Cool Need Stickers...

2) Nearly everything sold has a California tag that reads, "This product is made from chemicals that may cause cancer".

Annoying, but NH could pass a law requiring a large sticker be placed on fertilizers sold in NH--warning that employment near lakeshores is environmentally unsafe.

3) While they are at it, require a large-font printing of relevant and unique NH laws be placed on the back of all PFDs (life preservers) sold in NH. It could catch on with other states.

Maybe such an alert could convey the laws violated to a banana-yellow oversized ocean-racer who bombed both ways through the four miles of dense boat traffic in Winter Harbor on Sunday?

That would require people to read the label and most wouldn't bother.....we live in the instant gratification world now people grab what they need and move on. If there's a label with warnings on it and the store doesn't have the correct alternative you know what's being grabbed. Sounds negative but there are alot folks that don't really care.

Did you hear the exact location of the cyanobacteria present before the 4th on Tuftonboro Neck and Winter Harbor?

Arrow Site From Other Cyanobacteria Thread...

This site shows the huge area--including Rattlesnake Island--affected on the "quiet side" of Lake Winnipesaukee:

Alton Bay is also an "area of concern".
