  • Annual Report for the Town of Bristol, New
    * NH 352 o 07 B86 1969 ... 1511811 w wf— 4 i ^^ u a tr ex a ex 1-4 ^ ^ ^ t BRISTOL'S SESQUICENTENNIAL CELEBRATION 1969 was the year of Bristol's 150th birthday. The town approved funds for the sesquicentennial committee to pro- gram the special affair. In order to obtain maximum partici- pation, the event was held on the July 4th weekend. Leading off the activities was a 50 unit parade following the theme of "Bristol Prior 1900." Over 7000 people lined the square and streets to view the spectacular. First place went to the Bristol Historical Society with their replica overshot waterwheel running a vertical saw. Immediately following the parade, the crowd gathered at Kelley park to witness precision drill movements by both the Mariners, a drum and bugle corp from Rollingsford, N.H. and the Diamond Saddlemates Mounted Drill team from Concord, N.H. The climax came with demonstrations by the Bristol Fire Department of their 1860 handtub pumper in contrast to their modern firefighting equipment. The afternoon saw a baseball game between the Not-So- Ancients and the Teenagers. The old-timers won 17-4. That evening everyone enjoyed the annual Lions' carnival. A special treat was given the teenagers with two big name bands playing at the high school auditorium. The nightly activities were capped with the largest fireworks display ever seen in Bristol. Saturday evening a real old-fashioned public supper was held at the Community Center. All the ladies in Bristol cooked something. The crowd was overflowing and many were turned away. Later in the evening, adults danced quiet- ly at the town hall to bring to a close the gala festivities.

  • Official List of Public Waters
    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).

  • 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.

  • Lake Trout Salvelinus Namaycush
    Appendix A: Fish Lake Trout Salvelinus namaycush Federal Listing State Listing Global Rank State Rank S5 High Regional Status Photo by NHFG Justification (Reason for Concern in NH) Native populations of lake trout were originally restricted to 6 water bodies in New Hampshire, though stocking success has resulted in self‐sustaining populations in several other water bodies (Scarola 1987). Lake trout face several habitat and non‐habitat related threats. Anthropogenic eutrophication decreases dissolved oxygen at depths where trout take refuge from summer heat (Kelso et al. 1996). Thus, the species may be an indicator for the water quality of oligotrophic lakes (Halliwell et al. 2001). A healthy population of forage fish is important for the persistence of lake trout in a given lake. The introduction of nonindigenous fish may alter the food web in a lake ecosystem, reducing the amount of prey available to lake trout (Pazzia et al. 2002). Lake trout were rated second and sixth, respectively, for species preference in an ice fishing and an open‐water angler survey (Duda and Young 1996). Lake trout populations, especially low density, self‐sustaining populations, have been found to be vulnerable to angling pressure (Towne 1959). As a coldwater species, lake trout are vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, especially in smaller waterbodies with a marginal supply of coldwater habitat (Thill 2014). Distribution Lake trout are widely distributed throughout northern North America including much of Canada (with the exception of some Hudson Bay Drainages), Alaska, the Great Lakes Region, the northwestern states, and northern New England. Populations are found in several oligotrophic waterbodies in New Hampshire.
