Correcting Orders

Any person having an ownership interest in inland wetlands or flood plain areas affected by any Order adopted pursuant to M.G.L. c. 131, § 40A, and who has reason to believe that the wetland or flood plain boundary or encroachment line of his or her wetland or flood plain areas has been incorrectly delineated on the plan which has been included with an Order, may request the Department to have the location of his or her boundary or encroachment line redrawn on a corrected plan. Upon receipt of the request, a representative of the Department shall, within 15 days, arrange to conduct an on-site field inspection. If the Department finds that the boundary or encroachment line is incorrectly delineated, the Commissioner shall record, pursuant to the procedures provided in 310 CMR 13.09 and send to the person requesting the correction, a corrected plan with the new boundary or encroachment line delineated thereon. The Commissioner may also correct any typographical, grammatical or other errors contained in any Order by recording a copy of the corrected Order pursuant to the procedures provided in 310 CMR 13.09 and by sending a copy of the corrected Order to the assessed owner or person having an ownership interest in inland wetlands or flood plain areas affected by the Order.
