More Meetings Coming up on Puget Sound Partnership


Got pinged from the Beach Naturalists today on these upcoming meetings.



The Puget Sound Partnership Needs Your Input By March 21


The Puget Sound Partnership will develop an Action Agenda by September 2008 that establishes science-based goals, enchmarks and actions to achieve recovery and protection of Puget Sound by 2020. Your input on what should be included in the Action Agenda is essential to ensure the Partnership develops a bold plan for the Sound. If you were unable to attend one of the community conversations held in late February and early March, please submit your comments on the questions below via People For Puget Sound at http://www.pugetsound.org/primary/act/action/forms/psp_feedback.
