This California program pays marina owners and other facility operators to run and maintain pumpout and dump stations that keep boater sewage out of waterways. It is for entities already operating such facilities on California waterways, and it requires a 25 percent cash or in-kind match. If you do not operate a pumpout, dump station, or floating restroom, do not bother applying.
