Hello. I'm Beth Carroll. Welcome to New Hampshire Outlook. Many small communities across the country are scrambling to meet Phase-2 guidlines of the Clean Water Act. So, UNH hydrologists Tom Ballestero and Rob Roseen created the UNH Stormwater Center. It's the only facility of its kind in the country dedicated to providing research to help these communities improve their stormwater management systems -- to clean and capture stormwater and return it to the underground reserviors rather than polluting nearby waterways. Outlook's Chip Neal has the story. |

The UNH Stormwater Center is funded by federal grants which should keep them going for another year or two. |

A warning to consumers from the state: Beware of water-damaged cars flooding the used-car market. Hurricanes Katrina and Rita -- left behind thousands of flood-damaged cars. Those water-logged lemons could make their way to a used car lot near you. It's estimated that up to a-half million vehicles were severely damaged in the hurricanes. They should all be scrapped -- but, experience tells us -- many will be returned to the road cleaned up by unscrupulous sellers and sold to unsuspecting consumers -- possibly in NH. How do you avoid getting taken? Joining me from Concord to talk about that: Assistant Attorney General Connie Stratton. Q CONNIE: How real a concern is it that these flood-damaged cars will make their way to NH??? Q Cars might look fine on the outside --but, are 'ROTTING" from the inside out. Let me go thru the Flood damage check list your office gave out: 1 check inside the trunk for evidence of moisture 2 check engine for rust, silt, or grass 3 give vehicle a smell-test.inside & out 4 check inside glove boxes where water may have been trapped 5 check interior for signs of mis-matched items 6 test all electrical components Q Other TELL-TALE signs to look for?? water stains anywhere -- recently shampooed carpets, or rust and defects in door speakers that may have been submerged. ** Q CONNIE: What about cars from ALSTEAD that might have been submerged in flood waters. Should we be concerned about cars from that area as well???? Q If you're thinking of BUYING vehicle in the next few months -- There is a FREE way to check a vehicle's IDENTIFICATION numbers -- to see if its been affected the Hurricanes. ** How does that work??? ** The LINK is on our web site. Q How important is it to get a vehicle's TITLE HISTORY? Tells where its been and what its been thru. Some dealers off it for free. Title on flood-damaged cars should read SALVAGE. carfax.com/flood.tells if vehicle was registered in FEMA disaster area Q How can you safeguard against a car being re-built and disguised as ordinary car with a clean title.???? Be wary if car doesn't have TITLE?? Q What RECOURSE do you have in NH -- if you've fallen victim to one of these CARS???' Q Would NH's LEMON Law apply -- to water-logged, flood-damaged cars??? Q As always have a professional INSPECT the vehicle. Take it to a trusted mechanic. Taking a little extra time to check out a USED car BEFORE YOU BUY. It can save you a great deal of money in the long run. CONNIE STRATTON.THANK YOU. |

Thursday November 17: We did the show early. And Liz was the AD. She did a great job for her first time. It is never easy with so many graphics in the show. We didn't have any major problems except that Camera 3 has been having troubles pedding up and down and locking into place. So we switched out the camera for cam 2. Larry is going to look at the camera tomorrow afternoon. If it keeps sticking, I will switch out the camera for camera 1 to see if that helps. I would rather not because I am used to Beth being on Camera 3. Also there was silence on parts of Chips tape. We are still not sure if it was meant to be that way or it was the audio board that caused that. It wasn't horrible which is why I think that is the way Chip wanted it to be. |
