Bill Text

PAG LIN
  1  1    Section 1.  Section 462A.31, subsection 1, paragraph b,
  1  2 Code 2003, is amended to read as follows:
  1  3    b.  A motorboat equipped with any power unit mounted or
  1  4 carried aboard the vessel may be operated at a no-wake speed
  1  5 on all artificial lakes of more than one hundred acres in size
  1  6 under the custody of the department.  However, on lake
  1  7 Macbride, a motorboat with a power unit exceeding ten
  1  8 horsepower may be operated only when permitted by rule and the
  1  9 rule shall not authorize such use during the period beginning
  1 10 on the Friday before Memorial Day and ending on Labor Day
  1 11 inclusively.  This paragraph does not limit motorboat
  1 12 horsepower on natural lakes under the custody of the
  1 13 department or limit the department's authority to establish
  1 14 special speed zoning regulations.
  1 15    Sec. 2.  EFFECTIVE DATE.  This Act, being deemed of
  1 16 immediate importance, takes effect upon enactment.  
  1 17                           EXPLANATION
  1 18    This bill removes the prohibition from the Code that
  1 19 motorboats with power units exceeding 10 horsepower cannot be
  1 20 operated on lake Macbride except by rule of the natural
  1 21 resources department and never during the period from the
  1 22 Friday before Memorial Day to Labor Day.
  1 23    The bill allows motorboats to be operated on lake Macbride
  1 24 at all times with unrestricted horsepower at a no-wake speed
  1 25 unless the department establishes other special speed zoning
  1 26 regulations.
  1 27    The bill takes effect upon enactment.
