Environmental faculty at the college, who<br \/>\nhad for years used the vernal pool as an instructional site<br \/>\nfor students, supported the project, although they did<br \/>\nremind college administrators of environmental safeguards<br \/>\nthat would need to be implemented during<br \/>\nconstruction.The base map is available at a<br \/>\nCommonwealth of Massachusetts web site (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.state.ma.us\/mgis\/\" target=\"_blank\">MassGIS<\/a>).<br \/>\nThis photo was taken before any of the newly proposed work<br \/>\nwas done on the fields. <\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<table border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"4\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td align=\"center\" width=\"20%\"><a href=\"bcc-1\/\">Previous<\/a><\/td>\n<td align=\"center\" width=\"80%\"><a href=\"bcc-soccer-fields\/\">1<\/a> 2 <a href=\"bcc-3\/\">3<\/a> <a href=\"bcc-4\/\">4<\/a> <a href=\"bcc-5\/\">5<\/a> <a href=\"bcc-6\/\">6<\/a> <a href=\"bcc-7\/\">7<\/a> <a href=\"bcc-8\/\">8<\/a> <a href=\"bcc-9\/\">9<\/a> <a href=\"bcc-10\/\">10<\/a> <a href=\"bcc-11\/\">11<\/a> <a href=\"bcc-12\/\">12<\/a> <a href=\"bcc-13\/\">13<\/a> <a href=\"bcc-14\/\">14<\/a> <a href=\"bcc-15\/\">15<\/a> <a href=\"bcc-16\/\">16<\/a> <a href=\"bcc-17\/\">17<\/a> <a href=\"bcc-18\/\">18<\/a> <a href=\"bcc-19\/\">19<\/a><\/td>\n<td align=\"center\" width=\"20%\"><a href=\"bcc-3\/\">Next<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 Next &nbsp;
