following season. All non-motorized paddle craft must be sprayed before each use but does not require

a quarantine.

Staff reserves the right to reject application entries if any of these criteria are not met or other

documents are not in order.

STEP FOUR – GET YOUR BOAT CLEAR TAGGED - This is a reminder to bring your boat in for

inspection and tagging no later than Monday, March 26, 2018, to be ready for the May 1, 2018,

opening day. If your boat is still tagged with a clear, Westminster tag from last season, you do not

need to bring your boat in for inspection.

Boats that have been stored on site at Standley Lake during this off-season and are tagged, or boats that

stop by Standley Lake and are inspected/tagged by Monday, March 26, 2018 will then have time to meet

the quarantine period and will be cleared to launch by opening day (May 1, 2018). These boats will be

clear-tagged to show that they have met the quarantine requirements and can launch onto Standley at

the start of the 2018 boating season. If you would like to have your boat inspected and tagged prior to

the boating season, you may do so during normal operating hours, 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., at the

Standley Lake Nature Center.

After Monday, March 26, 2018, boats that have not been tagged will be required to go through the

full inspection, spray washing, and quarantine process. Boat engines or motors need to be working

(running) in order for the inspection and engine flush to be conducted. Please allow up to one hour for

staff to complete this process. Spray station is open by appointment only prior to May 1, 2018.

Appointments will be available on a limited basis. Call (303) 425-1097 for more information or to set

up an appointment.

All boats must have a valid 2018 boat registration sticker affixed to their boat to launch at Standley

Lake. No exceptions will be given.

Standley Lake Alcohol Policy – Read carefully!

The staff at Standley Lake and the Westminster Police Department would like to remind permit

holders and their guests that ALCOHOL IS NOT PERMITTED anywhere in the park, including the

lake, campgrounds, and surrounding areas at any time. There is concern that this regulation is

being disregarded on a regular basis by some of those entering the park, which violates the

conditions of park permits. Any violations will result in an automatic summons/citation being

issued and ejection from the area.

Any season permit holder who receives a second summons

for an alcohol violation will lose their permit.

The Westminster Police Department, in close cooperation with Standley Lake Staff, will be

strictly enforcing alcohol ordinances and regulations.

No warnings will be given.

In addition, City Ordinances and State Statutes regarding disturbances, disorderly conduct,

assaults, and inappropriate conduct towards Standley Lake Staff will also be strictly enforced.

Please note that Park Regulations dictate that any two (2) violations of park rules will result

in loss of permits for the remainder of the season without a refund.

We would also like to remind permit holders that they are responsible for their guests’

behavior and that violations of regulations or ordinances by guests may result in ejection and

the loss of permits. It is the intent of the staff and the Westminster Police Department to keep

the Standley Lake recreation area a safe and enjoyable place for those who use it. Please help

us with this effort by complying with all regulations.

Thank you for your cooperation,

The Standley Lake Staff and

Westminster Police Department

City of Westminster Standley Lake Regional Park

Aquatic Nuisance Species Protection Program

The following protocols were instituted by the Westminster Water Quality Department.

Standley Lake Regional Park Aquatic Nuisance Species Protection Program quarantine periods will be as follows:

May 1-September 30 = 35 days There are no powerboat sprays after August 25

This quarantine period is necessary due to data that has shown that veliger larvae can survive for approximately 30 days in the residual water of trailered watercraft. Colder average daily temperatures relate to the length of time Zebra or Quagga mussels may be able to live once the boat is out of the water. Even though boats are inspected and washed, the quarantine periods are an important part of the efforts to protect Standley Lake and also allow recreational boating.

For those boaters exclusively using Standley Lake, there will be very little impact to your visits. A boat tag will be attached to the boat and trailer when you have been cleared or when you are leaving the lake for the day. If the tag is intact when you return, you will be allowed to launch your boat. Tags must be removed by Standley Lake staff only.

Boats that have been stored on site at Standley Lake during this off-season and are tagged, or boats that stop by Standley Lake and are inspected/tagged by March 26, 2018 will then have time to meet the quarantine period and will be cleared to launch by May 1. These boats will be clear-tagged to show that they have met the quarantine requirements and can launch onto Standley at the start of the 2018 boating season. If you would like to have your boat inspected and tagged prior to March 26, 2018, you may do so during normal operating hours, 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., at the Standley Lake Nature Center. The inspection and spray washing program is available only to boats using Standley Lake. Boat engines or motors need to be in working order and able to be started in order for inspection and engine flush to be conducted. Sprays will be done by appointment only prior to May 1, 2018.

Please bring your boat in for an inspection and tagging no later than Monday, March 26, 2018, to be ready for the May 1, 2018, opening day.

REMEMBER:

Intact Clear (Westminster) Tags = Go. You may boat on Standley Lake

Red Tags = Stop. You must complete quarantine process before launching onto Standley Lake.

No Tag / Broken Tag = Stop. You must complete the inspection/cleaning/quarantine process before launching onto Standley Lake. No exceptions.

Standley Lake does not accept any seals from other agencies.

2

Boats that have been launched on another lake are required to go through the inspection, cleaning and quarantine (drying) process.

Inspections and cleanings take approximately 35 to 45 minutes. The quarantine period is 35 days over the course of the boating season. Once boats meet the initial quarantine period, they will be allowed on Standley Lake with no delays each time they return, provided they have not been to another lake. The only time they have to be re-inspected or quarantined is when the tag on the boat has been disturbed or the boat has been on another lake. At this point it will be inspected, cleaned, re-tagged and quarantined for the appropriate amount of days (35) before it will be allowed on the lake.

