The Regional Watercraft Inspection and Decontamination Data Collection System is a data sharing application developed by Colorado Parks and Wildlife that can be used in conjunction with a quagga/zebra mussel prevention program. It is a free, customizable data collection solution for watercraft inspection and decontamination programs and is used in several western states.

Staff from Colorado Parks and Wildlife and California Department of Fish and Wildlife will cohost a webinar describing the system and its applications Friday, February 22, 2019 from 1:30 - 2:30 p.m. (PST).

To register for the webinar please contact Rich Bireley at Richard.Bireley@wildlife.ca.gov for webinar information. If you are unable to participate on this date please contact Rich to be notified directly about additional webinars later this year.
