The state of Maryland actually owns the lake bed, the water, and a Buffer Strip of land around the entire lake. The Maryland Department of Natural Resources (DNR) manages and patrols the lake. Brookfield Power currently owns the dam and hydro-electric facility. The Maryland Department of Environment regulates the amount of water Brookfield Power can draw down from the lake, ensuring a consistent boating season.
