Get an update of the program’s activities on state lands during the 1st half of 2020 by reading below. REGION 1 – NORTHERN NH Connecticut Lakes Natural Area, Pittsburg - CLNA Manager Jill Kilborn completed a timber harvest on the South Bay Bog area last winter with help from other Region 1 staff and DNCR foresters. It will complement the very first timber sale on the CLNA which took place in 2009. During that sale there was a focus on aspen along the winter road that runs through the South Bay Bog area. That work resulted in some excellent aspen regeneration which was expanded upon in this latest entry. One-half to one-acre groups were harvested in the surrounding hardwood stands to promote new understory growth and better wildlife cover. In between the groups, thinning was done to promote mast production of beech and cherry.

Forest Operations Manual
INTRODUCTION Timber sales have been performed on State forest and park lands for 88 years since 1911 when the first thinning operation was completed on the Monadnock Reservation in Jaffrey. This first project coincided with the hiring of the first New Hampshire State Forester and the establishment of the State Forestry Department in 1910. During early times, timber cutting was irregularly scheduled and was primarily related to forest and park improvements as State land was acquired. Major accomplishments included the extensive thinnings, plantings, and other forest improvements performed by the Federal Civilian Conservation Corps from 1933 to 1941, and the salvage between 1939 and 1943 of huge volumes of timber damaged during the 1938 hurricane. Since 1950, however, timber sales have been regularly scheduled and have become fundamental to the management and maintenance of the timber, wildlife, and other forest resources on State-owned forest lands. Today, there are approximately a dozen or more timber sales initiated each year on State-owned lands. A typical timber sale involves an exhaustive 46 steps from start to finish, averages over 215,000 board feet, lasts six weeks (once operational), and requires more than 155 man-hours of staff time to complete. Significantly, the most demanding and time consuming portion of each timber sale is the environmental and site analysis, planning, project approval, and layout activities which generally involve almost 70 percent of the total time required for each timber sale. The key to successful timber sales on State-owned forest lands is the availability of State, Federal, and private resource management specialists to assistance with the extensive planning and review for each project.

Timber Rattlesnake Crotalus Horridus
Appendix A: Reptiles Timber Rattlesnake Crotalus horridus Federal Listing N/A State Listing E Global Rank State Rank S1 Regional Status Very High Photo by Brendan Clifford Justification (Reason for Concern in NH) The Northeast Endangered Species and Wildlife Diversity Technical Committee determined that the timber rattlesnake is a species of regional concern in the northeastern United States (Therres 1999). This species warrants federal endangered or threatened species listing consideration, including prelisting status reviews (Therres 1999). In New England, timber rattlesnakes are listed as extirpated in Maine and Rhode Island, and endangered in Connecticut, Massachusetts, Vermont, and New Hampshire. In New Hampshire, the timber rattlesnake is likely the most endangered of any wildlife species, as there is only one known extant population. Timber rattlesnakes have large home ranges, especially males, and individuals may be killed as they cross roads or as human‐snake encounters increase. Southern New Hampshire is rapidly developing, and large undeveloped tracts of land needed to sustain timber rattlesnake populations are dwindling rapidly. As a result, opportunities for natural recolonization or restoration have been substantially reduced. More recently, an emerging snake fungal disease has been implicated in population declines of timber rattlesnakes in multiple northeastern states including the NH population. Distribution Rattlesnakes have been historically reported from scattered locations throughout the southern half of the state, extending into the White Mountains. Clusters of reports came from along the Connecticut River in the southwest corner of the state, along the Merrimack River, the Lakes Region, and from the edge of the White Mountains. Historic locations for timber rattlesnakes included Rattlesnake Island in Lake Winnipesaukee (reportedly the site of heavy nineteenth century persecution for the manufacture of rattlesnake oil (Oliver and Bailey 1939)), and other locations near the lake; the Mt.

Franklin Parks & Recreation Department
Franklin Parks & Recreation Department The Franklin Parks and Recreation’s Summer Program is based out of the Bessie Rowell Community Center. The Bessie Rowell Community Center provides ample room for both sunny day and rainy day activities. With multiple classrooms, the gym, and the stage, our participants have plenty of space to spread out and take part in a number of activities all happening at the same time. This offers more choices and a chance for the older and younger children to partake in separate and more age-appropriate events. The Community Center houses a designated game room with pool, ping pong, fooseball, and air hockey; an arts and crafts room; an activity room with books, board games, legos, activity sheets, and more. On sunny days, the Center offers expansive, on-site field space and playground area, again giving the children much-needed space to spread out and enjoy a number of sporting games, activities, and special events. In addition to our weekly beach days, and field trips all across New Hampshire, we are located close to Odell Park, Daniell Park, the Library, and The Franklin Falls Dam, all of which provide a chance for a group walk, new and exciting play spaces, and new scenery for the children to enjoy. Add to all of this a warm and caring staff who are also all CPR and First Aid certified, and there is no better way for your child to spend their summer. Ages: Kindergarten - 8th grade (must have completed Kindergarten) (Children are separated into groups by age) Program Dates: Monday, June 25th through Friday, August 31st (There is no camp July 4th) Hours: 6:30am - 6:00pm - Monday—Friday Our daily program will run from 9:00am to 4:00pm with extended hours (6:30am-9am & 4pm-6pm).
