Suggestions Made (or Using Howard Prairie County Judge Earl Miller, Friday noted other recom mendations made for use of Howard Prairie' water area for recreation, but said the county court has not acted on the recommendations. A buoy line will be stretch ed from approximately the north end of the dam and will extend in a straight line to a point of land north of Wil low Springs creek. Waterskling will be restrict ed to the cove, according to the recommendations made by representatives of sporting groups which will use the lake. No Restrictions There will be no restrictions on bank fishing during water skiing periods, from the south east shoreline of the main island, since this area will be used probably mainly for launching skiboats, or for take off and landings. The waterskiing and fast boating restriction to the south side of the buoy line would include the area east of the main island. Fast boating should be interpreted as trav eling at speeds more than 10 miles per hour, Subcommit tee Chairman Jim Eberhart, Ashland, explained. Boats traveling over 10 miles per hour should remain at least 100 feet from shore lines, the group recommend ed. This would not apply to the east and north shores of the island where waterskiing starts and finishes. Purpose of the speed limit is to protect swimmers.
