Home Page Welcome to the State of New Hampshire Department of Safety James H. Hayes Safety Building 10 Hazen Drive Concord, NH 03305 TDD Access: Relay NH 1-800-735-2964 Mission Statement The New Hampshire Department of Safety was established by the legislature in 1961 and consisted of three Divisions: Motor Vehicles, State Police, and Safety Services. In 1987, under the leadership of Commissioner Richard M. Flynn, the Department of Safety was restructured. The change resulted in the addition of two Divisions and two Bureaus: the Division of Enforcement and the Division of Administration; the Bureau of Hearings and the Bureau of Fire Safety. On January 1, 1989, the Bureau of Common Carriers was transferred from the Department of Transportation and assigned to the Department of Safety. A sixth division was added on July 1, 1989, the Division of Fire Service which consisted of the Bureau of Fire Safety, Bureau of Fire Standards and Training, and the Fire Standards and Training Commission. Five years after being formed, the Division of Fire Service was restructured into two separate Divisions, effective August 1, 1994, the Divisions of Fire Standards and Training and Fire Safety.

Boating the Forks of the American River This guide is presented to help boaters plan trips on the three Forks of the American River. Conditions described here have been updated for the 1998 season but are subject to change. Boaters should check field conditions and verify current regulations. LOCATION The Forks of the American River described here are selected reaches of the North, Middle and South Forks in Placer and El Dorado Counties in California. Nearby communities include Auburn, Colfax, Foresthill, Greenwood, Coloma, and Placerville. Jump To: Safety Regulations Outfitters Contacts River boating information for: North Fork American River Middle Fork American River South Fork American River SAFETY The safety precautions which apply to white water boating on other rivers also apply to the Forks of the American. Wear life jackets, don¼t boat while intoxicated, and scout potential problem areas. Further, treat the rivers with the respect due their powerful natural forces. Such common sense will avoid most problems. Geology on the South Fork: Gunsight Rock Pay particular attention to flow volumes. Flows either too high or too low can cause problems for the boater. For example, high flows may carry boats into trees which trap and hold them underwater. Low water may be rocky and cause excessive delays. The best flows are somewhere in between, and are subjectively determined according to the type of craft and the skills and preferences of the boater. The flow volumes suggested here have been run by experienced boaters who consider them good, yet the flows listed are not intended to suggest objective limits to safe boating. Further, flows can change quickly, especially on the Middle and South Forks where releases from dams change throughout the day for hydropower generation.
