Environmental improvements
Water-Loo is the name given to Oak Harbor Marina's anchored barge with pumpout/dump station and twin restroom. In 1995 a combined total of 1,700 pumpouts were done. An estimated total 40,000 gallons of boat sewage was collected from both the barge and fuel dock, an average of 23.5 gallons per boat. Currently, the sewage goes into a city truck, which transports it to the sewer plant without charge.[6]
