State and Local Regulation

Pertaining to Aquatic Weed Suppressors

DEP/DNR

We do not have the complete story but here is what we have as of July 2006. Most of the states we've contacted either do not require permits for a standard Lake Bottom Blanket installation or any permits required are primarily for information purposes and the permit cost is nominal.

Here is the state by state story. If you have any question please contact your local DEP/DNR

Canada (Ontario): Approval not required if less than 100 sq. meters and south of Hwy 7 from Lake Huron to Sharbot Lake or south of Hwy 401 from Kingston to the eastern Ontario border. ?? Unsure if this is correct But information sent to us by the The Trent-Severn Waterway, says a permit is required. But the permit they talk about says nothing about Weed barriers...?
