00:00.120 --> 00:01.390
- I'm Park Ranger Phillip Sliger

00:01.390 --> 00:04.280
with U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers Nashville District

00:04.280 --> 00:06.230
and all 10 lakes across the district

00:06.230 --> 00:08.610
have an issue with off-road vehicles.

00:08.610 --> 00:12.020
Such vehicles include ATVs, UTVs,

00:12.020 --> 00:14.190
automobiles, and dirt bikes.

00:14.190 --> 00:17.090
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
manages this public land

00:17.090 --> 00:18.810
for citizens to enjoy.

00:18.810 --> 00:20.680
Park rangers strive to protect

00:20.680 --> 00:22.943
the natural resources and the beauty.

00:24.130 --> 00:26.900
Off-road use destroys vegetation,

00:26.900 --> 00:30.380
which causes erosion that
runs into our lakes and rivers

00:30.380 --> 00:32.340
and pollutes our drinking water.

00:32.340 --> 00:35.280
Operation of vehicles
off authorized roadways

00:35.280 --> 00:36.940
can result in a federal citation.

00:36.940 --> 00:39.933
Remember, keep your wheels on
the street or use your feet.
