Oakville received top honours as the first municipal marina in Ontario to achieve the Clean Marine Partnership’s Five Green Leaf Anchor Diamond rating for its Clean Marine program and overall operation of Oakville and Bronte harbours.
Boating Ontario, along with more than 20 marine industry professionals from the Ontario boater and angler associations formed the Clean Marine Partnership in 2001 to develop a voluntary program of environmental best practices for the marine industry. To be recognized, each marina must pass a comprehensive environmental audit to ensure compliance with program standards outlined in the Clean Marine Operations handbook, including fueling and waste oil, recycling, and energy conservation.
