The Clean Marina Washington program, created in 2005 as an expansion of the EnviroStars program, helps boaters and marinas leave a healthy wake. WSG, among other partners, was one of the first to oversee the implementation of the Clean Marina program in Washington state. In 2022, WSG took over leadership of the program with the goal to continue protecting Washington’s marine environments and publicly recognize marinas following environmentally-sound practices and procedures.
Through this incentive-based certification program, marinas assess their operations and make improvements to better protect the environment. When they reach the qualification standards set by the Clean Marina program, they earn the right to fly the Clean Marina flag. As of January 2023, there were 81 certified Clean Marinas in Washington.
