Alabama Department of Conservation & Natural Resources has several new proposed rules coming up. Im sure you or someone you know will be adversely affected by some of these new "rules" You should contact your Senator and/or Representative addressing your concerns.
Document 220-4.-15 is the one most of you should be concerned with as it will affect you in some shape, form or fashion, so please share this. Paragraph (L) in particular needs to be omitted or changed.
Thank You Jimmie E and Ron Harrison for sharing and posting this information

Paragraph L prohibits the removal ( or disturbance) of anything on the bottom of a waterway declared as navigable by the state. A game warden in Wadley has stated dredging on the Tallapossa will be illegal , and enforced) after Jan 1, 2017. Doesn't matter who owns adjacent land. The river bottom is ( by law) state property. Creeks or non - navigable water is controlled by property owners. I verified this with Dept of Conservation
