"Save Lake Winnipesaukee - Winni Who?"
project has
made it to the next level. We are in the top 50 and have 2 weeks to try and make it to the top 25!!
By now you may have seen or heard about the American Express Members Project commercial on television or the internet. An unknown actor walks by a group of Hollywood celebrities and identifies water quality on Lake Winnipesaukee as an important environmental priority. The Lake Winnipesaukee Watershed Association and its planning partners couldn’t agree more. We already have a proposal that needs funding, and with your help we can do something about it. To achieve this we need participation from as many people as possible. The winning projects will be the result of popular voting on the Internet. And time is of the essence! Through July 15, 2007 AMEX card members need to visit the
Members Project website, www.membersproject.com and find project ID# 4874, Save Winnipesaukee! (Winni-Who?). Please spread the word and vote by the July 15 deadline to Keep Winnipesaukee Clean!
2006 Tributary Monitoring in the Winnipesaukee Watershed - Final Report
The final report of the tributary study conducted by the Lake Winnipesaukee Watershed Association for the past two years on eleven tributaries feeding into Lake Winnipesaukee has been completed. This study was funded in part by a Watershed Assistance Grant from the NH Department of Environmental Services with Clean Water Act Section 319 funds from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. The report can be downloaded along with the annual reports from the NH Dept. of Environmental Services Volunteer River Assessment Program (VRAP) and data from the individual streams.

·Interested in helping form a Citizen Volunteer Monitoring Group?
The grant that LWWA received from NHDES to conduct sampling of the water quality of eleven major tributaries feeding into Lake Winnipesaukee ended June 30, 2006. LWWA sampled these tributaries for two seasons and would like to see the monitoring continue in order to gain long term trend data. The Meredith and Wolfeboro Conservation Commissions have taken on the responsibility of continuing the water sampling of Hawkins Brook in Meredith, and the Smith River in Wolfeboro. The Gilford Conservation Commission is planning on purchasing a water quality kit in 2007 and continuing the monitoring of Gunstock Brook as well as other significant streams in towns. If you are a resident of these towns and are interested in assisting, please contact the conservation commission. A monitoring program is needed in Moultonboro, Tuftonboro, and Alton, so if you reside in these towns and would like to be on a water quality monitoring team, please contact your local conservation commission and express an interest.
