Since May 2009, it is forbidden to control any vegetation (lawns included) from the first five meters (5m) from the natural high water mark line anywhere in the municipality of Val-des-Monts. Disobeying the By-law can result in substantial fines, varying from $500 to $4,000. For more information, visit the municipal web site at www.val-des-monts.net.
The Federation is convinced that the by-law will have a positive impact on the quality of our lakes.
