The dispute was settled in 2002 by the US Supreme Court in favor of Maine. ==Background== Seavey’s Island lies in the northern side of the Piscataqua River, between the town of Kittery, Maine and the city of Portsmouth, New Hampshire. The island was originally five separate islands which were conjoined between 1800 and 1866 in order to build a naval shipyard. The State of Maine asserts that the boundary between the states runs along the middle of the river to the south of Seavey’s Island, which places the island within Maine. The State of New Hampshire asserts a historical claim to ownership of the river up to the shoreline on the Maine side, which would place the island within New Hampshire.〔(The New York Times, June 30, 2000: “Supreme Court Roundup; Border Dispute Will Get a Hearing” )〕 The United States government owns the island, which is the site of the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard. For many years the US Navy regarded the shipyard as belonging to New Hampshire (whence the name ''Portsmouth Naval Shipyard'' after the city of Portsmouth, New Hampshire). Later the Navy adopted a neutral position in the dispute.〔 Maine imposes an income tax on workers at the shipyard, even those who live in New Hampshire. Moreover, aspects of the income tax are based on household income and result in larger payments due to the earnings of spouses who neither live nor work in Maine. New Hampshire contended that since the workers live in New Hampshire, paying taxes to Maine amounted to “taxation without representation.”〔(Northwestern University, Medill Journalism: “New Hampshire v. Maine”, by Dave Clark, Medill News Service )〕 Maine receives an estimated $4–6 million per year in taxes from the shipyard workers.〔〔(Portsmouth Herald “Taxation without Representation” )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Piscataqua River border dispute」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
