OS 2.1 - Compile and distribute existing educational materials and information on Best Management Practices (BMPs) for proper management of oil fuel and other boat maintenance products. OS 2.2 - Compile and analyze information on all existing used vessel oil recycling locations. VM 1.1- Adopt the following criteria for siting of vessel moorings on Tomales Bay: VESSEL MOORING PROGRAM (VM) VM-1: Implement siting criteria and zones for vessel moorings in Tomales Bay based on a marine spatial planning approach. 1.

Parcels Under Private Ownership: No vessel moorings shall be allowed on tidelands and submerged lands under private ownership. 4. PRNS Submerged Lands: Other than as necessary for NPS administrative use, no moorings shall be allowed on the submerged lands owned by NPS on the western shore of Tomales Bay north of the northern boundary of Tomales Bay State Park at Duck Cove, as depicted in Figure 9: Natural Resource Protection Siting Criteria Map.
