IDNR Reminding of Boating Safety Ahead of Holiday Weekend

Illinois Department of Natural Resources is reminding boaters of boating safety for the Fourth of July holiday weekend.

 

IDNR Deputy Director Rachel Torbert reminds operators must have properly fitting life vests for all passengers and they are required for passengers under 13. 

 

 

Torbert says they are encouraging boat operators to remain sober on the water this weekend. She notes operating a boat under the influence is similar to drunk driving.

 

 

INDR conservation officers will be conducting boat safety checks this weekend.
