  1. IMPLEMENTATION SURVEY RESULTS -PROGRAMMATIC ACTIONS- Presentation to the WRIA 8 Salmon Recovery Council November 19, 2009

  2. DATA COLLECTION METHODS • Survey Administered in 2009 (2008 actions) • Same survey in 2008 (2006-2007 actions) • Polled WRIA 8 Jurisdictions • Did not poll other implementers • Survey asks: Is program being implemented? • Does not address: • Effectiveness of programs/actions • Overlap of programs between jurisdictions

  3. DATA ANALYSIS • May be problematic to compare raw numbers between 2008 & 2009 • Smaller number of respondents in 2008 • Results analyzed differently between years • 2008: Jurisdictions (by number) • 2009: Jurisdictions, Population, and Land Area (by percent) • 2009 analysis includes new element • Program Ranking

  4. Programmatic Actions • Stormwater-related Programs • Landscaping Programs • Lakeshore/Shoreline Programs • Water Quality-related Programs • Water Conservation Programs • Programs related to Forest Cover, Large Woody Debris, and Riparian Protection • Sample Question:

  5. LEGEND

  6. Stormwater-related Programs PROMOTE STORMWATER BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES (BMPs)

  7. Stormwater-related Programs PROMOTE LOW IMPACT DEVELOPMENT (LID)

  8. Stormwater-related Programs ENCOURAGE COMMERCIAL CAR WASHES / CAR WASH KITS

  9. Landscaping Programs PROVIDE A NATURAL YARD CARE PROGRAM

  10. Stormwater-related Programs PROMOTE GARDEN TOURS TO PROMOTE SALMON-FRIENDLY DESIGN

  11. Landscaping Programs OFFER EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS FOR LANDSCAPE DESIGNERS / CONTRACTORS ON SUSTAINABLE DESIGN

  17. Water Quality-related Programs OFFER EDUCATIONAL MATERIAL ADDRESSING WATER QUALITY

  18. Water Quality-related Programs PROVIDE EDUCATION ABOUT WATER QUALITY IMPACTS OF BOATS

  25. Land Use Actions • Regulatory, incentive based • Questions YES/NO, few open ended • Sample Questions:

  26. Land Use Actions UPDATED CRITICAL AREAS ORDINANCE (CAO) OR SENSITIVE AREAS ORDINANCE (SAO) - SINCE 2003

  27. Land Use Actions UPDATE PLANS for CAOs / SAOs

  28. Land Use Actions DESIGNATED CRITICAL AQUIFER RECHARGE AREAS (CARAs)
