CRIME NEWS

  • Nearly 200 dams in New Hampshire are being closely watched because a failure could cause serious harm. The Pittsfield Mill Dam—an old dam that may not hold up against a 1,000-year flood—is checked every two years along with 180 others while lawmakers raise fees to pay for repairs.  WMUR

GOVERNMENT NEWS

  • A federal judge questioned New Hampshire’s anti-DEI law signed by Gov. Ayotte in June—saying that extending the ban to public schools and state agencies without an appeal process may force districts to lose funding.
