    Chapter Xxx Development of Jaffrey As a Recreational Center

    CHAPTER XXX DEVELOPMENT OF JAFFREY AS A RECREATIONAL CENTER SUMMER BUSINESS I like this place and willingly could waste my time in it. SHAKESPEARE. Such were the sentiments of Celia when viewing the Forest of Arden as portrayed by the immortal Bard of Avon in "As You Like It"; and such have been the thoughts of the thousands of visitors who have been attracted to Jaffrey by its Monadnock Mountain, its tree-clad hills, its crystal lakes, its sparkling brooks, and its shady roads. And a goodly proportion of those who have come once to taste those pleasures have returned year after year not only to "waste time," in the words of Celia, but to renew strength and vigor of body and soul by breathing the pure air, tramping over the hills, resting in the cool woods, and bathing in the shining lakes. Neither history nor tradition tell of the beginning of Jaffrey as a pleasure resort, but more than one hundred years ago the town found it necessary to license places of refreshment for mountain visitors (see The Grand Monadnock), as appears from John Fife's advertise­ ment in the New Hampshire Sentinel of August 6, 1824: The subscriber will be ready to wait on who shall visit Monadnock this season after Tuesday next at the brook about one-half hour's walk southeast of the pin­ nacle where he is erecting a sufficient building as shelter from the sun, rain or the chills of night. Tea and coffee, with suitable meats and drinks will be provided. Horses may be left at his house on the turnpike.

    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).

    2. Infrastructure

    Lakes Region Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy 2. Infrastructure Infrastructure consists of the facilities and services necessary to support economic resources. Maintaining these services and facilities while planning for future needs, enables communities to direct future growth and development to areas with infrastructure. Community facilities and services protect and promote the health and safety of residents. The region has many locations suitable for expansion of commercial centers, however, services and facilities available vary by town as many are rural and do not have extensive developed infrastructure. Industrial Parks Several towns in the region have established a designated industrial park, listed in Table 2.1. The parks are currently (or have near-term future plans to be) serviced by public sewer and water. Manufacturing, light industry are generally located in these parks, along with some commercial facilities. Map 5 shows the location of each of these parks.

    Partnership Opportunities for Lake-Friendly Living Service Providers NH LAKES Lakesmart Program

    Partnership Opportunities for Lake-Friendly Living Service Providers NH LAKES LakeSmart Program Only with YOUR help will New Hampshire’s lakes remain clean and healthy, now and in the future. The health of our lakes, and our enjoyment of these irreplaceable natural resources, is at risk. Polluted runoff water from the landscape is washing into our lakes, causing toxic algal blooms that make swimming in lakes unsafe. Failing septic systems and animal waste washed off the land are contributing bacteria to our lakes that can make people and pets who swim in the water sick. Toxic products used in the home, on lawns, and on roadways and driveways are also reaching our lakes, poisoning the water in some areas to the point where fish and other aquatic life cannot survive. NH LAKES has found that most property owners don’t know how their actions affect the health of lakes. We’ve also found that property owners want to do the right thing to help keep the lakes they enjoy clean and healthy and that they often need help of professional service providers like YOU! What is LakeSmart? The LakeSmart program is an education, evaluation, and recognition program that inspires property owners to live in a lake- friendly way, keeping our lakes clean and healthy. The program is free, voluntary, and non-regulatory. Through a confidential evaluation process, property owners receive tailored recommendations about how to implement lake-friendly living practices year-round in their home, on their property, and along and on the lake. Property owners have access to a directory of lake- friendly living service providers to help them adopt lake-friendly living practices.
  • Open Space Master Plan

