Current Projects
2. RLRA as a citizen group follows the process outlined in the Transport Canada publication “Local Authorities’ Guide: Vessel Operation Restriction Regulations (2019 - link below)” where the “Local Authority” for Rosen Lake is the Regional District of East Kootenay (RDEK).
3. The current “Rosen Lake Traditions” that have successfully been in place for 20 years are voluntary codes of conduct that are considered by Transport Canada to be non-regulatory alternatives. RLRA is facilitating a process relative to a potential change to the Rosen Lake Traditions to address the membership concerns regarding the impact of wake boats. Any RLRA recommendation of changes to the current Rosen Lake Traditions would be submitted to the designated local authority, RDEK, for input to their consideration. Any actual changes to the Rosen Lake Traditions would be posted through the RDEK and would be subsequently subject to ongoing review as to its effectiveness.
4. RLRA will continue to facilitate the process to address the concerns raised by the membership and that any resulting changes to the Rosen Lake Traditions will continue to be on the same non- regulatory basis as the existing Rosen Lake Traditions. The final decision to voluntarily limit hours for wake boating/surfing will be discussed at the 2020 AGM.
NOTE NEW AGM DATE: Saturday, August 8, 2020 at 9 a.m. via ZOOM. Members will be sent a meeting I.D.
Refer to P 7 of Transport Canada’s Local Authorities Guide: Vessel Operation Restrictions
“Non-regulatory alternatives: a simple, non-regulatory alternative could be having users agree to:
•respect each other’s rights
•operate in a courteous and considerate manner
•follow a voluntary code of conduct”
