17 REGISTRATION OF NON-MOTORIZED WATERCRAFT Program Description AIS decal for nonmotorized boats <18 Canoes, kayaks, etc Some western states: $5 per vessel
18 MANDATORY INSPECTIONS WHY IS THIS THE PREFERRED ALTERNATIVE? Strongest protection for the lake Institutes C-D-D Standard Inhibit juvenile, non-visible species Compliance is mandatory, does not rely on good faith
19 HOW WOULD THIS PROGRAM WORK? All trailered boats entering Lake George must be inspected Five regional inspection stations around lake Standard of Clean, Drained, and Dry (CDD) Decontamination of boats and trailers not meeting C-D-D standard
20 WHERE WOULD INSPECTION STATIONS BE? Five stations envisioned around Lake George Locations based on launch data, traffic patterns, and available work area
21 HOW WOULD THIS PROGRAM WORK? Sealed after Inspection When removed from lake, boat secured to trailer Frozen boat program Upon next return to Lake George, if seal is intact, inspection is not necessary If seal is not present (i.e. launched at another lake), new inspection is required
22 WHAT IS THE IMPACT TO THE BOATING PUBLIC? Average out-of-way travel time to inspection site: 0-10 minutes Inspection time: 5-7 minutes Decontamination time (if required): minutes Cost for Inspection and possible decontamination: $40 range
