Please be aware of new AIS requirements in Utah

Dan Keller

UT DWR Fish Biologist
I know this has been discussed before, however as a reminder, ALL boaters using Utah waters, whether a Utah resident or nonresident, must take the annual Utah mussel-aware boater course and have proof of course completion in your launch vehicle (a printed copy or downloaded to your DWR Hunting and Fishing mobile app). This includes users of all kinds of watercraft, including motorized boats and human-powered kayaks, canoes, paddleboards, etc.

Boaters with motorized watercraft must also enroll in the Utah AIS Program and pay an annual fee — $20 for Utah residents and $25 for nonresidents — through the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources.

Visit Utah's AIS Webpage for more details. Thank you for your compliance and helping spread the word, we don't want anyone to be caught unaware of this change when visiting Lake Powell or other Utah water bodies.
