Conservation Commission Meeting

August 18, 2016

            The meeting of the Conservation Commission was called to order by John Bozak at the Martha Sawyer Library at 6:30 p.m. Those in attendance were: Ruth Gutman, George Main, Don Leuchs, Ed Cheever and Sandy Hutchinson.

            The Lebanon Festival is Saturday, August 20 so staffing for our tent was arranged.  Gully Oven flyers and maps of town-owned properties will be displayed along with information about Three Rivers Land Trust org.

            Don has found there are more town-owned properties than we originally thought and has been investigating these parcels.

            A meeting with the Acton CC has been scheduled for Sept. 20 to discuss abutting Hebo Hybo Road parcels; time and place is to be determined.

            The upcoming Woods October event was discussed; Gully Oven will be featured Sat., Oct. 1st.

            It was voted to contribute $50.00 to the VLMP (Volunteer Lakes Management Program) and training for European Niaad removal from Milton Three Ponds continues.

            The next meeting is September 20th.

            Respectfully submitted, Sandy Hutchinson

 

Addendum:   Also, there has been DASH (diver - assisted suction harvesting) taking place at NE Pond since the beginning of August. (Had a confirmation from Laurie Callahan.)
