Ok, here is the latest on Glendale reservoir and boats. According to the Franklin County Soil and Water Conservation District, here is the policy for this reservoir and boats.
"
Glendale Reservoir update: The barricades will be open tomorrow May 15 at 7:00 a.m. A verification checkpoint will be staffed 7 days a week from 7 am to 7 pm The cost for verification per watercraft will be $10.00 for Franklin county residents and $20.00 for out of county. The license plate of the tow vehicle and driver license will prove residency. No cash accepted just debit/credit cards and local checks.
The verification staff will be asking for proof of a ISDA inspection form/passbook for any watercraft that has left the county AND a 2016 invasive sticker attached to vessel or Idaho boat registration. The ISDA form must then be displayed on the dashboard of tow vehicle. County residents need to visit the ISDA station within 5 days of launching or have an ISDA trailer/boat orange tag.
ISDA stations are open all daylight hours. One is located at Highway 91 in Franklin City. Others at state line roads throughout Idaho."
And to further clarify it, I asked the question does it mean that each time you leave the county you have to have your boat inspected. And the answer I got back is yes, each time you leave the county you have to get a new inspection and the nearest one to Preston and Glendale is south on the Utah border at Franklin. There are no stations in east Idaho except Malad and Franklin and at Henry's lake. Otherwise, everyone is kind of screwed having to travel one he** of a long way out of your way to get an inspection each time you want to go there to fish.
