Dock Talk.

It is common during the summer season to have current or future lakeshore owners inquire about the subject of docks.

Typical questions include: “Can I have a dock? Are there limitations on the size and shape of my dock? Who regulates dock construction and use? Where can I get additional information?”

Fortunately, the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources is on the case.

Please see their online information brochure here. Please see their Frequently Asked Questions document here. Also, please note their (not necessarily necessary) General Work Permit here.

Would you like additional information? Please let me know.
