According to the site plan and the engineering report, the proposed project is not expected to have any impact on the environment. Engineering report stated that no work would be performed within jurisdictional areas of the Wetlands Protection Act. While a Gardner resident showed up at the last moments of the public hearing and voiced opposition, the Planning Board ignored his statements in favor of the objective data before it. The DPW Salt Shed Definitive Site Plan was approved unanimously. It is not known whether the Conservation Commission will even need to take up the matter.
