Aquatic Invasives in the Watersheds: Protecting Quabbin’s Water Supply, Fisheries and Recreation
In 2010 DCR Quabbin instituted a boat seal program to help protect the reservoir against aquatic invasive species (AIS) in reaction to news surrounding zebra mussels. Now in its 14th year, the DCR AIS Program also includes annual surveys and educational opportunities to help monitor watershed health and increase awareness surrounding AIS. Join DCR Aquatic Biologists Tayelor Gosselin and Shasten Sherwell as they discuss what makes a species invasive, impacts AIS have on water quality and recreation, and DCR’s management and preventative efforts.
