For the past 18 years, NAMEPA has been engaging with maritime businesses, educators, government, and the public to Save Our Seas by promoting sound environmental practices through events and community programming.
Nominations are now closed. Nominations will undergo evaluation by a panel of distinguished experts. The winners will be notified September 15th, and presented during NAMEPA’s Awards Dinner, on October 29th after NAMEPA’s Annual Conference.
