Have Your Flares Expired?

If your flares have a manufacture date of 2018 or earlier, they have or will expire this year. Disposing of expired flares has been an ongoing dilemma for boaters across the country. You can’t light them, throw them in the water or into your household garbage. To help boaters dispose of expired flares in a safe and environmentally responsible manner CPS-ECP and selected CIL Dealers are hosting Safety Equipment Education and Flare Disposal Days.

Flares are only accepted directly from the recreational boating public. Flares will not be accepted from any companies, organizations, service clubs or municipalities.
