Registration is open for the BoatUS Foundation’s Turning the Tide Summit, scheduled for Dec. 6-9 in New Orleans. The summit will focus on exploring existing and emerging technologies and best practices for responsible and sustainable disposal of abandoned and derelict vessels, including topics pertaining to fiberglass and composite recycling, as well as subjects related to shrink wrap and other waste.
“No waterway community is exempt or safe from ADVs and boating-related waste,” Alanna Keating, the foundation’s director of outreach, said in a statement. “We all have the power to protect our waterways, and this summit is one significant way people can learn from each other, network and share solutions for taking real action that can benefit their communities for years to come.”
Attendees will have access to resources, panel discussions and keynote addresses on ADVs and sustainable disposal solutions for fiberglass, shrink wrap and other waste.
The cost to attend the four-day summit is $400 for general admission, $200 for nonprofit/government employees and $100 for students. Early general admission pricing of $350 is available through Sept. 1. Click here to register.
