Time to speak up, sounds like these will be pretty obtrusive.

To recap: These anchorages are nothing new. This is being driven by some NIMBY land owners who are looking for any reason (excuse) to restrain, prohibit, control the use of the river to their exclusive desires. These vessels being controlled are going to use the river. They are not restricted from using the river. They are simply anchoring, awaiting either berth or daylight (for running the upper river) or just laying too. None of these actions are prohibited or regulated. BUT..... This is desired to be controlled and regulated. Sounds like someone has an axe to grind.
Actually though, the reference is to a proposed new set of additional of commercial anchorages. I reviewed them when the LNM came out and personally don't have an issue with them.
I think I'm gonna puke.....
