Walden Planning Unit Resource Management Plan
Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation Bureau of Planning and Resource Protection Resource Management Planning Program RESOURCE MANAGEMENT PLAN Walden Planning Unit Including Walden Pond State Reservation May 2013 In coordination with: Crosby | Schlessinger | Smallridge, LLC Walden Planning Unit Including Walden Pond State Reservation RESOURCE MANAGEMENT PLAN 2013 Deval L. Patrick, Governor Timothy P. Murray, Lt. Governor Richard K. Sullivan, Jr., Secretary Edward M. Lambert, Jr., Commissioner John P. Murray, Deputy Commissioner for Park Operations Resource Management Plans (RMPs) provide guidelines for management of properties under the stewardship of the Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR). They are intended to be working documents for setting priorities, enabling the Department to adapt to changing fiscal, social, and environmental conditions. The planning process provides a forum for communication and cooperation with park visitors and the surrounding communities to ensure transparency in the DCR’s stewardship efforts. One of the most recognizable properties in the DCR park system, Walden Pond State Reservation is an iconic national and international destination. The pond that inspired Henry David Thoreau’s seminal work Walden, or Life in the Woods holds divergent meanings. To many, the reservation is a sacred landscape and international cultural heritage site. To some, it is a profound symbol of both Thoreau’s writings and the genesis of the land conservation movement. Simultaneously, the reservation is valued for its recreation opportunities, whether swimming in Walden Pond’s waters on hot summer days, canoeing on the pond’s calm waters, or cross-country skiing in its surrounding forests. This plan outlines recommendations that will improve the visitor experience for all, while preserving Walden Pond and its surrounding natural and cultural resources for the benefit of future generations. -

Baker River Hydroelectric Project FERC No
Baker River Hydroelectric Project FERC No. 2150 PDEA Initial Review Comments 1/16/04 The documents available to the general public, apparently Volume I, Part 1 of 2, and Volume II, Part 1 of 2, exclude key information including the results of numerous studies and other documents that are part of the license submittal. Because so many studies are incomplete and have therefore not been incorporated into the substantive compilation of factual material relevant to the current re-licensing effort, it is difficult to comment from the County’s perspective regarding addition of flood storage in the Baker Project. For example, there are several references to study “A09,” as yet incomplete, which will provide essential information regarding salmonid spawning and rearing habitat. It is also difficult to comment on a report that does not include the recommended conditions considered necessary to protect fish and wildlife from the federal resource agencies. In numerous instances, the PDEA refers to future actions that will be undertaken after the license is issued. (See page 5-117.) The mechanism to ensure these actions are completed is not clear. It should be noted that Puget Sound Energy (PSE) has refused to conduct a flood control study1 requested by Skagit County on December 2, 2002, to verify the County’s reservoir elevation recommendations, primarily based upon a concern that this study will not be complete in time to include with the license submittal. Yet in several other areas of the re-licensing effort, results of other studies are clearly -

Pacific Northwest National Laboratory Richland, Washington 99352 Executive Summary For more than a decade, the Pacific Northwest has been capable of generating more electric energy than the region’s utilities required for meeting customer demand. Now, however, the Regional Resource Adequacy Forum’s five-year forecast indicates the region will soon reach load-resource balance. As capacity constraints loom, the percentage of renewables on the grid continues to grow, driven by renewable portfolio standards throughout the region, production tax credits and decreasing costs. In the Bonneville Power Administration region, with a total of 6 gigawatts of wind power, the need to manage the variability and intermittency of renewable energy resources has become a very real challenge, sometimes necessitating wind curtailments to sustain reliable operations. The continued increase of these renewable sources will necessitate the deployment of technologies that can address intermittency in an environmentally sustainable fashion. Energy storage systems have the potential to improve the operating capabilities of the electricity grid. -

It began generating electricity on March 22, 1886. During the next ten years as many as 30 small electric companies operated within Seattle, but most were lost to financial insolvency and merger by 1899. During this same period the Stone & Webster Service Corporation was formed and began to provide management for small utilities nationwide. In 1899 Stone & Webster was engaged to study the competitive situation in Seattle. The result was a consolidation in 1900 which placed most of the power, light and railway -services in Seattle under the management of the newly organized Seattle Electric Company and thus established the city's first unified electric system. The increasing electrical demands of the following decade necessi- tated further mergers among the more than 50 separate utilities in the Puget Sound region, from which emerged five major operating companies. -
