What other things should I consider before building a dock?

• <div><p>Here are a few other considerations before you build, even if you're convinced you're in compliance with the law:</p><ul><li><p><b>Are you damaging the environment?</b> Bodies of water are often delicate ecosystems, and building a dock can be destructive and disruptive to the wildlife.</p></li><li><p><b>Are you blocking access? </b>Lots of people like to use a lake, so you need to make sure your dock doesn't block public access to the water.</p></li><li><p><b>Can you enclose the dock? </b>Just because you can build a dock doesn't mean you can build any dock you want. Some areas don't allow enclosed docks, for example.</p></li><li><p><b>Do you need to follow any specific rules or guidelines?</b> Check with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association (NOAA) Office for Coastal Management for any guidelines you’ll need to follow, including size and type restrictions.</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

This repair was for an outside frost free faucet that turned freely but did not do anything to turn water on or off. Obviously the shaft was broken and needed replaced. A repair that would be a very well paid job at $100. When the quote came in for 4 times that I just about fell off my chair.
