Robinson, M.A., R.P.A. Principal Investigator Fathom Research, LLC 1213 Purchase Street, Suite 315 New Bedford, Massachusetts 02740 Submitted to: The Public Archaeology Laboratory, Inc. 210 Lonsdale Avenue Pawtucket, Rhode Island 02860 Woods Hole Group, Inc. 81 Technology Park Drive East Falmouth, Massachusetts 02536 Prepared for: U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, New England District 696 Virginia Road Concord, Massachusetts 01742-2751 May 2010 MANAGEMENT ABSTRACT A systematic remote sensing archaeological survey was performed in November 2009 for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, New England District’s proposed nearshore breakwaters and jetty-spur project study area at Camp Ellis Beach, Saco, in York County, Maine. The investigation involved archival research, field survey to record marine geophysical and geotechnical data, and analysis and synthesis of the research and survey results to assess the Project study area’s archaeological sensitivity and to determine the presence/absence of prehistoric and historic period submerged archaeological deposits within it. The survey was authorized and conducted under contract with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, New England District to comply with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 as amended (1976, 1980, 1992, 1999) (36 CFR 800). Performance of the remote sensing archaeological reconnaissance survey resulted in the conclusions that Project study area: possesses a low archaeological sensitivity for containing contextually intact formerly terrestrial and/or maritime-related submerged prehistoric archaeological deposits and a moderate archaeological sensitivity for containing submerged historic archaeological deposits, although contains no previously identified National Register-eligible or listed prehistoric or historic archaeological properties; contains no remote sensingl or geotechnical evidence of contextually intact paleosols with prehistoric archaeological sensitivity and: contains no remote sensing evidence of submerged historic period shipwrecks or maritime infrastructure. Based on the results of this study, no further archaeological investigation of the offshore portion of the proposed Camp Ellis Beach nearshore breakwaters and jetty-spur project area is recommended.

  • Section 5-2 Androscoggin River (Friends of Merrymeeting Bay)
    Maine Department of Environmental Protection Androscoggin River (FOMB) 2018 Summary Data Report Section 5-2 Androscoggin River (Friends of Merrymeeting Bay) Androscoggin River The Androscoggin River is the third largest river in the state of Maine. It has a length of 177 miles and drainage area of 3,450 square miles (2,730 sq. mi. in Maine).1 The Androscoggin River’s headwaters are Umbagog Lake in Maine/New Hampshire. From there it flows into New Hampshire and then back into Maine through the towns of Gilead and Bethel. It continues flowing through the towns and cities of Rumford, Mexico, Dixfield, Jay, Livermore Falls, Lewiston, Auburn, Lisbon, Lisbon Falls, Durham, Brunswick, and Topsham where it joins the Kennebec River at Merrymeeting Bay. The Androscoggin River has a long history of industrial and municipal use over the last 200 years.1 Beginning in the early 1800s, many dams were constructed for mills, primarily in the lower part of the river. By the late 1800s, many textile and lumber mills were in operation, mostly from Lewiston to Brunswick. Pulp and paper mills that are still in operation today were established in the late 1800s in New Hampshire, Rumford, and Jay. Beginning in the late 1920s, Central Maine Power built hydroelectric dams that impounded much of the river from Lewiston to Livermore Falls. Some of these uses continue today. “Along its course to the sea, the river is repeatedly dammed. It receives discharges from industrial and municipal sources, as well as polluted runoff from a variety of sources.”2 Specific problems include mill discharges, combined sewer overflows (CSOs), dam impacts (28 dams exist), and historical sediment toxins.

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).

As our data show, while classified as C, this section has long been on the cusp of and now is actually meeting, Class B standards. We therefore propose it be upgraded from C to B. FOMB has the most complete set of classification data for the reaches in this proposal. We began our monitoring program in 1999 and continue to this day with over twenty sampling sites on the Androscoggin, Kennebec and around Merrymeeting Bay. FOMB joined the VRMP in 2009 to further support and substantiate water classification upgrades. Because the actual water quality of the lower Androscoggin sections described here exceeds that of their current classification, our request for a reclassification from C to B is supported by the State antidegradation policy as quoted below: 38 M.R.S.A.
