New OEP Web Site
May 8, 2004

The NH Office of Energy and Planning is pleased to announce the creation of a new website reflecting the merger of the former Office of State Planning and the Governor’s Office of Energy and Community Services. The two agencies, both under the Governor’s Office, were merged in 2003 as part of a state government reorganization effort.

There is a considerable amount of work yet to be done to migrate all of the documents and information from the old websites to the new one. Some links will go back to the old sites so we ask for your patience as we move forward to complete the project. The new site was developed in cooperation with the Office of Information Technology.

OEP is responsible for a wide variety of programs. This includes the NH Coastal Program and NH Estuaries Project, Conservation Lands Stewardship, Council on Resources and Development, various energy conservation programs, State Heating Oil and Propane Program, Fuel Assistance, NH Floodplain Management, Municipal and Regional Planning Assistance, Outdoor Recreation Planning Program, Refugee Program, Scenic and Cultural Byways Program, State Data Center and the Weatherization program.

MaryAnn Manoogian is the Director of the office and Jack Ruderman is Assistant Director. There are currently 22 employees at the Concord office (57 Regional Drive) and 10 at the Coastal Program/Estuaries office in Portsmouth (152 Court Street).
