The *nerve* of those damned manatees and the FWC, interfering with your
boating pleasure.


Who or what would have the nerve to dare interfere with or restrict the
personal pleasure of a seaman of WayneBs' stature?
Suitable punishment might be a stint in the Army's resort on Cuba's south
coast.

Most FWC signs *are* a hazard to navigation.

I agree just thought this may come in handy for someone one day.

The FWC operates an on-call response program to coordinate the timely
examination, evaluation and appropriate repair of FWC assets that
represent a potential hazard to navigation. This type of response
system provides an efficient notification process for directing
personnel to evaluate issues and take appropriate action. In some
cases, this may involve passing on reports of non-FWC related waterway
problems to another responsible entity such as the United States Coast
Guard.

just on demand.

We had a marker down in the Estero Bay (ICW type pole down, laying
right at the water line)and he had it back up within 48 hours of me
sending the Email. It was really supposed to be prvately maintained
but Lee County decided the danger trumped the turf war.

It's good to hear that some parts of government are responsive to
issues.
