Abstract
Robinson Pond in Hudson, New Hampshire, is an important public resource that supports boating, swimming, and other recreational uses. Despite its value to the community, the site faces ongoing challenges related to water quality, erosion, and public access. Elevated phosphorus concentrations have contributed to eutrophication and cyanobacterial blooms, while stormwater runoff from unpaved parking areas has increased erosion near the boat launch. In addition, the existing boat launch and parking layout do not adequately support safe and efficient use of the site. This project evaluates improvements intended to reduce phosphorus loading in support of Total Maximum Daily Load requirements (TMDL), manage stormwater and limit further erosion, and enhance the safety and functionality of the boat launch, parking areas, and beach access. Together, these improvements aim to strengthen both the environmental condition and overall public usability of Robinson Pond.
