Mich. Admin. Code R. 281.1104 - General
Rule 4.
(1) The
state uniform waterway marking system has been developed to provide means to
convey to the small vessel operator, in particular, adequate guidance to
indicate safe boating channels by indicating the presence of either natural or
artificial obstructions or hazards, marking restricted or controlled areas, and
providing directions. The uniform waterway marking system is suited for use in
all water areas and designed to satisfy the needs of all types of small
vessels. It supplements and is generally compatible with the United States
coast guard lateral system aids to navigation.
(2) The uniform waterway marking system
consists of 2 categories of aids to navigation which are:
(a) A system of regulatory markers to
indicate to a vessel operator the existence of dangerous areas as well as those
which are restricted or controlled, such as speed zones and areas dedicated to
a particular use, or to provide general information and directions.
(b) A system of aids to navigation to
supplement the federal lateral system of buoyage.
