The U.S. Coast Guard, the
Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources and The Fond du Lac County
Sheriff’s Office Boat Patrol are coordinating efforts to step up enforcement of drunken
boating as the July Fourth holiday approaches. They're calling it Operation
Dry Water. Beginning this weekend, law enforcement will be on the water randomly checking
for intoxicated drivers. The legal blood alcohol limit for operating a boat is the same
as driving a car — 0.08. Sheriff’s Lieutenant Bill
Tadych says drunken boating has consequences, including loss of boating and driving
privileges and even jail time.
