  • Natural Resources & Climate Change
    Natural Resources & Climate Change The natural environment is the foundation upon which communities are built. The purpose of this chapter is to identify the kinds of natural resources that exist in Enfield and determine how they can contribute to the community’s vision for the future. The chapter will also examine the condition of those resources and try to shed light on how people’s actions and land use decisions can affect their environment. A review of the regulations that govern the use of the town’s resources will help to make sure that the goals, objectives, policies and actions of this Plan will be consistent with other local, regional, statewide and national regulations and policies. Most importantly, the information in this chapter will help the Town identify areas that are suitable for development, those that can support limited development, and those that should be protected from development. Geographic Location Enfield is a town of approximately 34 square miles in north-central Connecticut, along the border with Massachusetts. The Connecticut River separates Enfield from Suffield to the west. Enfield shares its southern border with East Windsor and Ellington and its eastern border with Somers. Topography The topography ranges from 14’ - 42’ above sea level along the Connecticut River and rises as one progresses eastward. Elevations greater than 240’ are found along the eastern edge of the town, generally east of Taylor Road and Charnley Road. The town’s highest elevations of 348’ – 444’ are found in the southeast corner of the town. Figure 50 Enfield’s Topography – The lines represent the contours of the land.

  • Low Flow Rivers in Connecticut Compiled by Rivers Alliance of Connecticut
    Low Flow Rivers in Connecticut Compiled by Rivers Alliance of Connecticut The following water courses have been identified impaired or threatened by low flows in part or in their entirety. The list was first compiled in 2002, primarily from DEP documents. Subsequently, the DEP stopped reporting the “threatened” category, so these entries cannot be updated readily. The underlined entries have been listed as impaired. We are in the process of rechecking entries. More information available on request.
