  • 2019 Volunteer Manual Saco River Corridor Commission
    Volunteer: _________________________________ Site(s): ____________________________________ 2019 Volunteer Manual Saco River Corridor Commission 2019 RIVERS Water Quality Monitoring Program is coordinated by: Dear RIVERS Volunteer, On behalf of Green Mountain Conservation Group and the Saco River Corridor Commission we would like to thank you for volunteering with the 2019 RIVERS Water Quality Monitoring Program. Since 2001, the Regional Interstate Volunteers for the Ecosystems and Rivers of Saco (RIVERS) program has depended on dedicated community members to conduct high quality citizen science in the Saco/Ossipee Watershed. By volunteering with RIVERS, you are collecting data to better understand the water quality in our area. You are helping to identify locations where water quality has been impacted, in addition to collecting valuable baseline data that can be utilized in planning for future regional development. While science is our goal, your safety is our top priority. Data collection is nice, but not at the expense of your well-being. If at any point in time you feel unsafe at your site, discontinue monitoring and leave. This includes but is not limited to high waters, suspicious persons, or inclement weather. Follow your gut, and only do what you feel comfortable with. Reach out to your volunteer coordinator if you have any issues or concerns about the program, even while out sampling. We want to help you if you get stuck on what to do, are having equipment issues, or have general comments on how to improve the program. We are here to help and value feedback from our volunteers. The RIVERS program is only successful because of you - our intrepid, boots-on-the-ground volunteer group.

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.

DIXFIELD HISTORY (Written by Mrs. Ada Murch Smith) Location Dixfield is situated on the north side of the Androscoggin River, between this and the northeastern border of Oxford County. The length of the town, east west, is about seven miles; north and south, five miles. The surface is uneven, especially northwest of the center, where 3 large hills stand in a line, of which the southwestern one, consisting of two peaks known as the "Sugar Loaves", is the highest. Near the Androscoggin, a little west of the middle of the town is a little hill called "The Bluff." in the southeastern part of the town is a group of three mountains in a triangular position, of which the highest are, Burnt Mountain and Aunt Hepsy Brown's Mountain. Webb River forms the boundary line between this town and Mexico on the west. Newton Brook comes down from the north across the middle of the town, to the Androscoggin; and the Seven Mile Brook crosses the northeastern corner.
