Subd. 17. The part of Wayzata Bay in the channel through the shallow water area north of Cedar Point East marked by navigation buoys. Sec. 3.021 Section 3.021. High Water Subd. 1. Policy; Purpose. The Board of Directors of the LMCD has determined that (i) the operation of watercraft at normal speeds on the Lake during periods of High Water, as defined in this section, has serious adverse effects on the shoreline of the Lake and structures existing on the shoreline, and (ii) the restriction of watercraft wakes during periods of High Water is essential to the conservation of the shoreline of the Lake and the overall quality of the Lake as a natural resource. It is the purpose of this section to provide reasonable regulation of watercraft wakes during periods of High Water, and to establish a mechanism for enforcing of those limits and adequately informing Lake users of the existence and need for the regulations. Subd. 2. Definitions. For purposes of this section the terms defined in this subdivision have the meanings given them. a) "High Water" means a High Water Declaration has been made as provided in this section and has not been terminated. b) "Minimum Wake" means the wave moving out from a watercraft and trailing behind in a widening "V" of insufficient size to affect other watercraft or be detrimental to the shoreline. c) "Regulated Area" means (i) all of the surface area of the following bays and portions of the Lake; Emerald Lake, Libbs Bay, Seton Lake, Bay St. Louis, Black Lake, Coffee Cove, Big Island Passage, Robinson's Bay, Tanager Lake, Forest Lake, Carson's Bay, Excelsior Bay, Priest's Bay, St. Alban's Bay, Gray's Bay, Stubb's Bay, and Jenning's Bay, and (ii) the surface area of the Lake within a distance of 600 feet of the shoreline on all parts of the lake not included in paragraph (i) above. Subd. 3. General Rule. When a High Water Declaration has been made, it is unlawful for a person to operate a watercraft in the Regulated Area at a speed of more than 5 miles per hour or a speed that results in more than a Minimum Wake. Subd. 4. Procedure: High Water Declaration. The Executive Director is authorized and directed to determine from authoritative sources the Executive Director deems reliable the water level of the Lake from time to time. The Executive Director may make a High Water Declaration when the Lake elevation has been at or above elevation 930.0 feet NGVD for a period of five consecutive days; provided, readings show an elevation of 930.0 feet or more on the first day and the fifth day (or next day thereafter when readings are available), at least one such reading between the first and last reading, and no intervening readings below 930.0 feet. The Executive Director shall make a High Water Declaration when the Lake elevation either 1) has been at or above elevation 930.0 feet NGVD for a period of eight consecutive days; provided, readings show an elevation of 930.0 feet or more on the first day and eighth day (or next day thereafter when readings are available), at least two such readings between the first and last reading, and no intervening reading below 930.0 feet, or 2) the Lake elevation has reached or exceeded 930.25 feet NGVD. Upon making a High Water Declaration, the Executive Director must forthwith take Sec. 3.021, Subd. 5 (Rev. 10-99) the following steps: a) Notify the Hennepin County Sheriff's Water Patrol that a High Water Declaration has been made and that the wake regulations of this section are in effect as of a specific date and time. b) Notify, by any practicable means, marina operators, associations and other interested persons that a High Water Declaration has been made. c) Take whatever action deemed by the Executive Director to be necessary to disseminate as widely as possible the fact that a High Water Declaration has been made and that the wake regulations of this section are in effect. Subd. 5. Procedure: High Water Termination. When the Executive Director determines from authoritative sources that the lake level has fallen and remained below elevation 930.0 feet NGVD for a period of three consecutive days, the Executive Director may take the same steps set out in subdivision 4 to inform the Water Patrol and other persons that High Water no longer exists and that the wake regulations of this section are not in effect. Subd. 6. Exceptions. The provisions of this section do not apply to the sheriff, deputies, or other law enforcement officers, while engaged in the performance of their duties, or to seaplanes during a landing or takeoff. Section 3.022. Use of Motorboats Prohibited Subd.
