    Commonwealth of Massachusetts Jack Buckley, Director June 16, 2015 Eammon Coughlin, Planner Berkshire Regional Planning Commission 1 Fenn Street, Suite 201 Pittsfield, MA 01201 Re: Open Space Plan; 98-3310 Town of Lee Dear Mr. Coughlin: Thank you for contacting the Natural Heritage and Endangered Species Program (NHESP) regarding the update for the Open Space and Recreation Plan for the Town of Lee. A letter was previously prepared for Lee in 1998 and this serves as an update to that letter. Enclosed is information on the rare species, priority natural communities, vernal pools, and other aspects of biodiversity that we have documented in Lee. The town is encouraged to include this letter, species list, appropriate maps, and the BioMap2 town report in the Open Space and Recreation Plan. Based on the BioMap2 analysis and additional information discussed below, NHESP recommends land protection in the BioMap2 cores or protecting lands adjacent to existing conservation land – or, best, a combination of both when feasible. All of the areas discussed below are important for biodiversity protection in Lee. Land adjacent to the Cold Water Fisheries is also important Enclosed is a list of rare species and natural communities known to occur or have occurred in Lee. This list and the list in BioMap2 differ because this list and discussion include all of the uncommon aspects of biodiversity in Lee that NHESP has documented and BioMap2 focused on occurrences with state-wide significance and included non-MESA listed species of conservation interest from the State Wildlife Action Plan. In addition, the NHESP database is constantly updated and the enclosed list may include species of conservation interest identified in town since BioMap2 was produced in 2010.

The Chair will revise the document and send out via email. She also provided a draft memo to BOS for transmittal of the proposal. Fresh Water Pond Data: Carolyn and Judy used Excel spreadsheets to input and display pond data from 16 ponds. These are being sent to Ed Eichner, Water Scientist, for his work with the Freshwater Ponds Management Planning Work Group. He will combine this data with the results of the chemical analyses done by SMAST and other labs to give an analysis of the health of each pond. This data will be used to prioritize ponds for future individual management plans. Carolyn led a discussion of the unusual factors that can affect individual ponds which included large populations of gulls and ducks being attracted to Crystal lake in the past, very cold groundwater in Boland Pond, and the growth of plants within ponds. Carol remarked that she had seen a Glacier Bay Presentation with excellent graphics that she thought might be useful for the display of pond data.
