This Hydrosite watercraft decontamination system was installed in 2007 and is still operating today. This is just one of many systems supporting aquatic invasive species (AIS) prevention at Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, Utah/Arizona. The system is connected to utilities (power, water and gas only, no sewer) that were routed to a parking area. This dual Hydropad lane system satisfies high volume decontamination demands of watercraft visiting Lake Powell.

Hydro Engineering, Inc. started pioneering mobile watercraft decontamination systems in 2008. Products have evolved and innovative solutions continue to address new aquatic invasive species (AIS) control requirements. A Hydromat wash water collection system with a trailer mounted AIS decontamination system that includes wash water capture and onboard wash water recycling is illustrated.

This system is all above ground. It includes a 20' wide by 40' long patented Hydropad decontamination wash rack platform and a Hydrosite container based equipment room. Aquatic invasive species decontamination is performed on the wash rack platform. Wash water is collected, treated, filtered and recycled back to the decontamination system to be used over and over in the process. System conserves water because no wastewater is discharged. This system was deployed in 2008.

Hydrosite integration with the patented Hydropad wash rack provides the best available technology for effective watercraft decontamination and wastewater management. Aquatic invasive species contaminates are rendered inert and then separated and removed as solid waste. Liquids are treated and recycled by this zero wastewater discharge system. Modular and all above ground setup simplifies installation and relocation if required.
