Clean Boats Clean Waters Program Seeking Summer Mobile Boat Wash Crew

Aquatic invasive species primarily spread from one water body to another by "hitchhiking" on boats, trailers, and other equipment. You can help protect Michigan waters by teaching boaters about invasive species, giving demonstrations on proper boat cleaning, and conducting invasive species boater surveys to the public.

Through a cooperative agreement with the U.S. Forest Service and the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE), Michigan State University is leading a multi-year program to teach boaters how to reduce this risk by properly inspecting and cleaning their equipment.
