Short Description

In the spring of 1997, the Washington State Department of Ecology selected boatyards and marinas as the first agency-wide single industry campaign. All media programs dedicated resources to a multi-disciplinary team lead by a representative of the Water Quality Program. The team was further strengthened by participation from local government, Northwest Marine Trade Association, Puget Soundkeeper Alliance, and tribal representatives. Compliance assistance with the newly reissued National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit was extended to the permitted boatyards. Educational outreach and technical assistance was provided to marinas throughout the state. This joing effort was christened the "Ship Shape" campaign. All 130 boatyards and 200 marinas in Washington State received on-site visits.
