REGULAR MEETING OF THE ORONO COUNCIL, JUNE 29, 1978 Page 18 <br /> Thank you for your consideration and patience NORTH STAR MARINA <br /> in this matter. Please keep me advised of just (Continued) <br /> what DNR guidelines develop and we shall work <br /> with you as best we can. " <br /> Ronald Harnack, DNR, letter to Paul Kempf, - <br /> North Star P4arina owner, dated May 26, 1978, <br /> states: <br /> "As a result of a meeting on April 21, 1978, with <br /> representatives of Orono, LMCD, DNR, and North <br /> Star Marina, I have prepared this letter outlining <br /> the initial steps required to bring North Star <br /> into compliance. They are as follows: <br /> l. The first requirement will be to prepare <br /> a scaled plan of dock facilities in compliance <br /> with the 200' limit. The plan we received <br /> April 21 is unacceptable because the existing <br /> docks are shown e�tending beyond the 200 ' limit. <br /> We are looking for a layout which can be used <br /> as a basis for bringing the marina into final <br /> compliance. The layout should be prepared as <br /> quickly as possible, but no later than July 1, <br /> 1978. Previous discussions with you would <br /> indicate that you are close to co�pletion of <br /> such a plan. <br /> 2. The April 21 dock layout indicates 52 slips <br /> within the I,MCD dock use area. I believe a <br /> revised layout may be able to divide the 200 ' <br /> dock area more efficiently, so as to harbor <br /> additional boats. Additionally, the DNR <br /> promotes dry storage of watercraft to r.iinimize <br /> waterward encroachment of facilities. <br /> 3. The marina facilities must be in compliance <br /> with the "State Fire Code Pertaining to Marinas" . <br /> The fact that the existing facilities exceed <br /> the 200' limit does not preclude the need for <br /> compliance with the fire code. Therefore, <br /> the marina should be certified as complying <br /> with the fire extinguisher and fueling <br /> provisions immediately and the remainder will <br /> be dealt with in the development of the new <br /> facility plan. <br /> 4. Once a plan is prepared, we will develop, in <br /> consultation with yourself, LPQCD, and the City, <br /> a phasing into the new plan. Such should be <br /> accomplished in two years; however, shall not <br /> exceed five years, thereby dictating a 20$-50� <br /> cutback in dockage beyond 200 feet each year. <br /> (Continued) <br />
