INTRODUCTION
The Trinity Unit is one of three units that comprise the
Whiskeytown-Shasta-Trinity National Recreation Area (NRA).
Established by Congress in 1965, this area was recognized for
its unique and varied recreation potential. Trinity and Lewiston
Lakes form the core of the Trinity Unit. Trinity Lake is the third
largest human-made lake in California. The shoreline is rugged
and densely forested with hundreds of hidden coves. The westem
side of the lake offers a full spectrum of recreation opportunities
with campgrounds, boat ramps, picnic areas, beaches, full service
marinas, restaurants, and resorts. Also flanking the west side are
the snow covered mountains, emerald meadows, cascading
alpine streams and lakes of the Trinity Alps Wilderness. They
form a breathtaking backdrop to Trinity Lake. The eastern side
of the lake is much more primitive in nature and offers boaters
and campers more solitude.

Lewiston Lake is a constant level lake and serves as a fore bay
for transporting Trinity River water across the mountains to
Whiskeytown Lake and the Sacramento River. Prior to the
construction of Trinity and Lewiston Dams, the Trinity River Valley
between Lewiston and Coffee Creek, once supported several
small towns and a thriving rural economy based on farming,
ranching, mining and logging. Much of this was replaced in the
early 1960s by the rising waters of Trinity and Lewiston Lakes.

LAKE FLUCTUATIONS & UNDERWATER
OBSTACLES

Annual precipitation and the demand for water are the primary
determinants of water levels in Trinity lake. Lake levels can
vary from a few inches to several feet per day. As water
levels flucturate, remnants of the past, and other underwater
obstacles such as rocks, trees, stumps and other landforms may
become exposed or may lie just below the water surface
when the lake level changes.

The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) prohibits discrimination
in all its programs and activities on the basis of race, color, national origin, sex,
religion, age, disability, political beliefs, sexual orientation, or marital or familial
status. (Not all prohibited bases apply to all programs.) Persons with disabilities
iho require ateraive means for communication of program information (bral

THE UNDERWATER OBSTACLE PROGRAM

The Underwater Obstacle Program is being funded through
Recreation Fee Demonstration Program legislation which allows
the Forest Service to retain and reinvest specific recreation special
use permit fees to provide recreation based improvements in the
NRA.

The Underwater Obstacle Program objectives are:

* To encourage safe boating practices.
* To promote an awareness of the presence of obstacles in
Trinity lake.

The Program has a number of components, including:

+ Boating Safety Brochure: This brochure includes a
description of the program and a graphic representation
of how the features of the lake might be affected by
changes in water level.

+ Interpretive Signs: These signs will be located at designated
boat ramps notifying boaters of the presence of obstacles, and
the fact that most obstacles are NOT marked. Boating safety
regulations will also be included in the signing.

* Obstacle Marking: Obstacle markers have been installed
within the pool area of the lake. The intention is NOT to mark
all underwater obstacles; this would be virtually impossible. The
markers are to serve as a visual reminder that obstacles are
present and to encourage boaters to watch for debris, underwater
obstacles and shallow areas. The responsibility for boating
safety rests with each individual vessel operator.

Trinity Lake business owners have volunteered their
work force to assist with future installation, and
responsibility for the maintenance of the obstacle
markers. The merits and success of this program will
be evaluated and its continuation is at the discretion
of the District Ranger.

California Waterway Marker System Information: |
A uniform California Waterway Marker system has been |
devised for all waterways within the state. All Trinity

Lake markers will incorporate the system's distinctive
shapes to show regulatory or advisory information. j=
These markers have white and black letters and orange
symbols and borders. They signify restricted areas,
speed zones, danger areas, and general information.
Vessel operators on Trinity Lake should be familiar with

the following types of markers.

California Waterway Marker System:

ois fo

Controlled Danger Information
Area Keep Out

It is a violation of Federal law, punishable by up to 6
months in jail and/or a $500 fine, to move, vandalize, or
otherwise intentionally damage or alter obstacle markers,
control buoys or regulatory buoys. Never tie watercraft to
buoys or other navigational aids.

BOAT SAFE AND SOBER!

Alcohol and drug use have been cited as contributing factors in
many boating injuries, accidents and fatalities. Studies indicate that
the effects of alcohol and drugs are more pronounced when
operating a boat. Alcohol and/or drug use combined with wind,
increased noise levels, vibration, wave action and sun glare have
been shown to have a tremendous adverse influence on judgement
and response times. It is unlawful to operate a recreational vessel
while under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Under California
State law, a person with a blood alcohol level or .087% or greater
is considered to be under the influence.

WHEN TROUBLE STRIKES

The Trinity County Sheriff's Department maintains a lake patrol
Program on Trinity Lake which is funded by the California State
Department of Boating and Waterways. Medical aid is provided by
Trinity County volunteer fire departments and the Trinity Life Support
Ambulance Company based in Weaverville.

