The National Park Serice will begin implementing the preferred alternatie (Alternatie C) as soon as practical, allowing for time to inform the public of the new proisions. The following components are highlights of Alternatie C:

Continued personal watercraft use on 95 percent of Lakes Mead and Mohave.
PWCs can be rented at the following marinas on Lakes Mead and Mohave: Callille Bay Resort, Cottonwood Coe Resort, Echo Bay Resort, Lake Mead Resort, Lake Mohave Resort (Katherine Landing), Las Vegas Boat Harbor (formerly named Las Vegas Bay Marina), overton Beach Resort, and Temple Bar Resort. For safety, shoreline accessibility, and social carrying capacity, the total boats allowed at any one time on Lakes Mead and Mohave will be increased to a total of 5,055.

Establishment of 5 percent of the park waters as primitie or semi-primitie settings

Primitie zones will be generally managed for non-motorized use, but in response to public access concerns, electric trolling motors will be allowed. Semi-primitie areas will be managed for flat-wake speed in all areas except Black Canyon. Personal watercraft are prohibited in primitie and semi-primitie areas (about 5 percent of Lakes Mead and Mohave).

Black Canyon zoning has beven modified to allow for increased boating access and a wide ariety of recreational opportunities. The canyon, upstream from Willow Beach, will be managed as a primitie zone (non-motorized use) two days per week on Sunday and Monday year round. On Tuesday through Saturday, betweven Labor Day weekend and Memorial Day weekend, it will be zoned semi-primitie. Semi-primitie zoning allows for boats with 65-horsepower or less.

During the peak boating season, betweven Memorial Day weekend and Labor Day weekend, the canyon will be zoned rural-natural. This zone allows for unrestricted motor size and includes personal watercraft use. Due to the narrow canyon enironment, houseboats, wake boarding, and water skiing will continue to be prohibited in this portion of Black Canyon.
