June 8, 2008--New boating rules at Dillon Dam (Aspen Times)
Security guards have been hired to help protect Dillon Dam, warning boaters to stay at least 100 feet away from the dam. The 100-foot rule is not officially in effect yet. Denver Water spokeswoman Stacy Chesney said Denver Water has never allowed boaters to land or anchor on the dam at its mountain reservoir but there hasn't been a rule to keep boaters a certain distance from the dam. She said 100-foot limit won't be enforced until buoys are put in place, which is expected to happen by mid-August.
