Remember NH is stricter than most states, like all states you cannot dump "black" water from toilets. But here you cannot dump "gray" water from showers and sinks either. Gray water usually exits above water. If you see dirty or soapy water exiting a boat call the DES or MP.
NH boats must not discharge gray water.

JRC is absolutely correct, and gray water discharge is one of the least understood, and all to common, inland water pollution violations.
