[QUOTE="deleted member, post: 265460, member: 816"] i've often wondered how hard a fella could push the OHWM on navigable waters issue.... from allen's link: ORDINARY HIGH WATER MARK (OHWM): That line below which the action of the water is frequent enough either to prevent the growth of vegetation, or to restrict its growth to predominantly wetland species. ie... sandy beaches BOATING ON NAVIGABLE WATERS: -North Dakota owns the bed and banks of these waters below the OHWM. -You are NOT trespassing while you are boating on these waters, as long as you stay BELOW the OHWM. -You must access the river legally, via section line,public property, or with landowner permission. -Fences are only allowed across navigable rivers by the issuance of a Sovereign Land Permit from the OSE, the permittee must abide by general conditions set forth by the OSE, which include ssafety precautions for boaters. [B]-Shore usage such as hiking, fishing, and short-term camping is permitted on sandbars and shorelines which are below the OHWM.[/B] -When in doubt, ask, and ALWAYS be courteous [/QUOTE]
