The LRAC is a permanent citizens' committee created through the NH Rivers Management and Protection Program for the State-protected segment of the Lamprey River in Lee and Durham. Lee and Durham each have five members who are appointed for three-year terms. Representatives from Newmarket and Epping are serving as volunteers for a federal Wild and Scenic study of the Lamprey River in the four towns.

Preparation of this Plan was supported by funding and staff from the National Park Service and the NH Department of Environmental Services.
