Project Summary:

Upper Valley Lake Sunapee Regional Planning Commission (UVLSRPC) worked with the Cornish Conservation Commission to publish a Natural Resources Inventory, updating the original 1976 inventory.

The Commission developed a series of maps of the vital natural resources in Cornish, NH, and developed a basic inventory of readily available information on natural resources. The Commission also developed a cooccurrence analysis that identified areas where several natural resources overlap.

The Cornish Conservation Commission worked in subcommittees to review the report and added local information to improve and expand the inventory. The Conservation Commission also developed an action plan to promote land conservation and stewardship in town.

The Natural Resources Inventory and associated maps are available for viewing online and downloading - please use the links on the sidebar to access these documents.
