  • 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).

  • 2. Infrastructure
    Lakes Region Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy 2. Infrastructure Infrastructure consists of the facilities and services necessary to support economic resources. Maintaining these services and facilities while planning for future needs, enables communities to direct future growth and development to areas with infrastructure. Community facilities and services protect and promote the health and safety of residents. The region has many locations suitable for expansion of commercial centers, however, services and facilities available vary by town as many are rural and do not have extensive developed infrastructure. Industrial Parks Several towns in the region have established a designated industrial park, listed in Table 2.1. The parks are currently (or have near-term future plans to be) serviced by public sewer and water. Manufacturing, light industry are generally located in these parks, along with some commercial facilities. Map 5 shows the location of each of these parks.
