Description In 2011, Washington adopted the Antifouling Paints Law to gradually phase out copper-based antifouling boat paints. We've been studying antifouling paints and preparing the third report to the Legislature on antifouling boat paints in Washington State. Learn about the law, and why it matters, and get an update on our work.
