N.H. Fish and Game -- Strategic Plan
The following narrative is a vision of where the New Hampshire
Fish and Game Department would like to be in the year 2010. It
does not attempt to describe where we are today; it looks at where
we want to be 5 years from now.
The State of New Hampshire is endowed with scenic beauty and abundant
natural resources, which have shaped who we are today and will
strongly influence who we will be in future decades. The presence
of fish, wildlife and marine resources is intricately linked
to our quality of life -- and to our identity as citizens of
New Hampshire.
The New Hampshire Fish and Game Department is recognized by the
public as a leader in conservation, and constantly strives to be
one of the most effective fish, wildlife and marine resource agencies
in the country. The Department derives its strength and direction
from its employees, commissioners and volunteers; and from the
citizens of New Hampshire, who entrust us with the responsibility
of fish, wildlife and marine resource management and protection.
Our work sustains healthy and diverse populations of fish and
wildlife; as well as protecting and enhancing the habitats they
depend on for survival. We accomplish this through sound scientific
research, habitat and species management and protection, fair and
judicious enforcement of conservation laws, a range of educational
programs for all ages, and the participation and support of the
public.
We provide excellent programs and opportunities for public use
and enjoyment of New Hampshire's fish, wildlife and marine resources.
We help all citizens develop a strong conservation ethic so that
they become good stewards of these resources and their habitats.
