They have been doing it along I-40 from Havasu back into California for a number of years. The Zebras are in the Colorado River system, and verified in Lake Mead and Lake Havasu. No doubt they are in Lake Mojave then as well. This could get funny for sure. Realistically, all my ballast could be done with sacks and I only have a belly tank anyway. For sure my bilge retains a bit of water. It's dang hard for them to check over the whole boat, opening everything up and such. I certainly don't wanna be a problem and transport these things, but what to do?? I would hate for ballast to be outlawed to try and prevent the spread and I can't say for sure if it really could spread that way.
