Through August, Nebraska Game and Parks Commission conservation officers will conduct special enforcement patrols focusing on state recreation areas and other Commission-managed properties throughout the state.
The special patrols will focus on reducing the potential for alcohol-related boat and vehicle accidents around state parks and wildlife management areas.
The efforts will focus primarily on weekends from May 23 through Aug. 31, with conservation officers conducting high-visibility patrols on and off the water.
Visitors to those areas are reminded that alcohol consumption on park and wildlife areas is prohibited on all roadways, designated swimming areas and parking areas. Consumption of alcohol also is prohibited between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. and where posted with signs.
“We encourage people to enjoy outdoor recreation safely and responsibly, helping maintain family-friendly state park and wildlife areas for all to enjoy,” Game and Parks Law Enforcement Division Administrator Jeff Clauson said.
A grant from the Nebraska Department of Roads Office of Highway Safety will help fund this special enforcement effort.
