                               CLEAN LAKES ACT
    39-6410.  LAKE MANAGEMENT PLANS. (1) Whenever the council has obtained and
accepted an examination and baseline study, it shall make the same available
to all appropriate and interested city, county, health district and state
agencies and to any interested or affected lake agencies and to the interested
individuals or lake associations. For a period of ninety (90) days after
dissemination, any interested agency or person or association may submit
written suggestions, comments or proposals for a lake management plan or
recommendations to the council.
    (2)  The council shall thereafter prepare a lake management plan and
recommendation which shall be completed within one hundred eighty (180) days
after dissemination of the examination and baseline study.
    (3)  The council shall identify sources and types of pollution within the
planning area and identify existing and potential programs and measure ways in
which this pollution might be abated, and summarize the past successes of
these efforts, including notable voids in funding, regulatory powers or
interagency coordination.
    (4)  The council shall identify areas in which public use of a lake might
be enhanced by the acquisition of scenic or conservation easements or
development of existing publicly-owned land.
    (5)  The council shall identify undeveloped areas within the planning area
and discuss potential future uses of these areas and the implications of these
various uses on a lake.         (6)  The council shall provide copies of its
lake management plan and recommendation to all agencies, persons and
associations who have indicated an interest in the examination and baseline
study. The council shall thereupon provide for a public hearing upon its lake
management plan and recommendations with notice given as provided in section
67-6509, Idaho Code.
    (7)  After receiving the information obtained at the public hearing, the
council shall make such changes and revisions as it deems necessary and then
within thirty (30) days after such public hearing shall deliver such lake
management plan and recommendations to the appropriate board of county
commissioners and to any other city, council, health districts, state or
federal agency which the council deems should take action.
    (8)  Upon receipt of such lake management plan and recommendations, the
county and other included agencies shall act thereon with such further public
hearings as may be deemed appropriate within ninety (90) days after receipt of
such lake management plan and recommendations. The county shall make formal
written response thereto stating in detail what action has been taken.
    (9)  Any county shall have the authority under chapter 65, title 67, Idaho
Code, to adopt a lake management plan or to adopt land use ordinances which
apply to one (1) lake or more and are operative in, upon or around such lake
or lakes without application in other areas within the county.
