Hazard Mitigation Updates
|
|
Nashua Regional Planning Commission is assisting the Town of Brookline and the Town of Pelham with updating their Hazard Mitigation Plans. The updates will examine changes in development and mitigation priorities and will address natural hazards in the towns, previous occurrences of the hazards, the probability of future evets, and the vulnerability of critical facilities to these hazards. The Plans will conclude by identifying and prioritizing mitigation actions to reduce Brookline’s vulnerability to natural hazards. Any questions or comments regarding these updates can be directed to Payton Hoyt, Regional Planner.

Project Solicitation

In June, NRPC began the process of soliciting new projects from our municipalities for potential inclusion in the State Ten Year Transportation Improvement Plan (TYP) for the FY 2025 to 2034 period.
We received 18 project proposals from 6 NRPC communities. At the September TTAC meeting, communities gave presentations on their project submissions. The Scoring Subcommittee reviewed and ranked the projects according to set criteria. Then TTAC members voted in October to approve the list of projects to be sent to NH DOT.

2022 EPA Clean Watersheds Needs Survey
|
|
Help bring funding to New Hampshire for stormwater management! The Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) 2022 Clean Watersheds Needs Survey (CWNS) assesses the capital investment needed to meet the water quality goals of the Clean Water Act. EPA uses the survey results to allocate money to the states through grant and loan programs. This is an opportunity to showcase what significant need there is in New Hampshire for funding stormwater infrastructure and program management! In addition to CWNS, the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services (NHDES) is leveraging the opportunity to collect additional non-CWNS eligible needs.
Data are being collected by Comprehensive Environmental, Inc. on behalf of NHDES Watershed Management Bureau. (CWNS Wastewater data are being collected separately through the NHDES Engineering Wastewater Bureau.) The survey deadline is December 2nd, 2022. To participate and for more information, please visit the NHDES New Hampshire State Stormwater Needs Survey page.
