The problem has steadily decreased and we have taken preventive measures to reduce the number of vessels. Amnesty days have been developed and are held on a yearly basis allowing residents to dispose of vessels free of charge at County transfer stations. We have also begun harbor cleanups that have resulted in the removal of many abandoned vessels prior to them being classified as derelict vessels. This saves grant funding. The need is still great in Monroe County.
