RICHMOND — The state has agreed to repair damage and remove debris left in the wake of a botched woodland trail project on Lenox Mountain last summer. After an eight-month standoff on the matter, a representative of the Department of Conservation and Recreation said it will submit a restoration plan for review by the town’s Conservation Commission. Senior ecologist Nancy Putnam attended a remote meeting Tuesday — the DCR had rebuffed previous invitations to join the committee — to describe the proposed work to be done in collaboration with Mass Audubon. Portions of the land conservation organization’s forested land had been disturbed during last year’s state project to update utility connections and replace power lines with an underground cable to a communications tower on the summit. Two residential properties were affected, and a wide gravel road was constructed by the state along its right of way, eliminating a popular hiking trail.