1. Prohibition. No
person, other than authorized law enforcement personnel or governmental
resource management personnel in performance of their duties, shall operate a
motorboat using propulsion by machinery in any of the following areas:
a) Six Mile Creek from
the mouth of the creek (located at a line between Latitude 44° 54.844' North, Longitude 93° 42.166' West and Latitude 44° 54.831' North, Longitude 93° 42.138' West) upstream to the
right of way of State Highway 7.
b) Painter's Creek west
of County Road 110 (located at Latitude 44°, 57.723'
North, Longitude 093°,
30.931' West), upstream to the contour line at elevation 929.4 NGVD. c) Long Lake Creek from the railroad
trestle (located at a line between Latitude 44°,
57.793' North, Longitude 093°,
33.860' West and Latitude 44°,
57.806' North, Longitude 093°,
33.842' West), upstream to the contour line at elevation 929.4 NGVD. Subd. 2. Aids to Navigation. If such areas in which use of
motorboats using propulsion by machinery is prohibited are delineated by
signs, buoys, markers or other aids to navigation by the District or by the
County, the location indicated by such aids to navigation shall control. Subd. 3. Exception. The prohibition in Subdivision 1 shall
not apply to any watercraft that is 24 feet in length overall or less
and that is being propelled by a single electric motor that has only
a single propeller and is not capable of generating more than 60 pounds
of thrust at its maximum operating voltage.
Length overall means the horizontal measurement from the foremost
to the aftermost points of the watercraft, including all equipment and
attachments in their normal operating positions. Section 3.03. Rules of the Road Subd. 1. Overtaking. When watercraft are running in the same direction, the craft which is astern shall pass only when there is sufficient distance between the crafts so it can do so safely and only at such speed that its wash or wake will not endanger the craft being passed or its occupants. No person operating a watercraft shall abruptly change its course without first determining that it can be safely done without risk of collision with another craft. Subd. 2. Approaching. When watercraft are approaching each other head on, or nearly so, each shall turn to the right a sufficient distance so that they will safely pass. When the course of an approaching craft is so far to the right as not to be considered as meeting head on, each shall maintain its course and pass clear. Subd. 3. Crossing. When watercraft are crossing courses, or approaching each other obliquely or at right angles, so as to involve risk of collision, the craft which has the other on its own right shall yield the right-of-way. Subd. 4. Sailboats. Sailboats under sail alone shall have right-of-way over all other watercraft underway except when overtaking such other watercraft. Subd. 5. Horn Signals. Proper horn signals are as follows in a meeting situation: "One blast means 'pass port to port'; two blasts mean 'pass starboard to starboard'; three blasts mean 'backing from closed area'; and four blasts mean 'danger of collision exists, stop or slow to bare steerage'." The operator of such motorboats shall, only when reasonably necessary to ensure safe operation, sound such horn, whistle or bell.
Section 3.04. Watercraft Equipment. Subd. 1. Lights. Watercraft operating on the Lake, when underway or in use at any time between sunset and sunrise, shall carry and display the lights specified in this section for such watercraft. a) Running lights. Watercraft shall be equipped with and have in operation a red 10 point light to port (left) and a green 10 point light to starboard (right) in the forward section of the watercraft, visible at least one mile, and a white light visible all around the horizon at a distance of two miles or more. No watercraft other than an authorized sheriff's boat or other police watercraft shall use or display a red light other than a red running light. Sec. 3.04, Subd. 1 b) (Rev. 6-99) b) Anchor lights. All watercraft when at anchor or drifting must show a white light visible from any direction for a distance of one mile, and such light shall be lit from sunset to sunrise. Subd 2. Personal Flotation Devices. (a) Every person on board a watercraft shall wear or have readily accessible a U.S. Coast Guard approved Type I, II, or III personal flotation device. In addition to these devices, watercraft 16 feet or more in length, except canoes and kayaks, must also carry at least one U.S. Coast Guard approved Type IV personal flotation device. A U.S. Coast Guard approved Type IV personal flotation device may be carried in lieu of any personal flotation device required by this part, on non-motorized watercraft operated by lifeguards within a marked swimming area, as defined in Minnesota Rules part 6110.1600. (b) A U.S. Coast Guard approved Type V personal flotation device may be carried in lieu of any personal flotation device required in this rule, if the Type V personal flotation device is approved: (1) for the activity in which the watercraft is being used; and (2) as a substitute for the type of personal flotation devices required to be on board the watercraft. (c) Persons being towed by a watercraft on water skis or other devices shall be considered to be on board the towing watercraft for the purpose of personal flotation device requirements. A U.S. Coast Guard approved Type I, II, or III personal flotation device must be either carried in the towing watercraft or worn by the person being towed. Persons being towed must also be in compliance with Section 3.10, subd. 3 of this Code. (d) All personal flotation devices required by this subpart shall be: (1) approved by the United States Coast Guard; (2) legibly marked with the approval number issued by the United States Coast Guard; (3) in serviceable condition free of tears, rot, punctures, or waterlogging, and with all straps and fasteners present and in good condition; (4) either readily accessible or worn with the following exceptions: (i) those Type V devices which are required to be worn to be accepted as United States Sec. 3.04, Subd. 2 d) (4) (ii) (Rev. 6-99) Coast Guard approved; (ii) those cases designated by statute where wearing a Coast Guard approved Type I, II, III, or V personal flotation device is mandatory; and (iii) Type IV personal flotation devices must be immediately available. (5) of the appropriate size for the intended wearer, if the device is designed to be worn. (e) For purposes of this subdivision, "readily accessible" means easily retrievable within a reasonable amount of time in an emergency. "Immediately available" means easily reached in time of emergency. Personal flotation devices located in locked containers, under heavy objects or left in shipping bags are not considered readily accessible or immediately available; Subd. 3. Horns. Motorboats 16 feet or more in overall length shall carry a power, hand or mouth operated horn, whistle or bell capable of producing a sound for at least two seconds and audible for at least one-half mile. Watercraft 26 feet or more in overall length using the Lake shall carry a horn or whistle as prescribed by the commissioner. Subd. 4. Fire Extinguisher. Motorboats carrying or using fuel or other flammable or toxic fluid in a tank or engine, which is in any enclosure of the boat shall be equipped with a B.C. charged fire extinguisher and an efficient natural or mechanical ventilation system which will remove gases prior to and during the time any person operates the watercraft. Such fuel or fluid is in an "enclosure" if it is not in contact with the open atmosphere or if it is located in an area where fumes or vapors could accumulate. Subd. 5. Mufflers. It is unlawful to use a boat or watercraft other than aircraft propelled in whole or in part by any internal combustion engine unless the same is provided with a stock factory muffler, underwater exhaust or other modern device capable of adequately muffling or suppressing the sound of the exhaust of the engine. The phrase "adequately muffling" shall mean that the engine's exhaust shall at all times be so muffled or suppressed as not to create excessive or unusual noise. No engine shall be equipped with any cut-out. Subd. 6. Device for Arresting Backfire. No motor other than a detachable outboard motor shall be used on any watercraft unless its carburetor is