Nearly 3,000 Vessel and Island Pumpouts Completed during 2022!

Posted on November 17, 2022 Written by jasongarnett Leave a Comment

ENB directed tens of thousands of gallons of sewage from vessel and island waste tanks to sewage treatments plants during 2022.  Our fleet of boats covering the north shore of the Western Long Island Sound were busy all season thanks to the requests from boaters to responsibly dispose of on board waste.  The whole Long Island Sound is designated a No-Discharge Zone, and ENB encourages boaters to do the right thing to protect the environment by answering requests for pumpouts.  Thanks to all those who participated in our program this year, and as we get our hard working boats back in shape for 2023, please consider making a tax-deductible donation to our non-profit organization.  ENB must raise 25% of our budget each year to continue operating and providing free pumpouts to boaters along our large service area.  With ENB running each season, you can be sure marine sewage pollution is not the environmental concern it would be without our service.  Thank you for your support!

Over 2,000 Vessel Pumpouts Completed Already this Season!

Posted on July 7, 2022 Written by jasongarnett Leave a Comment

ENB has completed over 2,000 waste tank pumpouts on vessels in the western Sound so far this 2022 season, ensuring thousands of gallons of sewage is kept out to the marine environment.  Thank you boaters for using our mobile pumpout service for your waste tank needs along the north shore of the western Sound, from Bridgeport, CT to Locust Point, NY.  We plan on working our boats until the end of October.

This year we have had a spate of pump issues involving clogs in the hoses, disrupting our operations and taking a boat out of service.  Please remember not to flush anything down your marine toilet other than biodegradable toilet paper.  This will help us to keep our pumps and hoses from getting clogs.  Thank you for your attention to this matter, and thank you for helping us keep the Sound clean!

ENB’s Pumpout Program is now fully operational!

Posted on May 11, 2022 Written by jasongarnett Leave a Comment

From Bridgeport, CT to Locust Point, NY, ENB is now covering all of our regular service areas along the north shore of the Western Long Island Sound.  All of Long Island Sound is a No-Discharge Area, so our pumpout boats provide a free and easy service for boaters to do the right thing by offloading onboard sewage responsibly.  Our fleet of pumpout boats collect boat sewage off thousands of boats every season, thereby removing this threat of water degradation from coastal Connecticut and New York.  Thank you for helping us keep the Sound clean!
