The Warner River

In 2018, the Warner River was classified as a designated river, as defined by New Hampshire’s River Management and Protection Program, joining the Merrimack, Contoocook and sixteen other rivers of outstanding character. This designation requires the formation of a Local Advisory Committee (LAC) to ensure active participation by local residents and stakeholders.

The WRLAC is composed of volunteers representing a variety of interests from each of the communities along the main stem of the river corridor. The WRLAC is responsible for developing and implementing a River Corridor Management Plan which documents the river’s existing conditions and makes recommendations for how to protect the river and its many uses for generations to come.

​

The WRLAC meets on the 4th Wednesday (except November) every other month at 7:00 PM at the Pillsbury Free Library, Warner. Meetings are open to the public, and those interested in joining the Committee are invited to use the "Contact Us" button to indicate their interest. The 2026 meetings are January 28, March 25, May 27, July 22, September 23, and November 18.
