  • 2. Natural Resources
    2. Natural Resources Nottingham’s natural resources are a critical consideration in establishing a proper approach for land use planning and management. Understanding natural resource values provides a rational basis for determining which areas of the town are more appropriate for protection and open space and which areas are more suitable for development. Natural resources such as slope, forest resources, wildlife and water resources add to Nottingham’s character, provide recreational and economic opportunities and contribute to the quality of life for Nottingham residents. These natural resources also provide both opportunities and limitations for growth. Steep slopes and wetlands, for example, are less suitable for development, while better drained, flatter areas are more suitable. Large format versions of the maps referenced in this chapter and provided in the appendix are available in the Municipal Office Complex. Topography and Elevation—Elevation Ranges from 200 to 1,000 Feet Nottingham lies in the New England Upland section of the New England Physiographic Region. The hilly terrain ranges in elevation from about 200 feet in the southeast section of town to approximately 1000 feet in Pawtuckaway State Park. See Map 1, Topography-Sand and Gravel Deposits. Nottingham’s slopes and hilly terrain are controlled by the underlying bedrock that often is exposed as ledge or bedrock outcrops. The Pawtuckaway Mountains have been geologically determined to be massifs, formed by the erosion of volcanic ring dikes. The slopes or steepness of the terrain are variable ranging from gently sloping areas such as around Nottingham Square to over 25% mainly in Pawtuckaway State Park. Once slopes get to greater than 15%, activity such as forestry and development become more problematic and may require appropriate land management practices to minimize environmental impacts.

Through the Town Beach, the Fundy boat launch, and State Park access, citizens of Nottingham and members of the public take advantage of its many recreational opportunities. The Pawtuckaway Lake Improvement Association, (PLIA), was established to monitor and improve the health and safety of Pawtuckaway Lake. The PLIA also educates the public on the conservation, protection, and improvement of water quality, natural shoreline, wildlife habitat, recreational, and natural assets of Pawtuckaway Lake. To that end, the PLIA collaborates with conservation commissions, planning boards, state and federal entities, land trusts, and other conservation organizations working to conserve or protect natural resources that have an impact on the Lamprey River Watershed that includes Pawtuckaway Lake. In 2014 variable milfoil was discovered in Pawtuckaway Lake near the Horse Island boat launch. Since then a team of resident volunteers, using snorkels, hookah gear, and scuba equipment have been regularly searching the area around the Horse Island site to locate and remove any additional areas of infestation.
