Senate Bill 513...No Discharge in the Chesapeake
For those of you who have boats large enough to accommodate a head that is equipped with a Type One discharge system, Senate Bill 513 and the accompanying House Bill 1257 will make those units illegal to use in Maryland's portion of the Chesapeake Bay.
Type I and Type II Marine Sanitation Devices do a much better job of treating waste than most municipal waste treatment plants located on the Chesapeake. For those of you who have smaller boats that have no head, use the bucket method and then a casual empty overboard, the maximum fine will be the same, Increased to $10,000. I urge all to email your senator or delegate and express your opposition to these bills. This link will show you your legislator. http://www.ksconline.net/ |

Isn't the Bay already a designated no discharge zone requiring no discharge and a CG approved holding tank?

The bills are a feel good for the legislature and not a legitimate way to help the bay. |

Basically they work this way. The Waste Treatment System macerates sewage and then uses electrically charged saltwater to kill bacteria. After neutralizing bacteria, treated waste water turns back into salt water, with no unnatural or harmful chemicals entering the environment. Raritan designed the treatment tank to force bactericide and bacteria into direct contact, effectively killing viruses and bacteria. |
