Public Service

The Public Service Award was established in 1985 as a way to positively reinforce safe boating practices, especially in advertising and the media. Nominations can be made by anyone, then must be approved by NASBLA. Awards are presented throughout the year by the boating law administrator from the state in which the recipient lives.
