Clean & Drain Bill
As many know, it has been illegal to transport evasive species within the state for many years. Such is not the case in all other states, while some states have even more comprehensive laws. The one main difference is that this bill would require most boats to drain the bilge and any other compartment because it is pretty simple to remove plants like Milfoil, but viable reproductive amoeba from things like Zebra Mussels cannot be seen without a microscope. The real problem is one of enforcement.
