So the decon equipment is only available by appointment only with 10 boats a weekend launching.
(Certainly convenient for Park Staff, not so much for boaters)
Wonder if you should schedule now for the month of July when 200 boats a day will be launching?
For two years Government agency's have been implementing no laws and regulations, standing people on ramps handing out flyers, educating boaters about the problem, checking the parking lot and leaving tickets for vehicles without the certification on the dash, parking decon equipment at reservoirs with no mussel problem and no additional staff or budjet for it's proposed use.
But when the mussel actually arrives they close one ramp and clean boats by appointment only.
This is certainly an all out effort to stop the mussels from spreading.
Might as well just open the Island ramp with no decon equipment at all.