    Open Space Master Plan

    SECTION VII. CONSERVATION AND OPEN SPACE A. INTRODUCTION The Conservation and Open Space Section is intended to guide the protection of the City’s natural resources and environment while promoting the appropriate and efficient use of land and water within the City of Concord in a manner consistent with the economic, physical, and social needs and desires of the citizens of Concord. Appropriate uses of open space have been identified as recreation, public service and safety, resource production, and environmental protection while providing the maximum and multi-purpose use of open space by the citizens of Concord. Open space in Concord is intended to be a system, interconnected and interrelated, and therefore, the links among major open space areas, as well as between the open areas and developed areas, must be defined The Conservation and Open Space Use Section consists of a review of existing protected lands with a focus on additions to the protected land inventory that have occurred since the last Master Plan was adopted in December 1993. Conservation and open space goals are articulated, and applied to and interpreted upon the landscape of the City, and as displayed on maps that indicate how land in Concord should be preserved and protected. Policies and recommendations to guide the implementation of the Future Open Space Plan complete this Section of the Master Plan. B. CONSERVATION AND OPEN SPACE GOALS When the City Council established the Conservation Commission in 1971, it set forth for the Commission the goal of "protecting, promoting and developing the natural resources...and for protecting the watershed resource of the City" and mandated the Conservation Commission, in conjunction with the City Planning Board, to prepare "a conservation and open space plan" as the major objective in achieving this goal, noting that the plan shall be based "on the concept of multiple use of natural resources and open space".
  • Water Quality Goal Technical Memo

    Water Quality Goal Technical Memo

    Squam Lakes Watershed Plan Water quality goal technical memo Funding for this project was provided in part by a Watershed Assistance Grant from the NH Department of Environmental Services with Clean Water Act Section 319 funds from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. September 2019 Squam Lakes Watershed Plan Water Quality Goal Memo Purpose: This report summarizes the steps taken to determine a water quality goal for Squam Lake and Little Squam Lake for the Squam Lakes Watershed Management Plan. Partners, collaborators, and stakeholders worked together to review existing data and water quality model predictions to determine an in-lake water quality goal. The goal will be used to measure the success of the watershed management plan recommendations. Site Description The Squam Lakes Watershed (Figure 1), located in central New Hampshire, covers 36,644 acres. At the heart of the watershed is Squam Lake (6,762 acres) and Little Squam Lake (408 acres). The watershed is 20% open water. Of the land area, 85% is forested. There is minimal development in the Squam Lakes Watershed and along the shores of the Squam Lakes; less than 3% of the watershed is considered low density development, while high and medium density development are less than 0.1% of the total watershed area. There are 34 tributaries for the Squam River and Lakes. Water flows generally from east to west, from Squam Lake, through the Squam Channel, into Little Squam Lake, and through two miles of the Squam River until the lake impoundment in Ashland. Ultimately, the Squam River drains into the Pemigewasset River in Ashland.

    4 Environmental Consequences and Identification of Mitigation Measures 4.1 Introduction This section describes the environmental consequences or impacts of the Proposed Action and provides a brief description of the existing or baseline conditions. Where impacts could not be avoided with the Proposed Action, measures to mitigate for the project’s impacts are described. 4.2 Transportation Evaluation 4.2.1 Existing Traffic and Travel Characteristics A data collection program was conducted during the months of November and December of 2001 to determine the base traffic and travel characteristics within the NH 125 study area. These inventories include the collection of daily and weekday peak period traffic volumes and turning movement counts, and a review of seasonal, daily, and hourly traffic volume trends. In addition, vehicle crash statistics were compiled and reviewed. Traffic counts were conducted at key locations along NH 125 and at eleven study area intersections. Table 4.2-1 summarizes the automatic traffic recorder counts that were conducted along NH 125. As shown in the table, traffic volumes along the corridor vary from approximately 23,000 vehicles per day (vpd), north of East Road in Plaistow to approximately 12,400 vpd, north of Old Coach Road in Kingston. The percentage of daily traffic occurring during the weekday morning and evening peak hour ranges from approximately 6 to 9 percent. The heavier volumes of traffic are predominantly southbound in the morning and northbound in the evening. Nh-bed\proj\51272\docs\reports\ EA\EA