fitted with a U.S. Coast Guard device for arresting backfire. Subd. 7. Marine Toilets. Marine toilets must retain waste Sec. 3.04, Subd. 8 (Rev. 6-99) on board for pump out or other proper disposal on shore and must be in compliance with any applicable requirements of the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency. Built in toilets may not be capable of being discharged overboard by gravity or by pumping using equipment on the watercraft, and may not have outside drains including overflow drains. No person shall discharge into the water of the Lake, directly or indirectly, from a watercraft, any treated or untreated sewage or other wastes, nor shall any container of untreated sewage or other wastes be placed, left, discharged, or caused to be placed, left or discharged in or near any waters of the Lake from a watercraft in such a manner or quantity as to create a nuisance or health hazard or pollution of such waters, by any person or persons at any time whether or not the owner, operator, guest or occupant of a watercraft or other marine conveyance. Subd. 8. Prohibited Equipment. a) Sirens. Sirens may not be carried or used on any watercraft other than patrol watercraft. Any siren carried or used in violation of this subdivision may be removed and seized by the sheriff and shall thereupon become the property of the county in which seized and may be used or disposed of as the county board may determine. b) Official Flags. No watercraft other than an authorized water patrol boat or other police watercraft shall use or display a police, sheriff or law enforcement officer's flag, or any device designed to simulate such a flag. Subd. 9. Failure to Provide Proof. Upon request of a licensed peace officer, sheriff's deputy, a special deputy of the Hennepin County Sheriff's Water Patrol, or a Minnesota Conservation Officer, the operator of a watercraft shall produce for inspection any equipment required under subdivisions two, three and four of this section or as required by Minn. Stat. § 86B.501 (as amended) and Minnesota Rules 6110.1200 subparts three, four and five (as amended). Failure to produce the required equipment for inspection upon request is a violation of this code. Section 3.041. Personal Watercraft Subd. 1. Prohibition. It is unlawful for any person to operate a personal watercraft or for the owner thereof to permit the operation of a personal watercraft on the Lake in any way which is contrary to the provisions of this Code or the laws, rules or regulations of the state. Subd. 2. Personal Flotation Devices. No person shall operate or ride on a personal watercraft unless wearing a United States Coast Guard approved Type I, II, III, or V personal flotation device. Subd. 3. Hours of Operation. No person shall operate a personal watercraft between one hour before sunset and 9:30 a.m. the following day. Subd. 4. Speed. No person shall operate a personal watercraft at greater than slow no-wake speed within 150 feet of any shoreline, swimmer, anchored boat, person fishing, mooring, dock or other water structure. Subd. 5. Operation Within 300 Feet of the Shoreline. No Sec. 3.041, Subd. 6 (Rev. 6-99) person shall operate a personal watercraft at a speed in excess of 5 miles per hour or at a speed which results in more than a minimum wake between 150 feet and 300 feet of the shoreline unless the personal watercraft is being driven perpendicular to the shoreline and to or from the nearest point of water 300 feet from the shoreline or parallel to the shoreline from one location to another in a manner which is not repetitive. Subd. 6. Automatic Cut-off Device. No person shall operate a personal watercraft which is equipped by the manufacturer with a landyard-type cutoff switch unless the landyard is attached to the person, clothing or personal flotation device of the operator.

Wake Jumping. No person operating a personal watercraft shall jump the wake of another watercraft within 150 feet of that watercraft. Subd. 8. Careless Operation. A personal watercraft must at all times be operated in a reasonable and prudent manner. Maneuvers which unreasonably or unnecessarily endanger life, limb or property, including, but not limited to weaving through congested boat traffic or swerving at the last possible moment to avoid collision shall constitute careless, reckless or grossly negligent operation within the meaning of LMCD Code Section 3.01, Subd. 2. Subd. 9. Rental. Any person who offers personal watercraft for rent: (a) shall not rent a personal watercraft, regardless of the horsepower, to any person who is less than 16 years of age or who is 16 years of age or over but less than 18 years of age and not in possession of an operator's permit required by law. (b) is required to provide a summary of the laws and rules governing the operation of personal watercraft and to provide instruction regarding safe operation to any person renting personal watercraft. The instruction provided to a renter must cover the laws and rules governing personal watercraft as well as the actual operation of the personal watercraft itself; and (c) is required to provide a United States Coast Guard approved Type I, II, III or V wearable personal flotation device to all persons who rent a personal watercraft, as well as all other required safety equipment. Subd. 10. Prolonged Operation. No personal watercraft shall be operated in a single area for more than thirty consecutive minutes. A person in control of such watercraft shall be subject to citation. A single area is defined as an area of the Lake which is so small that the noise emanating from personal watercraft operated continuously within it is liable to be a nuisance or cause substantial annoyance to residents of one or more shoreline properties during all of the time of such continuous operation. Section 3.05. Watercraft Inspections. Subd. 1. Testing Stations. The district may establish one or more watercraft testing stations for the purpose of testing and inspecting watercraft using the Lake or to be used on the Lake, to Sec. 3.05, Subd. 2 (Rev. 6-99) determine whether such watercraft comply with the health and safety regulations of this Code. The Board of Directors of the district shall, by resolution, establish service charges to pay for the costs of such inspection. Subd. 2. Inspection on Order of Sheriff. The sheriff may direct any watercraft on the Lake to be inspected at such testing station, after due written notice thereof shall be first given to the owner of such watercraft or the owner's agent. If it is determined that such watercraft complies with the provisions of this ordinance, the inspector shall issue a certificate which shall be in the form of a decal, to be displayed on the exterior hull of the watercraft at a location where it can be readily seen without boarding the watercraft. Inspection certificates shall expire on December 31 of the year in which they are issued. Subd. 3. Inspection Without Notice. If the sheriff has reasonable and probable grounds to believe that a watercraft being operated on the Lake does not meet the requirements of this ordinance with respect to its equipment, the sheriff may request permission to inspect such watercraft. If the operator of the watercraft consents to such inspection being made the sheriff may thereupon make such inspection or cause such inspection to be made. If consent to such inspection is refused by the operator of the watercraft, the sheriff may order such watercraft to be inspected as provided in Subd. 2 of this section. Subd. 4. No Operation Pending Inspection. No watercraft which is ordered to be inspected as provided in the provisions of this section shall thereafter be operated on the Lake until after an inspection certificate has been obtained, showing that such watercraft has been inspected and is equipped in accordance with the requirements of this ordinance and Code; provided, however, that nothing herein shall prevent the operator of the watercraft from subsequently going from the place of launching or harborage of the watercraft directly to the watercraft inspection station, by appointment, for the purposes of obtaining a compliance inspection. Subd. 5. Operational Tests. Apart from such inspection the sheriff may direct the operator of any watercraft on the Lake to display the lights, fire extinguishers, noise muffling devices, life preservers, and horn, whistle or bell on the watercraft, and to demonstrate that they are in good working condition. Subd. 6. Noise. If the sheriff has reason to suspect that a boat is exceeding noise limitations, or is capable of exceeding noise limitations, he may direct the operator to traverse a noise pollution test course at any location selected by the sheriff, at full throttle or at such lesser speeds as the sheriff may direct. Refusal to submit to such a test is a misdemeanor. Subd. 7. Emergencies. If the sheriff encounters a condition on any watercraft which constitutes an immediate hazard such (Rev. 6-99) as overloading or imminent hazard of fire or explosion, he may direct the occupants of such watercraft to take immediate emergency measures to eliminate such hazard. Failure to obey such emergency instructions is a violation of this Code.

However, it is not the intent of this Section to inhibit the freedom of speech component of exotic dancing. Instead, this Section represents a balancing of competing interests: reduced dangerous or criminal activity through the regulation of exotic dancing versus the protected rights of exotic dancers and their patrons. Subd. 2. Definitions. The following definitions shall apply to words used in this Section: a. "Adult Cabaret" shall mean exotic dancing and/or other live entertainment which is distinguished or characterized by an emphasis on sexually oriented performance. b.

Subd. 3. Conditions. Adult cabaret or exotic dancing may only be performed on licensed watercraft subject to the following conditions: a. A licensed watercraft is subject to the conditions in Section 3.07 and this Section, all other provisions of this Code, and of other applicable regulations, ordinances and state law. b. A licensed watercraft may not also be licensed for the sale of alcohol under Chapter 5 of this Code. c.

