Specifications include, but are not limited to: This project addresses erosion, sedimentation and nutrient loading at three sites within the Lake Sunapee Watershed. The proposed BMPs at two sites will also capture winter sanding material that is conveyed during spring melt not collected by street sweeping/cleaning machines. The result of having these proposed BMPs implemented will be the reduction of turbidity and available phosphorus and other nutrients within the two streams and lake helping prevent a further decline in water quality. In addition, stabilizing stream banks at two sites (Beck and Davis Hill Brooks) will likely improve conditions necessary for the survival and reproduction of fish species and benthic macroinvertebrates.
