North Hampton – Little River Restoration Project: BMP Installation Highlights

Kudos to the Town of North Hampton DPW, the North Hampton Conservation Commission, and project consultant FB Environmental for installing several stormwater management practices designed to address runoff and erosion problems affecting the Little River in North Hampton.

The project team has been working for many years to improve the river’s water quality. They’ve done an excellent job and we congratulate them for their persistence and dedication to clean water.

FB Environmental staff and members of the North Hampton Conservation Commission install stream buffer plantings at the project site:
