Since the Alabama Clean Vessel Act was passed in 1993, more than $500,000 in grants have been awarded to help marinas install boat sewage pumping stations to reduce sewage dumping and protect Alabama waters.

The stations are easy to use and conveniently located. Some stations offer special wand attachments to make pumping cleaner and more efficient. Marinas offering pumping stations are clearly marked with recognizable orange and white signs.
