What MassDEP has recorded
- RTN 4-0019682 — Norwell Cleaners, tier classified (active), status TIERII · MassDEP file
- RTN 4-0019682 — Norwell Cleaners, activity and use limitation, status TIERII, class PA, AUL recorded March 28, 2007 · MassDEP file
Within about 500 m (a third of a mile): 1 active tier-classified 21E site and 3 sites with an Activity and Use Limitation. All MassDEP sites in Norwell.
What this means
- The last deed was recorded for a nominal sum: a transfer between family members, into a trust or a similar non-market sale. It says nothing about the market value.
- An Activity and Use Limitation is a deed restriction: it limits how the land may be used (often no residential use or no digging) and passes to every buyer.
- A tier-classified site is a release still being cleaned up under the Massachusetts Contingency Plan; the MassDEP file shows the stage reached.
