Thought I would share this Notice to Mariners (NTM)

Keep our water clean, pump don't dump

Vancouver Park Board is offering free pump out services to boaters at Burrard & Heather Civic Marinas of False Creek in order to #KeepItClean. Please forward their message to your boating friends!

As we cruise into the much-awaited summer season, the Vancouver Park Board has launched a water quality campaign designed to remind boaters, dog owners and beach goers to keep Vancouver's water clean for the health, safety and enjoyment of everyone.

Vancouver Park Board is doing its part to reduce boat sewage, a source of fecal bacteria in False Creek. You will see reminders to keep our water clean on social media, signs, banners and postcards around Vancouver in the next days.

In addition, the Board now offers free pump-out services to all pleasure craft in our waters at Board operated civic marinas (Burrard and Heather Civic Marinas). The service was previously free to marina members, but is now available to the general public to keep our water clean.

Free pump-out service:
• Burrard Civic Marina
• Heather Civic Marina

Available for pump-outs:
• 7 am to 6 pm (May long weekend to Labour Day long weekend)
• 7 am to 4 pm (Labour Day long weekend to May long weekend)

Visit http://vancouver.ca/streets-transportation/marinas-and-amenities.aspx for more information. Remind your friends on social media to keep our water clean by using #KeepItClean.
