    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).

  • Historical and Cultural Resources Chapter
    VI. Historical and Cultural Resources Preface With the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020, it became clear that more than just a customary update of the prior Historical & Cultural Resources chapter to the town Master Plan was in order. The opportunity to review a decade of planning efforts and historic preservation activity indicates that Moultonborough is at a tipping point, with the future of a significant community landmark in the balance. Will the Town support the rehabilitation and redevelopment of the historic Taylor House to aid in the economic revitalization of Moultonborough Village, and in doing so follow the recommendations of every Planning study and report from the past decade? Or will the Town demolish this character-defining building at the Village center, creating a void that represents a failure of Planning and vision? A town’s Master Plan forms the basis for ordinances that help to manage growth, development, and change, which in turn are designed to preserve and enhance the unique quality of life and culture of New Hampshire, in accordance with the principles of smart growth, sound planning, and wise resource protection (RSA 674:2, I). As per RSA 674:2, III (h), this chapter “identifies cultural, archaeological, and historic resources and protects them for rehabilitation or preservation from the impact of other land use tools such as land use regulations, housing, or transportation.” In the field of historic preservation, historical and cultural resources (districts, sites, buildings, structures, objects, and landscapes) are defined as over 50 years in age. Historic preservation is inseparable from sound planning.

  • State Announces Fall Lake Drawdown

Because hydrologic conditions and recreational uses of the water bodies vary, the degree and date of the drawdowns are different for some of those lakes and ponds. The drawdown for Suncook Lakes in Barnstead is Oct. 1, and for Lake Opechee in Laconia, on Oct. 13. Drawdowns scheduled for Oct. 15 include Barnstead Parade in Barnstead, Crystal Lake and Shellcamp Pond in Gilmanton, Newfound Lake in Bristol, Squam Lake in Ashland, Sunset Lake in Alton, Webster Lake in Franklin, and Lake Winnisquam in Belmont. Lake Kanasatska in Moultonborough will be drawn down on Nov. 1. Lake drawdowns are intended to reduce winter ice damage to shoreline properties and to reduce spring flooding. The drawdowns also give property owners an opportunity to make necessary repairs to their waterfront property, as long as they obtain the appropriate permits from the Wetlands Bureau. The drawdowns of Lake Opechee and Lake Winnisquam occur on two-year intervals and last only a few weeks. This year, the lowering of Lake Opechee will begin on Oct. 13 and will likely take two days to pass the water downstream through Lake Winnisquam. The level of Winnisquam will not drop noticeably until Oct. 15. On Oct. 29, the flows at the Lakeport Dam will be increased to refill Lake Opechee, and the level of Lake Winnisquam should begin to rise late in the day on Oct.
