Lake Norman Marine Commission

The Lake Norman Marine Commission is a government organization responsible for overseeing and managing the recreational activities and water safety on Lake Norman, also known as the Inland Sea, in North Carolina. With its 520 miles of shoreline and 10 public boat access areas, the commission ensures that visitors can safely enjoy the lake's 32,500 acres of surface area, which holds 3.4 trillion gallons of water and reaches a depth of 130 feet. The commission works closely with Duke Energy, marinas, and other government agencies to maintain a navigational marker system, promote boater education, and address important lake issues. Appointed by the counties bordering Lake Norman, the five members of the Lake Norman Marine Commission are easily accessible to the public and welcome comments, suggestions, and volunteers. They strive to fulfill their responsibilities outlined in the North Carolina State Statute by managing the lake's shoreline area, ensuring public recreation, and prioritizing water safety. With their dedication and efforts, the commission aims to create a safe and enjoyable environment for families and friends to responsibly experience the beauty and recreational opportunities offered by Lake Norman.Generated from the website
