Boats without a seal are required to be inspected and decontaminated by the Lake Tahoe Watercraft Inspection Program inspectors at an inspection station. Non-motorized watercraft must be Clean, Drained, and Dry prior to launch and can receive a free inspection and decontamination at any inspection station.
