Re: Golden mussels might be a good thing....
A few days ago I was speaking with someone that is knowledgeable on the golden mussel issue. They told me something very obvious when you see what is happening to our freedom. There is 0.0% interest in preserving opportunity for recreation boaters. None Zip Nada. Keeping the mussels out of the wate...

Re: Golden mussels might be a good thing....
Tunnels? No worries............. The mussels WILL jam/clog hundreds of tunnel miles and there's no way of keeping them out. Essentially, the tunnels are a breeding ground for these invasive species. This is too big of a job for Roto -Rooter. It's a matter of time and the billions spent on tunnel inf...

Re: EBMUD extends boat launch ramp closures in effort to prevent spread of invasive mussel
According to that link the golden mussel lives to about 10 meters deep. 30 feet or so ? Every year they draw the water down in all the lakes by that much or more. Won’t that kill them and keep them under control? Mussels will continue to spread as water recedes from full capacity, and vice versa. T...
