Clean Vessel Act Celebrates 20th Anniversary Helping Recreational Boaters Keep Waters Clean
The U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service today announced $11.4 million in grants to 29 states under the Clean Vessel Act (CVA) grant program. Since its creation in 1992, the CVA program has provided funds to States to construct, replace, renovate, and maintain facilities that assist recreational boaters in properly disposing of on-board septic waste. The program also provides information and education on the importance, benefits, and availability of pumpouts. Funds for the CVA program are provided annually from the Sport Fish Restoration and Boating Trust Fund.
