In a two-dimensional viewing, it is difficult to visualize the direction in which water naturally flows. A watershed map serves the purpose of identifying the direction in which all surface waters flow within a specific land area to a waterbody. Highpoints, such as ridges, mountains, and hills, form the typical dividing lines of watersheds and represent the point from which all water flows downward. Watersheds may be further divided into the smaller drainage areas, known as subwatersheds. Because municipal boundaries rarely follow watersheds, working in a watershed context requires communication and coordination between multiple municipalities. Maintaining healthy watersheds is important because they provide critical natural services that sustain and enrich our daily lives, such as plentiful and safe drinking water.

Analysis of Route Alternatives (Pdf)
Analysis of Route Alternatives Assessing Feasibility - Planning Methodology Community Outreach and the Planning Process Public and stakeholder engagement was a critical part of the master planning process. Four public meetings were held (see photos at right) at key intervals during the planning process. Each of the meetings had strong participation, with over 100 people attending each event. Online outreach included direct emails to several local email lists and meeting notiﬁcations on the project’s website and Facebook page. Public comments were also solicited using a dedicated e-mail address as well as an online survey that received more than 450 responses. The Steering Committee helped raise awareness of the planning process and opportunities for public and stakeholder input by compiling a list of, and notifying, public agencies and local organizations that focused on topics such as recreational activities, preservation, and economic development. Many of these organizations distributed meeting announcements to their own lists of constituents, which increased awareness of this project and helped attract public participation. Public Meetings Meeting 1: February 17, 2014 Introduced the project and master planning process, along with trail types that might comprise the different alignment possibilities. edL a table mapping exercise in which participants provided detailed input on the route in three sections. Each section was discussed at three or more tables, after which each group presented their discussion to the larger group. Meeting 2: July 9, 2014 Provided updates on the route analysis, including Breakneck Connector funding application (see page 34 for more info on this project component). Fielded public comments and then responded to open questions, with the design team utilizing display boards and maps.

Open PDF File, 742.26 KB, for 2019 DWM Environmental Monitoring
2019 DWM ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING OVERVIEW (CN 518.0) A brief overview of the surface water monitoring performed in 2019 by personnel of the MassDEP’s Division of Watershed Management (DWM) is presented here. Information pertaining to the individual components of DWM’s Surface Water Monitoring Program is presented at http://www.mass.gov/eea/agencies/massdep/water/watersheds/water-quality- monitoring-program.html#1. The main programmatic objectives of the DWM related to surface water quality monitoring are to: . Collect chemical, physical and biological data to assess the degree to which designated uses, such as aquatic life, primary and secondary contact recreation, fish consumption and aesthetics, are supported in the waters of the Commonwealth; . Collect chemical, physical and biological data to support analysis and development of TMDLs and implementation plans to reduce pollutant loads to waters of the Commonwealth; . Screen fish in selected waterbodies for fish tissue contaminants (metals, PCBs and organochlorine pesticides) to provide for public health risk assessment; . To the extent feasible, locate pollution sources and promote and facilitate timely correction; . Identify and assess new and emerging water contaminants of concern; . Collect water quality data to enable the determination of trends in parameter concentrations and/or loads; . Collect data to support the establishment or revision of water quality standards and policies; and to . Measure the effectiveness of water quality management projects or programs such as the effectiveness of implementing TMDLs or watershed-based plans. Quality assurance is maintained for DWM’s watershed monitoring program to ensure implementation of an effective and efficient sampling design, to meet programmatic goals and to provide data meeting specific data quality objectives.

Iii-E. Bicycle and Pedestrian Network System
III-E. BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN NETWORK SYSTEM A. INTRODUCTION While recreation has been the primary use for bicycling and walking modes in the past, transportation officials are increasingly recognizing bicyclists and pedestrians as primary transportation modes for everyday activities. Since the early 1970s, bicycling and walking for commuting and travel purposes has been increasing and with recent pushes in combating climate change and promoting energy efficiency, cost effectiveness and health benefits, both of these modes are maintaining, and growing, their foothold as recognized daily transportation modes. Within the CMMPO region, the existing bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure network can be classified as two types: (1) On-road Accommodations and (2) Long-Distance Bikeways/Trails/ Paths. B. ON-ROAD ACCOMMODATIONS Much more common than “off-road” accommodations, “on-road” accommodations for bicyclists and pedestrians can be found in all of the 40 communities in the region. Because all of the communities in the region were established prior to the development of motorized vehicles, almost all of the have a Central Business District, town center or downtown that was developed around high-density land uses with a multi-purpose street network. In addition, many neighborhoods outside of the downtown or town centers were built with pedestrian accommodations that connected to other neighborhoods. B.1 Types of Facilities Within any given corridor, bicyclists and pedestrians might ideally be provided with more than one option to meet their travel and access. Below are common “on-road” bicycle and pedestrian facilities and accommodations that are typically found in urban and suburban areas: B.1.1 Shared Lanes Shared lanes are streets and highways with no special provision for bicyclists.

90 Dams Removed in 2019 to Restore Rivers
90 Dams Removed in 2019 to Restore Rivers American Rivers releases annual list including dams in Alabama, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Indiana, Iowa, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Texas, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia, and Wisconsin for a total of 26 states. Nationwide, 1,722 dams have been removed from 1912 through 2019. Dam removal brings a variety of benefits to local communities, including restoring river health and clean water, revitalizing fish and wildlife, improving public safety and recreation, and enhancing local economies. Working in a variety of functions with partner organizations throughout the country, American Rivers contributed financial and technical support in many of the removals. Contact information is provided for dam removals, if available. For further information about the list, please contact Jessie Thomas-Blate, American Rivers, Director of River Restoration at 202.347.7550 or [email protected]. This list includes all dam removals reported to American Rivers (as of February 6, 2020) that occurred in 2019, regardless of the level of American Rivers’ involvement. Inclusion on this list does not indicate endorsement by American Rivers. Dams are categorized alphabetically by state. Howle and Turner Dam, Tallapoosa River, Alabama The removal of Howle and Turner Dam was in the works for over four years. This project was the result of a great partnership between the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s Partners for Fish and Wildlife program and the Alabama Rivers and Streams Network. The Service coordinated the pre-restoration planning and worked with their Fisheries and Aquatic Conservation Aquatic Habitat Restoration Team to carry out the demolition and restoration of the river channel.
