The Virginia Clean Marina flag can be found at www.virginiacleanmarina.com.
"The Virginia Clean Marina Program promotes the voluntary adoption of measures that prevent or reduce pollution from traditional and non-traditional marinas, boatyards and recreational boats. Marina operators that adopt these measures are
designated as "Virginia Clean Marinas."
If I am not mistaken the programme was launched in 2001; as could be expected, it awards flags to successful applicants. See a very large logo here, featuring a compass rose (as they use in nearby Maryland, for instance): www.midatlanticmarinegroup.com/Severn/VA%20Clean%20Marina%20Logo.jpg.
Compass rose of eight points (large cardinal points plus four smaller ones) in two colours, blue and yellow; surrounded by program name in blue 'VIRGINIA / CLEAN MARINA' with large blue dots between the words. Also found at www.deq.virginia.gov/p2/images/cmlogo.gif.
Now the flags - two different ones appear on this page (York County News Release 2008-115): www.yorkcounty.gov/publicinfo/pr2008/2008-115.pdf. One is a rectangular flag, white, with the name & dots in blue - exactly like the logo.

Another flag - or a variant - appears on p. 6 of this file: www.deq.virginia.gov/coastal/documents/magss02.pdf. White rectangular flag with name and dots in dark blue (possibly not significant) but in addition a yellow ring (blue holding lines, I believe) surrounding the logo (photo by H. Bresee). It also appears here: www.hqda.army.mil/ACSIM/env/cbi/newletters/cbreview/06_Summer.pdf.

One flag is a tapering swallowtail, white, bearing above logo but with the name & dots in grey. Of course there is an operational difference between a burgee and a flag used on land but I have no idea whether the yellow ring means something - added for better visibility perhaps, or is it simply the present version?
