North Hero Marina received the “Clean Marina” Award from the Vermont Department of Environmental Conservation on June 2, 2011. The award comes through setting up a working partnership with representatives from the Vermont Small Business Development Center and the Environmental Assistance Office (EAO) and meeting the requirements of eight distinct environmental standards in the areas of waste stream reduction, increased recycling, reduction of energy consumption, use of environmentally friendly products and implementing Best Management Practices in areas such as fueling handling, boat handling and maintenance, painting and facility management.

We are proud to have met the levels of the environmental standards and thank all those from the EAO that worked with us to bring us to this level of environmental stewardship.     Jim Blandino & Mary Fitzpatrick
