Summary
Existing law, with certain exceptions, prohibits recreational use, in which there is bodily contact with water, in a reservoir in which water is stored for domestic use and establishes water standards for those exempted reservoirs. This bill would, in addition, exempt from this prohibition recreational activity in which there is bodily contact with water by any participant in Bear Lake Reservoir and would establish standards to be met, including water treatment, monitoring, and reporting requirements. This bill would make legislative findings and declarations as to the necessity of a special statute for the Bear Lake Reservoir.
