Good evening...Little help here please.

I usually carry concealed down here in SC when I'm fishing.  I have a SC CCHP.  I want to make a trip to NC to take some buddies fishing at Harris Lake.  I've only been there once, years ago.  I know that it's a nuke plant lake.  Does that mean that the whole property is federal land?  Would I be able to open carry on the lake?  I know there's a bouy string preventing you from getting too close to the plant.  Is there a no weapons sign posted at the boat ramps?  Thanks for your help.

I don't know the laws about that lake but it is a privately owned lake not Federal Property.  Progress Energy owns it and all the land around it unless they have sold that money pit to someone.  Since it is a nuke plant there may be some Fed Regulations.
