Kings Bay is getting crowded, the rules haven't caught up (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Thirty-five years ago, Citrus County faced a problem that sounds remarkably familiar today: too many people were converging on the same small piece of water in Kings Bay. The county's research, which Crystal Riverâs Manatee Element was modeled after, explains the issue in the 1980s. âThe presence of large numbers of boats in the South Bay alters the way manatees use this critical habitat by confining them to smaller areas,â the document read. The study concluded that the disruption signifi
