I know that in the Royal Gorge district one needs a permit to operate a dredge on the Arkansas River up to 4in nozzle. Does the permit area include all streams and feeder creeks that lie within the Royal Gorge area? The permit states that highbanking can only be done at I think Woodys bar....is this true? Can we not highbank anywhere else.........or does it have to be listed on the permit as a valid claim area? hmm What are the regulations and season for the rest of the state. I believe no permit is required for most of CO. Does this mean that I can dredge and highbank in any open area as long as I don't create a significant surface disturbance? Thanks for any help. D
