CLEAN WATER











     At the forefront of our Table Rock Lake clean water initiative are numerous
     marinas that participate in the Missouri Clean Marina program. The Clean Ma-
     rina voluntary program encourages marina operators and recreational boaters
     to protect water quality by engaging in environmentally sound operating and
     maintenance procedures. The goal of this program is to improve and protect
     the water quality of Table Rock Lake.

                                     Participating in the Clean Marina Program
                                     helps our marinas to publicly demonstrate
                                     that they are taking actions in being good
                                     stewards of  water quality, including pro-
                                     moting  water  quality  stewardship to their
                                     patrons.

                                     The marinas are highly committed to pro-
                                     tecting our water resources and promoting
                                     environmentally sound boating practices in
                                     order to fulfill the necessary requirements
                                     to obtain and uphold  the  title “Missouri
                                     Clean Marina.” Each marina and its employ-
     ees pledge to instill positive change by using best management practices that
     will lead to reduction in the sources and impacts of non-point source pollution.
     As the initial step toward achieving the designation as a “Missouri Clean Ma-
     rina,” this marina pledges to keep Missouri’s water free of harmful chemicals,
     excess nutrients, and debris.

     In addition, the marinas identify opportunities and implement practices crucial
     to the controlling of potential pollution associated with activities taking place
     at this facility, enhancing the surrounding environment, and encouraging re-
     sponsible boating practices as recommended in  the Missouri Clean Marina
     Program.
