One more month on the water at Camanche!

September is here, and boaters with a valid EBMUD band still have the rest of the month to enjoy Camanche before the 2026 boating season ends October 1.

As of September 2, new vessel inspections and red quarantine banding have ended for the season. Vessels must already have a valid EBMUD band to launch during the final month.

Have a valid, intact blue band from the 2026 inspection program? Keep it attached. Those bands will be honored when vessel launching resumes for the 2027 season.

Rental boats will continue to be available through the onsite concessionaire.

Thank you to everyone who has worked with us this season to help protect Camanche and the Mokelumne River watershed from invasive Golden Mussels.

Could there be lead in your tap water? 💧

It’s one of the water quality questions we hear most often.

There is no lead in the water produced by EBMUD treatment plants, but lead can sometimes enter drinking water through older household plumbing, fixtures or other materials.

So how do you know what’s in your water? And what can you do if you’re concerned?

We’re breaking it down in the latest Quick Drops. 💦
