That's a load of crap too, Bob. Print out the above, as I did, and highlight it for them..... Have copies ready to deliver in my glovebox. I would have it in hand to discuss with the habormaster as well.....The Public Trust Doctrine states that all rights in the tidelands and the water itself are held by the state "in trust" for the benefit of the public......
