Tuolumne Supervisors consider non motorized section of Lake Tulloch

At the July 15, 2014 Tuolumne Board of Supervisors meeting the Supervisors addressed a plan to create a non motorized area of Lake Tulloch at the Green Springs arm, known to many as the Kistler Ranch cove.

The proposal submitted by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) proposed to cordon off the majority of the cove, a common and favorite cove hangout for many local boaters and visitors alike. However, in a letter penned by Evan Royce, Chairman of the Tuolumne County Board of Supervisors to TriDam the proposal was reduced to cordon off only a small finger of the cove for non motorized boating and allowing the cove to remain as designated; a 5 mph zone.
