Clean Boating Regional Coordinators

Our Clean Boating coordinators are located in satellite regional offices throughout the state. Regional coordinators assist marinas with clean facility designations, implementing best management practices, getting re-certified and/or conducting site visits. They also provide information about grant funds for receiving new or replacement pump-out equipment. If you have any questions, please contact the regional coordinator in your county.
