LIVONIA, Mich. – Workshops on Michigan’s Clean Marina Program will be offered in September and October for marina owners, managers and employees wanting to learn more about protecting water quality and saving money by preventing pollution and waste, the Michigan Boating Industries Association said in a recent release.
Each workshop will feature an explanation of the steps to become a Michigan Clean Marina and how to maintain the designation; a chapter-by-chapter review of the Michigan Clean Marina Guidebook; and a description of the benefits to marinas and harbors that receive the Michigan Clean Marina designation.
