SUMMARY

This bill provides for a limit of 200 feet from shore for the placement of a mooring on Sebago Lake and allows the placement of a mooring up to 600 feet from shore in a cove or mouth of a cove in Sebago Lake. A mooring placed beyond the 200-foot limit may require an extra fee, which will be used for harbor master expenses, and must be illuminated from dusk to dawn during boating season. Moorings may not be placed in front of the property of an adjoining property owner and must be removed by the same date that the harbor master requires the removal of boats from the lake. This bill does not apply to those portions of Sebago Lake under the jurisdiction of the Portland Water District.
