(WTAQ-WLUK) — Do you know of any abandoned boats along Great Lakes shorelines? A national foundation is working on creating a database to track these vessels and help facilitate their removal.
The nonprofit BoatUS Foundation for Boating Safety and Clean Water received a $10 million grant from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Maritime Debris Program. Part of that money will go toward the database.
The foundation has created a public feedback form to help determine and prioritize the type of information that will be included in the database. The form will be open until Dec. 17. Feedback is anonymous.
