Protecting Our Lake: Respecting Buoy-Marked Zones

An Important Measure for Our Water Body's Health

Dear lake users,

We want to inform you of an important measure implemented to preserve the quality of our water body. Buoys have been installed to mark sections of the lake where algae are currently growing.

Why are these zones off-limits to navigation?

The algae developing in these areas form a fragile ecosystem. When watercraft pass through these zones, they fragment the algae and promote their spread throughout the rest of the lake. This phenomenon can quickly transform a localized problem into widespread proliferation.

Which watercraft are affected?

All watercraft must avoid these marked zones:

• Motorboats
• Personal watercraft (jet skis)
• Kayaks
• Pedals
• Stand-Up Paddleboards (SUP)
• Any other type of vessel

How to identify these zones?

The areas to avoid are clearly marked by buoys installed at regular intervals. These buoys form a visible perimeter around sensitive zones. Please strictly respect these boundaries.

Your cooperation is essential

By following these guidelines, you directly contribute to:

• Limit the spread of algae
• Preserve water quality for everyone
• Maintain a healthy environment for aquatic wildlife
• Ensure the sustainability of our water activities

What to do if you observe violations?

If you notice that a watercraft is not respecting the marked zones, don't hesitate to politely educate other users or contact the local authorities responsible for lake management.

Together, let's preserve our natural heritage

This temporary measure will allow us to better control the situation and restore natural balance to our lake. We count on your understanding and cooperation to make this initiative a success.

Thank you for your commitment to protecting our aquatic environment!
