So waterfront owners that are doing things correctly are to pay a fee for those that are not?

As I said at the meeting its really time for the State to step up and do more. They could easily reduce the number of trees people are allowed to cut when clearing lots which helps reduce erosion. Within a radius of say 10 miles around a lake they should only allow stores to sell Phosphorus free fertilizers or at least offer phosphorus free fertilizer and have posted signage encouraging its use and impacts of not using it. The LWA is doing great things but they certainly need a bit more help.

Unfortunately we are a tourist driven economy and until it’s too late and or the tourists stop coming nothing of a major nature will mandated.

I saw a river of brown water head for the lake in Saturday's downpour, all I could think is that isn't good.

I really get a kick out of posts that want to tax waterfront owners for problems that mostly come from off the lake...…. don't Mass. it up.
