Great Bay NERR seeks Newfields’ support for marsh restoration projects
Summary
Great Bay NERR reached out seeking advice and support for restoration at Chapman’s Landing Marsh (Stratham) and Lubberland Creek Preserve (Newmarket); the Commission agreed to support the effort and T. Rettburg will attend an April 16 site visit and planning day.
Lynn Baccaro of Great Bay NERR contacted the Newfields Conservation Commission seeking the Commission’s advice and support for two salt‑marsh restoration projects: Chapman’s Landing Marsh in Stratham and Lubberland Creek Preserve Marsh in Newmarket.
Baccaro requested input and asked whether Commission members would participate in a site visit and planning meeting scheduled for April 16. The Commission expressed willingness to support the projects; T. Rettburg said she will attend the April 16 marsh trips. J. Lent noted the Commission has been discussing subcommittees and suggested a marsh subcommittee could help coordinate volunteer and school involvement. Members discussed using funds to mail postcards to residents to raise awareness and said inviting Baccaro to present at a future meeting would be helpful.
No formal vote was recorded; the Commission indicated support in principle and identified staff and members to follow up on site visits and outreach.
