Arrowhead Lake Association Fireworks Support Appreciated and Needed - please join the Arrowhead Lake Association on July 4, 2009 to celebrate our pride in our nation and our freedoms. The highlight of the Lake Arrowhead summer season is the Fireworks Show. Lake Arrowhead without Fireworks is like any other lake without water.

Important Notice to Lake Arrowhead Boat Owners

WHAT TO EXPECT WHEN YOU LAUNCH YOUR BOAT IN 2009

Quagga and Zebra Mussels pose a very real threat to our lake and our water system. The mussels have the potential of destroying the ecosystems within the lake and doing hundreds of thousands of dollars in damage to our water distribution system and your boat's cooling system. Accordingly, we need your help to keep your lake free of the mussels.

NO BOATS MAY BE LAUNCHED ON LAKE ARROWHEAD without being certified free of invasive mussels by a registered ALA storage contractor or passing an on-site inspection by ALA staff.

THIS IS A ZERO TOLERANCE PROGRAM

The Arrowhead Lake Association requires that all boats, canoes, and kayaks launched on Lake Arrowhead undergo a complete on-site inspection for possible Quagga Mussel contamination. Boats that are not clean, drained and dry will be subject to a 14 day quarantine prior to being permitted to launch. Since the ballast tanks on some wakeboard boats cannot be visually inspected, they must have been in commercial storage with a registered ALA storage contractor or must be commercially decontaminated. For information on decontaminating your vessel prior to your launch day, please contact our office at (909) 337-2595. At the time this notice is being written, the ONLY recognized decontamination station is at Big Bear Lake. The ALA is working toward a local option.

Avoid delays at the launch ramp by doing the following:

CLEAN your trailer, boat and accessories of dirt, algae, weeds and mussels,
DRAIN bilges, anchor lockers, storage lockers, and live bait wells,
DRY the interior and exterior of the boat including storage and bilge areas, and
Bring your boat to the ramp CLEAN, DRAINED and DRY.

If there is standing water in any compartment of your boat (bilge, equipment storage areas, bait wells, under seats, engine compartments or anywhere else) YOU WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO LAUNCH YOUR BOAT!!!

If you store your boat for the entire winter with a registered ALA storage contractor who can certify that the boat has been in "DEAD" storage where you have not had access, your boat will be launched without delay.

If you store your boat at home or with a non-registered facility, your boat must be CLEAN, DRAINED and DRY. Additionally, ballast tanks and bladders must be determined to be dry by visual inspection or must be commercially decontaminated with 140 degree Fahrenheit water.

For more information regarding boating on Lake Arrowhead, members may contact the Arrowhead Lake Association at 909-337-2595.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP!
