Community Serv. Obj. #1: White Mountain National Forest #1
OBJECTIVE STATEMENT:
To perform work on public lands to conserve, restore, and sustain natural habitats within various
ecosystems. To maintain, improve, and construct recreation facilities including camp sites, trails,
access points, etc. to benefit users of the National Forest System. To perform work that will improve
habitat for Threatened, Endangered, and Sensitive species and improve forest health through thinning
and restoration. To assist in restoring natural beauty in the national forests and assist in disaster
recovery efforts when requested.

the forest. This will include 10 wildlife monitoring sites, 15 acres of habitat improvement and
200 acres of headwater streams stocked with juvenile Atlantic salmon following guidelines set
forth by the project specialist, and completing projects in a time frame that would be sensitive
to the needs of individual species, but no later than October 1, 1995.
Utilize the "Forest as a Classroom" to provide environmental education to local elementary
schools, providing regionally approved environmental education to at least 300 students, by June

and local communities related to environmental education, natural resource protection or trail
maintenance/construction by November 1995.
2) What is the hoped for result of the activities described above?
That the projects will be completed in a timely and quality manner and that the recreation
facilities will be used extensively by the general public and forest users. That Threatened,

COMPONENTS OF OBJECTIVE STATEMENTS: Increase the number and types
of shellfish that are reared
at the Beals Island Regional Shellfish Hatchery in order to
increase demonstration farm programs for individuals and
communities.
1. What work will be done?
Culturing shellfish larvae and juveniles. Rearing microalgae.
Transplanting shellfish to the field and conducting a regular
sampling program with harvesters to assess effectiveness. Corps
members will interact directly with individual harvesters and
shellfish committee members at scheduled meetings as well as in the
field.
2. What is the hoped for result of the work/activities described
above?
That communities place more emphasis on shellfish management and
that more individuals begin to undertake clam farming as a viable
option for a coastal occupation.
3. How will you measure the quality of your product or impact of
your service?
By regular sampling in the transplant sites to determine survival
and growth of seeded shellfish. Also by comparing the number of
individuals and communities involved in the project at the
beginning and end of the AmeriCorps program.
4. By what standard will you gauge success?
By the number of animals reared. By the number of communities
involved in the program. By the number of clam farmers that are
actively growing shellfish at the end of the program.
5. How many individuals will receive the benefit of the work your
participants perform?
Potentially, more than 200. These include individual harvesters as
well as shellfish committee people. Indirectly, more will benefit
