Beavers and the Shoreline Protection Act

nj2nh · 04-28-2008, 12:05 PM

Okay, on a serious note here (although I am loving the beaver - dog humor).

My parents have allowed the shoreline of our camp to become overgrown with smallish trees - diameters of no more than 3 or 4 inches. But there are so many of them that we can no longer access or use the beach.

When the time comes for me to take over the property (not anytime soon, I hope), I intend to ruthlessly and mercilessly remove all these annoying little trees. There are plenty of lovely shade-giving bigger ones, but these small ones truly are a nuisance.

Is it possible that I will not be allowed to do this?

Now, don't all go ballistic on me. I love trees as much as the next guy, but these little squirts not only keep us off the beach, but totally block the view from the porch. I don't intend to cut them all, just the ones that are literally in the water or on the beach.
