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. A total of 281 boats with attached adult zebra or quagga mussels have been intercepted coming into Colorado’s waters from out of state at watercraft inspection and decontamination stations. The infested watercraft were intercepted at Barr Lake, Blue Mesa, Boulder Marine, Boulder Reservoir, Boyd Lake, Canon Marine, Carter, Cherry Creek, Chatfield, Clear Creek, Crawford, Denver CPW Office, Dillon, Electra Lake, Eleven Mile, Frisco Bay Marina, Granby, Grand Lake, Grand Junction CPW Office, Great Lakes Marine, Green Mountain, Highline, Horsetooth, Jackson, John Martin, Lathrop, McPhee, Navajo, North Sterling, Pueblo, Ridgway, Rifle Gap, Roadside (SW Colorado), Ruedi, Shadow Mountain, Spinney Mountain, Stagecoach, Steamboat Lake, Strontia Springs, Sweitzer, Taylor Park, Trinidad, Turquoise, Vallecito and Williams Fork. Zebra and Quagga Mussel Positive Interdiction Sites in Colorado cpw.state.co.us �ZEBRA MUSSELS Where are the infested mussel boats coming from? It is often difficult to determine the exact location of infestation due to the frequency of boating use. Also, numerous interceptions are used boat purchases in which the previous boating history is not known. For these reasons, the source of infestation for more than twenty interdicted watercraft is unknown. The remainder of the infested vessels were coming from Arizona, Arkansas, California, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, New York, Nevada (Lake Mead), Oklahoma, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Texas, Utah (Lake Powell), Wisconsin, and the Great Lakes.
