Key Stakeholder Recommendations
When the 2011 Legislature enacted the budget for Fiscal Year 2012, they directed
Ecology to consult with key stakeholders on statutory barriers to efficient and
effective water management.
Ecology will be gathering feedback from key stakeholders throughout the summer and
fall, and preparing a report to the Legislature by December 1.
The October 31, 2011 deadline has past for comments. Thank you to all that
provided your thoughts and suggestions.
