The approvals allow several projects to proceed under conditions intended to protect wetlands, coastal areas, and stormwater systems. The commission required marsh restoration plantings for the bulkhead project and standard environmental conditions for the septic upgrade. A proposed seven-apartment rehabilitation of the old West Wareham School was also approved after the applicant confirmed there would be no wetland or buffer-zone impacts. Larger design and marina redevelopment questions remain under review.