The operator of a licensed watercraft is responsible for the conduct of his or her place of business and the conditions of order in it. The act of an employee of the licensed watercrafts is deemed the act of the operator as well, and the operator is liable for all penalties provided by this Section equally with the employee, except criminal penalties.

Sec. 3.09, Subd. 1b (Rev. 9-99) Subd. 1b. Issuance of Permit. The Board of Directors recognizes that the conduct of special events on the Lake may require the operation of watercraft or other vehicles or the placing of structures for limited times in a manner which would otherwise be prohibited by this Code, or which restricts the use of the Lake by the general public. In determining whether to grant or deny the permit or grant a permit with restrictions or conditions the Executive Director or Board may consider any or all of the following: a) whether the special event will involve use of the Lake outside of the applicant's authorized dock use or mooring areas; b) whether the special event will adversely affect the quality of the water of the Lake; c) whether the special event will involve the violation of speed restrictions or Rules of the Road; d) whether the special event will require the placing of temporary buoys or structures in the Lake; e) whether the special event could be conducted on land or on waters other than Lake Minnetonka; f) whether the special event will cause a hazard to navigation or other safety hazard; g) whether the special event will require supervision or control by the sheriff's water patrol or other law enforcement officers; h) whether the special event will create additional noise on the Lake; i) whether the special event will restrict or limit the use or enjoyment of the Lake by the general public; j) whether the special event is open to the general public as participants or as spectators; k) whether the time or place of the event will cause it to have an undue adverse effect on boat density or intensity of Lake use; l) whether the special event has the written permit approval of the Sheriff and any other appropriate law enforcement officials, any municipality which may be affected with respect to parking, zoning, law enforcement, or any other municipal concern; m) whether appropriate insurance is provided; Sec. 3.09, Subd. 1b n) (Rev. 9-99) n) whether the time or place of the event will have an undue adverse effect on any other scheduled events; o) whether the event complies with conditions of policy guidelines adopted by resolution of the LMCD Board. p) whether the event will increase the risk of the introduction of exotic species to the Lake or make control of exotic species on the Lake more difficult. Subd. 1c. Appeal of Decision of Executive Director. In the event the Executive Director a) refuses or declines to waive the application deadline set forth in Subd. 1, or b) imposes restrictions or conditions pursuant to Subd. 1a. which are not accepted by the applicant, or c) refuses or declines to grant the permit after consideration of the criteria set forth in Subd. 1b., the application shall be forwarded to the Board for review. Upon receipt and consideration of such recommendation the Board may affirm, reverse or modify the decision of the Executive Director. Subd. 2. Purpose. The Board has determined that it is necessary and expedient for the protection and preservation of the Lake to adopt rules and regulations to prevent the introduction to the Lake of exotic species of plants and animals from infested waters. The Board has further determined that special events on the Lake, such as sailing races, boat parades and displays, waterski contests and fishing contests, have a greater potential for introducing such exotic species because such events encourage participation by boaters who would not otherwise come to the Lake and who may come from infested waters or areas, including areas out of the State of Minnesota, where exotic species are more prevalent and where boater education about the spread of exotic species is not well established. Accordingly all special events which include participation by any watercraft which are not stored on the waters of Lake Minnetonka shall be subject to the requirements of Subdivisions 3 through 9 of this Section. Subd. 3. Licensees shall provide copies of all informational and educational materials provided by the District to all participants in the special event prior to the commencement of the event. Such information shall include, as a minimum, a summary of Minnesota laws relating to the transportation of exotic species, a list of waters known to be infested by undesirable exotic species, a summary of the requirements of Subdivisions 3 through 9 of this section, educational materials about exotic species, and instructions for contacting the District and arranging for watercraft to be inspected and cleaned. Within five (5) working days of the issuance of a license, the licensee shall contact the Executive Director to discuss arrangements and scheduling for inspection and washing of participating watercraft. Subd. 