Solutions to Pollution for Marinas, Boatsheds and Slipways
What is the Solutions to Pollution booklet?
This environmental information for marinas, boatsheds and slipways is part of the NSW EPA's Solutions to Pollution program. There are similar booklets for other business sectors. The booklets are available through the EPA's Pollution Line (Tel: 131 555).
Much of the information in this booklet was developed with the help of local government and relevant business and industry groups. Hornsby Shire Council, the Marina Association, the Boating Industry Association and the Boat Owners' Association have contributed significantly to this project.
The series provides information to help improve the environmental performance of the business sector. It supports the EPA's direction to promote the widespread adoption of cleaner production in NSW business and industry.
