The Georgia Department of Natural Resources investigated a boating incident Sunday that involved a vessel getting flooded by the wake of a passing 32-foot cruiser on Lake Lanier. The incident took place near Flat and Balus creeks, said Sgt. Mike Burgamy, the DNR’s Lake Lanier supervisor. Flat and Balus creeks are near Balus Creek Park, which is operated by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and sits at the end of Mountain View Drive in West Hall.
