Operations and Maintenance Manual — Cama Bow WOWS Franchisor Reaulred Cleaning Procedures and Cleaning Products Overview section One Outdoor Fencing. Pictures, and Requirements CBW requires our franchisees to install an outdoor fence that is no less than Eight Feet high in total height. To properly screen the outdoor yards, the franchisee must have privacy slats top to bottom. Previous circumstances have proven to our organization that dogs have the capability to either jump over or more so,jump up and scale a fence that has been 6 feet or lower. Proven experience dictates that for the safety of our animals and that 1 of the general public, this is the required fence height needed. If one of our dogs were to jump or scale the fence out of our outdoor play area, it could then become a public nuisance at best or be the cause of a critical accident on a nearby roadway. Adding to this situation is the 4" level of pea gravel used in our outdoor play yards. The dogs will generally push the gravel towards the back of the break yards and it would be easy to place a dog at risk for getting hurt and jumping out of our protected perimeter. To avoid this risk in addition to have the 8 foot fence height we do a full rake of each break yard on a weekly basis as part of our deep cleaning process. Section 2: Camu Bow Wow(D Cleaning and Maintenance Requirements Outdoor Break Area Cleaning Procedures Outdoor Break Areas/fencing • Spray outdoor play areas and privacy slats daily with solution comprised of Spartan Ecolyzer and water. • Use specific spray nozzle for this task. - - • Purchase the sprayer through the chemical distributor. - - • Use a brush to clean the privacy slats. Poop Patrol Constantly do Poop Patrol to prevent possible spread of disease. • Piles of poop are very noticeable on the web cameras. • Use sturdy compactor bags in your poop cans • Do not fill poop cans more then 3/4 full • Place poop cans so campers don't use them as a way to get out of you're fenced in play area. Pea Gravel Keep pea gravel raked evenly throughout the outdoor play area for the campers and the cameras: • As campers run around play area and equipment,the p gravel develops a moat like appearance. • The yard may develop many contours to it and build up against fencing making it "escapable." Storm Water and Pet Waste Training Every CBW Camp Counselor must go through our strict training program to become certified with the camp's policies and town requirements. The franchisee will be required to document this process for each new employee and it is part of our quarterly franchisor evaluation process. Pet Waste is an incredibly important factor to our concept as we have live web cameras on 24 hours a day and the dog's guardian's are paying a premium for our services,the up-most in cleanliness is mandatory for customer retention as well as being a responsible member of the community. 2 a Breakdown of Pet Waste Cleaning Duties Daily Duties • Clean up poop in outdoor play areas continually as it occurs and deposit in galvanized steel trash cans with secured lids and trash compactor bags. Clean up any messes in the indoor play areas and cabins as it occurs,deposit outside in steel trash cans: • Camp Counselor's dry mop and wet mop all aisles three times daily. • Deep clean with Spartan Ecolyzer any cabins that an Overnight Camper has checked out of for the day • Cots are flipped up in the back of the cabin and are swept out with a broom and then wet moped with Ecolyzer and water. • Lobby and office areas are dry mopped,edges vacuumed and wet mopped. Trash is taken out. Restioom is cleaned. • Empty poop cans twice daily at minimum and do not allow to become full past 3/4 full. Daily Camp waste equals the same amount of an average household of 4 humans. • All outdoor play areas are spayed down with Spartan Ecolyzer and water at the end of the day after boarding dogs are placed in cabins and day campers have been picked up for the day. • Indoor play areas are cleaned. Dry mopped,vacuumed around edges and wet mopped. Plastic slats in doors are cleaned. Rotate Campers between play areas to complete all indoor play areas: • Water bowls(LeBisbWs)are emptied and washed daily. Weekend and Holiday DeeD Cleaning Schedule(no day camp In addition to the daily cleaning conducted at the camp,these tasks are conducted on a weekly basis. Wee • Scrub all privacy slats in play areas. • Clean FRP in play