The Vermont Department of Environmental Conservation Watershed Management Division is offering a series of information sessions on Lake Encroachment and Shoreland Permitting as it relates to the Shoreland Protection Act in the TRORC Region.
The Shoreland Protection Act (Chapter 49A of Title 10 §1441 et seq.) establishes a new state regulation for guiding shoreland development. The intent of the Act is to prevent degradation of water quality in lakes, preserve habitat and natural stability of shorelines, and maintain the economic benefits of lakes and their shorelands by defining standards for the creation of impervious surface and cleared area in shorelands.
This year’s “Getting Ahead of the Future” planning conference is to take place in Saratoga Springs, NY. For further information, please visit the APA NE planning conference website.

TRORC is working with the Public Service Department and the Vermont Energy Investment Corporation (VEIC) to develop a plan based on Vermont’s energy goal of obtaining 90% of its energy across all sectors – transportation, space heating and cooling, and electricity – from renewable sources by 2050.
TRORC will be holding two initial meetings in different parts of our region to present background information on the project, discuss analysis of renewable energy potential in our region, and solicit public input on the siting of new renewable energy projects.
