About this file
This document is a self-inspection permit and informational materials related to preventing the spread of quagga and zebra mussels into California waterways. The permit is for boaters using eight reservoirs and lakes managed by various California state and local agencies. It requires boaters to certify that their vessel has not been used in infested waters within the last 30 days or has been properly cleaned, drained, and dried if used in those waters. Signing the permit acknowledges the threat mussels pose and affirms the boat does not pose a risk of spreading them. Related materials provide contact information for agencies managing the water bodies, describe mussel impacts, and note legal codes requiring compliance with the prevention program.
The federal contract opportunity is for mussel dog inspection services at New Melones Reservoir, to be conducted by the Bureau of Reclamation. No other details are provided on response timelines, award amounts, or other contractual requirements.