area. • Scrub horizontal bars on all chain link gaffes. • Scrub all steel brackets mounted/bolted to floor. • Water plants. • Clean tops of cabins. Do this on your least occupied overnight camp day. • Clean all exterior windows. • Indoor Play Areas are cleaned with HDQ. (Usually on Sunday evenings.) • Rake pea gravel to insure smooth and even surface. Rake down pea gravel that accumulates against the fence. • Walk perimeter of camp to insure fencing is free of holes and pea gravel is not leaking out. • Wipe with rag all indoor hoses. (Dust collects on them) • Insure landscape is in looking its best and free of weeds. • Vacuum all cabins. uarterl • Re-seal concrete floor if necessary. Semi Annually • Dust all high areas.This includes rafters, hanging light fixtures, etc. • Smoke detectors are cleaned and inspected by the alarm company. 3 Section Three: Spartan Chemical Specifications and CBW Use Overview Camp Bow Wow®does not use bleach for daily or deep cleaning and only allows our franchisees to use our approved cleaning products from The Spartan Chemical Company,Inc. SOMMM The company's website is located at: hLtR://www.spartanchemical.com We utilize several different products,the specifications for each is below: CBW Specific Use of Spartan Cleaning Products-Overview 1. Consume Eco-Lyzer is used for the daily cleaning of the indoor and outdoor play areas this includes: floors,plastic curtains, privacy slats, steel fence,gates,collar tops, FRP, pea gravel, poop cans,and poop rakes/shovels. Consume Eov-Lyzer is also used for. • Deep cleaning all areas/surfaces of the Cabins and cots • Mopping the vinyl/title/concrete,floors in the lobby,.break area,food prep, bathing, bathrooms,'hallways,small dog lounge,interview rooms and hallways. • Cleaning of the Camper Cans. Mop Buckets: Dilution is a rate of two ounces of product per gallon of cold water. Thus if the mop buckets fire gallons use five ounces of product Spray Bottles: For the 32 ounce bottles the dilution rate is one ounce of product to cold water. This we can make a higher dilution because it is usually for spot cleaning only. Cleaning Buckets: Same rules apply two ounces per gallon. You must look to see what capacity your cleaning buckets are to do the proper dilution. The dogs should not walk on this wet and it should be fully dry before any dog walks on it. For heavily soiled areas you can increase the dilution rate to 2 ounces perga//on when using fhe Consume Eco-Lyzer, 2. HDQ HDQ is used for emergency spot cleaning such as vomit,diarrhea,and blood. The dogs should not walk on this wet and it should be fully dry before any dog walks on it. It is recommended to then mop the area with straight water and then let that dry. HDQ is an aggressive cleaner and is effective against the spread of canine cough. Because of its unique neutral pH, HDQ is safe to use around the dogs and will not cause"Hot Foot". Other uses for HDQ is. • Once a week use HDQ to mop out the play areas(this is on the cheddist) • Once a week use HDQ to spray down the yards. • If a dog gets sick in its cabin use HDQ then rinse with straight water. 5 F Mop Buckets: Dilution is a rate of one ounce of product per gallon of cold water. Thus if the mop buckets five gallons use five ounces of product. Spray Bottles: For the 32 ounce bottles the dilution rate is .5 ounce for the container. This we can make a higher dilution because it is usually for spot cleaning only. Cleaning Buckets: Same rules apply 1 ounce per gallon. You must look to see what capacity your cleaning buckets are to do the proper dilution. 3. Consume: This product is an effective product for eliminating orders. Consume sprayed on urine,feces,vomit or drain lines will quickly eat away and destroy all sources of order. This is a 16 ounces to one gallon ratio. Spray Bottles: For the 32 ounce bottles the dilution rate is 8 ounces of product to 32 ounces of water. This we can make a higher dilution because it is usually for spot cleaning only. Equipment Needed Foam Spray Gun It is recommended to purchase the foam spray gun for spraying the outside play areas daily. This is a commercial grade sprayer that works extremely well in providing the correct dilution. One Ounce Pump You will need to have the one ounce pumps to"pump"the chemicals out of the five gallon containers. These break often so purchase a minimum of one dozen. 6 f. grime Spartan Chemical Company, Inc.

