§ 411-11. Control of Public Landing.  


Latest version.
  • In exercising control of the activities on the public landing the wharfmaster shall at all times be authorized to restrict the use of the landing when in the judgment of the wharfmaster the mooring or other use of the public landing is not in the general public interest because of such circumstances as high water, fire or explosion hazard, objectionable odors, or the mooring of vessels not providing a public accommodation for periods in excess of 24 hours. All vessels using the public landing or the river termini of streets must be prepared for the eventuality of the hazards normal to the river such as ice, driftwood, flood waters, and swift current. At any time that the streets are closed due to high water or other emergency conditions, vessels or wharfboats must be prepared to be self-sufficient in coping with the natural hazards of river conditions.
