Lower Limit for BWI Starts July 1st

A new lower limit for boating while intoxicated goes into effect next week in Iowa. The new limit will be set at .08 blood alcohol level, the same for driving or boating. According to KCCI, if you're charged, the penalty is two days in jail, a $1,000 fine and no boating license for a year. Over the last three summers 63% of Iowa's boating deaths involved alcohol.
