Sec. 1. P&SL 1913, c. 157, §2, 2nd ¶, as amended by P&SL 1975, c. 133, §2, is further amended to read:

The restricted area is adjacent to surrounds each of the Portland intakes, so called, and is bounded on the east and south by the shore of Sebago Lake and on the west and north by an arc, the center of which is a point marked by a stake on the shore of Sebago Lake, which point is midway when measured along said shore from the intersection of said shore and the intake pipe from the 1925 intake and the intersection of said shore and the intake pipe from the 1952 intake, and the radius of which arc is includes the area within an arc whose radius is 3,000 feet around the open end of each such intake pipe within Sebago Lake.

SUMMARY

This bill protects the water supply maintained by the Portland Water District by changing the way that the restricted area around the intake pipes in Sebago Lake is measured. The bill provides for the restricted area to be measured from the intake pipes themselves instead of from a point on the shore.
