Harveys Lake Police has been in contact with PA Boat & Fish Commission. At this time due to the water level and debri in the water, boat traffic is being restricted to a NO WAKE ZONE for the entire lake. This is to prevent damage to boat houses and docks from the waves created, as well as damage to boats underway by debri.
At this time it is unknown how long this restriction will be in place.
