Clean Boats Clean Waters (CBCW)

You may have noticed Clean Boats, Clean Waters (CBCW) boat inspectors checking boats at the Wheeler Lake boat landing, or maybe you are a volunteer or are interested in learning more.

What is CBCW?

Clean Boats, Clean Waters is a Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources program implemented locally at lakes across the state. Here at Wheeler Lake, trained boat inspectors perform voluntary boat and trailer checks, hand out informational brochures and educate boaters on how to prevent the spread of aquatic invasive species.

How are we able to do this?

Wheeler Lake has received DNR grants to support our program.  In 2024 we have a dedicated CBCW Inspector at the landing on weekends and during high-volume holiday weeks from May to September.