4. Entry Forms. It shall be unlawful for any licensee to allow participation by any person who has not submitted to the Sec. 3.09, Subd. 4 (a) (Rev. 6-99) licensee an entry form prior to participation in the event. It shall be unlawful for any person to participate in any special event or to launch a watercraft in advance of participation in any special event without first having submitted an entry form to the licensee. (a) Each entry form shall contain the following certification form which shall be completed for each watercraft participating in the event: "I acknowledge receipt of a list of waters infested by exotic species of plants and animals prepared by the Lake Minnetonka Conservation District. [Participants must sign one of the following:] 1. I certify that the watercraft in which I will participate in this special event will not have been in any of the listed infested waters for at least thirty (30) days prior to participation in the event; or, if the watercraft has been in such infested waters within such thirty (30) day period, it will have been completely dry (including all live wells, bilges, and other parts of the watercraft which are capable of holding water) for a period of at least five (5) consecutive days prior to participation in the event. By my signature below I acknowledge that Iunderstand: 1) that a false certification is a crime under the ordinances of the Lake Minnetonka Conservation District (LMCD); and 2) that if the watercraft identified below is placed in infested waters within thirty (30) days prior to launching in Lake Minnetonka and is not completely dry for five (5) consecutive days during that period, I will be required by law to have the watercraft inspected and cleaned by personnel approved by the Sec. 3.09, Subd. 4 (a) 2. (Rev. 9-99) LMCD.

By my signature below I acknowledge and understand that it is a crime under the ordinances of the Lake Minnetonka Conservation District (LMCD) to participate in the event without first having the watercraft inspected and cleaned by personnel approved by the LMCD, securing a written certification that the watercraft has been so inspected and cleaned from the LMCD, and providing the certification to the organizers of the event prior to my participation. Name (please print):_____________ Signature:_______________________ Date:____________________________ State of registration of watercraft: ___________________________ Registration number of watercraft: ___________________________ Subd. 5. Prohibitions on Participation. It shall be unlawful for a participant in a special event: Sec. 3.09, Subd. 5 (a) (Rev. 9-99) a) to make a false certification on the form described in subdivision 4; b) to participate in a special event with a watercraft which has been in waters identified in the list of infested waters provided by the District within thirty (30) days prior to the special event and which has not been inspected and cleaned by personnel approved by the LMCD unless the watercraft has been completely dry for five (5) consecutive days during such thirty (30) day period; c) to participate in a special event without first providing to the event licensee either: i) a certification in the form prescribed in subdivision 4(a) 1; or ii) a certification from the District that the watercraft has been inspected and cleaned by personnel approved by the LMCD. Subd. 6. Prohibitions of Licensees. It shall be unlawful for a licensee to allow participation in the special event by any person in a watercraft for which the certification required by subdivision 5 has not been provided prior to commencement of the event. Subd. 7. Records. Licensees shall maintain in a central location copies of all entry forms and certifications of all participants. Such records shall be retained for one year after the special event and shall be made available for inspection by the Sheriff or District personnel upon request. The application for a special events license shall state the name, address and telephone number of the person responsible for the collection and retention of such records. Subd. 8. Duties of Executive Director. The Executive Director shall: a) make available to any licensee upon request copies of information specified in subdivision 3. b) make available boat inspection and cleaning services at no charge to all participants in special events either with LMCD employees and equipment or by authorizing other qualified persons to provide such services.

Subd. 9. Certificate of Waiver. In circumstances under which the risk of infestation of exotic species is low or adequate watercraft inspection and washing services are not available, the Executive Director or the Executive Director's authorized designee may issue certificates of waiver stating the date of the waiver and the special event for which it is applicable, the watercraft registration number, and the signature of the Executive Director or designee. Such certificate shall satisfy the requirements of subdivision 5c)ii) of this section. Subd. 10. Violations. Violating any provision of subdivisions 3 through 7 of this section is a misdemeanor.
