Interesting to hear about it from the other end of the pipe. Thanks for sharing that.
Guess some peeps will continue to get free powerwashes at the Ag Checks

In the Havasu paper this morning they have an article about the grant money for prevention of mussels. They plan to put a staffed wash station in at Windsor and have it operating by Feb. or March of 2014. That should be interesting!
Side note,,,,the inspection station east of Needles has reopened, from what I understand that someone crashed into one of the stations there that took out their computor system causing the shut down earlier this summer.

Here is some more concerning the Mussel deal. All boats leaving Windsor must have hull plugs pulled (Toons not included) which is actually a AZ state law, I understand, and no weeds on trailer. Now if we could get the lazy State Park employees to rake out the weeds that are floating in the water at the ramps that would really help. On Friday I had a pile of weeds hung up on the trailer of course I yanked them of which I have always done. This whole thing is a joke they are about 10 years to late! It just amazes me how stupid and lazy the Government really is.

Last weekend at Windsor ramp, boats and trailers were being monitored as they left and headed out on to London Bridge Road. Only 23% of the boats exiting had their drain plugs pulled, and 24% of the boats and trailers were observed with some kind of vegetation hanging from them. This percentage is not acceptable to our government overseers. Expect increased 'motivation' on boaters to comply in the weeks ahead.

Our "government overseers" are about 7-10 years to late as I stated before. Their "motivation" is another example to steal money from boaters. Why do we have to pay for a decon stations here? Are there going to be decon stations at the Marina, site six, Havasu Landing, Cattail,,,,,,etc.,,,,,,,,,,,,,,the answer to that is no! What a waste of money and resources but than again I don't expect much from "our government overseers"! It's just so pathetic! They can't even maintain the docks probably at Windsor.

They are wasting lots of money. The fight is to keep them out of the State water Project system. Its too late for the Colorado. We are getting them in our treatment plant in Yorba Linda. Here's a pic of a bunch of dead quaggas in one of our ozone contactor chambers.

Yes it is. The plant has been online since 1963. However, the giant "new" building has only been around for 2 years or so
