New Hampshire SB527 amends state law to ensure state agencies provide written notice to municipalities and local river management advisory committees regarding pending applications for permits, licenses, or actions affecting land use, water quality, business operations, or municipal services. The bill specifies that applicants for public infrastructure projects must verify that municipalities and relevant river committees have been notified by certified mail. It also allows for electronic mail notice unless the municipality objects, in which case first-class mail must be used.
