The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service awarded a $120,000 Project Grant under the Fish and Wildlife Management Assistance program (CFDA 15.608) to the South Dakota Game Fish & PK Wildlife Division. The grant supports the implementation of a watercraft inspection and decontamination program in 2024 for Western South Dakota Bureau of Reclamation and Forest Service reservoirs. The goal is to mitigate the spread of zebra mussels from infested waters into these reservoirs, including Shadehill, Belle Fourche, Deerfield, Sheridan, Angostura, and Pactola. Key activities include operating inspection stations 10 hours per day, 7 days per week in 2022 and continuing mitigation efforts for surrounding waterbodies now that zebra mussels have reached the Western region. The project addresses priorities of the Quagga and Zebra Mussel Action Plan (QZAP) to protect Western ecosystems, limit the spread of invasive mussels, and increase compliance with prevention regulations and public outreach efforts.
