WATERSHED MANAGEMENT PLAN TO BE PRESENTED AUGUST 15
The Northwood Lake Watershed Association (NLWA) received a Watershed Assistance Grant for Water Quality Planning (604b) from the U.S. EPA through the NH Department of Environmental Services. Coupled with association funds, the NLWA has hired FB Environmental Associates (FBE) to develop a Watershed Management Plan (WMP) to help study the water quality and watershed of the lake and outline a course of action to improve the water quality and reduce the chance of harmful algal blooms.
A draft of the WMP will be presented at a public meeting on August 15th, 2026 at 2:00PM at the Lantern Light Camps Northwood NH.
