Environmental Rules and Regulations
All marinas in the state must comply with the Federal Water Pollution Control act as amended (33USC.1251 et.seq: the Act) and Michigan Act 245, Public Acts 1929, as amended (“The Michigan Act”). These Acts require a permit for the run-off of storm water into lakes or rivers in the United States.
This act requires the institution of certain management practices that prevent the discharge of potential and/or real pollutants into Lake St. Clair/Clinton River. There are several penalties for non-compliance. In order to help us stay in compliance, we require the following:
Sanding -There will be no sanding of any sort carried out by an individual boat owner or their contractors unless it is done with a vacuum sander and properly disposed of.
Painting -There will be no spray painting work carried out by individual boat owners or their contractors, unless it is done in a designated building/shop at the marina. For painting performed outside, area under the boat must be tarped and applied with a roller or brush. Boats in close proximity of other vessels, etc. should be tented the area as well. Brushes, pans, rollers must be removed from the marina and disposed of properly. Paint residue in cans should be dried out before discarding.
Spraying - Absolutely no spray painting, fiberglass spraying, or any other chemical unless it is done in designated building/shop.
Oil Disposal - Proper precautions must be taken when performing mechanical work on any boat on land (ie servicing outdrives, a pan must be used to catch any oil drippings). Used engine oil and oil filters must be taken to the oil pick up point in the marina (located by the shop) or removed from the marina. You must NOT dispose of your oil on the ground, in a dumpster, drain or overboard. If you use “Outside Contractors”, you are responsible for the Contractor’s Compliance.
Winterization Chemicals - The use of ethylene glycol-based antifreeze for winterization is prohibited. You must use a non- toxic antifreeze. No winterization will be allowed inside any storage buildings
Disposal of Batteries - You may not dispose of batteries at the marina.
Bilge Water - Every boat must have a “BIO-SOK”, or a generic equivalent installed in its bilge in order to prevent oil or fuel from being pumped overboard causing a shine/sheen on marina waters. Surfactants may not be used, as they cause oil to sink to the bottom of the water.
Fuel Spill - The United States Coast Guard and the MDEQ must be notified any time a spill produces a sheen on the water. Please call the Marina Office (586) 469-6000 or Guard Shack (586) 469-0220 to report any spills. They in turn will initiate procedures to contain the spill and call necessary authorities. Every boat must be covered by an insurance policy which includes a fuel and oil spill endorsement in an amount sufficient to cover the cost of clean-up resulting from a leak or spill. Proof of such insurance shall be provided upon demand.
Bottom Washing -There will be NO power washing inside the marina by boat owners. All power washing must be performed by marina personnel at the hoist area.
Marine Heads - Michigan is a NO Discharge State. It is illegal to discharge raw and /or treated sewage from a watercraft within the waters of the State. DO NOT empty portable toilets in any of the bath houses or any drain on the marina property. Portable toilets/boat holding tanks must be emptied at the gas dock pump-out or other designated facility.
Pet and Fish Waste - It is illegal to dispose of pet and fish waste in the waters of the State. Please bag the waste and dispose in the dumpster.
