It could also be
perfectly innocent anchoring producing the complaints:
One of my McMansion neighbors (with a five acre lawn) draws lake water through a long,
bright green, 4-inch plastic pipe from the deepest part of our local water. It is, at minimum, 200 yards long.
Between what the charts indicate the depth to be, and how far out the pipe is still visible from the surface, that pipe is lying on the bottom in between 20 to 40 feet of water. It's only because of its bright color that it contrasts so well against the depths. There are probably many others out there.
