The Clean Vessel Act Grant Program, authorized by the Clean Vessel Act of 1992, offers vital funding to all 50 U.S. States, the District of Columbia, Commonwealths, and territories. This grant’s core purpose is to enable these entities to construct, renovate, operate, and effectively maintain pumpout stations and waste reception facilities specifically designed for recreational boaters. Furthermore, a key component involves educating the boating community about the proper use, benefits, and convenient availability of these critical facilities. By supporting this infrastructure and promoting awareness, the program actively works to prevent the discharge of sewage from recreational vessels, thereby safeguarding water quality and promoting environmental stewardship across American waterways and ensuring sustainable boating practices.
