This is a joint application with the Washington State Department of Commerce and the Puget Sound National Estuary Program Stormwater and Habitat Strategic Initiative Leads to support local governments and tribes to advance the Governor’s statewide salmon recovery strategy through integration of salmon recovery plans into comprehensive plans and development regulations.

Grants are available to towns, cities, and counties both fully and partially planning under the Growth Management Act, and federally recognized tribes in Washington State. Applications that seek to protect and restore salmon habitat with long-range planning objectives are encouraged.

The Commerce-administered grants are deliverable-based, therefore funds will be reimbursed based on receiving the deliverables identified in the scope of work. Reimbursement is for actual costs incurred during the period of performance for the award.
