What are the different zones on Lake Hartwell and what do they mean?

This is a question that I have been asked recently and I thought I would update my Blog with my response. Lake Hartwell has three different color codes it assigns different areas around the lake. The most desirable is Green. Green zone sections of the lake can have a dock (if they meet the qualifications the COE has), you can underbrush the corps property, and you can put in a cart path. The second is Yellow Zone. Yellow is not dockable, but you are allowed to do some minor underbrushing. The third is Red Zone. Red is not dockable and you are not allowed to do any improvements to the corps property at all. I have attached a link to the Corps of Engineers Home page that provides lots of good information this and other things on Lake Hartwell.
