Small boats are classified as recreational craft, fishing boats, or other small commercial craft with lengths less than 100 ft (31 m). A small boat basin is a place to obtain essential supplies such as food, fuel, and drinking water. Small boat basins provide direct access to each boat, adequate depth of water, parking, toilet facilities, technical services, shops, and other amenities. Small boat basins are found on coastlines, estuaries, lakes, and riverbanks. The increasing prosperity of the world population has resulted in an increased popularity of and need for small boat basins. The development of small boat basins is a concern to environmental groups and local residents because of the potential effects of these basins on the quality of rivers, lakes, estuaries, and ocean shorelines. This manual provides general guidance for incorporating environmental considerations into the planning, engineering, design, construction, operation, and maintenance of small boat basins. When these facilities are poorly planned and/or managed, they may pose a threat to the health of aquatic systems and may pose other environmental hazards.
