Water Resources in the Mount
Ascutney Region
Connecticut River Management
Plan
2009 -
This new Water Resources plan is an
expansion and update of the Water Quality section of the
1997 Connecticut River Corridor Management Plan. The result
of three years of discussion and consensus by a diverse
group of citizens representing their riverfront towns, the
plan fulfills the requirements of the New Hampshire Rivers
Management and Protection Act, RSA 483. It explores water
and sediment quality, fish tissue toxins, instream flow and
flood management, dams, groundwater issues, point and
nonpoint pollution sources, erosion, the effects of land use
on water quality, and the condition of tributaries, among
other topics. The plan offers a valuable guide to local
officials and landowners intent upon improving the condition
of the Connecticut and other local waters.
