Although the final watershed plan was vetoed, the planning process produced several good reports and studies that greatly increased the scientific knowledge of water resources in WRIA 15. Additionally, many of the plan recommendations are also being implemented by various parties independent of the watershed planning process. For instance, actions related to water reuse, stormwater management, and water supply planning are being implemented by various governments in WRIA 15.
A separate watershed management plan was developed for Vashon Island by King County and the Vashon-Maury Island Groundwater Protection Committee, since the island is a hydrologically, geographically and politically separate area from the rest of WRIA 15. The Vashon-Maury Island Watershed plan is currently being implemented by the Vashon-Maury Island Groundwater Protection Committee and King County.
