Out of state boater decal - invasive species

I know for many years they have had volunteers at the Glendale docks quite often questioning people launching boats about the last body of water the boat was in.

I have taken boats over to Lake George several times and they have an inspection building at the launch ramps that you must stop at for approval. The inspectors even have you lower the drive to drain the water out of it prior to launching.

Whatever helps to keep the lake clean is a good idea. It is a resource that we would all miss if the water quality declined to the point that it was cloudy or picked up an odor. The sticker fee and registration fees seem like a small price to play for preservation.

Milfoil is a huge environmental and economic issue--millions are spent each year in NH on mitigation. All of that milfoil came from boats that had been out of state.
