EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Lebanon NH-VT Micropolitan Statistical Area is a geo-demographic area. Responses to Census 2000 questions by the residents of New Hampshire and Vermont defined its boundaries. After analysis of those responses, the U.S. Office of Management and Budget (OMB) selected the towns that showed the greatest social and economic interdependence to define the extent of The Lebanon NH-VT Micropolitan Statistical Area. The OMB uses a Micropolitan Statistical Area to present local and regional data so that it reflects the actual behaviors of its residents. The Lebanon NH-VT Micropolitan Statistical Area is an economically integrated region of 25 contiguous towns that spans four counties in two states.

  • Chapter 2: Regional Context
    CHAPTER 2: REGIONAL CONTEXT 1. INTRODUCTION The idea of belonging to a region is nothing new to Hanover and its neighboring municipalities. There is a tradition of thought, activities and inter-municipal cooperation that extends across town, county and state boundaries. Since the Region provides a common background, each town has a stake in keeping the Upper Valley region a desirable place in which to live and work. Hanover and its neighbors cannot afford to look only as far as town lines. Because the population and/or tax base in many towns are small, cooperative efforts are necessary to cut costs for services and, in some cases, essential for the service even to be provided. Individual communities each play a distinctive role in the growth of the Region. As the Town looks ahead to the next decade, it is important to understand Hanover's identity and role in this broader context. While other chapters of this master plan emphasize Hanover and its resources, and goals and policies, this chapter will highlight Hanover's significance from the perspectives of the immediate Upper Valley and broader region. Then, specific issues the Town will need to consider from a regional point of view in the near future will be addressed. 2. A SENSE OF THE PLACE Hanover, a small New England college community, is the cultural anchor of the Upper Valley. With its highly regarded quality of life, Hanover is home to Dartmouth College and its museums, theatrical and musical productions, lectures and sports events, attractions for residents, alumni and visitors. The town’s business and office/laboratory districts maintain a strong and vibrant economic base.

  • Timber As a Bridge Material
    TIMBER AS A BRIDGE MATERIAL 1.1 INTRODUCTION The age of wood spans human history. The stone, iron, and bronze ages were dramatic interims in human progress, but wood-a renewable re- source-has always been at hand. As a building material, wood is abun­ dant, versatile, and easily obtainable. Without it, civilization as we know it would have been impossible. One-third of the area of the United States is forest land. If scientifically managed and protected from natural disasters caused by fire, insects, and disease, forests will last forever. As older trees are harvested, they are replaced by young trees to replenish the wood supply for future generations. The cycle of regeneration, or sustained yield, can equal or surpass the volume being harvested. Wood was probably the first material used by humans to construct a bridge. Although in the 20th century concrete and steel replaced wood as the major materials for bridge construction, wood is still widely used for short- and medium-span bridges. Of the bridges in the United States with spans longer than 20 feet, approximately 12 percent of them, or 71,200 bridges, are made of timber. In the USDA Forest Service alone, approxi­ mately 7,500 timber bridges are in use, and more are built each year. The railroads have more than 1,500 miles of timber bridges and trestles in service. In addition, timber bridges recently have attracted the attention of international organizations and foreign countries, including the United Nations, Canada, England, Japan, and Australia. Timber’s strength, light weight, and energy-absorbing properties furnish features desirable for bridge construction.

  • Hazen Trail Wilder & Norwich, VT Trail Map
    Hazen Trail Wilder & Norwich, VT Trail Map Uses: hiking, snowshoeing, and skiing Description: The Hazen Trail provides a great escape within close proximity to the largest population center in the Upper Valley. Connecting Norwich and Wilder, Vermont, the 1.5 mile trail traverses forest and farmland along the Connecticut River and connects with the Montshire Museum Ridge Trail. Its natural communities, cultural landscapes, and unique geological formations make for a fascinating and enjoyable hike. The trail corridor also provides a special ecological haven for wildlife that may otherwise be threatened by the development of the ever burgeoning Hanover area. To the south of the Montshire Museum property, the Hazen Trail runs through two properties conserved with the Upper Valley Land Trust. The 174-acre Brookside Farm was conserved in 1992, with funding from the Vermont Housing and Conservation Board. The trail is named Hazen in honor of the family who has owned the farm continuously for over two centuries. In 1998, the 21-acre Agri-Mark property at the southern end of the trail was also conserved, thanks to funding from the Vermont Housing and Conservation Board and the Vermont Watershed Grant Program. This area is now called the Maanawaka Conservation Area and is managed by the Hartford Conservation Commission. Photo 1: Brookside Farm hayfield along the Hazen Trail Directions: To start from the Montshire Museum, go up the hill from Ledyard Bridge and turn left onto Montshire Road before you reach the highway. Park along the side of the road and walk down the museum driveway to the Ridge Trail (right), which leads to the Hazen Trail (If you are visiting the museum and have purchased an admission sticker, you may use their parking area).

