What kinds of problems have the property owners faced?
Although most people who use the Sandy River are responsible, some break the law and trespass on private property well above the line of ordinary high water and leave litter. Many property owners who have deeds indicating that they own to the center of the stream or to the bed of the river not only find these behaviors offensive but believe that anyone who uses the bed and banks of the Sandy River fronting their property is trespassing.
