What is the best way to dispose of aquatic plant fragments that you remove from your boat?
Boating is a primary pathway for the introduction and spread of aquatic invasive species to and from Whatcom County lakes.
Zebra and Quagga mussels are already present in Whatcom County lakes?
Aquatic invasive species can cause long-term taste and odor issues in drinking water supplies.
Do you need to purchase an AIS permit at the beginning of each year's boating season?
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?
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.