The primary concern comes from the runoff caused during a rainstorm and the potential risk to the nearby waterway's ecosystem. As a result - of these important questions Camp Bow Wow and its supplier partner Spartan Chemical Company,Inc. conducted the following study. Environmental Impact Study of Camp Bow Wow's Outdoor Playgrounds Purpose: The purpose was to make sure that incidental runoff of water and nutrients and maintenance items from.the playground do not detrimentally impact the environment. We used San Diego County Region 9 Basin plan and Title 17 of the California Heath and Safety Code Storm Water Runoff Limits as the benchmark for allowable discharge limits. They are as follows: o pH=6.5 - 8.5 o Nitrogen as Nitrates<5mg/L o Un-ionized Ammonia<.025 mg/L o Total Phosphorus<.05 mg/L o Total Coliforms: 10,000 cfu/ 100ml o Fecal Coliforms:400 cfu/ 100 ml o Enterococcus: 104 cfu/ 100 ml Test Information: A. General Camp Bow Wow Playground Background Information: 1.Maximum of 1 dog per 20 ft2 of playground space. 2.Playground surface is pea gravel. 3.Minimum surface thickness 6 inches. 4.Maintenance procedures: a. Every Two hours pick-up and dispose of fecal matter. b. Lightly Spray(approximately Vi ounce)of properly diluted Consume Eco-Lyzer from pump up sprayer directly onto the surrounding gravel and trace fecal remnant. c. Lightly Spray(approximately%2 ounce)of properly diluted Consume Eco-Lyzer from pump up sprayer onto surface of the gravel where urine is present. d. Daily lightly spray entire playground perimeter. B.Additional Test Constraints: - - 1.For testing analysis we used a large breed dog(over 80 lbs)for urine and fecal samples. 5. Test conducted in Colorado,near Camp Bow Wow's corporate location utilizing fresh Gravel from a nearby quarry and local.water. 2.Ran tests listed below twice for each item listed above in the purpose section. a. Sample A. Run to establish the local preexisting conditions and the local baseline numbers prior to the introduction of Camp Bow Wow"nutrients"and cleaning materials. b. Sample B.Run to establish any impact on the environment by Camp Bow Wow as compared to Sample A the preexisting conditions. C. Test Tools: 1. 1 large breed dog to provide the urine and feces(fresh sample collected just prior to the test being run to eliminate stage fright). 2. 20 ft2 test area framed in and water tight with the exception of a small opening to collect the water sample. 3. 6 inches of pea gravel(size used for playground)to simulate play area. 4. 2 sets of sampling bottles: set A baseline set B test. 5. State of Colorado Water Testing labs for water analysis. 6. Supply of waxer. (add approximately 12 gallons of water per sample to simulate a 1 inch rain storm). D. Test Procedures: 1. Set up test area. 2. Contacted lab and picked up sample bottles and chain of custody 3. Morning of the test collected Urine and Fecal specimens from the large breed dog. 4. Traveled to test site. 5. Rinsed pea gravel thoroughly and allowed it to drain. 6. Added Approximately 12 gallons of water to test area to simulate a 1 inch rain storm. 7. Collected water samples into bottles marked Sample A. 8. Tested the pH of Sample A as per EPA guidelines requires pH tested within 15 minutes of sample collection. 9. Put remaining samples"on ice"per lab requirements. 10. After all water had drained introduced Feces and Urine to the Gravel 11.Allowed the specimens to contact the surface for approximately two hours. 12. Scooped the feces and spot sprayed the area with Consume Eco-Lyzer as Camp Bow Wow Cleaning Procedures Direct. 13.Introduced approximately 12 gallons of water. 14.Collected Samples(Set B) 15. Tested for pH 16. Put samples"on Ice"and transported immediately to the Laboratory Services Division,of the Colorado.Department of Public Health and Environment,a Colorado State agency located nearby in Denver,CO.

From A to B. All increases must be below limits shown in column two for a pass Findings: Camp Bow Wow facilities through the use of the proper procedures and tools(routine cleaning frequency and the use of Consume Eco-Lyzer),do not negatively impact the environment as evidenced by the lab results. Furthermore,because each sample B test result when compared to its corresponding the baseline sample A result showed a reduction in the"nutrient or toxin"load present,the procedures and tools Camp Bow Wow uses may actually improve preexisting conditions.Also as questions have from time to time arisen about the impact of the dye and fragrance in the Consume Eco-Lyzer it is important to note the following: • The inert non-staining proprietary ingredients in this product when used as directed in the Camp Bow Wow procedures above when calculated would measure approximately 2 parts per trillion in this test. This is well below any level of environmental impact that a dye would have such as blocking of sunlight or discoloration/clouding of the water. • The fragrance is also a biodegradable proprietary blend. When diluted and used as described the individual components that make up this fragrance calculate to less than 2 parts per trillion as well. Well below any discharge limits currently established. Note: supporting independent lab results available upon request.

