I personally would like to see these rules as a whole removed, as I believe they have become a safety net for land owners, and anywhere on the lake that becomes a popular anchoring location, seems to quickly end up a no Rafting zone a few years later...


Amen to this guy. People can we stop being so over sensitive, these rafting rules are getting out of hand. And honestly becoming dangerous for all. And why does everyone care let the Dive live try and succeed. It’s a great spot if you’ve been, they get a lot of harsh criticism from people on the forum and it isn’t fair to them. If you’ve spoke with the owners they are very nice people, and the lake needed something like this. I think the lake would be a better place with the rafting zones not in existence.

If you feel strongly on the SB 162 vote to exempt spud barges (the Dive) from rafting rules, you have to speak tonight. The committee is meeting for the last time tomorrow and its a speak now type of thing. If you email your thoughts to this email address it will go to all members. After tomorrow at 10 am, this will be decided.

Default Retained

The House Resources Committee voted yesterday to "Retain" SB162 for more study. It will stay in the committee with no further votes until they report in October. Retained bill reports will go to the Floor of the House in January 2020.

I am not worried about the Dive.... And personally I think it would be neat if the succeed, where many others have failed....

What I am worried about is bad legislation, that leaves to many loop holes. The No Rafting regulations are bad enough, but to add this exception creating loopholes will only make things worse.

Repeal the NRZ in its entirety, i would guess that those "loop holes" and at least a dozen other useless pieces of legislation would fall by the wayside as a result.
