Report aquatic invasive species

Protect Nebraska waters

Reporting aquatic invasive species (AIS) in Nebraska is essential for protecting the state’s water ecosystems, preserving biodiversity, and ensuring the long-term vitality of recreational water activities. AIS can disrupt habitats, degrade water quality and damage infrastructure. Early detection through public reporting enables timely management efforts to control and prevent the spread of these harmful species. This helps preserve recreational activities like fishing and boating, avoid costly control measures, and protect Nebraska’s water resources for future generations. By staying vigilant, residents play a critical role in safeguarding the health and sustainability of the state’s aquatic environments.
