• Camden County to Conduct Overnight Mosquito Spraying Thurs (snjtoday.com) — Overnight mosquito spraying is scheduled for early Thursday, Aug. 6, on numerous Gloucester City streets including Hickman, Highland, Market, and Northmont, as part of a wider Camden County effort. Residents are also urged to dump standing water around their homes to help reduce mosquito breeding and support the county’s control program. 
• Hanwha vs. Holt: How New Jersey lost a shipyard (inquirer.com) — A Gloucester City-based port operator, Holt Logistics, is at the center of a high-stakes fight over how New Jersey’s Paulsboro Marine Terminal should be used, blocking a proposed Hanwha shipbuilding project backed by government officials. The dispute could shift major Navy-related investment and jobs away from the Delaware River region, while Holt pushes to prioritize container and bulk shipping over large-scale manufacturing at the state-funded site.
