So do you have to wear a mask while on the water of COE lakes now?

Not unless there are federal law enforcement officers cruising around the lake checking. I’m “generally” compliant with rules and regulations(mandates) but when common sense has to get in the way....I’m no longer responsible for my actions.😁. Let’s hope this is just a premature conjecture on your part! But with the way the election went....who knows? 🤔😷🤪

The order is for inside of “federal buildings”. I suppose if can you find a lake inside of a federal building then it may apply.

Actually it is worded on "federal property", thus the water and the land under it is "federal property"

Semantics

"This executive action will direct the agencies to take action to require compliance with CDC guidance on mask wearing and physical distancing in federal buildings, on federal lands and by federal employees and contractors," said Biden counselor Jeff Zients, who will be the administration's Covid-19 response coordinator.“

So we do or don't have to wear a mask while alone on federally controlled waters? Just checking to make sure I conform, wouldn't want to catch anything from myself while I am on federal property

Technically the water is federal property

If ya don’t wear a mask, the fish is illegally caught, therefore not weighable in a tourney.

There are only two FEDERAL lakes in the state of Texas.
That would be Meredith and Amistad.

Not semantics. Misquote on your part...or leaving out facts on purpose to better support your sarcastic comment about “lakes inside federal buildings”. You voted democratic didn’t you? Welcome back!

It says in compliance with “CDC guidelines”... so it’s really a no brainer, and most privately owned businesses and buildings already require it and have for many months. But for those of you who don’t know what the basics are of the CDC guidelines are, here is a refresher. I don’t think fishing out on a lake would be considered being in a large crowd, but you never know.

Does Texas Parks and wildlife patrol COE waters ?
Who patrols and makes regulations for Amistad and Meredith ? Both of these lakes are National Parks .. The Governor has no jurisdiction over Amistad when the Feds shut her down.
