Don't most Six Flags water parks named Hurricane Harbor charge a separate admission, and most Island Kingdoms don't?

Also, I've always been saying SFNE needs a new entrance. Is it going to be a separate entrance to the park (near Batman,) or just a new entrance to the waterpark so they can charge us? I hope they don't, because i do like to go to the waterpark at least one of my visits w/ a season pass, but there's no way i'm paying extra for it.
Unless people state sources, i won't believe anything until i see it with my own eyes.

The commonweatlh of Mass. loves S:ROS but most are getting sick of Six Flags New England. The squished-up, crowded, compact, not-for-the-entire family anymore park is starting to get on everyone's nerves. And along with the rip off parking and high enterance fees the in park prices have gotten rediculous. If they choose to add an admission to the water park, I can't wait to see their attendance go down.
I agree. While I was on MassLive about that article, I started reading the Agawam message boards and no, they don't like the park too much.

Look at SFNE. Only 8 coasters, the park isn't that big, and it's only been 3 years since Six Flags took over. I just don't think they're ready yet. Plus, there is a parking issue. I don't think the parking SFNE has now can take a second park! Unless they use that land they bought last year down the street, they won't have enough parking for two parks.
A separate admission will probably drop attendance. With the extreme prices to get into the park and for parking, the locals must hate this. Plus, after three years, it seems that they could get used to the rides and what they give. So if they did go into SFNE, they'd want to just chill in the waterpark after a couple of rides, and now that the waterpark is getting expanded, it would be a lot better. But if they charge separate admission, everyone has to choose between the rides or the water rides.
I was also looking at Hurricane Harbor's website (Dallas/SFoT) and they have a ton of rides! 20 are listed, and that doesn't include the multiple slides on each ride structure. SFNE barely links Island Kingdom on their site or list any of the waterpark rides (I only saw 1 listed in the rides list). If Six Flags is going to make Island Kingdom into a Hurricane Harbor, don't you think they'd post it on their website, because that is pretty big news! The website doesn't even tell of the new expansion this year!
Plus, with Hurricane Harbor New Jersey close by, wouldn't a Hurricane Harbor New England hurt NJ's marketing area? They do attract some New Englanders, and with a new HH in NE, that would take out that area. If this did happen, the NJ park would have to try to get the guests from south of them, but can't go far because of White Water Atlanta, SFKK, and SFA.
I just don't see it happening, or myself wanting to see it happen.

It has just been approved, not announced.

The construction might be delayed because of the nasty weather up here.
