Drought Contingency Plan, Otter Brook Lake, Keene, New Hampshire; Connecticut River Basin, Ashvelot Watershed.

Abstract

It has been determined that a portion of the existing storage at Otter Brook could be used for water storage. The water could temporarily be stored to an elevation of 708 ft. Project would provide approximately 1,300 acre-feet (425 million gallons) of storage for water. The water is basically good quality but has high levels of color and metals which will have to be removed for public water supply use. Suitable for fire-fighting, irrigation or some industrial process.
