The act permits and all but encourages states to establish "no
discharge zones." While untreated sewage, waste oil, etc should never
be discharged anyway- the concept of keeping grey water from showers,
dishwashing, etc in a separate holding tank will severely limit the
number of days most boaters can stay "on the hook".
Well, that ought to clear out the scenic vistas.
