A DNR decontamination unit at the Sand Point public access in August.

This fall, there will be a decontamination unit from the DNR stationed at the public boat launches on both Upper and Lower Prior lakes for lake users, including residents taking their boats out of the water for winter storage. The DNR will clean boats for FREE to help prevent the spread of aquatic invasive species (AIS) through September 28th. The public accesses are located at Sand Point Beach on Lower Prior Lake and at Dewitt Ave. on Upper Prior Lake.
