-Design zoning and restricting areas for specific uses on specific days throughout the year such as public holiday weekends

-A statewide speed limit on public lakes in Texas

-Uniform regulations that apply to the entire lake and not exclusively to areas of the lake

And some others:

-Do you feel that the wakes generated by motorized vessels are problematic
___________________________________
They dont mention speedboats but MOTORIZED boats.
Thats everybody my freind..

going back to the infamous Lake Martin,they restricted speed AND size and TYPE of boats.
Thats why you cant give any freedom up because you will lose them ALL.
