New On-Line System Adds Boating Events
BOONE - The Iowa Department of Natural Resources' special events application system will begin accepting boating and water/ice events on March 8. The new system is designed to improve the efficiency and accuracy for scheduling special events on state land and water.
Iowa public waters host around 170 events each year. The event host must submit an application 30 days prior to the event. The new special events system will process all events within 30 days, and will notify the applicant of a potential scheduling conflict, if there is a confirmed event for the same resource. Beginning July 1, a non-refundable $25 application fee will be required.
The application and calendar is available at www.iowadnr.gov. Individuals filling out an application for the first time will need to create a user account. A tutorial is available under the FAQ link. The new system is designed to handle all special events for public lands. The system does not handle state park facility rentals.
Currently, the special events application system is handling all fishing tournaments, fishing clinics, bird dog field trials and snowmobile events. State park special event applications will likely be added later this spring. OHV event applications will also be available later this spring.
More than 2,000 special events are hosted each year by clubs, organizations or the general public on state managed lands or affects the natural resources of the state. The new special events application system will allow applicants to search for facilities to meet their needs, or to browse through a list of events.
The new special events electronic application system replaces the old forms that were written out and mailed in.
