Clean Vessel Assistance Program

Minimize
There is currently funding available and applications will be continuously accepted.

The Clean Vessel Assistance Program (CVAP) is a federally funded program that provides grants to marinas for the installation, renovation, and replacement of pumpout stations for the removal and disposal of recreational boater septic waste.

CVAP provides up to 75% of eligible project costs up to $60,000 to marinas, municipalities and not-for-profit organizations for installing or upgrading their pumpout boats and up to $35,000 for installing or upgrading stationary pumpout units. Additional CVAP grants are also available for the operation and maintenance of pumpout facilities, as well as educational projects that address the benefits, use, and availability of pumpout stations. For more information on CVAP Grant Opportunities, please visit the modules below.

CVAP grants are federally funded through the United States Fish & Wildlife Service and administered by New York State Environmental Facilities Corporation.

Clean Vessel Act funding is supported through the Sport Fish Restoration Fund and your purchase of fishing equipment and motor boat fuels.
