Personal Watercraft Ban at Lake Mead Postponed
A ban on personal watercraft at Lake Mead National Recreation Area has been postponed until April 10, the National Park Service said.
The Park Service reached an agreement with Bluewater Network, a San Francisco-based environmental group, that will allow use of personal watercraft until April 10 while officials for the recreation area finalize a management plan for lakes Mead and Mohave.
The Park Service was supposed to have had the plan finalized and environmental impacts assessed by Sept. 15, according to a 2001 court settlement with the group.
