• Description:
  The Delaware Clean Marina Initiative seeks to promote clean water and air by providing technical advice and educational material to marina operators and boaters. The goal is to encourage informed decision-making that leads to a reduction in boating-related pollution. This guidebook, a 3-ring binder, provides an overview of actions that boating industry professionals can take to protect water and air quality. It is written for managers of full service marinas with boatyards. The recommendations are equally applicable to marinas with limited services, independent boatyards, full-service boat dealers, and marine contractors. The guidebook provides advice on the following topics: siting considerations, marina design and maintenance, stormwater management, vessel maintenance and repair, petroleum control, sewage handling, waste containment and disposal, laws and regulations, and boater education. Included are Clean Boating Tip Sheets for distribution to boaters, and details on how to be officially recognized as a Delaware Clean Marina and the associated benefits.
