Hull and deck cleaning, maintenance and repair are necessary activities that occur in most harbors and boat yards.  However, even routine activities can generate significant amounts of hazardous wastes.  These pages will provide boat owners and harbor staff with ideas and suggestions on how to perform these activities while minimizing the impacts on our marine environment.
