Section 33-6A-5

Pump-out stations at marinas.

An owner, operator, employee, or agent of a marina which does not provide a pump-out station or other approved means of properly disposing of sewage from recreational vessels, shall not, except in the case of safety emergency, permit a recreational vessel with a Type III marine sanitation device to moor, anchor, dock, or be stored at the marina. The department may, in cooperation with the Alabama Department of Economic and Community Affairs, Department of Public Health, and the Alabama Department of Environmental Management, establish by regulation in accordance with the Alabama Administrative Procedure Act, a program for financial assistance to marina facilities for the establishment of pump-out stations or other approved means of disposing of sewage from such vessels.
