Do you own a boat, canoe, kayak, or raft? Get On
Board with The Idaho Invasive Species Sticker
for Watercraft! |
June 23, 2016 |
The
Boundary Soil Conservation District wants to
remind you that under the Invasive Species Law,
any motorized or sail powered watercraft not
registered in Idaho and any non-motorized vessel
(canoe, kayak, raft, drift boat, etc.) need to
have an IISF sticker. Inflatable, non-motorized
vessels less than 10 feet in length are exempt
from this requirement. Vessels that have a valid
Idaho registration do not need an additional
invasive species sticker.
If you drive south of Bonners Ferry with your
kayak or canoe you must stop at the boat
inspection station at Samuels just like the
boats do! The annual sticker fees are $7 for
non-motorized and $22 for motorized (registered
out of state) vessels. The fees generated from
the sale of these stickers help to fund
prevention efforts through education and
inspections, and monitoring efforts. You can
purchase your stickers from Far North Outfitters
or at any boat station location. For more info
go to
invasivespecies.idaho.gov.
