DESCRIPTION
Prepared by the Task Committee on Marinas 2020 of the Ports and Harbors Committee of the Coasts, Oceans, Ports, and
Rivers Institute of ASCE.

Planning and Design Guidelines for Small Craft Harbors, third edition, provides new, state-of-the-art guidelines for the
planning, design, and development of small craft harbors. Much has changed in marina development and operation since
the previous edition, and new challenges confront those charged with providing access to oceans, lakes, and rivers by
recreational and commercial users. Construction and maintenance of marinas and waterfront facilities have not kept pace
with demand. Products are available now that are more predictable and cost-effective. And, increasingly, available
waterfront sites are often blighted or contaminated.

This Manual will assist those involved with waterfront development to produce facilities that are convenient, attractive, and
safe, as well as meeting aesthetic, social, and cultural goals. Topics include:
planning, environmental, and financial considerations

private, will refer frequently to the guidelines presented in this manual.
