Reason:  To prevent the spread of the Golden mussel, discovered in the Sacramento - San Joaquin Delta in October 2024.

Threat:  Golden mussels are a high - risk invasive species, spreading rapidly and thriving in diverse environments, includng waters with low calcium. 

Impact:  Pose a significant threat to infrastructure , recreation, ecosystems and water quaility.

Important Notice about Aquatic Invasive Species: Quagga and Zebra Mussel Prevention

We are committed to safeguarding our waterways through our Quagga and Zebra Mussel Prevention program. These invasive species pose a serious threat to our ecosystem, economy, and recreational activities. To prevent their spread, we are asking all boaters to inspect and preform cleaning procedures before and after launching.

Please find the mandatory self-inspection forms for boaters here. We kindly ask that all boaters complete the form and bring it with them when checking in at the kiosk to help save time. For your convenience, forms will also be available at the kiosk.

For more information, see NID's webpage "Quagga and Zebra Mussel Prevention and Monitoring Program."

By following these guidelines, boaters play a vital role in preserving the health and biodiversity of our lakes and rivers. Together, we can ensure that these destructive species do not endanger our natural resources.

*Fire restrictions are regulated and enforced by the USFS*Please check their website for current restrictions*