Reporting an Emergency or a fire

Call 911

If you are in distress (i.e. when threatened by grave and
imminent danger), observe another individual or vessel in
distress, or want to report a fire, be prepared to calmly and
clearly report the following information when asked:

+ Your name

+ Where you are on the lake

* What emergency has occurred

+ How many people are on board and involved

+ Extent of injuries

+ Description of your vessel, including registration number

Cellular phone service is available from many places on the lake.
Pay phones are available at most marinas and resorts.

After An Accident Has Occurred

If an accident results in loss of life, injury requiring medical treatment
beyond first aid, or damage to property in excess of $500 (including
loss of a vessel), the owner/operator is required by law to report
the accident in writing to the California Department of Boating and
Waterways. All boat operators involved in the accident must provide
their names, addresses and vessel registration numbers to other
involved parties, provide assistance to any injured persons, and in
one of a death or disappearance, report the accident without
lelay.

REGULATIONS PERTAINING TO BOATING ON
TRINITY LAKE

Boating on Trinity Lake is regulated by State and Federal Boating
Laws, County Ordinances, and Orders issued by the Supervisor of
the Shasta-Trinity National Forest. The County Sheriff, the California
Department of Fish and Game (DFG), and the USDA Forest Service
(FS) are responsible for law enforcement on Trinity Lake.

Speed and Time Restrictions:

The following list of common violations will be strictly enforced:

+ Exceeding the posted 5 MPH speed limit in coves.

+ No water-skiing between sunset and sunrise.

+ Navigation lights are required half-hour after sunset to half-hour
before sunrise.

* 10 MPH speed limit on all waters in Trinity County from half
hour after sunset to half-hour before sunrise. (Sunset is determined
when the sun disappears behind the horizon and the area of operation. Due
to the mountainous nature of Trinity County, times of sunset vary as to locations
of operation.)

+ Locally restricted areas of operation are marked with buoys
and/or signs on shore.

+ Be considerate and watch the size of your wake. You can
be liable for damage or injury caused by your wake.

State Law requires operation under 5 MPH in the following
circumstances:

+ Within 200 feet of a swimmer (this includes persons on air
matresses, inner tubes or similar flotation devices).

+ Within 200 feet of beaches frequented by swimmers.
+ Within 200 feet of a mooring vessel.
+ Within 200 feet of a boat ramp.

Age Restrictions

* Operators must be 16 years or older to drive a motorized vessel
with greater than 15 horsepower.

* Persons 12 to 15 years of age may operate a motorized vessel
while accompanied and supervised by a person 18 years of
age or older.

Personal Watercraft:

“Personal watercraft" (PWC) refers to a vessel less than 12 feet in
length, propelled by machinery and operated by a person sitting,
standing, or kneeling on the vessel rather than sitting or standing
inside the vessel. PWCs are subject to the same regulations that
apply to boats.

All persons aboard a personal water craft must wear a Coast
Guard approved Type |, Il, Ill, or V life jacket.

The following PWC activities are prohibited:

+ No person shall operate a PWC at a speed in excess
of 5 MPH within 100 feet of any swimmers, shoreline
or anchored vessel

* PWCs cannot be operated between the hours of one half
hour after sunset to half hour before sunrise, even if
equipped with the proper navigational lights

* Operating a PWC without a lanyard-operated “kill switch”

+ Jumping the wakes within 100 ft. of another vessel.

+ Spraying other vessels or persons in the water.

+ Operating in a manner that requires the PWC or another vessel
to swerve to avoid collision

Reckless and negligent operation

+ Boating under the influence (zero tolerance).

+ Skiing, tubing or wakeboarding without an observer

* Bow riding

+ Maneuvering a vessel to pass over or under another vessel's
towline of a skier or other towed device

Required Equipment

* Wearable and Throwable Personal Flotation Devices (PFDs)
Flotation Devices are REQUIRED on all vessels for every
person on board. They must be in serviceable condition (no
broken straps, missing hardware, or missing or faded approval
number), be the proper size(s), and must be stowed to allow
ready accessibility. THROWABLE FLOTATION DEVICES
MUST BE AVAILABLE FOR IMMEDIATE USE. Wearables
include all Type |, I, and III lifejackets. Type | includes Life
Preservers, Type Il are buoyant vests such as the “Mae West”
style, and Type Ill are the special purpose marine buoyant
devices. Type | lifejackets are recommended for most situations
because they are the only wearable flotation devices designed
to keep a person afloat even when exhausted or incapacitated.
They will keep a person's head above water in rough water,
and have the ability to turn an unconscious person face up.
Throwables such as buoyant cushions and ring lifebuoys are
considered Type IV and Type V devices. Persons being towed,
such as skiers, are considered passengers and are required
to wear flotation devices. On all boats over 16 feet, except
canoes and kayaks, the flotation devices required must be
a wearable type (Type |, Il, or Ill) plus one throwable (Type
\V or V). On all other boats, wearable or throwable devices
may be used as long as there is at least one per person.
Children under the age of 12 MUST wear a life jacket when
aboard an underway vessel 26 feet or less. Exceptions: on
a sailboat, if the child is in an enclosed cabin, or restrained
by a hamess tethered to the vessel.

