Document Overview January, 2008 New Hampshire Hydrography Dataset: Fourth Order and Higher Streams Document Overview January, 2008 This document contains a summary of fourth order and higher streams in New Hampshire, based on the 1:24,000-Scale New Hampshire Hydrography Dataset (NHHD). The NHHD is archived in the GRANIT database at Complex Systems Research Center, University of New Hampshire. Description of worksheets in this document: Summary by GNIS Name: Summarizes stream length by GNIS name (Geographic Names Information System, from the U.S. Geological Survey). Please note that multiple streams across the state may have the same name. In these cases, the GNIS ID uniquely identifies individual streams. Stream length totals are therefore based on GNIS ID. Addionally, there are occurrences where streams did not receive a GNIS name. These streams could not be uniquely identified, and therefore were summarized as a group (Unnamed Stream/River). Summary by Stream Order: Summarizes stream length by stream order. Summary by Town Name: Summarizes stream length by town name. Process Steps: Describes GIS process used to extract data required to generate these summaries.

    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).

    Appendix B: Habitats Floodplain Habitats Photo by Ben Kimball Acres in NH: 23,201 Percent of NH Area: >1 Acres Protected: 7656 Percent Protected: 33 Habitat Distribution Map Habitat Description Floodplains occur in river valleys adjacent to river channels and are prone to periodic flooding. Floodplains are often comprised of forests, oxbows, meadows, and thickets. The habitats, vegetation, and hydrologic regime of floodplains are strongly influenced by watershed size, gradient, and channel morphometry. Most open or partially wooded floodplain communities occur on low floodplains. Sloughs, oxbows, vernal pools, and other depressions in the floodplain tend to be inundated for longer periods than low floodplains (Sperduto 2011). Floodplain soils range from well‐drained coarse sand on levees to poorly drained silts and mucks in depressions, and tend to be moderately to strongly minerotrophic (Sperduto 2011). Montane/near‐boreal floodplains are found primarily along rivers in the White Mountains or northern New Hampshire, and have relatively high gradients and flashy flood regimes compared to other floodplain systems. Sugar maple (Acer saccharum) and balsam fir (Abies balsamea) are dominant trees, and riparian wetlands such as oxbows and sloughs are uncommon in these high‐ gradient floodplains. Major river silver maple floodplains occur primarily along the Connecticut and Merrimack Rivers, and occasionally on lower reaches of major tributaries. These floodplains are often interspersed with oxbow marshes and shrub communities. The forested areas are characterized by a canopy of silver maple (Acer saccharinum) over a lush herbaceous layer, with a sparse shrub layer. Temperate minor river floodplains are found along large streams and small rivers in central and New Hampshire Wildlife Action Plan Appendix B-101 Appendix B: Habitats southern New Hampshire.
