We have received and reviewed the following materials submitted in conjunction with the referenced application:

B. General Comments

1. Environmental Considerations:

• a.The property is located within a Pinelands area of the Township. A Consistent Certificate of Filing was issued for this project on January 23, 2026, by the New Jersey Pinelands Commission which noted following conditions are to be met:
• All buildings shall be located at least 200 feet from the center line of all public paved roads.
• Each proposed dwelling must meet the current storm water management requirements of the municipal land use ordinance and the Pinelands Comprehensive Management Plan. These requirements include that the proposed stormwater management measures (e.g. drywells, small infiltration basins) must retain and infiltrate on the parcel the runoff generated from the total roof area of the proposed dwelling by a 10-year, 24-hour storm. A minimum separation of at least two feet is required between the elevation of the lowest point of infiltration in the stormwater management measures and the seasonal high-water table. The stormwater management measures must be sited in soils with a permeability rate between one and 20 inches per hour.
• Each proposed single-family dwelling shall utilize an alternate design wastewater system currently authorized by the Pinelands Comprehensive Management Plan for use on lots of at least 1.0, 1.26 or 1.4 acres.
• Each septic system shall be located where the seasonal high-water table is at least five feet below the natural ground surface.
• Based on available information, current Block 23108, Lot 14 is wooded. The above-mentioned plan does not depict the proposed development or limits of clearing/land disturbance on each of the proposed lots.
• The applicant should discuss his proposals for verification of compliance with these conditions.
• b.The property is a 4.95-acre wooded and vacant lot on Vath Street.
