SECTION 300:35-11-6. Buoys

(a)   No buoy shall be placed or replaced on the waters of GRDA without a permit from GRDA. All buoys shall be purchased from GRDA at cost and installed at the expense of the requestor. The buoy will be installed to specifications provided by GRDA. The GRDA Police will inspect the installation to ensure compliance with all applicable GRDA rules and Oklahoma law. The requestor will be responsible for continuing maintenance and liability for the buoy.

(b)   All buoys placed on the lakes shall be commercially manufactured units purchased from the GRDA and shall have reflective tape or paint on the top side. Any buoy not maintained in its proper location shall be subject to removal by GRDA. Any buoys, lighthouses or other types of markers placed with the permission of or installed by GRDA are primarily warning devices for the convenience of the public and should not be relied upon solely as navigational aids. GRDA assumes no liability or responsibility for loss or damages to life or property arising out of the public's reliance upon said devices.
