Our Commitment
Vancouver Marina is fully committed to the conservation and preservation of our natural marine environment. We have always been proactive with our environmental responsibilities and initiatives. We are continually amazed by the diversity of wildlife here on the Fraser River, and in the context of our urban setting, we understand the need to do everything we can to protect and preserve it.
Environmental Highlights
Vancouver Marina places an emphasis on several areas of environmental concern including:
- recycling and compost
- specialized waste management (including oil products and hazardous waste)
- yard and storm water management
- extensive spill protection procedures + training
We take great care to dispose of all waste and recycled materials separately, even if it means sorting items such as glass, steal, and aluminum by hand. We have dedicated disposal facilities for:
- old gas and diesel fuel
- fuel and oil filters
- absorbent products
- cardboard
- compost
- miscellaneous hazardous waste
