Project Plan for Recreation Resources Development. North Springfield Lake, Springfield and Weathersfield, Vermont.

Abstract

The intent of this Project Plan is to make a comprehensive review of the Corps of Engineers' role in providing the type of outdoor recreational opportunities that enhance fish and wildlife resources, preserve the scenic attractiveness of the reservoir area, and are compatible with the original flood control objectives of the project. The recommended plan of future development includes relocation of the boat ramp on North Springfield Lake, improvements to the existing boat ramp and access road on Stoughton Pond, expansion of the multiuse trail system, provision of sanitation facilities and drinking water near the Springweather Nature Area to serve the many trail users and revegetation of areas of bank slumpage. Existing fish and wildlife management programs will continue. (Author)
