People who live on Lake Whatcom or Lake Samish and keep their boat on the lake and never take it anywhere else do not need to buy an AIS Permit or to get their watercraft inspected.
Zebra and quagga mussels can attach themselves to hard surfaces but can be removed quite easily with a damp cloth.
If a bait well or a hold on your boat has water in it, but the water looks clean, do you still need to drain and dry the hold before launching your boat?
Adult quagga and zebra mussels can survive out of the water for up to 30 days.
Fragrant waterlilly has been found to be growing in Lake Samish.
Zebra and Quagga mussels are already present in Whatcom County lakes?
If you get a wire seal attached to your boat and trailer when leaving Lake Whatcom, and then come back to Lake Whatcom another day with the tether still intact, will you need to stop at a staffed inspection station?
