[QUOTE="Traxion, post: 107780, member: 983"] I've gone through the WYGF private inspector training. It is 8 hours long and LEGIT. It was extremely eye opening and informative. The WY program is aggressive but yet flexible in many ways. The WY legislature set aside good money as "seed" money for the program. The sale of R and NR Aquatic Nuisance Species (ANS) stickers goes towards this fund as well. With this money the state has several full time ANS folks along with tons of seasonal help. They also have the wash down equipment to take care of any decontaminations necessary. You show up at a reasonable time May through September and you'll run into a check station on the main roads into the state. If you are outside of this window, call up the guys at the GF and they will meet you to decontaminate. They are VERY flexible and helpful with this. I can tell you from this training that this crap (ANS) is coming. SD just had another lake that is infested with mussels found last week. We also have a few others that are "questionable". There is no where to go but down with this issue unfortunately. SD (and ND) need to get much more aggressive. First, $$$ needs to be put aside for this. I'll pay for an ANS sticker like WY does if that helps keep them out. And, education of the public needs to go mainstream. A website doesn't do it anymore. And, big penalties for anyone who is caught with them on their boat. [/QUOTE]
