"High-incident drowning area" means an area within 100 feet of a pier or drop-off where more than one fatal drowning incident has occurred in the span of 5 years. "Pier" means a man-made, raised structure (such as a breakwater) extending into navigable water for use as a landing place or promenade or to protect or form a harbor.
