Rick Tamayo (Interior Coordinator for Marine Spill Response Corporation) briefs Operations personnel on posted boating‑hazard signage at Grayrocks Reservoir. He suggests there may be submerged structures and debris in nearshore areas and shallow coves that could pose risks to skiffs and small workboats. Mr. Tamayo further emphasizes that Grayrocks Reservoir’s open prairie setting makes it highly vulnerable to rapid wind shifts, strong gusts, and short‑period wind‑driven waves capable of overwhelming smaller vessels. He directs all boat operators to exercise heightened caution while transiting, maintain continuous situational awareness, and remain in constant radio contact with shore‑based personnel for real‑time weather updates. This is a Drill!
