WAREHAM — Conservation Commission approves retaining wall replacement, continues six applications. The board unanimously approved a Request for Determination of Applicability for a 57-foot retaining wall replacement at 66 Blackmore Pond Road with conditions requiring erosion controls and hand labor, and continued six Notice of Intent applications involving a marina redevelopment, single-family dwelling, municipal shared-use path, stormwater upgrades, house reconstruction, and deck work.
