Title

ANS boat interdictions

Description

Colorado Parks and Wildlife coordinates a broad multijurisdictional watercraft inspection and decontamination network to protect waters from invasive zebra and quagga mussels and other invasive species. Recreational watercraft is the main vector of introduction for this harmful invader. Colorado is a headwater state and there are no mussels upstream. State certified inspectors repeatedly intercept watercraft infested with mussels.
