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). -

BROODSTOCK ATLANTIC SALMON. Salmon stocking began during the third week of October (in Mount Tom Pond in the west and Crystal Lake in the east); later than anticipated because water temperatures were too warm during September and early October.

The last of the post spawn stockings (approximately 220 salmon in all), will be completed in mid- December. These later stocked fish were all be stocked into the Naugatuck and Shetucket rivers and they average 7-10 lb./fish with some even larger (up to 15 lbs. Most of the 799 salmon stocked earlier this fall were age 2+ weighing between 2-5 lbs. each. In total this fall, Crystal Lake (Ellington) and Mount Tom Pond each received 50 fish; and close to 460 salmon will be stocked into both the Naugatuck Shetucket rivers. TROUT STOCKING. Low flows and warm early fall water temperatures hampered fall stocking efforts in rivers, streams, lakes, and ponds throughout the State. Nonetheless, approximately 79,500 (compared to 55,700 last fall) trout were stocked this fall; including 1,000 trophy-size Survivor Brown Trout, 2,250 trophy-size Cortland Brown Trout, 12,000 trophy-size Rainbow Trout, 3,000 fingerling (7 inch) Survivor Brown Trout, 700 trophy-size Brook Trout (average 3 lbs.), 3,000 adult Survivor Brown Trout, 57,550 adult Rainbow, and a mix of 36 large Broodstock rainbows and browns (approx. -
