The East Boat Ramp area is well-used by boaters as they launch and pull up their boats to the shoreline to load gear and people. Due to the heavy use, the shoreline eroded and narrowed; runoff from the large parking lot was piped toward the reservoir without any sort of treatment, further eroding beaches. The Basin Authority implemented a series of improvements to stabilize the beaches, create rocky points, and capture parking lot runoff in rain gardens for settling and infiltration prior to entering the reservoir.
