I received the following today from a Governors Island resident. He only wrote me because he wanted to make sure Bizer updated its chart
Quote:
I just received a call from the state house regarding HB 188 amending the definition of headway speed. I was informed that the governor just signed it into law and it is first on today's press release. As you know it strikes out "6 miles per hour or" changing it to: "Headway speed" means [6 miles per hour or] the slowest speed that a boat can be operated and maintain steerage way. Keeping it simple. As you know Lisa and I testified in front of the House Recreation and Development Committee and also theSenate Transportation committee, with the help of Representative Charlie St. Clair who sponsored the bill.
Thanks for all you did to help out!
Mike & Lisa
