Trace International Marine Environment's stationary pumps offer valet pump-out services to marina tenant vessels.
The number of pump-out stations has not kept up with boat sales. Trace Marine will double the current total of 2,000 pump-out stations across the US.
As an added convenience, TIME will also offer drive-up, scheduled, and unscheduled pump-out services from marina-based boats.
America's Pride utilizes the best available technology allowing it to rapidly respond to and clean up oil spills in our Marinas, Ports, Harbors and Oceanways. Trace Marine recognizes that education about water pollution is most powerful when seen firsthand. Trace Marine has watercraft designed specifically to allow that to happen.
The innovation, simplicity, and practicality of TIME's proprietary Environmental Skimmer is unparalleled. Sweeping a path measuring over 50 feet across, the 50-foot catamaran skims shallow or deep waterways. The skimmer corals and consumes chemical pollutants, including oil, sheen, floating trash, debris, and particles, either collectively or targeted to a particular substance. The skimmer operated continually, stopping only to move the collected pollutants to a transfer vessel.
Oil spill sheen and plastic removal boat for marinas, ports, and harbors.
Gone are the days of ugly rusted barges moored near shore or in harbor, collecting waste then awaiting tow to deposit its contents elsewhere. Trace Marine's Environmental Waste Removal Barge (EWRB) solves large-scale waste problems quickly and cost-effectively.
The shallow draft barge/catamaran can store nearly 3,000 gallons of liquid waste, then cruise 12 knots or more to empty its cargo safely and securely. Remote islands, cruise ships, groups of vessels at sea, and resorts can have their waste quickly delivered to the mainland for immediate discharge.
