There was an addition to the Loch Raven boating permit contracts for 2017. The addition was added to the forms that were provided to return permit holders, during registration. I am posting this information because many people who signed their contracts did not take the time to fully read the document as they were moving through the crowded lines at registration. Many assumed that the contract was the same as it has been for many years. That assumption was incorrect. Below is an image of my contract for 2017. I appreciate that Kevin provided a copy to me upon the request I made 2 days ago. I was unaware of the change and requested the copy for confirmation.
Item 15, states that no vessels are allowed above Papermill Rd Bridge. This restriction is new to the contract. Kevin, at the fishing center, conveyed to me that this has always been the rule, but was not in previous contracts. I am posting this information so that no one makes a mistake that will lead them to have their permit revoked.
