American Whitewater (AW) along with its affiliate club organizations the Merrimack Valley
Paddlers (MVP) and New Hampshire Appalachian Mountain Club (NHAMC) are requesting a new lake
level management plan to enhance downstream recreation on the Winnipesaukee River near Franklin
New Hampshire. A panel consisting of representatives from the
Lakes region was set up to look into and recommend changes to the level management of Lake
Winnipesaukee and associated lakes. The impetus for this has been the flooding over the last
couple years with "no wake" rules being instituted, access under bridges, etc.
