PROJECT NARRATIVE
for
CAMP OAKDALE
INSTALLATION OF SAND VOLLEYBALL COURTS
April 15, 2009
The subject project proposes the installation of two sand volleyball courts on the property
identified as Camp Oakdale Parcel 3, Town of Montville, Connecticut. The location of the
proposed sand volleyball courts will require access from Oxoboxo Brook Road and will be
located with some incursion into the 50-foot upland review area associated with the adjacent
wetland. In addition the project will require discharge of an underdrain within the wetland area.
The submitted plan shows the location of two sand volleyball courts with dimensions of 30’ x 60’
and safety zone of 10 feet around the court. It is planned to construct one court (the westerly
court closest to Oxoboxo Brook Road) at the present time. If use dictates, the plan allows for
construction of a second court.
The courts will be constructed with a crushed stone base / drainage layer incorporating a 4” PVC
underdrain and a sand surface. The regulated activities will primarily include the construction of
a portion of the courts and associated grading within the 50-foot upland review area and the
discharge of the underdrain within the adjacent wetlands.
The project will include no new impervious surfaces. High Density Polyethylene edging will be
incorporated around the court to retain the sand within the playing area. Sedimentation control
fence will be installed downgradient of the disturbed area during construction, and it is proposed
to install a split rail wood fence between the court areas and the wooded wetland area.
