Making Boating Season Environmentally Friendly

Learn how the the Baltimore Boating Center has been working to clean up the waterways around its marina with BMP’s “Marina Kit.” The kit comes with a 12″ SNOUT® and a Bio-Skirt® to help waterfront facilities clean up their most troublesome pollutants—trash and oil. The SNOUT will be either a 12F for box type structures or an NP1218R for 18″ inside diameter round structures. The SNOUT is simple–it acts as a baffle. When installed in a sump catch basin, it skims the floatable trash off of the surface and allows heavier materials to sink to the bottom. The Bio-Skirt is a floating skirted-boom which attaches to the SNOUT to target hydrocarbons, like emulsified oils and PAH’s.
