| Gregg Bioterrorism Return to index of stories... |
Senator Judd Gregg is backing a bill that would pay most of New Hampshire's costs to prepare for a bioterrorism attack. The amendment to a Defense appropriations bill would increase the country's stockpile of vaccines and medicines as well as regulate biological agents. It would also give grants to state and local public health agencies. Gregg says if passed, the bill would pay about five million dollars of the estimated eight million dollars it will cost to bring New Hampshire's bioterrorism response system up to speed. |

Weare and Henniker school officials are working to develop a bullying and harassment policy that will serve as a model for school districts across New Hampshire. The schools are using 15 thousand dollars from the state and help from New England College to develop the model. Administrators will document the extent of physical and verbal violence and other acts of intolerance. The information will be used to develop policy and train school staff. A parent's complaint last year about harassment prompted the effort to improve how the schools handle bullying. |

| Sharing Transport Return to index of stories... |
Organizations that give rides to elderly, poor and disabled residents in Concord are working on a plan to pool their resources. Social service groups often buy vans to drive their own clients around. But that means some vans sit in parking lots much of the time, and those that are on the road are nearly empty. Concord Area Transit is organizing several agencies to improve service through cooperation. The goal is to have agencies share vehicles and drivers so that people could call one dispatch center to arrange a ride. AP-NY-12-10-01 0611EST |
