Re: | Use of Public Waters: Proposed Rules for Holland Pond |
On June 17, 2008, the Water Resources Panel of the Natural Resources Board filed with the Office of Vermont Secretary of State proposed Use of Public Waters Rules for Holland Pond. The rules were filed in response to a petition filed by Gary Leavens.
The rules propose:
a. to prohibit the use of personal watercraft; and
b. to prohibit the operation of vessels powered by a motor in such a manner as to cause a disturbing wake.
On July 16, 2008, the Panel received a letter from Mr. Leavens, asking that his petition be withdrawn.
On July 22, 2008, the Panel met to discuss the July 16 request and voted to withdraw the proposed rules.
Therefore, as a result of the Panel's vote:
- The Panel withdraws the proposed Use of Public Waters Rules for Holland Pond.
- The hearing on the proposed Use of Public Waters Rules for Holland Pond, scheduled for July 31, 2008 in Holland, Vermont, is cancelled [sic]