Note: PFDs only work if they are worn and buckled properly.
An unconscious person cannot put on a lifejacket. Even a
conscious person will have great difficulty putting on a lifejacket
once he or she is in the water.

+ Fire Extinguishers
All motorboats are required to have fire extinguishers on
board, with the exception of outboard pleasure boats
measuring less than 26 feet long that do not have
permanently installed fuel tanks or enclosed spaces for
gases or vapors to collect. All extinguishers must be
approved for marine use and be at least B-1 in size (see
below).

+ Lights

Running lights are required on all vessels operating between half
hour before sunset and half hour before sunrise. Manually
propelled vessels must have at least one hand held white light.
The design, size and number of lights are dictated by type and
size of vessel. See “The ABCs of California Boating Law’ for
specific requirements.

* Other Requirements

+ Ventilation and Backfire Flame Control Devices are
fequired on all powerboats except those with outboard
motors.

+ Horns or whistles are required on vessels 16 feet
or longer and all vessels must have some means of
making a loud sound for signaling other than the human
voice.

Registration and Permits

All vessels, except boats manually propelled, sailboats eight feet
or less in length without other means of propulsion, and certain
public vessels must be registered and numbered through the State
of California. Out-of-state registration is valid for 90 days. In addition,
some boats such as houseboats require a Forest Service permit
to be on the lake in excess of 30 days per calendar year. This
festriction applies primarily to boats designed for overnight use.
Engine Noise

Engines must be muffled or otherwise prevented from exceeding
82dB (A) noise levels when recorded at a distance of 50 feet.
Boats manufactured before January 1, 1987 may run at levels up
to 86 dB (A). Authorities generally agree that unbaffled exhaust

Pipes (stacks) and most water injected pipes cannot meet the
above standards.

Warning Flags

Boaters should exercise caution when operating in areas where
these flags are displayed.

Ss fF

Divers Down Flag Water Ski Flag

Water Skiing, Tubing and Wakeboarding

For all activities where a person is being towed, there must be a
person at least 12 years of age acting as an observer, in addition
to the vessel operator. California state law requires the observer
to display a ski flag (as shown above) to indicate any of the following
conditions; a person in the water preparing to be towed, a tow line
extending from the vessel, a downed person, or equipment in the
vicinity of the vessel. The orange or red flag must be no less than
12 inches on each side and be in the shape of a square or rectangle.

Swimming

There are two designated swimming sites along the shoreline of
Trinity Lake; Tannery Gulch and Clark Springs. The steep embankment
and the heavy draw down during the recreation season make
finding other flat spots for a suitable beach along the water's edge
difficult. There are hundreds of coves and bays where visitors can
find a safe, quiet place to swim. The practice of swimming while
houseboating and powerboating in main channels and busy coves
is not advised due to heavy traffic. It is difficult for oncoming boats

+ Swimming is prohibited within 200 feet of any launch ramp.

Swimming contginued:
* Do not swim up to or near swimming fur bearing animals

(otters, bear, deer, etc.) They could have young with, or near
them, and they may become aggressive toward a swimmer.

+ It is unsafe and a violation of State Law to swim, fish, dive
from or sunbathe on any courtesy dock or within 200 feet of
a boat launching ramp.

THINGS TO KNOW
Boat Launching

Both Forest Service and commercial ramps are available. Each of
the six designated Forest Service ramps has a paved ramp, restrooms
and garbage disposal facilities. A daily use fee is required. Not all
ramps are open year-round, When lake levels are down more than
75 feet, some ramps become inoperable or are moved to an
alternate location. There are a few ramps designed with long enough
paved ramps to accommodate launching when the lake levels go
down below 75 feet drawdown. These ramps are located at
Minersville, Cedar Stock and Estrellita. Additional launching facilities
may be available at the marinas.

Debris

Floating debris (such as limbs, logs and bark) generally enter the
lake through rivers and streams. Following winter storms and during
spring runoff, a considerable amount of debris may accumulate in
Trinity lake, The rising lake also “refloats" any debris beached on
the shoreline from previous years. The larger debris can present
a physical obstacle for boaters, while smaller debris can clog water
intake ports in boat engine cooling systems, and can ruin props.
Boat operators should maintain a constant watch and travel at
teduced speeds when these conditions exist. Fairview and Trinity
Center boat ramps, due to their location and the direction of
prevailing winds during the spring months, are most likely to be
impacted by debris, During the peak summer months, most debris
is beached on the shoreline with little impact on public enjoyment
or safety.

