When will I receive the Order of Conditions for my project?

The Conservation Commission has 21 days to issue the Order of Conditions under state and local wetlands laws. Following the issuance date, a 10-business day appeal period ensues during which time an abutter, an aggrieved party, including the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MA DEP) can appeal the Conservation Commission’s decision. Appeals must be based on procedural matters or whether the Conservation Commission upheld the intent of the Massachusetts Wetlands Protection Act or the Amesbury Wetlands Protection Ordinance. No work on the site(s) may occur during the 10-day appeal period.
