Environmental Management Scheme

It is Gold Coast City Marina’s philosophy to continually research new and improved methods of environmental control and recycling technologies. The protection of the environment and preservation of our rivers eco system is of paramount importance for the future growth and sustainability of the marine industry. For example, a rainwater harvesting system captures rain from our Dry Storage building’s massive roof area. The water is then stored in large above ground tanks and pumped under pressure to the numerous taps that service the outside hardstand areas. It is estimated that this scheme will saves some 180,000 litres of water per year. In November 2007, GCCM was awarded the Gold Coast City Council’s Environmental Achievement Award, highlighting our commitment to continued environmental improvement and eco sustainability.
