BOATERS: New Regulations, Mandatory Inspections in Effect!
The Colorado Division of Wildlife reminds boaters that new regulations are now in effect for the 2009 boating season. All out-of-state boats and resident boats that go out-of-state and return to Colorado must pass a state-certified inspection for zebra mussels and other aquatic nuisance species prior to launching in any Colorado lake, reservoir or waterway. In addition, boats that have launched on any of the Colorado lakes or reservoirs where mussels have been detected must pass an inspection before launching at a new location.
The new boating regulations are part of a statewide effort to stop the spread of zebra/quagga mussels and other aquatic nuisance species in Colorado's lakes and reservoirs.
