PUBLIC LAUNCH RAMPS

Our community is faced with a serious threat from infestation by the Quagga/Zebra mussel.  In an effort to prevent that from occurring,  all boaters are required to complete a questionnaire form before launching.  Should our staff identify a suspect boat, it will be inspected and possibly decontaminated using a hot water pressure washer. To manage this initiative, the District will be restricting access to the public launch ramps based on availability of trained staff.  Boaters will be able to retrieve their boats from the East Ramp after the gates close providing their trailers and tow vehicles are parked at the facility before the gate closes. We ask that everyone recognize the importance of these measures and cooperate.  We believe these efforts are a minor inconvenience compared to the protective value they will provide.