We talked to a number of different departments/individuals in the State Health Department(department titles from notes and may not be exact department names)including the following: 1. Facility Licensure 1-860-509-7663 N, : 2. State Vet. 860-713-2505 3. Licensure 860-509-8378�' 4. Randall Nelson 860-509-7994— All of the departments either sent us to other departments or stated outright that the proposed use did not requirg a permit from the Health Department, and as such from the local Sanitarian_ • � �K.'�_Q_ t �k J._i=.!...� `^..I ! -V ` (id.C�i.'�x��i'i.., We do not concur with the assessment that waste from the facility will be a public nuisance. Camp Bow Wow has many facilities all over the country including a similar facility that was recently opened in Stamford Connecticut. Camp Bow Wow has formulated operations and maintenance : practices specifically to address any potential issues. Mr. De Vito references parts of the following sections of the Public Health Code under section 19-13-B1 Public Nuisances. (c) Barns or stables, hogpens, chicken yards or manure piles or a c, ions of organic material so maintained as to be a breeding place for flies. (d) The discharge or exposure of sewage, garbage or any other orqgUjq- h into or on any public place in such a way that transmission of infective material may result thereby. Under section c,we maintain that the organic material (feces)will not be maintained as to be a breeding place for flies. Under section d,we maintain that the organic material will not be transmitted into any public place. It will be confined to the restricted fenced in yard for the dogs, where it is collected for disposal. The Operations and Maintenance Manual (previously provided to the town),included periodic • poop patrol where the dog feces would be collected and deposited in receptacles that contained heavy duty compactor bags. These bags are certainly less likely to break open than the ordinary garbage bags containing food wastes that are routinely used by restaurants throughout the town. It : would seem that if the disposal of food waste is allowed in a dumpster,which would also be Jul 14 08 02:43p Design Professionals, Inc 860 291-8757 p.3 conducive for insect breeding,then the extra measures employed (heavy duty compactor bags) to be used by the applicant as part of this project should be acceptable. In response to the issue of the accumulations of organic matter within the pea gravel becoming a breeding place for flies,as part of the poop patrol,the feces is regularly cleaned up and deposited in heavy duty compactor bags. The outdoor areas are sprayed on a daily basis with Spartan Ecolyzer and water in the concentrations recommended by the manufacturer. In addition the areas where the feces are deposited are spot sprayed also. These measures will control any insect issues associated with the area. The Camp Bow Wow environmental impact test submitted previously substantiates this. • We do not support the recommendation to cover the facility, and put an impervious surface (pavement or concrete) and install drains and piping. The cost of the improvements would be prohibitively expensive(probably exceeding$50,000.00),without any environmental benefit. The layer of pea stone over an impervious surface would still require removal of the feces and disposal by bagging the feces. Cleaning the pea stone in order to try to flush the solids through the pea stone into the sewer system would require large amounts of water. Elimination of the pea stone would be unhealthy for the dogs to be on a hard impervious surface all day. The same benefits can be achieved with the pea stone over pervious material, and washing/maintaining the pea stone as directed in the Operations and Maintenance Manual. We would note that it is in the best interest of the owner of the facility to maintain a clean facility free of insect problems. Pet owners who are concerned enough to leave there beloved pet on a daily basis in a facility like this will be concerned with the cleanliness and operation of the facility. We would also note that as part of the operation of this facility, even though the facility is a�e--arian- e_ _ en "if at any time a public nuisance is created,then the wn' t would have the authority to step in and require immediate abatement of the nuisance just like at similar facilities throughout the town. �n�( U cf Please review the above. Our client is most anxious to move forward on this project, and would appreciate the earliest scheduling to appear before the Planning and Zoning Commission as can be accommodated.

Box 1167 South Windsor, CT 06074 Re: P&Z Application#08-36P, Camp Bow Wow Dear Ms. Isherwood: On July 7, 2008,this office received and reviewed the July 7, 2008,Narrative Statement which proposes the conversion of the existing building into a kennel which will be known as Camp Bow Wow, locate at 1145 John Fitch Boulevard, South Windsor, CT. The review resulted in concerns with the quote in the eighth paragraph of the statement, "We reviewed the project with representatives of the State Health Department, and have determined that the use is not regulated by the State Health Department". As you can see, the statement is very general and does not identify the section(s) or names within the State Health Department that were consulted. This department has concerns with the how the animal waste in the play area will be handled and does not agree with your interpretation or the interpretation of the State Health Department and requests names of individuals and departments you contacted to afford us the opportunity to discuss our concerns. This departments concern with the handling of the solid and liquid animal waste are that successful solid and liquid waste removal cannot be accomplished from the rough irregular gravel surface proposed for the play area which will result in waste accumulated in the gravel and the soil beneath it creating an environment for insect habitat. The proposal of collecting the