TIlE WINTER: SEASON <br /> <br />, <br />ALTERNATIVEIC <br />OAR-ONLY USE <br />OCTOBER 1 to <br />JANUARY 1 <br /> <br />ALTERNATIVE D <br />THREE, TWO-WE~K OAR- <br />ONLY PERIODS DURING <br />THE SUMMER ' <br />SEASON <br /> <br />Under this alternative, motor and oar- <br />powered trips would both be offered throughout <br />the year and there would be no scheduled periods <br />when motorized craft would be prohibited. The <br />summer season would be May 1 to September 30. <br />This alternative would allow the greatest <br />opportunities for the use of motorized craft. <br />Although no oar-only periods would be scheduled, <br />some oar-powered groups may experience trips <br />without interaction with motorized craft during <br />the winter (low use) season. <br /> <br />Under this alternative, motorized use would <br />be prohibited during the entire winter season <br />from October 16 through April 15. Those desiring <br />the oar-only option would be relegated to a less <br />ideal time of the year (considering weather). <br />Winter use levels have bistorically been low and <br />the demand for oar-only use during the winter <br />is uncertain. Under this option, groups who <br />prefer motor-powered trips would not be accom- <br />modated during the winter. <br /> <br />Under this alternative, motorized use would <br />be prohibited during three months of the winter <br />season. . Oar-only use would be permitted from <br />October 1 to January 1. Motorized use would be <br />permitted during the balance of the winter season <br />and during the entire summer season from April 16 <br />to October 1. This option would provide for oar- <br />only use in the early fall when weather is still <br />fairly mild. In addition, it would provide <br />a choice between motors and oars for winter use. <br />User day limits would not be assigned to either <br />the motorized or non-motorized winter use periods. <br />Rather, the number of user days in both categories <br />would be allowed to fluctuate based on demand. <br />This would allow maximizing public choice while <br />minimizing the possibility of unused days. <br /> <br />Under this alternative, three, two-week oar- <br />only use periods during the summer season would <br />be scheduled. The summer season would extend <br />from April 16 to October 15. This alternative <br />would provide for oar-only use during a favorable <br />time of the year (considering weather). Total <br />separation of motor and oar use would not be pos- <br />sible during these two-week periods, because of <br />different rates of travel for motorized and non- <br />motorized craft. <br /> <br />9 <br /> <br /> <br />- <br />
