- 1. Improvements on Managed Land. The following items may be constructed or installed on the BCDA managed land above the normal summer pool level (See Table A) upon approval by BCDA, issuance of BCDA Land Use License and payment of annual fee. The BCDA Land Use License only authorizes the proposed use of the land and construction, operation, and maintenance of facilities approved in advance and in writing by BCDA. The applicant must (1) be the fee owner or owner of rights to property abutting the managed lands, or (2) the owner of rights for use of the managed lands. All facilities and improvements must be constructed in a manner which does not block access by the general public to the reservoir waters or shoreline and maintained in good order and appearance. Access by the general public to the reservoir waters or the shoreline refers to pedestrian access and does not include vehicles.
2. All facilities shall be so constructed or anchored to prevent their floating into the reservoir upon flooding and shall not contribute to undue erosion or deterioration of the shoreline. All facilities shall be maintained in a good, safe, and substantial condition and shall meet requirements of appearance and location acceptable to BCDA. BCDA shall have the authority to revoke licenses to comply with terms and conditions of the license. A fee will be charged for all licenses on the managed lands which serve private properties not acquired from BCDA.
