Restoration Projects

Restoration Projects are funded in three ways:

1. Projects are paid for by the responsible party. Link to list of projects paid for directly.

2. Projects are paid for by money which has been deposited by the responsible party into sub-accounts of the Coastal Protection Account (CPA).  Link to projects paid for by the CPA.

The four sub-accounts are as follows:

• South Puget Sound/Hood Canal
• North Puget Sound/Strait of Juan de Fuca
• Columbia River/Outer Coast
• Special Projects

3. Projects are also funded from an account in which spill penalties are deposited. The money from this account is used to supplement the sub-accounts listed above.

Funding was provided by Coastal Protection Fund for the acquisition of 450 acres of tidelands in south Fidalgo Bay (Skagit County, adjacent to Padilla Bay).
