The Bear Island NWZ is supposed to extend 150' north and south from the mail dock. In reality it extends about 400' south and 800' north of the mail dock.

If the northern part didn't extend 800' then it wouldn't make it to Pine Island, and boats could just drive around the NWZ.

I don't know how they screwed this up but 150' would never work. I wonder if they write it up as being small so they don't get a lot of resistance at the hearing.
