Abstract

"News & Issues" piece on a proposal by the Land Use Regulation Commission (LURC) that would ban personal watercraft, popularly known as jet skis, on Nicatous and West lakes, as well as on other major north woods lakes, including West Grand, Kennebago and Spring. LURC has regulatory jurisdiction over Maine's 10.5 million-acre unorganized territory and municipalities and authority over pond and lake surface waters exceeding 10 acres. Petitions to ban jet skis are forwarded to the Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife and then to the Legislature, which has the final say.
