STATE OF MAINE BOATING 2008 LAW S & RU L E S www.maine.gov/ifw STATE OF MAINE BOATING 2008 LAW S & RU L E S www.maine.gov/ifw MESSAGE FROM THE GOVERNOR & COMMISSIONER With an impressive inventory of 6,000 lakes and ponds, 3,000 miles of coastline, and over 32,000 miles of rivers and streams, Maine is truly a remarkable place for you to launch your boat and enjoy the variety and beauty of our waters. Providing public access to these bodies of water is extremely impor- tant to us because we want both residents and visitors alike to enjoy them to the fullest. The Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife works diligently to provide access to Maine’s waters, whether it’s a remote mountain pond, or Maine’s Casco Bay. How you conduct yourself on Maine’s waters will go a long way in de- termining whether new access points can be obtained since only a fraction of our waters have dedicated public access. Respecting other boaters, keeping launch areas clean and being sensitive to property owners as you enjoy your sport will ensure continued cooperative use. I wish you well as you enjoy our Maine waters this season and thank you in advance for your continued support. John E. Baldacci Governor Dear Maine Boater, On behalf of the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife, I thank you for choosing Maine as your boating destination. Our state has a variety of exceptional water bodies waiting to accommodate your every need. Making sure that we have public access to Maine waters is one of our most important responsibilities and as a boater you are very helpful in this process. The excise taxes collected from the sale of fuel; as well as from the sale of boats and fishing equipment help fund the acquisi- tion, creation, and maintenance of access sites throughout the state. There are over 100 public boating access sites that the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife built and continues to maintain and we are constantly trying to provide new ones. Our work has become increasingly difficult because the cost of property is spiraling upwards every year and there is less and less suitable land available. However, we stand committed to obtaining new sites so that we can provide you, our customers, with access to as many water bodies as we can. While you are enjoying your sport this season, be mindful of boater safety as an operator; respect other boaters and camp owners. Clean your boats before entering, and after coming out of, the water to eliminate the possibility of introducing invasive vegetation. By all doing our part, we help guarantee the availability of the resource for many years to come. Thank you for your help and enjoy our Maine waters. Roland D.

  • 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).

"--- --- IMPORTANT GEOLOGICAL FEATURES AND LOCALITIES OF MAINE Dabney W. Caldwell Department of Geology Boston University Introduction The Maine Critical Areas Program and the Maine Geological Survey are compiling a list of the geologic topics and localities of Maine considered significant or unusual enough for further research and possible inclusion in the list of Maine's Critical Areas. To qualify for further study the geologic feature must have significant scientific or educational value.· In addition, the geologic feature should either be unique to Maine or New England or be an outstanding example of a particular geologic phenomenon or feature. In February, 1981, members of the geologic community of Maine were polled for geologic topics that were of interest to them. The compiled results of the 1981 questionnaire were recirculated in early 1982 for further comments from the geologists who live or work in Maine.
