Pioneer Valley Planning Commission 26 Central Street West Springfield, MA 01089 ❖ The Connecticut River Strategic Plan Acknowledgements The Connecticut River Strategic Plan was guided by the involvement of hundreds of residents who partici- pated in workshops and public surveys throughout the planning process. A Watershed Survey was com- pleted in 1999 of civic leaders in all Massachusetts communities in the Connecticut River mainstem water shed to establish the top priority problems and goals for the watershed. A large watershed-wide public forum was held in Hadley, Massachusetts in November, 1998 to identify priority problems and to brainstorm possible solutions. Ideas from this public involvement were organized and refined in this report by the following organizations and staff: Franklin Regional Council of Governments Peggy Sloan, Janice Stone Connecticut River Watershed Council Whitty Sanford, Peg McDonough Massachusetts Water Resources Research Center Jerry Schoen, Francoise Walk University of Massachusetts Extension Scott Jackson Pioneer Valley Planning Commission Christopher Curtis, Carl Mailler Executive Office of Environmental Affairs John O’Leary MA Dept. of Fisheries, Wildlife and Russell Cohen Environmental Law Enforcement, Riverways Program Connecticut River Watershed Team John O’Leary is the Team Leader for the Connecticut River Watershed Team.

  • The Nayigation of the Connecticut River
    1903.] The Navigation of the Connecticut River. 385 THE NAYIGATION OF THE CONNECTICUT RIVER. BY W. DELOSS LOVE. THE discovery of the Connecticut river has been generally attributed hy histoi'ians to Adriaen Block. If Giovanni da Verrazano in 1524 or Estovan Gomez in 1525 sailed by its mouth, we have no record of the fact ; and it is very doubtful whether a river, whose semicircle of sand bars must have proclaimed it such, would have attracted much attention from any navigator seeking a northwest passage. In 1614, Block, having completed his yacht the Onrust [Restless], set sail from Manhattan to explore the bays and rivers to the. eastward. His vessel was well adapted to his purpose, being of sixteen tons burden, forty-four and a half feet long and eleven and a half feefc wide. He was able thus to obtain a more exact knowledge of the coast, as may be seen by the "Figurative Map," which is sup- posed to exhibit the results of his explorations.^ At the mouth of the Connecticut river he found the water quite shallow, but the draught of his yacht enabled him to cross the bar Avithout danger and the white man was soon for the first time folloAving northward the course of New Eng- land's longest river. There were few inhabitants to be seen near the mouth, but at a point which is thought to have been just above the bend near Middletown, he came upon the lodges of. the Sequins, located on both banks of thé river. Still farther up he saw an Indian village "resembling a fort for protection against the attacks of their enemies." This was in latitude 41° 48', and was, > De Laet's " Description of the New Netherlands," x: Y:,met.

Several states have been minutely and philosophically described ; but were some gentleman to furnish even as limited a sketch as this, of every other section of the union, it would not per- haps be deemed vain to presume, that with such aids, and the materials already in possession, a native or foreign geographer would be enabled to prepare a more extensive and satisfactory description of our country, thap any that has hith- erto been published.

    Thinking Like a Floodplain: Water, Work, and Time in the Connecticut River Valley, 1790-1870 By (c) 2016 Jared S. Taber Submitted to the graduate degree program in History and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. ________________________________ Chairperson Sara M. Gregg ________________________________ Gregory T. Cushman ________________________________ Edmund P. Russell ________________________________ Robert J. Gamble ________________________________ Peggy A. Schultz ________________________________ Dorothy M. Daley Date Defended: 28 April 2016 The Dissertation Committee for Jared S. Taber certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Thinking Like a Floodplain: Water, Work, and Time in the Nineteenth Century Connecticut River Valley ________________________________ Chairperson Sara M. Gregg Date approved: 28 April 2016 ii Abstract Residents of the nineteenth-century Connecticut River Valley learned the character of the river, and water more broadly, through their labor. Whether they encountered water in the process of farming, shipping, industrial production, or land reclamation, it challenged them to understand its power as both an object outside their control and a tool that facilitated their work. This awareness of water's autonomy and agency necessitated attention to how water's flow varied across timescales ranging from seasons, through historical precedents in working with water, and into the geological processes whereby the river shaped the contours of the Connecticut River floodplain and the valley as a whole. Communities mobilized this knowledge when explaining the limitations that ought to circumscribe novel water uses and trying to maintain the river's status as a common tool shared among diverse bodies of users.

  • 31 Section 4
    SECTION 4 - ENVIRONMENTAL INVENTORY AND ANALYSIS 4.1 GEOLOGY & SOILS The geological history of South Hadley is both dramatic and significant. Continental drift, the formation of the Appalachian Mountain chain, volcanoes and glacial scouring, have all played a role in the physical development of the Connecticut River Valley. These factors have influenced the topography and soils which, in turn, have determined surface and ground-water characteristics, forest cover and finally land use. During the Triassic Period (220 to 180 million years ago), two faults formed on either side of what is now the Connecticut Valley. The forces of continental drift pulled these faults apart causing the land between to drop and form the Triassic basin (the Connecticut Valley). The subsequent geological activity formed the topography, rocks and soils of the Valley have given present day South Hadley its landscape characteristics . Figure 2 shows a cross section of the sedimentary and igneous rocks in the Range and Valley and is to be used as a reference for the following discussion. Sugarloaf Arkose Sugarloaf arkose was the first deposit in the Triassic basin. It arrived from streams in the east which first deposited larger rocks in the eastern portion of the Valley and then dropped smaller rocks gradually westward as the streams slowed. It is a buff to pale red arkose (a sandstone with a high percentage of feldspar fragments) that gets its color from both iron found throughout the cement of this sediment and the pinkish to orange grains of orthoclase feldspar. Hitchcock Volcanics The Triassic era was unusually active with volcanism.
