Lake Host documenting personal info?

NH LAKES ASSOCIATION · 08-13-2010, 10:48 AM

No. A Lake Host has not been, nor will ever be, trained to record a bow number if asked not to by a boater.

NH LAKES does not enter bow numbers into any computer database and we don't use it for other purposes. With that said, if a Lake Host believes that a crime has been committed against him/her at a boat ramp, they may or may not on their own accord, chose to report the bow number to the authorities so that the authorities can do whatever investigation they deem is necessary to resolve the issue.

Bow numbers are found only on the original written hard copies of Lake Host boater survey data sheets that are forwarded from local lake hosting groups to NH LAKES headquarters. These data sheets are kept in a secure location where they are shredded according to our data retention policy, which is five years.

For those of you who are interested in learning more, please feel free to contact NH LAKES at 603-226-0299. In addition, you are most welcome to attend an official 2011 Lake Host training sesison to learn more. Training session dates will be posted on our website in February 2011.
