What You Can Do

When recreating in Montana, protect our waters by following these aquatic invasive species laws.

The three steps of Clean, Drain, Dry greatly minimizes the risk of spreading Aquatic Invasive Species into new locations.



CLEAN: Completely remove all mud, water, and vegetation before leaving the access area. DRAIN: All water from watercraft and equipment. DRY: Your watercraft and equipment. Aquatic invaders can survive only in water and wet areas.

Take precautions when engaged in these activities:
