Full story: Athens Banner-Herald

A boat ramp at Bear Creek Reservoir should open within two or three weeks if the 500-acre lake has enough water - too late for the three-day Labor Day holiday this weekend.

According to the Bear Creek Reservoir ordinance, you can not operate a boat with a gasoline engine. Does that mean that the boat must not have a gasoline engine on board or does it mean that a boat with a gasoline engine can be used if the gasoline engine is not operated?

try not to think too hard genius, there should not be any boats on a reservoir. this is the most irresponsible thing I've ever heard.

Lake Lanier is a reservoir, as is Lake Hartwell. Genius, most man-made lakes are reservoirs. Some are just larger than others. if you haven't noticed people fight over the water out of Lanier.

I wished they would have never built that lake!! My property has been in the family since the 60's and because they say we live on a lake now it is some million dollar resort property. We still live in the same house with the same job and the property tax has quadrupled!! Not to mention you can't swim or even enjoy the lake. When the drought was so bad I was praying everyday the s.o.b would have went dry.
