> Lake Hume was officially opened on 21 November 1936, by the Governor General, Sir Ronald Munro Ferguson.
> Cost $11.1 million at the time of construction.
> Lake Hume supplies water for downstream irrigation and urban use and environmental flows, which generates economic activity ultimately worth billions of dollars annually.
Use of the lakeLake Hume is a water storage under control of the State Water Authorities. Their principal requirements for boating on the storage are:> Boats with sleeping
accommodation and/or a toilet are prohibited on this storage.
> Permission of the water authority is needed to have a boat mooring on the storage.
> Camping is prohibited except in approved camping areas.
Boating regulationsFor your safety and that of others all boating is subject to State regulations. Just like the road laws you must know these boating laws and can be fined for breaches. A few key points:> Registration - all power boats
(with some exceptions for low powered vessels in NSW) require registration.
> Safety equipment is compulsory.> Even where speed limits are not
marked, distance-off regulations apply whenever you are within set distances from the shoreline, other boats, swimmers, anglers, structures and so on.
> Special regulations apply to water skiing - in particular a proper observer is compulsory and skiing after dark is prohibited.
> Refer to relevant State boating regulations for more information.
Boating licence requirementsLake Hume is divided at the Bethanga Bridge between Victoria and NSW for boating only. All vessels south of the Bethanga Bridge are operating in Victorian waters. All vessels north of the south part of the Bethanga Bridge are operating in NSW waters. Reciprocal licencing, registration and safety equipment regulations apply between both states.
NSW WATERSIf you wish to drive a power boat on NSW waters at a speed of 10 knots or greater you must have a current NSW boating licence. If you wish to drive a Personal Water Craft (PWC) such as a Jet Ski or
Wave Rider you must have a current NSW Personal Water Craft Licence, regardless of the speed you travel at. In NSW a PWC can only operate between sunrise and sunset.
VICTORIAN WATERSA boat licence is required for any person operating a powered vessel in Victorian waters regardless of the speed of the vessel. A PWC licence is required to operate a personal water craft in either state.For further information regarding boating regulations/licensing contact either NSW Maritime or Transport Safety Victoria.
Fishing regulationsA Victorian fishing licence is required to fish in Lake Hume. Victorian fishing regulations apply to the entire lake up to Seven Mile Creek at Talmalmo.To report fishing offenses please contact, Victorian Fisheries on 13 FISH (133474).
CampingUnless otherwise indicated by signage, camping and overnight stays are prohibited on the NSW and Victorian foreshore reserves.
Picnics and pollution> Keep all litter on board and
dispose of it in appropriate receptacles when on shore.
> The Public Reserves around Lake Hume have varying degrees of facilities. Help to preserve them by restricting vehicle access to authorised tracks and parking areas.
> Glass containers are potentially an extreme hazard. Please don’t bring glass to Lake Hume.
> Most of the NSW shoreline is privately owned land. You will need the owner’s permission to enter if you wish to picnic at such places.
