So, yesterday I visited the marina. After asking questions to the manager pinteresting facts came to be. The policies about pollution they have are pretty straight forward- they have second level sewage treatment (which is cleaner than Pearson college) and they do visual monitoring making sure that the boats don`t empty their garbage and sewage into the bay, that the motors are not leaking and the oils are not being changed. In case of someone going against the policies they would ask the boatkeepers to leave. They also commented that they do not have any relationship to the owner of the half sunken boat that is currently floating around the bay. However, they do not do any water testing and special reasearch in order to determine whether the pollution is present.
Today we went to the marina to get water samples, not expexting any visible pollution. However, during our short paddle by the marina we spotted a cigarette butt floating in the water. The surface was also partially covered with a slack of oil/gasoline.
