Science Advice on “Clean, Drain, Dry and Decontaminate” treatments and protocols to prevent the introduction and spread of aquatic invasive species.: Fs70-6/2021-043E-PDF

"To prevent the introduction and spread of Aquatic Invasive Species (AIS), many government and non-government organizations operate Clean, Drain, Dry (CDD) programs. CDD is an established best management practice targeted towards the general public and owners or operators of watercraft, trailers, and equipment used in and near water. CDD programs require watercraft operators to undertake cleaning, draining, and drying steps to reduce the likelihood of transporting AIS on their equipment. In situations where there is a higher risk that AIS could be transported, an additional decontamination step may be applied (CDD+D). Decontamination generally includes chemical or temperature treatments which may vary depending on the target species or disease"--Context, page [1].
