  • Thames River Basin Partnership Partners in Action Quarterly Report
    Thames River Basin Partnership Partners in Action Quarterly Report Summer 2018 Volume 47 The Thames River watershed includes the Five Mile, French, Moosup, Natchaug, Pachaug, Quinebaug, Shetucket, Willimantic, and Yantic Rivers and all their tributaries. We’re not just the "Thames main stem." Greetings from the Thames River Basin Partnership. Once again this quarter our partners have proven their ability to work cooperatively on projects compatible with the TRBP Workplan and in support of our common mission statement to share organizational resources and to develop a regional approach to natural resource protection. I hope you enjoy reading about these activities as much as I enjoy sharing information about them with you. For more information on any of these updates, just click on the blue website hyperlinks in this e-publication, but be sure to come back to finish reading the rest of the report. Jean Pillo, Watershed Conservation Project Manager Eastern Connecticut Conservation District And TRBP Coordinator Special Presentation If you missed the July 2018 meeting of the Thames River Basin Partnership, then you missed a presentation by Chuck Toal, Avalonia Land Conservancy’s development and programs director. Chuck gave a presentation on the 50 years of accomplishments of ALC as a regional land trust. ALC is focused on 22 towns in southeastern Connecticut. ALC, which oversees 4000 acres of preserved land, achieved accreditation in 2017. Their success has resulted from a working board of directors and the establishment of town committees to focus on smaller areas. Their current focus is to be more selective on land acquisition, particularly concentrating on building blocks of open space while also building an endowment fund land stewardship going forward.

    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).

Marginal Seas Around the States GORDON IRELAND* THE CONTROVERSY Our Navy, which admits that for a delightful period in the West Indies it "made not one single mistake,"1 is not always equally fortunate in home waters, and on the coast of California seems to be particularly unlucky. There is no question this time of piling up a destroyer squadron on jagged gray rocks; but an attempt to take advantage of a fight among local oil and political interests to gain for itself property and power ran headlong into legislative and legal reefs which are as yet uncleared. The gold striped arms dropped the melon halfway to the fence, and the loud resulting squash aroused not only the owners but some of the neighbors. The Board of Strategy (Domestic) stands at atten- tion beside its blackboard, wondering glumly where the cus- tomary rote formula of first-line-of-defense-brave-and-bold-grab- it went astray, and is still foggily trying to perceive how ques- tions of constitutional and international law could possibly have obtruded themselves into the issue.

  • Ph River, Brook and Tributary Sites the Normal Ph Range For
    2016 Parameter Data: pH River, Brook and Tributary Sites The standard measurement of acidity is pH. A pH of less than 7 is acidic; above pH 7 is alkaline, also known by the term “basic.” The pH measurement is a logarithmic measurement, which means that each unit decrease in pH equals a ten-fold increase in acidity. In other words, pH 5 water is ten times more acidic than pH 6 water. Aquatic organisms need the pH of their water body to be within a certain range for optimal growth and survival. Although each organism has an ideal pH, most aquatic organisms prefer pH of 6.5 – 8.0. Watershed LOCATION MAY JUNE JULY AUG. SEPT. OCT.
