I maintain 30 mooring balls for a condo association on Lake Winnisquam. It's becoming a full time job as every year the state demand more and more information. This year the state says we only have room for 15 mooring balls and that the boats can't be more than 18 feet! The first time were told in 40 years!

I just don't believe that we have to resubmit deeds, registrations etc. every year. The state should have this on file and reuse it. As for registration, they can access the DMV database for renewal.

This year we had to pay to have our mooring field drawn up and resubmitted, but I was not sure if that was to maintain the 5 year work permitt or if they required it, i am pretty sure the state wanted it again for the mooring registrations though, again not that sure, but it is getting pretty ridiculous

The "Application for an Individual Mooring Permit Renewal" that we have been submitting every five years specifies that it is for four or fewer moorings, so the requirements for a mooring field are likely different. On the individual mooring application, a copy of the deed must be submitted only if there has been a change during the previous 5 years. The application does state that the current registration for all boats used at the property must be submitted with the application.

If you have a problem with a mooring permit application you should call and talk to the woman in charge. She is very helpful and can review the application and clue you in on what is needed. She does not approve the permits herself, but can can give you an idea about what will fly and what will not.
