If you boat on a lake infested with Eurasian watermilfoil or other aquatic weeds, what is the best way to prevent the plants from spreading somewhere else?
Inspectors will ask you where and when your watercraft was last used.
Inspectors rely on both your answers to survey questions as well as a visual and physical inspection of the watercraft to make their risk determination.
What will greatly reduce the time it takes to inspect your watercraft for AIS?
Aquatic invasive species can make shoreline areas hazardous and uninviting for recreational users and waterfront property owners.
A prevention program can help stop aquatic invasive species from being introduced.
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.
