Tips for a
Speedy Invasive
Species Boat
Inspection
How Boaters can Prepare

The better prepared you and your boat are
for an inspection, the faster it will go!

cpw.state.co.us

�What can you do to help make the entrance inspection
go faster at the ramp?
• Have a green seal and matching receipt ready to present to the
inspector.
• Make sure the bilge plug is removed and available to be replaced
at the end of the inspection.
• Remove any tarps and straps prior to entering the inspection site.
• At the inspection site, turn off the vehicle, set the parking brake,
get out of the vehicle and assist the inspector with the inspection.
• Open all compartment hatches including but not limited to:
live/bait wells, bilge areas, anchor compartments, equipment
compartments and any other compartments that hold items that
have come into contact with the water body.
• Have the battery switch turned on so that the engine can be
lowered and pumps can be activated.
• Have the anchor and ropes out of their compartments for
inspection.
• If using live aquatic bait, please have the bait receipt out and
available for the inspector.
• Clean, Drain, and Dry.

What can a boater do to help make the exit inspection
go faster at the ramp?
• At the inspection site, turn off the vehicle, set the parking brake,
get out of the vehicle and assist the inspector with the inspection.
• Remove the bilge plug.
• Lower the motor.
• Open/drain all compartments including but not limited to:
live/bait wells, bilge areas, anchor compartments, equipment
compartments and any other compartments that hold items that
have come into contact with the water body.
• Activate all pumps (bilge, live well, ballast tank, etc.) to ensure
drainage.
• Have the anchor and ropes out of their compartments for
inspection.
• Place unused bait in the trash.
• Get a green seal and receipt to make the next inspection go faster.
• Remember to dry all equipment at home prior to the next launch.
• Clean, Drain, and Dry.  
Decontamination may be required when moving from positive
waters to negative waters and when the boat has no seal and
receipt. Boaters are encouraged to visit the CPW website for more
information and plan ahead for decontamination.
