00:00:15,173 --> 00:00:17,060
- Hi, I'm Tim Macallister

00:00:17,060 --> 00:00:19,090
chief of operations for
the Fort worth district.

00:00:19,090 --> 00:00:20,760
US Army Corps of Engineers.

5
00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:22,960
Our park rangers and I would
like to remind visitors

6
00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:25,720
to take great responsibility or suffer.

7
00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:28,570
- This is a unique time
in our nation's history.

8
00:00:28,570 --> 00:00:31,460
We fully understand
that a trip to the lake

9
00:00:31,460 --> 00:00:33,940
may be a welcome change for many people

10
00:00:33,940 --> 00:00:36,440
and an opportunity to unwind and relax

11
00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:37,640
during a stressful time.

12
00:00:38,700 --> 00:00:41,890
Because of this, we are
experiencing extremely large numbers

13
00:00:41,890 --> 00:00:44,663
of visitors throughout
the week and weekend.

14
00:00:45,770 --> 00:00:47,820
- We want to welcome everyone to enjoy

15
00:00:47,820 --> 00:00:49,670
the outdoor recreation opportunities

16
00:00:49,670 --> 00:00:51,458
that Fort Worth District has to offer.

17
00:00:51,458 --> 00:00:55,120
But, please understand that
some parks may have to limit

18
00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:56,360
the total number of visitors

19
00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:58,043
if overcrowding becomes an issue.

20
00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:01,227
- Please consider these tips
to help us manage the parks

21
00:01:01,227 --> 00:01:03,990
for the safety and enjoyment of everyone.

22
00:01:03,990 --> 00:01:06,100
Number one, with increased visitation

23
00:01:06,100 --> 00:01:08,140
comes increased, waste and trash.

24
00:01:08,140 --> 00:01:10,010
Please take your trash
to the nearest dumpsite

25
00:01:10,010 --> 00:01:11,660
or take it home with you.

26
00:01:11,660 --> 00:01:13,590
- Number two, park only in marked spaces

27
00:01:13,590 --> 00:01:15,930
and in such a way that does
not limit access to staff

28
00:01:15,930 --> 00:01:17,320
and emergency responders.

29
00:01:17,320 --> 00:01:18,410
If parking is unavailable,

30
00:01:18,410 --> 00:01:20,760
please consider visiting
an alternate location.

31
00:01:21,930 --> 00:01:24,670
- Number three, respect your parks.

32
00:01:24,670 --> 00:01:28,061
Vandalism sustained to the
facilities is costly to repair.

33
00:01:28,061 --> 00:01:30,720
It can create unsafe situations

34
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:33,110
that may result in park closures.

35
00:01:33,110 --> 00:01:35,750
- Number four, respect the environment.

36
00:01:35,750 --> 00:01:39,362
Impacts on the natural resources
can not be easily ended up.

37
00:01:39,362 --> 00:01:42,612
(noise of a trash can)

38
00:01:43,580 --> 00:01:46,150
We strive to operate parks
in a sustainable manner

39
00:01:46,150 --> 00:01:49,020
for the enjoyment of future generations.

40
00:01:49,020 --> 00:01:51,610
- And number five, respect
your fellow visitors.

41
00:01:51,610 --> 00:01:54,470
Increased stress can sometimes
lead to errors in judgment

42
00:01:54,470 --> 00:01:56,640
by following local laws and regulations,

43
00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:59,440
we can ensure emergency
responders are better equipped

44
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:00,641
and available to help

45
00:02:00,641 --> 00:02:03,453
and handle emergency situations as needed.

46
00:02:04,328 --> 00:02:06,830
- The Fort Worth District
stands ready to welcome you

47
00:02:06,830 --> 00:02:09,109
to recreate at our 25 lakes.

48
00:02:09,109 --> 00:02:11,180
By helping us control overcrowding

49
00:02:11,180 --> 00:02:13,410
and some of the challenges it can create.

50
00:02:13,410 --> 00:02:15,550
We can ensure the continued
operations of our parks

51
00:02:15,550 --> 00:02:18,260
for people to enjoy
for many years to come.

52
00:02:18,260 --> 00:02:20,630
Also, please remember
to wear a life jacket

53
00:02:20,630 --> 00:02:23,640
When in, on or around the water.

54
00:02:23,640 --> 00:02:24,577
- Stay safe.

55
00:02:24,577 --> 00:02:25,518
- Stay safe.

56
00:02:25,518 --> 00:02:26,464
