2 NH Lakes Some of the cleanest and clearest lakes in the country However: Many lakes are showing signs of stress Cyanobacteria blooms are becoming more prevalent Nutrients (phosphorus and nitrogen) play a large role UNH studies suggest as TP and TN increase so do toxins

13 Importance of Layered Vegetation Transpiration Evaporation Infiltration through forest duff Forest duff and soils act as a sponge Roots stabilize soils preventing erosion and allow plants to pump up water back into the atmosphere (transpiration)
14 High shrubs/grasses will also discourage geese from coming on shore
15 Trees, tall plants and shrubs can discourage invasive species from spreading by shading
16 Let s Change the Approach! Landscaping does not have to be the problem
17 Let s Change the Approach! Landscaping can be the solution
18 Dealing With Home-Site Runoff Potential Contributing Waters Sources From Off-site Roads, Neighboring Properties From Your Site Driveways, Boat ramps, Foot paths, Compacted surfaces, Patios Roof Line, Gutters, Sump Pumps Seeps
19 Assessment & Inventory Site Drawing Wet areas Seeps/Springs Paved Areas Compacted Areas Point Sources Culvets Drains Sumps Paths/Trails Concentrated Flows Flat Areas Sloped Areas Following the Flow
20 Dealing With Home-Site Runoff Diversion -away from steep areas into vegetated areas Interruption- break up the flow so it can t build up velocity Spread the flow over a flat vegetated area Increase groundwater recharge through infiltration Protect shore area with riparian buffer