  • Annual Reports of the Town of Hanover, New Hampshire for The
    COVER COLLAGE OF DRAWINGS BY BERNICE A. RAY SCHOOL FIRST GRADERS First grade students from the Ray School spent January visiting the dif- ferent Town departments. When they returned to school, they drew their perceptions of their visit and dictated a line or two about what they had learned to their teacher. The children's statements appear unedited. This Town Report cover reflects a first grader's understanding of the Town's work. The cover is a collage of many children's drawings. Many thanks are extended to the first grade teachers, Mrs. Derrick, Mrs. Demont, and Miss Hayes for their flexibility in scheduling and support of the project. Special thanks go to Selectman Willie Black for coor- dinating the project with Dartmouth College interns, Peter Donat and Clare Killeen.

Clarke Company, 1906) Existing bridges are identified by New Hampshire Department of Transportation bridge coordinates, as “042/044.” [Bridges described in italics had disappeared by 1906.] 1. Hinsdale to Brattleboro, Vermont. The first bridge was built in 1804 by the Hinsdale Bridge and Sixth New Hampshire Turnpike Corporation, chartered in 1802. Frederick J. Wood in his The Turnpikes of New England (1919) says that this company “appears to have been primarily a toll-bridge corporation, although it had authority to build about ten miles of turnpike through Hinsdale and Winchester to connect with a branch of the Fifth Massachusetts [Turnpike] which was built to the state line prior to 1806.” The Hinsdale Bridge was apparently replaced several times. Hinsdale, New Hampshire (Hinsdale, N.H.: Bicentennial Committee [1976]) says that bridges here have “been carried away, by floods and ice, on the average of once in every ten years.” The corporate name was shortened to “Hinsdale Bridge Corporation” in 1853, probably reflecting the relinquishment of any turnpike road the corporation had built.

    1761–1804 1761 On July 4, Benning Wentworth, Royal Governor of New Hamp- shire, signs the charter, which establishes the 25,365 acre “Town- ship of Norwhich” in the Province of New Hampshire. 1765 The families of Nathan Messenger and Samuel Hutchinson are the first to winter in town in a log hut by the Ledyard Bridge. 1766 The first sawmill is built on Blood Brook by Jacob Burton, near the Elm Street bridge. 1767 Lydia Hutchinson is the first baby born in Norwich on October 6 to John and ‘Polly’ Wilson Hutchinson. 1768 The first town meeting is held in Norwich in Joseph Hatch’s cabin, near the site of the house he built in 1773 at 236 Main Street. Hatch is one of the first settlers on the Plain. 1769 Eleazar Wheelock, a Congregational minister from Con- necticut, establishes Dartmouth College in Hanover with the mission “to educate Native students, English youth and others.” Norwich residents contribute land, money and building materials. 1770 The first ferry between Hanover and Norwich is kept by John Sargent at the site of the Ledyard Bridge. Joseph Hatch and Oliver Babcock build the town’s first grist mill near the mouth of Blood Brook. 1771 The census reports a population of 206 people—40 fam- ilies—are living in Norwich. 1773 The site for a meeting house is chosen at the Center, known as Meeting House Hill, near the present intersection of Maple Hill and Union Village Road. Peter Olcott donates the land. Because of the Revolutionary War, it is not completed until 1784 at a cost of £694.

    Teague, Jamie <[email protected]> Marion Cross School Update, Church Street, Norwich, Vermont (Project No. 11647) Jeff Goodrich <[email protected]> Sun, Aug 18, 2019 at 3:12 PM To: "Jamie Teague ([email protected])" <[email protected]> Cc: "Tom Candon ([email protected])" <[email protected]>, "Tony Daigle ([email protected])" <[email protected]>, "Steve Revell ([email protected])" <[email protected]>, Sarah Finley <[email protected]>, Jeff Goodrich <[email protected]> Jamie, as we have discussed recently, we continue to refine our analysis of options and costs for the repair or replacement of the existing on- site wastewater disposal system (system) on behalf of the Norwich School District (District) in the “green” that serves Marion Cross School (MCS). Status Report The following paragraphs provide a brief summary of ongoing tasks to assist MCS with evaluating its existing system. 1. Hydrological Evaluation: Lincoln Applied Geology (LAG) has installed monitoring wells on the green to evaluate groundwater conditions. Installation of the wells occurred following graduation in June of this year. Monitoring is ongoing and may take time to yield meaningful results. 2. Test Pits: Tim McCormick, CSS, CWS, LD, observed test pits with Steve Revell, CPG, representing LAG on June 13. Tim recorded soil logs and concluded that the seasonal high water table (SHWT) proximate to the existing system appears to vary between 5.5 feet and 6 feet below ground surface based on soil conditions. 3. Option Assistance: We have continued to assist with evaluating project options that currently include a) repair or replacement of the existing system on the green, b) a municipal connection to Hartford, c) a municipal connection to Hanover, and, more recently, d) consideration of a system on Dresden Recreation Fields property on Route 5.