There are some boats that use Standley Lake that have bladder-water ballast systems. Those boats will require inspection and additional safeguards to ensure the ballast systems are clean and do not have aquatic nuisance species larvae in them. If you own a boat with that type of system, please contact the staff at Standley Lake to learn about the requirements for your boat.

Recreational Boat Use Procedures:

Only Standley Lake staff can remove tags! - Do NOT remove your own tag!

No watercraft of any type (tubes, paddle boards, kayaks, canoes, rafts, etc.) will be allowed tolaunch without being sprayed. Failure to do so will result in a citation and confiscation of vessel.

All boats and trailers must be CLEAN and DRY.

All drain plugs must be removed prior to boat transport that day.

All boats will be quarantined (tagged) for a certain number of days (35) before being allowed tolaunch in Standley Lake.

Boats that don’t require quarantining, i.e., roof top, non-trailerable, etc., will be thoroughlyinspected and treated with a hot pressure wash by Standley Lake Regional Park staff prior tolaunch.

Other watercraft/equipment also requires inspection/washing/tagging/quarantine based onvarious conditions, such as history of use of the boat on other waters, time of year, broken tag,etc.

Staff may turn away any boat that does not meet these regulations. Boats that arecontaminated will be confined for additional cleaning/decontamination and notification to Stateofficials.

Only non-aquatic bait will be permitted for fishing. Aquatic bait (minnows, leeches, frogs, etc.)is NOT permitted at Standley Lake Regional Park.

Violation of these regulations can result in fines and/or revocation of permit privileges.

You may request a “double-tag” for any reason. We highly suggest you ask for a “double-tag” if you are going to do any maintenance or waxing on your boat.

Broken tags will result in a required spray and quarantine as outlined above. No Exceptions!

It is your responsibility to know these protocols, rules and regulations.

EMISSION TESTS

Standley Lake

During the 2018 season, the City of Westminster requires a mandatory

emissions/engine check-up for all permitted motor boats with gasoline

engines. It is very important to demonstrate to the non-boating public

that measures are being taken to ensure the excellent water quality at

Standley Lake.

Five boat dealers have volunteered their time to inspect boats and

engines on a complimentary (no charge) basis. They will be checking

engines for oil and gas leaks, and other contaminants that may interfere

with the water quality at Standley Lake.

All season permitted boats with gasoline engines using Standley Lake

must have an emission sticker by Friday, June 1, 2018. Boats without

an emission sticker will not be allowed access to Standley Lake starting Saturday, June 2, 2018.

It is best to have your boat inspected as early as possible to avoid delays or risk missing the June 2nd

deadline. The following boat dealers are authorized to perform these inspections:

Best Marine Tommy’s Nelson Motor Sports

12098 West 50th Place 12900 W 43rd Dr 720-270-7529

Staff is currently scheduling 2018 on-site emissions testing and will email

permit holders with dates and times that inspections will be completed at the

lake. You may also take your boat to any of the listed dealers to have your

emissions testing completed.

Standley Lake Park: Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a state park?

No. Standley Lake is a regional park. Any fees associated with a state park do not apply at Standley Lake.

Who owns the lake?

Standley Lake Regional Park is owned and operated by the City of Westminster. Westminster, the cities of

Thornton and Northglenn, and the Farmers Irrigation and Reservoir Company (FRICO) own the water rights.

Why is swimming not allowed?

Standley Lake is a drinking water supply for three cities, so due to water quality concerns, no swimming or wading

is allowed. This regulation was agreed upon in 1992 and is outlined in the intergovernmental agreement which was

signed by the City of Westminster, City of Thornton, City of Northglenn and FRICO (Farmer’s Reservoir and

Irrigation Company).

Why are there people allowed in the water when they are water skiing or tubing?

Because the intergovernmental agreement allows for water skiing and tubing, water contact is allowed only for the

purpose of entering or exiting your boat while actively skiing or tubing. This rule is strictly enforced by park staff.

When is the park open?

Standley Lake Regional Park is open year round. The hours during the summer (May 1 to September 30) are sunrise

to sunset for walk-in access and 6:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. for those who drive in. Winter (October 1 to April 30) hours are

sunrise to sunset for those who walk in and 7:30 a.m. to one hour before sunset for drive-in access.

Can you fish or boat at night?

No. Due to current Aquatic Nuisance Species Program regulations (set forth in 2007 by the City of Westminster

Water Quality Department), night fishing and/or boating is no longer allowed.

Are jet skis allowed?

Due to the intergovernmental agreement between the cities of Westminster, Thornton, and Northglenn, jet skis

are not allowed on Standley Lake.

Who determines the quarantine period for the ANS program?

The ANS protocols were instituted by the Westminster Water Quality Department. Standley Lake rangers are

required to enforce these protocols, failure to do so, would result in the employee’s dismissal.

Why are the rules so strict?

Standley Lake staff is responsible for enforcing the rules, regulations and protocols set forth by the City of

Westminster as well as enforcing the stipulations set forth by the intergovernmental agreement. As stated by that

agreement, “the protection of water quality shall continue to be the top priority and, under this agreement, the

Cities have the right to terminate any recreation activity if it impacts water quality”. Standley Lake staff enforces

the rules and regulations to ensure that the lake remains open for future recreational opportunities.

Any Questions? Please call Standley Lake at (303) 425-1097 and ask to speak with a full time ranger.
