    The actual proposal is pretty dang nutty. Mandatory two week closures. I don't understand/comprehend the whole 50% long term gizza gazza either.

    It doesn't directly affect me at all but is still a crappy situation for business owners, campers, and marina operators. In order to stay in business and profitable under these restrictions and added lease rates the consumer will end up footing the bill in the long run.

    That is terrible! You mean that they may force the resort owners to give another person a shot at camping in a prime spot. I am sure that the other person would not be offended to stay in the background as I am sure that they pay less taxes than the people that have been at the same government subsidised place for 25 years. All taxpayers should have use to this property and not just the rich or the ones that have claimed "ownership" of government property. Just business.

    I don't understand your point. Are you saying that only the wealthy use these lands?

    What a shame. Seems like everyone is out to rip our lips off these days!
    If people concentrated on the really important things in life, there'd be a shortage of fishing poles.:rolleyes:

    As one of the so called "Rich" that works 2 jobs so he can fish and camp, I hate what TVA is planing. I purchased a Park model camper for my seasonal spot. You can't easily move my camper and a lot of the camping site where I camp are very difficult to get in and out of. To difficult for a 1 week stay.

    The campgrounds are a business, they should be allowed to be run in a matter that makes a profit for the campgound. It's not like there aren't spots open to camp any weekend other than a holiday.

    IMHO TVA needs to be working on flood planing (Nashville flood this year) and power generation. They already took my famialies land that was waterfront in LBL.

    Amen Brutha! It's all about generating more revenue and price'n the small guy out of the seasonal spots. Big Bear ain't been full 1 day all year.
