LFSWS will soon be seeking a consultant to do a Recreational Needs Assessment related to recreational use of the Farmington River and Salmon Brook. We are trying to determine how the Wild & Scenic Committee might help ensure safe, river-friendly recreation. The work will involve working closely with each of the nine towns, recreational users and other groups to understand their concerns and to ascertain whether or not our group can help address them.
