Comment. The recvcle system for cower washina has been out of service for several months accordina to
employees. The system is in the parking lot accross the street on a trailer. The capture device is
not installed. The wastewater from boat washing must be captured and handled appropriately.
Wastewater cannot be discharged into Motts Channel. A boat was being handwashed by a
private owner discharging to the eastern stormwater inlet with unknown chemicals. A mobile car
wash was operating near the entrance to the facility discharging to the street.