Sanitation

During the height of the summer, several floating restrooms are
placed on the lake for the convenience of boaters. Floating restrooms
are generally located in the Stuarts Fork Arm at Clark Springs and
Ridgeville Island, also in the Digger, Feeney, and the Freethy Arms.
The floating restrooms are normally moored in these areas from
Memorial Day to Labor Day weekends. If lake levels go below 70
feet they are removed.

Boaters are encouraged to use these floating restrooms, the toilet
facilities on board their boats, or the restrooms at the boat ramps,
boat-in-campgrounds, and marinas. If necessary, human waste and
toilet paper should be buried in a hole at least six inches deep and
200’ from the high water mark (the line where the vegetation
begins and the shoreline ends). Trinity Lake is a “no discharge"
lake. Holding tanks must be sealed. Emptying holding tanks
anywhere other than in approved marina pumping stations,
including in floating restrooms, is prohibited.

Sanitation continued:

Garbage receptacles are located at picnic areas and boat ramps.
Garbage is not collected at undeveloped sites, including boat-in
campgrounds. Garbage should be disposed of in the nearest
container.

Towing Services

There are no established commercial towing services on Trinity or
Lewiston Lakes. Some marinas provide towing services for their
moorage customers or to the public for a fee. It is not the policy
of the Forest Service or the Trinity County Sheriff's Department to
tow disabled vessels.

Fueling Up

During the summer months, most marinas and resorts carry fuel
for boaters, along with other supplies. These businesses include:

* Trinity Alps Marina + Trinity Lake Resort
+ Estrellita Resort * Trinity Center Marina
+ Wyntoon Resort (other supplies only)

Most of these businesses don't sell fuel during the winter so boaters
are reminded to do some pre-planning to find out where fuel is
available.

Bear Precautions
Black bears are common around Trinity lake, and they have been
known to get onto boats moored on or near shore. The potential
for bear encounters can be reduced if visitors follow some common
sense do's and don'ts:
1. Keep food, beverages, and toiletries in secure,
sealed containers inside boat.
2. Keep a clean boat and a clean camp.
3. Double bag garbage securely and deposit in garbage
receptacles at boat ramps as often as possible.
4. Do not feed or tease the bears. California Code
of Regulations “Prohibits the feeding of big game
mammals." Violators are subject to a $1,000 fine,
6 months in jail, or both.

Campfire Permits

Campfire Permits are required year round when using hibachis,
barbeques or campfires on the shoreline or on board when the
boat is touching the shoreline, and when dispersed camping. A
permit can be obtained from Forest Service personnel in the field
or from the nearest Forest Service Station. Throughout the year, as
fire danger increases, fire restrictions are put into effect. Strict
compliance with fire restrictions is required. It is your responsibility
to find out what these restrictions are by contacting the Weaverville
Ranger Station at (530) 623-2121.

Boat Access Campgrounds

The Forest Service operates four boat-in campgrounds on Trinity
Lake, Situated in more remote areas of the lake, these camps offer
a unique camping experience away from populated areas. These
camps have tables, stoves, and vault toilet facilities. Campers are
advised to bring their own water or to boil any surface water for
at least five minutes. Garbage service is not provided at boat-in
campgrounds. Dispose of garbage at the boat ramps and do not
leave it at the floating restrooms.

Dispersed Area Camps

Camping outside of a developed campground is permitted on
Trinity Lake with one exception: The area between Wyntoon
Resort and County Road 106 is closed to camping within one
quarter of a mile of the Trinity Lake high waterline. To assure
that the privilege of camping along the shoreline is not lost, help
keep the area clean. Be sure and pack out all garbage when leaving
because garbage service is not provided at these out of the way
places. Dispose of garbage at the boat ramps and do not leave it
at the floating restrooms.

GOOD PRACTICES
Practice “Person-Overboard” Skills

Practicing simple person-overboard (POB) drills with your crew
and/or family members can save a life. A simulated drill might go
something like this... One person yells loudly to alert everyone
that a person has fallen overboard. The driver immediately shuts
off the motor. The driver simulates sounding five or more short
blasts on the horn (the danger signal) to alert other boats in the
area of a POB. Someone is assigned to point at the POB until the
driver says they've located the person. Only when the driver
can see the POB should they start the engine and slowly
approach from upwind or up current until the boat is close enough
to toss the POB a flotation device to help them stay afloat. The
engine is turned off again and the boat allowed to drift into a
tetrieval position with the POB on the driver's side of the boat. The
drill is completed when the POB is brought safely into the boat.
