall be carried out in strict accordance with the application received October 3,

time in accordance with the Interim Procedures for the Issuance or Denial of Encroachment
Permits dated October 6, 1989 (excepting Section 3), or subsequent authority.

and paving and it will be very easy to widen the access to 20 ft.

ire approval by the
Ms. Barone seconded. The motion was then gassed unaninmously_.
4. Sketch Plan application of Francis Von Turkovich and Patrice
Stratmann to subdivide a 9.7 acre parcel into three lots of 4
acres (lot 1), 1 acre (lot 2) and 4.7 acres (lot 3), 300 Swift
Street:
Ms. Stratmann said they have changed the plan and have a contract
with UVM to purchase lot #1. She showed the possible location of
a new driveway which would be put in if the neighbor moves. She
also showed the right-of-way for UVM access to lot #1 which is
now used. UVM is farming the land and the right-of-way is only
for farm equipment.
Mr. Weith suggested reserving a right-of-way for future access to
lot #1. Mr. Burgess said the applicant will have to pick a time
when the new access will be used. Mr. Weith suggested it be
built prior to issuance of a zoning permit for lot #1. If it is
built before then, UVM equipment should also use it.
Mr. Burgess asked if the Gardners have a legal right-of-way to
access their lot. Ms. Stratmann did not know. Mr. Teeson felt
it might help to have the Gardner lot labelled so sale of it or
of lot 3 or development of lot #3 might trigger using the new
right-of-way. Mr. Teeson said he had no trouble with the right-
of-way as long as its use is brought about by a specific event.
Mr. Burgess noted that the 2 curb cuts will now be closer
together. Mr. Weith said that is offset by better visibility.
Ms. Stratmann questioned the size of the new right-of-way to
serve lots 1 & 4. Mr. Weith said the standard is 24 ft, but the
last time the Commission approved a preliminary plat they said a
20 ft. road was OK within a 40 foot right-of-way. He felt a 20
ft. road within a 30 ft. right-of-way would be OK. Ms. Stratmann
asked if it could be a 10 ft. road. Mr. Weith said 10 ft. was
OK until it serves more than 2 housing units.
Members raised no further issues but Mr. Burgess reminded the
applicant that they will have to have all details worked out when
they come in for approval.
5. Site plan application of Goldfield Construction Management to
amend a previously approved plan for a 26,000 sq. ft. building
for equipment rental/light manufacturing use. The amendment con-
sists of 1) increasing the size of the internal office space from
2605 sq. ft. to 4605 sq. ft., 2) reducing the width of a curb
