Senate Bill No. 313 mandates the Department of Energy and Environmental Protection (DEEP) to establish regulations that set a speed limit of ten miles per hour for all motorboats and personal watercrafts operating on Mashapaug Lake in Union. The bill requires these regulations to be adopted by April 1, 2026, and is effective upon passage.
The bill does not include any deletions from current law but introduces new legal language to create this specific regulation for Mashapaug Lake. The fiscal impact of the bill is expected to be negligible, as DEEP has the necessary resources and expertise to implement the regulations without incurring additional costs.
