The Federal Oil Pollution Act of 1990 was passed by
Congress to prevent further oil spills from occurring in the

The Federal Water Pollution Control Act prohibits

stating the following:
DISCHARGE OF OIL PROHIBITED
The Federal Water Pollution Control Act prohibits the discharge
of oil or oily waste into or upon the navigable waters of the United
States or the waters of the contiguous zone if such discharge
causes a film or sheen upon or discoloration of the surface of the
water or causes a sludge or emulsion beneath the surface of the
water. Violators are subject to a penalty of $10,000.
PAINTS
As a yacht owner, you are responsible for the
environmental regulations that may govern the use of
antifouling paint. If your yacht is kept in water where
marine growth is a problem, the use of antifouling paint
may reduce the growth rate. Regulations may vary from
state to state. Contact your local and state boating
authorities for specific information.
CLEANING AGENTS
As a yacht owner, you are responsible for the
environmental regulations that may govern the use of
cleaning agents. Use household cleaners sparingly
and never discharge them into waterways. Do not
mix cleaners, and be sure to use plenty of ventilation
in enclosed areas. Avoid using chlorine, solvents and
products that contain phosphates, as well as non-
biodegradable or petroleum-based products. Regulations
may vary from state to state. Contact your local and state
boating authorities for specific information.
EXHAUST EMISSIONS
As a yacht owner, you are responsible for the exhaust
emissions from your yacht. Increased exhaust
(hydrocarbon) emissions, which are regulated by the
EPA, pollute the water and air. Contact your dealer and
the engine manufacturer for more information. Additional
restrictions may apply and vary from state to state.
Contact your local and state boating authorities for
