  • Official List of Public Waters
    Official List of Public Waters New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services Water Division Dam Bureau 29 Hazen Drive PO Box 95 Concord, NH 03302-0095 (603) 271-3406 https://www.des.nh.gov NH Official List of Public Waters Revision Date October 9, 2020 Robert R. Scott, Commissioner Thomas E. O’Donovan, Division Director OFFICIAL LIST OF PUBLIC WATERS Published Pursuant to RSA 271:20 II (effective June 26, 1990) IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not use this list for determining water bodies that are subject to the Comprehensive Shoreland Protection Act (CSPA). The CSPA list is available on the NHDES website. Public waters in New Hampshire are prescribed by common law as great ponds (natural waterbodies of 10 acres or more in size), public rivers and streams, and tidal waters. These common law public waters are held by the State in trust for the people of New Hampshire. The State holds the land underlying great ponds and tidal waters (including tidal rivers) in trust for the people of New Hampshire. Generally, but with some exceptions, private property owners hold title to the land underlying freshwater rivers and streams, and the State has an easement over this land for public purposes. Several New Hampshire statutes further define public waters as including artificial impoundments 10 acres or more in size, solely for the purpose of applying specific statutes. Most artificial impoundments were created by the construction of a dam, but some were created by actions such as dredging or as a result of urbanization (usually due to the effect of road crossings obstructing flow and increased runoff from the surrounding area).

  • Natural Resources Chapter
    Natural Resources Chapter (For review – September 8, 2015) Vision: Richmond residents are responsible stewards of our natural resources, including open space, forest, water bodies and wetlands. We balance growth and development with the preservation, promotion and continued accessibility of our resources for recreation, wildlife habitat, agriculture, and scenic values. Introduction This chapter provides a summary about the natural systems which comprise Richmond’s physical environment. The following areas will be discussed to determine how our natural features relate to the overall health and vitality of the town and its future development and land use patterns: geology, topography, soils, surface and ground water, land cover, and unique natural areas and wildlife habitat. A realistic assessment and appreciation of our environmental features will allow us to both identify constraints on development and to identify areas appropriate for development where negative impacts to natural resources are minimal and costs are lower for construction. The town’s natural resources are regulated by a combination of federal, state and local laws and regulations and often address the same feature. Some resources require multiple levels of review and approval before land development may occur while others are less restrictive. The information provided in this chapter is designed to help the community understand its natural resources and make sure land use planning and development occurs in such a way that future generations can enjoy the values and beauty of the town. Watersheds Richmond is divided into eight major watersheds, each with its own physical characteristics, natural environments and patterns of development. All of the land area within the town eventually drains into the Kennebec River.

The stations are listed in downstream order. Tributary streams are indicated by indention. Station names are given in their most recently published forms. Parentheses around part of a station name indicate that the inclosed word or words were used in an earlier published name of the station or in a name under which records were published by some agency other than the Geological Survey. The drainage areas, in square miles, are the latest figures pu~lished or otherwise available at this time. Drainage areas that were obviously inconsistent with other drainage areas on the same stream have been omitted. Under "period of record" breaks of less than a 12-month period are not shown. A dash not followed immediately by a closing date shows that the station was in operation on September 30, 1950. The years given are calendar years. Periods·of records published by agencies other than the Geological Survey are listed in parentheses only when they contain more detailed information or are for periods not reported in publications of the Geological Survey.
