Includes the town’s network of streams and rivers and immediately adjacent valley bottoms, floodplains, and riparian areas. These areas were identified by state ecologists and biologists during the Vermont Conservation Design as they are critical to natural stream, river, and floodplains processes, contribute to broader ecological connectivity across the landscape, and provide important wildlife and plant habitat. Surface waters and riparian areas were prioritized based on land cover and land use. Highest Priority: All non-developed land within the network of surface waters and immediately adjacent valley bottoms. Riparian vegetation and forest cover in these areas help to protect and buffer surface water quality, condition, and function.
Priority: All developed land within the network of surface waters and immediately adjacent valley bottoms. For more information about surface waters and riparian areas, visit the Vermont Conservation Design webpage: https://vtfishandwildlife.com/conserve/vermont-conservation-design. |
