Wahkiakum County Shoreline Master Program: comprehensive update

Next steps: our decision

The Wahkiakum County proposed SMP will be compared to the requirements of the Shoreline Management Act and the Shoreline Master Program Guidelines. Based on the comparison, we will decide whether to:

• Approve the program as is.
• Approve with recommended changes.
• Send the proposed program back to the County with required changes to meet statutory and rule requirements. Recommended changes may also be included with the required changes.
