Congratulations to Leschi, Lakewood, and Twin Bridges Marina who were recently recertified as part of Washington’s Clean Marina program.

 They surpassed the minimum pollution prevention requirements by a wide margin and successfully passed their Clean Marina program audits. These marinas have surpassed the federal and state legal requirements for incidental hazardous waste discharges. 

Created in 2005 as an expansion of the EnviroStars programClean Marina Washington helps boaters and marinas leave a healthy wake. Through this incentive-based certification program, marinas assess their

 operations and make improvements to better protect the environment. When they reach the qualification standards set by the Clean Marina program, they earn the right to fly the Clean Marina flag. There are 82 Washington marinas that have been certified as Clean Marinas through the program.
