Finally tonight, State tourism officials are predicting a record number of visitors to the state this upcoming fourth of July holiday. which for many begins today. The Coast Guard reminds us the weekend around fourth of july is typically the busiest boating time of the year. They're warning boaters to be aware of weather conditions and avoid alcohol. And since it's nearly impossible to put on a life jacket in the water, Coast Guard officials say boaters should wear them at all times. |

Business AlliancesReturn to index of stories... |
-- A loose coalition of diverse business groups is forming to battle the Legislature's divide-and-conquer approach to New Hampshire's business taxes. The group, which has no name, is drawing together organizations that usually don't present a united front. They began meeting when it became clear lawmakers planned to hike business taxes to balance the state budget and pay for school aid. Dan McLeod of the New Hampshire Auto Dealers Association said the group first met in the spring with representatives from New Hampshire's largest businesses to its smallest retailers present. McLeod said the 15 or so organizations didn't find consensus on a solution to school funding, but eight signed a letter to Governor Jeanne Shaheen and legislative leaders opposing business tax increases and urging them at least to consider expanding gambling. |
Pease PortReturn to index of stories... |
The Pease Development Authority and the New Hampshire Port Authority become one this weekend. Legislation approved this week establishes a Division of Ports and Harbors within the Pease Development Authority. The ports board of directors would become an advisory board, which would be responsible for setting policy. The P-D-A could override any action of the port board or adopt rules that it objected with five affirmative votes of its seven members. |

- This afternoon will mark the end of an era in the Claremont area as the Eagle Times newspaper ends production after 87 years. The paper's managing editor says times have changed and most people now want their news at the start of their day, rather than the end of it. The paper was founded as a weekly in November 1834 and started daily publication in October 1914. |
