GREAT FALLS, Mont. (NMB) – Certified boater training for Tiber Reservoir is now available online.
While Fish, Wildlife & Parks offices are closed to the public, persons interested in applying for the Certified Boater designation must complete the training online at CleanDrainDrymt.com.
Watercraft owners who primarily recreate on Tiber Reservoir can receive the Certified Boater designation. The online training course provides participants with information about the invasive mussel threat; how to appropriately clean, drain and dry watercraft; and why it’s important for everyone to take responsibility in protecting Montana’s waterbodies.
This program is open to Montana residents who live east of the continental divide and who boat primarily on Tiber Reservoir. Watercraft owners will receive decals to place on their watercraft and trailer following completion of the online training.
Certified Boaters can access all public boat ramps on Tiber Reservoir and are expected to do a self-inspection every time they exit the waterbody to make sure their boat is clean, drained and dry.
The program is designed to decrease volume at decontamination stations and allow a focus on boars traveling elsewhere.
For more information, call 444-2440.
