The Nebraska Aquatic Invasive Species Program was created
in 2015 by the Legislature. Income from resident boat
registrations and nonresident boat stamps has generated
$187,741 as of October 2016, which is to be used for aquatic
invasive species efforts including inspections, sampling, and
management efforts. Efforts will be made during the winter
of 2017 to further educate nonresident boaters via various
media venues.
