Let's see...
Director Barrett first stated that he couldn't enforce a speed limit.
Then, under pressure, he said he would.
Then, under pressure, he embraces (ex) Commissioner Flynn's last-minute reprieve involving just two zones of questionable location. (And announces their locations!)
Then he says "It's complicated".
Then he says "We can't do it", "hardly anybody's speeding anyway", and dilutes enforcement (and the study) by conducting tests in some unauthorized "six other areas".
Now it's back to "it's complicated".

Although enforcement appears more sweeping among a shrinking boating population, this particular Director doesn't have any fire left.
