Protecting Lake Taupo *

I confirm that I have taken the appropriate measures with, not being limited to, my boat, trailer, associated equipment, clothing and any other item which may be used in this regatta, which may have been in contact with infected waterways to prevent the spread of Didymo or other invasive weeds and pests into Lake Taupo. This includes, but is not limited to, ensuring any water has been drained from my hull prior to traveling to and launching on Lake Taupo. See this link for detail on cleaning your boat and equipment (https://www.mpi.govt.nz/outdoor-activities/boating-and-watersports-tips-to-prevent-spread-of-pests/check-clean-dry/). Golden Clams are an invasive species which have been found in the lower parts of the Waikato River. Any boat, trailer, clothing or other item which has been in the Waikato Controlled Area, must be treated prior to arrival at this Regatta in terms of the MPI guidelines which can be found on the MPI website here: https://www.mpi.govt.nz/biosecurity/exotic-pests-and-diseases-in-new-zealand/pests-and-diseases-under-response/freshwater-gold-clam/ If requested by the Organising Authority I will clean any equipment requested prior to sailing on Lake Taupo. I understand that failure to do this will result in my entry not being accepted for this regatta.

I, and a legal guardian, if aged under 18, acknowledge and confirm the above.