solid waste and placing it in a dumpster will also present a likely habitat for insect breeding in that dumpsters do not have tight fitting lids and the slightest adulteration of.the trash liner will afford access for insect breeding. These concerns are governed in sections 19-13-B1(c) &(d), of the Public Health Code of the State of Connecticut. Section 19-13-B1(c) states in part that"or accumulations of organic matter so maintained to be a breeding place for flies". Section 19-13-131(d) states in part that"any other organic filth into or on any public place in such a way that transmission of infected material will result thereby". Having said that,the above mentioned issued were discussed in a meeting with your client and your representative and at that time it was explained that the towns sewage treatment plant would consider accepting the waste produced from this facility provided the play area had drains, an impervious layer the gravel could be placed on and a roof constructed over it. This construction would allow for proper maintenance of the play area and eliminate insect habitats. Unfortunately, until the above mentioned issued are resolved, this department cannot approve your application. If you would like to discuss this matter further, I can be reached at 860-644-2511, extension 248. Sincerely, Robert De Vito,R.S. Environmental Health Officer RECEIVED oils U97008 Narrative Statement Camp BOW Wow® SOUTH WIWDSOR PLANWNGO�G July 7,2008 South Windsor resident,Tami Sacra,is seeking to operate a nationally franchised facility, Camp Bow Wow®,offering premier canine daycare and overnight camp at 1145 John Fitch Boulevard. Camp Bow Wow®was developed to provide a fun,safe,and upscale environment for dogs to play,romp and receive lots of love and attention. This facility will provide all the services a dog owner could need,including grooming,day care, training and inside overnight boarding. There are two existing buildings located on the 2.05 ac.parcel,which was the former location of Mellen Marine.Ms. Sacra will be leasing approximately 8,000 sf of the currently unoccupied 15,000 sf(east building)located adjacent to John Fitch Boulevard. The facility will have the ability to accommodate a maximum of 150 dogs including day- care and overnight campers. Staffing requirements include two employees for the first 15 dogs,and an additional employee for each increment of 15 dogs. Employees are normally onsite 30 minutes prior to opening and 30 minutes after closing.Pick up and drop off will occur anytime during the normal hours of operation,7:00 am to 7:00 pm,Monday through Saturday. Operation on Sundays will be limited to 9:00 am to 11:00 am and 5:00 pm until 7:00 pm. The existing on-site parking lot has sufficient pavement to accommodate many vehicles. The applicant will stripe the existing pavement to provide 34 spaces total,including 2 reserved for handicap patrons.At a ratio of 1 parking space for every 250 sf of gross floor area,32 spaces would be required for the 8,000 sf lease area. The camp will offer climate controlled kennels"cabins"with raised cots for overnight boarders. There will also be areas for indoor play. The structured indoor play areas allow campers to access both indoor and outdoor break areas where they can socialize with other campers,under the supervision of employees.In addition,the camp will have a 33'x bb' exterior exercise area providing 3 separate play areas totaling approximately 2,170f sf. These areas are to be separated by chain link fencing. The perimeter of the outdoor exercise area will have a 8'high vinyl privacy fence.The Franchisor will not allow a facility to open without a minimum of 8 feet in total privacy fencing along the outside perimeter of the outside break area to ensure that no camper can scale the fence line and escape. While campers are allowed to spend time inside or out,an employee accompanies them at all times.In traditional kennels,many times dogs bark for attention because of lack of contact with humans and other dogs.At Camp Bow Wow®,the environment allows for socialization and eliminates dogs need to bark. In addition,fireproof sound absorption panels and/or hanging baffles can be used to reduce noise. D The Camp Bow Wow®waste removal routing includes constant play area patrol so that waste is picked up and deposited in a galvanized steel trash can with lid and liner. The liner is removed, sealed and deposited in the facility dumpster at minimum twice a day. The dumpster is picked-up twice per week.In the rare event a dumpster odor issue arises, a special enzymatic solution is sprayed in the dumpsters to eliminate the odor. The outdoor play areas are proposed in an area of existing pavement. Therefore,the applicant proposes to remove the pavement in these areas,and replace the surface with a 6 inch layer of pea-gravel.This is typical for the franchise,as they have performed tests in order to identify any potential effects of animal waste to the receiving environment for levels of pH,Enterococcus,total coliforms,fecal coliforms,E.Coli,nitrate, ammonia and phosphorus. In a report documenting the results of tests,performed by the State of Colorado Testing labs for water analysis,The final results came out favorable,and below acceptable levels. We have reviewed the permitting requirements for Camp Bow Wow®,and have determined that the project will require a permit from the South Windsor Planning and Zoning Commission for a special exception in the Industrial Zone,and a permit from the South Windsor WPCA. In addition,the project is regulated by the Department of Agriculture for a Kennel, Commercial License. We reviewed the project with representatives of the State Health Department,and have determined that the use is not regulated by the State Health Department. Ms. Sarra is excited to introduce her new business to South Windsor and to local residents. She also encourages anyone who would like to find out more about the franchise to visit their website(www.campbowwow.com).
