Section § 630

Explanation

If you run a marina or small boat harbor that supplies electricity to boats, you can install submeters to track how much electricity each boat uses. You can charge boat owners based on the electricity they actually use, as well as any costs associated with inspecting, testing, and registering these submeters.

The operator of every privately or publicly owned marina or small craft harbor, or facilities in connection therewith, furnishing electrical power to slips or berths for use aboard any vessel, may provide facilities for submetering to measure the electrical power actually used by or aboard each vessel and may base charges therefor upon that use including the actual cost of inspection, testing, and registration of submeters that may be charged by any authority having jurisdiction thereof.
