1) A few years ago, a bigger bomb went off north of Wolfeboro: I asked my firewood provider why this new delivery was cheaper than last year's delivery.
He said he'd just cleared 500 acres off Rt. 28! 
2) Also, there's money in "slash": I once asked for a handy 6' length of hardwood rather than his having to drag it uphill to the chipper.
My request was declined—you'd think I'd asked for gold! 
3) I'd previously promised a photo of a similar "
bomb" that had cleared an entire mountainside in Pennsylvania: in the interim, the town of Hazelton had erected a huge roadside barrier!
4) As to Meredith, I've never seen so many logging trucks as those operating in the Meredith/Center Harbor area: fully loaded—plus towing a fully-loaded trailer—
they're a roadway bomb in themselves!
Their speeds would suggest they're "getting away" with something—and just maybe, they are.
5) My cottage of 50+ years abuts a recently-foreclosed development. The good news (for me) was that the abutting airport runway started out without any trees!
Forest abutting the runway—which the developer promised was "
to be preserved in perpetuity"—is, however, being cut away.
How else are you going to get a view of the forests without cutting down the trees?

Bottom line?
I don't think
anyone's house can be "far enough away".
