Which does more harm? After lurking on this site for a few years I see the same group of people complaining about the same old things year after year. After having a camp on north Bear I would say leaking septic's are a far more serious problem to water quality than boat wakes,-speed or even wind driven wave action. How is it that the state inspects every cruiser type boat for proper tankage and makes sure that no water goes overboard, but yet does not consider the effects of ageing, misdesigned, or non existent all together septic systems less then 100 feet from our pristine lake?
Maybe this subject is taboo?
