Shoreline Armoring Implementation Strategy: Reducing armor impacts on Puget Sound shorelines
A 2021 report published by Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife and Washington Department of Natural Resources describes a regional strategy to reduce shoreline armoring in the Puget Sound region.
Summary
The Shoreline Armoring Implementation Strategy describes the regional outcomes necessary to accelerate progress towards the Vital Sign indicator target. It is a road map for aligning opportunities across agencies, programs, projects, and funding and to highlight the areas requiring the most attention in order to sustain and accelerate the progress achieved to-date. This Implementation Strategy identifies four strategies: incentives; regulatory; design and technical training; and planning. Enactment of this Implementation Strategy should increase the health of Puget Sound shores while ensuring people and their property are safe and able to continue enjoying Puget Sound beaches.
