If you value paddling on the various VT lakes and ponds you might consider attending this Public Meeting on Proposed Rules for Wake Boat use on VT lakes, either in person in Greensboro at the Highland Center for the Arts or on Zoom. A link to attend and comment by video is available at dec.vermont.gov/event/public-meeting-provide-update-proposed-draft-wake-boat-rules online.
Locally Waterbury reservoir will be impacted depending on the rulemaking.
